Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chen Fei looked at his hands somewhat surprised, “To open the heavens and cleave the earth?”

However, Chen Fei immediately dismissed this idea. Such power couldn’t be described as opening the heavens and cleaving the earth, at least not within the Return to Nothing Realm. Far more strength was required.

If a somewhat crude analogy was to be used, igniting these fragments of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rules was somewhat like nuclear fusion, where the most essential forces were burned and released.

Chen Fei slowly clenched his fist and closed his eyes to feel for a moment.

If Chen Fei had had this secret technique when he fought Wu Han, he wouldn’t have needed to use the sword energy stored in his spatial grid; he could have easily crushed Wu Han outright.

“It’s hard to describe this power just by the number of rule fragments, but the more Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments there are, the stronger the power ignited, but the greater the strain on the body as well.”

Currently, the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments within Chen Fei’s body were scarce, amounting to only about two.

Moments later, the black lightning on Chen Fei’s body vanished, and his aura returned to normal.

Using the Godslayer State would burn the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments. Now that the two or so fragments had been burned out, he naturally exited the Godslayer State.

“In a real fight, I’d probably only have time to execute one move before it ended. I still need to increase these four types of rule fragments,” he pondered.

Chen Fei’s gaze was deep in thought, yet doing so presented a dilemma for him.

The Godslayer State was undeniably strong and could become Chen Fei’s standard combat state. There was absolutely no reason to abandon its development.

However, increasing the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments would inevitably delay the comprehension of Space Rule Fragments.

If Chen Fei were to cultivate now, he could only absorb insights from three aspects simultaneously, which was his limit. Any more, and it would lead to confusion.

Celestial Suppression and Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique were two martial arts that he definitely needed to continue cultivating. That left only one slot for understanding secondary rules.

Chen Fei had always studied Space Secondary Rules; the improvements in other rule fragments came gradually through the practice of Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique.

Mastering a complete secondary rule, reaching the peak of the Rule Integration Realm, i.e., the Emperor Realm, then cultivating other secondary rules next, was the way.

The cultivation habits passed down over many years in the Return to Nothing Realm made sense.

Without discussing the mutual influence between various rules, mastering a single secondary rule first could at least elevate his strength significantly.

The Peak of Rule Integration Realm and the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm were definitely not the same.

That’s why, after obtaining all the inheritances of the human race, Chen Fei still prioritized Space Rules, focusing on breaking through to the peak of the Rule Integration Realm first.

But now, the emergence of this Godslayer State presented a somewhat difficult choice.

After a moment’s reflection, Chen Fei decided to still prioritize Space Secondary Rules. At least mastering one secondary rule first was the plan.

As for Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind, he would naturally comprehend them through the Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique. Given his current skill level in this technique, the pace of cultivating these rule fragments was faster than comprehending any one rule in the Rule Integration Realm individually.

“In the Godslayer State, the connection with the vital energy of heaven and earth seems to become even tighter.”

Recalling the situation, Chen Fei sat cross-legged and first used half an hour to restore the burned Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments with the power of his panel.

Next, Chen Fei operated the Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique, re-igniting the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments as black lightning reappeared on his body.

The aura of destruction permeated the entire room, and Chen Fei began to operate Celestial Suppression, forcefully restraining the bursting rate of the Power of Destruction within his body.

If it weren’t for Celestial Suppression, a martial arts focused on augmenting physique, even if Chen Fei had obtained Nine Heavens Star Kill, he would probably not be able to ignite Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.

The impact of this power was too strong. With a physique that could only match the elemental cultivation level, he simply couldn’t resist such explosive power.

The Meng Clan of Wu Meng Race at the peak of the Rule Integration Realm could occasionally use this power, purely because they had mastered a complete secondary rule, and their physique had already undergone a qualitative transformation.

An ordinary physique in the Rule Integration Realm was merely a regular rule body.

And as the number of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rule fragments increased, the intensity and duration of this power’s eruption would inevitably grow.

If one could only barely resist or control this power, during a confrontation with enemies, it couldn’t become an aid but might instead become a burden.

An uncontrollable power, in combats among peers of the same rank, is very likely to become a point that opponents target.

Chen Fei operated Celestial Suppression, continuously reducing the output intensity of the destructive power within his body, transforming it from the floodwaters of a collapsed dam into a gentle stream.

To say it was a gentle stream was somewhat exaggerated, but Celestial Suppression invariably restrained the intensity of this power while maintaining its nature.

Controlled nuclear fusion?

The black lightning on Chen Fei’s body had disappeared, and his appearance seemed nearly the same as usual.

The situation was indeed such. Although Chen Fei had ignited Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind inside him, because he forcibly restrained it, his power now was almost the same as in the past.

But even though the power remained the same, Chen Fei’s soul and Source Point Space were significantly different from usual.

