Chapter 461: Not Sealed
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Chen Fei suddenly recalled the Dragon-Elephant True Immortal from the past. The Dragon-Elephant True Immortal had already reached the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, but when it ca to the art of controlling the Dragon Elephant, it was a constant obsession.
Perhaps the Dragon-Elephant True Immortal from back then had sensed the subtle utility of controlling the Dragon Elephant. Despite the Master’s flawed cultivation technique, ultimately leading to incorrect progress.
However, even incorrect cultivation was still cultivation. The nature of controlling the Dragon Elephant dictated that as long as one practiced, there would be gains, albeit not reaching the pinnacle effect the technique should have.
Chen Fei suddenly felt so anticipation for the potential changes that might occur when he truly broke through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm after practicing the art of controlling the Dragon Elephant.
Previously, Chen Fei thought that as his cultivation advanced, the assistance provided by controlling the Dragon Elephant would diminish.
In the world of martial arts, this was often the case. When you reached a new realm, the assistance provided by your previous techniques would gradually diminish.
At this point, you had two choices: either innovate upon your existing techniques, constantly deducing and evolving them to forge your own path, albeit a difficult and slow one, requiring ti and experience.
Perhaps, while you were quietly deducing your techniques, others of the sa level as you had already advanced to higher realms.
Standing on the shoulders of giants, one could more easily see the distant landscapes.
Therefore, practicing other profound martial arts was actually the most efficient and safest path. After all, those advanced techniques had been practiced countless tis by predecessors and had undergone multiple refinents.
With their profound insights, those who had reached high realms could identify more issues from above. Just like Chen Fei at that mont, he had effortlessly created body-refining techniques for those at the Aperture Tempering realm.
He could even deduce several techniques for the Aperture Tempering realm.
This was what they called “seeing from a higher vantage point.”
During his visit to the Haiyue Cave, Chen Fei also had a thought in mind: to search for Combined Aperture Tempering realm techniques.
The Haiyue Cave was established by experts in the Mountain Sea Realm. Many treasures that appeared extraordinary to others were actually quite ordinary from the perspective of those in the Mountain Sea Realm.
The techniques of the Primordial Sword Sect had already reached their limit when it ca to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. As for how to cultivate at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, there might have been records during the peak period of the Primordial Sword Sect, but now, they were undoubtedly lost.
After all, even the Primordial Sword Scripture was damaged at the beginning, let alone the techniques for the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.
As the sun rose and set, ti passed gradually.
Inside the cave, Chen Fei’s aura grew stronger and stronger. In a trance, it seed that Chen Fei had transford into almost a Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert at that mont.
In so aspects, the two were extrely alike in their characteristics.
However, upon closer examination, one would discover that when compared to a true Combined Aperture Tempering realm practitioner, Chen Fei’s aura was significantly weaker, and the difference in elental energy was quite obvious.
“Crack!”
A crisp sound emanated from the demonic core, and a crack spread across its surface.
Chen Fei slowly opened his eyes, as if a lightning bolt illuminated the entire cave. He looked at the demonic core in front of him and reached out to catch it.
“Boom!”
A muffled sound, and the demonic core turned into powder, falling from Chen Fei’s fingertips.
Chen Fei was slightly surprised. He had only intended to grab the demonic core, but he had applied too much force and crushed it.
Evidently, the sudden increase in his physique had caused a slight deviation in his control over his own strength. Such a situation rarely occurred and only happened during rapid increases in power.
The Dragon Elephant’s dominance in his sea of consciousness continued to circulate, continuously feeding back perceptions of his physical strength. After fifteen minutes, Chen Fei stood up, his back straightened, and his muscles and bones rang out like thunder from within his body.
The sensation of strength filled every inch of Chen Fei’s body. Even though he had ntally prepared himself beforehand, when his physique truly reached this level, it still surprised him greatly.
Breaking the limits!
Chen Fei’s physical body had undoubtedly broken through the limits of the Aperture Tempering realm, reaching a new height. However, whether it had reached the standard of a Combined Aperture Tempering realm physical body, Chen Fei was not entirely sure.
Although Chen Fei had seen Combined Aperture Tempering realm practitioners and even witnessed their actions, it was all from a distance. He had no idea what kind of strength a Combined Aperture Tempering realm physical body possessed.
But the state displayed by Chen Fei’s physical body at this mont clearly exceeded the standard expected of the pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm.
In fact, Chen Fei’s physical body had been much stronger than other Aperture Tempering realm practitioners before, but its strength had still been within the range of the Aperture Tempering realm.
Chen Fei’s superior combat power, compared to other peak Aperture Tempering realm practitioners, wasn’t solely due to his physical body. His own elental cultivation was also a crucial factor.
However, at this mont, Chen Fei felt that the strength of his physical body alone might be enough to suppress the average peak Aperture Tempering realm practitioner.
Such strength seed sowhat inconceivable if it didn’t et the standards of a Combined Aperture Tempering realm physical body. After all, the true power of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm primarily relied on elental cultivation, with the physical body being a factor but not the key factor.
Chen Fei slowly clenched his fist, producing a muffled sound.
Inside his body, the Dragon Elephant’s Aperture had undergone so subtle changes compared to before, appearing even more resilient.
To refine other substances and strengthen oneself—this Dragon Elephant’s Aperture not only could gather Qi into the acupuncture points, aiding in the breakthrough to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, but it also seed to have such wonderful uses.
