Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

In such a surreal realm, finding the Evil origin undoubtedly proved extremely challenging because it could manifest anywhere, even within the tiles of a building.

Chen Fei’s eyes emitted a faint glimmer, employing Star Gazing Art!

But it didn’t end there; Chen Fei’s right hand passed over his own brow, a glimmer gathering in its midst, using Sword Return Eye!

Both techniques were simultaneously deployed, significantly enhancing Chen Fei’s perception of this illusion. At this moment, as Chen Fei looked at the approaching crowd, all that remained upon them was a shroud of black mist.

Clearly, the origin was not within them.

Chen Fei’s figure flickered, his gaze sweeping a radius of several hundred meters, methodically examining every corner of Pingyin County. The saying “digging three feet into the ground” probably couldn’t compare to Chen Fei’s current abilities.

Real Pingyin County wasn’t small, after all, it had been home to so many people in its prime. This illusion had faithfully recreated the true size of Pingyin County, making it vast indeed.

However, no matter how vast the area, it couldn’t withstand Chen Fei’s methodical search. Consequently, Chen Fei quickly found his target.

At this moment, chaos reigned within Pingyin County, with people rushing toward Chen Fei’s supposed location, one after another, akin to a zombie horde.

Despite their bodies breaking apart, their minds remained intact, showing an unwavering determination to reach Chen Fei.

From afar, it appeared as though they were like waves, one surging after another, all in a hurry to reach Chen Fei’s presence, to make contact with him more quickly.

Chen Fei’s figure flickered as he stood atop the head of a stone lion at a mansion.

“Boom!”

The mansion’s grand gate, even its walls, shattered instantly as a multitude of people rushed toward Chen Fei. Their faces were numb, but when their eyes locked onto Chen Fei, they were filled with deep-seated animosity.

Chen Fei remained composed, suddenly inserting his right hand into the head of the stone lion beneath his feet.

The dormant source, which had been motionless all along, was startled and vanished within the body of the stone lion in a flash.

In this environment, the Evil origin could move freely because this was its world. However, it hadn’t anticipated that Chen Fei would locate its source so quickly.

“Swish!”

A streak of sword light, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, plunged into the ground in the distance. Those nearby, shrouded in a cloud of black mist, dissipated in an instant.

Chen Fei arrived at the spot where the sword light had struck, and the Evil origin was trembling incessantly beneath it.

Chen Fei naturally knew that when the Evil origin was startled, it would attempt to flee, so he had prepared a countermeasure long ago.

“Crack!”

The sword light swirled, and the Evil origin shattered in an instant.

“Roar!”

A deafening roar echoed throughout the entire illusion, causing violent tremors within it. In the next moment, it shattered with a resounding crash.

The scene before him suddenly darkened, and Chen Fei’s eyes opened. He had returned to reality, the electromagnetic cannon still humming in his hand. Despite all the events that had just transpired, time in the real world seemed to stand still.

The mental confrontation had felt incredibly lengthy, but in reality, it might have been just a fleeting moment.

Chen Fei looked towards Pingyin County in the distance and noticed that its vitality had diminished somewhat.

The source within the illusion was only a small part of this Evil entity, but a source was a source, and any loss inflicted upon it was genuine damage.

What held greater significance for Chen Fei was that he had pinpointed the true location of this Evil entity.

Present-day Pingyin County could be considered a part of this Evil entity, but also, in times of desperation, it could be abandoned without hesitation.

Therefore, even if Chen Fei were to use the electromagnetic cannon to dismantle Pingyin County, it might not ultimately inflict significant harm on this Evil being.

However, at this moment, due to the recent encounter in the illusion, Chen Fei had directly locked onto the true location of this Evil entity within Pingyin County.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!”

The power of the bow and arrow in Chen Fei’s hand grew stronger, radiating with a dazzling light. Chen Fei gazed ahead, and in the next moment, he released the bowstring.

“Boom!”

A massive sonic burst cloud appeared behind Chen Fei, and the surrounding mountains, rocks, and trees were instantly swept away. Except for the spot where Chen Fei stood, which he protected, the surrounding ground seemed to disappear into thin air for a moment.

