Chapter 1896 Stealing the Heavens and Unsealing (4K)
Chen Fei turned to look in the direction where the Heavenly Dao fragment fell and disappeared, and said in a deep voice, "The Heavenly Dao fragment is currently being swept into the torrent of Heavenly Pillar energy, and its whereabouts are difficult to find. Even those peak experts will find it difficult to pinpoint its exact location in a short period of time."
Chen Fei put the grayish-white stone that sealed the spiritual material into his sleeve, looked at Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan, and said in a low voice, "I have another way to try to unseal it, but this place has become the eye of the storm and is extremely dangerous. It is not advisable to stay here for long. Will the two elders leave with me, or..."
Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan exchanged a glance, both understanding the meaning in each other's eyes.
Huo Yuheng turned to Chen Fei and said with a smile, "Since you have a solution, we will naturally protect you to the end. This place is indeed a dead end; leave quickly!"
Qian Shulan nodded slightly, offering no objection.
"Thank you both, elders!" Chen Fei understood Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan's intentions and bowed in gratitude.
Without further hesitation, the three transformed into three streaks of light, instantly breaking through the spatial barrier and carving out a passage in the chaotic energy storm, quickly moving away from this hellish core battlefield.
Chen Fei followed the direction he had come from, traversing layers upon layers of chaotic spatial fragments, and finally broke through the central pillar, arriving at a relatively calm area tens of millions of miles away from the pillar.
Far from the eye of the storm, only the powerful energy fluctuations emanating from the Heavenly Pillar could be faintly felt, like background radiation.
Chen Fei scanned his surroundings, his divine sense spreading out, and quickly locked onto an early-stage Immortal Realm fire spirit that was wandering aimlessly in the churning sea of lava below.
Before coming to the Central Heavenly Pillar, Chen Fei sensed that there was an Immortal Realm Fire Spirit here, which is why he came here with a clear goal. Fortunately, this Immortal Realm Fire Spirit has not left yet.
This fire spirit was enormous, with flames surging around it, but its eyes were empty, making it significantly different from the immortal fire spirits in the various heavenly pillars.
Chen Fei sensed the fire spirit, and Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan naturally detected it with their divine senses as well. At this moment, they were both looking at Chen Fei without saying a word, wondering how Chen Fei planned to break the seal.
Chen Fei flashed and appeared in front of the fire spirit as if he had teleported.
Although this immortal fire spirit has low intelligence, its instinctive hostility towards the aura of living beings is extremely strong.
Upon sensing Chen Fei's presence, its crimson fire eyes instantly turned, letting out a low roar filled with savagery and destruction.
The flames around him surged as if doused with boiling oil, condensing into a gigantic molten claw that blotted out the sky. It carried a terrifyingly high temperature that could burn mountains and boil seas and melt the void, and slammed down on Chen Fei. Even the space itself groaned under the weight of this giant claw.
Although his intelligence was low, the power of this claw attack did reach the level of the Immortal Realm, only the flow of power lacked a bit of smoothness.
Chen Fei remained calm, simply pointing his fingers forward like a sword towards the descending lava giant claw.
"puff!"
With a soft sound, like a bubble being popped, the seemingly ferocious lava claw instantly solidified and shattered, turning into a rain of magma and fire that splashed everywhere.
An invisible and intangible sword aura, yet imbued with immense sword intent, struck the core of the Immortal Realm Fire Spirit with unparalleled precision.
The fire spirit's massive body trembled violently, letting out a painful and bewildered howl. The boiling flames around it visibly dimmed and collapsed, and it was severely injured in an instant.
This was not the end. The crimson eyes of the early-stage Immortal Realm Fire Spirit instantly became scattered and confused. This was because Chen Fei had forcibly dragged it into the deep illusion constructed by the Heavenly Cause and Universe Record.
The immortal fire spirit, severely injured, began to frantically communicate with the secret realm's source, driven by instinct, attempting to absorb immortal substances to repair the wounds within its body.
Chen Fei's eyes flickered slightly, and his fingertips activated the Nine Hells Heaven-Slaying Meridian, slashing through the void.
"laugh!"
An invisible slash descended instantly, severing the invisible connection between the fire spirit and the origin of the secret realm with perfect precision.
The immortal matter that should have flowed down like a torrent was instantly stopped and imprisoned halfway.
In the distance, Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan watched Chen Fei's display of skill, their eyes widening slightly.
Previously, Chen Fei used this secret technique to forcibly sever the connection between the Heavenly Dao fragments and the secret realm. Now, he is actually using this secret technique to forcibly extract the immortal matter from the origin of the secret realm.
But beyond their shock, a new question arose in their minds: what was the connection between this immortal substance and the fragments of the Heavenly Dao? How could it be used to unseal the spiritual materials that required the aura of the fragments of the Heavenly Dao?
