Chapter 1074: Chapter 1030: Penta Kill

“`

Chen Fei ended his cultivation session and got to his feet, opening the door of the cultivation room to see Qin Yunfang outside.

“Senior Qin,” Chen Fei greeted with a cupped fist salute, inviting Qin Yunfang in.

“I hope I didn’t disturb your seclusion,” Qin Yunfang said with a smile as he entered the cultivation room.

“Senior, you’re too kind. Is there something you’ve come for?” Chen Fei asked in a low voice.

“There is indeed one matter.”

Hearing Chen Fei’s words, Qin Yunfang’s smile faded slightly; after a moment’s consideration, he said,

“You have been in seclusion recently and might not know the situation outside. Right now, our confrontation with the Ice Race and the Evil Clans at the battlefront is relentless. Once someone steps into the fray, there is no turning back.”

Chen Fei’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and he already understood why Qin Yunfang was here.

And without any further concealment, Qin Yunfang continued,

“Previously, a member of the Evil Clans at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm named Si Sheng challenged you to a duel, but we declined. However, in recent days, Si Sheng has fought and won consecutively, killing five of our Rule Integration Realm early-stagers.”

Qin Yunfang’s voice was somber as he spoke; the lives of five early-stagers in the Rule Integration Realm were not easily cultivated by the human race.

Yet now, these five individuals had been killed in battle by Si Sheng.

“Five people?”

Chen Fei showed a hint of surprise. Half a month ago, the news he had heard in the black market mentioned only two.

He hadn’t expected that in less than half a month, three more early-stagers from the Human Clan’s Rule Integration Realm had been slain.

This Si Sheng’s strength was evidently far greater than an average early-stager of the Rule Integration Realm. After all, under these circumstances, Jiguang City would definitely not send an ordinary fighter to the battlefield.

“Yes, five people!” Qin Yunfang confirmed gravely.

“Does senior seek me out because you hope I will join the battle?” Chen Fei asked, somewhat puzzled.

Previously, even after Si Sheng’s two victories, Jiguang City was unwilling to let Chen Fei fight. Now that Si Sheng had killed five people, they were actually considering letting Chen Fei duel with Si Sheng?

Chen Fei himself did not feel any aversion. No matter how strong Si Sheng was, he was still only at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm.

Having grasped the Space Secondary Rules to a small extent, Chen Fei could now roughly achieve control over space to his will, on both a large and small scale.

Even without considering the enhancements to his physique, and just from the special nature of the Space Rules, Chen Fei facing off against an opponent at the peak of the early Sun Moon Realm with thirty-six fragments of rules wouldn’t pressure him in the slightest.

Not to mention that the Celestial Suppression had granted his physique twelve fragments of the Power Rule, which typically meant an overwhelming advantage over anyone at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm.

Furthermore, facing a prodigy like Si Sheng, if Chen Fei were able to slay him, and then covertly use the Bronze Rune to seize part of his talent, Chen Fei’s own insight would surely increase dramatically.

Chen Fei was now experiencing the joy of being a prodigy, and facing such an opportunity, he had no reason to refuse.

“Given your talent, it’s a foregone conclusion that you will reach the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm in the future. Steady growth could even give you the chance to become our clan’s imperial sovereign,” Qin Yunfang said seriously.

Therefore, even with Si Sheng claiming the lives of five early-stagers from our clan, we never planned to let you enter the battle. But just yesterday, Si Sheng proposed a condition. Because of that, we wanted to ask for your opinion,” said Qin Yunfang earnestly.

“What condition?”

Chen Fei was curious; it seemed that this condition was what made Jiguang City change their initial stance.

“Si Sheng, having cultivated up to now, is actually not yet a hundred years old. To duel with you, he has offered to seal his own cultivation realm, allowing himself to use at most five fragments of rules,” Qin Yunfang explained in a low voice.

The strength of someone in the Rule Integration Realm comes partly from martial arts, which represents skill.

The number of rule fragments, on the other hand, signifies Basic Power.

Both aspects are critical, but fundamentally, all in the Rule Integration Realm typically place greater importance on the quantity of rule fragments.

Si Sheng’s self-imposed seal, leaving only five rule fragments within his body, was akin to handicapping himself severely.

The Ice Race and the Evil Clans, by various means, sought to slay Chen Fei, the prodigy of the human race, in order to eliminate a major future threat.

Just as the Ice Race and the Evil Clans viewed Chen Fei, the human race’s upper echelons were now regarding Si Sheng with the same consideration.

Under normal circumstances, to slay Si Sheng would be extremely difficult, and the Ice Race and the Evil Clans would not grant the human race such an opportunity.

However, this battlefront duel presented a legitimate chance to eliminate Si Sheng.

Still, due to Si Sheng’s extraordinary talent and immense battle strength, sending five early-stagers from the Rule Integration Realm had not been enough to kill him. The most recent attempt only resulted in his severe injury, without achieving a kill.

That’s why Si Sheng’s proposition was so tantalizing for the human race, but ultimately, they decided to come and ask for Chen Fei’s opinion.

If Chen Fei was willing to go, it meant he was confident.

If Chen Fei was unwilling, the human imperial sovereigns would not force him, since Chen Fei’s potential was truly significant for the future. Risking his life now would hardly be worth it.

“How many Space Secondary Rule Fragments have you mastered?” Qin Yunfang asked in a low voice.

Asking someone about their mastery of rule fragments is usually considered very rude.

