Cultivation starts from simplifying the exercises

Chapter 1950 The Annihilation of All Streams (4K)

Deep within the void of the Guixu Realm, the radiance of the Time Pavilion flowed silently like a frozen galaxy.

Chen Fei sat cross-legged, his aura harmonious and restrained, as if he had merged with the entire void.

Having successively forged six dominant-level characteristics and cultivated them to the Great Perfection, even with Chen Fei's current peak early-stage dominant-level spiritual strength, he felt a deep fatigue originating from the source of his life.

It wasn't the depletion of Yuan energy, nor was it physical exhaustion. Rather, it was a kind of mental weariness that arose after one's own Great Dao, divine will, and even one's understanding of the laws of heaven and earth had been repeatedly tempered, shattered, and reforged countless times.

The smelting characteristic is not simply an addition of power, but a process of sorting out, reconstructing, and sublimating one's own power system time and time again.

Every choice is related to the future path, and every integration is accompanied by intense collisions and reshaping at the level of laws. Even if the process is smooth and takes very little time, the effort required is unimaginable.

For other Sovereign Realm cultivators, forging new characteristics would take thousands or even tens of thousands of years, but Chen Fei only took a few days.

"call"

Chen Fei slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. Instead of immediately continuing to refine the next characteristic, he slowly closed his eyes and calmed his mind completely.

No longer deducing cultivation methods, no longer comprehending the Great Dao, all thoughts are emptied, simply resting, emptying the mind, and recovering.

Time passed quietly, one day, two days, three days. When Chen Fei opened his eyes again, there was no trace of fatigue in them, only a clear and deep calm.

His energy and spirit have been restored to their peak condition.

"continue."

Chen Fei's gaze sharpened, and his consciousness once again sank into the depths of his soul, looking at the two powerful sources of power waiting to be forged: the Origin Devourer and the Abyss of Annihilation.

Origin Devouring: Absorbs a portion of the opponent's attack power and converts it into one's own vital energy.

Abyss of Annihilation: Relying on the Primal Sea, forcibly balancing the power within the body.

Thoughts initiate the practice.

The mark representing the devouring of the origin and the gray-black power of the Abyss of Annihilation slowly approached each other, and the next moment, the two collided fiercely.

The illusory image of the River of Time reappeared, and three orbs of light emanating distinct auras leaped out of the water, instantly flooding the sea of ​​consciousness with information.

[All streams have ceased to flow]

It perfectly combines the characteristics of both, and can absorb part of the power of the opponent's attack. Using this power as a guide, it can forcibly balance and stabilize its internal state, including the temporary imbalance caused by the burst of power.

The stronger the defense, the better the damage reduction and balance effects. Balanced and peaceful. Solid foundation.

All laws belong to me.

It focuses on plunder and simulation. After successfully devouring and balancing a certain alien power, the body will permanently record its "power blueprint" and can simulate similar effects to fight enemies.

There are many methods. The variations are endless.

[Disruption of equilibrium]

A trace of the power of the law of balance is mixed into the energy of the devoured creature and quietly injected into the enemy's body, disrupting its energy flow and causing it to become unbalanced.

Chen Fei's gaze swept over the three options, and without any hesitation, he directly chose the Myriad Streams of Annihilation.

This feature isn't particularly innovative; it simply combines the damage reduction and energy absorption of "Origin Devouring" with the forced balance of "Abyss of Annihilation."

But this is precisely what Chen Fei needs and values ​​most.

This means that when Chen Fei unleashes 30% of his combat power with [Reverse Tide] and uses [Time Cycle] to pre-draw future power, the inevitable internal energy shocks and temporary imbalances that occur will be effectively buffered and calmed.

This will greatly reduce the burden and backlash caused by high-intensity bursts.

Moreover, the stronger the defense, the better the effect.

This perfectly aligns with Chen Fei's path of continuously improving his physique and pursuing ultimate defense, complementing each other.

As for [All Laws Return to Me] and [Balance Collapse], they may be useful in certain specific situations, but compared to actual damage reduction and status stability, they are ultimately inferior.

The true path to power lies in having power in one's own hands and building an unshakeable foundation.

Cultivation...

A flood of insights emerged and were quickly absorbed.

Soon, Wanliu Silent Extinction reached the Great Perfection of his cultivation.

A new balancing mark appeared in his soul, radiating a dark and profound aura that seemed capable of devouring all currents and suppressing all turmoil.

……

The remnants of time and the journey through the long river begin to merge.

Remnants of Time: Gazing up at the long river of time, capture traces of the void from the reflection of time, and summon the phantoms of historical powerhouses to aid in battle.

Long River Journey: This ability applies power to the battlefield environment itself, briefly dragging reality into the river of time, projecting and recreating scenes from famous historical battles, such as ancient battlefields or places where gods have fallen. The scenes themselves contain fragments of historical laws that may suppress or inflict additional damage on enemies with specific attributes.

