Chapter 112: Suppressing Dragon Elephant

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Fei spent 2000 taels of silver to simplify the Thorn Sword and turn it into the Starry Night Sword. Then, he immediately became excited. This was destined to be an all-nighter.

The next morning, Chen Fei arrived at the inn with hot spring service.

“Sir, this is our hot spring. It can relieve fatigue and refresh your mind.” The inn staff brought Chen Fei to a small courtyard and introduced him enthusiastically.

Chen Fei poked his head out to take a look and shook his head, saying, “Is there a hot spring pool that surges out? This is not enough for me.”

“Yes, this way, please.”

The waiter nodded and turned around to lead Chen Fei to the sky-class room. Chen Fei took a glance and saw that the cost here was obviously much higher.

“Sir, is this okay?” The waiter pointed at the hot spring pool in front of him and asked with a smile.

“Okay, I’ll reserve it for the day. I’ll try.”

Chen Fei looked at the surging hot spring pool and nodded. He paid a sum of silver and waved the waiter away.

After taking off his clothes, Chen Fei walked into the hot spring and immersed his entire head in the hot spring.

Dragon-taming Elephant experience points +1.

In just a moment, an epiphany suddenly appeared in Chen Fei’s mind. Chen Fei could not help but smile.

This hot spring really met the requirements. There was no need for Chen Fei to boil him. Of course, if there was really no other way, Chen Fei would probably grit his teeth and cook himself.

The Suppressing Dragon Elephant, which was like a heavenly book to Chen Fei, had finally been unveiled.

“It’s actually just a part of a set of martial arts.”

Chen Fei was very surprised. After all, he had spent a total of 50,000 taels of silver. Even the cost of so many simplified cultivation techniques combined was not as high as this.

In the end, he told Chen Fei that it was only a part of the cultivation technique?

If Chen Fei obtained the entire cultivation technique, how much would it cost to simplify it?

Chen Fei quietly soaked in the hot spring water. The experience points of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant were constantly increasing. Various cultivation methods related to the Suppressing Dragon Elephant were constantly circulating in Chen Fei’s mind.

The complete version of Suppressing Dragon Elephant was divided into three stages: Body Subduing, Spirit Subduing, and Soul Subduing.

What Chen Fei obtained was the part that suppressed his body. As the experience points increased, Chen Fei’s body began to tighten, and the force in his body was crazily absorbed by all parts of his body.

Phew!

Chen Fei immediately rushed out of the hot spring. In just a moment, Chen Fei’s face was somewhat pale. It wasn’t because he was soaked in water but because his inner strength and even his blood essence had been absorbed.

“As expected, one can only cultivate this at the Aperture Tempering realm. If one cultivates this at the body Tempering realm, they might be sucked dry before they can cultivate much.”

Chen Fei panted a few times, feeling the tingling sensation coming from his body.

The effect seemed to be quite obvious, but it made Chen Fei hesitate whether he should continue cultivating.

Although Chen Fei wasn’t at the Aperture Tempering realm, he could already absorb Vital Energy due to the Receival Bead. After killing Shen Dingyan, he had two Receival Beads now.

However, Chen Fei intended to save this Vital Energy for his inner strength. If he gave it to the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, Chen Fei’s cultivation would definitely be affected.

Chen Fei had always felt that the martial realm was the most fundamental thing. Due to the influence of his realm, Chen Fei’s movement and sword techniques were restricted because his body’s hardware could not keep up.

If he could break through to the Marrow Tempering realm or the Visceral Tempering realm… Even with his current movement technique and sword technique, Chen Fei’s strength would soar by a large margin.

If they were both in the Marrow Tempering realm, Chen Fei’s speed would definitely be faster than Shen Dingyan’s, and he would have been able to shake Shen Dingyan off long ago. Even if they fought, they would not be so passive. With the power of the Starry Night Sword, he might not be able to win for sure, but at least he would not lose.

“Cultivation Technique: Suppressing Dragon Elephant Beginner (3/500)”

Chen Fei glanced at the interface. It was no longer suitable for him to cultivate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant today. Unless he used Vital Energy, Chen Fei’s body would definitely collapse.

What troubled Chen Fei now was that even if he used Vital Energy in these ten days, he would not be able to break through to the Marrow Tempering realm. However, if he used his Vital Energy to cultivate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, he could probably break through to Mastery.

With this calculation, it seemed that cultivating the Suppressing Dragon Elephant would give him more skills.

Body Tempering had always been considered hard labor. It wasn’t that it wasn’t good, but that it required a lot of effort to see results.

Thus, when Chen Fei was choosing a cultivation technique, he had never chosen a body-tempering cultivation technique. He really did not have enough time and energy. Moreover, if the level of the body-tempering technique was not high enough, it would not be enough to withstand a single stab from the other party.

Chen Fei pondered for a long time and decided to cultivate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant. The main reason was that the possibility of finding such a hot spring in the Strange Wind Realm was extremely low.

Since that was the case, it was better to let him have more life-saving methods. This was because he would have to face danger from the first day after going to the Strange Wind Realm.

After making up his mind, Chen Fei activated the small formation of this heavenly guest room.

That’s right, this inn’s heavenly room was actually planned with a simple array. It did not have any defensive function, but it could prevent others from prying. If someone was spying on them, they would even sound an alarm.