Just then, Qian Shulan keenly sensed a very subtle change in Chen Fei's aura. She frowned slightly and transmitted her voice to Huo Yuheng, her tone carrying a hint of uncertainty:
"Yuheng, have you noticed that Chen Fei's aura seems to have changed? There's an added sense of filth that instinctively repels people, as if he's been rejected by this world?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuheng immediately focused his attention and sensed the surroundings. Then, his brows furrowed involuntarily: "That's right! This feeling is like the rules of the secret realm rejecting and maliciously marking him!"
As Huo Yuheng spoke, he looked up at the sky, thought for a moment, and continued:
"It's probably because forcibly seizing the immortal matter from the origin of the secret realm is like stealing the creation of heaven and earth and plundering the essence of the world, which will naturally attract the backlash and malicious marking of the secret realm's heavenly Dao."
A look of sudden realization dawned on Qian Shulan's beautiful eyes. She looked in Chen Fei's direction and said:
"I understand now. Chen Fei's so-called method of unsealing is not to use the immortal substance itself, but to use the malice of the Heavenly Dao that is attracted by intercepting the immortal substance! That malice of the Heavenly Dao is essentially a manifestation of the power of the Heavenly Dao in the secret realm, and it is of the same origin and quality as the fragment of the Heavenly Dao!"
Using this intense malice of the Heavenly Dao to attack the seal on the spiritual material should have the same effect as using fragments of the Heavenly Dao—tricking the seal and breaking it!
This idea is bold and ingenious, but it is only possible if it attracts a great deal of malice from the Heavenly Dao.
Within this secret realm, it is not an easy thing for an Immortal Realm cultivator to attract the malice of Heaven.
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuheng also understood: "So that's how it is! This plan is indeed a novel approach, but the price is quite high. Being cursed by the malice of Heaven is like being burdened with a curse. Acting within the secret realm will be subject to restrictions and be fraught with danger."
Time passed silently. Before Chen Fei, immortal crystals formed from pure immortal matter appeared and accumulated like stars, and in the blink of an eye, there were nearly six thousand of them!
The dazzling light illuminated Chen Fei's calm face, while the Immortal Fire Spirit trapped in the illusion suddenly began to struggle more violently, as the will of Heaven descended.
A fierce glint instantly appeared in the Immortal Realm Fire Spirit's crimson eyes. The energy within its body surged violently, like a star about to shatter, and cracks of crimson light appeared on its surface, as if it were about to self-destruct.
Chen Fei's eyes flashed with a sharp light, like two burning stars, waiting for this moment.
The Void Treasure - Momentary Prison was activated instantly, and a wave that froze time and space and solidified all things descended, forcibly freezing the Fire Spirit and the extremely violent energy within its body at the critical point of explosion.
At the same time, Chen Fei did not hesitate to plunge the gray-white stone containing the spiritual material of a certain rank into the depths of a huge wound that the fire spirit had torn open due to its violent struggle.
The moment the stone touched the boiling primordial power at the core of the Fire Spirit, the Heavenly Dao will contained within it acted like a lit fuse, instantly triggering the rule imprint sealing the core!
"Buzz!"
A resounding hum, seemingly from the very beginning of creation, imbued with endless vicissitudes and majesty, echoed through the void.
On the surface of the gray stone, countless mysterious and complex runes were instantly activated, shining with a dazzling light. Then, the runes crumbled and dissipated inch by inch, like ice and snow melting away.
A vast, pure, and powerful aura, seemingly capable of carrying the very essence of a great world, erupted like a primordial beast breaking free from its ancient shackles.
The aura of the fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material transformed into a dazzling pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and the universe, soaring straight into the highest heavens.
Within a radius of billions of miles, all living beings, regardless of strength, felt their souls tremble. A terrifying surge of energy, like a tsunami, swept across the heavens and earth.
However, just as this tide was about to completely spiral out of control and continue to spread outward, Chen Fei had already activated the Nirvana Return to Dust Technique to its fullest extent.
A mysterious and unpredictable wave, seemingly capable of assimilating all things and calming all turmoil, instantly spread out. At the same time, the power of the void shadows and the time-stealing rift intertwined and overlapped.
Chen Fei's aura became blurred and elusive, like ink stains instantly merging into the background. The dazzling pillar of light and his powerful aura that shot into the sky seemed to be forcibly compressed by an invisible hand.
Its radiation range was forcibly suppressed from a terrifying scale that could cover a secret realm of hundreds of billions of miles, or even a wider area, to a mere radius of hundreds of millions of miles.
Although it remains conspicuous, like a lighthouse in the night, it is now vastly different from the waves it might have previously caused.
However, just as Chen Fei suppressed the tide of qi, his brows furrowed suddenly, and his gaze, sharp as lightning, pierced through layers of spatial barriers, looking towards millions of miles away.
An extremely subtle yet terrifying demonic thought, filled with overwhelming malice and greed, like a swarm of sharks smelling blood, was tearing through the void at an astonishing speed, frantically approaching their location.
