Chapter 345: Sword Return Tower

Chen Fei had a smile on his face. After confirming that the Great Thunder Sword was real, Chen Fei’s trip was worth it.
Chen Fei looked around. The secret chamber was not small, so there were many things stored here. In the corner, there was even a wooden box with hundreds of elemental stones piled up.
Other than elemental stones, there were also some pills. They were all spiritual pills that could be consumed by aperture tempering realm intermediate stage cultivators. Chen Fei roughly looked at them and found that there were about a dozen of them.
Other than pills and elemental stones, there were also three inferior-grade spirit weapons placed on the shelf. Chen Fei took a look. The spirituality contained in the spirit weapon was not high. It had barely reached the level of a low-grade spirit weapon.
It should be the spoils of war that Chou Yuanceng had obtained after killing an aperture tempering realm cultivator. He didn’t need it for the time being, so he decided to leave it here.
Chen Fei’s gaze turned and saw a praying mat and a desk. There were three jade stones on the desk. Light swirled around the jade, and a faint vital energy surrounded it.
This was a cultivation technique jade scroll. It was somewhat similar to the cultivation technique inheritance stone used in the sect. However, the cultivation technique inheritance stone could record more information. The amount of information that this jade scroll could carry was relatively small.
Other than these, there were also some spiritual materials in the secret chamber. However, there weren’t many of them, and their value wasn’t high.
“Spare my life and I’ll tell you everything I know. If you don’t believe me, I can swear an oath!” Chou Yuanceng’s eyes kept rolling. At this moment, his life was hanging by a thread. Chou Yuanceng didn’t want to die. He wanted to continue living.
Chen Fei did not respond to Chou Yuanceng. He waved his right hand gently, and the three jade scrolls on the table fell into Chen Fei’s hand. He activated the mirror image technique of the Godslayer Sword, and Chen Fei separated a part of his mental consciousness to probe into the jade scrolls.
If there were any issues with the jade scrolls, this reflected mental consciousness could be discarded directly without affecting Chen Fei’s core mental consciousness.
In less than a few breaths, Chen Fei’s face revealed joy.
These three jade scrolls recorded three cultivation techniques respectively. One was the Blood Origin Technique that Chou Yuanceng had cultivated himself. He had yet to fully read it. With just a few glances, Chen Fei could feel the tyrannical intent within the cultivation technique.
This cultivation method was indeed very powerful. It could actually open up a total of 104 acupoints. It was already not inferior to some of the top inheritances of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.
The various techniques contained in the cultivation technique were also exquisite and peerless. With such a cultivation technique, one could actually establish a sect, and the strength of this sect would expand at a very fast speed.
It was because the Blood Origin Technique had very little reliance on external objects before the Aperture Tempering realm. Only after reaching the Aperture Tempering realm did it require resources similar to other cultivators.
However, the Blood Origin Technique had a huge drawback. From the Aperture Tempering realm onwards, one’s temperament would become more and more eccentric and violent. Naturally, he would do so when he was in the Body Refining Realm. However, if he was more determined, he could still endure it.
However, at the aperture tempering realm, it wasn’t a problem that could be solved by one person’s willpower. This was a cultivation technique that could change a person from the source of the mind.
As long as one cultivated, there was no way to reverse the situation. Unless the cultivator’s mental strength far exceeded the cultivation of the Blood Origin Technique and had a powerful mental cultivation technique to guard the sea of consciousness, only then could they suppress this kind of mutation.
Without a doubt, this was very difficult. The sect that created the Blood Origin Technique back then might have been destroyed because of this. After all, when the entire sect had abnormal personalities, it was easy to invite death.
Unless one’s strength was always the number one in the world, there would always be trouble.
Chen Fei naturally would not cultivate such a cultivation technique. Although he had the Suppressing Dragon Elephant to guard his mind, it was pointless to keep a time bomb in his body and worry that it would explode at any time.
Furthermore, the Blood Origin Technique wasn’t completely recorded in the jade scroll. There should be some key points that Chou Yuanceng had deleted. If an ordinary person were to cultivate rashly, their blood would probably flow backwards and they would die before they even reached the Visceral Tempering stage.
Clearly, Chou Yuanceng was extremely concerned about this cultivation technique. Even in this most secretive and concealed place, he didn’t have the habit of keeping the complete cultivation technique intact.
The second jade scroll recorded a movement technique at the aperture tempering realm. However, it was much weaker than the Soaring Fleaven Technique, so it wasn’t of much use to Chen Fei.
Chen Fei only glanced at it and then directly ignored it. His gaze was mainly focused on the third jade scroll. Because this jade scroll recorded the Great Thunder Sword!
The sequence of opening the 85 acupoints was flawless. The only thing missing is some accompanying techniques, which are not recorded in the jade scroll. However, this is not a problem because in the Primordial Sword Sect, the techniques of the Great Thunder Sword are preserved.
What’s lacking in the Primordial Sword Sect’s Great Thunder Sword are the sequences and methods for opening acupoints. Combining these two elements completes the full Great Thunder Sword technique.
This was also the true reason why Chen Fei’s face revealed a look of joy.
“Where did he get this Great Thunder Sword?”
Chen Fei held the jade scroll and looked at Chou Yuanceng. At the same time, he glanced at the person in the blood tank. This was a method of forcefully dispersing one’s mind and destroying one’s spiritual intelligence, while at the same time preserving the vitality and liveliness of one’s body.