As soon as the sonic burst cloud emerged on Chen Fei’s side, the arrow had already collided with the walls of Pingyin County.

Black mist enveloped the city walls, and even a slight touch of it would turn an ordinary person’s flesh into blood. Cultivators in the Body Tempering realm could only withstand it for a moment.

Even Cultivators in the Aperture Tempering realm were unwilling to come into contact with such malevolent power.

However, now, when this black mist collided with the electromagnetic cannon, it didn’t even have a chance to put up a defense before being pierced through.

“Boom!”

“Roar!”

The sound of explosion and the roar nearly sounded simultaneously, and a massive hole pierced through Pingyin County from front to back. Electric sparks flickered on the hole, and the surrounding black mist was dissolved into wisps of smoke before it could approach.

The power of an absolute peak Aperture Tempering realm cultivator was evident, and the key was that this arrow had struck the Evil entity directly, leaving it no time to dodge.

With just this one arrow, Pingyin County’s vitality plummeted once more, and it was a rapid decline.

The Evil entity was indeed formidable, but it was by no means at the level of a peak Aperture Tempering realm cultivator. Therefore, being hit by such power didn’t immediately reduce it to ashes, but it was hanging on by a thread.

The wrought-iron longbow in Chen Fei’s hand turned to ashes, and he glanced at the dozen or so longbows on the ground. It seemed he wouldn’t need so many this time.

A new wrought-iron longbow fell into Chen Fei’s hand, and the electromagnetic sound resumed.

Pingyin County in the distance continued to tremble, and the Evil entity inside continued to flicker and change positions.

If it weren’t for the previous illusion, Chen Fei might not have been able to lock onto the Evil entity at this moment. But one could only say that everything had its own fate!

Several miles away.

A few figures stood on a hillside, gazing at the location of Pingyin County. They exchanged glances, unsure whether to advance or retreat.

“That power just now, was it at the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm?”

“It seems so, at least I can’t produce such a technique at this level. Brother Lu, can you?”

“I don’t have that kind of ability,” another person sighed and shook his head.

‘Well, this is for the best. Someone has beaten us to it. It’s fortunate to have this great menace removed!”

“You’re right.”

They all nodded, but in their eyes, there was still a hint of regret.

After all, they had gathered so many people with the intention of destroying Pingyin County and obtaining something valuable. However, upon arriving here, they unexpectedly encountered a peak Aperture Tempering realm expert.

Despite being several miles apart, they still felt the awe-inspiring power, which made them both fearful and intensely envious.

“Boom!”

Another explosion sounded, and in their perception, the Evil aura from Pingyin County disappeared completely.

“Just two moves!” someone sighed.

For a group that had gathered several people and had prepared for possible casualties, to see an entity of this level dealt with in just two moves in someone else’s hands was quite disheartening.

Being in the same Aperture Tempering realm, the difference in strength was truly astonishing.

“Let’s go.”

“All right, let’s go!”

The group exchanged glances. While they had an interest in getting to know such a powerful individual, they had no idea about this person’s temperament. Especially since they had arrived right after someone had dealt with the Evil entity, it could easily lead to misunderstandings. So, it was better to leave directly and avoid any further complications.

Another hole had appeared in the city walls of Pingyin County.

Chen Fei stood on the city wall, overlooking the entire Pingyin County, and suddenly, he felt a sense of deja vu.

Many years ago, Chen Fei had woken up for the first time in this place.

However, at that time, Chen Fei was of lowly status, just an unattached servant in a clinic. No one cared about him, whether he lived or died.

Or rather, no one paid any attention to him at all.

In Pingyin County, memories of various figures flashed through Chen Fei’s mind.

The once high and mighty Zhang family had perished, with only a few individuals managing to escape. A former lowly servant of the Zhang family had now exterminated the Evil entity that had devoured tens of thousands of people.

Chen Fei shook his head slightly, and his figure flickered, bringing him to a massive crater within the city.

The Evil entity had been pinned down by Chen Fei here, and within the crater, a crystal resembling amber was faintly shimmering.

Chen Fei’s duplicate picked up the crystal, finding nothing unusual.

The original Chen Fei brought it closer to his eyes, observing it for a moment before carefully infusing it with his elemental energy.

The crystal began to tremble faintly..