After confirming that there was nothing strange in the surroundings, Chen Fei activated the Recieval Bead and the jade pendant at the same time. The next moment, a surge of Vital Energy was pulled into Chen Fei’s body, causing ripples to appear on the surrounding water surface.

Stopping the automatic circulation of the Origin Connection Technique in his body, Chen Fei soaked his head in the hot spring.

The Vital Energy rampaged through Chen Fei’s body, but immediately, a pulling force came from all over Chen Fei’s body, melting all the Vital Energy into his flesh and blood.

Just like the five states of body tempering, the body tempering stage of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant also started from the flesh and finally went deep into the internal organs.

In less than fifteen minutes, Chen Fei stuck his head out and felt the faint changes in his body. Chen Fei was deep in thought.

After exchanging the exhausted Recieval Bead, Chen Fei felt that he still had some mental strength left. He could still use it about half a time.

Without any delay, the Recieval Bead’s light circle flashed and shattered. The Vital Energy that was slightly smaller than before was absorbed. Chen Fei endured the piercing pain in his head and submerged his head into the hot spring again.

For eight consecutive days, Chen Fei did not go anywhere. He stayed in this inn. Other than eating three meals, the rest of the time was spent on various cultivation.

Even though he had used all of his Vital Energy to cultivate the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, the medicinal pills and the lowering of the limit of the fourth stage of the Origin Connection Technique still pushed Chen Fei’s realm to the Marrow Tempering realm.

The effects of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s cultivation were also far beyond Chen Fei’s expectations, making Chen Fei somewhat glad that he had made the choice.

Chen Fei stood in front of the hot spring. The water reflected Chen Fei’s current appearance.

Compared to eight days ago, Chen Fei’s image had changed quite a bit. His skin, which used to be dark, had actually started to turn fair.

What was more obvious was the facial features. In the past, Chen Fei really looked like an ordinary person. Coupled with his tanned face, his appearance could be said to be very ordinary. At most, his cultivation would only increase later on, and he would look much taller.

But now, the person reflected on the water surface had rather three-dimensional facial features. At a rough glance, it felt that there was no change from before. However, the more he looked at it, the more interesting it became.

When had Chen Fei ever cared about whether he was handsome or not? He was superficial!

Chen Fei touched his own face and turned his body to look at his reflection. The corners of his mouth could not help but reveal a smile.

Other than the change in his appearance, the power contained in Chen Fei’s body had increased by a large margin. In comparison, the current Chen Fei was equivalent to constantly activating the state of Tremendous Strength.

If he were to stack the Tremendous Strength characteristic, Chen Fei’s strength would reach a rather high level.

Not only his strength, but Chen Fei’s five senses had also become much sharper. He could sense the minute details of his surroundings extremely clearly, making Chen Fei extremely alert.

“Tsk!

The blade of the sword cut through the air and made a sound. Chen Fei calmly withdrew the long sword in his hand.

The Suppressing Dragon Elephant allowed Chen Fei’s control over his body to increase by a notch. This directly showed that Sword Five had become a regular move, and Chen Fei could use it easily.

Sword Six had been a heavy burden to his body ever since he used it.

The control of the body was in exchange for the reduction of the burden on the body from all kinds of moves.

In just eight days, although Chen Fei’s cultivation had not broken through to the Marrow Tempering realm, his overall combat strength had increased by a large margin compared to the beginning.

(Cultivation Technique: Suppressing Dragon Elephant (325/500)]

“There’s only a portion of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant.”

Chen Fei looked at the information on the interface and felt a little regretful.

He was only at the entry level, yet he had already undergone such a huge change. As he continued to cultivate, it would definitely bring more benefits to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei put away his long sword. He needed to return to the sect.

After so many days of cultivation, the Thorn Sword had long been cultivated to perfection. Even if he had cultivated the Dragon-Suppressing Elephant one more day, it would not be able to improve much. More importantly, Chen Fei still needed to purchase some things, and he had to return to the sect today.

They were leaving early the next morning. If Chen Fei was late, who knew how many misunderstandings it would cause?

An hour later, Chen Fei walked out of a shop with a strong bow in his hand.

The Suppressing Dragon Elephant’s cultivation made the original bow appear weaker, and it was unable to display Chen Fei’s strength advantage. Moreover, he was about to break through to the Marrow Tempering realm, and his strength would increase again. He should change his bow first, in case he did not have a bow to use.

Two hours later, Chen Fei appeared in the sect and went to meet Feng Xiupu and Guo Linshan.

“Junior brother, I’ve already found a team for you, and they’ve agreed to accept you into their team.” Guo Linshan looked at Chen Fei and said with a smile.

“Thank you for your help, Senior Brother!” Chen Fei cupped his hands.

“Little Junior Brother, I haven’t seen you for a few days. Why do I feel like you’ve changed so much?” Guo Linshan stared at Chen Fei’s face and scratched his head in confusion.

He felt that his little junior brother had become ugly. How good was it when he was tan and strong back then? Why was he so fair now?

The next morning, hundreds of people gathered on the martial arts practice field of the sect. These were all disciples who were going to the Strange Wind Realm this time.

“Ge Hongjie, this is Chen Fei. I’ll be counting on you to take care of him in the Strang Wind Realm!” Guo Linshan brought Chen Fei to a brawny man.

Ge Hongjie raised his head and sized up Chen Fei. He nodded slightly, then lowered his head again and began to tidy up his things.

“He’s just like that. He’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside.” Guo Linshan explained awkwardly to Chen Fei..
