It was an absolutely bold move—Chen Fei had not expected that Pan Qingwu and Nie Shengyun would be willing to commit such a large number of merit points.

This amount was equivalent to what was needed for an Emperor Legacy, and the two were likely aware of this.

In terms of attitude, Pan Qingwu and Nie Shengyun were impeccable, especially Pan Qingwu. As a disciple of Emperor Dao Yuefeng, few could sway him.

However, with Chen Fei’s talent recognized by the higher-ups of the human race, the available solutions were limited.

Ultimately, Pan Qingwu and Nie Shengyun chose a slightly more costly but safer approach.

Fifteen hundred merit points was a substantial sum, but the two gritted their teeth and managed to gather it. Of course, this came at a heavy cost, impacting their cultivation significantly.

But given the options, this method was undoubtedly the best.

Since they had already conceded, Pan Qingwu decided to follow through and release most of the imprisoned disciples of the Stellar Sect, including Zhan Xuming.

With the final use of secret techniques, the information tracked by Sky Sea City suggested that they had likely been sent to other races in a very distant location.

Continuing to imprison the Stellar Sect members no longer served much purpose.

Pan Qingwu chose to repay Zhan Xuming’s favor to Chen Fei in this manner.

Chen Fei looked at the retreating figures of Pan Qingwu and Nie Shengyun, his gaze slightly fluctuating.

This was the benefit of showcasing talent within the Qiankun Mansion.

But Chen Fei knew this was due to the special circumstances, and he understood this well.

What Chen Fei needed more was to truly elevate his own strength, as that was the lasting deterrence that belonged solely to him.

Chen Fei took the jade token with fifteen hundred merit points and returned to Hua Zhichun’s courtyard.

Hua Zhichun looked at him in confusion, not understanding Chen Fei’s purpose.

“I’ve just gathered a batch of merit points and came to place another bet.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Chen Fei approached the betting table and found that the odds had changed.

Betting on a loss remained the same, with ten to seven odds.

However, betting on a win had seen an increase. The odds had shifted from ten to eight to one to one.

Clearly, after two days of betting, the house had adjusted the odds based on the merit points bet on each side, ensuring that they would not lose money regardless of the outcome.

Additionally, Hua Zhichun and his team might have received other information that made them more optimistic about Chang Jiyun, thus raising the odds for Chen Fei’s win.

Regardless of the reason, this was advantageous for Chen Fei, as he was betting on his own win.

With the odds increasing by twenty percent, there was no hesitation.

The only downside was that the previous bets could not be redeemed and had to be placed at the old odds.

Hua Zhichun took the jade token Chen Fei handed over and, seeing that it contained fifteen hundred merit points, looked at Chen Fei in surprise.

While others gambled for fun, Chen Fei always bet his entire fortune, and this time he had somehow obtained fifteen hundred merit points.

“Betting everything?” Hua Zhichun confirmed.

“Everything!” Chen Fei nodded.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

If Chen Fei won this round, he would gain a large number of merit points, giving him many options for buying spiritual materials or further exchanging for the Emperor Legacy.

“Alright!”

Hua Zhichun nodded and transferred the fifteen hundred merit points from the jade token.

Chen Fei smiled slightly, cupped his hands in thanks to Hua Zhichun, and then left the courtyard.

In the future, such betting opportunities might become fewer, because once Chen Fei consistently wins, many people will choose to bet on him, thereby betting on Chen Fei’s win.

At that point, with no profit to be made for the house, the betting options will naturally disappear.

Therefore, while such opportunities existed, it was best to bet as much as possible.

If Hua Zhichun dared to lend Chen Fei a few thousand merit points, Chen Fei would be willing to bet them all.

Upon returning to his courtyard, Chen Fei suddenly sensed a slight tremor in the vitality of the heavens and earth.

Chen Fei’s heart stirred as he swiftly moved to the adjacent courtyard, finding everyone standing by while the Sect Leader, Qu Qingsheng, was seated cross-legged with his eyes closed, surrounded by a flow of heavenly and earthly vitality.

Mountain Sea Realm!

Previously, during his escape to the Middle Continent, Qu Qingsheng advanced from the Aperture Tempering realm to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm due to the ordeal with the Monster King.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Now, after so many years and a recent enlightenment at Qiankun Mansion, Qu Qingsheng had finally broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm!

This realm had been unimaginable for the former Qu Qingsheng.

But today, it had been achieved!

Not only had Qu Qingsheng’s cultivation advanced significantly, but his senior brothers, Guo Linshan and others, who had just recently advanced to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, were now also at the mid-stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

The cultivation environment at Qiankun Mansion was more precious to the Primordial Sword Sect members than any heavenly materials or earthly treasures.

Not only was the concentration of the vitality of the heavens and earth higher, but the spiritual inspiration here allowed them to grasp their techniques at an astonishing rate.

“Junior Brother!”

Seeing Chen Fei’s arrival, senior brothers Guo Linshan and Zhang Fangqiong walked over with smiles on their faces.

“Master, Senior Brother, Senior Sister.”

Chen Fei gave a salute to Feng Xiupu and then greeted Guo Linshan and Zhang Fangqiong.

Despite the vast difference in their realms now, they remained the closest people to Chen Fei.

They had guided him in his training in the past and provided selfless help whenever he needed it.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Over the years, Chen Fei had never forgotten their support!

The day quickly passed, and before the hour of Chen’s arrival, the area around the martial arts arena was already filled with figures at the Sun Moon Realm.

As time went on, the number of spectators continued to increase.

Last time, when Chen Fei challenged twelve opponents at once, most of the Sun Moon Realm practitioners had merely watched for entertainment and didn’t believe Chen Fei could succeed.

However, this time, the situation was somewhat different.

