Chapter 401 - 401: Defeat



After the violent shaking of the Sword Return Tower’s main peak, it finally began to calm down slowly. Sui Wengong held his long sword, taking a few steps back.

Others looked at Sui Wengong with some tension. Just now, the attack that occurred was unstoppable except by Sui Wengong. Even if they had the power of the formation, the result would have been the same.

Facing such an attack head-on required great courage, and any slight mistake could mean certain death.

“I’m fine!” Sui Wengong said in a deep voice.

Hearing Sui Wengong’s words, the others couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Xing Xinzhao glanced at Sui Wengong’s trembling arm. Despite Sui Wengong’s efforts to control it, the damage was still apparent.

Such an attack at the pinnacle of the Aperture Tempering realm was not something easily resisted. Sui Wengong was fortunate to have only suffered minor arm damage.

If this had happened outside the mountain gate, no one would have survived such an attack, not even Sui Wengong.

Just as Sui Wengong was about to continue speaking, he suddenly looked forward, sensing a renewed sense of danger. The opponent’s attack was far from over.

It wasn’t just Sui Wengong; because the formation had linked everyone’s breath together, what Sui Wengong perceived, the others also felt.

The previous arrow had already damaged the Sword Return Tower’s formation. If the same attack came again, it would be even more difficult for Sui Wengong to defend against.

After the next arrow, the formation of the main peak would be severely damaged, and in a vicious cycle, by the third arrow, Sui Wengong would be injured, and the main peak’s formation would shatter.

The formation of the Sword Return Tower was formidable, but ultimately, it was designed to defend against advanced Aperture Tempering realm cultivators. When facing a Aperture Tempering realm pinnacle attack, it became extremely challenging.

If Xing Xinzhao hadn’t been injured, there would have been some hope of withstanding the Aperture Tempering realm pinnacle attack with the combined power of two advanced Aperture Tempering realm cultivators. But unfortunately, Xing Xinzhao was injured, leaving Sui Wengong to stand alone.

“Just now, the aura felt somewhat similar to that kid who stole the techniques last time,” Sui Wengong turned to look at Xing Xinzhao.

“Yes, but that kid’s cultivation at the time was at most in the mid-Aperture Tempering realm,” Xing Xinzhao frowned.

If Chen Fei had been in the advanced Aperture Tempering realm at the time, even with the combined efforts of Qu Qingsheng and Zhou Zixun, Xing Xinzhao wouldn’t have been able to escape, even if he had shattered all of his meridians.

It had only been half a year since then, and no matter how fast one’s cultivation improved, it was impossible for it to skyrocket to the level of the Aperture Tempering realm pinnacle.

“Unless such an attack requires a long time to gather power!” Sui Wengong’s eyes lit up slightly.

Recalling the initial sense of danger and the actual attack, it did indeed take quite some time in between. Although it was still baffling how someone at the mid-Aperture Tempering realm could unleash such a powerful attack, as long as they didn’t give the opponent time to gather power, they could at least solve most of the problem.

However, the only problem now was that Chen Fei could attack them from a distance, but they had no means of launching a long-range attack on him. To disrupt Chen Fei’s power buildup, they would have to charge over.

But doing so would mean giving up the advantage of the mountain gate formation.

“The Primordial Sword Sect is unlikely to send their whole sect here. We’ll go together, and when the time comes, you and I will engage Qu Qingsheng and Zhou Zixun, while the others take care of the remaining people!” Xing Xinzhao said.

In theory, techniques that require time to gather power and can deliver attacks of the Aperture Tempering realm late stage’s intensity should be difficult to use consecutively. They could result in a mutual destruction.

But Sui Wengong and Xing Xinzhao didn’t want to take chances. After all, if that same attack happened again, the formation would be severely damaged, Sui Wengong would be injured, and their overall combat strength would be greatly reduced.

Besides, the momentum coming from a distance was rising, and it didn’t seem like a mere bluff. If they were overly cautious and kept receiving consecutive attacks, they might end up without the strength to resist.

Normally, such Aperture Tempering realm pinnacle attacks couldn’t be used consecutively. However, with a powerful top-grade spiritual weapon, it might be possible.

A top-grade spiritual weapon? It did seem like a possibility!

“Go!”

Sui Wengong shouted lowly and dashed forward, taking the lead. Except for one person staying behind to maintain the formation, the other Sword Return Tower elders followed suit.

Several miles away, Chen Fei held his longbow, crackling with electricity, as his aura continued to rise.

He knew that the bow and arrow would be damaged after a single shot. Before coming here, Chen Fei had purchased dozens of fine iron longbows in the West Cloud City.

It was challenging to buy spiritual weapon-grade bows and arrows, but these fine iron longbows were easy to obtain. One shot, one broken bow, and Chen Fei felt no remorse.

Chen Fei had considered obtaining a spiritual weapon-grade bow and arrow, but for this power-charging attack with explosive force, even a low-grade spiritual bow might withstand it, but using it once would inevitably damage its spirituality.

And this kind of damage was almost irreversible, permanently harming the spiritual bow. After multiple uses, the spirituality might be depleted entirely, turning it into an ordinary bow and arrow.

A low-grade spiritual bow barely had any effect on this electromagnetic cannon-like attack. After careful consideration, Chen Fei decided to use regular fine iron longbows as disposable items.

With a thunderous roar, countless lightning bolts flickered around Chen Fei, as if confronting divine wrath.

The power attached to the arrows gradually increased. Compared to before, Chen Fei had mastered some details, and the speed of his power buildup had improved significantly.

Suddenly, Chen Fei’s expression changed slightly, and he saw some black dots in the distance heading toward his location.

