Chapter 991: Breaking the Situation
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“What’s wrong?” Feng Tao noticed Teng Li’s change and couldn’t help but ask.
“That group of three humans should have arrived; it’s just that I can’t determine their exact location yet.”
Teng Li looked up at the distance. In the dimness, he sensed a faint response. However, the distance was too great for him to pinpoint the exact whereabouts of Chen Fei and the others.
Feng Tao nodded. Based on the timing, it was indeed about the right moment for the three humans to have arrived.
Normally, Chen Fei and his companions should be on the route reported by the scouts earlier. However, no one said that Chen Fei was restricted to that route.
Given that Chen Fei could single-handedly battle and defeat dozens of mid-stage Sun Moon Realm opponents without losing ground, it wasn’t wise to send a large number of Sun Moon Realm cultivators to search for him.
Because if they actually encountered Chen Fei, the dispatched cultivators might never return.
“I’ll go confirm their location.”
Feng Tao thought for a moment. Waiting passively for Chen Fei to come to them was too reactive. If Chen Fei didn’t come, they would have to remain on this Taiyin Peak indefinitely.
It would be better to send out some additional scouts. They didn’t need to be many, just enough to slightly determine the location of Chen Fei and his companions to give them a clearer understanding.
“Alright!”
Teng Li nodded and then closed his eyes again.
Feng Tao waved his hand, and a dozen or so Evil Clan Sun Moon Realm cultivators gathered before him. After giving them a few instructions, these cultivators dispersed and disappeared into Taiyin Peak.
Five hundred miles away.
The divine ability Indestructible Vision vibrated lightly. Chen Fei’s expression shifted slightly; even at this distance, he could still sense it.
However, Chen Fei had anticipated this situation and it did not affect what he intended to do next.
At Chen Fei’s current position, not only was it beyond the sensory range of mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators, but it was also at the limit of his ability to disrupt Taiyin Peak.
Encircling and attacking with hundreds or even thousands of mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators was something that even peak Sun Moon Realm experts couldn’t accomplish.
Peak Sun Moon Realm cultivators were much stronger than mid-stage ones, but they were still within the same realm and could not achieve a one-man versus thousands scenario.

Chen Fei couldn’t achieve that either. When the numbers increased to such an extent, the factors affecting the battle result became too numerous.
The only way to eliminate these factors was through absolute strength to forcefully suppress them, such as with a Rule Integration Realm attack.
Chen Fei was not at the Rule Integration Realm. If he had reached the peak of the fifth level of the Celestial Suppression and condensed a body of rules, he could have disregarded mid-stage Sun Moon Realm attacks.
No matter how many there were, if they couldn’t break through his defense, it would all be in vain.
Chen Fei had not yet condensed his body of rules. Therefore, if he rushed in like this, even if he could identify all the weaknesses in the attacks, the sheer number of attacks would likely reduce him to dust.
When Chen Fei prepared to come to Taiyin Peak and knew that many alien Sun Moon Realm cultivators would inevitably be gathered here, he had already devised a plan to break the situation.
In the Great Perfection Realm of the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword, there was an extreme secret technique called Star Shatter Slash!
This technique used the divine soul to forcibly bind rule particles, controlling the essence of heaven and earth to unleash an attack far surpassing that of the Sun Moon Realm.
This was a technique that could only be used after reaching the peak of the Sun Moon Realm and achieving Great Completion with the Desolate Slaughter Night Star Sword.
At the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, one begins to clearly interact with rule particles. Forcibly manipulating a large number of rule particles can unleash a power far beyond that of divine abilities.
However, using a technique that exceeds one’s own strength will eventually backfire on oneself.
Once Star Shatter Slash is used, the backlash is almost no different from a full-body backlash.
Compared to a full-body backlash, Star Shatter Slash requires a long period of preparation, unlike the forbidden technique of a full-body backlash that can be used immediately.
Therefore, Star Shatter Slash is not practical in direct combat, as enemies would not give you that much time to prepare.
Moreover, Star Shatter Slash cannot directly strike Taiyin Peak from five hundred miles away; the distance is simply too great.
But Chen Fei also had Celestial Suppression a foundational technique of his clan.
With mastery in the Celestial Suppression, Chen Fei had already fused some rule particles into his body. Thus, relying on the resonance between his body and rule particles, he could forcibly extend the attack range of Star Shatter Slash.
A wisp of spiritual essence flew out from the Concealment Bell. Chen Fei lightly tapped with his left hand, and the spiritual essence quivered slightly, forming a celestial screen that completely enveloped Chen Fei and his companions.
The three, already in a state of concealment, were completely covered by the aura of the spiritual essence. Even if other aliens looked directly at this area, they would not see the three of them.
A minor technique from the original Eternal Night Chant was now perfectly applicable.
Lu Shuzhang looked at the minor technique Chen Fei casually used, his eyes showing a trace of melancholy.
The Eternal Night Chant, a legacy of the Sky Resonance Court, was comprehended by Chen Fei to a degree even greater than that of the Sky Resonance Court’s direct successor. This feeling was truly hard to describe.
Kuang Xingfeng glanced around, thought for a moment, and tapped his right hand on his forehead. A ripple spread out.
