Chapter 1233 1192: Sparring and Speculation

Since the opponent came to duel him with swords, Chen Fei didn't have the heart to use the Qi of Purple Firmament to bully him.

His palm moved slightly, and in an instant, the tips of his five fingers seemed to condense with an astonishingly sharp and fierce aura. That power formed into a sword light, remotely facing Duan Mingjun's attack, with a terrifying aura that could erupt at any moment.

"This guy has such formidable sword intent!" Fairy Tangh saw Chen Fei in action, her gaze moving toward his direction, and in the next second, her beautiful eyes were filled with intense shock.

Because her strength was not far inferior to Duan Mingjun and Long Yi, she could more easily feel the terror of the sword Qi that Chen Fei had now condensed...

In fact, to her, it seemed even 'Minor Heavenly Master' Duan Mingjun's sword Dao realm hadn't reached such a level!?

Fairy Tangh's expression changed once again, staring at Chen Fei intently, no, could it be?

At the same time, Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun's gaze towards Chen Fei was also filled with gravity and shock, murmuring, "Flawless Sword Intent?"

"What? Flawless Sword Intent!?"

It was like a sudden clap of thunder on flat ground.

Everyone who heard Duan Mingjun's murmur couldn't help but focus their eyes and their expressions changed drastically.

It's well-known that even Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun himself, one of the strongest sword cultivators of the younger generation in Earth Martial City, had not yet reached that realm and was just a step away. But this guy…

Only Long Yi looked as if it was natural, even chuckled as if feeling very pleased inside... If this guy wasn't such a freak, why else would he have such a different attitude towards him?

"Hoo~"

"Please enlighten me!"

At the same time, Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun took a deep breath, and with a loud shout, thousands of sword rays, enough to tear the air and leave shocking marks, gathered on his Peach Wood Sword, slashing out forward. That one sword seemed to penetrate the void and sever everything, in an instant, it seemed that nothing else could be seen in people's vision, only that one sword, became eternal!

"Minor Heavenly Master's sword is truly formidable!" People's eyes focused, extremely shocked, because this one sword seemed to make them feel the taste of despair and suffocation.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble…

At the same time, even the main structure of the Flower Fairy Building began to tremble.

Bang!

Yet at this moment, a strange pressure that no one could understand descended, and instantly, that terrifying, exaggerated momentum dissipated into nothingness.

Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun's sword shattered, the sword rays broke into stardust, dispersing into the air. At the same time, a thumb-sized white shadow was actually stopped in front of Duan Mingjun, the distance from his skin was so close that just a bit forward could easily kill him.

The gap seemed enormous.

"How is this possible!?" Fairy Tangh gaped, watching this scene in disbelief.

Not only her, but the shock on the faces of others was also notably evident.

Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun, one of the three greatest sword cultivators of the young generation in their Earth Martial City, and his combat power could even rank in the top ten overall, not far behind Brother Yi Long Yi, but now?

But now, with just one move, Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun was defeated? And it's even his specialty, sword Dao...

"How did you do it?" Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun stared intently at Chen Fei, asking.

Chen Fei smiled and raised his hand, and that invisible, formidable pressure suddenly appeared again inside the top floor. Cracks appeared on the ground, yet the people standing above were entirely unharmed.

"Did you see through it?" After doing all this, Chen Fei asked.

"…I don't understand." Minor Heavenly Master Duan Mingjun frowned. He had been practicing sword for years, but now Chen Fei's inexplicable actions made him feel entirely unfamiliar. Clearly, it's just sword Dao, but what is this aura, this sort of pressure?

Duan Mingjun felt bewildered inside.

"Then, do you know the name of the realm beyond Sword Intent?" Seeing Duan Mingjun's confusion, Chen Fei rephrased his question and asked.

"Sword Momentum?" Duan Mingjun frowned. He knew about Sword Momentum, but what does it have to do with Sword Momentum?

"Yes, as long as you know." Chen Fei nodded and said, "Actually it's very simple. My path is quite varied, not solely focused on Sword Dao alone, so I won't be overly distracted by concentrating solely on this path…"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but open their mouths wide, unsure how to describe their feelings. Such a terrifying sword Dao realm cultivation, and yet Chen Fei said he isn't devoted solely to this discipline?

What does this mean!?

But when they suddenly recalled earlier, Chen Fei drinking the whole 'Dongyang Fine Wine' in one gulp, they couldn't help but fall into silence again. If it were just an ordinary body, how could it withstand the intensity of Dongyang Fine Wine?

At the same time, Chen Fei continued to speak: "So I simplified my study of what I saw. My current sword Dao realm is at the Flawless Sword Intent level, and the next step is to break through to the Sword Momentum realm. And what is the Sword Momentum realm? I don't know, but literally, could Sword Momentum be understood as the might of the sword Dao?"