Chen Fei squinted his eyes, and as the black dots approached, they turned out to be the people from the Sword Return Tower.

Chen Fei scanned them and found that the elders of the Sword Return Tower had almost emptied their ranks. It seemed that the previous arrow had indeed inflicted some pain on the Sword Return Tower.

The crucial point was that they were still being passively attacked and couldn’t retaliate, which was quite frustrating.

A faint smile played on Chen Fei’s lips as he adjusted the direction of his bow towards the Sword Return Tower’s people.

“Spread out!”

Sui Wengong was at the forefront, suddenly feeling a chill in his heart, his expression changing drastically. With a low shout, Sui Wengong’s figure began to flicker and evade.

Hearing Sui Wengong’s words, the others didn’t hesitate and quickly spread out, keeping a significant distance from each other. They also began to use various means of teleportation to avoid being locked on.

Chen Fei, holding the bow, sensed for a moment and then raised the bow and arrow once more, aiming at the main peak of the Sword Return Tower.

In the extreme state of the electromagnetic cannon, hitting a single person was indeed quite challenging because, in the end, Chen Fei’s control over this arrow had become extremely weak.

Almost all of his focus was spent on how to balance the various forces on the arrow to prevent it from exploding during flight before reaching the target.

This kind of attack that surpassed his own strength had its drawbacks.

However, these drawbacks had long been anticipated by Chen Fei.

Feeling that he wasn’t being targeted himself, the people from the Sword Return Tower let out a sigh of relief as they approached. After all, just thinking about the scene they had witnessed on the main peak earlier, they couldn’t help but shiver.

If you didn’t dodge, you would undoubtedly be instantly obliterated, without any chance of survival.

Even if it just grazed you, it would still result in a severe injury.

Ignoring the approaching Sword Return Tower members, Chen Fei continued to charge up his attack. When he felt that the power within the arrow had reached its peak, Chen Fei released the arrow.

“Hum!”

Another sonic boom cloud appeared behind Chen Fei, and the tremendous force caused numerous cracks to appear where he stood.

Massive cracks crossed the surroundings, as if at any moment, the rocks underfoot were going to collapse completely.

On the main peak of the Sword Return Tower, Yuan Nanyun, who had stayed behind to maintain the formation, suddenly felt a chilling sensation that pierced to his very core. Subconsciously, he looked up and saw a glaring lightning pillar rushing towards him from a distance.

Yuan Nanyun’s soul seemed to leave his body as he tried to escape but found it was already too late.

Yuan Nanyun had thought that staying on the main peak would be relatively safe. After all, it didn’t make sense for such a powerful attack to target the formation when attacking the people was more critical.

However, Yuan Nanyun didn’t expect that the opponent would completely disregard common sense and waste such an attack on the Sword Return Tower’s formation.

“Boom!”

The Sword Return Tower formation trembled violently, the shield flickering unpredictably. Inside the formation, Yuan Nanyun was already bleeding from all seven orifices due to the intense shock.

Previously, when Sui Wengong intercepted the arrow, the formation took half of the force, and Sui Wengong blocked the other half. Otherwise, if all the power had been absorbed by the formation, it would have shattered.

But Yuan Nanyun was just in the early Aperture Tempering realm, and at this moment, there were no other elders to lend their power. He couldn’t possibly block the arrow himself, so he had to let the formation bear everything.

*Crack! Crack! Crack! *

The shield suddenly emitted a cracking sound, and in the next moment, the protective formation directly shattered. Yuan Nanyun sprayed a mouthful of blood mist into the air before collapsing to the ground.

The remaining force on the arrow forcibly pierced through the entire main peak, leaving behind a massive hole that penetrated from front to back, causing the earth to shake.

The disciples of the Sword Return Tower stared blankly at everything unfolding before their eyes. In the next moment, chaos ensued, and they scattered in all directions. Faced with such power, those in the Body Tempering Realm had no hope of resisting, be it the Bone Tempering Realm or the Visceral Tempering realm.

Sui Wengong and the others who were charging forward felt the changes at the main peak and their expressions turned grim. Their eyes locked onto Chen Fei in the distance with a fierce glare.

The two sides were now separated by less than a few hundred meters.

Moreover, when they arrived here, Sui Wengong and Xing Xinzhao hadn’t sensed the presence of any other Primordial Sword Sect members. Qu Qingsheng and Zhou Zixun were nowhere to be found.

In the distance, there was only Chen Fei alone.

“Insolent scum, you shall die!” Xing Xinzhao exclaimed sternly.

“Kill!” the other Sword Return Tower elders shouted loudly.

Chen Fei’s longbow turned into ashes in his hand, and a new fine iron longbow fell into his grasp from the ground. He quickly nocked an arrow, drew the bowstring, and thunder roared. In the next moment, the arrow transformed into a black lightning bolt, heading towards one of the Sword Return Tower elders.

In the case of the Limit Electromagnetic Cannon, Chen Fei needed to charge up to unleash an attack approaching the level of the Aperture Tempering realm pinnacle.

However, for a regular Electromagnetic Cannon, Chen Fei didn’t need to charge up at all. With the Great Thunder Sword at Great Completion, he could easily achieve this. Chen Fei’s cultivation was already in the advanced Aperture Tempering realm, so any of his attacks possessed the power of the advanced Aperture Tempering realm. Using a bow and arrow merely allowed him to have ranged capabilities.

*Bang!*

A muffled explosion resounded as the Sword Return Tower elder, who had been constantly teleporting to evade, was blown into the air and shattered by the arrow.. A mist of blood filled the air!
