136: Sword skills at the level of unity of heaven and man
Han Lie's heart stirred, and the phantom of a blood-red tree, dozens of meters tall, instantly rose behind him, wavering between reality and illusion in the gentle breeze. However, anyone with discerning eyes noticed that what hung from its branches were not ripe fruits, but rather the impaled Celestial Pride of the Ten Thousand Races.
"What the hell is this?"
Everyone felt a shock in their hearts.
"An Anomaly!!"
There were indeed those who recognized it. The "All-Knowing" of the God-Demon Clan, her pupils uncontrollably widened, and she swallowed saliva to moisten her throat, which had become dry from extreme tension. She hastily exclaimed:
"This is an Anomaly!!!"
"But how is that possible?"
"How could this world acknowledge a lowly Human Race? They are clearly rats from the sewers, clearly despicable plagiarists, clearly people who don't understand this world at all!!"
"How could you be acknowledged?!"
She pointed at Han Lie and questioned him.
"And why should you be acknowledged?!"
Evidently, she simply couldn't accept it. As an All-Knowing, she was most skilled at researching and understanding all things in the world. Her greatest strength lay in her comprehension of the Dao. Yet, even she, upon arriving in this world, not only failed to achieve acknowledgment but also found that her own comprehension of the Dao had been imperceptibly weakened.
An idiotic Human Race!!
A race brimming with emotions and desires, always indulging in pleasure, how could they possess a deeper comprehension of the Dao than her?
"Why!!!"
"—Boom!!"
A massive branch, with Sea Hai's corpse wrapped at its front, like the fist of a treant, directly struck towards the "All-Knowing."
The speed was so fast,
that people couldn't react at all.
"Save me!!"
In an instant, the intelligent "All-Knowing" sensed the scent of death in the ethereal. She clearly discovered that her body, which had been quite nimble, now felt incredibly heavy!!
"Rules...!"
"You can actually impose rules on me, who exactly are you...?"
"Poof!!"
The branch of the large tree directly impaled her, not giving her another chance to speak. Nearby, the hastily arriving "Omnipotent" was utterly terrified. Although they had become independent individuals after birth, losing the help of the All-Knowing meant his progress in martial arts would definitely not be as fast as before.
"Ahhh!!!"
He frantically attacked the branch, only to find that it had transformed into a phantom, and all his attacks struck nothing but air.
But,
But it was clearly solid just now!!
"You...!"
He aimed his weapon at Han Lie, knowing that the key to breaking the situation lay with the other party. He crouched down, all his techniques clear in his mind. He could already imagine how he would approach the opponent, and he had already planned how to smash the opponent's head with a single punch. This was the confidence given to him by hundreds of thousands of battles.
But,
The moment he took a step, he found his body as heavy as if filled with lead, and then the branch had already materialized, sweeping towards him.
"Come on!!"
His arms shimmered with black light, that was his unique martial arts talent, the "All-Knowing" had researched the hardest metals in the Universe, and derived the physical utilization of matter.
He was ready to take the hit head-on!!
Upon seeing this,
The onlookers exclaimed in surprise!!
"What's going on with this Human Race!!"
"An Anomaly, what Anomaly?"
"It's terrifying, he killed God-Wisdom in just one encounter and forced Demon Calamity into a life-or-death crisis. The latter even used his trump card. Everyone knows that the move he's using now might lead to his body becoming metallic in the future. This... this..!"
Everyone began to re-examine Han Lie, and at that very moment, Han Lie's newly refreshed understanding was refreshed once more.
"—Boom!!"
The phantom of the great tree, extending from Han Lie's fist, struck directly onto Mo Yi's arm. The intense collision immediately erupted in a sonic boom, stirring up a massive cloud of thick smoke. As the smoke dispersed, Mo Yi stood dazed in place, his hands perfectly fine, but only he knew...
His most relied-upon physical body, honed through countless techniques and polished with innumerable treasures of the Universe, his supreme arms, had already...
lost sensation.
"What kind of power is this!!!"
"Power?"
Han Lie spread his hands.
"It's just ordinary power!"
Saying that,
He gently raised his hand.
The wave of his hand wasn't an apology, but rather, 'Little brother, you still need to practice.'
"Splat!!"
With one punch, Mo Yi's head shattered like a watermelon.
"I'll tell you what kind of power I have!"
Han Lie thought to himself, "It's just ordinary power, but multiplied by three hundred, and it weakens your defense by about 40%. How much exactly? Forget it, too lazy to calculate. Anyway, with this punch, you'll die no matter how I hit you!!"
Presumably,
Han Lie scanned everyone equally.
"!!!"
The remaining less than two hundred Celestial Pride of the Universe of Myriad Races were all shocked, thinking to themselves, 'Is this really a Human Race?'
Didn't they say that the Human Race were all despicable plagiarists, and that all the techniques they excelled at, all their applications of the Dao, were merely copied from their Ten Thousand Races?!
Then tell me,
What the hell is this?!!!
There was no time for them to think, be shocked, or ask questions. Han Lie waved his hand, and countless branches extended outwards, attacking every possible target!!
"Kill!"
The Celestial Pride of the Ten Thousand Races reacted quickly, knowing that in the current situation, either Han Lie died or they perished. Running was impossible; their ingrained dignity wouldn't allow them to flee.
Especially since the opponent was the Human Race!!!
"Attack him directly!"
Clearly, Han Lie's Anomaly existed between reality and illusion, and many people's attacks simply couldn't achieve a good effect against it. They weren't like Han Lie, able to precisely capture the changes between the real and the illusory in the elemental race.
"Attack him directly!"
Countless Ten Thousand Races rushed forward.
Han Lie immediately drew his saber, a perfectly ordinary saber. Many noticed that he was still using the same unremarkable machete from before. Logically, with his status, position, and wealth, he shouldn't be using a machete that costs dozens of dollars.
When Jijiang came, she asked him, "Do you want to switch to an unparalleled divine saber? You can choose freely from the entire planet's armory. If you're not satisfied, I can even buy you anything you like from the Universe. This time, Mom's paying!"
Han Lie refused,
It wasn't that he had pride, or that he didn't want to bend for five pecks of rice, but rather...
He had his own Dao,
Han Lie asked himself honestly.
"What kind of saber is this strike of mine?"
"Is it an ordinary machete?"
"No!!"
"That's what you think. This is the sharpest divine saber in the Universe, and when I strike this blow, you think it's an ordinary strike, but in my eyes..."
"It surpasses all techniques in this world!"
"With this one slash!!"
Han Lie was filled with an unyielding belief. The term Chang Sheng General seemed to glow, and brighter still were his eyes.
"This strike of mine!!"
"Even if a Martial God comes!!!"
"They must die for me!!"
Would a Martial God die?
If others heard these words, they would scoff. In reality, a Martial God certainly wouldn't die, but Han Lie declared, "I don't want what you think, I want what I think!!"
This is my Dao!!
"—Whoosh!"
With this one slash, a large area in front of him was cleared. Dozens of Celestial Pride of the Ten Thousand Races all looked down simultaneously, making gurgling sounds, and the next second their bodies split into two halves, deader than dead.
Among them were those skilled in physical defense, those skilled in mental illusion, those skilled in shifting between reality and illusion, and some were special elements. But no matter what they excelled at, or whether they could counter Han Lie, before this one slash,
They were, and could only be—
Wild pheasants outside the Mystic Realm.
