From when he had decided to start hunting in this area, Chen Fei had slain a total of nine mid-stage Rule Integration Realm cultivators and three late-stage Rule Integration Realm cultivators.

Amongst the loot of low-grade Primordial Crystals and various spirit materials, which were plentiful and varied, Chen Fei merely glanced over them and, finding none that he could use immediately, set them aside for the time being.

These low-grade Primordial Crystals and spirit materials, along with the twelve mystical treasures—among which three were top-grade—held tremendous value.

Especially the mystical treasures of Ran Bin and Ran Lou, the Bone Soul Saber and Bone Soul Blade, could be combined for use.

Although they were not as powerful as ultimate-grade Dao Artifacts, they were much stronger than ordinary top-grade Dao Artifacts.

If all these items were sold, they would amount to an enormous fortune.

Chen Fei, who spent ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals a day, faced huge expenses, but this wealth was enough to sustain his cultivation for a considerably long period without worrying about a shortage of Primordial Crystals.

At that moment, Chen Fei didn’t contemplate the matter of the money, his entire focus was on the epiphany emerging within his sea of consciousness.

Twelve portions of spiritual essence—he had already used one for cultivation before.

Now with eleven portions left in his hands, Chen Fei crushed them one by one, continuously experiencing insights emerging within his sea of consciousness, an experience too immersive to resist.

Setting aside the cost-effectiveness issue, cultivating with spiritual essence was indeed the fastest-known method for Chen Fei, surpassing even Rule Crystals.

Shattering a Rule Crystal required a gentle and continuous flow, the effect of which could last about twenty days.

Shattering spiritual essence, however, was a fleeting splendor.

Though brief, it indeed burst forth with sufficient light and heat during that fleeting moment.

The eleven portions of spiritual essence, consumed in just a short time by Chen Fei, also yielded extremely significant results.

The fragments of rules within Chen Fei’s soul increased from the original sixty-five to sixty-nine, leaving only three pieces away from the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm.

The Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique, into which he had integrated several martial arts techniques earlier, did not substantially increase in essence, but with this round of cultivation, the skill level increased from twenty percent at the stage of perfection to fifty percent.

The main cultivation technique was getting increasingly closer to Great Completion.

Once Chen Fei cultivated the Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique to Great Completion, he would thoroughly clear the barrier between the Rule Integration Realm and the Open Heaven Realm.

Of course, even without bringing the Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique to Great Completion, as long as the conditions were right, Chen Fei could break through to the Open Heaven Realm.

The simplest method of breakthrough was to completely control the four secondary rules of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.

Other cultivators at the Rule Integration Realm, after preparing all four secondary rules, needed to find the right moment and, with the aid of various precious treasures, merge the four secondary rules to break through to the Open Heaven Realm.

Chen Fei, possessing a control panel, could directly merge the secondary rules, and at the moment of full control over the four secondary rules of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind, he could instantly advance to the Open Heaven Realm.

Advancing the Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique to Great Completion was of greater significance for Chen Fei, as it would allow him to better control all his powers, maximizing their effectiveness.

This time, by slaying the two scavengers, Ran Bin and Ran Lou, Chen Fei had acquired the cultivation method for the fourth kind of Space Secondary Rule.

During this cultivation, Chen Fei also condensed a fragment of the Space Secondary Rule “Void.”

Although the number of rule fragments varied greatly, having all four Space Secondary Rules made Chen Fei’s control over the power of space more adept and intuitive.

Bringing together the four kinds of Space Secondary Rules, a clear sense of lacking was vividly perceived by Chen Fei.

Having plundered the spatial characteristic of the Soul-devouring Worm, Chen Fei’s sensitivity towards space rules was now much clearer than before.

At this moment, Chen Fei, looking at the space rules in the void, could more clearly perceive which other Space Secondary Rule he was missing.

Even without a cultivation technique, given Chen Fei’s current insight, spending about ten years, he could forcefully comprehend some aspects of this final Space Secondary Rule.

And create a quite feasible fifth kind of Space Secondary Rule cultivation technique.

Since he had already forcefully comprehended some aspects, by then Chen Fei could use the control panel to simplify the fifth kind of Space Secondary Rule.

Even if the cultivation technique was somewhat ordinary, it would not affect Chen Fei’s final control over the fifth kind of Space Secondary Rule.

By then, Chen Fei could gather all five kinds of Space Secondary Rules and merge them to control the true Space Main Rule.

“Ten years…”

Chen Fei’s eyes flickered; this period was definitely not long. Breaking through to the Open Heaven Realm with the Space Main Rule was seemingly effortless and his battle strength would be significantly stronger than breaking through with Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.

But given the current chaotic state of the Black Stone Domain, ten years seemed overly lengthy.

The Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique had greatly progressed, and Celestial Suppression wasn’t lagging either. In this round of cultivation alone, the fragments of the rule of strength within his physique increased from thirty-nine to forty-one.

The increase in the number of rule fragments wasn’t as significant as those within the soul, but the real increase in strength was more substantial through the enhancement of the physique.

