In a courtyard by the sea, a conversation unfolded in a study under the dappled sunlight.

“The weapons of Ning Yandeng’s group have surfaced in the market,” a voice echoed from the shadows of a corner.

“I was informed of this just now. What do you want to say?” replied the figure

in the azure robe seated at the desk.

“According to reports from the market, the seller of the weapons possesses mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation, emanating a fierce and wild aura. The probability of Ning Yandeng’s group falling to their hands is high,” the shadowy figure, now revealed in a black robe, spoke.

“Ning Yandeng’s group has been dead for so long. Do you seek vengeance for them?” There was a hint of mockery in the azure-robed figure’s voice, suggesting their relationship was not entirely harmonious.

“It’s not about vengeance, but the deaths of Ning Yandeng’s group implicate many among us. Falling into that person’s hands, one may never escape the confines of that prison for life!”

“That individual’s methods naturally do not tolerate people like us. However, I’ve heard they are not at ease lately, supposedly no longer within the confines of Sea Dominion City.”

“They’re indeed absent. So, is the appearance of Ning Yandeng’s group’s weapons a trap, intending to lure us out, or does someone believe the timing is ripe to sell them?” the figure in black murmured.

-Do you intend to test the waters? Don’t blame me for not warning you. If this step turns out to be a trap, you’ll never leave Sea Dominion City for the rest of your life!” The azure-robed figure frowned as he spoke.

“If we are to test, I won’t personally make a move. Moreover, the person selling the weapons has completely vanished from Sea Dominion City, leaving no trace behind. Their aura is also extremely unfamiliar, and no one has yet recognized who they truly are!” The shadow shook his head.

Chen Fei’s presence in the market was brief, but more crucially, the aura of his new identity was unfamiliar to everyone.

With the person missing and their identity unrecognizable, it’s as if the trail has been completely severed.

“If we’re talking about suspects, the three individuals who returned last time are the most suspicious. Especially Chen Fei from the Primordial Sword Sect;

he even met with that person once after his return,” the azure-robed figure spoke with a heavy tone.

Coincidentally, the five mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators who attempted to ambush Chen Fei died, yet the three individuals returned unharmed to Sea Dominion City. Following this, Min Yanlu began purging the traitors.

It was hard to believe that Chen Fei and the others had no connection to this

matter.

However, Min Yanlu’s swift actions had made others wary of making any rash moves. After all, if even a hint of suspicion arises, Min Yanlu was likely to strike.

During wartime, if Min Yanlu suspected you and you could not prove your innocence, he would likely take action.

Not for any other reason but to deter petty actions and stabilize the internal affairs of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

Otherwise, as others were desperately undertaking tasks, there were constantly individuals sabotaging the rear. If this had continued for too long, Sea Dominion City would have been at risk of descending into chaos, something Min Yanlu absolutely would not have tolerated.

Therefore, even if these individuals had suspected that Chen Fei and the others had issues, they could only have set them aside for then.

They couldn’t have even targeted the sects to which the three belonged, for at that time, unless there had been specific reasons, targeting those sects would have been tantamount to admitting guilt and revealing one’s own problems.

So, when Ning Yandeng’s group had been slain several months prior, these individuals could only have kept that matter buried deep in their hearts.

It hadn’t been until the appearance of those weapons in the market that their attention had been once again drawn to it.

“Chen Fei’s and Qin Haishan’s cultivations had been too low, merely in the early stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm, while Tong Linyun’s realm had been passable, being in the mid-stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm.”

The figure in black would have shaken his head, saying, “With the strength of these three, they couldn’t have possibly have slain five mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators alone. There must have been others involved.”

Although they couldn’t have probed Chen Fei and the others directly, it hadn’t meant they hadn’t been observing them.

Regardless of how one had looked at it, the abilities of the three had been evident.

Qin Haishan was at the second stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm, seemingly not far from the mid-stage, but whether he could take that step was difficult to determine. And even if he did, he would only be at the mid-stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Back then, Ning Yandeng and his group had five mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, clearly holding an absolute advantage.

Tong Linyun was merely an ordinary mid-stage Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, at best possessing decent defensive abilities. Then there was Chen Fei, rumored to have exceptional talent, comparable to the geniuses of top-tier factions.

But breaking through to the early stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm in less than ten years, these years could indeed lead to significant progress for geniuses.

However, there was still a limit to their progress.

From their observations, Chen Fei’s current realm should be at the second stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm, making him outstanding among second-stage cultivators.

But even the most outstanding among them were still only at the early stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm, with no connection to the mid-stage. Even for the geniuses of top-tier factions, it would take at least a dozen years to truly advance from the second stage to the mid-stage of Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

This timeframe was already considered very short, as cultivation progress had always been challenging, especially in Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

The figure in azure robes did not oppose. According to the information obtained from Xu Wucheng, he was also deeply impressed by Chen Fei, particularly by his exceptional eye technique.

As for his cultivation, Xu Wucheng had not noticed anything unusual about

Chen Fei’s cultivation during their close contact.

