Chapter 794: There Is Imperfection

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei sheathed the Qianyuan Sword and took out the Concealment Bell from his sleeve.

The Concealment Bell was also somewhat excited at this moment, after all, it had seen the Qianyuan Sword advancing in rank.

Whether human, monster, or even spiritual treasure, the ability to enhance one’s own strength would instinctively generate anticipation. To some extent, this was a leap in the hierarchy of life.

Chen Fei took out the Purple Crystal Soil and affixed it to the body of the Concealment Bell.

The situation of the Concealment Bell was similar to that of the Qianyuan Sword, only one step away. At this moment, with the influx of the essence of the Purple Crystal Soil, the Concealment Bell trembled slightly.

Chen Fei glanced at the Concealment Bell, didn’t find any issues, and let it continue to absorb while taking out the other exchanged spiritual materials one by one, beginning to enhance the Shadow Lock Bow and the Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant.

These two items required a considerable amount of spiritual materials, but fortunately, Chen Fei had exchanged for many. Normally speaking, they could be upgraded to the level of middle-grade spiritual treasures.

The Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant, in fact, Chen Fei had never used it once.

But it was ultimately a spiritual treasure aimed at the soul, inherently rare. When truly used, the value of the Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant would be demonstrated.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye, and ripples appeared in the formation of the secret chamber, causing the power of the spiritual treasures to involuntarily resonate with the surrounding elemental energy.

The Concealment Bell was the first to break through, without any hindrance in the middle. Both its defensive and offensive capabilities had greatly increased. Attacks from ordinary early-stage fourth-rank beings would find it difficult to penetrate its defense unless their numbers were overwhelming.

The body of the Shadow Lock Bow enlarged by a section, enhancing the concealment of its arrows.

Of course, the most important enhancement was the greatly increased pulling force of the Shadow Lock Bow, which was the focus of Chen Fei’s upgrade. This enhancement allowed Chen Fei to fully unleash most of his current strength.

The upgrade process of the Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant was the most difficult, with several mistakes in between.

For such a treasure aimed at the soul, it would have been better to have a skilled craftsman smelt it. Chen Fei’s knowledge of forging still seemed somewhat rudimentary.

However, in the end, relying on valuable spiritual materials, the Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant was forcibly upgraded.

Now, whenever Chen Fei wore the Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant, he could feel the tranquility of his soul.

This passive state could provide assistance to cultivators in both their daily practice and battles.

In emergencies, directly triggering the special power of the Astonishing Spirit Jade Pendant could also boost the strength of the soul.

With all four spiritual treasures upgraded, a hint of smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face.

However, the high-grade fourth-rank spiritual materials were too expensive to exchange for, otherwise Chen Fei would have wanted to upgrade the Qianyuan Sword to the category of high-grade spiritual treasures first.

After collecting all the spiritual treasures, Chen Fei stood in place, intending to test the innate talent, Sword Dominates the Galaxy.

Within the Black Divine Barrier, Chen Fei was uncertain about what changes the innate talent would undergo. Since it was the first time using it, out of caution, he decided to test it in the secret chamber first.

Activating the Purple Sky Stellar Sword, the elemental energy flowed rapidly within Chen Fei’s body. Then, the innate talent Sword Mastery within the second Divine Palace trembled violently, a radiance surged out, rushing towards the third Divine Palace’s innate talent, Endless Regeneration.

The two innate talents connected together, followed by another radiance flying out and delving into the fourth Divine Palace’s innate talent, Adamantine Body.

The three innate talents interconnected, a peculiar power enveloped Chen Fei’s entire body. In the next moment, a sword-shaped phantom appeared above the four Divine Palaces, and the elemental energy within Chen Fei’s body boiled completely.

“Hum!”

A ripple spread from Chen Fei’s body, his aura suddenly soaring, as if an ancient behemoth had awakened.

Chen Fei remained expressionless, quietly sensing the changes in his body at this moment, a hint of realization appearing in his eyes.

It might have been that all three innate talents were high-grade versions; the current effect of Sword Dominates the Galaxy exceeded Chen Fei’s expectations.

Even when Adamantine Body was still in its initial stage, Sword Dominates the Galaxy’s effect was incredibly powerful.

A twenty percent increase in attack power, and a twenty percent reduction in damage received under pressure!

The effect was plain and simple, but for boosting combat power, it was remarkably astonishing.

In battles among strong individuals, sometimes the difference was subtle, not to the extent of being overwhelming, but it was decisive for the outcome of the battle.

If the difference was already subtle, the current effect of Sword Dominates the Galaxy would further widen the gap between Chen Fei and ordinary mid-level Mountain Sea Realm practitioners.

Moreover, in the future, as Adamantine Body innate talent improved, the effect of Sword Dominates the Galaxy would undoubtedly strengthen.

If later, Chen Fei integrated the Purple Sky Stellar Sword with a new cultivation technique, allowing more innate talents to merge into Sword Dominates the Galaxy, then this innate talent would further enhance.

The only drawback was that this innate talent consumed a tremendous amount of Chen Fei’s elemental energy, mental focus, and soul.

Just activated, Chen Fei could already feel the burden Sword Dominates the Galaxy placed on his body.

Elemental energy was easy to replenish, with the innate talent Endless Regeneration continuously extracting it from the surrounding elemental energies. But restoring mental focus and soul wasn’t as straightforward.

This innate talent could only be used in critical moments. Although there were no lingering effects, prolonged use could easily drain Chen Fei.

