Chapter 835: Breakthrough, Sixth Divine Palace

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Is this a high-grade spiritual treasure?”

The shopkeeper looked at the Bird Cloud Blade on the counter, his expression filled with astonishment and suspicion. Chen Fei’s current cultivation level appeared to be only in the mid-stage of the ordinary Mountain Sea Realm.

No one said that someone in the mid-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm couldn’t possess a high-grade spiritual treasure, but it was indeed rare. Many in the late-stage of the realm still used medium-grade spiritual treasures due to insufficient wealth.

Those who could wield high-grade spiritual treasures across realms were all Sacred Land Prodigies. However, these prodigies would never sell their own treasures; they only needed to demonstrate enough talent for the Sacred Lands to provide them with cultivation resources.

If Chen Fei had been born in a Sacred Land, he wouldn’t have needed to worry about resources at all.

However, disputes were also common within Sacred Lands—where there are people, there is competition. Even prodigies could be secretly suppressed.

“Sir, may I ask about the origin of this high-grade spiritual treasure?”

The shopkeeper turned to Chen Fei with a smile on his face. “I don’t mean to pry, but nowadays, the Sacred Lands have regulations requiring scrutiny of spiritual treasures with unclear origins.”

“Is the aura of this treasure pure?” Chen Fei asked, his voice hoarse and somewhat proud.

“The spiritual essence and aura within this spiritual treasure are pure and flawless.”

The shopkeeper carefully sensed the Bird Cloud Blade, his expression subtly changing. He turned to Chen Fei and asked, “Did you forge this treasure, sir?”

Spiritual treasures used in the Mountain Sea Realm for some time would naturally absorb the aura and spiritual imprints of the realm’s techniques. This bonding was necessary for effective use.

Such spiritual imprints and technique auras were extremely difficult to cleanse completely; even using one’s own spiritual essence to cleanse them might leave traces of one’s aura within the treasure.

Therefore, whether a spiritual treasure had a previous owner could often be discerned from the imprints it carried.

Someone like Chen Fei, who could penetrate spatial layers and even manipulate the void to refine spiritual treasures, was truly unparalleled in the Middle Continent’s Mountain Sea Realm.

Achieving this required innate talents related to space, a trait nearly nonexistent in the human bloodline.

Awakening such talents was nearly impossible.

If it weren’t for Chen Fei exchanging teleportation runes in the Black Divine Dimension and subsequently mastering teleportation to Great Completion, enhancing his innate talents to this level would have been impossible.

“As for my forging, I have my own insights. It took ten years to shape this blade, nine years to engrave its arrays, and three years to imbue it with spiritual essence, thus creating a high-grade spiritual treasure.”

Chen Fei stroked his carefully groomed beard, speaking confidently.

Forging spiritual treasures was an exceedingly intricate task, especially when aiming for a high-grade quality. Taking over twenty years to forge a single high-grade spiritual treasure was already considered quite efficient.

“Sir, you’re a master forger? My apologies for any disrespect!”

The shopkeeper’s doubts were mostly dispelled, primarily because the sword in question possessed an exceptionally clear spiritual essence. He hadn’t encountered such a pristine spiritual treasure in many years.

Most of the spiritual treasures he handled had been used by others, their auras mixed and varied.

Of course, such treasures did not affect their functionality; with one’s own elemental power and spiritual essence, they could still unleash their full potential through proper care and nurturing.

“I also have a couple of failed attempts on hand. If the price for this one satisfies me, I can sell those to you as well,” Chen Fei said, lifting his head slightly.

“Please, this way, sir.”

Upon hearing Chen Fei’s words, the shopkeeper’s eyes brightened. He led Chen Fei to a nearby tea room.

The Boundless Sea had been restless ever since the arrival of the Black Divine, but with the establishment of the Sacred City, there was now some degree of security. However, the demand for various cultivation resources had only grown stronger amidst the turbulence.

The effectiveness of spiritual treasures in aiding cultivation was moderate, but they provided powerful strength during battles, making them highly sought- after in the market.

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Fei left the shop.

The Bird Cloud Blade, along with two low-grade spiritual treasures and one medium-grade spiritual treasure, were all handed over to the shop.

Despite the quantity, each treasure had been cleansed by the power of the void, ensuring their purity, which convinced the shop to accept them all.

Chen Fei didn’t purchase any Myriad Bamboo here this time; instead, he received high-grade elemental stones and departed directly.

Previously, Chen Fei had dealt in spiritual treasures and Myriad Bamboo at this shop.

Continuing to buy large quantities of Myriad Bamboo here might raise suspicions.

An hour later, Chen Fei ascended into the sky and vanished from the Green Cloud Market.

In his identity as a master forger, he divided the remaining spiritual treasures among several shops, exchanging them for a substantial amount of high-grade elemental stones.

Then, in shops where he hadn’t bought Myriad Bamboo before, he made batch purchases of the bamboo, spending all the remaining high-grade elemental stones.

Forty-eight pieces of Myriad Bamboo—that was Chen Fei’s harvest for today.

With the twenty-seven Myriad Clones stored within the Qianyuan Sword, Chen Fei was on the brink of possessing a total of seventy-five Clones.

