Chapter 935: Divine-like Evilness

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Brother Hua, do you think Chen Fei can really win all twelve matches?”

Several top experts at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm from the Sky Sea branch gathered, their eyes fixed on the arena. One of them whispered to Hua Zhichun.

In general, preliminary matches at the early stage of the Sun Moon Realm rarely attract the attention of peak experts. For them, the level is too low to be of any a.s.sistance to their own progress.

Today was an exception. Chen Fei’s challenge to twelve opponents had become the talk of the entire Qiankun Mansion. Even those just looking for some excitement came to watch.

As the bookmaker for this Sky Sea branch betting pool, Hua Zhichun had to be here in person.

“He’s fighting them one by one, so it shouldn’t be a problem. But now he’s fighting three at once,” Hua Zhichun said, frowning.

If Chen Fei were to win all twelve matches, he would be the biggest winner, earning over three thousand merit points in an instant.

As the bookmaker, Hua Zhichun would also earn some, but he couldn’t bear such a large bet alone.

It required the combined contributions of many peak experts in the Sun Moon Realm; otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough funds to cover it.

The final gains distributed among everyone would be minimal compared to Chen Fei’s three thousand merit points.

Any peak expert in the Sun Moon Realm would envy such a large number of merit points.

Moreover, not everyone in the Qiankun Mansion was a gambler. In fact, only a small portion of people were interested in gambling.

Most people placed their bets just for fun, betting a few merit points for the sake of partic.i.p.ation.

No one, like Chen Fei, would wager all of their merit points.

Regardless, if Chen Fei won all twelve matches, he would profit significantly. Although others might lose a substantial amount, they would still benefit from the situation.

But now, Chen Fei was fighting three opponents simultaneously. If he lost, how would he continue?

It wasn’t just about his morale; Chen Fei had even staked his merit points in their betting pool.

In other words, if Chen Fei were seriously injured, he wouldn’t even have the merit points needed for treatment from the Qiankun Mansion and would have to fight while wounded!

“This is too reckless, completely unnecessary,” others nodded in agreement.

Aside from the betting pool, as members of the Sky Sea branch, they considered themselves a small collective.

If Chen Fei could successfully challenge all twelve opponents, it would bring honor to the Sky Sea branch.

However, Chen Fei’s current actions only added difficulties for himself.

Hua Zhichun and others thought Chen Fei was too ambitious, and other observers from the Sun Moon Realm shared the same view.

If Chen Fei fought one opponent at a time, based on his recent performance, victory seemed almost certain. But suddenly fighting three opponents at once greatly increased the difficulty.

After his previous match with Sikong Jun, the outcome seemed almost settled. Now, the suspense had returned.

The most pleased were those who had placed large bets, as they suddenly saw a glimmer of hope for a win.

The minds of those in the Sun Moon Realm around were diverse, but on the arena, Shen Yongding and his two companions had cast aside all distractions and were fully focused on Chen Fei.

With three people attacking him, if Chen Fei still managed to defeat them, it would be quite embarra.s.sing.

Therefore, they not only had to win but had to win in a spectacular manner.

Shen Yongding and the others’ auras suddenly intensified as they all transformed their divine seeds into complete divine abilities.

From a certain perspective, three individuals with complete divine abilities at the early stage of the Sun Moon Realm could be regarded as comparable to one at the mid-stage of the Sun Moon Realm.

“Please!” Chen Fei said with a cupped fist salute.

“Please!” Shen Yongding and his companions replied in kind.

As their words fell, the three of them instantly disappeared from their original positions, and a colossal aura pressed down upon Chen Fei.

“Freeze!”

Rong Zhongrui, standing a mile away from Chen Fei, manifested a vast ocean behind him. This was the Bitter Sea, the rumored Sea of Despair.

One could not simply leap over the Bitter Sea; anyone wishing to cross it had to enter the water themselves.

However, the Bitter Sea was boundless. Once one stepped into it, an overwhelming pressure would surge, rendering one immobile, eventually leading to despair and death.

While Rong Zhongrui’s Divine Ability was not yet capable of achieving such a feat, within the same rank, the Bitter Sea could still confine a person, rendering them immobile.

As the waves of the Bitter Sea appeared around Chen Fei and he made no move to resist, Rong Zhongrui couldn’t help but show a hint of satisfaction.

Arrogant, indeed—he doesn’t dodge or evade! But it’s not just him; there are also Shen Yongding and Du Quanzhi.

Although Shen Yongding and his companions had never worked together before, as the top early-stage Sun Moon Realm experts from their respective branches, they knew how to coordinate their efforts to maximize their combat effectiveness.

At this moment, seeing Rong Zhongrui successfully confine Chen Fei, Shen Yongding directed his sword forward. A ma.s.sive piece of celestial wood descended from the sky, pressing down on Chen Fei.