Its speed is so fast that it has reached the peak of the Immortal Realm.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Fei flicked his right hand, and nearly six thousand immortal crystals, piled up like a mountain and radiating a magnificent, immortal primordial brilliance, instantly appeared in front of Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan.
"Elders, please store this item for now and give me a few moments," Chen Fei said with a calm and unhurried tone.
Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan frowned unconsciously as they looked at the Immortal Mystic Crystal that appeared before them, a hint of doubt rising in their hearts.
Huo Yuheng was about to ask Chen Fei what he meant by this when his expression changed slightly. He and Qian Shulan turned their heads sharply at almost the same time, their eyes fixed on the distance.
Three jet-black beams of light, radiating destructive power and raging demonic flames, appeared like world-destroying demonic spears tearing through the sky, carrying a terrifying pressure that could freeze one's soul.
Wherever the light passed, space crumbled inch by inch, the rules wailed and receded, and three scarlet demonic eyes, like burning stars, instantly locked onto Chen Fei, Huo Yuheng, and Qian Shulan.
The undisguised greed, murderous intent, and tyrannical aura surged forth like a tangible tide.
The three peak Immortal Realm Heavenly Demons possessed auras several times stronger than Qian Shulan's.
"Chen Fei, go and break through to the next level immediately! The two of us will stay here!"
Huo Yuheng immediately understood Chen Fei's intention. These six thousand Immortal Mystic Crystals were a sign of trust and entrustment to them in fulfilling their duty as protectors, and also a precautionary measure.
Without uttering a single word, Huo Yuheng waved his hand, and his immense Yuan Power instantly absorbed the torrent of Immortal Mystic Crystals before him.
Qian Shulan did not hesitate either. Her body was surrounded by mysterious light, and an ancient bronze mirror appeared on her head. The mirror light was like a waterfall, turning into layers of mysterious light barriers, firmly protecting Chen Fei behind her.
"No need for a direct confrontation; let's avoid their attack for now."
As Chen Fei spoke, his figure instantly became ethereal, disappearing silently from his spot and entering the depths of the void of the Guixu Realm. Now that the fourteenth-tier top-grade spiritual material had been unsealed, he naturally began to break through the bottleneck of the peak of the Immortal Realm.
Chen Fei wasn't just after a fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material; he was also determined to obtain that fragment of the Heavenly Dao.
The instant Chen Fei's true form disappeared, he stepped forward and silently appeared beside Huo Yuheng and Qian Shulan.
Deep within the void of the Guixu Realm, the radiance of the Time Pavilion descended like a silver river from the heavens, enveloping Chen Fei's figure and isolating him from all external disturbances.
Chen Fei sat cross-legged, his divine sense repeatedly sweeping across his palm at the fourteenth-grade top-rank spiritual material that radiated power like a vast starry sea.
Its interior is pure and flawless, with a profound and abundant source, showing no trace of being tampered with by the Heavenly Dao of the Secret Realm.
Once confirmed, Chen Fei's eyes narrowed, and the Heavenly Cycle Record within his body began to operate with a roar.
The immense Yuan energy, like a bursting dam, instantly enveloped and covered the spiritual material in his hand.
As the Yuan energy flowed, the fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material in his hand began to melt.
"Buzz!"
As a trace of the fourteenth-grade top-quality spiritual material was refined, an indescribable, earth-shattering primordial power surged into Chen Fei's limbs, bones, and soul.
In an instant, it was as if billions of stars within Chen Fei's body simultaneously lit up, collapsed, and were reborn.
The Yuanli Ocean expanded and condensed wildly, the core of the divine soul radiated boundless light, and the perception of the rules of heaven and earth became clearer.
The boundary barrier began to fluctuate violently under the impact of this vast and mighty force.
At the same time, the entire Guixu Realm trembled violently. Above the sky, the galaxy flowed suddenly at an accelerated speed, and countless stars trailed brilliant tails of light as they collided and merged, evolving into a grand phenomenon of creation and destruction of the world and the birth and death of the galaxy.
Deep within the earth, the spiritual veins, like a giant dragon awakening, roared deafeningly, spewing forth primordial energy containing boundless creative power.
The billions of beings within the Guixu Realm, whether they were ignorant low-level beings or powerful beings who had already embarked on the path of cultivation, all looked up at the sky in bewilderment, feeling the seemingly endless sublimation and transformation between heaven and earth.
They were filled with shock and confusion: How could it be that their own realm lord was breaking through again?
Just a few days ago, they had undergone an earth-shattering transformation. This cultivation speed has completely overturned their understanding of "time"!
Outside the Realm of Return to Nothingness, Huo Yuheng, along with Qian Shulan and Chen Fei, transformed into a blurry stream of light, trying their best to distance themselves from the three Immortal Realm Peak Heavenly Demons who were pursuing them.
