Surviving as a Genius on Borrowed Time

“......”

The masters of Taemosan Fortress, who had not closed their mouths even once while chanting the incantations, fell into silence.

Cheongsu Jin-in and Ak Su-rim were the same.

The sorcerers of the Mosan Sect, who had pierced the bodies of the moving corpses with a single strike or shattered the heads of the sorcerers with a spear, turned their gaze away.

It was a rare-scale clash of martial forces.

The battlefield would soon become intense again, but the great warriors, who were hailed as legends in the Jianghu, suddenly stopped their actions. The massive shockwave had caused the cluster of scales to shift backward right after the attack.

The Dragon of the Seas was pushed back with a single strike.

This was of great significance. It meant that a human who had mastered martial arts could resist natural disasters.

The violent wave of power that had risen like a typhoon had already swept away even the Dark Heaven Emperor.

Naturally, this was to be expected.

They had been caught off guard by a combined assault of peerless masters. Even the Dark Heaven Emperor, who had invoked the dead spirit of the departed as a last-ditch effort, would take some time to return to the battlefield.

Flap!

Jeong Yeon-shin, floating in the air, flipped his body around. Following his swift movement, the wide hem of his clothes flared out. The sky, darkened by the coming storm, made his robes take on a deep blue hue.

His eyes were faint.

‘Not enough.’

He clenched and relaxed his hand.

A slight tremor passed through his palm. The aftershock of the single strike.

The strike just now had carried additional force. Beneath him, the Golden-armed Great Master, who had conjured golden arms from his own qi, was correcting his posture, having already twisted his body.

It was due to the overwhelming power of the Hundred-Phase Divine Fist, which had been amplified like a wave of force.

“…Amitabha.”

The old monk let out a deep sigh.

No energy flowed from the body of the great Shaolin patriarch. He was perfectly still. The words "Vajra" and "Immovable" naturally came to mind.

The power of the Hundred-Phase Divine Fist was much more refined than Jeong Yeon-shin's own strike. The control over the qi was on an entirely different level.

‘Shaolin.’

The ancestral home of the Great Circle of Dharma.