Historical shadows and timeless scenes intertwine and collide, as if two different ancient eras are forcibly overlapping and merging.

The illusory image of the river of time arrived as scheduled, and three orbs of light appeared.

Chen Fei's consciousness swept across the area and instantly locked onto the ball of light inside, which seemed to contain countless historical scenes that were gradually becoming real, creating an illusion of time and space overlapping.

【Time and Space Overlap】

To temporarily "realize" historical projections, making them infinitely close to reality.

His past self was an important part of Chen Fei's combat system, and he would never give up this ability.

Instead of weakening the past self, [Time and Space Overlap] actually strengthened it to a completely new position.

Because the past bodies that Chen Fei summoned in the past seemed similar, but their combat power was actually inferior to that of the original body. Later, with the help of the Time-Space Overlap, the combat power of the past bodies will be closer to that of Chen Fei's original body.

As for the other two options, one leans towards area suppression and the other towards single-target enhancement, they both pale in comparison to [Time-Space Overlap].

simplify……

Cultivation...

A flood of insights emerged and were quickly absorbed.

When Chen Fei cultivated the Time-Space Overlapping Shadow technique to the Great Perfection realm, he was able to clearly perceive his connection with the mysterious "past," which became closer and more real.

……

A fleeting premonition and the lingering echoes of time began to merge.

A fleeting premonition: Foreseeing what will happen within half a breath in the future during battle. Backlash: Frequent premonitions will inevitably lead to the aging of the soul, the loss of lifespan, and the five signs of decay.

Echoes of Time: Within a foreseen half-breath of the future, a phantom image of "oneself half a breath in the future" can be forcibly extracted and condensed into a physical entity called the "Echo Puppet," possessing a portion of the original's power. The puppet exists for only one breath; once the time limit is reached, it will dissipate regardless of whether it is damaged.

As the river of time manifested, three orbs of light appeared. Chen Fei's gaze instantly fell on the orb of light that seemed to contain countless shadows of the future, and time resonated with it.

[Resonance of Time]

This characteristic can forcibly detach a phantom of "the self after half a breath" and condense it into an echoing puppet with the power of the original body. It lasts for one breath, and after it dissipates, its power will be added back to the original body, increasing the original body's combat power by 10%, lasting for one breath.

The "future body" is also one of Chen Fei's core combat strengths, and [Time Resonance] not only retains the future body, but also gives it greater value, power feedback.

This means that the existence of the future body is no longer just a combat assistant for a moment, but can also bring Chen Fei an instant burst of power after it dissipates.

A 10% increase in combat power may not seem like much, but when combined with other explosive forces at crucial moments, it can be enough to secure victory and seal the deal.

This perfectly aligns with Chen Fei's philosophy of pursuing instantaneous victory and explosive power.

As for the other two options: 【A Thousand Fleeting Dreams】extends the time of foresight to a single breath, allowing for even longer foresight. 【Time Exile】exiles the enemy to a future prison.

These two characteristics are not bad, but they lose their appeal in the face of the simplicity, directness, and forcefulness of [Time Resonance].

simplify……

Cultivation...

When the Time Resonance cultivation was completed, Chen Fei vaguely felt that his connection with that vague "future" had deepened.

Past self, future self.

Both of these have not only been retained, but have also been enhanced.

……

The Chaos Furnace and the Ember Affinity began to merge.

Chaos Furnace: It devours the spiritual power and essence of its enemies, transforming them into chaotic energy to repair itself. However, excessive consumption can lead to physical deformities and collapse.

Burning Back to the Source: When the Chaos Furnace successfully devours the complete essence of an opponent, it can use the Chaos Flame as a catalyst to conduct a deeper "tracing back and burning" of the devoured essence. During this tracing back and burning process, the deepest and most core memories or causal fragments imprinted on the target essence during its lifetime will be forcibly stripped away and manifested, like pages of a book being turned, clearly presented.

As the river of time manifested, three orbs of light appeared. Chen Fei pondered for a moment, then chose the Ruins Furnace without hesitation.

[The Crucible of Ruins]

An eternal furnace is created within the body, reforging all the power it devours into primordial energy, thus restoring itself.

Once again, we witnessed the Primordial Qi, and the [Ruins Furnace] completely eliminated the distortion risk of the "Chaos Furnace" while retaining its powerful damage reduction and recovery properties.

This will allow Chen Fei's defensive and sustained combat capabilities to reach a new level.

As for the ability of [Burning Embers Tracing the Cause] to peer into the cause and effect of memories, if it is still only possible within the Xuan Yu Realm, then this ability can be called a divine skill.

