Chapter 873: One Man Forming an Army

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhan Xuming and the others had noticed Chen Feixian stepping onto the field, frowning slightly but ultimately not intervening.

In a Mortal Combat match, what mattered most was the fundamental strength. Without sufficient strength, no amount of strategic planning would be effective.

Especially when the opponent’s strength was unknown, the so-called order of battles became a joke.

The Sun Moon Realm and the Monster Emperors couldn’t help but glance towards the Black Divine’s side.

In that Mortal Combat match, the side that first won two rounds would be declared the victor.

With the Black Divine having won the first round, if they won the current match in the mid-stage of the fourth rank, the subsequent two rounds would be directly concluded.

As for the extra rule allowing lower-realm challengers to face those in higher realms, if the Black Divine won the first two rounds, there wouldn’t be any challengers left.

Thus, the Black Divine’s advantage had become very significant at that moment.

Or rather, the Black Divine’s method of fighting, having been a prodigy reborn from the Boundless Sea for thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, had caught both the Sacred City and the Shadow Island off guard.

Remarkable!

It was likely that even the Shadow Island hadn’t anticipated that the Black Divine’s tactics would reach such a level.

Perhaps at its peak, the Black Divine had been far stronger than the Emperor behind the Shadow Island; otherwise, it wouldn’t have had such abilities.

However, discussing the past was now meaningless. The most crucial thing was to prevent the Black Divine from winning the second round.

On the Shadow Island’s side, She Zijing and the others also kept their eyes fixed on the Black Divine.

The best method was to unite with the Boundless Sea side to ambush the Black Divine and prevent it from winning this round.

But the rules of the Mortal Combat match required each participant to fight to the death, with no possibility of alliances, as the matches were fought in sequence.

It was unthinkable to deliberately die to help the other side, after all.

In the end, the result could only depend on their own strength, to strive to defeat each opponent standing in front of them, whether it was the Black Divine or the others.

On the Boundless Sea side, with Chen Fei’s entry onto the field, the hearts of all the participants and demons were in their throats.

From now on, every battle was crucial and would ultimately determine the fate of the Boundless Sea.

Chen Fei stood on the field, sensing the blood in the jade box outside the arena.

There was a slight interference, but it did not affect the final blood resurrection.

If things became critical, Chen Fei could rely on this to abandon his current body.

On the Shadow Island side, a figure flashed and landed in the arena, standing several miles away from Chen Fei, gazing at him from across the void.

“Shadow Island, Su Lianyuan!”

Su Lianyuan held a splitting spear and looked at Chen Fei with a cold expression.

A killing aura spread in all directions, as if an army of thousands was arrayed before Chen Fei, ready to charge at him the next moment.

“Boundless Sea, Chen Fei!”

Chen Fei drew his Concealment Sword, and a melodious sword cry echoed, dispelling Su Lianyuan’s killing intent entirely.

Chen Fei still wielded the Concealment Sword. The Sacred Land had inquired whether he wanted to exchange it for a more powerful mid-grade spiritual treasure.

After some consideration, Chen Fei declined the suggestion.

However, Chen Fei did utilize the Sacred Land’s resources to elevate the Concealment Sword to the peak of a mid-grade spiritual treasure. If Chen Fei wished, the sword could be upgraded to a top-grade spiritual treasure immediately.

In keeping with its previous characteristics, Chen Fei had only enhanced the sword’s solidity and weight, while forsaking its sharpness and armor-piercing abilities.

For Chen Fei, the benefits provided by a mid-grade spiritual treasure were minimal; what mattered more was having a weapon that was sufficiently solid and sturdy.

Su Lianyuan, feeling his own aura lightly suppressed, had a deeper chill in his gaze.

This was a formidable opponent, or rather, in a Mortal Combat match, there were no easy adversaries.

As She Zijing had previously warned She Qianling, even though the highest realm of cultivation in the Boundless Sea could only reach the mid-stage of the fifth rank, it did not mean that cultivators of the fourth rank were weak and easily dealt with.

“Kill!”

Unable to gain the upper hand in terms of aura, Su Lianyuan no longer hesitated. With a roar, he wielded the splitting spear and charged towards Chen Fei.

Heaven and Earth’s energy swirled, and behind Su Lianyuan, banners flew, yellow sand stirred, and countless soldiers with blades appeared, following Su Lianyuan in a charge towards Chen Fei.

If earlier Su Lianyuan’s aura resembled an army of thousands, now, with his techniques, the energy of Heaven and Earth had truly manifested into countless soldiers, launching a full-scale assault.

Chen Fei watched Su Lianyuan and then glanced at the soldiers behind him.

Each soldier had a minimum strength of the second realm, or the Aperture Tempering realm.

Among them, some were at the third realm, and there were even soldiers at the peak of the third realm.

These soldiers were not scattered like loose sand but were organized into military formations, drawing more Heaven and Earth’s energy to enhance their power.

In the blink of an eye, it was as if a grand force of Heaven and Earth was pressing down on Chen Fei.

Su Lianyuan did not immediately reach Chen Fei; instead, he advanced step by step, with each step causing ripples and summoning more soldiers behind him.

The longer the delay, the greater Su Lianyuan’s advantage would become, until the strength of the soldiers behind him exceeded the limit his soul could bear.

