Chapter 146 A Clue for What’s Next
Within his crumbling Field of Vision, Pung Hyeon questioned the incomprehensible reality.
‘Was I cut?’
It was impossible.
He knew that the Emperor’s Sword Form was deadly even to them. To block it, Pung Hyeon had enveloped his body with the Heavenly Qi Power they wielded. Yet, for it to pierce through even that and strike Pung Hyeon’s flesh—that shouldn’t have been possible with the Emperor’s Sword Form alone.
Heavenly Qi is the combination of Essence, Qi, and Spirit that allows life to thrive, and the fundamental Primordial Qi that forms all creation.
It was, quite literally, the source of all energies.
A power of a different caliber from those mere creatures who distinguished between their Pre-Heaven True Qi and Post-Heaven True Qi. It was the power that proved they were the chosen, true descendants.
Yet, he was cut.
Why?
‘Is it those eyes? Or that sword?’
Dragon’s Descended Eyes.
A sword forged from the remnants left by an Otherworldly Being.
Both were things that had escaped the touch of the Mother of All Creation.
Neutralizing Heavenly Qi Power wasn’t impossible. However, Pung Hyeon had certainly considered those variables and deployed his defensive barrier.
In terms of total power, Pung Hyeon was undoubtedly superior. So why was he cut?
‘I don’t know.’
Then, was he going to die? Just like Namgung Jin, would he fall to Namgung-woo again?
‘I can’t let that happen….’