Many people, or rather more than half of the Sun Moon Realm practitioners, were still skeptical of Chen Fei’s current challenge.

They didn’t doubt his talent but felt he was rushing too much and could afford to wait.

A small portion of people, however, hoped Chen Fei would win.

They didn’t believe his combat strength had reached that level but felt that their bets on Chen Fei gave him a psychological edge, making them believe he still had a chance.

Just as last time, when everyone had doubts but Chen Fei succeeded thoroughly.

This time, the small group was also uncertain about Chen Fei’s ability to defeat Chang Jiyun, with doubts outweighing their confidence.

In the Qiankun Mansion, there were indeed very few who believed Chen Fei could definitely defeat Chang Jiyun.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

After all, such challenges were incredibly difficult, and while Chen Fei was progressing, others were not standing still.

Moreover, those familiar with Chang Jiyun’s abilities knew that his strength was not just reflected by his ranking.

As the hour approached, Chen Fei’s figure appeared at the edge of the martial arts arena first.

This time, there was no sudden breakthrough in his techniques, so Chen Fei didn’t have to rush like last time.

Soon after Chen Fei’s arrival, Chang Jiyun’s figure also appeared at the edge of the arena.

Chang Jiyun looked at Chen Fei, snorted coldly, and his figure flashed to the center of the arena.

“Since we’re already here, there’s no need to wait until the hour. Let’s begin now!”

Chang Jiyun looked down at Chen Fei and spoke in a deep voice.

“Of course.”

Chen Fei replied, stepping forward to the center of the arena.

“Please!” Chen Fei cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.

“Please!”

Chang Jiyun returned the gesture, and suddenly, a sharp blade light appeared above Chen Fei, descending from the sky.

Despite Chang Jiyun being several miles away, the blade light seemed to extend from thin air.

Chen Fei looked up, and the world seemed to slow down. He saw that the blade light was coming from a miniature figure of Chang Jiyun hovering in the air.

Chen Fei’s eyes darted around, and he saw no less than a hundred miniature versions of Chang Jiyun in the surrounding space, each one emitting blade lights towards him.

While the power of a single blade light was ordinary, the combined force of over a hundred of them was formidable.

Most practitioners at the early Sun Moon Realm would be unable to withstand such an attack.

Even someone like Shen Yongding, the top of the branch academy, would be seriously injured by this move.

This was the difference between the mid and early Sun Moon Realm—a significant disparity.

Chen Fei raised one hand, and a shadow appeared behind him, also raising a hand to the sky.

“Boom!”

The hundred-plus blade lights collided with the shadow, and the vitality of the heavens and earth surged violently.

The blade lights, which could heavily injure or even kill early Sun Moon Realm practitioners, now failed to affect the shadow behind Chen Fei.

The shadow rapidly ascended to several miles high, then stabilized, looking down at Chang Jiyun from above.

Eternal Night King!

Although Chen Fei’s mastery of the Desolate Thunder Night Star Sword was only halfway, manifesting the Eternal Night King posed no problem at all.

The power of the Eternal Night King was far greater than that of the previous Dust Giant Body.

Therefore, despite the hundred-plus blade lights, they still couldn’t breach the barrier of the Eternal Night King.

“Eternal Night Chant?”

The spectators at the arena, all Sun Moon Realm practitioners, watched in amazement at the Eternal Night King behind Chen Fei.

Just a month ago, it was still the Dust Giant Body, but in that short time, Chen Fei’s manifestation had undergone a dramatic transformation.

Many who had visited the Qiankun Mansion’s treasury recognized the new manifestation immediately.

Lu Shuzhang watched the Eternal Night King behind Chen Fei and blinked instinctively.

Since his defeat to Chen Fei, Lu Shuzhang’s goal had been to beat Chen Fei and reclaim his lost honor.

Last month, when Chen Fei won twelve consecutive matches, Lu Shuzhang was present.

The impact of that event had been quite significant for Lu Shuzhang.

Despite feeling that he was making continuous progress, Chen Fei seemed to be advancing even faster.

After a few days of dejection, Lu Shuzhang had regained his composure.

He believed in his own talent and was confident that he would eventually catch up to Chen Fei and surpass him, as he was a descendant of an Emperor.

But today, at this moment, Lu Shuzhang looked at the Eternal Night King behind Chen Fei and felt completely disheartened.

It wasn’t about Chen Fei mastering the Eternal Night Chant.

Lu Shuzhang could accept that the Qiankun Mansion had the legacy of the Sky Resonance Court.

What was truly unacceptable was that Chen Fei had only recently acquired the Eternal Night Chant, yet the manifestation he displayed was even better than his own!

How could this be?

Could it be that Chen Fei understands the Eternal Night Chant even better than him, the direct descendant of the Sky Resonance Court?

Lu Shuzhang’s mind became a whirlwind of confusion.

On the martial arts arena, Chang Jiyun saw the Eternal Night Manifestation behind Chen Fei and frowned slightly.

Others could recognize the Eternal Night Chant, and Chang Jiyun was no exception. He had considered exchanging for it after seeing it, but had delayed due to insufficient performance points.

“Bean Soldiers? What a remarkable technique!”

Chen Fei lowered his hand and observed the hundreds of miniature Chang Jiyuns converging ahead.

These miniature figures were not clones but possessed many of the attributes of clones. Combined with the main body’s power, they could unleash extremely strong force.

“Merge!”

Chang Jiyun commanded in a low voice, and the hundreds of miniature soldiers behind him were summoned. In the next moment, the hundreds of blade lights were forcibly fused into one, cascading down like a hanging river from the sky, aimed at Chen Fei.

In Chen Fei’s view, everything around him vanished, leaving only a blinding light that grew larger and filled his entire field of vision.
