Chapter 864: You Guys, Attack Together!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei’s performance had truly startled those Monster Kings on the opposite side.

The Sprite Turtle, to a certain extent, had been much more troublesome than the Thunder Dragon Ape because its defense had been incredibly strong. Ordinary attacks against the Sprite Turtle had been like tickling it.

Moreover, the Sprite Turtle had been able to rebound attacks. If you couldn’t break through its defense, you had to prepare to be counterattacked by your own strength, combined with the Sprite Turtle’s.

After all, the bloodline power under the Tyrant Bloodline hadn’t been a joke.

Yet this human, Chen Fei, had forcefully swept the arena, displaying a physique and strength even more monstrous than the demons.

Chen Fei had sheathed his Concealment Sword and had left the arena.

In a sense, the Sprite Turtle’s attack style had been somewhat similar to Chen Fei’s, especially the rebound attack, which had been almost identical to the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.

With the same attack pattern, the stronger one had inevitably emerged victorious.

Undoubtedly, with so many talents and layered attacks, coupled with the perfected Suppressing Dragon Elephant at the Great Completion Realm, the Sprite Turtle had stood no chance against Chen Fei.

It had taken only three moves to shatter the Sprite Turtle’s shell, which had been testament to its extraordinary hardness.

Even though the Thunder Dragon Ape’s defense had been strong, it had still almost fallen to the sword light.

In the fifth round of the mid-fourth stage, a total of fourteen participants competed, making the matches quick, especially for competitors like Chen Fei and Zhu Xiaowen, who almost swept their opponents off the stage in just a few moves, accelerating the pace of the competition.

In the late-fourth stage arena, before the true rankings were decided, the mid­fourth stage arena had already completed the fifth round, leaving seven participants to proceed to the sixth round.

The sixth round would determine the rankings, revealing who would lead in the mid-fourth stage arena.

The matches in both the late and early stages of the fourth stage were intense, with similar strengths displayed. There were no dominant figures like Chen Fei.

As the mid-fourth stage arena began the sixth round to determine rankings, the top five had already been decided in the late stage, consisting of two disciples from the Sacred Land and three Monster Kings.

Meanwhile, the early stage was still in the fifth round.

In the mid-fourth stage arena, with four Mountain Sea Realm experts and three Monster Kings, the top three positions were unquestionably strong, though the exact order remained unclear.

“Do you all see clearly?” smiled the Sacred Master Su Wenyu.

“I still favor Bloodwing Divine Phoenix. The Nirvana Fire is too dominating. If one can’t defeat Bloodwing Divine Phoenix quickly, they’ll surely lose!” murmured Zhan Xuming softly.

Against the Nirvana Fire’s scorching, it was difficult to resist in the mid- Fourth-Tier, especially for creatures like the phoenix, where the Nirvana Fire was instinctively wielded and didn’t pose any pressure.

This was fundamentally different from those Monster Kings who only had partial Fire Emperor and could only unleash a bit of Nirvana Fire with all their might.

Within Nirvana Fire, the Phoenix’s strength was at its peak, making it difficult to defeat, let alone defeat quickly.

It had become a paradox.

Divine Beasts were such unreasonable existences; there was no concept of fairness. That’s just how they were from birth.

“The Nine Heavens Dust Technique could indeed withstand Nirvana Fire for a short time, but defeating Bloodwing Divine Phoenix was indeed too difficult,” Pang Changping pondered for a moment, shaking his head.

“Chen Junior’s physique was stronger than most Monster Kings, somewhat familiar. I wonder how resistant he was to fire,” Meng Guangning recalled Chen Fei’s recent performance.

A strong physique meant strong resistance to all defenses, but Bloodwing Divine Phoenix wielded Nirvana Fire, a disproportionate force.

“We would know shortly,” smiled Zhuo Xiansheng.

Before the mid-fourth stage arena, Chen Fei and the other seven participants had stood around.

According to the ranking rules, they had continued to compete pairwise, with the winners advancing and the losers facing each other.

The last person standing had been the leader.