But given the current matter was related to the battlefront, the human race needed a clear understanding of Chen Fei’s specific cultivation progress.

“`

If Chen Fei were still in the stabilizing period of the Rule Integration Realm, with only one fragment of rules within his body, then even if Si Sheng suppressed his fragments to five, the human side would directly refuse this duel.

The gap between five and one fragment of rules is too vast, not to mention that Si Sheng’s level of practicing martial arts is extremely high, leaving Chen Fei without a sliver of chance.

“Uh, four!”

After thinking for a moment, Chen Fei reported a number.

Chen Fei couldn’t possibly reveal that he now had twenty-two Space Secondary Rule Fragments, that would be too frightening.

With the addition of the “Small” Space Secondary Rules, his cultivation progress during this half month had been incredibly fast, almost catching up with the gains from the previous two months of cultivating.

Even from the perspective of starting easy before moving to the difficult, the gains Chen Fei made in this half month surpassed those of the previous two months.

“You’ve already mastered four Space Secondary Rule Fragments?”

Qin Yunfang was full of surprise upon hearing Chen Fei’s words. It had been just over a year since the latter’s breakthrough to the Rule Integration Realm, and yet he had grown to such an extent.

Indeed, he was a genius on whom everyone set high hopes, truly beyond any ordinary understanding.

“My cultivation has slowed down a bit recently,” said Chen Fei with a grin.

“Four fragments of rules, good, very good!”

A smile couldn’t help but appear on Qin Yunfang’s face. The difference between four fragments of rules and Si Sheng’s five was no longer exaggerated.

Of course, Si Sheng was extremely proficient in power control, and ordinary Rule Integration Realm cultivators couldn’t compare, so Chen Fei was still in danger facing Si Sheng.

“What do you think?”

Qin Yunfang looked at Chen Fei. This type of pre-battle duel was mostly voluntary in principle, and this was naturally true for Chen Fei as well.

Si Sheng’s daring to seal his own cultivation indicated he must have other strong assurances. Therefore, although Chen Fei possessed four fragments of rules, it didn’t guarantee his safety.

“Besides sealing his cultivation, are there other wagers involved in this duel?” Chen Fei asked with a light laugh.

“Yes, a Rule Crystal,” nodded Si Sheng.

“Is it possible to raise the stakes further?” asked Chen Fei.

“You want to participate? The Evil Clans are very confident, and this battle will be very difficult.”

Qin Yunfang warned, then took out an Illusion Stone and, upon injecting essence force, an image materialized above it.

It showed Si Sheng facing off against someone from their side in each battle.

Apart from the fifth battle, in which Si Sheng was seriously injured and had a hard fight, he appeared relatively at ease in the previous battles to the death.

These five images held some reference value for Chen Fei.

But Chen Fei knew Si Sheng must have hidden his strength. Even the serious injury in the fifth battle could have been staged.

Because at Moya Mountain, Chen Fei had eradicated five early-stage cultivators of the Rule Integration Realm from the Ice Race and the Evil Clans. Though they weren’t certain whether Chen Fei was responsible, they had to consider this when facing him in a duel.

Under these circumstances, for Si Sheng to seal his own cultivation realm further reduced his power.

If those five early-stage cultivators were truly killed by Chen Fei, then Si Sheng’s actions would be suicidal, wouldn’t they?

“You need not consider the morale of Jiguang City; everyone knows you’ve only just broken through to the Rule Integration Realm not long ago, and nobody will place additional expectations on you,” Qin Yunfang reminded.

The human side was actually conflicted; they wanted to take this opportunity to kill the Si Sheng, but were also afraid that Chen Fei entering the battle could result in unexpected consequences.

“If I accept the challenge, when will the duel take place?” Chen Fei asked with a smile.

“If you accept the challenger, we will set the date for one month from now. In addition, the clan will provide you with the only remaining Rule Crystal to assist you in your cultivation!”

Hearing Chen Fei’s words, Qin Yunfang understood that Chen Fei had already made his decision.

Geniuses have their own pride. Having viewed the just-presented footage of Si Sheng’s battles, if Chen Fei was still willing to enter the fray, he probably had considerable confidence.

“The clan still has Rule Crystals?” Chen Fei was somewhat surprised.

Inside the Glass Space, the human race had certainly obtained many treasures, but in wartime, any good resources would be directly awarded to the Rule Integration Realm warriors in the form of battle honors.

Rule Crystals, such as they are, are simply treasures when stored away; only by utilizing them can they truly transform into the strength of the human race.

“A few from the Glass Clan offered one,” said Qin Yunfang with a smile.

Chen Fei came to a realization. It appeared those early-stage cultivators from the Glass Clan understood that they were now completely tied to the human race.

They knew that if the human race were really annihilated, the Glass Clan wouldn’t fare well either.

“Thanks to the clan for this gift!” Chen Fei said sternly.

“Be careful!” Although Qin Yunfang still harbored concerns, since Chen Fei had decided, all Qin Yunfang could do was to report the matter back to the imperial sovereigns.

An hour later, Qin Yunfang returned, bearing several items.

Not only was there a Rule Crystal sealed many times over, but also two jade boxes containing two portions of Sixth-Tier mid-grade spirit material, able to directly enhance the soul.

One day later, news spread throughout Jiguang City: Chen Fei would engage in a life-and-death duel with Si Sheng, the Evil Clans’ genius, in one month’s time!
