Time flowed, and half a day passed in the blink of an eye. Some people had left the Enlightenment Tower, while others had arrived anew.

The Enlightenment Tower, though remarkable, was quite exhausting when the apertures and mental faculties were constantly in opposition. As time went on, the pressure within the Enlightenment Tower only intensified.

This increase in pressure didn’t necessarily enhance one’s ability to deduce; it was simply the Enlightenment Tower urging people to leave, to prevent any lasting injuries from overestimating their capabilities while inside.

On the sixth floor, two advanced Aperture Tempering realm practitioners had voluntarily descended to the fifth floor to continue their cultivation.

Meanwhile, within the Enlightenment Tower’s seventh floor, Yan Zesong gazed at the staircase leading to the eighth floor, his expression becoming somewhat inexplicable. That person was still cultivating on the eighth floor.

Originally, Yan Zesong had speculated that Chen Fei possessed an extraordinary top-tier spiritual weapon, allowing him to cultivate on the eighth floor. However, half a day had passed, and this conjecture no longer held water.

Subjecting a top-tier spiritual weapon to combat with a spiritual treasure for half a day would likely have resulted in the former sustaining damage, potentially dropping its rank to a superior spiritual weapon, or even a medium-grade spiritual weapon.

Even the wealthiest martial artists would probably have refrained from such profligacy.

Hence, it was evident that the individual’s ability to cultivate on the eighth floor was genuinely due to their own strength.

What kind of profound technique is this that can sustain apertures and mental faculties for such a long time, and it doesn’t seem to show any signs of weakness?

Yan Zesong was curious, but asking someone about their martial technique was a grave taboo among martial artists. Others simply wouldn’t divulge such information.

Yan Zesong felt a bit frustrated, no longer dwelling on Chen Fei’s matters. Dealing with someone who played their cards so unpredictably left anyone at a loss.

Meanwhile, on the eighth floor of the Enlightenment Tower, Chen Fei had already immersed his entire mind in his deductions. He showed no reaction to anything happening in the outside world.

The deduction of the Primordial Sword Body was progressing very smoothly, even beyond Chen Fei’s expectations.

The Enlightenment Tower’s role was evident, but Chen Fei speculated that the primary reason was the level he had reached with the Primordial Sword Scripture.

Initially, the Primordial Sword Scripture was just a martial technique. However, the founder of the Primordial Sword Sect later split it into seven separate techniques due to the difficulty of cultivation.

Therefore, these seven techniques had deep connections, and the general outline of the Primordial Sword Scripture remained intact, deepening those connections even further.

Under the influence of the Enlightenment Tower, many details and previously overlooked aspects were now emerging in Chen Fei’s mind.

As a result, in just half a day, Chen Fei had deduced the Primordial Sword Body to the advanced Aperture Tempering realm level, reaching eighty-five apertures.

The complete version of the Primordial Sword Body required cultivating only eighty-eight apertures. With just three more to go, Chen Fei could complete the deduction of the Primordial Sword Body.

As time slowly passed, Chen Fei began to sense that the pressure on the eighth floor of the Enlightenment Tower was gradually increasing. However, with the protection of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, Chen Fei remained completely composed.

Eighty-six, eighty-seven!

Two more apertures’ opening methods were deduced by Chen Fei, and a faint smile appeared on his face involuntarily. He was only one aperture away from completing the Primordial Sword Body.

However, the location of this last aperture was proving to be the most challenging.

Chen Fei didn’t rush but continued to contemplate the various thoughts in his sea of consciousness. Simultaneously, he verified whether there were any errors or omissions in the Primordial Sword Body that he had deduced earlier.

The likelihood of errors or omissions should be low, as Chen Fei had relied on the validation of the other six martial techniques to support the Primordial Sword Body. This was quite different from those who truly created martial techniques from scratch based solely on their own ideas.

As time passed bit by bit, more and more thoughts formed in Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness, creating a massive circle that spun wildly in his mind.

“Buzz!”

At a certain moment, Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness suddenly trembled, and the circle formed by those thoughts instantly exploded. Chen Fei’s eyes involuntarily opened, radiating a dazzling brilliance.

The 88th aperture was complete!

The complete method of cultivating the Primordial Sword Body, from the Visceral Tempering realm to the advanced Aperture Tempering realm, was now fully presented in Chen Fei’s mind.

In less than a day’s time, Chen Fei had astonishingly succeeded in repairing the damaged advanced Aperture Tempering realm inheritance!

This level of efficiency was beyond even Chen Fei’s most optimistic expectations. Yet, reality often brought you the most pleasant surprises.

[Technique: Primordial Sword Body (Introductory)]

On the interface, the inheritance of the Primordial Sword Body was displayed clearly, without any mention of missing or incomplete parts. It was evident that the Primordial Sword Body deduced by Chen Fei was indeed complete and practicable.

Furthermore, Chen Fei had a feeling that his progress in cultivating this Primordial Sword Body might be exceptionally rapid.

While deducing the Primordial Sword Body, the other six techniques from the Primordial Sword Scripture had provided Chen Fei with many insights. However, there was another technique subtly driving the deduction of the Primordial Sword Body.

That was the ever-present Suppressing Dragon Elephant, which had been safeguarding Chen Fei.

