Episode 11 – Graveyard of the Gods Chapter 36 – One Against a Million
“Brush!”
Linley was like streams of light, traveling through the passageway, his speed soaring to its limit. However, in terms of speed, the Abyssal Blade Devils that were comparable to Desiree and Bebe were one step ahead of Linley. Those Abyssal Blade Demons were getting closer and closer.
With eyes as red as fire, Linley was reciting a magic incantation under his breath.
“Whoosh!”
Linley’s flight direction abruptly shifted.
Surprisingly, he turned in a different direction and directly scurried diagonally towards the bottom of the earth. There were actually quite a few Abyssal Blade Demons chasing towards Linley down below. Linley went downwards, the Abyssal Blade Devils below went upwards, and almost in the blink of an eye, the two parties were about to meet.
“Roar~~” the Abyssal Blade Devils below immediately let out a roar.
The group of Abyssal Blade Demons that were still chasing along Linley’s original direction immediately turned downwards, while Linley was close to the Abyssal Blade Demons below, and those Abyssal Blade Demons almost simultaneously pulled out their back swords like lightning, but a cold aura swept through Linley’s eyes.
Endless wind elements gathered violently.
“Die.”
“Snort ~~” very suddenly, a four or five meter wide talk of cyan ‘subdimensional blades’ appeared out of nowhere in front of Linley, and then flew directly towards those charging abyssal blade demons below.
Seeing the subdimensional blade, those abyssal blade demons immediately tried to dodge in fear.
However, the Sublime Blade was too fast.
“Snort ~~” the metal body was directly cut into pieces, and under Linley’s spiritual control, that ‘Sublime Blade’ slashed along an arc, instantly cutting dozens of Abyssal Blade Demons into pieces at every turn, and the other Abyssal Blade Demons dodged in fear.
“Whew!”
Linley, on the other hand, took the opportunity to charge straight down, rushing underground along the gap created by the ‘Subterranean Blade’.
This move, the Blade of Sublimity, was only effective when dealing with a small number of Profound Abyssal Blade Demons. Once there were thousands of Abyssal Blade Demons, how many could the Sublime Blade kill? This was also the reason why Linley chose to make an abrupt turn and fly towards the bottom.
He made an abrupt turn, but he also temporarily distanced himself from the Abyssal Blade Demons behind him.
“I can escape for a moment. But I can’t run away forever.”
As Linley fled downwards, he was also thinking of ways to ‘escape’ in his mind, “If I could instantly fire the ‘Subdimensional Blade’, then that would be great, and even if there were more Abyssal Blade Demons, I’d let them all die. ”
In an instant, a hint of delusion surged in Linley’s heart.
Instantaneous ‘Sublime Blade’?
It was just a daydream, and Linley knew that it was unrealistic.
“Eh?”
While scurrying towards the ground at breakneck speeds, Linley suddenly had a flutter in his heart, “Sublime Blade?”
Regarding the principle behind the formation of the terrifyingly forbidden magical ground of the ‘Blade of Subterraneous Dimension’, Linley wasn’t quite sure. Linley wasn’t quite sure. He only knew how to gather elements through magical power to form this ‘Sublime Blade’. However, at this moment, Linley recalled the scene where he had cast the ‘Sublime Blade’.
The Dimensional Blade, to be precise, was the ‘Wind Blade’ in its extreme state.
When Linley used his spiritual energy to control the ‘Sublime Blade’ with all his might to turn it in a slight arc, he also realized that countless winds were rotating within the Sublime Blade. Either fast or slow, along a strange pattern, and in the end, it was surprisingly able to cause a terrifying power that cut through space.
“Or fast? Or slow?”
Linley hadn’t thought about it in the past, but now he found a place of doubt, “The faster this Dimensional Blade is, the better it is, so why are there winds inside that seem to be slow?”
“Not right.”
Linley recalled carefully.
Countless winds flowed within the Dimensional Blade. It wasn’t actually slow, it just produced the effect of the ‘slow realm’, seemingly slow but actually fast. Wind blades of different characteristics were however combined into one, forming the ‘Sublime Blade’. What principle was this?
“Fast realm? Slow realm? Sublime Blades ……”
The scene of the ‘Rhythm of the Wind’ being performed appeared again in Linley’s mind, which was causing the Violet-Blooded Softsword to constantly change into the ‘fast’ and ‘slow’ realms at the same time, creating diametrically opposed results and causing the space to creating a vibration that caused an air blade to appear at the edge of the Violetblood Softsword.
The scene of ‘Ten Thousand Swords in One’ reappeared in Linley’s mind.
