Chapter 565: One Sword One Life

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Are they resorting to the three forbidden techniques from the start?

And what about this mid-level Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation? What’s going on?

Liao Minglei recognized Chen Fei as one of the targets this time, but the responsibility for chasing Chen Fei lies with two other individuals. When Chen Fei appeared here, Liao Minglei initially thought it was just luck that he escaped the pursuit.

But now, looking at the aura of his cultivation, those chasing Chen Fei might be in serious trouble.

Is the person responsible for gathering target information a fool? How could they make such serious mistakes and omissions in Chen Fei’s information!

Liao Minglei cursed inwardly, raising the blade in his hand and holding it before him, his entire body’s aura suddenly boiling.

Defense as if sealing, attack as if guarding!

Liao Minglei’s perception of Chen Fei had shifted from mockery at the beginning to a state of full readiness now.

Due to their disdain for Chen Fei, Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi were slightly farther away, unable to rush to aid in time. Liao Minglei’s only thought was to block Chen Fei’s move first before anything else.

Tong Linyun was heavily injured at the moment, but that’s not a concern.

When the three of them besieged Chen Fei later, as long as they wait for the tfor Chen Fei to cast his forbidden techniques to pass, they could still take him down.

“Boom!”

A violent sound suddenly exploded as a ripple emanated from the positions where the two were clashing.

Feeling the force coming from Chen Fei’s sword, Liao Minglei’s eyes involuntarily widened. Despite being mentally prepared and anticipating that Chen Fei’s strike would be powerful, Liao Minglei hadn’t expected the force to be exaggerated to this extent.

Even with the employment of the three forbidden techniques, it shouldn’t be like this.

“Bang!”

The blade in Liao Minglei’s hand directly rebounded and smashed into his own chest, blood mist filled the air, and his chest beca blur of flesh and blood.

His defensive stance was instantly broken, and Liao Minglei couldn’t control his body, flying backward.

Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi, who had already charged towards Chen Fei, couldn’t help but be shaken when they saw this scene. A single sword strike had severely injured Liao Minglei. Was this strength a bit too exaggerated? Where did this monster cfrom?

“Hum!”

Without any hesitation, Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi immediately activated the forbidden techniques within their martial arts, causing their aura to suddenly increase.

Things haven’t reached the worst point yet. Both of them are still unscathed, and with their combined strength, they should be able to barely withstand Chen Fei’s attacks.

Even though Liao Minglei is heavily injured at the moment, he still has sfighting capability left. Under a desperate struggle, the final outcis still uncertain.

If they were to turn and run at this moment, it would actually be the most dangerous situation, as they could easily be picked off one by one.

“Swish!”

Tong Linyun suddenly appeared beside Chen Fei, holding a blade and staring at Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi.

“I’ll hold them off, you go and kill that person first!” Tong Linyun whispered.

The sudden eruption of strength from Chen Fei not only shocked Liao Minglei and the others, but also startled Tong Linyun.

During their missions together, Chen Fei had always stayed close to them.

Even at such a close distance, Tong Linyun hadn’t noticed Chen Fei’s cultivation level, realizing only now that Chen Fei was already at the mid-stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Not only Tong Linyun, but even Xu Wucheng, who was at the late-stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, hadn’t noticed anything unusual, treating Chen Fei as if he were only at the early stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Of course, during the mission, Chen Fei had displayed extremely impressive eye techniques. But eye techniques were one thing, cultivation level was another.

Just like Guo Huasheng, whose proficiency in formations is exceptionally high, but his cultivation is only at the early stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Chen Fei’s sword that sent Liao Minglei flying ignited Tong Linyun’s desire to survive. Nobody wanted to die so easily when they could still live, and Tong Linyun was no exception.

“Alright!”

Chen Fei nodded, his figure flickering as he quickly caught up to Liao Minglei. Compared to Zhao Chengzhong, whom Chen Fei had slain first, Liao Minglei’s strength undoubtedly surpassed his, roughly on par with Ning Yanding. However, for Chen Fei, the difference wasn’t significant. If one sword didn’t work, there would simply be a second.

“Get out of the way!”

Seeing Tong Linyun blocking the way, Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi shouted loudly. If Chen Fei were to slay Liao Minglei, their strength would be further weakened, and whether they could hold off Chen Fei in the end would becuncertain.

Seeing Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi’s anxious demeanor, Tong Linyun burst into laughter. When Tong Linyun faced the three of them alone just now, they behaved as if toying with a mouse, calm and composed.

But now that the situation has changed, Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi’s composure has been shattered.

Tong Linyun was heavily injured at the moment, but her defensive capabilities were still considerable. Tong Linyun’s martial arts was renowned for defense, and despite the absence of Liao Minglei, Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi, though they had activated forbidden techniques, were not exerting much more pressure.

“Boom!”

Tong Linyun’s giant blade swept out, drawing in Zhou Chongyi and Kang Hongdao, who were trying to forcefully maneuver around. Amidst the violent sound, Tong Linyun spewed a mist of blood, his face pale as a sheet.

Stepping back several steps, Tong Linyun created ripples in the void, worsening his injuries, but effectively blocking Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi’s path.

On the other side, Chen Fei approached Liao Minglei. Even in his full state, Liao Minglei couldn’t withstand a sword from Chen Fei, let alone now, heavily injured. Facing another sword strike, he would likely perish instantly.

In such a situation, Liao Minglei would certainly choose to flee.

