Chapter 618: Smashing Through

Ye Qishan furrowed his brow, organized the documents in his hand, and walked towards another courtyard.

This was where Elder Fu Xuanye of the Thousand Yard Sect temporarily resided. Ye Qishan was at a loss on how to deal with the Primordial Sword Sect next, so he had to defer to Fu Xuanye for a decision.

“Senior, Ye Qishan requests an audience!” Ye Qishan respectfully called from outside the door.

“Come in,” Fu Xuanye’s voice rang in Ye Qishan’s ears, and the courtyard gate opened automatically.

Ye Qishan walked quietly into the courtyard and saw Fu Xuanye sitting cross-legged on a cushion, a hint of fragrance wafting from a small stove.

Transplanting Wood, a third-grade spiritual material, helps with the comprehension of techniques and the cultivation of elemental energy.

It is valuable and scarce.

Previously, the Thousand Yard Sect had a secret realm in the original sea area specifically for cultivating Transplanting Wood. But now, in the Sea Peak City, the future production of Transplanting Wood has become difficult to sustain.

Even if they took over the third-grade lower-grade secret realm here, given the richness of elemental energy in that realm, they could only cultivate Transplanting Wood in a small area.

“What’s the matter?” Fu Xuanye opened his eyes and looked at Ye Qishan.

“Pinnacle Peak Sect will arrive in the Sea Peak City in a month,” Ye Qishan said, placing a jade slip in his palm and offering it with both hands.

Fu Xuanye’s expression shifted slightly. With a gesture of his right hand, he caught the jade slip and delved his consciousness into it.

After a moment, Fu Xuanye withdrew his consciousness, his brows furrowed.

In theory, Pinnacle Peak Sect should already know that Thousand Yard Sect had settled in the Sea Peak City. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t choose the Sea Peak City again.

After all, the resources in the Sea Peak City were limited, originally only sufficient for the development of fourth-tier forces, reducing the assistance available to third-tier forces by a significant margin.

Although the situation with the Thousand Feathers Alliance was special, given Pinnacle Peak Sect’s strength, they actually had many other options for maritime territories, and the Sea Peak City was definitely not a prime choice.

But inexplicably, Pinnacle Peak Sect was coming, and their attitude towards the Primordial Sword Sect was overly favorable.

“I understand the situation. Hold off on any actions against the Primordial Sword Sect for now,” Fu Xuanye pondered for a moment before speaking solemnly.

With the current peculiar attitude of Pinnacle Peak Sect, Fu Xuanye decided to observe quietly for changes. Mainly because Pinnacle Peak Sect’s strength surpasses even that of Thousand Yard Sect, it was best to be cautious until their true intentions become clear.

“Yes!”

Ye Qishan nodded and respectfully withdrew from the courtyard.

“Primordial Sword Sect, Chen Fei.”

Fu Xuanye pondered, expecting that securing a portion of the third-grade secret realm would be almost certain, but he didn’t anticipate such a twist.

In Fu Xuanye’s view, with the strength of the Thousand Yard Sect, taking only a part of the third-grade lower-grade secret realm was already giving face to the Primordial Sword Sect.

If it weren’t for the talent displayed by Chen Fei, Thousand Yard Sect would probably have taken over the entire third-grade secret realm.

In the martial world, it’s survival of the fittest, and with Thousand Yard Sect being stronger, they naturally could take more. It’s not just Thousand Yard Sect; similar situations have been occurring in other maritime territories controlled by the Thousand Feathers Alliance recently.

But now, unexpectedly, Pinnacle Peak Sect has emerged, disrupting all their plans.

Fu Xuanye looked up at the sky and decided to investigate the Primordial Sword Sect tonight to see what makes them so special, enough to warrant such treatment from Pinnacle Peak Sect.

As the evening fell and the night grew quiet, Fu Xuanye’s figure appeared thirty miles away from the Primordial Sword Sect.

At this distance, with Fu Xuanye’s vision, he could already vaguely see the appearance of the Primordial Sword Sect’s mountain gate.

Fu Xuanye summoned a bronze clock about the size of a palm in his hand. As he infused it with elemental energy, a ripple like water passed over his body, causing his aura to suddenly drop to an undetectable level.

The Concealment Bell, a mid-grade magic treasure, an heirloom of the Thousand Yard Sect passed down through generations, was not only offensive and defensive but could also conceal one’s own aura. It was an extremely rare protective treasure.

During the previous siege by sea monsters, Fu Xuanye was able to lead many disciples of the Thousand Yard Sect to escape, and this Concealment Bell played a crucial role.

Fu Xuanye’s figure drifted forward silently. A quarter of an hour later, he was already within ten miles of the Primordial Sword Sect’s mountain gate. At this point, Fu Xuanye could clearly see the appearance of the Primordial Sword Sect’s mountain gate.

Furthermore, Fu Xuanye’s gaze had already locked onto the courtyard where Chen Fei resided.

Just as Fu Xuanye was about to continue approaching, his figure suddenly paused, and he looked up at the sky.

Just now, Fu Xuanye sensed three auras flashing past, heading straight into the Primordial Sword Sect’s mountain gate.

The formation of the Primordial Sword Sect’s mountain gate trembled slightly, but it was cleverly avoided by those three figures.

Fu Xuanye’s gaze fluctuated. Although those three auras flashed by in an instant, he still managed to catch a glimpse of their traces.

“Mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm, and there are three of them!”

Fu Xuanye was puzzled. From the looks of it, the newcomers were clearly hostile. When did the Primordial Sword Sect offend such enemies?

At this point, there was no need for further observation. If those three individuals were indeed hostile towards the Primordial Sword Sect, tonight would likely be the sect’s last night.

