Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 150 Liberate yourself and break through the flow!
At this time, Byron and Cortes were standing at the Flayed Temple at the top of the pyramid.

Stab it--!
Even though Byron was three meters away, a sharp sword wind suddenly blew through his armor, leaving a long and narrow shallow mark.

Even though the blue flames were flowing, the armor instantly returned to its original state.

Byron immediately realized that the nature of the wind had been completely changed.

Even if a real piece of paper was here, it would no longer dance with the wind, but would be cruelly cut into pieces by the opponent's sword wind.

The next moment, the stone roof of the temple was instantly cut into a perfect circle by the sword light, and the two men fell down together.

This enclosed building has also become the most favorable home ground for the Swift Swordsman to perform.

Then Byron was completely surrounded by the "ritual circle".

clang clang clang.
In an instant, Byron felt that there were sword lights all around him.

The spear in his hand turned into a sword but was still struggling. Even if he could barely avoid the most lethal thrust, he was still cut and sparks flew everywhere.

Even the flesh under the armor was injured from time to time, and the blood quickly soaked the horse's back.

Obviously, in this state, it is not difficult for the strange swift sword to cut through steel with one sword.

The [Supreme Art] that was like a mathematical formula, combined with the "flow" that could control oneself 100%, allowed Cortes to find the simplest "formula" for attack.

Even though Byron's [Storm Swordsmanship] is faster than his, the power of man and horse combined is stronger than his.

It was like a problem that seemed insurmountable to ordinary people, but suddenly fell into the hands of a top student and was solved by more advanced swordsmanship.

But this time, he fell into danger.

Byron did not use the "Swordsmanship Principle" which had been upgraded several times: Storm Axe + Quicklime; Storm Axe + Knockout Drug; Storm Axe + Molotov Cocktail
Instead, he simply relied on his [Storm Sword Skill] to hold on.

Anyway, the consciousness has descended into the body of the servant, and the original body cannot die.

This gave him the greatest confidence to let go and hone his swordsmanship.

The conqueror Cortes failed to defeat Byron in one breath, so all the exquisite sword moves full of mathematical beauty naturally became precious nutrients for him to improve his swordsmanship.

The original body projected all its consciousness onto Alvin without hesitation.

He calmed down completely, forgetting about the [Golden Code] around his waist, the indescribable [Invulnerability to All Diseases], and even the increasing number of wounds on his body.

Just remember the five prerequisites for achieving flow:

“First, focus and complete immersion.”

You have already started dancing on the edge of a knife where you could lose your life at any moment. If this is not immersion, then what else can be considered immersion?
“Second, you need to have a goal that you are willing to pay the price for.”

I don't even want my life anymore, who dares to be more cruel than me? !

It's just a life, what's the harm in losing it? Alvin, if you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent.

“Third, there is immediate feedback; fourth, because you focus on it.”

fifth
Byron had forgotten all the following points after he completely entered the state.

He closed his eyes and let his spiritual perception take over the lance in his hand, with nothing else but the sword.

Under tremendous external pressure and extreme state of selflessness.

He seemed to hear an old voice saying in his ear:
“God loves the world, but the biggest prison in the world is the human brain. If you can’t get out of your obsession, you will be a prisoner wherever you go.”

Another voice with the sound of metal clanging said:
“If you keep thinking about it, there will be a response.

The world is an echo valley. If you shout or sing at the top of your voice, the valley will thunder and the sound will travel thousands of miles, layer upon layer, wave after wave, to the other side of the world.

Whatever you keep in mind, there will be a response! "

No, that is not actually a sound, but the insights left by the predecessors who pioneered this path, which have settled in the ocean of humanity’s collective subconsciousness.

One after another, insights in the form of abstract experience continuously guide Byron, who is wandering outside the gate with his eyes blindfolded, to the right path.

Thanks to the existence of the "ocean of human subconsciousness", Byron could directly listen to the direct guidance of the saints who lived hundreds and thousands of years ago.

There will be no gaps or omissions due to intermediate text transcription, media loss, or the impact of war.

The knowledge they obtain now is the same as that of their disciples back then.

This inheritance and accumulation of civilization from generation to generation is also the greatest reliance for mankind to emerge in the extraordinary world and stand at the top of the food chain!
For an instant.

Byron seemed to have returned to the moment of his spiritual awakening. Everything in the material world became extremely slow, while everything in the spiritual world became extremely fast.

Under the guidance of those voices, Byron's spirit finally touched the door of flow that was already very close.

Finally, the last voice sounded:
"The human mind is the 'driver' of one's own destiny.

His chariot was drawn by two horses: one was a good horse, which led him upwards, toward the pure Idea of ​​God; the other was an unruly horse, which dragged him downwards, toward the body.

Man has the ability to ascend to heaven and even be reborn as a divine being.

But they are constantly tempted by physical desires, leading them downward into the animalistic material world.

Remember, we must hold the reins tightly and be the masters of our own lives! "

Combining the theories of the Crystal Skull and the Insect Swarm, Byron completely saw the right path to the extraordinary.

Whether it is an anchor or a sail, the extraordinary person must always maintain his own self.

