Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 1020: Chapter 911 – Breaking Limits

“`

Mastering a single secondary rule is enough to become a Sixth Stage Emperor Realm powerhouse.

According to what Jiang Chengji said in the past, those in the Emperor Realm can master multiple secondary rules and their strength varies based on the number of rules they control.

Of course, if you control an extremely powerful rule, you might be much stronger than those who master a number of secondary rules.

Even within the three thousand great daos, there is a hierarchy.

Before one becomes an Emperor Realm cultivator, every cultivator focuses on comprehending one secondary rule, and no one in the Rule Integration Realm cultivates multiple rules at the same time.

Because a cultivator’s energy is limited and different rules can easily cause conflicts with one another.

If it’s just different rule particles, there is no issue, just like the rule particles contained within Divine Powers.

But if it goes from rule particles to rule fragments, the conflict will intensify dramatically, and then it will become much more difficult to gain mastery over a complete secondary rule.

A single rule is relatively easier to comprehend, but contrasting with the simultaneous cultivation of various rules, surely the latter is stronger.

Just as within the Emperor Realm, normally those who master multiple secondary rules are much stronger.

“If the rules can be integrated, then after I break through to the Rule Integration Realm, I can still refine various martial arts. Even if the rules I cultivate become chaotic, integrating them together will solve the issue!”

Chen Fei’s gaze flickered slightly. His original plan, after breaking through to the Rule Integration Realm, was to focus on cultivating Celestial Suppression and strive to master the rule of strength.

Then he would cultivate an elemental power technique biased towards flesh power to ensure that he did not fall behind in his realm.

Rule Integration Realm does not solely focus on rules; essence force still needs to be cultivated.

Just like in the Sun Moon Realm, Divine Powers are not everything; essence force still plays a major part.

To use a crude analogy, Divine Powers are like weapons in the hands of martial artists, while essence force is like the physical quality of the artists themselves. Only when the two complement each other can they unleash great power.

The rules of the Rule Integration Realm and essence force follow the same principle.

Having only rules without sufficient essence force to drive them is like walking with a missing leg; you certainly won’t be fast.

The Yuan Clan’s martial art, Celestial Suppression, is very special, just like Suppressing Dragon Elephant before it; it solely strengthens the physique.

Yan did not give Chen Fei any elemental power techniques from the Yuan Clan; setting aside whether Chen Fei could cultivate them, even if he could, as soon as he successfully did, he wouldn’t need to make a move, as it would be blatantly obvious from his aura.

Then the likelihood of Chen Fei being discovered would be far too great, and the disadvantage would outweigh the benefits by far.

However, Celestial Suppression, being focused on the physique, does not reveal anything when inactive. Even in combat, its characteristic is very minimal; many techniques that focus on refining the body display similar characteristics.

The five thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals by Chen Fei’s side disappeared, and the panel for integrating rules appeared.

There was no use for it now, but Chen Fei still wanted to bring it to fruition first.

“No, wait, it will be of use after a while. Once I master the rule particles from the three Divine Powers, I’ll be able to integrate them!”

Upon breaking through to the Rule Integration Realm, uniting the three Divine Powers is the first barrier. Chen Fei originally thought to rely on the Desolate Night God Slaying Sword to gradually integrate them.

But now, with the ability to integrate rules, when the time comes, the rule particles from the three Divine Powers can instantly merge, naturally uniting the powers.

With this threshold crossed in an instant, Chen Fei outpaced it.

Moreover, compared to the uniting of the three Divine Powers by other pinnacle Sun Moon Realm cultivators, Chen Fei’s fusion directly at the rule level would result in his three Divine Powers unleashing even more formidable strength.

“This is getting less and less human!”

A thought flashed through Chen Fei’s mind, a slight smile appeared on his face, and then he closed his eyes to continue cultivating.

This exchange for five thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals was too valuable!

Time went by, and in the blink of an eye, three months passed.

The Sky Extreme Pills that Chen Fei had bought were all used up two months ago. In the middle of the process, Chen Fei left the cultivation room to exchange merit points for new Sky Extreme Pills at the Qiankun Treasure Depository.

Fearing that the merit points would be excessive, Chen Fei decisively used them to purchase the pills he needed, or precious treasures.

As for the daily merit points consumed by the cultivation room, the points granted by first place in the Age Tower were more than enough. Chen Fei did not need to worry about being unable to use the cultivation room.

Three months of relentless cultivation inflated Chen Fei’s source point space considerably. By his estimation, it had now reached half its potential progression.

Due to the Desolate Night God Slaying Sword and the strength of his three Divine Powers, the source point space Chen Fei would eventually cultivate was going to be much larger than that of other Sun Moon Realm martial artists.

The larger the source point space, the richer the essence force within Chen Fei’s body; simply using essence force to overwhelm opponents would produce tremendous power.

And as the progress of the source point space exceeded half, Chen Fei was finally able to continue comprehending his three Divine Powers.

The indiction of Great Completion for the three Divine Powers disappeared, replaced by a blurry state—this meant breaking the limit. Once the cultivation was complete and the source point space was also perfected, Chen Fei would be able to break directly into the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm.

After three months of day and night cultivation, apart from changes to the three Divine Powers and the source point space, Celestial Suppression, on which Chen Fei had placed great hopes, had finally stepped into the stage of perfection from Perfection.

