“How’s your progress in the Soaring Heaven Technique cultivation?” Feng Xiupu stood beside Chen Fei and suddenly whispered.

“I’ve generally reached the perfection level,” Chen Fei looked at his master with some curiosity, wondering why Feng Xiupu brought this up out of nowhere.

“I have a question I’d like to test you on,” Feng Xiupu cleared his throat and said.

Lately, using the meditation cushion Chen Fei had given him, FengXiupu’s comprehension of the cultivation techniques had been progressing rapidly. It was akin to the foundational principles Chen Fei had instilled in him when he first began his training.

Being strong in combat wasn’t the true measure of one’s abilities; it was about being fast and enduring to live a long life.

Therefore, the inheritance specifically passed down by Feng Xiupu was the Soaring Heaven Technique, and he wanted to elevate it to its pinnacle. However, in recent days, Feng Xiupu had been troubled by several issues related to the Soaring Heaven Technique.

Originally, he had intended to ponder these issues for a few more days, but now Chen Fei was right beside him.

Advanced stage Aperture Tempering realm, every time Feng Xiupu thought about Chen Fei’s current level of cultivation, he couldn’t help but feel a peculiar sensation. It wasn’t jealousy or anything of the sort; Feng Xiupu was not capable of harboring such emotions.

If his disciple surpassed him, FengXiupu’s only feeling would be happiness. Feng Xiupu knew that with the talent Chen Fei had displayed, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed him.

What Feng Xiupu couldn’t have foreseen was that this day would come so quickly and unexpectedly, without any time for preparation. It was precisely because of this lack of preparation that the sudden news felt somewhat awkward to Feng Xiupu.

Fortunately, in recent times, Feng Xiupu had gradually come to accept it, especially after using the meditation cushion given by Chen Fei. Feng Xiupu felt that, well, it was quite satisfying for his disciple to surpass him.

So, with Chen Fei by his side today and some spare time, Feng Xiupu decided to directly ask the questions he had about his own cultivation.

Of course, on the surface, Feng Xiupu framed it as a test for Chen Fei, to see if Chen Fei had become complacent in his martial arts due to rapid progress.

“Oh, please go ahead, Master,” Chen Fei responded with a slight pause, then quickly grasped the situation. He couldn’t help but find it amusing internally, but he didn’t dare show it. Some face had to be saved for his master.

With questions and answers flowing between them, soon, everyone had gathered at the mountaintop of Half-Bottle Mountain.

The Mysterious City had already sensed something unusual. The majestic aura was trembling incessantly. However, before these auras could fully disperse, they were suppressed by the joint efforts of Tong Zhongqiu and Yu Shoucheng.

The Mysterious City was formidable. When Yu Shoucheng came from the Boundless Sea, he had to send people to scout the Mysterious City first before bringing the Yu family across.

But now, facing two Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, the city’s power was immediately suppressed.

Tong Zhongqiu and Yu Shoucheng had no intention of breaking the Mysterious City. It was too vast a city to break down quickly.

Their only goal was to force the Mysterious City to provide them with passage, allowing them to smoothly proceed to the Boundless Sea.Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update

“Boom!”

The formidable aura of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm forcefully penetrated the Mysterious City, causing the city’s chilling atmosphere to surge into the sky.

After a moment, the trembling city walls of the Mysterious City calmed down, and the city gates of the Mysterious City instantly swung wide open. A passage created entirely by the power of Tong Zhongqiu and Yu Shoucheng appeared before everyone.

“Enter!”

Tong Zhongqiu’s voice echoed from within the Mysterious City. The people from the Yu family and the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect entered first, followed closely by the disciples of the Primordial Sword Sect and the Sunken Water Pavilion.

Chen Fei leisurely walked up to a shelf, reached out, and directly took a piece of Tianhui Stone from the shelf, placing it in front of the shopkeeper.

“How much does this cost?” Chen Fei asked with a smile.

“Three thousand copper coins,” the shopkeeper replied, looking at Chen Fei. He felt like he had seen Chen Fei somewhere before, but at this moment, Chen Fei exuded no aura whatsoever.

Identifying the unusual in the Mysterious City had always been based on a person’s aura. Appearance was just a shell and held little significance.

Hearing the shopkeeper’s words, a faint smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face. The shopkeeper was still as deceptive as ever. When Chen Fei first visited this shop, the price for the same item was only two thousand copper coins.

Now, the price had significantly increased.

Chen Fei turned his head to glance at the other shelves. In the entire shop, the only genuine item was the Tianhui Stone in Chen Fei’s hand. Everything else was fake.

Chen Fei couldn’t discern this before, but with his improved cultivation, he could see through it all now.

“I’m missing one piece of Tianhui Stone, and I’ll take it,” Chen Fei turned to the shopkeeper and said with a soft smile.

Hearing that Chen Fei didn’t even bother to haggle, the shopkeeper’s friendly demeanor changed in an instant. Uncontrollable greed flashed in his eyes.

“This is the money, take it.”

Chen Fei extended his palm, as if he were holding something, and handed it to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper instinctively looked at Chen Fei’s palm, then saw Chen Fei slowly open his hand.

A radiance seemed to burst forth in the shopkeeper’s eyes as he realized that the brilliance came from the copper coins, which were too dazzling.

“Alright, alright!” The shopkeeper received the copper coins with a smile. He was about to speak when he noticed that Chen Fei had already turned and left.

The shopkeeper watched Chen Fei’s departing figure, his expression turning cold. The Tianhui Stone was indeed genuine. Should he forcibly detain Chen Fei? However, the other party had already paid three thousand copper coins, and it might not be allowed by the Mysterious City’s rules to forcibly detain him.

*Buzz!*

The entire shop suddenly vibrated. Chen Fei had left the shop, and the shopkeeper was caressing the copper coins in his hand. He suddenly felt that something was amiss with their texture.

The shopkeeper lowered his head in confusion, looking at the copper coins in his hand. The aura was correct, but for some reason, the more he looked at these copper coins, the stranger they seemed. A faint sense of alienation slowly crept over the coins.

The shopkeeper fumbled with the other copper coins, and gradually, they began to distort in his eyes, appearing dreamlike and surreal, a feeling of unreality suddenly welling up in his heart.

The next moment, the three thousand copper coins disappeared from the shopkeeper’s hands.

The shopkeeper was stunned, staring blankly at his own hands.

“Roar!”

A loud roar suddenly erupted from the shopkeeper’s mouth, and his friendly demeanor had long turned into a ferocious one.

Outside on the street, Chen Fei’s clone had already returned to the main body. Chen Fei shook the Tianhui Stone in his hand, a smile playing on his face.

Back when he was in the Mysterious City, he had almost been scammed by the shopkeeper of this store. Just a few glances at the items, and they demanded payment. If his clone hadn’t been in the shop at the time, Chen Fei would have had quite a hard time getting out of there.

Today, upon returning to the Mysterious City, Chen Fei decided to use the Dream Entry Technique to draw the shopkeeper into a dream.

Back then, the shopkeeper had heard the sound of so many copper coins. Chen Fei had indeed paid, and now he had simply taken back the stored goods..