All traces of the three in this place were perfectly integrated into the environment.
Now, even if mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators stood directly here, they would likely not detect the presence of the three.
Chen Fei sensed the changes around him, a smile appearing on his face. He then took the Qianyuan Sword and thrust it into a spatial gap in front of him.
With a sound of sword chime, half of the Qianyuan Sword’s blade vanished from sight. Chen Fei formed hand seals, and the power within his body surged.
Chen Fei’s essence, energy, and divine soul operated in an extremely different manner, causing the surrounding space to tremble. The rule particles became clearly visible in Chen Fei’s perception.
Chen Fei’s divine soul leaped out of his body, and his ethereal right hand reached forward, forcibly grasping a cluster of rule particles.
His divine soul immediately felt a heavy burden, with the power of his soul rapidly depleting as it prevented the rule particles from escaping his grasp.
Without reaching the Rule Integration Realm, one cannot truly master the rules. To touch and use rule particles, one must contain them using divine abilities.
Otherwise, one ends up in Chen Fei’s current situation, where rule particles fluctuate according to their own patterns. Any attempt to control these fluctuations must contend with sufficient power.
Kuang Xingfeng and Lu Shuzhang could not see the rule particles; their level had not reached that stage.
However, they saw a burst of colorful light erupting in front of Chen Fei, and Chen Fei’s aura was rising at an astonishing speed.
In a daze, Kuang Xingfeng and Lu Shuzhang felt as though they were facing a Rule Integration Realm expert.
“This secret technique…” Lu Shuzhang’s eyes widened slightly.
“In the legacy of the Desolate Soul Emperor, there is a forbidden technique that allows one to imprison rules using the divine soul at the Sun Moon Realm,” Kuang Xingfeng whispered, looking at Chen Fei’s back.
“What Chen Fei is using now is probably a similar forbidden technique.”
Lu Shuzhang nodded but still didn’t understand what Chen Fei was trying to do.
The distance from here to Taiyin Peak was several hundred miles. Even a forbidden technique from the Desolate Soul Sutra couldn’t overcome such a long distance.
Even if it could be barely achieved, the power would have diminished to an unacceptable degree.
Kuang Xingfeng had also considered this issue, but for now, they could only watch.
In front of them, Chen Fei looked down at the rule particles in his palm. The Star Shatter Slash was constantly operating, resonating in a peculiar way with the rule particles in his hand.
Gradually, Chen Fei’s divine soul perception began to spread. First, it fully integrated with the surrounding essence of heaven and earth, then, through the essence, it permeated the rule particles.
In a progressive manner, Chen Fei’s perception extended forward.
The farther it extended, the greater the pressure Chen Fei’s essence, energy, and divine soul faced.
When Chen Fei’s perception reached three hundred miles away from his body, the pressure reached its peak.
At this point, any peak Sun Moon Realm cultivator from the human race would be instantly overwhelmed by this pressure. This distance was the limit for Star Shatter Slash.
Celestial Suppression began to roar and turn, forcibly resisting the pressure applied to various parts of his body, and continued to push the perception forward.
Finally, Chen Fei saw a black mountain peak and more than a thousand alien mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators appeared in his view.
Taiyin Peak. Teng Li’s eyes opened again, and he glanced around with a hint of confusion.
A sense of crisis inexplicably surfaced in his mind, similar to the unease felt during impending disaster.
Yet, as Teng Li looked around, he saw nothing unusual. There were no changes in the perilous Taiyin Peak either.
Despite this, the sense of unease continued to spread within his divine soul. Even with over two hundred avatars, Teng Li still felt a deep-seated anxiety.
Teng Li was the first to sense that something was wrong, and soon the other mid-stage Sun Moon Realm cultivators noticed the anomaly as well.
An oppressive feeling of impending doom seemed to envelop them.
The once-quiet Taiyin Peak suddenly became chaotic due to this sudden oppressive atmosphere.
The alien spectators who had come simply to watch instinctively began to distance themselves from Taiyin Peak.
As they moved away, the feeling of oppression began to wane, causing them to flee even more urgently.
“This situation is not right. We should leave immediately!” Feng Tao’s expression grew serious. Although he didn’t know exactly what was happening, sensing danger meant it was best to leave.
Yan Zhe nodded. Just as he was about to order the Ice Clan to retreat, a blinding burst of multicolored light exploded in the distance, and a figure appeared in mid-air.
With the appearance of this figure, the panic among all the alien races present reached its peak.
“Human Chen Fei, kill!”
Upon seeing the figure’s appearance, Feng Tao roared, brandishing his blade and launching an attack in Chen Fei’s direction.
In an instant, nearly a thousand mid-stage Sun Moon Realm attacks surged toward Chen Fei like a tidal wave.
The other alien races, who were fleeing Taiyin Peak, glanced back and saw the incoming tidal wave of attacks.
Against such overwhelming power, even a peak Sun Moon Realm cultivator would be blasted to pieces.
Chen Fei smiled slightly. From several miles away, another figure appeared, pressing down with his hand towards the thousands of figures from the Ice and Evil Clans.
In an instant, a colossal hand descended from the heavens.
