This was also the reason why Qiu Yu had suddenly attempted to capture Chen Fei earlier.

Qiu Yu had wanted to avoid this situation, but unexpectedly, he had failed.

Since leaving the Central Mountain Range to apprehend Chen Fei, everything had gone wrong.

Looking at the Suspended Peak Mountain below, Qiu Yu thought that if Chen Fei remained trapped there, he wouldn’t need to go in personally. After all, soon enough, one of them would refine this Suspended Peak Mountain using the Rule Integration Realm.

However, given the near-Rule Integration Realm attack intensity Chen Fei had demonstrated, if he fully unleashed his power, the Suspended Peak Mountain would not be able to contain this human genius.

Qiu Yu could, of course, stay outside the Suspended Peak Mountain, but this would pose a problem: his aura fluctuations might be detected by the Emperor-level experts outside.

Emperors control an entire rule.

As a Rule Integration Realm expert, Qiu Yu naturally understood the terror of Emperors; they were far stronger than ordinary Rule Integration Realm practitioners.

Thus, one should never underestimate an Emperor’s methods. Being overly cautious in the face of an Emperor-level expert is always wise.

Hence, staying outside the Suspended Peak Mountain might lead to unexpected situations.

“Since you want to play, I’ll play along!”

Qiu Yu suddenly chuckled softly, his figure flickering and disappearing into the sky as he rushed straight into the Suspended Peak Mountain.

Being forced into a dilemma by a mid-level Sun Moon Realm expert was quite amusing. Engaging within the Suspended Peak Mountain might damage it, but as long as it wasn’t too excessive, it would be within tolerable limits.

And Qiu Yu was confident that if he encountered Chen Fei directly again, the previous situation wouldn’t repeat itself.

Inside the Suspended Peak Mountain, Chen Fei discovered that at some point, he had turned into a statue.

Surrounding Chen Fei were other statues, and below these statues, dozens of figures were kneeling.

Chen Fei’s expression shifted slightly; the rules of the Suspended Peak Mountain seemed to have changed.

According to the information Chen Fei had previously received, the Mountain God Temple of the Suspended Peak Mountain would have statues that emerged to forcibly kill, and then automatically restore, which matched the abnormal situation.

However, now that he had actually entered the Suspended Peak Mountain, he found himself transformed into a completely immobile statue.

“Mountain God, the outside has suffered from years of drought. Please grant us some rain!”

A member of the Glass Clan below suddenly looked up at Chen Fei’s position, his expression full of earnestness and pleading.

As this Glass Clan member spoke, Chen Fei felt his vital essence and spirit soul starting to drain away, while the sky outside the temple quickly turned overcast.

The next moment, a torrential downpour instantly filled the heavens and earth.

Unable to move, Chen Fei watched as his internal energy continued to drain away. Each raindrop outside was manifested from Chen Fei’s own power.

The outer layer of the clay statue continuously restrained Chen Fei’s movements, and even the elemental energy of heaven and earth was blocked, preventing Chen Fei from absorbing any energy to replenish himself.

“It’s raining, it’s raining, but the rain isn’t heavy enough. Mountain God, please make it rain harder!”

Seeing the heavy rain outside, the dozens of Glass Clan members below all showed expressions of joy and excitement. Yet, some members still found the rain insufficient and continued to pray.

As this Glass Clan member spoke, Chen Fei’s vital essence and spirit soul drained even faster. At this rate, it wouldn’t take long before Chen Fei would fall to the Sun Moon Realm and eventually be completely drained.

Chen Fei’s expression remained unchanged. He hadn’t expected the Suspended Peak Mountain to use such a method to kill.

While Spirit Concealing Lake used subtlety, the Suspended Peak Mountain was like a blunt knife slicing flesh.

Not only was it painful, but it also forced one to watch their own death with no way to resist.

Chen Fei circulated the Indestructible Vision, drawing elemental energy from the void to replenish his body.

If the Suspended Peak Mountain was intent on killing him this way, Chen Fei could remain inside and never leave.