Listening to Chen Fei's words, even Duan Mingjun couldn't help but open his mouth wide, unable to speak for a long time. Because he really didn't expect Chen Fei to say such things... to put it simply, Chen Fei's understanding of sword Dao was paddling straight through word for word.

Sword momentum, sword momentum, how can you encompass and describe this realm, so that I may directly break through in this aspect?

"If it's just like this, merging sword intent with might and aura, is that then sword momentum?"

Duan Mingjun furrowed his brows and murmured.

"Hmm... why not try and see?" Chen Fei raised an eyebrow and said with a smile.

Duan Mingjun trembled all over, his eyes immediately focusing intensely.

"In fact, I personally think that sometimes it's unnecessary to overthink things, just try more often. Even if you fail, there's no real loss." Chen Fei smiled and said, "This is just some of my insights, for reference only."

Duan Mingjun was silent for a moment, then he stood up and bent deeply toward Chen Fei, saying, "If in the future I have the chance to advance further, Brother Chen, I owe you a great favor. Thank you."

After speaking, he bowed again, slowly retreated, and only turned to leave once he reached the stairs.

"Eh... never mind." Chen Fei originally wanted Duan Mingjun to wait; he wanted to ask about the mysterious tomb, but it was clear that after the guidance, Duan Mingjun had been touched, and his mind wasn't on that topic anymore. Asking would be in vain.

Thinking of this, Chen Fei shook his head helplessly and looked at Long Yi not far away, saying, "We should be going, right? If we're any later, we won't make it in time to report today."

"... Alright then." Long Yi looked at the weather outside and also stood up, saying, "Fairy Tangh, since it's like this, we'll take our leave."

"Why not stay a bit longer? At night, Huixin will return, and with candlelight and fine wine, I can introduce some beauties to Brother Chen." Fairy Tangh thought that Chen Fei was still angry with her and hurriedly said. Someone who could even defeat Duan Mingjun should have good relations built with.

"No need... I really have other matters to attend to. Also, Fairy Tangh, could you sell me some Dongyang Fine Wine from your Flower Fairy Building?"

Chen Fei shook his head, then suddenly asked.

"Dongyang Fine Wine?" Fairy Tangh was slightly startled and said, "Once this wine is brewed, all major powers want a share first, so our stock in the building is not much... Would ten bottles suffice?"

"Ten bottles?" Chen Fei furrowed his brows and said, "That's a bit little."

"I'll help you get some more when I return, probably around ten bottles." Long Yi interjected.

"That'll do." Chen Fei nodded.

"Hmm..." Just as Long Yi was about to nod, suddenly a stream of light flew from the sky, falling directly into his hand. Long Yi was slightly startled, and with a swipe of his hand, the stream of light turned into a Communication Talisman. He opened it to read.

Moments later, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Brother Chen, apologies, something in the fortress requires my immediate return. So, Haoran, you accompany Brother Chen for me."

"If you have matters to attend to, then there's no need. I can go by myself." Chen Fei said.

"Brother Fei, don't be polite. Wherever you're going, I'll take you." Sunx Haoran couldn't miss this chance to get closer to Chen Fei and quickly stood up.

"Why are you being polite with him? You're new to Earth Martial City, unfamiliar with the place. If you're late, you'd have to wait until tomorrow to report again, wouldn't you?"

Long Yi said.

"Then... alright." Chen Fei paused and then nodded, saying, "I need to go to the Floating Immortal Pavilion."

"Floating Immortal Pavilion?"

The crowd was momentarily stunned, not expecting that Chen Fei would want to go to the Floating Immortal Pavilion.

If the Floating Immortal Pavilion were outside Earth Martial City, it would be decent, but within the city, it's only second-tier, not comparable to the Celestial Master Hall, the Lan Family, the Flower Fairy Building, and far from the Four Great Powers.

Why go there? To buy something? But if it's to buy something, why refer to it as reporting?

The crowd was puzzled, but no one dared to ask.

Then Chen Fei spent some money to buy those ten bottles of Dongyang Fine Wine and went to the headquarters of the Floating Immortal Pavilion led by Sunx Haoran.

"Brother Fei, we're in the central area of Earth Martial City now, and if I remember correctly, the Floating Immortal Pavilion should be in the west. You'd need to use the Teleportation Formation to get there." Sunx Haoran said while leading the way.

"Mm."

Chen Fei nodded, then his face suddenly darkened.

"Come out, what's the point of hiding?" Chen Fei stopped in his tracks and said calmly, with a hint of coldness in his voice, causing Sunx Haoran, leading in front, to change his expression.

At the same time, from the darkness at the end of the street corner, several figures stepped out. Before, their Divine Sense was blatantly scanning Chen Fei, so it was easy for him to notice them.

Of course, it seemed they never intended to hide at all.

Judging by the looks of it, they were here for him?

Heh, Chen Fei chuckled coldly, harboring a bit of killing intent in his heart.