Chen Fei glanced at the other six participants, smiled slightly, and took a step forward onto the arena.

At this moment, Chen Fei didn’t mind when he would enter the fray.

“Gentlemen, please,” Chen Fei nodded respectfully to the other six.

“Buzz!”

Suddenly, the arena barrier flickered slightly, and two figures appeared outside the barrier. Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix exchanged glances, both choosing to challenge Chen Fei simultaneously.

Or rather, whether it was Zhu Xiaowen or Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, they both wanted to face the other two opponents one by one.

According to the ranking match rules, if Chen Fei fought Zhu Xiaowen first and one of them lost, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix would only be able to challenge the winner.

Bloodwing Divine Phoenix didn’t think he would lose, so wouldn’t that mean he could only fight one of them?

To become the leader, one had to defeat all competitors. Zhu Xiaowen shared the same determination as Bloodwing Divine Phoenix.

Thus, seeing Chen Fei step onto the stage, both immediately chose to confront him.

Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix saw determination in each other’s eyes, clearly not intending to back down.

“You both seem to think highly of me. In that case, why don’t we settle this in one go?” Chen Fei looked at Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, a smile spreading across his face.

Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix both furrowed their brows. Were they going to engage in a three-way battle? This would require coordination and quick reactions on the fly.

Perhaps just after cooperating with one to strike the other, the roles of friend and foe could instantly switch.

Bloodwing Divine Phoenix glanced at Chen Fei, then at Zhu Xiaowen, and suddenly burst into laughter. Were these two humans planning to sandwich it?

Humans indeed had many tricks up their sleeves, even at a time like this!

“Alright!”

As Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s voice fell, it charged directly into the arena.

Zhu Xiaowen chuckled and followed closely behind. The other two participants showed no fear of the melee. What did Zhu Xiaowen have to fear?

Onlookers around them watched in astonishment. They hadn’t expected the first ranking match of the mid-fourth stage arena to turn into a three-way melee for the top three positions.

High-level beings like the Sun Moon Realm and Monster Kings in the sky did not intervene. After all, it was just a selection match, and if anything unexpected happened, they could intervene immediately.

Chen Fei, Zhu Xiaowen, and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix faced each other, their imposing auras filling the surroundings, yet they hadn’t moved a muscle.

“Boom!”

Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s body suddenly erupted in flames, spreading across the entire arena in the blink of an eye.

In Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s mind, it was already certain that Chen Fei and Zhu Xiaowen would team up against it first. Therefore, it immediately enveloped the two humans in its Nirvana Fire.

As long as it wasn’ t overwhelmed by their combined attack, victory would inevitably belong to it!

Within Nirvana Fire, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s speed was astonishingly fast. Trying to strike it was no easy task.

Zhu Xiaowen narrowed his eyes. The Nine Heavens Dust Technique activated, and the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly turned gray. In an instant, endless dust obscured Zhu Xiaowen, keeping the Nirvana Fire at bay.

Nirvana Fire was Phoenix fire. When Zhu Xiaowen’s Nine Heavens Dust touched the Nirvana Fire, his body instantly turned crimson, then burned through and fell away like glass.

However, the layers of Nine Heavens Dust enveloping Zhu Xiaowen were countless, incomprehensible in their depth, akin to the immeasurable height of the nine heavens, far beyond mortal comprehension.

The Nine Heavens Dust Technique displayed by Zhu Xiaowen now exuded a unique charm of its own.

For the moment, Zhu Xiaowen didn’t need to worry about being burned through. However, as time dragged on, the situation could change.

After dispelling the Nine Heavens Dust, Zhu Xiaowen locked eyes with Bloodwing Divine Phoenix. Winning this contest meant not letting Bloodwing Divine Phoenix have its way, or else no one would endure!

Just as Zhu Xiaowen was about to charge at Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, a sharp sword intent suddenly landed on him. Zhu Xiaowen was startled and looked at Chen Fei in surprise.

In this situation, you’re attacking me first?

“Please enlighten me,” Chen Fei chuckled softly.

