Medical Sage

But this time, Chen Fei was prepared. In a scene somewhat similar to before, a cloud right in front of Zhen Yue’s escape trajectory suddenly exploded; terrifying Qi of Purple Firmament rampaged, blasting Zhen Yue into the air, coughing blood as he flew.

On the other side, those few from the Dark Demon Tower who had formed the Ninth Heavenly Layer Human Battle Formation, together with the Lord of Dark Demon Tower, all had their complexions turn deathly pale; some even spat out mouthfuls of fresh blood, their bodies almost unable to stand, about to fall from the sea of clouds.

Clearly, though this Ninth Heavenly Layer Human Battle Formation had granted them the weakest level of Minor Heavenly True Monarch combat power, its defensive power was still far from enough! Zhen Yue had only unleashed one full-powered strike, and they’d already collapsed, almost dying right then and there…

”Don’t push it too far… move!” On the other side, Zhen Yue, who had been blasted away by Chen Fei, blood at the corner of his mouth, stared at Chen Fei with clenched teeth and a hideous expression, letting out a low growl.

As time passed faster and faster, he grew more and more uneasy. As long as Qin Gong could run out from here, then outside that old codger definitely wouldn’t be able to stop him… as long as he couldn’t stop him, once that old codger came back, he was done for.

How was he supposed to face combat power equivalent to three Minor Heavenly True Monarchs alone? Wouldn’t that be certain death!

”Don’t you think it’s a little late to be saying that now? If I let you go, what happens to my situation?” Chen Fei’s face was just as cold; he wanted to keep the other side. This man and that fleeing Qin Gong both knew he had seized the Nirvana Blood Pool—if that news got out, how could he not become a target for everyone?

If that happened, it would truly be a headache! He naturally didn’t want to see that scene.

”Kill!” Zhen Yue’s teeth were about to crack from clenching; with a furious roar, his entire body surged with blood light, and then as if countless hurricanes and thunderclaps transformed into all manner of Fierce Beasts, they lunged out to attack, engulfing Chen Fei.

This blood-soaked, all-out method of Zhen Yue’s even made Chen Fei’s expression change slightly; he could barely hold on.

”Chi, chi…” Terrifying power swept over, pressing down from above him; with a puff, Chen Fei directly spat out pale-golden blood, making even the air in the void begin to burn.

Yet this spray of blood seemed to ignite the ferocity in Chen Fei’s bones. With a low growl, the purple-gold sword in his hand reversed and slashed out, piercing through everything as it lunged toward Zhen Yue. At once, a shocking collision filled the sky, brilliance everywhere carrying destructive power, utterly terrifying.

It was clear that when both fought with all their might, Chen Fei and Zhen Yue’s strength could be said to be on the same level, evenly matched!

However, as time slowly passed, Zhen Yue, whose heart was growing more flustered and uneasy, finally lost his rhythm first. The void quivered, Flawless Sword Intent descended, and the might of one sword directly opened a long bloody gash across his chest, deep to the bone, blood pouring out.

Zhen Yue’s eyes narrowed; enduring the intense pain, his gaze swept over Chen Fei with a sinister, vicious glare. The frenzied coldness in his eyes grew ever more dense. Looking at Chen Fei, his face full of murderous aura, he said grimly, ”I’ll say it one last time—move!”

”Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…” His only answer was hundreds of incomparably cold sword beams, piercing through the clouds and shredding the firmament, making Zhen Yue’s pupils contract fiercely. Then his eyes filled with an endless, icy, desperate determination to perish together.

Bang! Scarlet light, carrying turbulent wind and thunder qi, condensed into a giant hand that obliterated those incoming hundreds of sword lights, and then that giant hand, within the tightening of Chen Fei’s pupils, slammed viciously down onto his body, swatting him into the ground.

Roar!

Rumble, rumble, rumble…

Right after that, a wild surge of Qi of Purple Firmament shot into the sky, shattering that wave of power; yet even so, looking at Chen Fei’s current appearance, he was still in quite a miserable state. One arm had shattered inch by inch, bones broken, blood pouring down, looking as if it was just a hair’s breadth away from total destruction.

However, his fleshly body had now reached the Magical Treasure Level, and with the baptism of the Nirvana Blood Pool, as long as it wasn’t completely destroyed, wounds like this were still quite easy to recover from.

The next moment, Chen Fei’s broken arm writhed with blood and flesh, and in just an instant it had recovered to a perfectly new state. But at this moment, the blood color on Chen Fei’s face had still grown much paler, as if he’d suffered enormous depletion.

Seeing this scene, the twisted, hideous expression on Zhen Yue’s face deepened even further.

”Brat, remember this—you forced me!”

The next second, Zhen Yue spat out a cold voice, stabbing straight into Chen Fei’s heart.

At once, Chen Fei’s expression changed, sensing a strong unease.

But clearly, he was now an arrow on the bowstring and had to be loosed! There was no retreat.

”It’s just a fight. I, Chen Fei, will accompany you to the end!” By now he had also been truly enraged, so even knowing the other side was likely about to use a desperate trump card against him, he wasn’t afraid, speaking coldly.

”You said it yourself. If you die, don’t blame me.”

True Joy’s eyes were gloomy, filled with a blazing, icy cold light. The next instant, he felt a hair‑raisingly dangerous aura surging out from within his body. His figure slowly floated up, thin streams of blood seeping out from his back, gathering into an ancient pattern of wind and thunder in two colors, unfathomably deep.

