Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 1099: Chapter 1055: Chess Game

This spirit material is quite mystical, its greatest characteristic being its ability to assist in comprehending martial arts.

When Chen Fei first obtained this spirit material, he was quite hopeful.

After all, it was the treasure that Sun Guangyuan had been obsessing over, one that could help him break through to the late stage of the Rule Integration Realm.

However, after Chen Fei seriously studied it, he found that although the spirit material was extraordinary, its effect on him was only mediocre.

The Scripture Scroll Soil imprints the martial arts one is cultivating onto itself, and then it begins to comprehend on its own.

It’s quite magical, as if the Scripture Scroll Soil possesses its own intelligence.

But in reality, the Scripture Scroll Soil does not have its own spirituality and can be regarded as an inanimate object.

Sun Guangyuan had been stuck at the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm for many years and was unable to penetrate this barrier, so he wanted to rely on the Scripture Scroll Soil to break through.

A Rule Crystal would certainly be more useful than this Scripture Scroll Soil, but the Ice Race and Evil Clans no longer had any Rule Crystals to give, so they could only provide this Scripture Scroll Soil.

Now Chen Fei earns ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals a day, and with his current insight and his panel’s help, his cultivating speed can be described as advancing by leaps and bounds. The Scripture Scroll Soil can’t even keep up with Chen Fei’s pace.

Therefore, just a few days after obtaining the Scripture Scroll Soil, Chen Fei set it aside, waiting for an appropriate time to sell it.

Of course, the Scripture Scroll Soil could also be used to its ultimate extent. Sun Guangyuan probably had this purpose in mind, as only by doing so could it possibly help him advance to the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm.

Chen Fei had no intention of doing so; after all, if he were to sell the Scripture Scroll Soil, it could at least fetch five hundred thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals, which would be a significant addition to Chen Fei’s purse.

The reason why Chen Fei was looking at the Scripture Scroll Soil now was that as he continued to cast the Planting Beans into Soldiers Divine Power, the Scripture Scroll Soil began to glow faintly.

Imprinted within the Scripture Scroll Soil at the moment was the Desolate Universe God Devouring Sword. As Chen Fei operated this martial art, the Scripture Scroll Soil resonated with it, and unique insights began to appear on its surface.

Chen Fei discovered that the Scripture Scroll Soil couldn’t keep up with his cultivating speed because, after cultivating for a day, when he looked at the scroll again, he realized that the insights displayed by the Scripture Scroll Soil were already comprehended and absorbed by himself.

More critically, many of the insights displayed on the surface of the scroll were wrong.

Being slower than himself and even having issues with accuracy, Chen Fei naturally set it aside after a few days.

For others in the Rule Integration Realm, the insights on the Scripture Scroll Soil still have significant referential value.

At this moment, Chen Fei was examining the content on the surface of the Scripture Scroll Soil, which comprised various thoughts related to the Planting Beans into Soldiers Divine Power.

The Planting Beans into Soldiers Divine Power had already been cultivated to Great Completion by Chen Fei back in the Sun Moon Realm.

In the Rule Integration Realm, the increase in the power of Planting Beans into Soldiers was more due to the uplift in Chen Fei’s basic power, the fusion of diverse fragments of rules, and the enhancement from his main martial art, the Desolate Universe God Devouring Sword.

In essence, the Planting Beans into Soldiers Divine Power was still the same template it had been in the Sun Moon Realm.

Without a doubt, there is still room for progress for the Planting Beans into Soldiers Divine Power, but Chen Fei had no time to ponder this Divine Power.

Whenever Chen Fei cultivates now, he focuses his efforts on Celestial Suppression, the Desolate Universe God Devouring Sword, and various rules, as any improvement in these three areas could significantly elevate his strength.

On the contrary, studying Divine Powers like Planting Beans into Soldiers seemed somewhat like neglecting the essentials for the sake of the trivial, given the limited time.

