nChapter 880: Limits

nEditor: Dragon Boat Translation

nIn the Nirvana Fire, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix wore a solemn expression.

nChen Fei’s performance, defeating ten opponents single-handedly, greatly boosted the confidence and morale of their side. Bloodwing Divine Phoenix volunteered to be the first to enter the arena.

nUnlike Chen Fei, who had managed to slaughter ten opponents, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix only hoped to secure two or three victories.

nAs soon as Bloodwing Divine Phoenix entered the arena, it encountered She Mingchuan from Shadow Island.

nThe Nirvana Fire spread across most of the battlefield, enveloping She Mingchuan. This level of Nirvana Fire was the most comfortable for Bloodwing Divine Phoenix.

nIt caused no burden and even allowed the Nirvana Fire to nourish its own body by burning the world’s essence.

nHowever, She Mingchuan managed to resist the Nirvana Fire and even struck a spatial rift with a single sword strike.

nFor a moment, Bloodwing Divine Phoenix felt a sense of deja vu, reminiscent of facing Chen Fei.

nWhile creating a spatial rift in the mid-stage of the fourth rank was relatively challenging, doing so in the late stage of the fourth rank was significantly easier.

nYet, this didn’t mean that every late-stage fourth-rank practitioner could accomplish this; sometimes even a peak fourth-rank with relatively mediocre strength might struggle.

nShe Mingchuan, however, effortlessly tore apart the space with a single sword strike.

nBloodwing Divine Phoenix proactively narrowed the range of Nirvana Fire and increased their intensity.

nOn the battlefield, the space burned and wrinkled, but She Mingchuan stood there calmly, his cold sword intent sweeping through the Nirvana Fire, continuously searching for the true form of Bloodwing Divine Phoenix.

n“I have killed many monsters with Divine Monster Bloodlines, but never one as truly divine as you.”

nShe Mingchuan’s protective sword essence isolated the Nirvana Fire. His eyes suddenly fixed on a location, and his mouth curled into a slight smile as he said, ” I hope you won’ t disappoint me!”

nAs soon as his words fell, She Mingchuan vanished from sight.

nLike a sharp sword cutting through space, he left a trail in the Nirvana Fire.

nShe Mingchuan reappeared, his transparent sword piercing directly into the Nirvana Fire.

n“Boom!”

nWhere the transparent sword passed, the space shattered into a hollow, and the surrounding Nirvana Fire were violently devoured.

nShe Mingchuan’s gaze shifted as he withdrew his sword and slashed again in the right direction.

n“Whoosh!”

nWithin the Nirvana Fire, the figure of Bloodwing Divine Phoenix flickered briefly.

nBloodwing Divine Phoenix was unharmed but felt as though it was being hunted by She Mingchuan.

nIn theory, every spot within the Nirvana Fire could be the true form of Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, and it could appear anywhere at will.

nHowever, in practice, the true form of the phoenix had a specific location within the Nirvana Fire.

nWhile most of the same rank would have difficulty locating the phoenix in the flames, She Mingchuan could. At this moment, he followed the faint traces of the world’s essence to find Bloodwing Divine Phoenix’s true form.

nChen Fei watched from the sidelines as She Mingchuan casually swung his sword, causing the entire Nirvana Fire to shake violently.

nIt was still too early to determine the outcome, but if Bloodwing Divine Phoenix couldn’t find a way to counter She Mingchuan, the current disadvantage might turn into a complete defeat.

nRegaining ground later would not be so easy.

nHowever, it must be said that She Mingchuan’s sword intent was indeed overwhelming.

nThe phoenix, being a divine beast, was very balanced in all aspects—attack, defense, and movement—all positioned at a high level among its peers.

nWithout any obvious weaknesses, its combined strengths could unleash immense power.

nIn terms of defense, She Mingchuan could not match Bloodwing Divine Phoenix, but his astonishing attack power and keen insight were formidable.

nFinding the phoenix’s true form in the Nirvana Fire was something that ordinary peak fourth-rank practitioners might not be able to do.

nAs Chen Fei focused on the battle while also dividing his attention to the jade slips, he reflected on the method of using his innate talent to forge a Divine Power seed.

nOnce the talent was used up in this process, it would vanish, but if he truly broke through to the Sun Moon Realm, the innate talent’s initial enhancement would be permanently etched into his body.

nHowever, this enhancement would become a fixed value and would no longer grow with increased base strength.

nThis wasn’t a sign of weakened talent, but rather that the power growth in the Sun Moon Realm was so significant that the innate talent could no longer provide substantial benefits.

nJust like a martial artist with innate divine strength, their advantage is significant in the early stages but becomes limited as their strength grows.

nThe same applied to innate talent in the Mountain Sea Realm, which is why the Sun Moon Realm’s divine abilities were created.

nPredecessors developed this realm upon realizing that their strength had reached a plateau and needed another method to continue enhancing their power.

n“The fixed enhancement from innate talent means that the Six Desires Demonic Separation is still useful.”

nChen Fei knew that breaking through the Sun Moon Realm required refining one’s essence, qi, spirit, and soul to their peak, and then breaking through the constraints. The Six Desires Demonic Separation, devouring one’s six Demonic Bodies, would enhance these aspects to an extraordinary level.

nAs long as there were no major setbacks, breaking through to the Sun Moon Realm would be relatively smooth.

nUsing innate talent to forge the Divine Power seed had changed the method, but the Six Desires Demonic Separation’s effectiveness remained because it could slightly enhance innate talent in addition to boosting essence, energy, spirit, and soul.
