Mist enveloped every direction, making the entire lake look shadowy and indistinct.
Upon looking again at Chen Fei, he had already disappeared from his original spot, appearing in mid-air.
The Qianyuan Sword in his hand transformed into a Startling Crane, thrusting forward. With the sharp intent of his sword roaring, it seemed as though space itself would be punctured by this strike.
“Buzz!”
In front of the sword’s edge, where previously there was no one, Ao Zian’s figure appeared.
Ao Zian, looking at Chen Fei, had a gaze filled with astonishment.
It wasn’t astonishment at Chen Fei’s breaking of his Hundred Dragon Roar with a single move, but that his concealed location had been discerned by Chen Fei with one glance.
In the human imperial sovereign’s inheritances, in terms of the exquisiteness of illusions, the Heavenly Illusion Time Severing Technique ranks first, which is also the martial arts technique cultivated by Kuang Xingfeng.
But in terms of the exquisiteness of concealment, several martial arts techniques could be said to be on par with the Heavenly Illusion Time Severing Technique.
Just as Ao Zian was cultivating the Water Mist Technique, in a place rich with Water Element, his battle strength could directly increase by a margin. Moreover, he could use the Water Element to cover his bodily form, making it impossible for others to perceive his precise location.
If he were to break through to the Rule Integration Realm in the future and mastered the Water Element Rules, he could disregard the influence of the environment on him.
At the time when he was at the mid-level of the Sun Moon Realm, Chen Fei, when facing against Kuang Xingfeng, took some time to locate Kuang Xingfeng’s real body.
Now that Chen Fei was in the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm, he must have made substantial progress, but he was at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm. Normally speaking, his hidden spot should absolutely not have been unveiled with just one glance.
This breakthrough of a minor realm by Chen Fei seemed to have utterly transformed him.
Red Lotus Sword appeared in Ao Zian’s hand and struck towards Chen Fei with the same move.
Divine Power Red Lotus Thousand Soaring!
He was at the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, and moreover, Chen Fei hadn’t used that attack which was almost at the Rule Integration Realm level.
According to rumors, Chen Fei was able to slay so many at the mid-level of the Sun Moon Realm in the Glass Space using an explosive secret technique.
Ao Zian didn’t believe that in this head-to-head fight, he would still be at a disadvantage!
“Clang!”
The Qianyuan Sword and Red Lotus Sword collided, emitting a sound like twisting metal, and Ao Zian’s resolute expression suddenly changed.
With all his strength, he only managed to exert less than seventy percent, and the position where the Qianyuan Sword struck sent Ao Zian a frustrating sensation, almost to the point of spitting blood.
The result was an overwhelming power that instantly broke through his essence force’s defense, wreaking havoc within his body.
Ao Zian, unable to control himself, retreated backward, trying to dissipate the Tremendous Strength inside him.
At the same time, a protective divine light surfaced on Ao Zian’s body, and the lake below violently shook, reflecting the light on Ao Zian’s body.
Divine Power Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield, directly linking to the hundred-mile lake below: when the Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield was attacked, it could transfer most of the damage to the water below.
A black light flashed in Chen Fei’s eyes, and he took a step forward, a sword chopping down.
When Ao Zian saw Chen Fei’s movement, he took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing the injuries inside his body, flipped the Red Lotus Sword over, ready to continue using Divine Power Red Lotus Thousand Soaring.
Yet, just as he started, Ao Zian’s expression slightly froze because he suddenly discovered that an essential component of the Red Lotus Thousand Soaring he wanted to use was missing.
For a moment, he couldn’t perform this Divine Power.
But how could this be, when Red Lotus Thousand Soaring was the first Divine Power Ao Zian had formed after breaking through to the Sun Moon Realm?
This Divine Power that had accompanied Ao Zian for over a thousand years, was he now being told that he’d forgotten how to use Red Lotus Thousand Soaring?
Is there anything more absurd than this?
At this moment, Ao Zian felt completely bewildered.
But the threat from the Qianyuan Sword made Ao Zian gather his mental defense forcibly; with a hand seal, a Dragon Shadow suddenly burst out from the lake below, blocking in front of him.
“Boom!”
The Qianyuan Sword directly slashed through the Dragon Shadow, then landed on the Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield.
The Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield violently fluctuated, briefly pausing as it linked with the lake, then a sword trail tens of miles long appeared in the water.
The rock layer beneath the entire lake was directly shattered, revealing a fissure dozens of miles deep.
Ao Zian once again involuntarily flew backward, the Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield almost shattered by a single sword strike; luckily, it ultimately held.
As long as it wasn’t instantly broken, according to the characteristic of the Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield, it could recover in the next instant.
An unending flow—this was indeed the characteristic of the Water Element Rules, and it was also profoundly demonstrated in this Divine Power of Ao Zian’s.
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, the Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield, which was quickly recovering, trembled briefly and then shattered completely, turning into a ray of light and vanishing.
Ao Zian was stunned, his eyes incredulously watching the scene before him, then looking at Chen Fei who had already come up to him.
Just now, he had forgotten how to use the Heavenly Gang Water Source Shield, so the barrier instantly shattered.
Moves in the Sun Moon Realm required extremely precise operation, and Divine Powers even more so, leaving no room for errors.
