Chapter 1860 Time Stops (4K)
Deep within the void of the Guixu Realm, under the shroud of the Time Pavilion, Chen Fei's cultivation of the extended characteristic of spacetime collapse was extremely rapid.
The space above the Guixu Realm suddenly rippled, and many strange scenes appeared in the sky, mostly things that happened in the past. Some beings even saw fragments of the scene from the battle for the Realm Lord back then.
Many ninth-order and even tenth-order realm lords looked at this distorted spacetime with astonishment.
As the cultivation level of their own realm lord continues to improve, the level of the Guixu Realm also rises. The cultivation direction of the sixth rank is no longer about mastering a secondary rule.
As for the nine Heavenly Daos of the Guixu Realm, not to mention the ninth rank, even the tenth rank Realm Lord can no longer come into contact with them.
The cultivation methods of the beings in the Guixu Realm are gradually developing in the direction of the Xuanyu Realm. Mastery of the rules can only be achieved at the Earth God Realm.
Even so, these ninth-level cultivators and tenth-level realm lords could still tell from their mere observation that this was the power of time.
It was perfectly normal for their own realm lord to use the rules of time in the Guixu Realm, but the sudden distortion of spacetime throughout the Guixu Realm was a time rule that had never been seen before.
It is very likely that the realm lord of our own realm is cultivating the power of space and time, which is why the entire Guixu Realm has unconsciously undergone some changes.
After Qu Qingsheng and his group visited the Xuan Yu Realm's Illusion Gate, they would occasionally return to the Gui Xu Realm and share some of their observations, which mostly concerned higher-level cultivation paths in the Xuan Yu Realm. These observations would then gradually spread outwards.
Therefore, many tenth-level cultivators already know that in the vast Xuan Yu Realm, the difficulty of mastering the power related to time is no less than that of mastering the secondary rules of time in the Gui Xu Realm back then.
When the strongest beings in the Guixu Realm were only at the tenth rank, their own realm lord was already cultivating at that level.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Fei slowly opened his eyes.
[Void Treasure: Time Ripple - Spacetime Collapse (Breaking Limits)]
The original characteristic of the spacetime collapse was that it absorbed the opponent's attack within the nine-breath time of the time ripple, forming a time disturbance mark. After nine breaths, it would then add the power within the time disturbance mark to itself.
After breaking the limit, the focus of the characteristic remains unchanged, but the disturbance mark of spacetime collapse does not need to wait for nine breaths before it can be used. It can absorb the attack as soon as the time ripple begins, thus allowing the attack to be added to the body.
This change after breaking the limit not only makes the use of Time Collapse more flexible, but also eliminates the worry that the accumulated time disturbance marks within nine breaths might be too strong, causing the body to collapse directly before they can be applied to the body.
Without letting his past self attack him, and to test the power of spacetime collapse, Chen Fei began to circulate the Void Secret Treasury: Void Shadow, and then his soul leaped into the spatial rift.
Meanwhile, within the secret realm, the Night Demon Warrior, after traveling tens of millions of miles, suddenly stopped in mid-air.
A vague feeling arose in the Night Demon Soldier's heart: if they continued forward, other dangers might appear, dangers greater than the previous sense of impending doom.
This intuition came from the user, so the Night Demon Warrior stopped. Perhaps if they continued forward, the tidal wave of energy from the pillar of light would be sensed by a peak Immortal Realm expert.
To this day, only the power of the peak of the Immortal Realm is something Chen Fei cannot resist.
They didn't go to the left or right, because those two directions gave the Night Demon Warriors a bad feeling as well.
The Night Demon Warrior turned and flew back the way it came, the only direction from which it felt the least ominous.
More than 100 million miles away, Yin Henglin, the late-stage Immortal Realm Heavenly Demon who was relentlessly pursuing him, suddenly realized that the position of the Qi tide was rapidly closing in on him.
Amidst the flames, Yin Henglin's eyes flickered slightly. Now that they were too far apart, Yin Henglin naturally had no way of knowing what had happened to the Immortal Realm cultivator who had obtained the fourteenth-grade mid-level spiritual material.
But having already tracked them all the way here, Yin Henglin had no reason to leave halfway.
Thinking of this, Yin Henglin continued to increase his speed, and the distance between them was closing at an extremely fast pace.
Within the origin of emptiness.
Chen Fei looked at the five beams of light ahead, walked to the first beam of light, and reached in.
[Hidden Realm - Area Concealment]
Extend the effect of "Void Shadow" from itself to a certain range. Within this range, companions will also receive a certain degree of Void Shadow effect.
Chen Fei frowned slightly; this was to elevate the solo effect to a group effect.