Now, what puzzled Chen Fei was what kind of substances the Dragon Elephant’s Aperture could absorb to strengthen his physique.
If in the future, Chen Fei could find a pile of natural treasures that the Dragon Elephant’s Aperture could absorb, would his physical body continue to strengthen indefinitely?
A faint smile appeared on Chen Fei’s lips as he moved swiftly, disappearing into the cave.
With such strength, his anticipation for the trip to the Haiyue Cave grew even greater. Even if there were no spirit materials for breaking the limits of his spiritual consciousness in the Haiyue Cave, Chen Fei could still prepare to break through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.
Having such physical conditions, the difficulty of breaking the limits of his spiritual consciousness had already decreased significantly. The dicinal materials or spirit materials for breaking the limits of his spiritual consciousness couldn’t be considered a lifesaver anymore; at most, they would be icing on the cake.
But even icing on the cake was a good thing. After all, there were many dangers involved in breaking through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, and if he could do it more smoothly, there was no reason to choose a riskier path.
Moreover, the Haiyue Cave possessed nurous treasures, and given Chen Fei’s current wealth, he didn’t have many high-grade elental stones. There was no reason to miss such a good opportunity.
Five days later, Chen Fei arrived at the Qingping Sea Region and saw the Haiyue Cave. Within several miles of the Haiyue Cave, it was exceptionally lively.
Due to the large number of people, several markets had been set up, and for martial practitioners, it felt like a grand event.
Chen Fei concealed his cultivation level, only revealing himself to be at the late stage of the Aperture Tempering realm to others. As for his physical strength, he didn’t really care whether he hid it or not.
Compared to the conspicuousness of elental realm, it was difficult to discern anything unusual about the physical body without actually using it. Therefore, Chen Fei didn’t need to hide the power of his physical body.
As ti drew near, many top forces within the Thousand Feathers Alliance began to appear.
On the third day before the opening of the Haiyue Cave, the Shadow Abyss Sect appeared, and Chen Fei deliberately approached to observe this force.
Compared to other martial practitioners, the aura of the Shadow Abyss Sect was colder and less human.
Apart from the Shadow Abyss Sect, the other top ten forces within the Thousand Feathers Alliance also made their appearances one by one. Among these forces, there were disciples listed on the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Ranking, and to prevent any accidents, they would be escorted here.
They didn’t mind battles among peers; in their view, it was all sharpening their skills. They were confident in this regard.
Without this confidence and broad perspective, they wouldn’t have reached their current positions.
However, if it ca to bullying the weak, they disagreed. Coming here, they were here to prevent such situations.
Ti passed swiftly, and the Haiyue Cave, which had remained quiet in mid-air, suddenly began to vibrate slightly.
The elental energy from all directions responded, and visible ripples spread through the air. Everyone present felt a slight weight in their bodies, making it difficult to mobilize their elental energy, and they couldn’t even sense the natural elental energy of the world.
The power of the spiritual artifact was clearly and imnsely displayed before them.
“Hum!”
The doors of the Haiyue Cave slowly opened, and an endless radiance emanated from within. A hundred slender beams of light shot up into the sky from the crowd.
Chen Fei lowered his head to look at the Haiyue Token in his hand, feeling a pulling force.
The people around him were surprised, as they hadn’t expected to have a Haiyue Token in their midst.
So people had a tinge of regret in their eyes; they were only at the advanced stage of the Aperture Tempering realm. If they had discovered this token earlier, perhaps it would have fallen into their hands.
But at this mont, the Haiyue Cave was already open, and there was no ti for further competition.
Chen Fei didn’t resist the force of the Haiyue Token. In the next mont, he disappeared from his original location and entered the Haiyue Cave.
A mont later, the doors of the Haiyue Cave slowly closed, and simultaneously, a massive water curtain appeared above the Haiyue Cave. A hundred points of light, representing each person’s aura, appeared on the water curtain.
Chen Fei opened his eyes and looked around, but everything was shrouded in darkness, and he couldn’t see anything. He also noticed that his aura had changed, becoming the modified aura from when he was on the Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix Ranking.
“A person is born unequal, today, I want to offer you a different kind of fairness!”
A powerful voice echoed from all directions, and in the next mont, a ssage appeared in Chen Fei’s mind. After absorbing this ssage, Chen Fei’s expression couldn’t help but change.
Everyone’s cultivation had been sealed, and they were all reduced to ordinary mortals.
To win within the cave mansion, one had to acquire martial arts techniques to practice. Talent, luck, and aptitude all played a role. To win, you needed to be lucky and progress in your cultivation quickly.
All the knowledge and techniques you had learned before were now inaccessible within the cave mansion, and you could only use the martial arts techniques and moves you acquired within the cave mansion.
Chen Fei was sowhat surprised; although the assessnt thods in the Haiyue Cave varied each ti, this mode of competition was the first ti he had encountered it.
Before he could fully comprehend the situation, a force enveloped him, causing the world to spin. When Chen Fei regained his senses and opened his eyes, he found himself standing in a dense forest.
In his mind, mories of all martial arts techniques had vanished, leaving him completely empty, and his physical body had beco that of an ordinary person.
Chen Fei glanced around, and in the distance, a glimr of light caught his attention.
However, Chen Fei didn’t rush towards it. Instead, he curiously clenched his fist.
Wasn’t it said that all cultivation was sealed?
At this mont, as Chen Fei breathed, a force began to ripple within his body.
Chen Fei’s eyes widened slightly.. The power of this seal had not affected the Haiyue Cave!