At the time, he was studying this move. Linley was puzzled as to why the shadows of ten thousand swords were cast at a fast realm. Fused into one. In the end, it caused the effect of ‘space standing still’? The fast realm and the slow realm, why would they be able to replace each other? At the time, Linley didn’t understand. However, it was the simulation of the ‘Mother Emperor’s’ move that had created this move.
In reality, the mystery of why the thousands of sword shadows of the ‘fast realm’ created the ‘space-still’ ‘ten thousand swords in one’ was something that Linley didn’t understand.
“Sublime Blade …… Wind Earth Rhythm …… Ten Thousand Swords in Unity ……”
Linley’s mind swiftly scratched through a scene, and a certain arcane mist in the wind elemental law seemed to be slowly dissipating in front of Linley at the moment.
There was something in Linley’s mind that he seemed to understand.
It was as if he had touched something, yet he didn’t seem to understand anything.
Linley hadn’t even noticed that there were two Abyssal Blade Demons and he was getting closer and closer behind him. At the moment, Linley was completely immersed in that special state. The two Abyssal Blade Demons were also puzzled, normally they would have tried to escape before they even got close to Linley.
But this time, Linley was actually flying in a straight line, not changing direction in the slightest. The abyssal blade demons were faster than Linley! Flying in a straight line, they could naturally catch up.
“Swoosh~~” the ear-piercing shrill whistling sound finally woke Linley up, while at the same time two battle blades slashed directly over.
Linley’s back was immediately startled into a cold sweat, the purple blood soft sword in his hand immediately swung out, Linley didn’t notice in the slightest that his sword was neither the ‘Rhythm of the Wind’ nor the ‘Unity of Ten Thousand Swords’, it was just a seemingly ordinary sword.
“Puff!”
As if slicing off tofu.
Linley’s violet-blooded soft sword lightning-like sliced through the bodies of the two great Abyssal Blade Demons, and both of these two Abyssal Blade Demons directly snapped into two.
“This?”
Linley was surprised, although this Abyssal Blade Demon’s defense wasn’t considered to be at its peak, even if one were to execute the ‘Rhythm of the Wind’, one would still need to spend all their strength in order to split the Abyssal Blade Demon in half. But just now, he seemed to have very easily, split two Abyssal Blade Demons in half with a single sword.
“Just now… ……”
Linley couldn’t help but recall his unconscious sword just now.
“Ah!”
Linley’s eyes instantly glazed over.
The arcane mysteries of the wind elemental laws that had originally appeared hazy in his mind were now as clear as if he had lifted the clouds to see the moon, and his mind was clear.
“The rhythm of the wind? The unity of ten thousand swords? The Blade of Sublimity?”
Linley unexpectedly laughed out loud, “Fast realm? Slow realm? The opposite of fast and slow? Haha, wrong. It’s all wrong, the fast realm and the slow realm are all the same, the same!”
Linley’s figure moved abruptly.
It was as if it were a gust of wind. It seemed to float lightly and slowly, but in an instant, it was a thousand meters away.
“Spatial superimposition? Spatial misalignment? Spatial stagnation? Spatial stasis?”
Linley laughed freely.
“It’s that dragonman.”
A large number of Abyssal Blade Demons had discovered Linley.
“Kill.”
With a roar, a large number of Abyssal Blade Demons swung their blades at the same time, their powerful blade qi slashing towards Linley, the blade qi streaked across the land, the metal land was split apart at all costs, although most of the blade qi didn’t slice into Linley, there was still some of the blade qi that gathered towards Linley.
“Buzz!”
Where the blade qi gathered, the metal land turned into pieces.
“He’s dead!”
“Eh?”
Suddenly the Abyssal Blade Demons were shocked.
Because Linley, who had originally been thousands of meters away, had just casually arrived in front of them in two flashes. They merely saw demonic purple light flash by, and their heads were thrown up.
“Fast realm, slow realm, haha, all misplaced in the wrong path!”
Linley laughed out loud, casually waving his sword to easily kill the Abyssal Blade Demons as he easily threw the Abyssal Blade Demons far away with a flash of his figure. In terms of speed, it was twice as fast as the Abyssal Blade Demons!
Too fast!
Even if that red Abyssal Blade Demon came over, it wasn’t half as fast as Linley was at this moment.
“At first, it was thought that fast realms cultivated to the extreme could become gods, and that slow realms cultivated to the extreme could also become gods. Right. It’s possible to become a god, but that’s going off the beaten path.”
Linley’s mind was enlightened at this moment, and he had a feeling of a high level of realization, “When the fast realm is cultivated to the extreme, and the slow realm is cultivated to the extreme, they’re ultimately going to move towards fusion …….”
