Chapter 212
This time it missed as well, but ice crystals formed in the void.
Through them, I could see the glowing eyes of the Thought Entity.
I immediately spun my body and thrust out my foot.
Thwack-!
It connected, but weakly. That’s fine. I kept the Thought Entity in my sight and predicted all its movements and every movement that would unfold.
The Thought Entity’s sword struck down like lightning.
I twisted to the side. A bit short. I drew out my internal energy and kicked off the ground.
Slash-!
My thigh was cut lengthwise. That’s fine.
Purple internal energy, extending plum blossoms.
I analyzed all of Cheong Mun’s movements in my head.
When swinging the sword, the shoulder leans back.
When thrusting the sword, the shoulder tilts forward.
When using movement techniques, the direction of movement always matches the angle of the turning ankle.
When evading, the back foot withdraws, and the gaze looks downward.
Now.
The Thought Entity’s shoulder tilted forward.
The sword will thrust out, and the direction is… straight ahead.
I extended my left hand.
Crackle-!
Though I wasn’t injured thanks to the Buddha Hand Seal blocking it, my body slid backward with a strange sound.
Reaching the Heaven-Human Realm means humans evolve one step further.
It was fortunate I managed to block it, but in that brief moment, the Thought Entity’s ankle moved slightly to the right. A movement technique.
I concentrated power into my left hand to prevent it from moving.
Its body stopped abruptly.
For a brief moment, the Thought Entity’s shoulder twitched. It was the arm not holding the sword, and moving in this standoff situation meant.
Only one thing.
I raised my sword.
Whoosh-!!
The Thought Entity’s hand strike aimed at my neck was blocked by the sword.
I slid backward, and it also lost its sword.
Distance opened between the Thought Entity and me.
In this fleeting moment before it could move again, all kinds of martial arts flashed through my mind.
Which would be appropriate?
What would be most ideal?
Blood Demon Soaring Heaven Art, Tae Heo Immortal Blood Heart Method, Complete Records of Ten Thousand Snows, Taiji Fist, Blood Spirit Horn Method, Thousand Hand Divine Art… Yeok Geun Gyeong.
My eyes flashed.
There were five martial arts from Darma that I received along with it.
Immortal Vajra Palm, Tathagata Palm Wind, Space-Time Fist, Eighteen Arhat Hands, Shadowless Movement.
All were supreme Martial God Grade techniques, so even using Heo Hyeon Energy, they were very burdensome for my Five Energy Harmonizing Origin body.
But thanks to the Buddha Hand Seal on my left hand, there were two martial arts I could perform.
I didn’t think any further.
The moment I made my decision, air currents began surging from my left hand.
Just as Darma had done in the past, my ordinary palm began transforming into a vessel that could contain the entire world.
“Tathagata Palm Wind.”
Just one word, a voice quieter than a whisper, yet that sound shook heaven and earth.
My palm pushed forward. It appeared to be an ordinary palm technique, but within it was condensed the principles of heaven and earth.
Energy expanded as if exploding from a single point.
Whoosh—!
An invisible palm wind shot toward the Thought Entity.
It wasn’t wind. Though weak, it was the Buddhist truth bursting from the palm of the Tathagata that embraced the three thousand great worlds.
The Thought Entity’s eyes widened greatly.
Bang—!!
The palm wind struck the Thought Entity’s body. Its body slid backward as its chest was deeply carved in.
The Thought Entity immediately raised its head. The Thought Entity’s eyes filled with extreme killing intent were weapons in themselves, but.
I didn’t care.
The Thought Entity’s body swayed in mid-air, regaining balance.
If the Heaven-Human Realm collapsed at this level, then I deserved to die.
Purple internal energy surged up from the Thought Entity’s body. Nature responded and the surrounding stone chamber shook madly.
Just as it was about to charge.
The Buddha Hand Seal on my left hand began blazing brilliantly.
Now.
The moment when my past life’s enlightenments and the enlightenments of the genius Darma, whose face I never saw, merged into one.
The martial art was completed.
Immortal Vajra Palm.
My entire left arm glowed golden and became hard as diamond. It was not a hand but like Shakyamuni’s vajra symbolizing an immortal being.
