The brave Simmel wants to resign

But the opponent simply used the sheer power of the "Big Brick Flying" skill to suppress him.

The feeling of being defeated in your area of ​​expertise is extremely unpleasant, and the flames constantly erupting from the head of the water clock are the best proof of that.

"You brat!!!" Louhu roared angrily.

"Come on! Cursed Spirit!"

Shi Liulong was also very excited and charged forward with his arms outstretched.

That's right!

come on!

Whether sorcerer or spirit, they love each other most —

boom! !

boom!

They walk towards each other, leap up at the same time, and thrust their fists forward!

Time for boxing!!!

Bang bang bang! !

The water clock's punches were short and sharp, the movements so fast that only afterimages remained.

In contrast, Shi Liulong has long limbs, and his punches and kicks have a wide range of motion, with his long arms swinging with a strong wind.

The two exchanged countless punches and kicks, but after a tentative exchange, Louhu gradually fell into a disadvantageous position and was sent flying by Shi Liulong's powerful swing punch!

As one of Sendai's Four Heavenly Kings, Sekiryu Ryu's combat power clearly surpasses that of Louko, the leader of the Four Calamities...

but.

He was not alone on the battlefield.

After throwing a punch, the body gained momentum, and just then—

"Um?!"

Shi Liulong noticed the aura behind him.

He twisted his neck with effort, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of that gray-blue figure.

The real person appeared on the battlefield at some unknown time.

Unlike the water clock that broke through the ground, he seemed to have always been there.

(Why? I clearly cleared the surrounding area with the Ice Sand Shockwave just now... Although I can't confirm the impact due to the wide-area attack, no warlock could possibly reappear so easily after taking that hit.)

It possessed a top-tier aura, but its curse power and curse output were inferior to that of the volcano, and it charged straight at them.

Although Shi Liulong was a powerful sorcerer who could throw bricks, his brain was quick to work.

He quickly came to a guess—

(A surgical technique!)

[It retains its ability to advance even after withstanding the shockwave of the icy sand.]

[And the clear intent to attack at this moment]

He noticed the center of gravity of the real person's movements from the corner of his eye and made another judgment.

(Both palms.)

(The action was too obvious. Why did he approach me with such a deliberate posture? It's probably because the spell has some kind of restriction, requiring both hands to touch before it can be used. In sorcery, spells that require 'both hands to touch' usually have corresponding enhancement effects.)

(It might be quite tricky.)

(It's best to avoid it.)

(but----)

"Hey!!"

Shi Liulong forcefully twisted his body, his long legs, covered in leather pants, stomped heavily on the ground, his shoes embedding themselves in the earth and creating arc-shaped gullies.

Tighten your muscles, lunge forward—and throw a straight punch!

That's! A useless mindset!

Sorcerer.

While there are exceptions, the vast majority of them who fight with negative emotions are battle maniacs!

In battle, one cares more about the pleasure and exhilaration of one's own soul than about rationality.

Come on!

Shi Liulong faces the real person head-on and throws a punch.

The latter saw that Shi Liulong was so cooperative.

"Niehe!"

With a smile, he opened his palms as wide as possible.

Palm and fist collide head-on!

"Um?!!"

The next moment, both sides showed surprise.

Stone Flow Dragon's curse easily destroyed the real man's palm, smashing the flesh to pieces while the damage extended to his arm, directly crushing half of his body.

Shi Liulong, as if he had accidentally touched a flame, quickly withdrew his arm and staggered back several steps.

"What happened just now..."

His eyes widened in horror as he immediately looked at his fist.

hiss------

The skin was now charred black, with dense blisters attached to it, making the pustules look ugly and hideous.

"The feel is off... and there's no sign of the body healing... wasn't this an attack aimed at the body?"

A technique is an individual's "world".

The more skilled a sorcerer is, the more profound their understanding of themselves will be.

Understanding the body leads to understanding the soul.

Therefore, Shi Liulong understood in that instant—

"Your technique... is it designed to destroy the soul? No, that's not right. Since it can remain unscathed under my icy shockwave—is it not destruction, but arbitrary manipulation?"

Shi Liulong arrived at the answer.

But a real person's thinking speed... can only be faster than his.

(Hey~)

real person.

Born from human malice, the cursed spirit was subdued by cursed spirit manipulation after being beaten up by Simmel.

It is not hard to see from Xia Youjie's performance during his college years that high-level spirits subdued by spirit manipulation still possess rationality and will lose their ferocity.

The same applies to real people.

However, as a 'mirror of humanity,' even if a real person loses all malice towards humans, they can never like humans. Therefore, they rarely speak, and even when they do, it is to disgust Xia Youjie.

Of course, combat is another matter.

The naturally playful Zhenren always had a unique interest in battle, and he particularly enjoyed dealing with someone like Shi Liulong, who seemed simple-minded.

(But this was a little unexpected...)

The real person raised his arm, which had recovered, and scratched it with his palm.

(How could my surgical technique be so inefficient?)

The True Man's "Transformation of Non-Action" is undoubtedly a powerful technique. In battle, when facing other sorcerers, it can easily inflict fatal wounds simply by touching it.

However, killing is merely a symptom; the core issue remains the 'soul operation'.

The act of a real person destroying another person's body is essentially 'touching the soul and then messing up the soul at will'.

If it were someone below the level one sorcerer, a real person could probably kill them easily.

However, the real person lacked experience fighting against more powerful sorcerers.

The strongest person he fought was Simmel, and his Wuwei Transformation was directly 'parried' by Simmel's soul, resulting in him being injured instead.

If Simmel hadn't been completely ignorant of the concept of 'soul,' he might have been able to shred the real person in that instant.

But if it happened a second time, things might not be the same. Because 'being hurt in the soul' also helps the other party understand the existence of the soul—unfortunately, the real person didn't have time to test it on Simmel before being slaughtered.

Apart from Simmel, the strongest sorcerer the real person had ever dealt with was only at the near-level one.

Their souls are mostly insufficient to launch a counterattack. Although they can wrap their souls with magical power, a mere 'touch' is not enough to kill them, but it is enough to inflict a fatal wound. In addition, the damage to the real person is difficult to reverse, so it is basically the same as being dead.

However, Shi Liulong, as an existence comparable to a modern-day super-class being in certain areas, is beyond the comprehension of ordinary humans.

Any technique is essentially an application of magical power. In most cases, if the target has stronger magical power, it will have a blocking effect on the technique itself, much like the spiritual pressure of a death god.

For example, the hands of a real executioner.

He needs to touch the Stone Dragon's body first, then sense its soul, and manipulate it.

Most people can only use their incantations to hinder the real person at the third step, but Shi Liulong encountered problems as early as the first step.

Because Stone Flow Dragon's magical power output is exceptionally strong, unlike ordinary sorcerers who 'use magical power to strengthen their bodies,' Stone Flow Dragon's body surface is also covered with a layer of pure, overflowing magical power.

The essence of curse power is energy, but just as the release of curse power can cause damage, the mere existence of curse power itself will hinder the act of 'touching'.

The magical power enveloping the physical body can also physically hinder the activation of a real person's spell.

This delay allowed Shi Liulong time to project the cursed power wrapped in his fist at the real person first, thus damaging the real person's palm.

A broken palm means that the transformation of non-action cannot be used; this is a limitation of the technique.

The end result is...

The actual activation time of a true person's transformation through non-action is quite short.