So as to avoid turning yourself into a rigid tool who follows the rules, and also avoid becoming extraordinary and out of control, and completely degenerating into a weird evil spirit.

“I understand.

The "Ladder of Glory" rooted in the "divinity" and the superego comes from the Silver Law; the forbidden knowledge that acts on the "animal nature" and the ego comes from the indescribable before those eras. They are both tyrants fighting for the control of the mind.

The latter are slaves of the flesh, while the former are in collusion with human society to force people to obey the overall situation in everything.

What I have to do now is to liberate the consciousness called "self" from the constraints of instinctive desires and rules! "

There was no bulging of veins like in difficult childbirth, or a desperate attempt to survive. He simply opened his eyes again, with a bright light in them.

Naturally, he uttered:
"open!"

From deep within my consciousness I heard a loud bang as if a chain was breaking.

Byron's body remained unchanged, but his soul seemed to have been relieved of a heavy burden and felt extremely light and lively.

At this moment, he turned back into the old sailor who led the "spiritual sublimation". He held the ropes that filled the sails tightly, let the sea breeze blow his hair, and felt the joy of the ship breaking through the waves.

Let the sail, boat, wind and sea create a harmonious resonance in your blood vessels.

Happy, comfortable, and full of high self-confidence.

The remotely controlled [Wild Hunt Servant] Alvin and the knight's spear in his hand were suddenly completely different.

Just as Cortes was about to stab with his sword, an idea suddenly struck him.

Ignoring his stab, he turned his spear into a stick, swept up by wind and thunder, and smashed the opponent's chest with the butt of the spear in his hand.

It seemed as if both sides would suffer losses and perish together with Cortes.

This reckless fighting style immediately forced the conqueror, who valued his life, to dodge and create distance again while putting away his sword to block.

Because "flow" is a spiritual state that even ordinary people can achieve, it has no external manifestations and is not as easy to identify as extraordinary abilities.

Until now, Cortes was only slightly stunned by his fighting style and had not yet realized that the [Wild Hunt] in front of him had undergone a complete transformation.

"Humph, a last-ditch struggle! Your blood is almost gone, right?
Die now!"

But when he activated [Circle of Sacrifice] again and used the exact same move as before to kill Byron, he suddenly felt that the wind around him was inexplicably noisy.

The trajectory of the wind was completely different from his original calculation.

"This is.?"

The pupils suddenly shrank into needle points.

He discovered that this was because Byron was breathing!

Wisps of white air flowed in and out of his mouth and nose, connecting himself with the surrounding wind with the rhythm of his breathing.

[Storm Knight] is a master of controlling Qi, and his breathing rhythm and efficiency are far beyond the reach of any other extraordinary profession.

Moreover, the hearts and breath are dependent on each other!
Even [Flow] can be seen as a simplified version of Storm Knight's other promotion route [Breathing of Everything].

Difference: [Breathing of All Things] can listen to all dead and living things, and even control them; but [Flow] can only perfectly control one's own spirit and body.

This clear distinction in other people was easily broken in Byron.

His own swordsmanship proficiency, riding, storm swordsmanship, son of the storm, storm axe, and a series of other abilities are perfectly integrated by the flow of mind and have undergone qualitative changes.

laugh!
According to the original calculated trajectory, Cortes, who had already rushed to Byron, suddenly had a bloody wound on his cheek.

All the winds within the ritual circle began to resist him with all their might.

At this moment, the conqueror who vowed to kill the Wild Hunt finally changed his expression.

"You also made a breakthrough? This is impossible!"

The speed is faster, the power is stronger, and the swordsmanship level has narrowed the original qualitative gap.

Byron's "difficult problem" that could leave ordinary people at a loss suddenly changed from the original "solid geometry" to "space analytic geometry and vector algebra."

[Supreme Technique] The initial method of solving the problem naturally became invalid in an instant.

Tragically, Cortes had already followed the original formula, putting his own sword moves into play, and had placed himself in front of Byron just like before.

Without dodging or evading, he turned the gun into a stick.

Use your fingertips to thrust in the opposite direction!
In the past, [Son of the Storm] simply offset the gravity of the equipment, allowing the footwork, torso, arms, and fingers to all be equally fast.

This time it was completely different from the past. The wind not only offset the gravity, but also gave him a strong boost. The tail of the gun did not make any sharp whistling sound.

A shadow of a stick flashed by.

Cortes, who had miscalculated, had nowhere to hide.

He had just retracted half of the swift sword in his hand, which was ready to block, when the butt of the gun had already stabbed his chest.

"Pfft!"

Byron immediately let go and floated back, easily avoiding the sharp edge of the swift sword that was slashing towards his neck.

Cortes slowly lowered his head and saw that the thick and blunt butt of the gun, as thick as the rim of a cup, not only pierced through his [Medal of the Thirteen Knights], but also went through his heart.

When my vision turned black, I could only hear one sentence:
“Who says you can’t kill someone without using a gun?

One is the back heart and the other is the front heart, you and Beatrice can be said to have a beginning and an end.

Oh, sorry, there is no end, you need to get up and continue working."