The main function of the Void Shadow, this Void Treasure, is to shield one from celestial deductions when not in combat. Back when Chen Fei was in the Star Realm, he relied on the Void Shadow to evade Qu Hongshan's pursuit.
Besides shielding against celestial obscurations, Void Shadow can also enhance movement speed during combat, especially for short-range bursts of speed, where the effect is particularly noticeable.
Even the speed at which techniques can be executed can be enhanced by Void Shadow.
Therefore, in team battles, using Void Shadow to buff other Immortal Realm members can enhance the team's strength.
However, Chen Fei has always been a loner, and if he chooses this extended characteristic, it means that he will not be enhanced at all.
When choosing the extended attributes of the Void Treasury, the primary focus should definitely be on strengthening oneself. Especially in a world where great power resides within oneself, the importance of individual strength sometimes outweighs the importance of quantity.
The Heavenly Profound Sect is the number one sect in the entire Profound Feather Realm, with many powerful figures among its members. However, the reason why the Heavenly Profound Sect can stand at the top is because of Venerable Heavenly Profound.
Chen Fei withdrew his hand and went to the second ball of light, reaching inside.
【Phantom Resonance - Accelerated Burst】
In combat, the acceleration effect provided by "Void Shadow" can be stacked and burst multiple times in a very short period of time.
Each stacked burst will instantly elevate the user's agility and attack speed to an even more terrifying level, creating a spatial afterimage effect that is impossible to detect.
After the effect ended, the body was left severely injured.
An extended characteristic that enhances combat power at the cost of injury. This time, it no longer enhances the Heavenly Concealment aspect, but rather provides status buffs.
Injuries are not such a heavy burden for those in the Immortal Realm, since they all have Immortal Crystals on hand.
Battles at the Immortal Realm's limit almost always involve going all out or a fight to the death. Sometimes, many Immortal Realm cultivators regret that their limits aren't extreme enough, preventing them from unleashing even greater combat power.
Although this Phantom Resonance only enhances movement speed and attack speed, these are crucial components of combat power. At the very least, using Phantom Resonance allows one to escape when outmatched.
This Phantom Resonance works on Chen Fei; at least compared to the first extended characteristic, this Phantom Resonance is pretty good.
Chen Fei approached the third ball of light and reached in.
【Reverse Tracing and Counter-Invasion - Heavenly Trap】
When a powerful entity attempts to forcibly deduce or spy on a user under the cover of "Void Shadow", the cover effect will automatically transform into a Void Decoy Trap.
The diviner will discover deliberately fabricated falsehoods, or even celestial traps.
Transforming passive defense into active deterrence is also useful for Chen Fei.
When faced with an opponent whom he cannot match for at the moment, and when the opponent deliberately tries to provoke Chen Fei, Chen Fei can lure the opponent into a dangerous area if the opportunity is right.
Currently in the Xuan Yu Realm, countless extraterrestrial demons want to kill Chen Fei, and even among cultivators or Yuan Demons, there are Immortal Realm cultivators who want to take action against Chen Fei.
Now that the Heavenly Dao is in such a chaotic state within the Fire Spirit Secret Realm, there's no need to worry about being tracked by Heavenly Secrets. However, if Chen Fei were to return to the Xuan Yu Realm and venture out, powerful figures would likely pursue him.
If Chen Fei chooses the extended characteristic of Heavenly Trap, he can use Heavenly Trap to lure anyone who is not a Dominator Realm expert to a specific area.
Chen Fei turned his head and glanced at the extended characteristics of Phantom Resonance. Compared with Heavenly Trap, the two each had their own merits, but in terms of life-saving effect and Chen Fei's current reputation in the Xuan Yu Realm, Heavenly Trap was definitely superior.
Having already formed a certain inclination, Chen Fei approached the fourth ball of light and reached in.
【Time Slot Walk - Momentary Freeze】
During the high-speed movement or attack of "Void Shadow", the user can "freeze" the extremely small spacetime fragment in which they are located for a very short time, almost an absolute instantaneous pause.
This allows them to avoid imminent fatal attacks or observe the ever-changing battlefield situation.
By integrating the projection of the laws of time, an "absolute evasion point" is created at high speed. Each use will cause damage to the source due to the impact of the time projection power.
Chen Fei's eyes lit up slightly as he looked at the new Void Treasure's extended properties.
Indeed, all the good Void Treasures' extended characteristics need to be combined with the supreme power of the Time Rule in order to undergo a true transformation.
This time-slot walk isn't really a time stop where you have to avoid danger.
Instead, it uses the projection power of time rules to greatly enhance the user's reaction speed, thus achieving a brief effect similar to this instantaneous pause.
Regardless of whether it's time-stopping or not, this extended feature of time-slot walk does indeed allow Chen Fei to avoid danger at any time during battle.