In that hazy moment of comprehension, the fast realm contained arcana. The slow realm contained arcana that collided and combined in Linley’s mind. Diametrically opposed arcana. Reflecting each other. Linley’s comprehension of the two realms instantly increased by a large margin.
“Whether it’s fast. Or slow, both of these two realms actually belong to the wind elemental law of ……”
“Speed Upanishad!”
Linley’s purple-blooded soft sword slashed out randomly, at first glance as if it was slow, but at second glance, it was as fast as lightning. Observing from different angles revealed different results. On the blade of this Purple Blood Soft Sword, it even produced a light green-colored air blade similar to the ‘Blade of Sublime’.
With a random strike of the sword, space would vibrate, creating extremely small spatial cracks.
Linley’s random sword now already had some of the power of a ‘subdimensional blade’.
Linley’s figure quickly appeared everywhere, purple light flashing as a large number of Abyssal Blade Demon Earth heads were thrown flying.
“This move will be called the Speed Upanishad’s Sublime Slash!”
“Shoo.”
Linley’s body scurried directly out of the ground.
“Haha, he’s out, children, kill!”
That red Abyssal Blade Demon immediately ordered excitedly, only to hear countless shrill whistles as hundreds of thousands of Abyssal Blade Demons rushed down as if they were locusts, almost unanimously wielding their blade qi towards Linley.
However, Linley’s figure had already reached the center of their group.
Linley was like a gust of wind, appearing here and there, wherever his body passed, the heads of the Abyssal Blade Demons all flew up, in front of Linley, those Abyssal Blade Demons were powerless to resist.
Miserable screams and fearful hisses resounded continuously, and golden blood splattered everywhere.
In a very short amount of time, the dead Abyssal Blade Demons had already exceeded 100,000, all of the Abyssal Blade Demons were horrified, they had fighting spirit in the beginning, but now not a single ounce of it was left.
“No, it can’t be.”
Both red Abyssal Blade Demons cried out in fear.
However, with just a soft wind blowing, the head of one of the red Abyssal Blade Demons was thrown up, and Linley’s violet-blooded soft sword was placed on the neck of the other red Abyssal Blade Demon, his dark golden eyes looking at this red Abyssal Blade Demon blandly as he said indifferently, “What, still want to fight?”
“My lord spare my life.”
That red Abyssal Blade Demon immediately knelt down in terror.
As soon as this chieftain knelt, the countless Abyssal Blade Devils that had already been scared out of their wits by Linley all fell to the ground and knelt down.
On the eleventh level of the Graveyard of Gods, on the vast expanse of land, a large number of corpses fell to the ground, while countless Abyssal Blade Demons all knelt on the ground, terrified to the point where they didn’t even have the courage to raise their heads to look at them;the horrifying killings from just now had scared the guts out of them all.
The multitudes of Abyssal Blade Devils knelt and crouched, and on the pale, golden blood-stained earth, Linley was the only one standing.
“It’s a pity that I didn’t comprehend much of the fast realm or the slow realm.”
Linley was still recalling the Upanishads he had just comprehended in his mind, “Even if the two realms are now combined as one, and I comprehend the ‘Speed Upanishad’ of the Wind Elemental Laws, I’m still one step short of reaching the point of becoming a god.”
At this moment, Linley had already felt the threshold of the God Realm.
In fact, cultivating any of the fast realm and slow realm to the extreme was enough to become a lower god. And after that, completely fusing the two realms into one, forming the ‘Speed Upanishad’ to the extreme, one would be able to become a Mediate God.
The two realms appeared to be diametrically opposed, and to merge them was impossible to deduce, requiring an epiphany.
The higher the two realms were comprehended, the more it was like walking two opposite paths, the farther they went, the harder it would be for the two paths to merge together again.
Linley didn’t have a high level of comprehension in the two major realms, but instead, comprehending them was much less difficult.
Back then, Linley’s ‘Rhythm of Wind and Earth’ had consciously allowed the two realms to combine, while ‘Ten Thousand Swords in Unity’ had taken it a step further, and then after executing the ‘Blade of Sublimity’, he felt something in his heart, and had finally developed a thicker and thinner layer of understanding , comprehending the true ‘Speed Upanishad’.
His stance also instantly soared two or three times, and he also comprehended the strongest sword technique, the Sublime Slash!
“Know where the Godhead is, right?”
Linley looked down at the red Abyssal Blade Demon that was kneeling and trembling on the ground.
“Know, know.”
This red abyssal blade demon was afraid that Linley would kill him.
“Lead the way ahead.”
Linley said.