There was no helping it; after all, the rule being cultivated within the physique was the Main Rule of Strength, not comparable to other secondary rules.

Spiritual essence completely depleted, Chen Fei took out Ran Bin’s Bone Soul Saber and Bone Soul Blade, briefly examined them, but did not recognize which race the ruins belonged to.

There was also the secret technique that Ran Bin had obtained, which relied on the soul for cultivation.

From its characteristics, this secret technique was somewhat similar to the Bronze Rune, but its level was much lower.

It felt like the secret technique that Ran Bin had obtained from the ancient tomb was somewhat imitating the Bronze Rune.

But the Bronze Rune was composed of various fragments of rules that Chen Fei could not comprehend, assembled in an extremely complex manner to form a special ability to plunder innate gifts.

The secret technique from the tomb brutally utilizes the fragments in the soul, a method certainly better than Chen Fei directly shattering the spiritual essence.

But when Chen Fei shattered the spiritual essence, he sought the epiphanies that dispersed; if Chen Fei used the tomb’s secret technique, on the other hand, the obtained epiphanies were not as numerous.

Chen Fei had a panel, and the abundance of epiphanies was critical for his cultivation.

Chen Fei tucked the Bone Soul Saber and Bone Soul Blade into his sleeve, his gaze shifted forward, he ignited Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, took a step forward, the surrounding space dramatically changed, and Chen Fei had already traversed over a thousand miles.

Compared to before, this time Chen Fei’s crossing of a thousand miles was not only more relaxed but the pressure he faced had also greatly diminished.

This was due to the growth of his spatial talents and the resistance against pressure provided by four types of Space Secondary Rules, leading to positive growth.

Chen Fei continued to move forward three steps, covering nearly four thousand miles, sensing that up ahead, two early-stage Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm individuals were being killed by a mid-stage Evil Clan’s Rule Integration Realm.

Every move of the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm Evil Clan was extremely difficult for the two early-stage Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm to withstand, as if the next moment they would be pierced through their defense and annihilated.

The disparity between each stage in the Rule Integration Realm was extremely obvious.

Sometimes, sheer numbers can make up for the disparity in stages, but the strength of two early-stage Rule Integration Realm was far from sufficient to withstand a mid-stage Rule Integration Realm.

These two individuals from the Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm, Chen Fei naturally recognized them as Xin Zhaoxian and Yue Chaobin.

After all, the entirety of the Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm amounted to no more than a few hundred, and inside Jiguang City, there were fewer than two hundred. Even though they had not met regularly, they had still encountered each other a few times.

Chen Fei activated Celestial Suppression and Indestructible Vision, slightly altering his aura.

The next moment, Chen Fei took a step forward, and the surrounding scenery suddenly blurred.

Chen Fei spread out his senses, extending his left hand.

The Evil Clan’s You Wen was methodically destroying the defense of the two Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm before him step by step.

Seeing the despair in the eyes of the two Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm, wanting to resist but unable to, was just what You Wen enjoyed most, this expression on the prey.

At this moment, You Wen was waiting for the two Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm to execute forbidden techniques. In the instant the Humans launched the forbidden techniques, their strength would surge, but it would inevitably be slightly out of control.

That was the moment he would make his killing move.

Forbidden techniques were good, a hope for a turnaround in desperate situations, but everything has two sides, using forbidden techniques could also lead to a quicker death.

Suddenly, You Wen inexplicably sensed a chill rising from his soul, and before he could react, his entire body suddenly stiffened, and infinite Tremendous Strength pressed down on him from all around.

The force was so great that it left You Wen without the slightest resistance.

Xin Zhaoxian and Yue Chaobin saw You Wen’s stiff form, their eyes showing a hint of confusion. At this moment, with such major flaws exposed on You Wen, it should have been a great opportunity for Xin Zhaoxian and Yue Chaobin to attack.

However, Xin Zhaoxian and Yue Chaobin hesitated, given that they were both early-stage Rule Integration Realm, You Wen should not have shown such flaws.

Instead, it seemed more like You Wen was playing with them, and it might eventually turn into a trap.

“Buzz!”

A violent spatial fluctuation descended, and You Wen disappeared from sight.

Xin Zhaoxian and Yue Chaobin only saw a streak of black lightning flash by, the terrifying aura causing their mental defenses to tremble intensely, but the next moment, the space before them was empty.

The black lightning was gone, the Evil Clan’s You Wen also vanished without a trace, everything was like an illusion.

Xin Zhaoxian and Yue Chaobin’s eyes widened slightly, completely clueless about what had just happened.

The only certainty was that someone from the Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm had appeared, saved their lives, and also forcibly took away the Evil Clan’s You Wen.

But exactly which Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm it was, they had not sensed at all, nor could they detect any Rule Integration Realm’s aura within a thousand miles at the moment.

“Let’s go, it’s probably an elder who still has matters to attend to, so he didn’t stop to speak to us,” Yue Chaobin was the first to recover, shouting in a low voice as he flew forward.

“Alright!”

The sudden return from the brink left them somewhat dazed, but there were only a few above the late stages of the Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm, they would eventually find the senior who saved them.
