Chapter 46 - Inner Demons (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The essence of martial arts was to become stronger, infinitely stronger, not for the sake of aggression.
It was to protect one’s dignity when one is being oppressed.
It was to protect one’s family and friends when they were in danger.
If martial arts did not have a constant meaning to maintain, no matter how strong one became, it would be like a good sword一reduced to a mere tool in the hands of others.
For the sake of the survival of the entire race, ants could carry things that were several times heavier than themselves.
For the sake of a belief, a martial artist could release energy that surpassed the limits of a human’s own body!
…
Wave after wave of energy was gradually released from Ye Xiao’s body. The rain could no longer get close and was maintained at a distance. Then, that distance became one foot, two feet, ten feet, a hundred feet, a thousand feet…
An invisible domain of spiritual energy was formed and proceeded to spread out continuously.
Not long after, some of the pedestrians who were walking could not help but stop.
“Hey! Why isn’t it raining anymore?”
“That’s right. Why did the rain suddenly stop? It’s still raining a mile away.”
A moment later, Ye Xiao stopped and raised his head. An even more powerful aura erupted in an instant and erupted toward the heavens, forcing away all the rain clouds in the sky.
Sunlight shone on Ye Xiao’s fair face. A rainbow appeared on the horizon. It was exceptionally beautiful and attracted many girls to stop and take photos.
Ye Xiao placed his hands behind his back and was immersed in the feeling of breaking through to the great sect.
Unexpectedly, he did not feel much joy.
Perhaps, after advancing, even his state of mind would also evolve. It could be said that the enhancement in his state of mind would bring about an improvement in his cultivation.
In short, after becoming a great grandmaster, his state of mind seemed to be much more mature than before.
When he transmigrated there previously, he died early due to the torment of his illness. Hence, his state of mind had already surpassed his peers by much. Now, his state of mind had already reached a level that ordinary people could not understand.
The Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery was activated. The spiritual energy of a great grandmaster altered the vision and thoughts of the people around him. At that moment, it was as if Ye Xiao had disappeared from their eyes.
Whether it was electronic devices or the sight and senses of living creatures… None of them could perceive Ye Xiao, even if he was standing right in front of them, face to face.
After the spiritual energy spread out, many places that were previously hidden were now extremely clear. It was as if Ye Xiao had placed cameras everywhere in Jianghai city.
“I can’t believe it’s there.”
Ye Xiao muttered and stepped out, walking toward the great river outside Jianghai city.
At that moment, he was no longer stepping on the ground, but floating in the air, treading through the atmosphere.
It was as if there were invisible stairs in the air that supported him as he moved forward.
That was one of the two signs of a great grandmaster一flying.
The other sign was the addition of spiritual energy to his attacks.
His speed was even faster than before.
Previously, Ye Xiao’s figure could still be seen with a careful look. Even more so if one stood at a high altitude and looked from a wide angle.
It was just like when a Bugatti was driven at its fastest speed, it was still unable to escape the human vision.
Now… Ordinary people were already completely oblivious to him. Martial artists above the fifth grade could only see an afterimage like those regular people who had seen Ye Xiao before he entered the great sect.
Unless they were above the grandmaster rank, it was impossible to clearly see his movements.
Moreover, so what if they saw it?
If they were not from the major sects, they would not be able to keep up with his movements. Even if they saw it, it would be of no use.