Majestic sword intent surged into the sky, keeping the Nirvana Fire at bay around him.

He invoked the Seven Star Illumination Technique, Sword Dominates the Galaxy, and ignited his divine soul!

A layer of ethereal flames floated around Chen Fei’s body.

Chen Fei didn’t intend for a melee by letting Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix both come down. He aimed to take on both!

Since deciding to participate in a life-and-death challenge, hiding his strength was no longer necessary. It was better to display sufficient power and let each Sacred Land spare no effort in supporting him over the next month.

Simultaneously defeating Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix would be quite sufficient!

As for exposing too much strength? Over the next month, Chen Fei’s power would skyrocket. His current strength would soon become a fleeting memory.

And who said defeating Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix required Chen Fei to use all his strength?

The Qianyuan Sword, Blood Rebirth, and others like them were completely unnecessary!

Indeed, Nirvana Fire was domineering. Chen Fei could feel it burning not only his flesh but also his elemental energy, mental strength, and soul.

However, Chen Fei’s vitality and spiritual soul were protected by the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, as well as techniques like the Qianyuan Sword, Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique, Prison Suppression, Adamantine Body, Divine Blessing, Sword Master, and Thunderstorm.

These techniques and talents all fortified Chen Fei. In a sense, his defense was stronger than his offense, and much stronger at that!

Even the talent of Teleportation could slightly ripple the spatial layers, pushing Nirvana Fire away from his body.

With all these defenses, Chen Fei suddenly realized that surviving under Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s Nirvana Fire for an extended period wasn’t as difficult as he had initially thought.

As for Nirvana Fire, which ignited the surrounding tens of miles of spiritual energy, preventing opponents from absorbing it, Chen Fei had the Talent of Endless Regeneration, drawing from the void’s spiritual energy as his power source.

“Burning my soul? Going all out from the start? Then why bother with a melee earlier?”

Seeing the ethereal flames burning on Chen Fei’s body, now directly confronting Zhu Xiaowen amidst the Nirvana Fire, effectively facing two opponents at once, Su Wenyu’s brow furrowed slightly.

“This isn’t going all out. The Divine Blessing Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique can restore soul injuries. When Dream Shadow Master faced enemies, he often burned his soul,” Zhu Xiaoming shook his head with a smile.

“But with such intense burning, relying solely on Divine Blessing Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique wouldn’t suffice.”

“There should be other talents related to the soul. His soul shows no signs of weakness,” Pang Changping’s eyes gleamed faintly.

“So, he requested a melee to take on both of them?” Meng Guangning exclaimed in surprise.

Chen Fei appeared in front of Zhu Xiaowen and swung his sword. The protective barrier around Zhu Xiaowen trembled slightly, and ripples spread across it from the point where the Hidden Yuan Sword struck.

“Boom!”

The next moment, the protective barrier shattered instantly, revealing Zhu Xiaowen behind it. The surrounding Nirvana Fire was swept away by this violent force, creating a vacuum zone several dozen meters in radius.

In his current state, Chen Fei could slay late-stage Mountain Sea Realm experts with a single sword stroke—each strike a kill!

Zhu Xiaowen was formidable, and his Perfect Nine Heavens Dust Technique was powerful too, but he couldn’t achieve a one-strike kill against a late-stage Mountain Sea Realm opponent.

Far away, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s eyes widened slightly. Chen Fei had just charged at Zhu Xiaowen amidst the Nirvana Fire, and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix still had some doubts.

As Chen Fei’s sword fell, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix suddenly understood his intention—he aimed to take on both opponents alone, not engage in a melee.

Chen Fei gazed at Zhu Xiaowen and struck again.

“Boom!”

The remaining dust shield shattered in an instant, along with Zhu Xiaowen who stood behind it, both eliminated.

However, several miles away, Zhu Xiaowen’s figure reappeared—it was a dust substitute!

Chen Fei smiled faintly, then turned to look at Zhu Xiaowen and Bloodwing Divine Phoenix.

“Now, we can begin in earnest!”