Clearly, the ones who killed Ning Yandeng’s group were indeed others, perhaps the person selling weapons today, or maybe someone else.

-These individuals are nothing but a nuisance. There’s no need for any probing. When the time is right, we can simply kill them. What good does sparing their lives now do?” the figure in azure robes remarked.

“In due time, there may be an opportunity, but I’m more interested in knowing who the mastermind is!” the figure in black spoke with a low voice, then his form transformed into a shadow, disappearing from sight.

The figure in azure robes glanced at the corner of the study, his gaze flickering with a determination for vengeance. Among them, this individual harbored the most ferocious intent.

During Min Yanlu’s last purge of traitors, one of them belonged to the other side. They were powerless to retaliate against Min Yanlu; otherwise, with that strength, they would have toppled the Thousand Feathers Alliance long ago. However, the figure in black clearly had no intention of easily letting go of the person who killed Ning Yandeng’s group and leaked information to Min Yanlu. Sea Dominion City was simmering with unrest, while Chen Fei continued his cultivation in seclusion.

Selling off five high-grade spiritual treasures had pushed Chen Fei’s stock of high-grade elemental stones to an unprecedented level. Besides his regular alchemical practice, Chen Fei began to utilize another treasure.

The cultivation chamber belonged to an area of absolute privacy. Logically speaking, no one could pry into it. However, Chen Fei harbored too many secrets, so he had arranged some formations within the chamber.

With an abundance of elemental stones, setting up these formations became an extremely easy task. Moreover, Chen Fei’s purpose in setting up these formations was not for offensive or defensive capabilities but purely for concealment.

Now, under this protection, even if someone were to attempt to peek inside, all they would see is a misty haze. Unless they forcefully broke through the formations, Chen Fei would detect it immediately.

There were methods to silently break formations, but doing so from a distance without making any sound was absolutely impossible.

This incomplete treasure consumed a significant amount of elemental stones for cultivation, but its effects were indeed remarkable.

Previously, despite not facing a shortage of elemental stones, supplying the treasure for cultivation had still been somewhat challenging. However, with over ten thousand high-grade elemental stones in his possession now, Chen Fei had more than enough to sustain long-term cultivation with the treasure.

The progress of refining the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique gradually increased. With a foundation in the perfection realm, Chen Fei began to stride forward boldly.

When Chen Fei had insufficient elemental stones before, he only used the treasure to cultivate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique. Now, not only was he cultivating the Suppressing Dragon Elephant technique, but he was also continuously pondering some mysteries with the help of the treasure.

These mysteries were imprints left behind by the previous owner of the treasure during the continuous use of it.

These imprints were not systematic and had no order, especially after the treasure had shattered, leaving the imprints fragmented and incomplete. Previously, Chen Fei pondered these mysteries to enhance the Three Lives Slicing Shadow Sword technique, aiming to further explore the complete cultivation steps of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, including how to reach the pinnacle of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

However, now that Chen Fei possessed the Profound Heavenly Sword, such endeavors were unnecessary.

What Chen Fei was more interested in now was whether the previous owner of the treasure had indeed created the part of the technique related to Suppressing Dragon Elephant Soul Tempering.

Chen Fei didn’t dare to expect to fully comprehend such a technique from this damaged treasure. However, even if he could gather just a fragment or a clue, perhaps he could piece together something useful.

just like how Chen Fei had once organized the Star Gazing Art from the incomplete walls in the Strange Heart Realm.

Even if the previous owner of the treasure hadn’t created the technique related to Suppressing Dragon Elephant Soul Tempering, the use of the treasure in the Mountain Sea Realm would certainly involve the manipulation of spiritual power.

If the panel could gather these insights, then that would be possible.

With Chen Fei’s current connections, he had no opportunity to access cultivation techniques related to the spiritual realm. None of the top-tier factions possessed them; only the Mountain Sea Realm experts did. However, it was impossible for Mountain Sea Realm experts to pass on these techniques to Chen Fei.

Regardless of the value of these techniques, if Chen Fei were to earnestly seek such techniques from them, it would likely raise suspicions among those Mountain Sea Realm experts.

After all, practitioners in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm couldn’t cultivate these types of techniques. So if someone from the Combined Aperture Tempering realm consistently sought after them, it would seem highly suspicious.

Seeking a top-tier Combined Aperture Tempering realm technique would seem more reasonable than seeking spiritual techniques.

Chen Fei sat cross-legged on the ground, continuously absorbing the special energy from the treasure into his body through the Dragon Elephant’s nodding, in his sea of consciousness, insights into the three techniques collided as usual.

But now, amidst these insights into the three techniques, there were also mysterious insights from the treasure swirling around.

These insights were not systematic and couldn’t be expressed in words, but Chen Fei could feel that he was absorbing something.

At present, these insights were still unclear, but as long as he persisted for long enough, quantitative changes would inevitably lead to qualitative transformations.

Chen Fei couldn’t summarize them himself, but the panel could!
