Chapter 6: Martial Technique – Thousand Phantom Slash

Our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/PazjBDkTmW

Chen Fei suppressed the impulse for revenge. He was well aware of the Qin family’s foundation. With his current cultivation at the Ninth Rank of the Spiritual Master Realm, he had no way to destroy the Qin family. After all, the Qin family had at least four Great Spiritual Masters at the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Without hesitation, Chen Fei took out his remaining high-grade spirit stones and immediately absorbed and refined them!

Boom!

The internal energy within his body surged violently!

Finally, he underwent the last transformation, breaking through from the Spirit Gathering Realm into the Spirit Transformation Realm.

At that moment, the Void Heaven Cauldron in his dantian suddenly radiated a dazzling golden light.

The golden light transformed into countless streams of information, instantly pouring into Chen Fei’s mind.

At the same time, he was astonished to discover that the Void Heaven Cauldron had evolved and imparted a martial technique to him.

“Thousand Phantom Slash!”

“This technique is compatible with any weapon and can continuously amplify its power through the Void Heaven Cauldron!”

“Minimum enhancement: fivefold increase in strength; maximum enhancement: sixteenfold!”

Chen Fei was overwhelmed with excitement!

Martial techniques were among the most valuable inheritances for Spiritual Masters. They were ranked from strongest to weakest as Heavenly, Earthly, Profound, Spiritual, and Common levels.

Even Common martial techniques were worth a fortune and were the standard techniques cultivated by the Spiritual Masters of Yellow Mist City. Spiritual-level techniques and above were said to be possessed only by the city lord’s mansion.

Yet, the technique passed down by the Void Heaven Cauldron was undoubtedly of an extremely high level—at least superior to Spiritual-level techniques. After all, even the best Spiritual-level martial techniques only provided a threefold power increase.

“Qin family, your days are numbered!”

Chen Fei, brimming with joy, immediately began practicing the Thousand Phantom Slash in his room.

As his mind moved, the Void Heaven Cauldron in his dantian emitted a halo of light, surging like roaring waves, one after another.

With a single punch, energy surged forth, producing crackling explosions!

“Fivefold!”

“Right now, I can only amplify my strength five times with the Void Heaven Cauldron!”

Chen Fei confirmed that he could currently only unleash the minimum power of this martial technique.

Wasting no time, he sat cross-legged and resumed cultivation!

The precious high-grade spirit stones, which were priceless outside, were consumed like running water in Chen Fei’s hands as he madly absorbed and refined them!

“Whoosh…”

In the end, twenty high-grade spirit stones crumbled into a fine powder and completely dissipated.

By the time he finished cultivating, the sky had already darkened, and he had successfully advanced to the Second Rank of the Great Spiritual Master Realm.

“As expected, advancing in the Great Spiritual Master Realm requires an enormous amount of spiritual energy—far more than during the Spiritual Master stage!”

“These nineteen precious high-grade spirit stones only allowed me to break through from First Rank to Second Rank!”

“I’ll need even more cultivation resources.”

Chen Fei rolled his shoulders.

“Strange, why hasn’t Su Ran come back so late today?”

Chen Fei frowned slightly.

Su Ran harbored a great secret. The golden phoenix she carried gave him an immense sense of oppression—it clearly wasn’t an ordinary being of the mortal world.

Just as Chen Fei was wondering why Su Ran hadn’t returned, he saw her being helped back by Miao Yue.

Su Ran was injured, and severely so. Although there were no external wounds, she was weak and could barely walk on her own.

Seeing this, Chen Fei instinctively moved to step forward, only to catch himself. He then pretended to be blind and asked cautiously, “Is that Miss Su returning?”

“Young Master, it’s Miss Su.” Miao Yue replied hastily before helping the weak and exhausted Su Ran into the secret chamber.

Feeling uneasy, Chen Fei wanted to follow them, but Miao Yue stopped him at the door. “Young Master, sit down and don’t move around. No matter what you sense, forget about it.”

“What happened? Su Ran is so seriously injured, yet she has no external wounds?”

Chen Fei sat on the side, staring at the tightly shut secret chamber.

“Could it be that mysterious spiritual sorcerer?”

The thought of Su Cheng and Su Cai, the two brothers, flashed through Chen Fei’s mind.

Though he and Su Ran were only husband and wife in name, and had no real marital relationship, she had still saved him.

A life-saving grace must not be forgotten!

“Right now, I can’t help her. I just hope she’s alright.”

Chen Fei sighed. His plans to take revenge on the Qin family and investigate Li Zhong’s whereabouts would have to be put on hold.

For two hours, Chen Fei sat in his room, guarding outside the secret chamber. Eventually, Miao Yue emerged, drenched in sweat.

“Is Miss Su alright?” Chen Fei asked with concern.

“She’s fine,” Miao Yue replied, clearly exhausted.

Then, shockingly, she began undressing right in front of him.

Seeing her exposed shoulders, Chen Fei suddenly felt awkward. She truly didn’t see him as an outsider.

As Miao Yue was about to remove the last thin layer of her clothing, she finally seemed to realize something. She glanced at Chen Fei.

Noticing his hollow, blind eyes, she sighed in relief and was about to continue undressing. The wet clothes sticking to her skin were uncomfortable.

Chen Fei, feeling inexplicably hot and dry in his throat, had to admit—Miao Yue was a top-tier beauty. Such a direct display would be tempting for any man.

He quickly coughed and stopped her. “It’s late. Since Miss Su is fine, I should rest now.”

Miao Yue was briefly stunned. She initially wanted to explain that she would leave after changing, but then realized that would be disrespectful to the blind young master.

Reluctantly, she put her clothes back on and, before leaving, grabbed a nearby tablecloth to wrap herself in.

Only after she left did Chen Fei finally breathe a sigh of relief.

That night, he didn’t sleep. Su Ran’s severe injuries still made him uneasy, so he stayed outside the secret chamber, ready to react at any moment.

“Why are you standing guard here?”

Early in the morning, Su Ran had recovered. Seeing Chen Fei sitting outside the secret chamber, she frowned.

“I was worried about you, so I stayed here,” Chen Fei answered honestly.

Su Ran examined her blindfolded husband. After confirming he couldn’t see, she nodded slightly. “It was just exhaustion from too much work at the mines. I’m fine now.”

“Though we are only husband and wife in name, you once saved my life. If you need anything, just ask.”

Su Ran knew Chen Fei meant well, but what could a blind, crippled man possibly do for her?

“I told you, you’re just my shield—to deal with Ye Bufan. Don’t burden yourself. We’re merely using each other.”

After saying this, Su Ran turned and quickly left.

Chen Fei chuckled bitterly and said no more.

Yes, to everyone, he was just a cripple—a man whose cultivation had been ruined by the Qin family, a blind nobody. If not for Su Ran’s needs, she wouldn’t have kept him around.

“Qin family…”

“Are you ready?”

“My revenge begins now!”

After Su Ran left, Chen Fei also departed from the marital residence. He didn’t openly walk out of the Su family estate but instead avoided the patrols and climbed over the walls to leave.

Getting revenge on the Qin family wasn’t just about storming in and killing everyone.

That would be too merciful for the ungrateful Qin family.

Instead, he would first destroy the Qin family’s pride—their commercial empire in Yellow Mist City.

Then, he would crush them piece by piece until they perished in regret and fear.

And finally, he would force that wretched woman, Qin Shuang, back from Silver Moon Academy.