This was an extremely painful thing that others could not imagine. This person had treated Chou Yuanceng as a good friend and was even willing to share the secret of the Great Thunder Sword, but in the end, he ended up like this.
How lamentable!
From this, it could be seen how twisted the minds of those who cultivated the Blood Origin Technique were. Perhaps in these people’s hearts, everything in the world could be killed and refined.
The only thing restricting them was those who were stronger than them.
“I can tell you, but you can’t kill me!” Chou Yuanceng stared at Chen Fei and said.
“Do you believe me when I say I won’t kill you?” Chen Fei laughed softly. Chou Yuanceng was as cunning as a fox. He had never thought of giving up even when he was injured.
He even defeated Chen Fei in Shang Wu City. If Chen Fei hadn’t been on guard against Chou Yuanceng, he would have been locked in the study room of the Zhao Mansion, surrounded by the Aperture Tempering realm cultivators of Shang Wu City.
“I swear to you, and you swear to me as well, and I will tell you everything!” Chou Yuanceng said in a deep voice.
“You don’t have any bargaining chips to negotiate these conditions with me!”
As the sound of Chen Fei’s voice faded, he raised his right hand. A sword light flashed, and Chou Yuanceng’s remaining arm exploded. The link between Chou Yuanceng and the person in the blood tank was severed.
“All!”
Chou Yuanceng cried out in shock. The Blood Spirit Possession was violently interrupted, and all the blood in his body began to flow backwards. An unimaginable pain spread through Chou Yuanceng’s body.
Chou Yuanceng had a much higher tolerance for pain than most cultivators. After all, every half a year, the Blood Origin Technique would cause the blood in his body to boil, accompanied by intense pain.
Thus, when Chen Fei pierced Chou Yuanceng’s acupoints and shattered his arm, Chou Yuanceng’s roar was more of a disguise to numb Chen Fei’s vigilance.
Only in this way could he increase the possibility of success in his escape in Shang Wu City.
However, now that the Blood Spirit Possession had been interrupted, the tearing of his body, mind, and intelligence was truly unimaginable.
In Chou Yuanceng’s mind, he suddenly thought of his best friend. Back then, when he had refined him into this state, he seemed to have heard this heart-wrenching cry.
However, at that time, Chou Yuanceng saw the success of this backup plan that he had prepared. He only felt satisfied in his heart. As for the rest, Chou Yuanceng had never cared about them!
The scene was so similar. Karma?
“This state of yours will last for two hours.” Chen Fei looked at Chou Yuanceng and said.
“Kill me, kill me!” Exclaimed Chou Yuanceng, his eyes bloodshot, as he screamed at Chen Fei.
“Your spiritual wisdom, if you want to hide it within this blood tank, you have two choices: either 1 kill you, or you need a natural transfer that takes 15 minutes.”
Chen Fei gazed at the writhing Chou Yuanceng on the ground and calmly said, “If I kill you, your spiritual wisdom should suffer some damage and require a longer time to recover. But if you choose the natural transfer, there will be some noticeable signs, and you’re worried about me finding out?”
Chou Yuanceng, who had been in agonizing screams, suddenly stopped, looking at Chen Fei in disbelief. His eyes were filled with fear. Had his last resort been discovered too?
The function of this blood tank wasn’t just to maintain the vitality of the person inside; in critical moments, it could also be used to store Chou Yuanceng’s spiritual wisdom.
It was a choice for the worst-case scenario, but compared to death, it offered at least a glimmer of hope.
However, this glimmer of hope was now forcefully torn apart by Chen Fei, leaving no trace of the survival instinct that Chou Yuanceng had held onto.
In moments of intense survival, people could forget a lot of pain because they had hope ahead. But right now, with no hope in sight, the physical pain seemed to return a thousandfold, nearly engulfing Chou Yuanceng.
“Sword Return Tower. 1 got this cultivation technique from Sword Return Tower!” Chou Yuanceng cried out in despair. Right now, he only wanted to die.
“Sword Return Tower?”
Chen Fei frowned slightly. He had heard of this sect before, but how could the Great Thunder Sword be involved with this sect?
“Tsk!”
He waved the Qianyuan Sword, and a black sword light swept across. Chou Yuanceng’s cries stopped abruptly, and his body trembled slightly before turning into ashes.
It wasn’t just Chou Yuanceng. The blood tank and the person inside it had all turned to dust.
A few wisps of spiritual essence floated out and were guided into the Qianyuan Sword by Chen Fei. The body of the Qianyuan Sword flashed slightly, and its spiritual fluctuation seemed to reveal a trace of joy.
Chen Fei summoned the wooden cabinet in the space grid and packed everything in the secret chamber into the wooden cabinet.
Chou Yuanceng was quite wealthy. After all, the aperture tempering realm required him to constantly purchase resources to cultivate. It was not easy to save elemental stones and pills.
For example, Chen Fei had basically consumed all the pills he had. It was also because of the uniqueness of the interface that Chen Fei had specially saved a portion of elemental stones and placed them in the interface.
After packing up all the valuable things in the secret chamber, Chen Fei looked around. After confirming that he had not missed anything, his figure flashed and disappeared from where he was.
One Great Thunder Sword was not enough.. Chen Fei needed to find out what was going on with the Sword Return Tower and how it had the inheritance of the Great Thunderous Sword technique!