Dispelling Sword Dominates the Galaxy, Chen Fei’s aura began to decline, returning to its original state.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Fei recalled the various details of using Sword Dominates the Galaxy, then sat cross-legged, starting to cultivate the Purple Sky Stellar Sword.

A clone emerged from Chen Fei’s shadow, initiating the manipulation of elemental energies to pummel Chen Fei’s physical body.

The insights from the innate talent Adamantine Body and the Purple Sky Stellar Sword appeared simultaneously in Chen Fei’s consciousness, gradually immersing him in cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, several hours passed, and Chen Fei opened his eyes, leaving the secret chamber.

Zhao Ruizheng and the other two would officially emerge tomorrow, so today, Chen Fei was acting alone.

In Chen Fei’s eyes, the Black Divine Barrier was now a place both dangerous and full of treasures. Leaving aside the contributions, just the insights into cultivation techniques made Chen Fei eagerly pursue them.

Thanks to the cultivation technique from the Saint Yan Sect, Chen Fei had the opportunity to choose the Xuanyuan Sword.

To vanquish monsters and evil, the Xuanyuan Sword was undoubtedly the best choice. Without the filtering of the Xuanyuan Sword’s true spirit, no matter how brave Chen Fei was, he wouldn’t dare to absorb those heavily contaminated insights.

The Black Divine Barrier was constantly changing, absorbing insights. Chen Fei didn’t dare to slack off even for a day, fearing that one day the Black Divine Barrier would discover this trick wasn’t effective and stop coming altogether.

On the way to the Black Divine Barrier, Chen Fei encountered many Mountain Sea Realm practitioners, nodding in acknowledgment to some familiar faces.

With the lingering glow of the setting sun, Chen Fei entered the barrier.

Glancing into the distance, Chen Fei wondered if his perception was mistaken. There was a moment when he sensed something unusual.

However, when he carefully focused, he found nothing.

Within the barrier, the density of the black mist seemed to have increased slightly.

This wasn’t particularly surprising; the density of the black mist changed every day. If it thickened, it indicated that the struggle between the Black Divine and humans or monsters had gained some advantage.

Chen Fei lowered his head, his figure flickering, disappearing from the spot.

As he leaped down from the city wall, Chen Fei glanced back. Compared to when he first arrived, the scope of the city wall had expanded significantly.

The people from the major Sacred Lands were indeed working hard to purify the Black Divine Barrier, but whether there would be a good outcome in the end, no one could say for sure.

“Man proposes, God disposes!”

Twenty miles outside the city wall, Chen Fei stood still. There was less than half an hour until nightfall.

Chen Fei didn’t bother to look for other monsters; he planned to absorb the insights first.

Several figures leaped down from the city wall about a dozen miles away. One of them held a compass. After a moment, they pointed in a direction and hurried off.

“Even with the perception being so obscured, Brother Gu can still find the position of that person. Truly remarkable!” One of them complimented Gu Yande, who held the compass.

“It’s all thanks to the mysterious techniques of the Sacred Lands. Back then, I didn’t have this ability,” Gu Yande chuckled softly.

“When we see that person, let’s attack to inflict severe injuries and then interrogate him!”

One of them raised their head slightly, and the setting sun’s rays filtered through the barrier, casting a faint light on the person’s face. It was Xiao Qiping.

However, at this moment, Xiao Qiping didn’t have his usual warm smile; his expression seemed extremely gloomy.

“I’m afraid that person will be stubborn and refuse to talk when the time comes,” Gu Yande whispered softly.

“Then let’s directly perform soul searching. Although we can only find fragments, we only need a location, so there won’t be any mistakes,” Xiao Qiping said in a deep voice.

People familiar with Xiao Qiping knew him as a smiling tiger, narrow-minded and vengeful.

However, despite his flaws, Xiao Qiping possessed remarkable martial talent and was extremely cunning. He was also quite generous to his own people, which attracted many followers.

When Zhao Ruizheng and the other three didn’t stop at the Stone Forest Canyon, they had already earned Xiao Qiping’s resentment.

But Xiao Qiping didn’t act rashly with simple retaliation. Instead, he first conducted a probe and found that Zhao Ruizheng and his companions were quite powerful. If they were to cause trouble within the Black Divine Barrier, he would suffer heavy losses as well.

So, Xiao Qiping temporarily suppressed the matter, waiting for the right opportunity to strike. He continued to have his men secretly monitor the other party.

Then, a few days ago, someone reported that one of them frequently entered and exited the Black Divine Barrier alone. After coming out, they would visit the Mission Hall to redeem rewards.

This immediately caught Xiao Qiping’s attention. After secretly observing for a few days and confirming the information, Xiao Qiping decided to capture this person.

A person entering and exiting the Black Divine Barrier alone and receiving rewards daily was quite intriguing.

Such lone wolves naturally existed, but almost every one of them was a strong practitioner in the later stages of the Mountain Sea Realm, with very few even in the mid stages.

For someone who was only in the early stages of the Mountain Sea Realm to be acting like this, it was highly likely that they had discovered a place where they could easily kill monsters.

Within the Black Divine Barrier, such places existed, and they were still controlled by several major groups.

The heavens and earth, even in the realm of the gods, are not without flaws, let alone a barrier created by the Black Divine. There were bound to be some flaws.

If one could control such a location, it would be like having a place where contributions were generated automatically and one could easily obtain rewards from the Mission Hall every day. Why wouldn’t one do it?

“Bea bit more restrained in your actions. Otherwise, if you killed them outright, soul searching would be too difficult!”

Jing Chaodong chuckled softly. He was in the mid stages of the Mountain Sea Realm and had recently joined Xiao Qiping’s team.
