Chapter 189 - 189: Illusory Realm of the Great Cosmological Abyss (1)
“Alright, since you guys are going to class, 1 won’t disturb you anymore. The students of the clan school are still waiting for me.”
Chen Xianhe said with a smile as everyone prepared to head to the Nine Ruins Exquisite Pagoda.
“Thirteenth Uncle?”
“Go ahead.”
Chen Xianhe waved his hand.
“Yes.”
Chen Daoxuan cupped his hands and bowed. He led the fifty-four elites of the Fu generation into the green pagoda.
Chen Xianhe looked at the crowd that was gradually getting further and further away. He smiled and used the Wind Manipulation Technique to fly in the direction of the clan’s school.
He walked to the entrance of the Nine Ruins Exquisite Pagoda.
As if sensing the arrival of its master, the door of the Nine Ruins Exquisite Pagoda opened automatically, making a rumbling sound.
“It is said that Level Four and above magic tools have much higher intelligence than Level Three magic tools. This is probably the treasure spirit of the green pagoda.”
They walked into the green pagoda with their heads held high, and the elite disciples of the Fu generation followed behind them.
In the next second.
Everyone walked into an incomparably spacious space within the tower.
The Nine Ruins Exquisite Pagoda had a total of nine floors, each of which could be used to set up nine Great Cosmological Abyss illusions. These nine illusions could be set up according to the user’s needs.
Generally speaking.
Large clans and sects would choose a few types of illusory realms to temper themselves.
For example, illusions to temper the disciples ’mental state, illusions to enhance the disciples’ combat experience, and illusions to enhance the disciples ‘small-scale cooperation and large-scale combat.
The first time Chen Daoxuan saw the Zhou Clan cultivators fighting the Merfolk Clan, thousands of Zhou Clan cultivators gathered together and released a sword array that defeated the beasts controlled by the Merfolk Clan in one move.
It could be said to be extremely powerful.
Not all of the disciples of the Zhou Clan had very high levels of cultivation. The vast majority were even late-stage Qi Condensation cultivators.
However, this group of Zhou family cultivators, who were nearly ten times fewer than the merfolk clan, defeated the merfolk clan that was ten times their number and the beast group that was even more numerous.
It could be said to be powerful.
Compared to those rogue cultivators, the two of them were on a completely different level.
Chen Daoxuan estimated that even if the number of itinerant cultivators and the Zhou Clan cultivators were the same and their cultivation levels were the
same.
If the two sides were to engage in a large-scale battle, the itinerant cultivators would probably not be able to last more than a single round against the Zhou Clan cultivators before being defeated by them. After that, it would be a one-sided massacre.
This was the difference between well-trained and untrained.
Indeed.
The first deciding factor of a cultivator’s strength was their cultivation level. However, when there was no huge difference in cultivation level between everyone, other factors were also very important.
This included combat experience and the cooperation between cultivators.
The reason why the Western Defense Alliance was weak was not only because the Western Defense Alliance had the least number of people, but also because the Western Defense Alliance was made up entirely of itinerant cultivators.
These freelance martial artists rarely went through formal military training. In addition to the fall of the Southern Mountain’s City, very few of them had even been to the front line.
How much combat power could such an army of cultivators have?
Perhaps they could still be of some use in a one-on-one battle.
If it was a large-scale battle, the well-trained troops of the warship would be able to defeat them in a single encounter.
“Master.”
As soon as he stepped into the first level of the pagoda, a child-like voice sounded in the empty space.
“You’re the tower spirit of the Nine Ruins ‘Exquisite Tower?”
“Yes, Master.”
The childish voice replied again.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Daoxuan communicated with it through divine sense,””According to what I know, you should have the ability to set up an illusion. How should I set it up?”
“The Nine Ruins Exquisite Pagoda comes with nine types of illusions. The illusions on each level are different. If Master wants to add or delete certain things in the environment, you can directly communicate with me.
However, the setting of the illusion still had to consider the issue of realism. If the things added by the owner were too different from the original content of the illusion, it would cause the illusion to be too illusory and lose its sense of reality.
Therefore, the master needed to think about what to add or delete.”
” What’s the illusion of the first level?”
Master, please check your status.
Just as he finished speaking.
The scene before everyone’s eyes suddenly changed.
In Chen Daoxuan’s sea of consciousness, the golden scripture trembled slightly.
He suddenly understood that as long as he wanted to, he could escape from the illusion in front of him at any time.
However, the other cultivators of the Fu generation did not have this ability. They watched as the scene in front of them suddenly changed from the quiet and peaceful environment in the pagoda to the foot of the city pass with a desolate aura.
The older cultivators of the Fu generation were still fine, but the younger cultivators were directly scared silly by the scene in front of them.
“Kill them!”
Before everyone could recover from their shock, a wave of shouts rang out behind them.
They saw a group of about 100 enemy cultivators from the Yun Nation wearing spirit armor flying toward them.
Before they could react, the sword formation formed by a hundred flying swords charged towards them.
“All!”
Not only did someone exclaim, but he was so frightened that he directly sat on the ground.
Chen Fusheng was the oldest among them, but when he saw this despairing scene, he felt his mouth go dry and his body shivered uncontrollably.
One hundred late-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivators were wearing superior-grade Level One spiritual armors. They had been in battle for a long time and knew how to coordinate.
Such an opponent.
Not to mention them, even if the Qi Condensation Chen Daoxuan encountered it, he would have to run away immediately.
Even though Chen Fusheng was extremely scared, he still patted the storage pouch on his waist and the Natal Spiritual Armor quickly covered his entire body.