This wealth was immense—enough to deplete the entire estate of a late-stage Mountain Sea Realm practitioner and still not match the amount of high-grade elemental stones he now held.

Seventy-five Clones could elevate any talent or technique from novice to complete mastery, including the sacred sect’s foundational techniques.

“With the talent Divine Blessing, from the Purple Sky Stellar Technique to the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique, but my proficiency is still low. Even with so many Clones, it’s not nearly enough.”

Chen Fei mused, tempering his excitement about his current studies.

Despite his substantial earnings, his expenditures were clearly more demanding.

Returning to Thousand Geese City, Chen Fei secluded himself in the secret chamber of the Tingfeng Pavilion, diligently transforming each Myriad Bamboo into Clones.

His proficiency in the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique had only just reached a basic level, making the Clone creation process moderately efficient.

It was sufficient but not ideal.

He aimed to further enhance his proficiency in the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique, which would elevate his control over dream power and enhance his spiritual restoration abilities.

However, with an insufficient number of Clones, he could only postpone advancing the Divine Blessing Dream Entry Technique for now.

Most importantly, Chen Fei needed to enhance his innate talent, as it directly influenced his cultivation level.

Equally crucial was the advancement of the Purple Sky Stellar Technique, his primary cultivation technique.

Currently, he had only achieved proficiency in this technique, sufficient to advance Chen Fei to the late-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm without much difficulty.

However, further advancement would require a higher level of proficiency.

Three days later, all the newly acquired Myriad Bamboo had been transformed into Clones.

In the secret chamber, Chen Fei gazed at the neatly arranged seventy-five Clones. Soon, these Clones would all be sacrificed, becoming the stepping stones for his cultivation advancement.

Picking up one Clone, Chen Fei instructed it to comprehend the innate talent Divine Blessing, then performed the sealing technique.

Moments later, a destructive aura began to emanate from the Clone.

By the evening of the next day, only twenty-three Clones remained in the secret chamber.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Chen Fei watched as a radiant light illuminated the fifth Divine Palace within him. His innate talent blessing had finally reached perfection.

A powerful vitality permeated his soul. Ordinary soul attacks or soul-consuming injuries posed no threat to Chen Fei anymore.

Although Chen Fei’s current soul recovery speed couldn’t match the dramatic blood rejuvenation of his physique, within the Mountain Sea Realm, his soul recovery rate was already extremely impressive.

With a wave of his right hand, Chen Fei opened two bottles of elixirs, and over twenty Dragon Breath Pills flew into his mouth.

As his cultivation level advanced, each Divine Palace required increasingly more energy. Dragon Breath Pills were highly precious, specifically used for breaking through to the mid-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Previously, Chen Fei had needed just over a dozen Dragon Breath Pills for his breakthrough. Now, that number had jumped to over twenty.

Fortunately, Chen Fei had acquired plenty during his last exchange at the Ethereal Lake, or he might have been troubled by the need for more Pills at this moment.

However, with this round of palace forging completed, Chen Fei realized that for his next breakthrough, in addition to planning for Clones, he would need to continue preparing resources like Dragon Breath Pills.

Currently, the Dragon Breath Pills stored within the Qianyuan Sword would likely only suffice for forging half of a palace.

Various thoughts raced through Chen Fei’s mind as the potent medicine rushed through his body. Guided by the Purple Sky Stellar Technique, all the medicinal power surged toward the sixth Divine Palace.

Given insufficient comprehension of the primary cultivation technique in the Mountain Sea Realm, palace forging would inevitably proceed slowly. Thankfully, Chen Fei had no such issues.

An hour passed, then two, then three.

Time flew by swiftly during cultivation, almost passing in the blink of an eye.

Within Chen Fei’s body, under the influence of the Dragon Breath Pills, the sixth Divine Palace was nearing completion.

“Boom!”

Like a reverberation within his soul, the top of the sixth Divine Palace was forged.

Chen Fei’s body trembled slightly, and a ripple spread out. A pattern started from the first Divine Palace, passed through the next two in sequence, and then attempted to connect with the fourth Divine Palace.

As the Purple Sky Stellar Technique operated faster and faster, this pattern smoothly linked with the fourth Divine Palace, then the fifth, and finally incorporated the sixth Divine Palace into the formation.

From this point, the six Divine Palaces had initially completed their first round of connection.

This didn’t signify Chen Fei breaking through to the late-stage of the Mountain Sea Realm. The initial connection of the six Divine Palaces laid the foundation for breaking through to the seventh Divine Palace in the future.

This process illustrated the exceptional nature of the Purple Sky Stellar Technique and Chen Fei’s decent level of comprehension, allowing him to effectively reduce the difficulty.

Although only a small step, it was invaluable for breaking through bottlenecks.

Chen Fei’s soul, deeply rooted within his physical body, instantly soared. The souls in the other five Divine Palaces, each carrying their own talents, followed closely behind the main soul.

A barrier appeared within Chen Fei’s perception, and his innate talent blessing erupted with a brilliant light, crashing directly into the barrier.

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a silent crack appearing in the void barrier. Chen Fei’s soul surged through the gap.

Chen Fei’s vision darkened momentarily, then he blinked and once again beheld the vast expanse of stars ahead.
