Chapter 1696: Chapter 1685: Setting the Trap! Rapid Power-Up!
Inside the second room of the Dragon God Temple.
Due to the illusions of these Peak experts from the Second Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm, they are incapable of thinking. All they do is relentlessly attack Ye Chenfeng, which actually makes it a bit easier for him.
While dodging left and right, the Qingyun Sword in Ye Chenfeng’s hand is frequently swung.
The Third-Stage Fire Sword Intent and Qilin Profound Meaning within him simultaneously operate, instantly enveloping the entire Qingyun Sword in flames.
"Qilin Impact!"
Three gigantic Fire Qilins materialize out of nowhere, fiercely charging toward the surrounding illusions.
Qilin Impact, Phoenix Spreading Wings, and Dragon Soars Nine Heavens are successively unleashed, quickly consuming the Spiritual Energy within him. Luckily, Ye Chenfeng has Spirit Supplementing Pills on him, allowing him to replenish the Spiritual Energy consumed within him at any moment.
While eliminating the illusions of the Peak Second Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm, a continuous flow of energy pours into Ye Chenfeng’s body. Although each energy stream is small, they gradually break open the bottleneck in Ye Chenfeng’s cultivation.
Soon, all thirty illusions of Peak Second Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm were vanquished. Simultaneously as these illusions were eliminated, Ye Chenfeng’s aura surged dramatically, smoothly advancing from Peak Second Heavenly Layer of the Creation Realm to Initial Stage Third Heavenly Layer.
After the thirty illusions of Peak Second Heavenly Layer experts were eliminated, the formations in the four corners of the room flashed once again, releasing sixty illusions of Initial Stage Third Heavenly Layer experts in the Creation Realm.
It seems that as Ye Chenfeng’s strength grows, the strength and number of the illusions also increase accordingly.
The simultaneous attack of sixty Initial Stage Third Heavenly Layer illusions presents a challenge for Ye Chenfeng. With so many of them rushing all at once, Ye Chenfeng must focus intensely.
This time, Ye Chenfeng’s Third-Stage Fire Sword Intent, Qilin Profound Meaning, and Phoenix Profound Meaning are all simultaneously operating, with the aura of Fire Qilins and Fire Phoenixes intertwining around him.
Qingyun Sword swings out!
"Sky-Breaking!"
Three Fire Qilins and three Fire Phoenixes instantly form, their intertwined auras blasting towards the surrounding illusions. This move can swiftly destroy several illusions, as it is even stronger than Tenth Stage Unyielding Sword Intent.
Sky-Breaking and Tenth Stage Unyielding Sword Intent are rapidly executed, consuming Ye Chenfeng’s Spiritual Energy at an astonishing speed. Beads of sweat appear on his forehead, and his garments have long been drenched in sweat.
However, each time an illusion of the Initial Stage Third Heavenly Layer is destroyed, the energy flow into Ye Chenfeng’s body is a bit stronger than before.
Under the onslaught of Sky-Breaking and Tenth Stage Unyielding Sword Intent, Ye Chenfeng, though breathless like an ox, eventually obliterates all sixty illusions.
Simultaneously, as the sixty illusions are vanquished, Ye Chenfeng’s aura continuously surges, advancing from Initial Stage Third Heavenly Layer to Middle Stage, and swiftly into Late Stage.
Ye Chenfeng repeatedly consumes Spirit Supplementing Pills, as the formations in the room’s four corners flicker yet again.
This time, ninety illusions of Late Stage Third Heavenly Layer experts in Creation Realm emerge from the four formations.
With his strength rapidly growing, Ye Chenfeng’s excitement is overwhelming; his blood seemingly boils. The sensation of rapidly enhancing his power is simply exhilarating.
A satisfied smile graces Ye Chenfeng’s lips, this exhilarating combat style also brings him immense pleasure.
Though these illusions lack cognitive ability and are easier to handle than real people, their advantage lies in numbers.
Ninety illusions of Late Stage Third Heavenly Layer experts swarm toward Ye Chenfeng, employing Combat Skills as well.
This poses a challenge for Ye Chenfeng, given the sheer number and their considerable strength.