In the cultivation room, Chen Fei stood still as sixteen warriors appeared around him.

As these warriors merged into Chen Fei’s body, each integration significantly increased his aura. By the end, Chen Fei’s aura seemed to be nearing a certain boundary.

The surging power thrashed wildly within Chen Fei’s body, attempting to break through the constraints of his flesh, but in the end, it was firmly locked down by Celestial Suppression.

Chen Fei slowly clenched his fist, sensing the power contained within, a power beyond belief.

Compared to Zhuo Anhua at the beginning, Chen Fei’s foundational strength had already surpassed him.

If the two were to fight now, Chen Fei wouldn’t need Body Dissolution and would undoubtedly emerge as the victor.

Chen Fei dispersed the power within his body, and his aura gradually returned to calm.

This particular state required Chen Fei to expend a tremendous amount of essence, energy, spirit, and soul, with merely the elemental force of the Source Point Space proving insufficient.

To achieve a balance, it was necessary to continue expanding the Source Point Space, with reaching the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm deemed just right.

However, by that time, if Chen Fei were to continue cultivating Celestial Suppression to the Great Completion realm and merge more warriors, the duration of combat in his extreme state would still be rather brief.

Chen Fei sat down cross-legged again, took out a Sky Extreme Pill, placed it in his mouth, and closed his eyes to cultivate.

At the human race’s border, where the Glass Space had collided with the Return to Nothing Realm.

The Glass Space had already diminished by more than thirty percent, a result of the Return to Nothing Realm digesting and devouring the Glass Space.

In the end, the entire Glass Space would be consumed by the Return to Nothing Realm, which was its ultimate fate.

Over three months, emperors of various races had continually made moves, vying for the Rule Crystals within the Glass Space.

As for whether this would cause many Rule Crystals to shatter, it was no longer within the considerations of these emperors.

The balance within the Glass Space had been broken, and those of the Sun Moon Realm would no longer set foot within it.

Members of the Glass Clan in the Rule Integration Realm forcibly refined the irregularities in the space, but it turned out to be far more difficult than they had imagined.

Even if they had gone through extreme hardships to refine an irregularity, with an emperor’s counterattack, that member of the Glass Clan’s Rule Integration Realm would be directly suppressed.

The might of an Emperor Realm far exceeded what the Glass Clan in the Rule Integration Realm could have imagined.

After all, back in the Glass Space, they had been the most potent force, but only at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm and had never witnessed how truly terrifying the Emperor Realm could be.

The Glass Clan’s initial plan had been shattered, losing the conditions to negotiate with other races.

Lowering their stance, they began to seek assimilation into other races, but which race to join became a significant issue.

Joining a certain race meant taking along the precious treasures of the Glass Space, which other races would struggle to accept, potentially leading to being targeted by everyone.

Without the precious treasures, merely taking the Glass Clan would be manageable.

The human race was an option, as were the Ice Race and the Evil Clans, but other races would be slightly weaker by comparison.

However, at this moment, the emperors of the races outside the Glass Space weren’t much concerned with whom the Glass Clan allied with.

Although there were a few at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm, they were not of the same race, so their support didn’t add much.

The emperors were now waiting for the Glass Space to be torn and devoured by the Return to Nothing Realm, during which process a point would arrive where a surge of Dimension Origins would spill out.

Compared to other ordinary lower realms, the Dimension Origins of a space like the Glass Space, capable of accommodating the Rule Integration Realm, were exceedingly rare and considered the most valuable supreme treasure of the entire Glass Space.

In comparison, the Rule Crystals were an entire class beneath.

The border of the human race had entered an even more silent peace, but this tranquility would be shattered by the arrival of that point.

The scramble for Dimension Origins would inevitably lead to fierce battles, and it was hard to say who would be the ultimate winner.

Time kept passing, and the focus of the different races remained on the Glass Space.

Inside Qiankun Mansion, Chen Fei was cultivating according to the established rhythm.

In the blink of an eye, another three months had passed.

The Divine Power of Planting Beans into Soldiers was the first to reach its limit, with Chen Fei gaining complete control over the rule particles inside.

Under this influence, both Indestructible Vision and the God Slaying Sword solidified in an instant, as if they were about to merge with the Source Point Space.

Under this state, trying to continue comprehending these two divine powers would become much harder.

However, Chen Fei relied on the panel, and the skill level of the two divine powers still grew methodically.

Five days later, Indestructible Vision reached its limit, causing a ripple to spread through the Source Point Space, and the speed at which it devoured the medicinal power of the Sky Extreme Pill and the vital energy of heaven and earth dramatically increased.

Merely half a day later, the God Slaying Sword reached its limit, causing the entire Source Point Space to tremble violently, but it was immediately suppressed by the power of Celestial Suppression, then returning to stability.

The Source Point Space still lacked a small portion to expand to its limit, but now, influenced by the breakthroughs of the three divine powers, rule particles quivered within a three-foot radius around Chen Fei, with the tremendous vital energy of heaven and earth rushing wildly towards him.

The Source Point Space expanded at an astonishing rate, and after an hour, it reached its limit.

Chen Fei’s essence, energy, spirit, and soul began to tremble and ascended!