It had been nearly four years.
Under Chen Daoxuan’s special care, Chen Fusheng’s cultivation had already reached the eighth level of the Aura Refining realm.
This speed could be said to be the first of its kind among all the Qi Condensation cultivators in Guang ‘an Prefecture.
However, when he thought of the various resources he had spent on him, not to mention the big families of Guang ‘an Prefecture, even the Qianyuan Sword Sect would not be so bold as to invest so much on a mere Qi Condensation cultivator.
Unless this Qi Condensation cultivator was a direct descendant of a high-ranking official of the Qianyuan Sword Sect.
It would be more appropriate for the higher-ups to pay out of their own pockets.
The bigger the faction, the more standardized and systematic the training of disciples. It was impossible to play like the Chen family.
Besides, it didn’t affect cultivators that much whether they built their foundation a few years earlier or later.
Many cultivators invested resources crazily in the early stages and their cultivation increased rapidly.
There were countless examples of people who were limited by their comprehension after reaching Foundation Establishment, and their cultivation progress slowed down.
Therefore, sometimes it was not a good thing to raise one’s cultivation too quickly in the meditational stage. On the contrary, it was easy for cultivators to lose themselves.
To a certain extent, the Chen family’s cultivation method for the Dao Imparting Hall’s Sword Dao class was indeed a method of helping the seedlings grow by pulling them up.
However, there weren’t many of these cultivators of the Fu generation. Moreover, with Chen Daoxuan constantly watching over them and guiding their state of mind, there weren’t any problems in this aspect for the time being.
More importantly, with the ability to impart knowledge, the highest level of swordsmanship among the cultivators of the Fu generation, like Chen Fusheng, had already touched the threshold of sword intent.
Now, he was comprehending the Dao patterns of various spells and wanted to fuse them with the sword.
Once he succeeded, he would become the second Qi Condensation cultivator in the Chen family to comprehend sword essence, and he would be much younger than Chen Daoxuan.
Although the other cultivators of the Fu generation hadn’t received the teachings for as long as Chen Fusheng, they had all cultivated one or more first-order sword techniques to the Perfection Realm.
His strength far exceeded that of a Qi Condensation cultivator of the same level.
In addition, each of them was equipped with the best first-tier superior-grade flying sword, natal spiritual armor, and the White Lotus of Fate unique to the Chen family.
As for talismans and other external items, they were not lacking either.
Therefore, in terms of true strength, the oldest among them was only nine years old, and the youngest was only five years old.
They were much stronger than the 100 enemy cultivators from the Yun Nation.
However, they were still far from being experienced in fighting enemies and more importantly, their mental state.
Except for Chen Fusheng, all the cultivators of the Fu generation present were frightened by the murderous aura of these Yun Nation cultivators. None of them dared to retaliate and stood rooted to the spot.
Chen Daoxuan stared coldly at the scene before him.
He knew that this was a trial that the cultivators of the Fu generation had to go through.
This group of people, if nothing unexpected happened in the future, would all enter the Chen family’s military headquarters, which was also the Chen family’s military department that Chen Daoxuan had envisioned.
It was the protection of the Chen Clan.
They could not be the strongest, but they could not be weak or afraid of the enemy.
Otherwise, no matter how high one’s cultivation was, no matter how strong one’s strength was, if one couldn’t unleash it or was afraid of the enemy, they would still be trash, just like the Ye Family’s ancestor, Ye Wudao.
“Kill!”
Chen Fusheng’s tender voice broke the silence.
A flying sword glowing with green light burst out with a nine-foot-long sword light and shot toward the enemy.
Chen Fusheng’s flying sword tore a hole in the Yun Nation cultivators ‘sword formation and charged toward the enemy.
However, even though Chen Fusheng was strong, the sword formation was formed by a hundred cultivators. The moment the sword light tore a hole, it was blocked by the flying swords that followed.
Chen Fusheng’s flying sword sank into a quagmire.
Even though Chen Fusheng was much stronger than his opponent, he still found it difficult to deal with a hundred cultivators of the same cultivation base who were proficient in sword formations.
How could they fight?
At this moment, the other cultivators of the Fu generation finally came to their senses.
They all took out their flying swords and attacked the cultivators from the Yun Nation.
There were more than 50 cultivators of the Fu generation, and their sword techniques were far superior to those of cultivators of the same level. The power of their flying swords was at least twice as strong as that of cultivators of the same level.
With the addition of these 50 flying swords, the sword formation of the 100 Yun Nation cultivators was instantly torn to pieces.
Next.
it was a one-sided massacre.
In less than half a cup of tea’s time.
As the last Yun Nation cultivator was killed on the spot by a cultivator of the Fu generation, everyone left the illusion together.
Hu hu hu!
“Hahaha, we won, we won!”
“Their auras aren’t as strong as they appear to be. The power of their flying swords is so weak!”
“Yes, I was scared to death at first!”
This group of cultivators of the Fu generation were all secretly delighted. Little did they know that Chen Daoxuan’s face had already turned ashen.
“Phew!”
He heaved a long sigh of relief and forced back the curses he was about to say.
He thought about it carefully.
This was the first time a cultivator of the Fu generation had participated in a battle. Wasn’t it normal for him to have such a reaction?
He recalled the first time he participated in a battle. It was when he cooperated with a group of rogue cultivators to kill a stage one blood-spotted sea snake. At that time, wasn’t his heart beating like a drum?
Thinking of this…
Chen Daoxuan gradually calmed down..
