Chapter 54: Chapter -54 Blade emerges like dragon.
Chapter -54.
With a "creak," the door to the Sea God Pavilion swung open. "Teacher!" A striking middle-aged woman dressed in white with gold accents stepped inside. As she entered, she was met with a hall enveloped in darkness, where an extraordinarily handsome young man stood. His black hair swirled dramatically, and his eyes sparkled like stars.
In his hand, he held a black blade that glinted eerily, and he stood tall and proud, exuding an aura that seemed to crowd around him. The middle-aged beauty gasped at his appearance, recognizing him as Chen Feng. "Wow! What a handsome young man! He must be Chen Feng. Wait! Is that a domain-type soul skill he's using, similar to Teacher's Dragon Emperor's Domain? How is that even possible?!" This woman was Xian Lin'er, the head of the Soul Guidance Department at Shrek Academy and one of Mu En's students.
Xian Lin'er silently watched, intrigued by Chen Feng. She had heard praises from several elders at the Sea God Pavilion about his incredible talent, so much so that her own teacher had chosen to mentor him intensively and even considered him as a potential heir to the Sea God Pavilion. Curiosity was natural in this case.
Thinking to herself, "I arrived just in time to witness Chen Feng stepping out of seclusion; seeing is believing, and indeed, the rumors hold weight," she reflected on her teacher's renowned skills, the Dragon Emperor's Evil Breaking Slash and Dragon Emperor's Domain. However, none of Mu En's students had been able to learn these skills due to their distinct martial souls.
At that moment, Chen Feng was channeling the Soul Breaking Blade Intent to activate his martial soul's source power, merging the blade intent and this source power into a formidable blade domain. Any being within this realm would experience a relentless surge of energy from the soul-breaking powers at play—a fusion of the Sword's intent and the source energy.
The potency of the Soul Breaking Blade Domain was so immense that even a Soul King positioned within it would feel overwhelmed by the sword's soul-breaking power. Elder Mu, reclining comfortably within the domain, remained completely still, unfazed by the whirlwind of power surrounding him.
Mu En was astonished; he hadn't anticipated that Chen Feng could create a unique soul skill based on his martial soul's source power. With a gentle gaze and a smile, Mu En addressed Chen Feng, "You truly surprise me, Chen Feng. Go ahead and show me what else you can do. I'm eager to learn!"
Chen Feng knew it was impossible for him to genuinely harm Mu En, a ninety-ninth-level Limit Douluo, but this was just a demonstration, and he needed to put forth his best performance and impress him.
As he focused, his spiritual energy enveloped the entire Soul Breaking Blade Domain. The previously dispersed blade energy began to converge towards the Soul Breaking Blade in his grasp under his careful guidance. The thirty-meter domain didn't just vanish; it transformed into an ethereal black dragon that flowed into his blade.
The blade energy encompassed by Chen Feng's martial soul was a testament to his incredible mastery and spiritual strength, which was unparalleled among his peers.
With a "buzz, buzz, buzz!" the energy heightened, and the Soul Breaking Blade seemed to come to life, radiating an intense black glow.
Holding the Soul Breaking Blade firmly, Chen Feng focused intently, its tone echoing with power, transforming as though it were morphing into a black dragon.
With a swift slash, the blade cut through the air with a shriek, sending forth a massive wave of black blade energy that coiled and roared, charging towards Mu En.
This movement was elegant, fast as lightning, with beams of blade light crisscrossing throughout the space.
Mu En's eyes lit up with excitement. Witnessing this incredible self-created soul skill that condensed the entire domain into a blade, he couldn't help but applaud, "Wonderful! Simply wonderful!!"
His three enthusiastic praises clearly indicated his delight with Chen Feng's display.
Mu En believed that Chen Feng's self-created skill stood shoulder to shoulder with his ultimate techniques, the Dragon Emperor Breaking Evil and Dragon Emperor Shocking Domain.
Meanwhile, Xian Lin'er watched in astonishment, her mouth agape in disbelief at Chen Feng's impressive strike.
Could a Soul Zun really pull off something like this?
The strength behind this slash was beyond anything a Soul Zun could typically achieve; even the best students at Shrek Academy, including Soul Kings, would struggle to match it.
Additionally, the techniques involved were so sophisticated that even Xian Lin'er felt a sense of inferiority.
After delivering the slash, Chen Feng found himself gasping for breath; the earlier onslaught that maintained the Soul Breaking Blade Domain and transformed it into a single powerful blade had drained a significant amount of his energy.
If it weren't for his robust soul power and swift recovery far exceeding the norm, he wouldn't have managed the toll this exertion demanded. Nevertheless, he was left with only one-tenth of his total soul power.
As Mu En observed the black dragon charging towards him, he calmly extended his hand, seemingly without effort, and blocked the blade's attack.
When the black dragon impacted his palm, it felt like hitting an unmovable mountain, unable to push forward even a fraction.
Then, with a light push, the black dragon exploded like a bubble and faded into the air.
Mu En gazed at Chen Feng, who was panting from the exertion. With his wisdom and poise, he felt a deep sense of admiration.
Xian Lin'er stepped closer and bowed respectfully to Mu En.
He waved her off and then kindly turned to Chen Feng, asking, "Young man, does this technique of yours have a name?"
Chen Feng, seeing the admiration in Mu En's eyes, understood that he had impressed him greatly.
He replied, "Senior, I've named my self-created soul skill the Soul Breaking Blade Domain."
Mu En couldn't help but chuckle, and added, "My surname is Mu; you can call me Mu Lao. 'Soul Breaking Blade Domain'—what a straightforward name."
"And next to me is my disciple and the head of the Soul Guidance Department, Xian Lin'er."
Chen Feng nodded obediently, "Hello, Mu Lao. Hello, Dean Xian."
Xian Lin'er smiled back. It was hard not to admire a young man as striking and charismatic as Chen Feng.
With a nurturing tone, Mu En asked, "So, what are your thoughts on Shrek Academy?"
Chen Feng's demeanor shifted to seriousness; he understood that Mu En was inquiring about his willingness to join the academy.
"Mu Lao, Shrek Academy is the top academy in the continent, and I genuinely appreciate it here," Chen Feng answered.
Mu En nodded approvingly. "Chen Feng, do you want to join Shrek Academy?"
Xian Lin'er added, "Chen Feng, you should know that not only is Shrek Academy the leading academy on the continent, but it is also among the top three powers. By joining, you will receive extensive support in your training. When you are ready for a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, Shrek will even hunt down a hundred-thousand-year soul beast specifically for you, along with providing all necessary training resources…"
