Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 894:1 Am the Peak

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Using the power of the Nine Divine Palaces within the Mountain Sea Realm, he reversed himself at the cost of having over half of his divine palaces shattered, re-entering the void to gain a new talent.

If successful, his divine palaces should be restored to their original state. Failure would mean at the very least a setback to the early stage of the Mountain Sea Realm, with no chance of recovery for the rest of his life.

This secret technique is present in the foundational techniques of the seven great Sacred Lands. The Nine Heavens Stellar Technique that Chen Fei forged naturally includes this one, known as Reversal of the Stars.

Compared to the original foundational techniques of the Sacred Lands, Reversal of the Stars is more domineering, directly shattering eight divine palaces and forcefully tearing through the void.

This is a move that seeks life from death; without immense determination, success is virtually impossible.

For Chen Fei, using Reversal of the Stars is less perilous because of his inviolable divine talent.

Chen Fei might shatter eight divine palaces and immediately have them restored by his divine talent. To re-enter the void, he would likely need to slightly suppress his inviolable divine talent.

Chen Fei made hand seals, causing the nine divine palaces within him to tremble slightly, with cracks appearing on them.

Suddenly, Chen Fei paused slightly, coming to a stop.

“With the Nine Star Chain, will three illusory divine palaces be created? Can these three illusory divine palaces be endowed with talent?”

This thought ignited a surge of excitement in Chen Fei’s heart, as the potential value of this idea was quite astonishing.

Now, with ten talents, Reversal of the Stars could add one more talent to his physical body.

If the three illusory divine palaces could each generate an additional talent, that would make a total of fourteen talents.

Sacred land prodigies can only possess six talents in total. If Chen Fei had fourteen talents, it would be extraordinarily absurd.

Of course, Chen Fei is already invincible in the Mountain Sea Realm.

Adding so many more talents would still leave him invincible.

But if he could break through to the Sun Moon Realm and fuse fourteen talents into one divine seed, the potential of this divine seed would be enormous.

This would be the foundation for enlightenment and a powerful force that Chen Fei could rely on in the Sun Moon Realm.

Chen Fei took a deep breath, calming his mind.

To endow the three illusory divine palaces created by the Nine Star Chain with talent, there is a problem that needs to be solved.

The state of the Nine Star Chain must be maintained at all times until he breaks through to the Sun Moon Realm. If it disperses, the three talents obtained would vanish.

During previous battles, Chen Fei had already used the Nine Star Chain as a regular technique without much strain.

However, even the most ordinary technique consumes vital energy, spirit, and soul. Chen Fei can use Nine Star Chain for several hours or even a whole day.

But maintaining Nine Star Chain for months is impossible due to insufficient absorption of natural and cosmic energy.

“Simply having an unceasing talent is not enough. It seems I need to take the Heaven Swallowing talent as well.”

Chen Fei’s gaze shifted. Adding the Heaven Swallowing talent, which would bring a surge of natural and cosmic energy, could help him maintain Nine Star Chain.

Besides the talents of Rebirth and Heaven Swallowing, Chen Fei was considering two more talents. However, he wanted to see where the Heart of Sincerity would guide him.

The Heart of Sincerity had already proven its power in the void, with talents like Heaven’s Overlord Blood being among the top tier.

If it were up to Chen Fei alone, he wouldn’t be able to find such talents.

Chen Fei focused his mind. Nine rays of starlight flashed across his body, and in an instant, three illusory divine palaces appeared within him, resonating with the other nine divine palaces.

Chen Fei made hand seals again and reactivated Reversal of the Stars.

Whether it succeeds now depends on what happens next in the void.

The idea of endowing the three illusory divine palaces with talents is only a concept, and it seems less reliable than the physical body bearing talents.

However, since the Heart of Sincerity only slightly trembled rather than giving a frantic warning, there is likely some room for operation.

As the seals appeared, fine cracks appeared on the eight divine palaces. In the next moment, the eight divine palaces were completely shattered.

Terrifying vital energy, spirit, and soul instantly filled Chen Fei’s body.

The various talents emitted a hazy light. Although the divine palaces were shattered, the talents could still temporarily remain, continuously exerting their effects.

The talents of Adamantine Body, Unblemished Divine Vision, Heaven’s Overlord Blood, and Prison Suppression firmly locked all vital energy, spirit, and soul within his body, while Unblemished Divine Vision began to rapidly repair the damage.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the shattered eight divine palaces had already been half restored.

Chen Fei’s expression grew serious as he removed the Heaven’s Overlord Blood talent, intending to place it into his physical body. However, he suddenly felt a slight tremor in the Heart of Sincerity.

With a moment’s thought, Chen Fei decided to put down the Heaven’s Overlord Blood talent and instead extracted the Endless Regeneration, placing it into the illusory divine palaces.

The process went smoothly without any obstacles.

Chen Fei’s eyes lit up as he then placed the Divine Blessing and Teleportation talents into the other two illusory divine palaces.

With the talents now residing in them, the three illusory divine palaces became clear and visible, though the pressure on Chen Fei’s vital energy, spirit, and soul increased significantly.

