“You’re here!”

As Chen Fei just stepped across the threshold of the treasure hall, Jiang Chengji’s voice rang out from a distance.

“Senior,” Chen Fei said, cupping his hands in greeting.

“You’re quite impressive!”

Jiang Chengji said with a gentle smile as he looked at Chen Fei.

Whatever happened in the Qiankun Mansion, if Jiang Chengji was willing, it was almost impossible for him not to know about it. Moreover, Chen Fei’s battle against the odds had caused quite a stir throughout the Qiankun Mansion.

If Jiang Chengji had previously made an appearance because he saw potential in Chen Fei and considered him a talent worth cultivating, now it was clear that Chen Fei was destined to become one of the top combatants of the human race.

Jiang Chengji’s attitude towards such a prodigy had changed slightly.

“Senior, you flatter me,” Chen Fei said humbly.

“What would you like to exchange for this time?” Jiang Chengji asked with a faint smile.

For such a prodigy, the best support one could offer was straightforward.

There was no need for favoritism; under the current rules of Qiankun Mansion, the higher the talent, the more resources one naturally received.

As long as one attended classes, they earned merit points, which was the greatest fairness Qiankun Mansion could provide. Everything beyond that was a fair competitive opportunity for all.

The stronger you are, the more you get!

“I would like to exchange for more inheritances,” Chen Fei said after thinking for a moment.

The Desolate Thunder Night Star Sword was already extremely powerful, slightly surpassing the original three inheritances.

But Chen Fei wanted even stronger techniques!

With his panel and the ability to learn any technique, as long as it existed, he desired the strongest one available.

Currently, Chen Fei had nearly 8,500 merit points. Even if he were to exchange for the remaining five Emperor Legacies from before, he would have more than enough.

The inheritance of human Emperor’s techniques was something that could only be exchanged for in Qiankun Mansion.

Outside of Qiankun Mansion, obtaining even one Emperor’s inheritance was a rare blessing, let alone multiple ones.

“Still seeking more inheritances?” Jiang Chengji’s brow furrowed slightly.

Chen Fei’s previous exchange for three Emperor Legacies was already quite substantial, but it was still within acceptable limits.

After all, to forge his own path, one must understand how the old paths were walked to discern what is needed.

However, even for creating a new path, three Emperor Legacies were already more than enough. Anything beyond that would truly be a waste.

Jiang Chengji knew Chen Fei had a lot of merit points, but even so, wasting them would not be ideal.

Powerful individuals could obtain more resources in Qiankun Mansion, but many opportunities to earn merit points were actually only available once.

For instance, if you succeeded in a higher-level challenge in the early stages of the Sun Moon Realm, you were rewarded with merit points. If you succeeded in the mid-stages of the Sun Moon Realm, Qiankun Mansion would no longer provide additional merit points for the same challenge.

“I learn techniques quite quickly, and I feel that the current inheritances still lack something,” Chen Fei said.

A shadow appeared behind Chen Fei—it was the Eternal Night Manifestation.

“Buzz!”

Lightning bolts burst from the spatial rifts around the Eternal Night Manifestation, enveloping its body.

Chen Fei merely demonstrated the Desolate Thunder Night Star Sword briefly, but Jiang Chengji, at the late stage of the Sixth Stage Rule Integration Realm, was only one step away from fully mastering the rules and stepping into the Emperor’s realm.

Although Chen Fei’s demonstration was brief, Jiang Chengji was still able to discern the exceptional nature of this technique.

By refining the previous three inheritances, Chen Fei had truly created something unique.

Exceptional talent!

Jiang Chengji seemed to see a reflection of Dao Yuefeng in Chen Fei.

Dao Yuefeng, back in the day, was merely an average talent before reaching the Sun Moon Realm.

However, once he broke through to the Sun Moon Realm, his speed of understanding divine powers was tenfold, even dozens of times faster than others.

Upon reaching the Rule Integration Realm, his growth became unstoppable. Instead of slowing down, his advancement accelerated rapidly compared to his time in the Sun Moon Realm.

Eventually, after reaching the peak of the Rule Integration Realm, he paused for a few decades and then stepped into the Emperor’s realm.

Jiang Chengji was the greatest achievement of the previous Qiankun Mansion era.

At that time, Dao Yuefeng had also combined and deconstructed various Emperor’s techniques, dismantling no fewer than ten Emperor’s techniques to create his own inheritance.

Only what one creates oneself is truly the most suitable.

This principle is evident in many powerful individuals.

Jiang Chengji waved his hand, and their figures appeared in front of the previous bookshelf.

“Before you choose your inheritance, there are a few things I need to discuss with you.”

Jiang Chengji did not immediately take out the jade slips but looked at Chen Fei with a serious expression.

“Please speak, Senior!” Chen Fei’s expression also grew solemn.

“What do you think the Rule Integration Realm is?” Jiang Chengji asked in a deep voice.

This was actually knowledge that those at the peak of the Sun Moon Realm in the Qiankun Mansion needed to learn. For others at the Sun Moon Realm, early exposure to this knowledge was not harmful but not particularly necessary either.