And his body, as that blood flowed, also began to wither away bit by bit! This made Chen Fei’s eyes involuntarily narrow sharply.

”Burning life… this is a Forbidden Technique that burns life!?” Seeing this scene, those people of the Dark Demon Tower couldn’t help but cry out in uproar, their faces filled with terror.

A Minor Heavenly True Monarch Realm expert actually needed to burn his life just to unleash this method, this Forbidden Technique—how terrifying, how horrifying must it be? Was there even any need to question it?

”Brat, to be honest, for you to force me to use half my life to suppress and kill you today, even if you lose, you’ve got nothing to complain about!”

True Joy’s grim, ferocious low roar echoed in the sky, making everyone’s whole body involuntarily chill, hairs standing on end.

And in the very next instant, as if a long river of thunder filled with destruction had appeared, with boundless hurricanes intertwining over the arena, tearing apart the firmament, it howled out from his chest cavity, piercing through heaven and earth. In a flash, everyone froze where they stood, the world falling into stillness.

At the same time, True Joy’s slightly twisted, vicious laughter resounded between heaven and earth.

”Forbidden Technique: Ancient Thunder Sea Destroys the Firmament!”

The deathly low roar, the endless surge of the ancient river of thunder, and those hurricanes coiling in the sky tearing everything apart—this power formed by all of that was something that even True Monarch Realm figures called a Forbidden Technique! The fangs it now bared were indeed far too terrifying,

It was a suffocating fear beyond description, a horror beyond words...

In the distance, the people of the Dark Demon Tower, merely struck by the aftershocks of this terrifying Forbidden Technique from afar, felt as if they had been heavily smashed; they coughed blood and fell from the sky, their bodies seeming about to shatter apart… terrifying to such an extent.

And they were only at the very edge of this Divine Might, yet they ended up like this. As for Chen Fei, currently at the very center of this wave of destruction, locked firmly by that power—how terrifying the pressure he was enduring at this moment was, went without saying.

Bang! The roaring Ancient Thunder Sea surged down. Even Chen Fei, with that Magical Treasure Level body of his, was completely blown apart at this moment, blood splattering across the clouds, dyeing that region red.

”So strong…” His face stiffened as he drew a deep breath, yet before he had any time to catch it, wave after wave of even more horrifying destructive thunder and blood‑colored hurricane power once again poured down endlessly! It plunged him into destruction, close to death.

After all, this was a Forbidden Technique wrought by the other party staking half his life; its terror was such that even Dao Lord Zhengqing would likely have to temporarily avoid its edge. And now, he had already been drawn into it; how dangerous it was could be imagined.

In such a perilous situation, Chen Fei took a deep breath, understanding that he had to bring out all his methods to resist, otherwise, today he would likely have to leave his life here—and that would be truly unjust.

Whoosh, whoosh!

A jade‑white dragon emerged from his mouth at this moment, and in the blink of an eye, it grew with the wind, covering his entire body within… this was the Octagonal Mystic Tower. Then, in almost an instant, the Ancient Thunder Sea, permeated with endless destruction, flooded that region. The Octagonal Mystic Tower burst out with a blinding jade light, yet it still could not withstand the terror of this Forbidden Technique; it split inch by inch, and in the end, with a bang, exploded and turned into nothingness.

The Octagonal Mystic Tower—destroyed!

Chen Fei stood within the light of the Octagonal Mystic Tower as it shattered in an instant, once again shrouded by the boundless destructive power between heaven and earth! The infinite thunder tore at his flesh, while the hurricanes seemed intent on blowing his soul out, extinguishing it, icy cold beyond compare.

Yet at this moment, a thick layer of purple‑gold armor had already appeared on his body, filled with Immortal radiance, fiercely clashing against that destructive power… this was the secret technique within the True Technique of Purple Firmament Judgement—the Immortal Armor.

The destructive power surged against the Immortal Armor like an endless tide, twisting and wrecking it, tearing it to tatters, yet still it could not completely destroy it. And it was precisely by staking everything on the defensive power of this Immortal Armor that Chen Fei finally endured it by sheer grit… lasting until that power dissipated.

”What?” In the distance, the people of the Dark Demon Tower gaped in shock, as if unable to believe the reality of what they were seeing. Such a terrifying Forbidden Technique, and Chen Fei had actually endured it and not died?

”Impossible! Cough, cough…” True Joy, even more so, lost control of his emotions, unable to accept this scene. His eyes bulged as if to crack; the Forbidden Technique for which he’d staked half his life had actually failed to kill the other party—Chen Fei had actually withstood it!?

Looking again at Chen Fei at this moment, his body was covered in horrifying wounds, blood constantly coughed from his mouth, his face deathly pale, and even that Immortal Armor had shattered to the point where its original appearance could no longer be seen.

But no matter what, he had still endured the opponent’s terrifying killing move, and what’s more, he still retained some strength.

”Cough, cough… looks like, I won? Cough…” Chen Fei coughed blood as he looked at the other party, yet the corner of his mouth curled into a trembling smile. He hadn’t thought that today, he would actually be able to defeat a Minor Heavenly True Monarch Realm existence?

For him, this was a milestone of epoch‑making significance! A tremendous leap forward.