Ye Chenfeng finds it difficult to handle attacks from all directions simultaneously. Fortunately, his physical body has already advanced to Peak Fourth Heavenly Layer in the Reincarnation Realm, along with the protective Spiritual Energy around him, ensuring that any wounds are non-critical.
Sweat pouring down like rain.
Ye Chenfeng at this moment is like a battle machine, the Qingyun Sword in his hand continually annihilating one illusion after another.
Ye Chenfeng’s combat prowess is undeniably exceptional; amidst peers of similar strength, he is a crushing force.
Approximately half an hour later.
Ninety illusions of Late Stage Third Heavenly Layer were also all extinguished by Ye Chenfeng.
Eliminating one illusion results in an even greater influx of energy into Ye Chenfeng.
So, after disposing of ninety illusions, Ye Chenfeng’s aura surged like flooding waters, breaking through successive bottlenecks.
Four Heavenly Layer strength, leapfrogged from Late Stage to Peak, quickly entered Initial Stage Fourth Heavenly Layer, finally settled in Middle Stage Fourth Heavenly Layer.
Ye Chenfeng’s strength now firmly rests at Middle Stage Fourth Heavenly Layer of Creation Realm.
Indeed, Ye Chenfeng’s garments again became tattered; wounds dotted his body. As he attempted to stabilize his breath, preparing for the next batch of illusions, but after waiting for a considerable time no further formations flickered from the corners, leaving Ye Chenfeng feeling somewhat unfulfilled.
Old Bai Wu Fengxian remarked, "Little fellow, be satisfied! Your physical strength has surged to Peak Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Reincarnation Realm, your strength has increased to Middle Stage Fourth Heavenly Layer of Creation Realm, which is quite impressive. Remember your strength and physical prowess before entering the Dragon Origin Secret Realm!"
"I believe if the Dragon God Temple was at its zenith, the room’s illusions might’ve emerged nonstop, allowing for strength growth and a steady increase in combat experience."
After hearing Old Bai Wu Fengxian’s words, Ye Chenfeng sighs inwardly. Upon confirming that no further illusions would appear, he somewhat reluctantly exited the room.
Apparently, Chen Yuanhan and his Wind Thunder Sect comrades have yet to breach the external Barrier! A thought suddenly crosses Ye Chenfeng’s mind: to set a trap for Chen Yuanhan and his group.
Ye Chenfeng returns to the first room.
The color of the Dragon Ascension Fluid within the medicine pool has completely faded; Ye Chenfeng plans to configure poison within the pool.
Due to the limited Spirit Grass in the Qiankun Bag, after consulting with Old Bai and Old Hei, he can only concoct a toxin called Explosive. Body. Liquid.
This potent toxin specifically targets experts in the Creation Realm. Ye Chenfeng, with his current supply of Spirit Grass, cannot formulate a more potent poison.
Upon successful concoction, it deceptively resembles an energy-augmenting medicine bath: you’ll sense Spiritual Energy flowing into your body while soaking.
But, the effect is merely an illusion.
Just five minutes soaked in this toxin will result in immediate bodily swelling, culminating in sudden explosive death.
Though Ye Chenfeng now possesses Middle Stage Fourth Heavenly Layer strength, avoiding direct confrontation with Chen Yuanhan and others is preferable, given that they surely possess hidden cards.
Once decided on concocting Explosive. Body. Liquid, Ye Chenfeng quickly springs into action under the guidance of Old Bai and Old Hei.
Various Spirit Grasses are extracted from the Qiankun Bag; if only the Chaos Ring’s capacity were larger to store all Spirit Grass.
Another half hour passes.
Explosive. Body. Liquid is successfully articulated, immersing the medicine pool in a green hue, giving an impression of dense Spiritual Energy even to keen-eyed poison experts.
Ye Chenfeng’s anticipation grows for Chen Yuanhan and his cohorts’ struggle to breach the external Barrier, only to bask in a toxic pool unaware. What expressions would their faces wear when the truth unfolds?
Having completed the toxin concoction.
Ye Chenfeng exits the first room, proceeding towards the staircase leading to the palace’s second floor, eagerly anticipating the surprises awaiting him in the second level.
