The Universe is Innately Just - Chapter 289
He glanced downward, in shock, at the many holes that had appeared in his torso. Image of what had just happened surfaced on his mind as a bitter expression appeared on his lips, he opened them slowly as a mumbled escaped his lips.
He couldn’t understand how Akainmhar had managed to keep that version of his move hidden. He felt as though he had once again fallen inside of one of his schemes.
As for Akainmhar, it was completely obvious for him to only use attack now, as it could have been dodged if Thol’Yr had his wings. He could only count on the lightning-fast fist pounds he had unleashed on the thoracic cage of the beast.
His fluid manipulation of Sun Bloom had been unexpected from Thol’Yr as he had only accepted the loss of his wings with the sacrifice of the red haired man’s right hand.
It was as though his pride had swallowed that damage, and had simply come to accept that someone on par with his own strength had outsmarted him.
But now, as he saw the damage dealt by the same hand that had plucked him from his mighty wings, made his mind fall into an abyss. His body injured body glistened, the numerous fist sized holes traversing his entire trunk began closing as his flesh squirmed and grew. The glistening intensified as his body began turning into light element, and before his long his flesh had disappeared.
The form Thol’Yr took was difficult to describe. A strange mix between of volatile light element chaotically moved in an unknown pattern, yet even in those circ.u.mstance his facial feature and the frame of his body managed to stay similar to his fleshly body.
“You won’t touch me anymore.”, he mumbled as though tired of trying to fight the earthling in front of him in his own terrain.
Having been hidden twice by the same technique, he could no longer accept that outcome as he completely transformed into an untouchable volatile body of light. He rose in the air rapidly, as the red haired man tried following him as the leg under him made him stop in his track.
He felt that the attack he had unleashed, added the damage he had to take from the dense jungle of shredded space had made him push through the limit of his endurance. The blood essence in his body didn’t take long to kick in, as he
“You are annoying, Earthling.”, his intent spread in the wind in a slow tone. “This is no longer a fight between the two of us, as the entire surroundings of the city will turn into dust. You will, sadly, just be collateral damage from that.”
He mumbled as his figure rose high, and his intent spread in the distance, notably in the north wall where he had ordered the beast to amass. The small amount of particle like light element forming his face moved, as he couldn’t help but understand why the army of thousand humongous evolved creature had stopped attacking the city.
“It had begun…”, he mumbled as his eyes opened wide in surprise. He noticed a potent slaughter aura intertwined with a strong sword intent, and couldn’t help but began laughing widely. His eyes turned toward the youth standing in the ground down from his position, and couldn’t help but thank him in his mind.
“The process had begun…”, he mumbled as he launched a crystalline yet terrifying gaze toward the red haired man. Before turning into light, he disappeared quickly in the distance, with the north wall as the destination of his flight.
“Crap!”, exclaimed Akainmhar as he smelled that going to happen when he noticed that Thol’Yr was abandoning the fight. He ordered his blood essence treasure to stop sending him potent blood essence, the Spirit of the treasure agreed immediately as Akainmhar soon felt that the stream of blood essence appearing had thinned.
His shoulders dropped low as the tension he had acc.u.mulated slipped through his pores for a split second. The numerous injuries lying on his body began disappearing as his powerful vitality kicked in, and less than dozens of seconds had passed since the disappearance of Thol’Yr, that scab had already begun forming on the smallest injuries.
“This smells bad for the city…”, he exclaimed toward Fell as he began massaging his tense muscles that soon softened into noodle strings. And just had he was continued to ask another thing to the silent youth, his ears picked up a chilling whisper that made him raise his guard.
“Who are you?”
He turned toward the origin of the voice and immediately understood what had been wrong with his perception of the black haired young man. But, now, the many small details that had comes to his mind before gathered into a cohesive thought in a form akin to a mental puzzle.
“You aren’t Fell anymore, right?”, Akainmhar asked with a thoughtful gaze toward the black haired youth. A pensive gaze appeared in his mind, as his sight didn’t quit the surroundings of the black haired young man.
“Well… This can sometimes happen when you fight too much…”, he mumbled as he remembered numerous times in his life that people had forgotten him probably because they’ve been punched too hard in the skull, sometimes by him, sometimes by the hands of others. A lot of them were intentional, but incidents always happened in fights.
His thought focused on the black haired cultivator in front of him. “It seems as though that wasn’t the case with you…”, he mumbled as he thought about the memory loss, symptom of regular traumatic brain injuries. “It is as though your soul had drastically changed…”, he mumbled in deep thoughts as he felt the powerful different energy in Fell’s body.
His three path pulsed as they released waves of their oncoming breakthrough. “Sadly, I’ve never met someone who lost his memory due to a cultivation breakthrough…”.
“And I don’t see any physical injuries in your physical body.”
Fell listened to the man, as he listed the numerous events that might have happened. But he was, innately aware of a fact, that his soul had been damaged to the point where he had nearly disappeared. Unfortunately, the past event before his awakened had completely disappeared. The only thing that wasn’t lost, was the laws, and techniques that had materialized into physical entities in his Soul Palace.
And his undying sword intent that had been passed down from the purple sky that had mixed with the last remnant of his ego body’s intent. His sword technique, had changed, but their essence survived due to them being having been deeply ingrained in his very own body. They changed, as he used the spatial element as the basis of their operations, and the strong lightning running down his meridians.
He couldn’t help but agree with the red haired man that his body had been completely undamaged. And the moment he had made contact with it, although he hadn’t felt a sensation of not being whole, he nonetheless felt whole the moment he emerged inside of his Soul Palace.
The red haired man shut his lips, his eyes glinted as he could only see the event explained with an extremely rare resource, or a blessing from the heavenly law themselves.
Little did the man know that Fell had access to both of those numerous rare events that could explain his memory loss. Nonetheless, he didn’t speak anymore about the reason behind his memory loss, as he felt that a change of expression the black haired man. He opened his lips quietly, as he pointed at the distance with a straight finger.
“You probably guessed it, but that guy there, is your enemy.”, he hand changed as he showed the massive walls of the city surrounded by a transparent blue energy bubble that sheltered it from anyone entering.
“And You, you come from that city. I don’t know much about your life, but if you’re somewhat interested, look for a certain Sifiso! He might recognize you, he lives in the center of the city behind those walls, in sympathetic slums the size of a town.”
The youth’s glinted with the clearing clouds as his eyes changed, he felt the need to go to that place, and to see that man named Sifiso.
But, he continued listening as he wanted to know more about the current situation. On his own, he had comes to a rough understanding of the global situation of the city, but he still judged it as being superficial and flawed.
In the end, he had only acted due to the conversation the entity were having between each other, and without them, he might have still been clueless in the areas around the city.
“However, you can’t do that right now. As you’ve probably understood from that light bastard before, that he planned to erase that city from the face of the planet.”, he added in a casual tone.
“Despite his actual strength, he seemed to be quite lacking for someone in the Third Realm.”, he thought with a sigh. Feeling that the fight hadn’t completely pushed him through his limits, and the wall separating him from the mythical Third Realm had only parched open.