As for the outer clay statue, it actually couldn’t completely imprison Chen Fei. If he wished, he could break free from it.

However, Chen Fei didn’t do that. He was waiting, waiting for the Glass Clan’s Rule Integration Realm expert to make a choice.

Whether to enter the Suspended Peak Mountain or stay outside.

Chen Fei had been wondering why the Glass Clan’s Rule Integration Realm expert wanted to capture him, but without crucial information, he couldn’t figure it out.

From the earlier scene, where the Glass Clan expert had killed several Sun Moon Realm enemies across hundreds of miles, it seemed this Glass Clan expert did not want his appearance to be known by other alien races.

Rule Integration Realm experts naturally wouldn’t fear being known by Sun Moon Realm experts. What they truly feared was being discovered by the Emperors from other planes.

The more an enemy tries to hide something, the more Chen Fei would act oppositely.

Now it was a matter of seeing how the Glass Clan expert would respond, and Chen Fei would decide his next move accordingly.

Suddenly, outside the Mountain God Temple, the sky trembled slightly, and then a figure appeared in mid-air.

Chen Fei looked up. Even though the temple’s roof obstructed his view, he still sensed the aura of the Glass Clan expert from earlier. The expert had followed him in.

The entire Suspended Peak Mountain briefly stagnated due to Qiu Yu’s entry, and then immense forces began to surge towards him, attempting to expel him from the mountain.

Qiu Yu waved his hand, forcefully blocking the incoming invisible power within three feet of himself.

This three feet was like a chasm.

Qiu Yu looked down through the Mountain God Temple and saw Chen Fei, who had turned into a clay statue.

With a cold gaze, Qiu Yu’s right hand reached downward.

The Mountain God Temple shattered instantly, and the dozens of Glass Clan members that had materialized were reduced to ashes.

As soon as Qiu Yu appeared, Chen Fei within the clay statue had already started activating the Star Shatter Slash. Before Qiu Yu’s hand could reach him, over fifty essence shards floated around Chen Fei, then ignited instantly.

The sharp sword light sliced through the clay statue in an instant, then cut towards the mountain below.

Chen Fei had a vague guess. He wasn’t sure if his guess was correct, but he wanted to test it now.

Initially, Chen Fei had come to the Suspended Peak Mountain to slightly trap the pursuing Rule Integration Realm expert, hoping to create a chance for escape.

As the Glass Clan expert truly entered the Suspended Peak Mountain and reached for Chen Fei, Chen Fei realized something: the expert seemed to be deliberately restraining his power.

With the power of the Rule Integration Realm, even though the Suspended Peak Mountain was a formidable danger, it surely couldn’t trap him. If the primary goal was to capture Chen Fei, the Glass Clan expert could forcefully counter the Suspended Peak Mountain’s effects.

However, at this moment, the grasping hand was almost devoid of dissipated power, and the response to the Suspended Peak Mountain was merely passive defense.

This was highly suspicious. Why would the expert concern themselves with the Suspended Peak Mountain’s peculiarities?

Unless the peculiarity was somehow beneficial to the Glass Clan expert or the entire Glass Clan, which would necessitate caution.

If this hypothesis was correct, Chen Fei immediately thought of his previous strike on the Taiyin Peak, causing its twisted rules to erupt.

Could this event be related to the Glass Clan sending such a strong expert to capture him?

All these thoughts flashed through Chen Fei’s mind in a split second, but they did not affect his actions. He continued to channel his sword essence, almost at Rule Integration Realm strength, toward the mountain.

In mid-air, Qiu Yu saw Chen Fei’s actions and frowned instantly. His gaze shifted, but his right hand’s grasp remained unchanged, showing no attempt to intercept Chen Fei’s strike.

Chen Fei, sensing the unchanged attack from above, was somewhat surprised. Was his guess incorrect?

Chen Fei split his sword essence into two parts. One continued to strike the mountain, while the other surged toward the giant hand reaching for him.

“Boom!”

The mountain’s body shook violently, then split open with a fissure dozens of miles long. A piece of Rule Crystal appeared in Chen Fei’s field of vision.

