Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“There’s a battle going on inside. Your sudden entrance could lead to accidental injury,” Chen Fei looked at Tong Wenxuan with a hint of a smile on his face.

“You must be joking! My closest friends are in there. Are you suggesting that I can’t enter?”

Tong Wenxuan sneered and was about to draw his sword to deal with the person in front of him. Suddenly, two powerful auras emanated from the dense forest, followed by a tremendous collision.

Even though they were over a mile apart, the shockwaves of the battle still reached them. The ground trembled violently, as if a dragon was rolling beneath it, a terrifying sight.

Tong Wenxuan’s expression changed slightly. This level of power and impact, even in the normal state, was beyond what Tao Shiye could achieve.

In other words, Tao Shiye must have been pushed to the brink of destruction?

What kind of dire situation could make the proud Tao Shiye choose to destroy his own acupoints to save his life?

Tong Wenxuan looked at the person in front of him, and his hand holding the sword hesitated for a moment.

In the dense forest,

Chen Fei took a few steps back, channeling his strength into the ground. This was the first time Chen Fei had retreated during this battle, mainly because Tao Shiye’s sword was incredibly powerful.

Fortunately, Chen Fei’s strength would only grow stronger at this moment. In his Blood Ignition state, his power had reached an unprecedented level. Moreover, with the support of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique, he had not suffered any injuries from Tao Shiye’s attack, despite taking a few steps back.

On the other hand, Tao Shiye’s face was as pale as paper, and both his energy and spirit had dropped to the lowest point.

Without even glancing at Chen Fei, Tao Shiye kicked off and rushed out of the dense forest. Right now, his only chance of survival was to find Tong Wenxuan.

Just now, I heard the sound, and Tong Wenxuan was clearly nearby. Why hasn’t he arrived yet?

Chen Fei stepped back with his right foot, and in a flash of lightning, he appeared in front of Tao Shiye, his sword aimed at Tao Shiye’s neck.

Since they had chosen to be enemies, Chen Fei had no intention of sparing him. They were already mortal enemies, and in such a situation, only one of them could truly fall for it to end.

“Don’t kill me!”

*Bang!*

Chen Fei’s sword struck Tao Shiye’s spiritual sword. Tao Shiye’s arms made a sound as if they were under unbearable pressure. The next moment, blood splattered, and the high-grade spiritual sword flew off at an angle, embedding itself into the ground, emitting a ringing sound.

Tao Shiye was sent flying by the tremendous force, rolling over dozens of times on the ground before coming to a stop, looking disheveled.

“Kill me, and Heavenly Sun Mansion will never let you go. You won’t escape death in the end!” Tao Shiye struggled to lift his head and shouted loudly as he saw the shoe sole in front of him.

“If I spare you, will our grievances come to an end?”

“Yes, we have no more grievances!” Tao Shiye nodded vigorously.

“You don’t even believe that yourself, do you?” Chen Fei said softly.

Tao Shiye was about to reply when he suddenly felt a lightness in his head. He tried to speak but found himself unable to. Realizing a possible outcome, fear filled Tao Shiye’s eyes.

There was still a better future ahead of him, so how did it come to this?

Chen Fei stood in front of Tao Shiye, and under the ritualistic technique of slaughtering spirits, spiritual essence flowed into the Qianyuan Sword. Suddenly, Chen Fei’s figure violently retreated, and a blood imprint rushed out of Tao Shiye’s body, heading straight for Chen Fei.

God Slayer, God Slayer, God Slayer!

The Qianyuan Sword, infused with the Godslayer Sword, struck towards the blood imprint one after another.

Chen Fei had taken the time to research these vengeful blood imprints and came to the conclusion that they were created through a unique mental technique. Therefore, to break them, using a similar mental technique was the most effective approach.

However, the person who created the blood imprints had naturally considered this, so if you simply attacked with mental techniques, the blood imprints might indeed disperse, but they would directly adhere to your own mental techniques.

Mental techniques were connected to one’s own consciousness, and once they stuck to a mental technique, your consciousness would inevitably be tainted by a bit of the blood imprint. And once it was tainted, clearing it became extremely difficult, requiring a significant amount of time and effort to remove.

But Chen Fei’s Godslayer Sword was a shadow formed by mental projection, a sword that sliced shadows with the power of consciousness. It was just an illusion and couldn’t connect to Chen Fei’s own consciousness.

Five consecutive strikes of the Godslayer Sword shattered the blood imprints in mid-air.

