Chapter 1029: Chapter 999: Closing In Step by Step
Even without using essence force, Chen Fei’s physical strength alone was also extraordinary.
Simply using the method of harnessing energy as he did in the Body Tempering stage, Stepping on Snow Without Leaving a Trace was just basic operation.
With a single step, he covered miles, and although it was much slower than flying, it was indeed much quieter.
In the blink of an eye, a day had passed, and Chen Fei remained unharmed, encountering no members of the alien races.
Whenever Indestructible Vision issued a warning, even if it was just the presence of someone in the Sun Moon Realm ahead, Chen Fei would try his best to avoid them.
Eliminating members of the Ice Race and the Evil Clans who were in the Sun Moon Realm was easy, but it would attract some attention.
Now, as the encirclement steadily tightened, unless avoiding them meant taking a significant detour, Chen Fei always chose to evade.
Alternatively, he would wait in place until the alien races ahead had disappeared before continuing forward.
Using this method, Chen Fei had traversed nearly twenty thousand miles in one day.
And as he moved further away from Pushan City, the threats emanating from the direction of Jiguang City grew increasingly serious.
Clearly, the real test was there.
How to avoid the Rule Integration Realm was a problem Chen Fei needed to consider.
The second day, the third day, the fourth day, and the fifth day, just like the first day, Chen Fei had been trying to avoid conflicts.
Adhering to this principle, although he couldn’t cover twenty thousand miles like on the first day, including the first day’s journey, Chen Fei had already traveled eighty thousand miles.
By this point, Indestructible Vision had essentially sensed that members of the Ice Race and the Evil Clans in the Rule Integration Realm were lying in ambush, about twenty to thirty thousand miles ahead.
From what Chen Fei knew, the sensing range of someone in the Rule Integration Realm was extremely wide, the clear range alone was about a thousand miles, and the vague sensing range reached nearly two thousand miles.
If a slightly larger battle took place within two thousand miles, a Rule Integration Realm practitioner could immediately notice it.
Chen Fei stood on the top of a tree, glancing back in the direction of Pushan City.
Lately, the frequency of encounters with the Ice Race and the Evil Clans in the signals from Indestructible Vision had been growing increasingly frequent.
Clearly, the armies of both clans were accelerating from the rear, and any human race they detected along the way was being besieged.
Within the armies of both clans, there would naturally be real powerhouses in command, and together with formations comprised of the Mountain Sea Realm and Sun Moon Realm, even those in the Rule Integration Realm would have to retreat a great distance.
With the army drawing near, other members of the Ice Race and the Evil Clans roaming this land boundary naturally moved toward the direction of Jiguang City.
It was precisely because of this that Chen Fei felt the frequency of encountering alien races was getting higher, as the encirclement steadily shrank.
“The Ice Race or the Evil Clans in the Rule Integration Realm aren’t likely to cluster together. If sneaking past doesn’t work, I must be ready for a direct confrontation,” thoughts flickered through Chen Fei’s mind.
The gap between the Sun Moon Realm and the Rule Integration Realm was too vast, nowadays Chen Fei was in a league of his own within the Sun Moon Realm, a full-force blow could even reach the attack strength of the Rule Integration Realm.
But that was the result of Chen Fei’s all-out effort, whereas a regular attack from a Rule Integration Realm practitioner reached that level of intensity directly, which highlighted the difference.
One was going all out, while the other was merely a casual strike; there was no basis for comparison.
Not to mention, once a Rule Integration Realm practitioner got a bit serious, the intensity of their attack would continue to rise, and the situation would immediately flip.
“To contend against the Rule Integration Realm, either I must break through, and the current situation will be immediately resolved. Alternatively, cultivating Celestial Suppression to Great Completion can also stand against the Rule Integration Realm.”
Chen Fei looked at the panel, where Celestial Suppression was nearly reaching Great Completion, hoping it would come from this martial arts technique.
The Yuan Clan’s Celestial Suppression technique was indeed absurd and unreasonable.