After all, no matter how strong your Divine Powers are, if your basic power isn’t sufficient, they won’t make your final strength that remarkable.

But now, if Chen Fei could make the Divine Power stronger without spending extra time, he naturally wouldn’t be against it.

Chen Fei, looking at the content on the Scripture Scroll Soil, found that what was described as insights into Planting Beans into Soldiers was not really so. It was more a collection of various thoughts concerning this Divine Power.

Since Planting Beans into Soldiers had already reached Great Completion, to make further progress, it would be necessary to change the existing framework. The thoughts on the surface of the Scripture Scroll Soil were about how to change that framework.

As Chen Fei cast Planting Beans into Soldiers, he read the content on the surface of the Scripture Scroll Soil, combining it with his current insight, and more ideas spontaneously emerged in his mind.

On the battlefield, a few warriors shook slightly, suddenly duplicating themselves, and instantly killed the Sun Moon Realm opponents in front of them.

The limit of one hundred and eight warriors seemed to be broken, as there were now one hundred and ten warriors on the battlefield.

But soon, the newly duplicated warriors twisted and then dissipated once more.

The duplication was unstable, and when one warrior duplicated into two, each warrior’s Basic Realm dropped.

Chen Fei looked up at the direction of the battlefield, his gaze wavering, and continued to verify some thoughts while looking at the content of the Scripture Scroll Soil within the Concealment Bell.

“You few, come with me.”

Suddenly, a chilling voice rang out, and Chen Fei turned his head in confusion.

It was a Witch of the Meng Clan in the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm, and Chen Fei glanced at Wu Ze, then at the late-stage Rule Integration Realm individual, finding them remarkably alike in appearance.

“Wasn’t it said that after killing a peer in the Rule Integration Realm, one could return to the camp?” a mid-stage Rule Integration Realm member of the Hill Clan stepped forward and spoke dissatisfiedly.

“Haven’t you returned to the camp, where are you now? There is another task at hand, don’t ask too many questions, this is my last warning!”

Wu Han coldly eyed the Hill Clan Rule Integration Realm member, as if she would draw her sword at any moment.

The Hill Clan Rule Integration Realm member’s face paled slightly, and he took a few steps back, not daring to speak again.

Wu Han once again turned her head to look at the thirty-something Rule Integration Realm warriors she had just pointed out, and seeing that no one else came forward to challenge her, snorted coldly and said,

“Since there are no objections, now you all follow me and set out!”

After dropping these words, Wu Han, along with the other two late-stage Rule Integration Realm of the Wu Meng Clan, flew towards a position at the rear side.

Chen Fei’s brows were deeply furrowed as he glanced at the direction of the battlefield, realizing that he had been selected, and thus, he could no longer endlessly summon warriors.

However, observing the situation, this probing confrontation had already entered its latter half, and the time to cease combat and gather troops was not far off.

The only thing Chen Fei had not anticipated was that upon returning to the Wu Meng Clan’s camp, he would still be deployed.

To say that the Wu Meng Clan had no credibility would not be entirely true, but when it came to the Rule Integration Realm warriors of the Black Stone Domain, the Wu Meng Clan was indeed very casual, only maintaining some semblance of an attitude on the surface.

In total, thirty-five Black Stone Domain Rule Integration Realm warriors followed behind Wu Han. Aside from Chen Fei, who was at the early stage, there were also another eight at this same stage; the rest were all mid-stage Rule Integration Realm warriors.

Spanning ten thousand li, Wu Han and three other late-stage Wu Meng Clan Rule Integration Realm stopped in mid-air.

Chen Fei looked past Wu Han to a basin hundreds of li away where a dozen Rule Integration Realm warriors were flying towards them.

Not only were these Rule Integration Realm warriors fewer in number, but their cultivation realms were also weaker compared to Chen Fei’s side. The only notable figure was a late-stage Rule Integration Realm warrior from the Xuan Clan leading the way.