After some consideration, Fu Xuanye dared not meddle in this matter. With three mid-combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, it would be easy to destroy the Primordial Sword Sect, but the Thousand Yard Sect would be just as vulnerable.

Fu Xuanye concealed his aura and cautiously retreated. Compared to his arrival, he was now even more cautious, afraid of alerting the three individuals.

In the courtyard of the Primordial Sword Sect, Chen Fei sat cross-legged. Slowly opening his eyes, he looked ahead, finding no one there.

“Is this the first time you’ve been discovered by someone at the initial stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm? Have you hidden your cultivation?” A voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard, and three figures seemed to emerge from the void, their gazes fixed firmly on Chen Fei.

Chen Fei looked at the three individuals, almost identical in appearance and with nearly identical auras, with some surprise in his eyes.

It was Chen Fei’s first time encountering triplets, and their cultivation had reached the mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Judging from their aura, their comprehension of their own techniques was extremely high, comparable to the geniuses of top forces.

“Three of you came to my Primordial Sword Sect late at night. What is the matter?” Chen Fei said calmly.

“Just now, we asked you a question, and you didn’t answer. That’s really impolite!” Wu Hongxiao frowned.

“You trespassed into my Primordial Sword Sect, yet you accuse me of being impolite?” Chen Fei couldn’t help but smile wryly at Wu Hongxiao’s words.

“Brother, he won’t answer our questions properly anyway. Bring him back for interrogation, and everything will become clear,” Wu Hongxin said impatiently.

With a flicker of his figure, he appeared directly in front of Chen Fei, his iron hammer smashing towards Chen Fei’s head.

Although hammers are rarely used as weapons, those who can wield them are extraordinarily powerful.

Since birth, the Wu brothers had demonstrated exceptional physique and comprehension. After trying various weapons, they ultimately chose the iron hammer. They enjoyed the feeling of smashing their enemies into pulp.

As Wu Hongxin swung his iron hammer, immense pressure enveloped Chen Fei’s surroundings.

Wu Hongxin had exceptional control over his strength. When he struck, there was no wastage of extra force; it all focused on the opponent.

Because of this, despite the fierce attack, there was no visible damage in the courtyard.

Before sending them, Tan Chunyi had reminded them not to be careless.

While the Wu Hongxin trio listened, they were even more confident in their own strength. Although Chen Fei’s talent was astonishing, it only elevated him to the level of Min Yanlu.

In the span of ten years, at most, he could reach the mid-Combined Aperture Tempering realm and perhaps advance to the fourth stage at most, but reaching the fifth stage was impossible.

This was already the highest recognition; after all, they treated him as they would Min Yanlu. What more could he expect?

Even at the fourth stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, they didn’t need all three brothers to act together. One of them alone was enough to capture Chen Fei.

Before they arrived, their main concern was whether Chen Fei had other helpers. At this moment, Wu Hongxiao and Wu Hongzhong hadn’t acted because they were more vigilant against potential allies of Chen Fei rather than Chen Fei himself.

As Chen Fei watched Wu Hongxin’s attack, he extended his right hand, pushing the iron hammer aside and striking Wu Hongxin’s chest with a palm.

“Thunk!”

Accompanied by the crushing sound of bones and flesh, Wu Hongxin’s body involuntarily bent, a spray of blood mist escaping his lips. His eyes widened with shock and fear as he stared at Chen Fei.

Wu Hongxin had never imagined that his unstoppable Hammer of Heaven could be so easily brushed aside by someone.

At that moment, he felt an incomparable force acting upon his hammer, forcing it aside effortlessly.

As for the palm strike from Chen Fei, it seemed slow, but in an instant, it had already landed on Wu Hongxin’s chest.

“Second Brother!”

“Second Brother!”

Wu Hongxiao and Wu Hongzhong’s bodies trembled slightly, a trickle of blood flowing from their mouths. Then, they both rushed towards Chen Fei, while a radiant light connected the three of them together.

Wu Hongxin’s injuries began to heal rapidly, and his aura started to rise from its low point.

Chen Fei looked somewhat surprised at the three of them. One person took the attack, and the damage was shared among the three, plus they could rapidly heal one another. This technique was indeed extraordinary.

With the force of Chen Fei’s palm strike just now, Wu Hongxin should have been on the brink of death. However, the result was only a severe injury.

“Ah!”

Wu Hongxin roared in anger, his entire body boiling with blood, a fierce aura emanating from him as he swung his hammer towards Chen Fei again.

Compared to other martial artists, the Wu brothers intentionally focused on body refinement. As long as one of them had some comprehension of techniques, the other two could quickly learn as well.

This unique advantage naturally made them avid seekers of techniques that could increase their combat power. Uptodated from n0v𝒆lbIn.(co/m

Chen Fei watched Wu Hongxin’s attack with a slight smile. His right hand moved as if teleporting, grabbing Wu Hongxin’s wrist.

In the next moment, a roar like that of an ancient beast erupted from within Chen Fei’s body, and Wu Hongxin felt his entire body’s strength being suddenly imprisoned.

“Boom!”

Chen Fei grabbed Wu Hongxin’s hand, swung him around, and forcefully slammed him onto the ground.

The entire courtyard trembled violently as Wu Hongxin was embedded into the pit, his body nearly indistinguishable amidst the blood and flesh, his aura approaching death.

Even with the damage being shared among the three, under Chen Fei’s deliberate intention, they were rendered as powerless as clay chickens and roof tiles.

Wu Hongxiao and Wu Hongzhong, like being struck heavily, involuntarily sprayed out a mist of blood as their internal organs were crushed by the tremendous force, leaving them completely powerless.

Their usually diligently trained bodies, in this moment, seemed as fragile as paper before Chen Fei, with no effect whatsoever..
