Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 879: Sun and Moon Divine Power

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei stepped off the stage, and the Boundless Sea erupted with cheers. Even the Sun Moon Realm experts and the Monster Emperor couldn’t help but smile.

This victory came at a crucial time, not only suppressing the momentum of the Black Divine’s faction but also clarifying the situation in Mortal Combatfor the Boundless Sea.

Especially on the Black Divine’s faction, where countless years of talented souls had gathered. The strongest among them were at the early and mid-level of the Fourth Rank.

With a peak Fourth Rank consciousness controlling the early and mid-level Fourth Rank individuals, the battle was naturally smooth and effortless, a comfort granted by the peak Fourth Rank consciousness.

However, this advantage was significantly diminished in the later stages of the Fourth Rank, and one could even say it was non-existent.

The reason was that these talented souls were incomplete. Even if the Black Divine could reincarnate them with his extraordinary skills, the fact that their souls were flawed could not be fully repaired.

These talented souls were not truly resurrected and would eventually die again after some time.

Thus, in the Fourth Rank late period, there was no advantage, and in the Fourth Rank peak, there was only a disadvantage.

The most terrifying part of the Black Divine’s faction was in the early and mid-level Fourth Rank battles. However, now, thanks to Chen Fei, the Boundless Sea had directly pressed the Black Divine and Shadow Island to the ground.

“Chen Fei, you did very well!”

As soon as Chen Fei arrived off the stage, Zhan Xuming’s voice echoed in his ear.

“It was nothing. This is a responsibility shared by all living beings in the Boundless Sea,” Chen Fei replied with a smile.

“Mortal Combat isn’t over yet. You might still need to exert yourself in the coming battles.”

Zhan Xuming’s voice paused before continuing, “If you need anything, just let us know. We will try our best to meet your needs.”

Mortal Combat was not over. The Boundless Sea had won one battle, but they needed to win one more and fend off the counterattacks from the Black Divine and Shadow Island to achieve final victory.

Particularly concerning was the Black Divine’ s counterattack. After all four life-and-death matches ended, the Black Divine, having won the early Fourth Rank battle, could directly challenge the Boundless Sea.

To ensure certainty, Chen Fei had to take the stage.

Indeed, in Zhan Xuming and others’ eyes, Zhu Xiaowen and the others were no longer reliable; only Chen Fei could be sent.

“I would like to request the cultivation method of the Sun Moon Realm, if possible?” Chen Fei hesitated for a moment and said directly.

Since Zhan Xuming had taken the initiative, this was likely the best opportunity to obtain the Sun Moon Realm’s cultivation method.

One cannot cultivate Sun Moon Realm techniques without being in the Sun Moon Realm due to insufficient foundational conditions. Just like how one at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm couldn’t cultivate the Mountain Sea Realm techniques because they couldn’t perceive their own soul.

But Chen Fei had a panel, and even if Chen Fei could not cultivate the Sun Moon Realm techniques, understanding the cultivation of the Sun Moon Realm would still be beneficial.

“Sun Moon Realm techniques?”

Zhan Xuming’s brows furrowed slightly. He initially thought that obtaining Sun Moon Realm techniques was pointless for someone at the Mountain Sea Realm. However, he thought of Chen Fei’s recent contributions to the Boundless Sea

Requesting a Sun Moon Realm technique didn’t seem excessive.

Others might not know, but at least in Zhan Xuming’s eyes, this was a reasonable request.

If they lost Mortal Combat this time, all their techniques would eventually disappear into history.

“I can’t get techniques from other Sacred Lands, but I can give you the Sun Moon Realm inheritance from the Stellar Divine Technique,” Zhan Xuming said solemnly, then produced a jade slip containing the Stellar Divine Technique.

In Zhan Xuming’s view, having one Sun Moon Realm technique should be sufficient for Chen Fei.

Even if he couldn’t directly practice it, understanding the cultivation of the Sun Moon Realm and having access to this inheritance was valuable.

The idea of obtaining Seven Sacred Lands techniques was unrealistic; other Sacred Lands would never agree to it. There was no way to enhance your combat power with so many Sun Moon Realm techniques.

“Thankyou, Sacred Master!” Chen Fei accepted the jade slip and bowed in gratitude.

“You deserve it,” Zhan Xuming said with a smile and a wave of his hand.

The surrounding people saw Zhan Xuming specially give a jade slip to Chen Fei but didn’t question it. At that moment, Mortal Combat for the Fourth Rank late period began!

Chen Fei couldn’t break through to the Fourth Rank late period to participate in the Fourth Rank late period match.

According to the rules of the life-and-death match, each person could only participate in their designated stage. The only exception to this rule was after all four life-and-death matches were concluded, the victors could challenge those from higher stages.

At that point, a lower-stage victor could choose to break through to a higher realm and then challenge the higher-stage victors.

This rule was originally set to limit the Black Divine. The Sun Moon Realm and the Monster Emperors knew that the Black Divine had the ability to reincarnate remnants of souls.

If the Black Divine created an ultimate freak and progressed from the Fourth Rank early period to the Fourth Rank late period, the other two factions would be left with no chance.

Unexpectedly, the first freak to appear was from the Boundless Sea itself.