But now, Chen Fei can connect to the martial arts arenas of all the heavens and myriad worlds, where there are techniques, knowledge and inheritances from countless planes, greatly expanding his channels for obtaining information.

In comparison, the role of "tracing the cause of burning out" seems somewhat limited and secondary.

Between defense and spying on memories, Chen Fei chose the former, as his own combat strength was fundamental, especially in a place like the Martial Arts Arena of the Myriad Realms.

simplify……

Cultivation...

A flood of insights emerged and were quickly absorbed.

The Ruins Furnace is complete.

Chen Fei felt as if a bottomless, eternally burning furnace had truly appeared inside his body.

Any external attack energy will be weakened, and then a portion of it will be drawn into it, refined and transformed into pure and boundless primordial energy, which will then nourish the body.

……

The Void Mirror Heart began to merge with all living beings.

Void Mirror Heart: Divine sense is like a mirror, capable of instantly copying an opponent's supernatural abilities, moves, and void secrets, etc. The replica version has 90% of the power of the original.

Reflecting All Beings: Using the power of the Void Mirror Mind, it perfectly replicates all external characteristics such as form, appearance, voice, breath fluctuations, energy rhythms, and even subtle behavioral habits and catchphrases. It also simulates some of the target's thought processes and behavioral logic.

As the river of time manifested, three orbs of light rose and fell, and Chen Fei pondered and made a decision.

【All Dharmas Return to their Source】

By directly observing the essence of all things and directly replicating their core "Tao," the replica achieves 95% of the power of the original.

Chen Fei abandoned the ever-changing and simulation capabilities of "Mirror Reflection of All Beings".

The reason is simple: the previous choice of "Mirroring All Beings" was to imitate the Heavenly Demon to infiltrate the enemy camp, obtain intelligence, create chaos, or even acquire resources when absolutely necessary.

Now, with the All-World Martial Arts Arena as a platform leading to unlimited resources and opportunities, Chen Fei's growth will undoubtedly accelerate significantly.

What Chen Fei needs is no longer to disguise and lie low, but to grow up faster.

【All Laws Return to Their Origin】This allows Chen Fei to see through the essence of any strange and powerful secret techniques he encounters in the martial arts arena more quickly, and even extract their essence and integrate it into himself.

Comparing the two, it is obvious which is more important.

simplify……

Cultivation...

A flood of insights emerged and were quickly absorbed.

All things return to their source, thus achieving completion.

Chen Fei felt as if his "vision" had been elevated to a new level.

……

The Void Dao Sword and the Law Rift began to merge.

Void Dao Sword: An attack can sever the causal connection between the opponent and a certain magic weapon, cultivation technique, or even a hidden treasure in the void.

The Rift of Laws: It is no longer limited to severing the cause and effect between living beings and objects and forces, but instead points its sharp edge at the fundamental laws that constitute the basis of the world's operation.

As time manifested, three orbs of light still appeared.

Chen Fei read it once, thought it over carefully, and finally chose the Law of Nothingness.

[The Law Returns to Nothingness]

The law of slashing causes it to temporarily "collapse" into nothingness.

This is a true attack at the level of laws.

The reason for choosing it is simple: it can form a perfect combination with the [Purple Extreme Divine Eye] and the [Chaos Reverse Lotus].

The Purple Extreme Divine Eye saw through the weakness, the Chaos Reverse Lotus traced the flaw, and the Law Return to Nothingness slashed it with a single sword, causing its laws to collapse and return to nothingness.

At that time, the moves the enemy uses will no longer be killing moves in front of Chen Fei, but rather cracked porcelain.

Perhaps a mere touch would be enough to cause it to crumble on its own, or even turn against it.

simplify……

Cultivation...

The laws return to nothingness, reaching the state of perfect perfection.

Within the soul, a mark radiating extreme emptiness, seemingly capable of causing all laws to wither, slowly condensed and rose and fell.

Once the [Law Returns to Nothingness] was completely stabilized, Chen Fei slowly opened his eyes, completely concealing all his aura.

But deep within those calm eyes, a purple vortex slowly rotates in the left eye, reflecting the myriad laws of cause and effect.

The chaotic lotus shadow in his right eye flickers, tracing back to past flaws.

The twenty-four Void Treasures and Extended Characteristics underwent a process of refinement, eliminating the dross and retaining the essence, ultimately transforming into supreme-level power characteristics, each with its own unique wonders and complementary strengths.

As for the remaining four Void Treasures and extended characteristics, they cannot yet be fully transformed into Dominator-level characteristics, greatly reducing their enhancement effect on Chen Fei. They will only be able to truly transform when he reaches the mid-Dominator Realm.

"All the heavens and myriad worlds..."

Chen Fei slowly raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through the Void Realm and looking towards the endless chaotic void.

A streak of light flew from the depths of the void of the Guixu Realm and floated silently in front of Chen Fei.