Just as Chen Fei had previously perceived, under the Godslayer State, the vital energy of heaven and earth became extremely closely connected with him.

Igniting Earth, Water, Fire, Wind was, after all, a state pertaining to the Open Heaven Realm, and the perception of the vital energy of heaven and earth in the Open Heaven Realm was naturally incomparable to that in the Rule Integration Realm.

Igniting the Earth, Water, Fire, Wind fragments as a secret technique, is likely to be possessed by many races that have reached the Open Heaven Realm, given that there are traditionally just two ways to break through to the Open Heaven Realm.

Developing such a secret technique was almost inevitable.

But Chen Fei was probably the first one from the Rule Integration Realm who wanted to convert this battle technique into a routine cultivating method.

For others in the Rule Integration Realm to achieve what Chen Fei had, too many prerequisites were needed, and it was almost impossible to complete.

The strength of the physique was a threshold, at least at the Peak of Rule Integration Realm.

However, this could be resolved; it was not impossible.

The hardest issue to resolve was to comprehend the four types of rule fragments beforehand without reaching the Peak of Rule Integration Realm and find a way to merge them.

To ignite Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and then to add difficulty to one’s cultivation before reaching the Peak of Rule Integration Realm is hard to clarify whether it’s right or wrong.

As for those already at the Peak of Rule Integration Realm and about to master four secondary rules, what they consider is how to truly break through to the Open Heaven Realm, not dwelling on trivialities of a minor Open Heaven Realm.

Crucially, using this secret technique also damages the origin, something they would not even consider.

Chen Fei had created another unique secret technique, usable only by himself, just like the complicated martial arts, Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique.

Chen Fei perceived the consumption situation of the Earth, Water, Fire, Wind rule fragments, it was much slower than usual, yet it was still depleting, and would probably be exhausted in about an hour.

Even while depleting, and as Chen Fei let the board replenish these four types of rule fragments, the maximum he could do was to extend the time to two hours.

Afterward, Chen Fei would have to spend another hour completely restoring the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind rules before he could start the next round of cultivating.

“It seems best to first elevate these four secondary rules to a sustainable consumption state before cultivating space rules,”

A thought flashed through Chen Fei’s mind; he closed his eyes and began to officially try out the state of this minor Open Heaven Realm to see how much it could accelerate his cultivation speed.

As Chen Fei’s mental defense sank, the state of the vital energy of heaven and earth around him was clearly displayed in his perception, unprecedentedly so.

Observing the collision and merging of the vital energies, Chen Fei was momentarily stunned there.

It turned out that there were so many details among the vital energies of heaven and earth, and Chen Fei had never noticed them before, as if a veil had always covered him.

Chen Fei began to operate his martial arts, an epiphany appeared in his sea of consciousness, he easily grasped it, combining it with today’s insightful fission.

In just a moment of cultivating, a smile involuntarily appeared on Chen Fei’s face.

It was too easy. At this moment, Chen Fei was not shattering low-grade Primordial Crystals in the room.

But with the current speed of Chen Fei’s cultivating, it could directly compare to the original instance when he shattered ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals to assist with the epiphany.

This involved the ignition of Earth, Water, Fire, Wind fragments, and of course, also Chen Fei’s talent, both complementing each other, resulting in the extremely exaggerated cultivating speed now.

Chen Fei opened his eyes, moved his hands, and set up a few more formations in the room, then without hesitation, shattered ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals.

The rich vital energy of heaven and earth instantly filled the space, and Chen Fei closed his eyes to begin cultivating anew.

During this session of cultivation, Chen Fei’s eyebrows even slightly trembled.

If, before today, shattering ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals equated to about eight days in one,

then now, with multiple states bolstered, ten thousand low-grade Primordial Crystals equated to about thirty days in one.

One day equates to a month, the increase in efficiency was simply outrageous.

It still pales in comparison to Rule Crystals, but Rule Crystals are inescapable but rare items; not even in the Wu Meng Clan’s task hall were there any exchange projects for Rule Crystals seen.

Thus, Rule Crystals do not constitute regular cultivating materials.

Originally, the effect of one day of cultivation by Chen Fei far surpassed others in the Rule Integration Realm, but now one day even equaled a month.

Chen Fei briefly calculated; the current skill level of the new martial arts, Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique, was at seventy percent in the Great Perfection Realm. If it were the original rate of eight days in one, to reach the stage of Perfection, that would require at least three months of arduous cultivation.

To reach Great Completion would be close to a year, almost certainly.

But now, to reach the stage of Perfection in the Desolate Universe God Slaying Technique, Chen Fei would need just less than a month, and Great Completion just over three additional months.

Less than half a year was needed to elevate this martial arts to Great Completion.

There was also Celestial Suppression, this overly lengthy skill, initially estimated to require nearly a hundred years to cultivate to Perfection.

Now, finally, there is hope for success in a short period.