One person had shattered the Fourth Rank mid-level, and if Chen Fei participated in the Fourth Rank late period match, he could at least win a few battles, even if he didn’t dominate.

But no one had anticipated this situation before.

Fortunately, the Boundless Sea had already secured one victory. Even if they lost the next two matches, they would still have a chance to challenge the Fourth Rank late period.

The first to take the stage for the Fourth Rank late period life-and-death match was the Black Divine and Shadow Island.

Compared to the Black Divine and the Boundless Sea, Shadow Island’s situation was the most passive, as they could no longer afford any losses.

Another loss meant they wouldn’t even need to compete in the Fourth Rank peak match. Whether the Black Divine or the Boundless Sea won, Shadow Island would have no stake in the outcome.

Having gone to great lengths to reach the Boundless Sea and create a spatial passage, their goal was to conquer the Boundless Sea.

If they didn’t win a single match in the life-and-death contest, it would be not only humiliating but also result in the loss of a World Spirit Pearl, turning them into a joke in the Ruins Realm.

Chen Fei glanced at the arena and then focused all his attention on the jade slip.

The Sun Moon Realm chapter of the Stellar Divine Technique detailed a more comprehensive method of breaking through from the Mountain Sea Realm to the Sun Moon Realm.

Previously, Chen Fei had obtained the Mountain Sea Realm chapter of the Seven Sacred Lands techniques, which included methods for breaking through. Sacred Lands didn’t hide this information.

The Sun Moon Realm chapter of the Stellar Divine Technique listed another breakthrough method. Though not conventional, using this method provided significant benefits for future cultivation in the Sun Moon Realm.

Conceiving Divine Power!

Sun Moon Realm cultivation revolved around this concept.

Divine Power was a powerful force originating from essence, energy, and soul, transcending them directly.

The reason Mountain Sea Realm practitioners couldn’t cultivate Sun Moon Realm techniques was that the Mountain Sea Realm lacked this Divine Power. How could one practice the techniques without it?

According to the Stellar Divine Technique, the method to break through to the Sun Moon Realm involved using a talent cultivated in the Divine Palace at the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm, integrating all other talents into it.

This process involved a qualitative change driven by quantitative accumulation, ultimately transforming the talent into a seed of Divine Power. This Divine Power seed then broke through the Sun Moon Realm’s constraints.

“So, talent is essentially the embryonic form of Divine Power,” Chen Fei mused.

When breaking through, the Divine Power seed was formed, which, once in the Sun Moon Realm, could quickly be nurtured into true Divine Power.

This initial Divine Power, or innate Divine Power, influenced future cultivation and combat strength.

According to the Stellar Divine Technique, innate Divine Power could be modified and continuously strengthened, but this was extremely challenging and required significant effort.

Sun Moon Realm cultivation revolved around the continuous nurturing of Divine Power. The number and strength of each Divine Power indicated how far one could progress along the path of the Sun Moon Realm.

Using the Divine Power seed to break through the constraints of the Sun Moon Realm was a somewhat unorthodox method. Few at the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm used this approach, as it was very risky.

If successful, it resulted in a smooth transition into the Sun Moon Realm with an innate Divine Power seed.

However, if it failed, the talent used as nourishment would be lost, and the Divine Palace, accustomed to the suppression of talent, would collapse.

This would cause a chain reaction, potentially leading to the destruction of all Divine Palaces, resulting in the loss of one’s life or incapacitation.

Thus, the conventional breakthrough method involved accumulating sufficient essence, energy, and soul to break through the constraints of the Sun Moon Realm.

While this method was more difficult and less direct than using the Divine Power seed, it avoided the life-threatening risks.

“Normally, a Divine Power seed is formed by merging six talents. If I reached the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm with ten talents, could I create a super Divine Power seed?” Chen Fei pondered.

Compared to the standard breakthrough methods, the Divine Power seed approach seemed more suitable for Chen Fei.

Ten talents could merge into a formidable Divine Power seed.

Alternatively, could six talents form one Divine Power seed while the remaining four talents formed another smaller Divine Power seed?

Those at the peak of the Mountain Sea Realm with only four talents still had a chance to enter the Sun Moon Realm, though the odds were slim.

A Divine Power seed formed from four talents might be weaker, making it rare for individuals to reach the Sun Moon Realm.

Chen Fei carefully studied the Sun Moon Realm chapter of the Stellar Divine Technique, gaining a broad understanding of Sun Moon Realm cultivation, which would guide his future practice in the Mountain Sea Realm.

Suddenly, a massive explosion drew Chen Fei’s attention back to the arena.

Blazing flames engulfed the arena, obscuring visibility almost entirely.

The Nirvana Fire, wielded by the Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, blazed intensely.

Compared to when it had been at the Fourth Rank mid-level, the Bloodwing Divine Phoenix at the Fourth Rank late period had seen its Nirvana Fire’s power increase significantly.

Divine beasts of the same stage were truly formidable adversaries, not merely a boast.

Yet, despite the tremendous strength of the Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, it was currently at a disadvantage. She Mingchuan slashed with his sword, shattering the void.

The surrounding Nirvana Fire was devoured by the spatial rifts, clearing a large area and forcing the Bloodwing Divine Phoenix to retreat into the flames.
