Cultivation: Start From Simplifying Martial Arts Techniques

Chapter 1042: Chapter 1009: Slaughterhouse

Miao Zheng saw that his sword did not hit its mark, his gaze fluctuated, sensing something amiss.

Just as he was about to unleash the power within the sword body, even if it wasn’t as strong as a direct strike, it would still sufficiently aid his next move.

But as Chen Fei slashed with his sword, Miao Zheng suddenly felt a sense of unease.

Without hesitation, Miao Zheng thought to retreat immediately.

The secondary rule Miao Zheng mastered was Illusion, a branch of the Space Main Rule, and what he was best at was hiding within spatial fissures to launch silent attacks.

Compared with Meng Ji’s Shadow Rule, the two seemed very similar in form, but at their core there were many differences.

Because it was a secondary rule of space, Miao Zheng’s body movements were undoubtedly faster.

After consulting with Meng Ji and Cui Dai, it was decided that if they found Chen Fei, Miao Zheng would attack first.

If they could kill in one strike, that would be best. If the human brat was only injured and not dead, then Miao Zheng would hold him back.

At that time, Meng Ji and Cui Dai would immediately join the fray, working together to obliterate the human whelp once and for all.

However, Miao Zheng’s first sword strike went without accomplishment, and Chen Fei’s response was nothing like the clumsiness Meng Ji described.

Miao Zheng took a half-step back, his back colliding directly with the Space Barrier, his figure involuntarily coming to a halt.

Surprise flashed in Miao Zheng’s eyes; he controlled a secondary rule of space, usually moving in and out of spatial fissures as easily as reaching into a bag for an item.

When had a Space Barrier ever stopped him while he was using the Illusion rule!

Almost instantly, Miao Zheng realized this wasn’t a Space Barrier but a force that had directly sealed off the space around him, creating an effect similar to a Space Barrier.

Miao Zheng looked up at the incoming slash from Chen Fei; his rhythm disrupted by the unexpected hindrance, there was no longer enough time for Miao Zheng to break the surrounding seal.

He had no choice but to first block this human’s attack before considering anything else.

Meng Ji had warned him: this human’s attacks were incredibly powerful. Although the techniques were crude, they should not be underestimated.

Miao Zheng didn’t seek to clash with Chen Fei head-on but used all of his Illusion rule for defense, even preparing various methods to release the force.

As a secondary rule of space, they were all adept at releasing force, and Miao Zheng was no exception.

“Boom!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The body of the Qianyuan Sword collided with Miao Zheng’s Kongming Sword, and Miao Zheng’s calm demeanor changed dramatically in an instant.

The Kongming Sword was only held in midair for a moment before it was pressed downwards, smashing into Miao Zheng.

Miao Zheng desperately circulated the Illusion rule, attempting to dissipate the Tremendous Strength transmitted from the Qianyuan Sword.

But it was futile; Miao Zheng didn’t feel the clumsiness in combat Meng Ji spoke of, he only sensed a boundless and terrifying power slicing toward him along the Kongming Sword.

Miao Zheng wanted to retreat, to dodge this strike, but the Space Barrier around him had become even more solid.

This level of Space Barrier seal was not indestructible; Miao Zheng could break it, but that required a moment.

But at this moment, where did Miao Zheng have the time to break this seal?

Moreover, with this clash, Miao Zheng’s body had already been penetrated by the formidable force on the sword’s edge, and the majority of his essence force was distorting under the stress, causing Miao Zheng’s bodily response to slow by half a beat.

“Ah!”

Miao Zheng roared in anger as the five fragments of rules he comprehended trembled violently, then four of them shattered immediately, leaving only one to maintain the Rule Integration Realm’s Cultivation Realm.

Once all the fragments of rules shattered, his rule body would become unbalanced, and the internal and external conflicts would lead to Miao Zheng’s even quicker death.

“Bang!”

The Qianyuan Sword, pressing the Kongming Sword, crushed Miao Zheng’s body from his left shoulder to his left leg, immediately breaking half of his body to pieces.

Agonizing pain swept through Miao Zheng’s whole body, and without the slightest delay, he fled frantically into the distance.

At the same time, his broken rule body began to rapidly recover, but the newfound strength of the restored flesh was far inferior to its original strength.

Meng Ji misled me, Meng Ji misled me ah!

Miao Zheng roared internally. This is the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm? This is just Brute Force with only crude techniques?

This human has already broken through to the Rule Integration Realm, of this Miao Zheng was absolutely certain.

As far as technique was concerned, it was certainly not refined enough to subtly probe, or else with that one slash, he, Miao Zheng, would have died on the spot.

But not refined enough is far from being associated with crudeness.

Chen Fei looked up at Miao Zheng as twenty warriors were deployed by Chen Fei to a hundred miles away; immediately afterward, ten warriors directly used forbidden techniques from the Desolate Night God Slaying Sword.

In a supreme sublimation, ten warriors burned to ashes, but ten strikes of near Rule Integration Realm strength were also slashing toward Miao Zheng.

The other ten warriors embedded the God-slaying Sword into the spatial fissures to interfere with any possible teleportation from Miao Zheng.

Attacks nearing the strength of the Rule Integration Realm, even ten of them, were negligible for a true practitioner of the Rule Integration Realm like Miao Zheng.

But now that Miao Zheng was injured, those ten near Rule Integration Realm attacks were not enough to harm him, yet sufficient to block his escape.

Miao Zheng looked at the incoming attacks, his face darkened as he dispersed them with a swing of his sword, but his body couldn’t avoid pausing for a moment.

That pause was all Chen Fei needed to appear behind Miao Zheng, continuing to slash out with his Qianyuan Sword.

“Don’t force me into a mutual destruction!”

Sensing Chen Fei’s appearance behind him, Miao Zheng flipped around, positioning his Kongming Sword in front of him and shouted harshly at Chen Fei.