But Chen Fei was different. With such talent, Jiang Chengji naturally did not believe that the barrier between the Sun Moon Realm and the Rule Integration Realm could stop him.

And now that Chen Fei wanted to exchange for more Emperor Legacies, it was essential to discuss some martial arts mysteries in advance so that Chen Fei would be well-prepared.

“Contacting the rules, refining the rules, and mastering the rules!” Chen Fei said after some thought.

In the various stages of the Sun Moon Realm, one is already in contact with the rules because divine powers are essentially manifestations of fragmented rules.

When reaching the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, with essence, energy, and spirit reaching the critical point, one can clearly perceive the existence of the rules.

At this point, there is no need to use divine powers as a medium to understand the rules; instead, one can directly sense the rules.

If one’s ability is sufficient, and the perceived rule fragments can be refined and the source space within can accommodate them, then one officially breaks through to the Rule Integration Realm.

After that, the cultivation in the Rule Integration Realm involves continuously completing the fragments of the rules. When these fragments form a complete rule, that is the peak of the Sixth Realm, and the Emperor’s realm.

“You’re correct. Have you considered what kind of rules you want to refine and master?” Jiang Chengji nodded slightly, his eyes fixed on Chen Fei.

What kind of rules?

Hearing Jiang Chengji’s words, Chen Fei furrowed his brows slightly. He had not given serious thought to this matter.

After all, Chen Fei felt that he was still some distance from the peak of the Sun Moon Realm, and there was no need to rush into this now.

Moreover, Chen Fei did not have a clear concept of which rules he could control.

Before coming to the Qiankun Mansion, Chen Fei had only received a few ordinary Sun Moon Realm techniques.

There had only been brief mentions of what lay beyond the Sun Moon Realm in these techniques, with no detailed explanation.

Upon arriving at Qiankun Mansion, the Rule Integration Realm teachers would occasionally discuss matters related to the Rule Integration Realm during their lessons, which gradually gave Chen Fei some understanding and insight.

Chen Fei thought about all the techniques he had learned since he began his martial path.

The technique that had been most beneficial to him was undoubtedly the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, which played a significant role.

“Senior, are there any rules related to strength?” Chen Fei asked, looking up.

“There are, but such a rule is too broad. It requires refining multiple secondary rules before it can ultimately become the rule of strength,” Jiang Chengji said with a smile, shaking his head.

“However, if you’re only asking about the rule of physical strength, that is indeed available. The Desolate Soul Emperor, for instance, ultimately mastered the rule of physical strength.”

Multiple secondary rules?

Chen Fei’s expression shifted. It turned out that even after refining rule fragments, complete rules still had distinctions.

“Can only one rule be mastered in the Rule Integration Realm?” Chen Fei asked with curiosity.

Normally, no one had discussed this with Chen Fei, and Jiang Chengji’s sudden mention piqued his interest.

“No, you can master multiple rules or refine your secondary rules into higher rules,” Jiang Chengji said softly.

Chen Fei’s gaze flickered. This meant that even among Emperors, there could be significant differences in strength.

After all, mastering one rule versus two rules was a different concept. Similarly, secondary rules versus primary rules were entirely different concepts.

“What about the Open Heaven realm?” Chen Fei asked tentatively.

“That I don’t know. I haven’t even reached the Emperor’s realm,” Jiang Chengji said with a laugh at Chen Fei’s question.

This kid had high aspirations, even asking about the Open Heaven realm.

But high aspirations are good. Without them, one wouldn’t be able to break through to higher realms.

“Senior, why did you mention the Rule Integration Realm to me?” Chen Fei asked with a smile.

“Your talent is exceptional. While others can temporarily ignore the matter of rule fragments, you should consider it, especially since you’re about to choose new inheritances,” Jiang Chengji said seriously.

Chen Fei nodded slightly, thinking for a moment before looking up at Jiang Chengji and saying, “I am inclined towards the rule of physical strength.”

The complete rule of strength was too vast, and Chen Fei did not intend to aim too high.

He preferred to take things step by step.

If he were to fully grasp the complete rule of strength, he could consider it when he reached the Emperor’s realm or the late stages of the Rule Integration Realm.

“Last time, I recommended eight inheritances to you, of which you exchanged for three. The Desolate Soul Emperor achieved the rule of physical strength, but since you have already exchanged for the Desolate Soul Sutra, you might consider focusing on these three if you wish to continue with your exchanges.”

Jiang Chengji said as three new jade slips appeared in his hand.

Chen Fei took the jade slips and probed them with his spiritual sense, finding that they aligned with his vague thoughts before coming here.

Given the conditions, Chen Fei was genuinely considering exchanging for all five remaining inheritances, but doing so would leave him with fewer than a thousand merit points.

If he only exchanged for the three, he would still have nearly four thousand merit points, which could rapidly enhance his cultivation level.

Techniques were very important, but refining six Emperor Legacies would provide an unparalleled foundation. Chen Fei did not completely abandon the other Emperor Legacies but rather planned to wait for the right time to exchange for them.

“Senior, I want to exchange for all three of these inheritance techniques,” Chen Fei said to Jiang Chengji with determination.

Jiang Chengji’s brow furrowed slightly as the three inheritance stones appeared in his hand.