But under normal circumstances, moves and Divine Powers would have been refined through long spans of time, becoming instinctual and error-proof.
Yet today, Ao Zian had forgotten how to use two Divine Powers.
And there was the Dragon Shadow Waterfall just before, Ao Zian recalled, he also forgot a key point in it.
Looking up at Chen Fei, his face wearing a bitter smile, he admitted defeat.
Although at this moment, the injuries inside his body weren’t severe, and normally he still had the strength to fight further.
But he had forgotten two Divine Powers directly, how could he continue to fight?
At this moment, even Ao Zian, thick-skulled as he was, realized that this must be Chen Fei’s doing; the opponent had made him forget his Divine Powers.
What kind of outrageous characteristic of a Divine Power was this? There had been no mention of such a thing among the human race, or even among the neighboring dozen alien races.
“I lost.”
Ao Zian involuntarily sighed and said to Chen Fei, “Can you tell me what move this is?”
“Slaying God!”
Seeing Ao Zian concede, Chen Fei did not continue to attack with his sword.
There was no feud to begin with; the trials at the Age Tower simply required defeating the opponent.
Winning across higher levels had now become increasingly effortless.
Fighting against the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, he had resolved the battle in three moves, and Ao Zian was not just any pinnacle fighter of the Sun Moon Realm, he was within the top ten of his division.
Every single strike made the opponent forget his Divine Powers, indeed, there was nothing left to fight, his strength had been significantly diminished.
“Slaying God, what a good name!”
Ao Zian’s expression shifted slightly as he bowed to Chen Fei, then slowly vanished from sight.
Outside the Age Tower, as Ao Zian conceded, the bands of light on the tower’s body changed abruptly.
With Ao Zian’s reappearance, the final result of the trial was confirmed.
Ao Zian lost, and Chen Fei officially became the master of the Age Tower.
It could be said, Chen Fei had yet again created an achievement for this term’s Qiankun Mansion, remaining known in the Age Tower even in the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm.
Now, it was just to see how far Chen Fei could go.
In previous terms of the Qiankun Mansion, there were those in the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm who stayed at the Age Tower.
Among them, the strongest from the later stages eventually ranked sixty-seventh.
That person later cultivated all the way to the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm, falling just short of achieving the Emperor Realm, leaving many to rue what could have been.
This also illustrated just how difficult it was to fully control a complete rule, and the many accidents that could occur.
With such talent, yet still failing to achieve the Emperor Realm.
This was also why Dao Yuefeng and the others could not be certain whether Chen Fei could reach that step. They could only be sure that it should be no problem for Chen Fei to cultivate to the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm.
After leaving the tower, Ao Zian did not depart but continued to stand below the tower.
With the level of combat strength that Chen Fei had displayed, Ao Zian wanted to see just what rank Chen Fei could ultimately achieve.
As for informing others about Chen Fei’s Divine Power, Ao Zian was not so kind-hearted.
The feeling of being made to forget one’s Divine Powers on the spot was too profound; it wasn’t something he could enjoy alone. Surely other masters of the Age Tower would want to try it out too.
Even if the other masters knew about this phenomenon, ultimately it was unavoidable.
They would still fight as they had to.
Qu Qingsheng and others stood below the tower, their expressions exhilarated.
What means to be immortalized in history, this was it!
Inside the Age Tower.
“May I ask if you plan to leave or continue challenging?” The voice of the artifact spirit echoed around.
“Continue challenging, rank seventy!”
Above his own rank by thirty places, Chen Fei directly challenged the maximum limit.
The recent fight with Ao Zian wasn’t even mildly intense; it had merely allowed Chen Fei to experience the effect of the God-slaying Sword.
“Please wait!”
A ray of light flew out of the Age Tower, circled around the Qiankun Mansion, and then left the mansion.
Moments later, the light returned and landed on Gu Cizong in the public area.
When the light descended, not only did Gu Cizong pause, but the surrounding Sun Moon Realm cultivators were also stunned.
Gu Cizong was the master of the Age Tower and ranked sixty-fifth.
Chen Fei, currently the hundredth ranked master, definitely could not choose Gu Cizong as his challenge target.
Now that the light had fallen on Gu Cizong, it could only mean that Chen Fei had challenged a very high rank, or even the highest possible, and the other masters were not present, finally causing it to land on Gu Cizong.
The other Sun Moon Realm cultivators in the public area also noticed this and immediately became noisy.
Rank sixty-five, if Chen Fei fails in the challenge, then there wouldn’t be much to discuss.
But if Chen Fei succeeds in the challenge, he would break a record in the history of the Age Tower, becoming the strongest in the history of the Qiankun Mansion in the later stages of the Sun Moon Realm.
“He was a bit too anxious, but since the Age Tower can restore injuries and exhaustion, a slightly smaller scope for an upward challenge was possible.”
Someone shook their head and said, while many others nodded in agreement.
Engaging with the Sun Moon Realm, especially at its peak, is a rare experience that greatly aids one’s ability to utilize their own strength.
The surroundings buzzed with conversation as Gu Cizong’s expression returned to being unbothered, taking a step and vanishing, entering directly into the Age Tower.
Far away, Hua Zhichun observed this scene, his eyes filled with a complex gaze.