But Liao Minglei despaired as he realized that Chen Fei’s speed was even faster than his own, possibly due to Chen Fei employing the three forbidden techniques, which granted an excessive burst of short-range power.

Liao Minglei had barely shifted a distance when Chen Fei blocked his path. Gazing at the majestic aura emanating from Chen Fei’s body, Liao Minglei’s eyes were filled with despair. Tremors intensified within his Combined Aperture Tempering realm, and the artifact in his hand emitted a dazzling light.

Self-destruct!

Knowing he was doomed to die, Liao Minglei chose to self-destruct. Whether it was his Combined Aperture Tempering realm or his artifact, even if they couldn’t harm Chen Fei, they wouldn’t leave behind any trace.

“Hum!”

Dozens of sword lights plunged into Liao Minglei’s sea of consciousness, slowing down the speed of his self-destruction.

Chen Fei swiftly approached Liao Minglei, amidst the roar of dragons and elephants, thrusting his sword.

“Boom!”

Liao Minglei instinctively blocked with his blade, but immediately felt an unstoppable force crashing down on his body along the blade.

His already mangled chest was further devastated by this blow, and the energy within him paused.

“Swish!”

The Qianyuan Sword sliced through the air, emitting a deep sound of breaking through space. In the next moment, the blade swept across Liao Minglei’s neck. His body stiffened, eyes filled with unwillingness, then he turned into ashes.

The majestic spiritual essence rushed into the Qianyuan Sword, absorbing the spiritual essence of three mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators in a row today, causing the Qianyuan Sword to tremble incessantly.

Chen Fei collected Liao Minglei’s Qiankun Bag into his sleeve, then turned to look in Tong Linyun’s direction. He noticed that Tong Linyun was currently bleeding profusely, not to the point of being as weak as a thread of silk, but not far from it.

Despite this, Tong Linyun remained steadfast and refused to retreat.

Seemingly sensing Chen Fei’s gaze, Kang Hongdao turned his head and happened to witness the scene of Liao Minglei turning into ashes. A hint of fear involuntarily flickered in his eyes.

Liao Minglei was a martial artist of the slevel, yet he was swiftly slain by Chen Fei in a matter of moments. Although Kang Hongdao had anticipated this scenaearlier, experiencing it firsthand was still unacceptable.

Now, there were only two of them left. Could they hold off the opponent? “Attack!”

Seeing the scene over here, Zhou Chongyi let out a thunderous shout, dispelling Kang Hongdao’s hesitation and firming his own resolve.

At this juncture, it’s either you die or I perish. Zhou Chongyi knew that Chen Fei would never let them off. If Zhou Chongyi had Chen Fei’s strength, he would make the schoice.

In this battle, there was no avoiding it!

The aura of Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi soared as they made up their minds, pushing their strength to the utmost.

“Retreat!”

Chen Fei’s voice rang in Tong Linyun’s ears. After a moment of hesitation, Tong Linyun, leveraging the force from the previous collision, dodged the onslaught of Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi.

Tong Linyun was already barely holding on, and if Chen Fei didn’t act soon, Tong Linyun’s demise was imminent. Fortunately, Chen Fei timely slew Liao Minglei.

Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi didn’t obstruct Tong Linyun’s retreat. Tong Linyun was already at the end of her strength, and in this crucial battle, the ultimate outcrested on Chen Fei.

If Chen Fei survived, killing Tong Linyun would be of no avail to them.

Facing Chen Fei at this moment, Kang Hongdao and Zhou Chongyi were unwilling to waste any effort on others. As long as they could slay Chen Fei, Tong Linyun would be nothing but a minor nuisance.

Chen Fei stepped forward, his figure becoming like a remnant shadow, appearing in front of Kang Hongdao, thrusting his sword.

The overwhelming momentum, akin to the collapse of a mountain and the cracking of the earth, instantly enveloped Kang Hongdao. His pupils involuntarily contracted. At this moment, Kang Hongdao finally understood what Liao Minglei had faced earlier.

Observing from the sidelines before, they could only sense Chen Fei’s formidable strength, but without facing it directly, they would never know the kind of pressure it exerted.

“Break!”

Under the pressure of life and death, Kang Hongdao let out a thunderous shout, and the blade in his hand swung back in a counterattack. Instead of choosing to defend, Kang Hongdao directly went on the offensive.

Zhou Chongyi wielded his blade, his entire body’s skin seeming to be scalded, as the searing heat swept out in all directions. He swung his blade towards Chen Fei’s sword.

Combining the strength of two mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, Zhou Chongyi couldn’t believe they would lose to Chen Fei in a direct confrontation.

Chen Fei glanced at Zhou Chongyi, and a spatial grid opened up. A light point appeared beside Zhou Chongyi.

The moment this light point appeared, the terrifying aura almost made Zhou Chongyi’s blood run cold, far more terrifying than the sword in Chen Fei’s hand at the moment.

But how did this attack appear? Why was there no warning!

Countless thoughts flashed through Zhou Chongyi’s mind. His blade instinctively blocked to his side. He no longer had tto focus on Kang Hongdao. The sword energy beside him made him feel like he was on the edge of an abyss.

“Boom!”

The sword energy forcibly smashed through Zhou Chongyi’s blade, piercing straight through his body, leaving a terrifying wound that penetrated from front to back.

Countless sword energies ravaged within Zhou Chongyi’s body, shattering the essence within him like dry branches, and in the blink of an eye, Zhou Chongyi’s vitality dissipated.

One sword, one life. A mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator met his end just like that..