If combined with the Void Treasure Moment Prediction, even if the opponent has extended characteristics such as guaranteed hit, Chen Fei can directly avoid the opponent's attack.
Moreover, looking at this Time Walk, if he were to cultivate it to the point of breaking through limits, Chen Fei should be able to accumulate power during that almost time-stopping gap.
In other words, this time-slot walk can be used not only for evasion but also for offense.
Chen Fei's heart shifted from the Heavenly Trap to the Time Gap Walk.
Reaching the last ball of light, Chen Fei reached in.
[Cause and Effect Stepping Stone - Leveraging Illusory Forces]
When moving at high speed or attacking, it will briefly leave behind a void afterimage (stepping stone) with a faint "presence" and "causal connection".
Users can instantly swap positions with any of the springboards they have left behind.
It's also an extension of movement techniques, which is actually quite good, but it's still somewhat inferior to Time Walk. Although Time Walk causes fundamental damage with each use.
However, aside from Chen Fei having his own panel backup, the Immortal Crystal can also repair the origin, so the aftereffects of Time Walk are not a problem in Chen Fei's eyes.
Chen Fei withdrew his hand, looking at the Time Walk and the Heavenly Trap with hesitation in his eyes.
Time travel is a powerful combat tool that can further enhance Chen Fei's combat abilities.
As for the Heavenly Secret Trap, it can indeed better shield the Heavenly Secrets deductions of powerful individuals.
Of course, no matter which extended characteristic Chen Fei chooses this time, as long as the extended characteristic of Void Shadow is fully refined, the original power of Void Shadow will also be enhanced, so it can still shield the Heavenly Secrets Deduction of the Immortal Realm.
However, if the opponent possesses specific extended characteristics of celestial deduction, a simple upgrade of Void Shadow might not be enough to stop the opponent's celestial lock.
Chen Fei focused his gaze on the Heavenly Trap, then on the Time Walk, before grabbing the light orb of the Time Walk and turning to fly back the way he came.
At worst, we can stay in the Illusion Gate after leaving the Fire Spirit Secret Realm. Besides, it's still unknown what level of cultivation we can achieve in the Fire Spirit Secret Realm this time.
If he could break through to the late stage of the Immortal Realm, even if he faced the peak of the Immortal Realm, without the Heavenly Trap, Chen Fei would be confident that he could escape unscathed.
Moreover, during this time-lapse stroll, Chen Fei felt that he might be able to further enhance its power.
Deep within the void of the Guixu Realm, Chen Fei suddenly opened his eyes.
[Void Treasure Trove: Void Shadows - Time Rift Walk (Unrefined)]
"simplify!"
"Timewalking is being simplified... Simplification successful... Timewalking → Void Shadow!"
Chen Fei glanced at the remaining Immortal Crystals. There were still ninety-five Immortal Crystals left, which was not enough to simplify the extended characteristics of another Void Treasure.
Chen Fei turned his head and glanced at the scene outside the Guixu Realm. At this moment, the Night Demon Warriors were moving around everywhere, changing their position from time to time.
Under such circumstances of carefully avoiding the senses of a powerful being, the probability of continuing to collide with the Immortal Mystic Crystal is extremely low.
Chen Fei withdrew his gaze. The surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the Time Pavilion enveloped him. Chen Fei closed his eyes and began to circulate the Void Secret Treasury Void Shadow.
In an instant, a massive amount of insights appeared in his mind, which Chen Fei absorbed one by one.
Within the Fire Spirit Secret Realm, Yin Henglin pursued Qi Ji Chao Xi in a straight line, and the distance between the two was getting closer and closer.
160 million miles...
One hundred and ten million miles...
Fifty million miles...
After traveling tens of millions of miles back, the Night Demon Warriors changed directions multiple times along the way, often having to adjust their course after flying twenty or thirty million miles.
The Qi Tide covers an area of 300 million miles, which is too vast. Now that a large number of Immortal Realm experts have gathered in this Fire Spirit Secret Realm, it is inevitable that we will encounter powerful experts above the late stage of the Immortal Realm.
If it weren't for the immense luck that brought that inexplicable sense of danger, the Night Demon Warrior, running at that pace, might have immediately crashed into the perception of a late-stage Immortal Realm expert, or even a peak Immortal Realm expert.
After changing direction again and flying no more than a million miles, the Night Demon Warrior had to retreat six million miles before finally coming to a stop in place.
At this moment, the Night Demon Warrior's intuition tells him that stopping here is probably the best outcome.
This best-case scenario doesn't mean you won't encounter other immortal realms, but rather that if you continue to wander aimlessly, you might encounter an even worse situation.