It immediately cut through the void and approached the Thought Entity.
Whooom—!
The air vibrated and tore.
The moment the Thought Entity’s sword and my left palm met.
Crash-!!
With a thunderous sound, the Thought Entity’s sword was knocked upward, and the sound of bones shattering echoed from its arm with a cracking noise.
My arm also felt numb.
Tsk.
I had intended to completely sever the Thought Entity’s arm, but it seemed insufficient.
The Thought Entity’s eyes flashed as it moved again.
Its shoulder leaned back. It was swinging.
As soon as I turned my head to the side, I drew Heo Hyeon Energy to its limit.
My pupils turned pure white and the world before me was dyed with ice.
Heavenly Snow Domain.
The surrounding air became rapidly cold, and the Thought Entity’s sword that grazed past my face and its body were all frozen, but.
Crack!
With the sound of breaking glass, all the ice scattered and plum blossoms bloomed again.
That’s fine.
There was no way to bind a Heaven-Human Realm master.
An instant.
This instant was important.
The undisturbed Thought Entity’s sword suddenly created an illusion of splitting into seven branches. It attacked me like seven petals of a plum blossom, and from my limited knowledge, it was definitely the final form of the Thirty-Six Plum Blossom Swords, Seven Plum Spirits.
My pupils flashed.
One primordial energy connects heaven and earth, through eternal vast skies I walk alone.
The primordial energy connects to heaven and earth, through the eternal long void I go alone.
Heaven-Defying Vast Sword.
Heaven-Defying Path Breaking.
Slow yet fast.
I swung the Jinwha Cheonryeong Sword.
The Heo Hyeon Energy that bloomed from that place soon extended toward all the surrounding qi, and so naturally.
Zzzzeeeeooooong-!!
It burst with a thunderous roar and decomposed the Thought Entity’s Seven Plum Blossom Spirits.
Just like mine, the opponent’s martial arts or techniques, all of those things are made of qi.
Heaven-Defying Breaking Waves, the second form of the latter half of the Heaven-Defying Vast Sword, has the core principle of nullifying the opponent’s attacks, and naturally the Thought Entity, left with only killing intent, was greatly flustered by this unprecedented situation.
Using martial arts that shouldn’t be used, no, couldn’t be used at merely the Five Energy Harmonizing Origin level, my entire body creaked and groaned.
My muscles were screaming in pain, and my dantian was fluctuating, telling me to stop.
Even the Heo Hyeon Energy, skilled in recovery and regeneration, was becoming sluggish, my vision was tinted red, and my body’s reactions were slowing down like a broken machine.
However, I couldn’t let this moment slip away.
(The defying sword breaks the azure heaven, all laws can be destroyed).
The sword of defiance shatters the azure heaven, so all laws can be destroyed.
(One sword pierces ten thousand ages, gods and demons all vanish).
One sword pierces through ten thousand ages, so even gods and demons all disappear.
I powerfully swung the Jinwha Cheonryeong Sword gripped tightly in both hands.
Heaven-Defying Vast Sword .
One Vast Sword .
A streak of light flashed in the Thought Entity’s eyes.
Slash-!
The Thought Entity stared blankly at its own right arm soaring toward the sky.
No matter how much of a Thought Entity it was, this situation was beyond the realm of understanding.
Who would have thought?
That someone at the Flame Qi Four Stages would fight against a warrior of the Four Stages of Heaven and Earth.
But if someone who had reached closest to heaven more than anyone else became a child overnight, how far would it be possible?
If they reached the Five Energy Harmonizing Origin.
They could cut off at least one arm of a Heaven-Human Realm master.
Just like now.
And at this moment, all of the Thought Entity’s senses were focused on me. I had intended it that way.
That’s why he looked puzzled as I retreated to the side with all my strength.
According to his thinking, it should be time to attack.
It should be time to charge forward, not retreat.
In that situation beyond common sense, the Thought Entity’s gaze shifted to the side.
The man who had been left alone.
Sim Mun-ryong swung his sword.
Slash-!
Space was cut and the Thought Entity’s head soared toward the sky.