Chen Fei extended his elemental power to pull the Rule Crystal into his body and immediately stored it in his spatial grid.

Though Chen Fei could have directly stored the unclaimed object into the spatial grid with his elemental power, he took an extra step to avoid detection by the Rule Integration Realm expert above.

Chen Fei had sensed the Rule Crystal vaguely when he turned into a clay statue, though he didn’t know its exact location.

Previously, Chen Fei didn’t have this ability. However, with the Great Completion of the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword and the perfected Celestial Suppression, he developed a slight sensitivity to Rule Crystals.

The Black Rat wasn’t by Chen Fei’s side at the moment. During their journey to Taiyin Peak, Chen Fei had entrusted the Black Rat to Lu Shuzhang for safekeeping.

Since Chen Fei was at the forefront, it was uncertain if he would face danger, so he decided to have Lu Shuzhang, who stayed behind, keep it safe.

Even without the Black Rat, Chen Fei’s ability to sense the Rule Crystal was already quite remarkable.

When Qiu Yu appeared and most of the mountain’s forces targeted him, Chen Fei roughly pinpointed the Rule Crystal’s location.

Therefore, the previous sword essence not only tested Qiu Yu but also aimed to see if it could locate the Rule Crystal.

Indeed, Chen Fei managed to obtain one piece.

As for the sword essence that countered the giant hand, it was easily shattered.

While Chen Fei could effortlessly kill mid-level Sun Moon Realm foes, it proved insufficient against a true Rule Integration Realm expert.

The Star Shatter Slash, while powerful, lacked the refinement of control that a Rule Integration Realm expert possessed. This subtle mastery over rules was beyond the reach of Sun Moon Realm practitioners.

Just as the same amount of power Chen Fei wielded was far stronger than other mid-level Sun Moon Realm experts.

Chen Fei’s use of the Rule Crystal’s power was full of flaws in the eyes of a true Rule Integration Realm expert.

His entire body was tossed backward like a broken sack, blood and fragments scattering around him. Numerous spatial rifts formed around him, tearing at his body.

The Suspended Peak Mountain shook violently, not only because Chen Fei’s sword had sliced through the mountain but also due to Qiu Yu’s palm triggering the distortion of the mountain’s rules.

The mountain’s power surged, launching a frenzied assault against both Qiu Yu and Chen Fei.

Qiu Yu looked down and found that Chen Fei, though severely injured, was not on the brink of death. His brow furrowed deeply.

Qiu Yu had calculated that his previous palm strike should have brought Chen Fei to the brink of death and immobility. However, the strength of this human race’s physique was astonishingly resilient, far beyond what a Sun Moon Realm expert should possess.

Chen Fei rolled through the rocks but immediately stood up. The remaining dozens of essence shards flew out and burned away, while Chen Fei swiped his hand, tearing open the Suspended Peak Mountain’s barrier and preparing to step through.

“Trying to escape?”

Qiu Yu snorted coldly, fully unleashing his Rule Integration Realm power. The entire Suspended Peak Mountain suddenly stalled, and an unparalleled force bore down on Chen Fei.

Despite Chen Fei using the Star Shatter Slash to resist, he still coughed up a large mouthful of blood, which spread across the crack in the barrier ahead. His body, unable to resist, was hurled toward Qiu Yu.

The disparity was too great; Chen Fei was completely powerless to fight back. The Star Shatter Slash could barely hold its ground.

As Chen Fei turned to look at the approaching Qiu Yu, his body began to disintegrate instantly, with terrifying forces scorching his form.

Qiu Yu’s expression shifted slightly. Countless forces pressed down on Chen Fei. Was this the tenacity of the human race from the Return to Nothing Realm?

He had only intended to capture him alive, yet the opponent was determined to fight to the death.

Outside the Suspended Peak Mountain.

Just as the barrier began to heal, a few drops of blood fell.

Suddenly, dozens of precious materials appeared, then shattered and transformed into countless essence that surged into the blood. A figure slowly began to materialize.