The Primordial Sword Body was a body-refining technique, emphasizing the cultivation of sword-like physique. When it came to body-refining, the Suppressing Dragon Elephant was undoubtedly the most potent body-refining technique Chen Fei had encountered.

Chen Fei had already mastered the body-sealing part of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant a long time ago. Starting from this point and combining it with the cultivation of the Primordial Sword Body, there might be an even greater surprise awaiting Chen Fei.

Thinking about this, Chen Fei stood up and prepared to find a suitable place to diligently cultivate the Primordial Sword Body.

While the Enlightenment Tower was primarily a place for comprehending and deducing martial techniques, and though the Vital Energy here was abundant, it wasn’t a place where most people would choose to practice their techniques.

This was the treasure of the Thousand Feather Alliance, although it’s just a sub-soul, it’s still something belonging to a Mountain Sea realm powerhouse. Being in the Enlightenment Tower and utilizing its power to deduce techniques is understandable.

But if you intend to take advantage of the Enlightenment Tower’s energy here, you need to be careful and consider whether your small stature can withstand a blow from a Mountain Sea realm powerhouse.

Descending from the eighth floor, Chen Fei arrived at the seventh floor of the Enlightenment Tower, where he happened to see Yan Zesong looking up.

Chen Fei nodded slightly in acknowledgment and then continued descending.

Yan Zesong was somewhat surprised by Chen Fei’s departure. After all, he had spent less than a day here, and he was leaving just like that?

What kind of technique was he deducing with such speed, and did he gain anything from it, or did he simply choose to leave?

A few people on the sixth floor of the Enlightenment Tower saw Chen Fei and assumed that he was going to sit on the sixth floor to continue deducing techniques. To their surprise, Chen Fei turned and walked toward the exit of the tower.

These people were a bit puzzled by Chen Fei’s actions but soon stopped paying attention. It was someone else’s business, and they didn’t need to be overly concerned.

Chen Fei made his way to the ground floor of the Enlightenment Tower and then walked out of the tower’s entrance.

The omnipresent pressure instantly disappeared, replaced by a genuine sense of relief coursing through Chen Fei’s body.

What he had just felt within the Enlightenment Tower wasn’t too deep, but now Chen Fei realized a slight fatigue. Training on the eighth floor of the Enlightenment Tower did indeed entail tremendous pressure.

If it weren’t for the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, Chen Fei wouldn’t have been able to stay there for half a day.

A disciple servant looked at Chen Fei in surprise. Chen Fei had just entered half a day ago, so the disciple servant naturally remembered.

“Any gains?” the disciple servant asked curiously.

“A lot of benefits!” Chen Fei replied with a smile, gesturing with his hand, and then headed towards the outskirts.

The disciple servant could sense Chen Fei’s genuine smile and could tell that he had indeed gained something. To have gains in just half a day was a first in the several years the disciple servant had been on duty.

On the outskirts of the square, Mi Xian was sitting on the ground, looking down. Suddenly, she saw a figure stop in front of her, and she instinctively looked up.

“You’re out, my lord?”

Mi Xian quickly stood up, her eyes filled with some confusion. While she didn’t understand the Enlightenment Tower, she had heard that many people would stay inside for several days.

Mi Xian hadn’t left because she had received ten silver taels from Chen Fei and had agreed to stay for a day, so she would stay long enough before leaving.

“Let’s go to the best place you mentioned in Haiyan City.” Chen Fei looked at Mi Xian and said with a soft smile.

Chen Fei hadn’t expected that this little girl would still be waiting here, which was somewhat surprising to him.

“Alright, my lord, this way!”

Hearing Chen Fei’s words, Mi Xian couldn’t help but lick her lips, and her stomach rumbled. For the past half day, Mi Xian had only eaten some dry rations and drank water, and she hadn’t had anything else to eat.

A quarter of an hour later, Mi Xian led Chen Fei to a restaurant.

Compared to other restaurants, this one was somewhat remote in terms of location, but there was a constant stream of people coming here to eat. From a distance, Chen Fei could already smell the delightful aroma wafting from inside the restaurant.

“My lord, I’ll wait for you outside,” Mi Xian stood at the entrance, looking up at Chen Fei with a smile.

“Let’s go together, it’s more lively with more people,” Chen Fei smiled slightly and walked towards the restaurant’s entrance.

Mi Xian was momentarily taken aback but then followed happily behind Chen Fei. She had only ever smelled the delicious food but had never actually tasted it. One of Mi Xian’s dreams was to come here and have a meal, and she couldn’t believe it was about to come true so quickly.

Chen Fei habitually found a window seat and ordered a few signature dishes from the waiter. Mi Xian sat nervously in her chair, not daring to look around, her hands fidgeting under the table.

Only her little nose was busy sniffing the delightful aromas in the air, and her mouth couldn’t stop salivating.

Watching Mi Xian’s behavior, a smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face. Mi Xian’s demeanor reminded him of some of his past experiences. In Pingyin County, Chen Fei’s previous self wasn’t much stronger than Mi Xian.

But now, Chen Fei had changed a lot, thanks to martial arts!

The Primordial Sword Scripture was about to reach perfection, the advanced Aperture Tempering realm realm was within reach!