However, the blood imprints didn’t disappear immediately. Instead, they transformed into a column of blood-red light shooting into the sky. The blood light wasn’t intense, and its aura wasn’t strong, but it was highly conspicuous.

This blood light was signaling to the people of Heavenly Sun Mansion in the vicinity that someone had been killed at this location.

The change in the blood imprints took Chen Fei by surprise. At this point, shattering the blood light wouldn’t be of any use. People from Heavenly Sun Mansion within several tens of miles around would likely have sensed the situation here.

Chen Fei waved his hand, and a sword energy swept across, reducing Tao Shiye to ashes.

Chen Fei retrieved the high-grade spiritual sword from a distance, along with several pieces of elemental stones and elixirs. Using the Godslayer Sword, he completely erased his own aura from the scene.

As a precaution, Chen Fei even used his Sword Return Eye to backtrack, and then continued to use the Godslayer Sword to eliminate any traces of his aura. This was a thorough removal of the aura from this location.

With everything done, even if others had the same technique, they wouldn’t be able to determine Chen Fei’s true aura.

After completing these actions, Chen Fei’s figure flickered, and he ran towards the distance. He couldn’t afford to stay any longer; Heavenly Sun Mansion’s experts would be arriving soon.

Outside the dense forest,

Tong Wenxuan was still hesitating when suddenly, he saw the blood – red light shooting into the sky from the dense forest. Tong Wenxuan was left dumbfounded.

Tao Shiye had ruptured his own acupoints, and yet he had been killed within moments? Not a trace of the blood imprint had even adhered to the enemy; it had only left behind this blood light.

What kind of terrifying opponent had Tao Shiye provoked?

A peak-level Aperture Tempering realm cultivator?

Tao Shiye shouldn’t be so foolish. Challenging a peak-level Aperture Tempering realm cultivator at the advance Aperture Tempering realm stage would be a surefire way to his own demise.

But if the opponent was also at the advance Aperture Tempering realm stage, how could they cleanly kill Tao Shiye like this? Tao Shiye’s strength was considerably higher than his own.

Thinking about this, Tong Wenxuan, for some reason, felt a sense of relief that he hadn’t rushed in.

Chen Fei’s clone glanced at Tong Wenxuan and then dissipated into the air.

From the beginning to the end, the clone had not revealed a trace of its aura, so there was no need to worry about leaving behind any flaws.

In less than half a moment, several figures appeared in the dense forest. All of them were Aperture Tempering realm cultivators from Heavenly Sun Mansion.

Seeing the signs of battle around, everyone fell silent.

“That’s Senior Tao’s aura!” someone whispered softly, the aura contained in the blood light was quite obvious.

“The aura of the person who killed Senior Tao can’t be found!”

“Thief! You think you can escape after killing members of our Heavenly Sun Mansion?”

“The news has been sent back to the mansion. More people will be coming soon.”

A sound of breaking through the air echoed, and a powerful aura descended from the sky; it was Ning Pusheng, the peak-level Aperture Tempering realm cultivator.

At this moment, Ning Pusheng’s face remained expressionless, but everyone could see the anger in his eyes. Tao Shiye had the potential to grow into a peak-level Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, and now he had been killed here.

This loss was devastating even for Heavenly Sun Mansion.

Hum!*

In Ning Pusheng’s sea of consciousness, his mental power surged, and his sword intent spread throughout the surroundings, causing the ground to be forcibly dug up to three feet deep.

Ning Pusheng was determined to find the aura of the person who had killed Tao Shiye. Without an aura, there was no way to track them. But no matter how he stimulated his sword intent, he still couldn’t find any trace of the killer.

It was as if this person didn’t exist.

The radiance in Ning Pusheng’s eyes grew stronger, and those around him felt the pressure and involuntarily stepped back.

After a while, Ning Pusheng withdrew his sword intent, but he still couldn’t find the aura. Even though Ning Pusheng had refined his sword intent and made it as subtle as possible, there was still no clue.

“Go to the mansion and fetch the Sky-Searching Mirror!” Ning Pusheng said in a deep voice.

“Yes!” someone replied with a bow and hurried towards the direction of Heavenly Sun Mansion.

Half an hour later, a mirror appeared in Ning Pusheng’s hand.

The Sky-Searching Mirror could detect even the faintest and most subtle auras. It was typically used to search for auras with a time span of more than an hour.

Using the Sky-Searching Mirror for an event that had just occurred was unheard of.

Ning Pusheng was eager to see how the other party would conceal their aura
