Chapter 796 - 797: Leaving Gui Xu Heaven

Chapter 796: Chapter 797: Leaving Gui Xu Heaven

In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.

Chu Fengmian had been in the Ruins of Heaven for a full month, with only a few more hours to go before the entrance of the Ruins of Heaven was set to close again.

Now that Chu Fengmian was in the Ruins of Heaven, he had gradually clarified some matters regarding it.

The Ruins of Heaven was much larger than Chu Fengmian had ever imagined, boundless, and it only opened once every three years, for a duration of one month.

If one did not leave within this month, they would have to wait another three years.

"It seems that there’s no trace of Supreme Sword Energy nearby anymore."

Atop a mountain peak in the continent of the Ruins, in front of Chu Fengmian, was an immensely large Sword Array made up of sixty strands of Supreme Sword Energy, all rushing towards Chu Fengmian.

Over the past few days, Chu Fengmian had been continually searching for Supreme Sword Energy and reclaiming it.

Now, in Chu Fengmian’s possession, there were already over three hundred strands of Supreme Sword Energy.

When these three hundred strands of Supreme Sword Energy were all displayed at once, the sword edges they contained were sharp enough to slaughter every living being around.

These strands had also allowed Chu Fengmian’s Nine Domains Sword Technique to advance further.

As soon as Chu Fengmian’s strength broke through again, it would be immediately reflected in his power.

Chu Fengmian had gradually penetrated the mysteries of Supreme Sword Energy, and his understanding of the Sword Dao was now unsurpassed. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to claim he was the best in the world.

Even former Sword Dao Masters were admit their inferiority, as the mysteries within the Supreme Sword Energy and the swordsmanship involved were so profound that a normal Sword Cultivator might spend their entire lives unable to fully comprehend it.

Yet for Chu Fengmian, it was effortless. He comprehended all the swordsmanship within it and integrated it into his Nine Domains Sword Technique, making it his own power.

Chu Fengmian’s realm had already reached the pinnacle of the seventh level of the Life and Death Realm, and he might break through to the eighth level at any moment.

His Nine Domains Sword Technique, which was continuously being perfected, was now comparable to any celestial-level swordsmanship, and was enough to make countless Sword Cultivators vie for it.

In the world of Sword Dao, Chu Fengmian was undoubtedly a titan.

"A bunch of Supreme Sword Energy trying to resist me? Suppress them all!"

Chu Fengmian looked at the Sword Array composed of those strands of Supreme Sword Energy, a cold smile appearing at the corners of his mouth, and suddenly, he charged forward, wielding the Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword.

Beside Chu Fengmian, the three hundred-plus strands of Supreme Sword Energy also had their power fully boosted, immediately making the sharpness of the Sword Edge terribly one hundred times more fearsome.

With a single thrust,

The Sword Array was utterly shattered, and with a sweep of Chu Fengmian’s hand, he directly absorbed the over sixty strands of Supreme Sword Energy into his body, refining them all at once.

The Sword Intent within Chu Fengmian was now even stronger.

"Four hundred now!"

After reclaiming those sixty-plus strands of Supreme Sword Energy, the number of Supreme Sword Energy strands Chu Fengmian possessed had reached a full four hundred.

This was four to five times more than when Chu Fengmian had slain Saint Lord Huang.

"Good! With four hundred strands of Supreme Sword Energy, even if I face a Martial Artist in the top three levels before the Life and Death Platform, I will have the strength to fight and will be invincible!"

Feeling the power within his body, Chu Fengmian couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.

The Life and Death Platform is divided into nine levels.

The first three levels of the Life and Death Platform are the Fractured Life Realm, the Longevity Realm, and the Immortality Realm respectively. These three realms constitute the first echelon of the Life and Death Platform.

Before arriving in the Ruins of Heaven, even if a Martial Artist at the Fractured Life Realm acted, Chu Fengmian could only flee, having no other means to resist.

Though capable of contending to some extent, he was destined to lose without any suspense.

Previously, Chu Fengmian effortlessly slaughtered Saint Lord Huang, a Martial Artist of the Fractured Life Realm. For the current Chu Fengmian,

even if he encountered a Martial Artist of the Longevity Realm or even the Immortality Realm on the second and third levels of the Life and Death Platform, Chu Fengmian had the strength to fight and possibly even to win.

At the current eight levels of the Life and Death Realm, he could achieve all of this, which was something nobody would believe if spoken aloud.

However, the adventures Chu Fengmian experienced were numerous—inheritance from the Cloud Feather Heavenly Palace, Supreme Sword Energy, Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword, Creation Power, and even that Battle Dragon Technique.

Each was an earth-shattering opportunity once it arose, and all of these were now possessed by Chu Fengmian, enabling him to wield such formidable power.

However, Chu Fengmian could truly defeat only the first three levels.

The nine levels of the Life and Death Platform are divided into Fractured Life, Longevity, Immortality, Flawless, Divine Martial, Heart Refinement, Destiny, Utmost Heaven, and Immortal.

The changes in the first three levels of the Life and Death Platform—Fractured Life, Longevity, and Immortality—mainly affect life force rather than fundamentally altering strength.

But upon reaching the fourth level, the Flawless Realm, everything changes significantly.

The fourth level of the Life and Death Platform, the Flawless Realm, signifies the Martial Artist’s body without flaws, reaching this realm means removing all impurities from the Martial Artist’s body, achieving a state of perfection.

Once transformation is successful, strength will enormously multiply.

Against a Martial Artist of the Flawless Realm, Chu Fengmian isn’t sure if his current strength would suffice to withstand such a challenge.

Yet, Chu Fengmian isn’t worried; he now possesses a new trump card, the Cloud Feather Heavenly Palace. Should he face a superior opponent he cannot defeat, Chu Fengmian could retreat into the Cloud Feather Heavenly Palace, ensuring an invincible position.

Here in the Ruins of Heaven, Chu Fengmian’s greatest gain isn’t the Supreme Sword Energy but the Cloud Feather Heavenly Palace; this alone is worth as much as Chu Fengmian’s life.

"It’s time to leave!"

Chu Fengmian could feel that the laws of the Ruins of Heaven were beginning to change, signaling its imminent closure.

Although Chu Fengmian could use the Array in the Cloud Feather Heavenly Palace to leave, doing so might lead others to suspect that Chu Fengmian had a method to enter and exit the Cloud Feather Heavenly Palace.

Chu Fengmian didn’t want to reveal this just yet.

"Let’s go!"

Chu Fengmian’s body moved, his light merging with his sword, heading directly towards the exit of the Ruins of Heaven.

In this return, he also wanted to see how those from the Ye family would contend with him now.

Chu Fengmian’s light continued to travel, and suddenly, a crack appeared in front of him.

Beyond this crack was the Nine Domains.

"Swoosh!"

Without hesitation, Chu Fengmian’s light charged through.