Cultivated to the peak, it lets you battle beyond your tier.
Whether you could win the fight was another question, but at least it provided you with the foundation to fight beyond your tier.
Otherwise, a normal practitioner in the Sun Moon Realm absolutely couldn’t contend against the Rule Integration Realm, hence there was a fundamental huge difference between their realms.
In the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm, one controlled a fragment of rules, and a fragment of rules was composed of one hundred and eight rule particles.
You, at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, controlling only those few rule particles, how could you possibly be compared with a Rule Integration Realm practitioner.
Chen Fei shifted his gaze from the panel, if time permitted, he’d attempt to break through to the Rule Integration Realm before rushing past the interception.
If there was not enough time, he must first cultivate Celestial Suppression to Great Completion.
And according to the current progress, reaching Great Completion in Celestial Suppression would take just a day or two, which was almost the same as Chen Fei had previously estimated.
On the sixth day, from morning to evening, Chen Fei did not seek to rush his journey, as the closer he got, the stronger the warnings from Indestructible Vision became.
Chen Fei suspected that those in the Rule Integration Realm might have unique treasures specifically designed to detect any lifeforms nearing them.
Or it might be that Chen Fei was particularly high up on the Ice Race and Evil Clans’ hit list.
Chen Fei had anticipated this, after all, if a similar prodigious cultivator emerged among the Ice Race or the Evil Clans, the human race would definitely think of swiftly eliminating them.
Chen Fei had understood this, hence he had chosen to hide inside the Qiankun Mansion and not emerge.
If it hadn’t been for the current unforeseen situation, Chen Fei would have directly broken through to the Rule Integration Realm inside the Qiankun Mansion, actually concluding his seclusion and cultivation.
As Chen Fei approached a hillside and had just stepped on it, his eyebrows couldn’t help but slightly furrow.
Indestructible Vision was trembling with danger approaching, and Chen Fei also sensed about ten auras of the Sun Moon Realm several hundred miles away.
Chen Fei frowned because he had already encountered these alien races just a moment ago and had deliberately avoided them, but he hadn’t expected to run into them so soon again.
The most crucial thing was, Chen Fei realized that the enemy had turned directly towards him and charged in his direction.
“Could it be some unique treasure or mystical treasure?”
A trace of doubt flashed through Chen Fei’s mind. He lightly stepped on the hillside with his right foot, and his body had already appeared several miles away, and he started running irregularly, trying to shake off the alien race chasing him.
But during their second close encounter, it seemed that the unique treasure in the enemy’s hand had picked up on Chen Fei’s trace.
No matter how Chen Fei changed directions, even if he could initially shake them off, the moment Chen Fei slightly paused, the enemy could still locate him.
Following this trend, Chen Fei estimated it would take him more than an hour to completely shake off the pursuer.
After all, during this process, Chen Fei would still encounter other alien race teams, which he had to avoid.
A short time later, Chen Fei could no longer sense the aura of the alien race behind him, but the “Indestructible Vision” trembled slightly, clearly indicating the threat was far from eliminated.
Chen Fei leaped over a river, then suddenly changed expression and looked up ahead.
All he could see were tall trees, but his senses told him that two familiar auras were about 300 miles away, and both individuals were currently ensnared in a besiegement.
300 miles away.
Hua Zhichun held the Earth Splitting Saber, his figure amidst a fog, fiercely battling with the Ice Race at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm surrounding him.
In the central position, Kuang Xingfeng’s forehead was bulging with veins as he constantly drew the surrounding Ice Race into his illusion.
Hua Zhichun, the Challenger of the Age Tower, possessed battle strength at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, capable of standing out even among the alien races at the same stage.
Kuang Xingfeng had recently broken through to the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm, deeply experienced, and though it had only been a few months since his breakthrough, he was now able to compete with ordinary pinnacle warriors of the Sun Moon Realm, even defeating them in battle.
