Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques-Chapter 122 - 119: Absolute Doom

After Chen Lingyun finished her report to the Seal Node command headquarters and learned of their plan, her expression grew grim.

'This is a General Level being. With just us, how long can we possibly hold him off?'

"Tang Chen... he sacrificed himself. At the critical moment, he blocked the Celestial Demon People's attack, saving two Martial Artists..."

She had just put down the transceiver when she heard someone murmuring the terrible news.

'Tang Chen... sacrificed himself to save others?'

At that moment, her heart grew heavy. She knew he was a warrior worthy of respect.

And there was no telling how many more sacrifices like this would follow.

Everyone on the front lines, every staff member right here, faced the possibility of sacrifice.

"Everyone, look! That's..."

Just then, a staff member monitoring the battlefield pointed at a screen and cried out in surprise.

In an instant, everyone's attention snapped to the monitor.

They saw it clearly on the screen. A faint but definite light began to radiate from Zhou Yuanjue and Jiang Jiushan, who were trapped in the grip of the giant arm formed from Celestial General Chief Ba's Life Magnetic Field.

The light constantly expanded and shifted. The surrounding dust and air, as if drawn in by some unseen force, began to coalesce around them, sketching out a pair of hazy silhouettes.

One was a giant bird with wings spread for flight; the other, a Bodhisattva sitting cross-legged, its hands forming a sealing technique.

It was a power similar to the formidable Life Magnetic Field wielded by Celestial General Chief Ba.

"This is..."

"Saint Awakening?!"

······

······

「On the battlefield.」

SCREECH!!

At that moment, the soaring Flaming Giant Bird became incredibly solid, suffused with an indescribable spiritual quality, as if it were truly stepping out of illusion and into reality.

Meanwhile, the Ksitigarbha Dharma Image chanted the Six-Word Mantra. Its magnificent voice broke through the boundary of illusion, resounding in the physical world and vibrating through the surrounding air and dust.

The demonic shadow manifested by Celestial General Chief Ba could no longer restrain the two men with its hands alone. The incarnations of their will were slowly but surely breaking free from its grip.

"They broke through?!"

At that moment, Celestial General Chief Ba also realized what was happening to them.

It was a world-altering transformation. Their spirits were fusing completely with their bodies, using this process to shatter the invisible shackles that bind all living things and ascend to a higher realm.

His expression darkened instantly.

'To break through to Saint Awakening in the middle of a battle... and both of them at once...'

'The wills of these two humans are truly extraordinary.'

'Human Martial Artists...'

As he watched the two figures, his eyes narrowed, seemingly dredging up fragments of unpleasant memories.

'This kind of will... it's truly disgusting, right to the core.'

However, despite his inner shock, his face showed no trace of panic.

'In this world, nothing can be accomplished in an instant.'

'These two have only just grasped the key. Even after breaking their shackles, they'll need a long time to nourish their spirits and bodies before they can truly wield the full power of the Saint Awakening Realm.'

'Right now, they are a far cry from that!'

"I admit, your wills are indeed remarkable."

"But it is far from enough. Given time, you might have become existences on par with the Southern Guardian, Liehong Mountain. A pity that today, you will both die by my hand!"

Celestial General Chief Ba's face was like ice as his hands suddenly struck multiple acupressure points on his body in quick succession.

THUMP!

A dull, rapid heartbeat echoed from his chest. His blood churned like a raging river, so violently that crimson stains began to seep through his skin.

He was beginning to extract the body's maximum potential, at the cost of destroying this temporary vessel.

This was a trump card he had been saving to deal with the Southern Guardian and assault the Seal Node. But given the circumstances, he couldn't worry about that now. He had to eliminate the two who had just broken their limits as quickly as possible.

The demonic shadow behind him grew increasingly solid, its form now covered in hideous armor. It radiated an aura of mystery and terror, like a legendary Demon God descending upon the world.

This was Chief Ba's Celestial Demon True Form. With his level of power, had he appeared in ancient times and revealed this form, he would have been mistaken for a descended Divine Spirit. The people of that unenlightened age would have prostrated themselves in worship, offering him bloody sacrifices and performing terrifying rites, pleasing his heart with death and fear.

His Life Magnetic Field condensed and transformed in the hands of the Celestial Demon True Form, creating two long, narrow blades that seemed capable of evoking a human's most primal emotions.

Celestial General Secret Skill: the Seven Emotions Blade.

It is said that anger harms the liver, worry harms the spleen, grief harms the lungs, and fear harms the kidneys...

A person's seven emotions are inextricably linked to their bodily functions.

The Seven Emotions Blade was a terrifying skill designed specifically to destroy a person's internal organs. An ordinary person struck by this blade would have their Life Magnetic Field utterly shattered. Though no wound would be visible on the surface, their internal organs would have already failed, placing them beyond any hope of salvation.

"Slash!"

With a low shout from Celestial General Chief Ba, the demonic shadow behind him slashed down violently as his own body sprang into motion.

It was a speed that surpassed the limits of a normal person's reactions!

If not for the fact that this body wasn't a perfect match for him and hadn't been nourished over a long period, his physical capabilities would be even more terrifying.

In the eyes of Zhou Yuanjue and Jiang Jiushan, Chief Ba's figure became a barely perceptible blur.