However, due to the formation of the soldiers, the actual pressure Su Lianyuan had to endure was much less than it appeared.

On the Boundless Sea side, everyone watching was on edge, whether present at the scene or in the central hall.

Chen Fei had demonstrated extraordinary strength during the selection trials, but now, Su Lianyuan’s overwhelming aura, as if intending to engulf the very heavens and earth, was also strikingly formidable.

Zhu Xiaowen couldn’t help but clench his fists. If Chen Fei hadn’t stepped onto the field first, he would be the one facing Su Lianyuan at this moment.

Zhu Xiaowen questioned himself—facing such an onslaught, the only option would be to forcefully break through.

He would use the Nine Heavens Dust Technique to set up layers of defense, gradually clearing out the soldiers.

Avoiding the attack was not an option, as it would only strengthen Su Lianyuan’s momentum and lead to more soldiers appearing. Instead, counterattacking the formation was the way to recover some of the disadvantage!

Zhu Xiaowen looked at Su Lianyuan and then at Chen Fei, wondering what Chen Fei would do.

Chen Fei looked at the army charging towards him, his expression unchanged.

The Concealment Sword was raised, and the Heaven and Earth’s energy that Su Lianyuan had drawn away was swiftly drawn back towards Chen Fei as he moved.

In terms of control over Heaven and Earth’s energy, the perfected Nine Heavens Stellar Technique would not be inferior to any fourth-realm technique, and it even surpassed them by far.

Nine stars shone on Chen Fei’s body, and three Divine Palaces appeared. The formations among the first six palaces instantly connected the three Divine Palaces together.

The pinnacle power of the Mountain Sea Realm!

“Buzz!”

A ripple spread from Chen Fei, and the immense, desolate energy flowed freely within him.

Chen Fei slightly lifted his eyelids, gazing at Su Lianyuan. In the next moment, he used the Extreme Heaven Technique, stepping into spatial rifts, and appeared before Su Lianyuan in an instant.

“Formation!”

Su Lianyuan sensed Chen Fei’s arrival and, with a low growl, the soldiers behind him instantly moved to surround him. At the same time, they enclosed Chen Fei within the military formation.

A military formation was the best way to overcome a larger force with a smaller one, or to win against a stronger opponent.

By unifying everyone into a single force, even incoming attacks could be distributed and absorbed.

Su Lianyuan’s personal army not only had immense power but also provided excellent protection for himself.

Su Lianyuan could appear anywhere within the formation, without needing to face his opponent directly, while his attacks could still reach the enemy through the soldiers.

Chen Fei’s counterattack seemed to have directly fallen into a trap.

“Boom!”

The shockwaves of force spread in layers, and Chen Fei, at the center, was violently tossed and distorted by the turbulent Heaven and Earth’s energy.

On the Boundless Sea side, many people instinctively leaned forward, as if this would help them see more clearly.

As the fluctuation of Heaven and Earth’s energy slightly subsided, everyone finally discerned the situation.

The Concealment Sword was held in front of Chen Fei, with a purple-golden aura enveloping him. The combined attacks from the surrounding soldiers struck the aura but did not make any impact.

Su Lianyuan’s splitting spear, embedded in the Concealment Sword, could not shift the sword even slightly.

Su Lianyuan’s pupils flickered. Although this attack was not at its peak due to the number of soldiers not being maximal and was not his strongest attack, he had never seen anyone receive such a strike so effortlessly at his level.

He had not encountered such an opponent on Shadow Island, and it should not have happened on the Boundless Sea either!

Chen Fei slightly raised his head and looked at Su Lianyuan. The fundamental defense formed by the Great Completion Suppressing Dragon Elephant and the Nine Heavens Stellar Technique was astonishingly formidable.

Under the Nine Stars Row state, Su Lianyuan’s attack did not even trigger the innate Prison Suppression or the Adamantine Body, as Chen Fei’s fundamental defense completely absorbed the strike.

Retreat!

Feeling Chen Fei’s gaze, Su Lianyuan’s heart chilled. Without any hesitation, he blended into the throng of soldiers.

One man becoming an army, invincible in attack and equally unmatched in defense!

This was Su Lianyuan’s confidence.

A faint light flickered at Chen Fei’s forehead—Instant Thousand Year!

At that moment, in Chen Fei’s view, Su Lianyuan’s form was frozen mid-air. Not only Su Lianyuan but also the surrounding Heaven and Earth’s energy was similarly suspended.

Chen Fei’s eyes shifted slightly, and everything around him came into clear view.

Whether it was the flow of the military formation among the soldiers, the permeation of energy from the soldiers, or Su Lianyuan’s intended movement, it all appeared distinctly before Chen Fei.

Knowing oneself and one’s enemy leads to a hundred battles without peril!

“Bang!”

Chen Fei stepped forward, and the world began to spin again.

The spot where Chen Fei’s foot landed made a muffled sound. Before the ripples could spread, Chen Fei’s Concealment Sword had already thrust forward.

“Shh!”

A ring of spatial folds appeared around the sword’s edge, and the next moment, the void shattered, extending straight towards Su Lianyuan.

Su Lianyuan, who had long been concealed among the soldiers, felt the power of the sword and widened his eyes slightly.
