Clang!
The ringing cry of the Qian Yuan Sword echoed through the hall as it returned to Chen Fei's hand, making even the Qian Yuan Sword seem to tremble with excitement.
A sensation far more powerful than before flooded Chen Fei's mind.
The final trial directly used the power of his true body. Though he had also been at the Peak Aperture Refining Realm just now, even at the same realm, the difference in combat strength could be enormous.
Especially the physique granted by Dragon Subduing Elephant—the sensation of power surging through him was incomparable.
Chen Fei looked at the dozen or so statues around him before finally fixing his gaze on a man holding a blade.
The auras of the dozen statues were nearly identical in strength, and many of those people had now become leaders of their respective factions.
Chen Fei had also heard of the blade-wielding man. His name was Yan Xuanji, the current sect master of the Heavenly Saber Sect, and his cultivation had already reached the Late Joint Aperture Realm.
Throughout the Thousand Feathers Alliance, Yan Xuanji was a man of great renown. Yet the mirror image here was one he had left behind more than a century ago.
Late Joint Aperture Realm cultivators were figures of standing throughout the Thousand Feathers Alliance, but before True Person Haiyue, a Mountain Sea Realm powerhouse, they still fell somewhat short.
Thus, Yan Xuanji's mirror image remained within the Haiyue Grotto-heaven and had not been deliberately removed.
Only that person who had broken through to the Mountain Sea Realm decades ago had had his mirror image removed from the Haiyue Grotto-heaven by True Person Haiyue, as a sign of respect.
Chen Fei had known before coming that the Haiyue Grotto-heaven kept mirror images, yet he had come anyway.
