The two demon hunters were clearly looking at , their fearful expressions betrayed their recognition.
As a novice of the Great Success Rank who challenged Great Impermanence, my appearance should be known by many at the Luoshan Headquarters. Being recognized shouldn’t be a big deal. But at the mont, I was in a state that made it hard to be recognized by strangers. This was one of the basic abilities of Great Impermanence.
The reason why there’s so little information on Lushan Great Impermanence’s King Zhuanlun is because he doesn’t like to be known, and the thoughts of Great Impermanence could influence others. If you inherently dislike being studied by others, people will unconsciously avoid studying you. I couldn’t pinpoint Ming Zhuo’s location, which could likely be due to Ming Zhuo’s character of disliking being investigated. And now, I didn’t really want to attract attention either, so people walking near would "not see" my "well-known" face.
However, this was just a temporary thought, and not a particularly strong one, so if there were people who already knew , or those who had a purposeful awareness of , or those with strong Perception, they could still pick out from the crowd. The effect was similar to the pendant props that Fu Feng gave to and Mazao at the Fufeng Base.
The two demon hunters belonged to the category of "people who already knew ".
I recognized them too; they were the ones who had joined forces against Mazao under the orders of Lu Youxun in the past, who I let go back to Luoshan to spread word of my deeds and challenge.
Since they had followed my orders to the letter, I had no intention of dredging up past grievances with them today—that would be too petty. But even though that was my line of thought, they might not be able to let go so easily.
They’d probably stumbled upon by chance while walking on the road and plunged into terror upon discovering , soone they had offended before. I wonder if this chance encounter was guided by so deeper connection. I didn’t care what they thought, but the opportunity was perfect. Since they were Ming Zhuo’s subordinates, they might know his current whereabouts.
After becoming Great Impermanence, luck tends to improve, and maybe this was a manifestation of my improved luck.
I took a step towards them.
Seeing this, the two demon hunters, as if severely startled, turned and ran. One of them even took out a Spell artifact from his pocket, which emitted strange mana fluctuations, causing the ground under his feet to suddenly act like a swamp trying to suck him in.
It’s not necessary to make such a fuss; I wouldn’t kill them in broad daylight... No, wait, so of their colleagues seed to have been casually killed by in plain sight, and in their eyes, I might not be soone who cares about daylight when killing.
I couldn’t let them get away—a thought erged in my mind, and then I reached out my hand.
Just like when I grabbed the glass bottle on the train before, my hand ignored spatial distance and reached towards the demon hunter who didn’t use a Spell artifact. The movent itself was incredibly slow, but because it ignored the spatial distance, it reached the demon hunter’s shoulder in an instant.
The demon hunter exploded into a burst of speed several tis faster than normal, and his whole body appeared jointless as he tried to dodge in a strange manner. Nonetheless, my palm accurately grabbed his shoulder. I didn’t aim specifically at him because there was no need to aim at all, my move this ti was "Guaranteed Hit."
Elents as abstract as "causality" and "fate" which are derived from natural elents can now be directly touched and influenced by my hands. Just as the natural world is affected by my Fatian Xiangdi, these elents automatically adjust according to my will. In other words, as long as I desire it, an "absolute destiny of being caught by " will naturally form on my opponent.
Or if I so wish, my attack landing on the opponent can also automatically beco an attribute that restrains them, or rather, the opponent becos vulnerable to —which is sowhat similar to the properties of Zhu Shi’s "Buzhou Mountain" in creating weaknesses in enemies. If pushed to the extre, it might beco "an attack that will inevitably penetrate the enemy," which when combined with the earlier "Guaranteed Hit," would be Divine Spear’s "Guaranteed Hit and Penetration."
I seem to gradually understand what Mr. Zhu said. The demon hunters’ spells and abilities are rely poor imitations of Great Impermanence. For birds, flying is natural, but humans can only achieve the dream of flying through advanced technology or superpowers.
Demon hunters would even give their abilities and spells fancy nas. If applied to and other Great Impermanence, such behavior would be as redundant as naming the movent of swinging arms and stepping feet while walking like a Killing Move.
I tossed the demon hunter aside, and the other who tried to escape by burrowing underground experienced a loss of control. Just as his feet began to sink into the ground, which had turned swampy, the ground twitched and violently spat him out.
"Spell... Spellcasting failed!?" He scread in disbelief.
Of course, it would fail. He seed to be manipulating natural elents to aid his escape, a move akin to when a Monarch tries to arrest soone, and the person being arrested suddenly beseeches nearby guards for help to flee; how could that possibly work.
The two demon hunters seed a bit too slow to react to what they were dealing with. It wasn’t that they were ignorant; just as not feeling mana fluctuations doesn’t prove soone to be Impermanence, there’s also the possibility that the person is just very good at concealing their presence, just like the skills I have demonstrated could potentially be mimicked by regular demon hunters through spells and abilities. They would probably have a hard ti imagining that I had beco Lushan Great Impermanence in such a short span of ti.
However, upon seeing this scene, Weichi’s expression suddenly underwent a drastic change.
The commotion here was also witnessed by other passersby on the road, with many eyes converging on this spot. So people seed to recognize Weichi, a well-known figure who for so reason appeared here, while others were confused by the conflict unfolding before them. But in the demon hunters-frequented Luoshan Headquarters, this level of altercation didn’t seem all that rare, and most people’s gazes moved away with an attitude of "better not get involved in trouble."
"Are these two... minions of Ming Zhuo?"
Mr. Zhu seed to know the ins and outs of these two demon hunters, frowning as he did.
Just as I was about to ask them if they knew Ming Zhuo’s whereabouts, Weichi quietly moved closer to . He glanced around first, then leaned in, his face showing hesitation, and whispered in a very low voice: "—Three?"
Huh? Three?
Suddenly being approached with such an inquiring tone, my first reaction was confusion. Three... What did he an by that? By his tone, it seed like he was addressing ... The mont I realized this, I imdiately made further associations.
My code na in the Void Realm is "Number Three."
Is he a mber of the Void Realm?
In the current state of the Void Realm, not to ntion myself, the real identities of numbers one, two, four, and six have all been revealed, with only number five and seven remaining unknown. And since number seven is clearly a female, if Weichi were an Angel Envoy of the Void Realm, he could only be number five.
But how did he deduce that I was number three? Was it related to the abilities I had just displayed?
Or, was this a "fishing" tactic, and he wasn’t actually sure I was number three?
While pondering, I countered back: "Five?"
Weichi restored the original distance between us and silently nodded.
To think that I would encounter another Angel Envoy of the Void Realm in such a situation!
I recalled the actions of Divine Light, number six in the Void Realm, who used the Divine Seal Fragnt as bait, intending to assemble other Angel Envoys at the Luoshan Headquarters...
Could it be that the current Luoshan Headquarters has attracted even more Angel Envoys from the Void Realm?