The Celestial Wood was said to be the pivotal support of the entire world, capable of being used for confinement, defense, or attack. Shen Yongding used it to further enclose Chen Fei.

As long as Chen Fei remained immobilized, he would have to endure the combined a.s.sault of the three of them.

When that time came, the scales of victory would undoubtedly tip in their favor.

“Zha!”

Du Quanzhi took a deep breath and uttered a single syllable.

This was a sound that echoed throughout the world at the dawn of creation. It was unknown who made it or from where it originated.

Legend had it that the world was cleaved by a divine being, and the first sound made by this deity during the creation was this very syllable.

Thus, this sound possessed the formidable power to open the heavens and earth.

While Du Quanzhi had not reached such a level, his Divine Ability could directly penetrate the physical body to attack the soul.

The soul was crucial whether in the Sun Moon Realm or the Rule Integration Realm. Any damage to it would affect the entire person’s strength.

Chen Fei looked up at the surrounding waves of the Bitter Sea, the descending Celestial Wood, and the surging soul attack, and couldn’t help but smile.

If the three had attacked him directly, Chen Fei might have had to maneuver more. However, with two of them attempting to seal him and one attacking his soul, the pressure he faced was significantly reduced.

Soul attacks were powerful and hard to resist when they penetrated the physical body and targeted the soul directly.

Yet, because the attack had to pa.s.s through the body to reach the soul, its power would inevitably diminish somewhat.

In such a situation, others might either rely on mental defenses to withstand the attack or launch their own soul attacks to neutralize it.

Chen Fei’s divine abilities integrated his essence, energy, and soul into a cohesive whole, allowing them to transform into one another.

To some extent, Chen Fei’s defenses were unified—his physical defenses were as strong as his soul defenses.

For Chen Fei, an attack that involved damaging a portion of his power through his physical body to reach his soul was the weakest form of attack.

As for Shen Yongding and Rong Zhongrui’s attempts to confine him, these were ineffective against Chen Fei’s real body.

Although they possessed complete divine abilities, the vital energy they used to activate their abilities was still at the early Sun Moon Realm level, so their confinement couldn’t hold against Chen Fei’s Real body.

Chen Fei took a step forward, and he instantly vanished from his location. The Bitter Sea waves and Celestial Wood appeared as mere illusions before him, unable to obstruct him in any way.

When Chen Fei reappeared, he was already in front of Du Quanzhi. The Qianyuan Sword struck out instantly, and the Dust Giant Body behind him mirrored the motion, bringing down immense force from the heavens.

To maximize the effect of their divine abilities, Shen Yongding and his companions were not standing together but were s.p.a.ced out in different positions.

They were on the arena to defeat Chen Fei, not to defend themselves.

Had they remained grouped together, they might have been safer, but psychologically, it would imply that they were inferior to Chen Fei alone.

If that were the case, they would not need to fight in the arena; they could simply concede.

Thus, when Shen Yongding and Rong Zhongrui saw Chen Fei suddenly appear before Du Quanzhi, they were unable to a.s.sist in time.

Chen Fei’s way of breaking through the Bitter Sea and Celestial Wood was too sudden. They had not antic.i.p.ated that someone could treat their divine abilities as insignificant.

Even if Chen Fei used brute force to break through their abilities, they could understand and prepare for that.

Du Quanzhi sensed the power in the Dust Law Sword. Even before the blade had truly descended, his soul was already in a frenzy of warning.

“Zha!”

A fierce expression appeared in Du Quanzhi’s eyes as he released a sound even more intense than before.

With Du Quanzhi’s roar, his own skin and flesh began to crack and turn into a mist of blood, as if he was already suffering the damage himself.

An intangible wave materialized into a blurred phantom that spanned the heavens and the earth.

This deity-like figure wielded an axe and silently roared before striking forward.

“Wung!”

The Dust Law Sword momentarily clashed with the phantom. Chen Fei felt a powerful tearing force directly impacting his soul.

For other early-stage Sun Moon Realm pract.i.tioners, their souls would likely have been torn apart by now.

However, for Chen Fei, his essence, energy, and soul flowed seamlessly, allowing any damage to his soul to be distributed across his entire body.

As long as his essence, energy, and soul remained intact, Chen Fei would always be in peak condition.

Thus, to those watching from outside the arena, the Dust Law Sword merely paused briefly before sweeping away the phantom and striking Du Quanzhi.

“Bang!”

The overwhelming force of the Dust Law Sword struck Du Quanzhi, who had no resistance and was directly smashed into the arena floor.

Amidst the explosion, Du Quanzhi was rebounded several dozen meters high by the arena floor before crashing down again.

His body was nearly shattered, and Du Quanzhi instantly fell into a heavily wounded and near-death state.

Du Quanzhi had hoped to trade injuries to give Shen Yongding and Rong Zhongrui a chance to severely injure Chen Fei.

Instead, Du Quanzhi himself was on the brink of death, while Chen Fei remained unharmed.