“Wu Han, you did come as we agreed, but have you brought too many Rule Integration Realm warriors with you?”

Hundreds of li away, the Xuan Clan’s Tu Ying looked at Wu Han, her clear and beautiful voice echoing in all directions.

“Less idle talk, where is my brother!” Wu Han demanded in a low and fierce tone.

“I already said I would bring Wu Jia, and naturally, I keep my promises.”

Tu Ying covered her mouth lightly, the space beside her fluctuated, and a wilting figure appeared to one side.

From hundreds of li away, Wu Han stared at the figure, her eyes almost splitting.

Wu Jia, at the peak of the Rule Integration Realm, controlled two secondary rules and was attempting to comprehend a third. More importantly, Wu Jia hadn’t even reached a thousand years in his cultivation.

Within the entire Wu Meng Clan, he was a renowned genius.

But years ago, the animosity between the Xuan Clan and Wu Meng Clan fully erupted, and Wu Jia was captured due to a mistake.

It was assumed that Wu Jia would not escape death, yet, unexpectedly, the Xuan Clan did not kill him, sparing him his life.

Now, looking at that withered figure, far from the splendor of his peak Rule Integration Realm, the aura he emitted didn’t even reach the Sun Moon Realm.

Clearly, his cultivation realm had been completely ruined. Even if he were rescued now, it was feared he would never be able to return to his former realm, let alone attempt to reach the Open Heaven Realm.

“Xuan Clan, you all deserve death!” Wu Han cried out furiously, about to rush over but was immediately held back by a Wu Meng Clan member beside her.

“Don’t act rashly. Otherwise, in my shock, my hands might not be so gentle.”

Tu Ying held Wu Jia’s head in one hand, lifting him up with ease, looking at Wu Han with a smile, then glanced towards the empty space behind Wu Han.

Because of the secondary rule of Space “Solidify”, Chen Fei noticed the change in Tu Ying’s gaze.

However, even if Chen Fei had not noticed Tu Ying’s shifting gaze, he was aware that behind him, hundreds of li away, several Wu Meng Clan peak Rule Integration Realm warriors were in fact following.

Not only on the side of the Meng Clan, but behind Tu Ying, there were also peak Rule Integration Realm warriors from the Xuan Clan.

Chen Fei speculated that Wu Han’s status must be unusual, possibly related to an Open Heaven Realm powerhouse; otherwise, the Xuan Clan on the other side would not have put on such a show.

The Wu Meng Clan member whose cultivation had been mostly abolished likely would not have survived until now.

“What do you want!” Wu Han took a deep breath, trying to calm herself as she asked.

“Let’s play a game.”

Tu Ying slightly tilted her chin up, looking at Wu Han, and said, “The number of Rule Integration Realm warriors you’ve brought is a bit high, but no matter, I am kind-hearted after all.”

As Tu Ying spoke, she threw out a top-grade Dao artifact, which expanded in the wind and transformed into a gigantic chessboard.

“Let them enter, and we’ll play a game of chess. Win, and I will return your brother to you!” Tu Ying said cheerfully.

“You, go in!”

Wu Han looked at the chessboard, pointed forward with her right hand, commanding without hesitation.

Wu Han selected the Rule Integration Realm warriors from the returning ranks of various clans capable of slaying those at the same rank due to their extraordinary ability.

Pitting the Rule Integration Realm warriors of the Black Stone Domain against each other, the Wu Meng Clan would not feel heartache. Otherwise, if the Wu Meng Clan’s members were to go like this, other voices would emerge within the clan.

Thirty-five Rule Integration Realm warriors involuntarily turned their heads to look at Wu Han. Were their lives really to be gambled in a game to save her brother?

“You can choose not to enter, but afterward, do you think you’ll be able to live comfortably for long?”

Wu Han looked down coldly at the Black Stone Domain’s Rule Integration Realm warriors and said, “Enter now, and if you survive, you won’t have to take part in battles for a year!”