With Hua Zhichun leading the attack and Kuang Xingfeng confusing opponents with illusions, the two together could unleash overwhelming power. Ordinary pinnacle warriors of the Sun Moon Realm were no match for them.
Yet regrettably, there were currently three pinnacles of the Sun Moon Realm in front of them, with four others from the later stages intermittently harassing them. Alone, Hua Zhichun and Kuang Xingfeng could at most barely maintain their defense.
Now, they couldn’t even maintain that, as Kuang Xingfeng’s illusion was about to be shattered.
Once the illusion broke, without power to shield Hua Zhichun, their demise would occur within a few moves.
“Don’t worry about me; you run first. With your power, there’s a good chance you can get away!” Kuang Xingfeng’s voice reached Hua Zhichun’s ears.
From their random appearance in Pushan City, unable to be rescued by those from the Rule Integration Realm, trying to survive in the wild for days, Kuang Xingfeng had already despaired.
No chance left, afraid they’d never make it to Jiguang City.
The seven Ice Race had been chasing them for an entire day. Although they had been tricked by Kuang Xingfeng’s illusions a few times, his illusions gradually became ineffective later on.
The Ice Race had recognized the identities of Kuang Xingfeng and Hua Zhichun, one a prodigy who could overcome higher stages, promising to start at mid-stage Rule Integration Realm in the future.
The other was the Challenger of the Age Tower, also a seed for the Rule Integration Realm.
Killing these two would bring them immensely rich rewards, so how could they let them go.
Due to their desire to claim the merits of killing the two alone, the seven Ice Race had been relentlessly pursuing Hua Zhichun and Kuang Xingfeng without sending any signals outward.
Otherwise, if intercepted by other kin, the most they would get was a shared spoils.
Upon hearing Kuang Xingfeng’s words, a bitter smile appeared on Hua Zhichun’s face.
As soon as they were encircled here by these Ice Race, all possible escape routes were blocked, giving them no chance to flee.
“Boom!”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
A tremor sounded; Kuang Xingfeng’s complexion turned pale, a mist of blood sprayed out, and his aura plummeted. The surrounding fog dissipated, revealing the two of them.
And in the moment the fog vanished, the three Ice Race at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm joined forces with a move that knocked Hua Zhichun from midair.
With the sound of splitting mountains, a huge crater formed on the ground where Hua Zhichun was severely wounded.
Hua Zhichun slapped the ground with his right hand and just disappeared from the spot, as two fierce attacks pierced through the area that he had occupied.
Another Ice Race at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, Sang Yi, flashed to stand before Kuang Xingfeng, the ice blade in his hand thrusting towards Kuang Xingfeng’s skull.
Kuang Xingfeng wanted to dodge, but his shattered illusion left him with no extra energy, forcing him to watch helplessly as the ice blade approached.
Suddenly, Sang Yi frowned, and his ice blade instantly slashed towards the rear.
A sword blade emerged from a space rift, clashing with Sang Yi’s ice blade.
The next moment, Sang Yi’s expression drastically changed, unable to control his ice blade as the sword blade pressed down on it, crashing into his body.
“Bang!”
Sang Yi’s body was directly shattered by Tremendous Strength, a huge part obliterated.
A figure stepped out of the space rift, it was Chen Fei who had sensed the familiar presence here and had specifically come to help.
Seeing Sang Yi was not dead, Chen Fei slightly moved the Qianyuan Sword in his hand, tracing an arc towards Sang Yi.
The space of the Return to Nothing Realm was too tight; Chen Fei teleported and attacked from a space rift, with most of his power forcibly absorbed by the rift.
Sang Yi’s eyes widened, his body suddenly turned snow-white, and using forbidden techniques, his shattered body swiftly recovered most of its form, his ice blade slashing towards the Qianyuan Sword.
“Boom!”
The Qianyuan Sword still pressed down on the ice blade, landing on Sang Yi. His body shuddered, his eyes filled with reluctance and disbelief, instantly exploding into a mist of blood.