Previously, Chen Fei was concerned about not being able to disperse the Nine Star Chain, fearing the loss of talents.

Now, with the talents settled, he realized that it was no longer a matter of whether he wanted to disperse the Nine Star Chain. It was simply that it couldn’t be dispersed at all.

Dispersing the Nine Star Chain would be akin to exploding his own divine palaces, resulting in severe injuries and damage to his most essential and foundational source.

After handling the three illusory divine palaces, Chen Fei placed the Heaven’s Overlord Blood talent into his physical body.

Compared to placing the talent in the illusory palaces, inserting it into the physical body felt cumbersome.

Fortunately, it was merely difficult, not impossible. After some effort, the Heaven’s Overlord Blood talent was finally integrated into his body.

With a sigh of relief, Chen Fei moved the talents and, with his soul elevated, carried ten talents and twelve divine palace phantoms. He suddenly broke through the barrier and stepped into the void.

Breaking into the void was much easier than Chen Fei had imagined.

Guided by the Heart of Sincerity, Chen Fei flew forward.

As before, he deviated from the main route, entering the lengthy, empty realm, then passed through the barrier into the talent area of other races.

Having shattered the divine palaces in reversal, Chen Fei’s soul power had reached its peak state, allowing him to feel no weakness whatsoever here.

After flying a distance, Chen Fei saw the light clusters from before.

He approached, grasped the Endless Regeneration, and tried to throw it into the divine palace phantoms behind him.

No issues; it was smooth.

Chen Fei then grabbed the Heaven Swallowing talent and threw it into the divine palace phantoms as well. It worked just fine!

Under normal circumstances, entering the void would only allow for one talent to be taken; more would be beyond the capacity of the soul, and there wouldn’t be extra divine palaces to place the talents in.

But Chen Fei’s current state was clearly not normal.

With the reversal of shattered divine palaces, he was grasping that elusive one.

Carrying two new talents increased the pressure on Chen Fei’s soul, but the strength of his soul at this moment made no difference to his actions.

Following the guidance of the Heart of Sincerity, Chen Fei initially expected to continue flying forward. However, to his surprise, the path given by the Heart of Sincerity was to return.

Chen Fei, puzzled, nevertheless followed the path provided.

After traversing another expanse of nothingness and passing through a barrier, he returned to the human talent area.

He passed by several light clusters, and after a moment, he stopped, surprised to see two light clusters before him.

The talents were Sky Piercer and Imprisonment.

Within the light clusters, the figure of the Six-Legged Dragon Elephant was clearly visible. This was a talent exclusive to the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, which Chen Fei had not chosen before.

Other talents offered Chen Fei greater enhancements than these two exclusive ones.

Sky Piercer increased attack sharpness, while Imprisonment was an advanced version of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s field, enhancing the Suppressing Dragon Elephant Force.

Chen Fei hadn’t expected that the Heart of Sincerity would direct him to these two talents.

“Strengthen the Suppressing Dragon Elephant to withstand the power of fourteen talents?”

Chen Fei’s physical strength was already formidable, due in part to the Adamantine Body talent, but fundamentally supported by his martial arts realm and the Suppressing Dragon Elephant talent.

Especially the Suppressing Dragon Elephant talent, which made Chen Fei’s physique far surpass the usual peak of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Without hesitation, Chen Fei grabbed Sky Piercer and placed it into the divine palace phantoms behind him. He then took the Imprisonment talent and flew back to the starting point.

A short while later, Chen Fei stood at the departure position, looking back at the talent void. This would likely be his last visit here.

In the Sun Moon Realm, the first divine ability comes from the fusion of talents. Other divine abilities do not have such convenience. According to the Stellar Divine Technique’s Sun and Moon Chapter, cultivating other divine abilities requires different methods.

Chen Fei glanced at the starry sky, smiled slightly, and turned to leave.

In the Tingfeng Pavilion’s secret chamber.

Chen Fei’s eyes opened wide, as immense power descended from the void, causing his body to tremble violently.

With four new talents arriving, it was undoubtedly a tremendous force, but it also came with an extreme burden.

The shattered divine palaces, under the effect of the Unblemished Divine Vision talent, were restored to their original state in the blink of an eye.

However, Chen Fei felt his body becoming incredibly heavy, as if a mountain were pressing down on him, making it hard to move. At the same time, his vital energy, spirit, and soul were depleting at an alarming rate.

Fourteen talents on one person were indeed an extreme exaggeration.

Suddenly, the talents of Prison Suppression, Sky Piercer, and Imprisonment resonated with each other, and a six-legged Dragon Elephant’s phantom appeared behind Chen Fei.

In an instant, it felt as if Chen Fei’s body had enlarged several times, and the immense pressure from the fourteen talents was significantly reduced.

Chen Fei’s trembling body gradually stabilized.

No wonder the two exclusive Suppressing Dragon Elephant talents were chosen. Without Sky Piercer and Imprisonment, even if Chen Fei wasn’t overwhelmed by the power of fourteen talents, he would likely suffer severe damage to his vital energy.
