Chapter 383 -
The man in red remained weak, yet Dave perceived a purpose in sparing him, for now.
"Hmm, two hearts left," Dave noted, employing his ancient eyes to discern the man\'s condition.
He observed that this individual possessed three hearts.
"I concede that you possess strength, but our Ashura King\'s blade will ultimately claim your life," the man declared.
"Demonic Halberd, Time-Space Slash!" The void trembled as a fearsome attack materialized before Dave.
Boom!
Struck by the assault, Dave\'s body was severed in two.
"Hehe, that\'s your penalty for offending me and disrupting my plans," the man gloated.
However, his laughter was short-lived as he witnessed Dave\'s body transforming into a pool of blood.
Shocked, he realized it was a mere blood clone.
"When did he execute that technique?" he wondered.
The man hadn\'t detected Dave leaving his initial position, and he never anticipated facing a blood clone all along.
"Hmm, your sword technique is indeed impressive. Show me more, haha," Dave taunted.
Suddenly, Dave materialized behind him and tapped his shoulder.
Boom!
The man attacked Dave again.
The man\'s sword enters Dave\'s chest. Although Dave coughed blood, his expression bore a sardonic smile.
"You\'re quite fierce. Show me more of your swordsmanship," Dave retorted.
Yet again, Dave\'s form dissolved into a pool of blood, reappearing 100 meters away.
He sat on the ground, eyes closed.
Dave could employ a token to subdue the man, but he recognized a unique approach to swordsmanship in this opponent.
Dave sensed an opportunity to gain insights into the various forms of the "Sword of Calmness" by studying his adversary\'s techniques.
"Arghh!" Dave, whose eyes were shut, suddenly cried out in pain as the man struck once more, beheading him.
"Wowowow, such disrespect! I granted you a safe transformation, yet you afforded me no time for contemplation," Dave\'s severed head remarked sarcastically.
Suddenly, Dave\'s head reattached to his body, his demeanor serene as if impervious to threat.
His blood, an intricate network connecting every part of his being, allowed him to endure the attacks while keeping several tricks concealed.
He permitted the assailant to strike him, keen on experiencing his opponent\'s swordsmanship firsthand.
"Arghh, you\'re infuriating," the man exclaimed.
Though realizing Dave was indestructible, he remained discontented and sensed a vulnerability.
Despite being at the peak-tier of Saint Sovereign power, he found himself manipulated by a youthful individual.
Boom!
Dave\'s form shattered as the man\'s attack hit, yet Dave remained tranquil, seemingly in a mystic trance.
"To be invincible, one must embrace calmness," Dave declared.
Boom!
Despite being blasted apart once again, Dave continued regenerating.
"Conquering an enemy is simple when you maintain serenity," he added.
Boom!
Dave\'s body was blasted once again, yet he continued to regenerate.
"Killing an enemy is an easy effort as long as you remain calm," he thought.
Boom!
Dave\'s regeneration seemed limitless, and his mastery of the law of life and blood magic proved tenacious.
The man in red realized that his time was drawing to a close. If he allowed himself to be struck by lightning, death was inevitable.
"Die, you bastard!" the man exclaimed.
He used even more of his blood and burned his own origin to unleash a stronger attack.
"Ashura Blood Art, Life Harvester!" he cried.
Suddenly, a 10-meter mirage appeared behind him. It consisted entirely of bones and held a huge scythe.
It slashed its weapon at Dave, but Dave remained calm.
"Hmm, success," Dave smirked and then opened his eyes, saying:
<Sword of Calmness>
<Second Form>
<Equilibrium Mirage Technique>
Dave slashed his sword at the man. He felt everything slowing down, and he believed he could appear anywhere he wanted.
Boom!
Boom!
The explosion and collision of techniques destroyed the surroundings, leaving only a massive crater in the ground.
When the dust settled, the man was standing, but red marks appeared on his arms, legs, and half of his body.
Swoosh!
Stunned, he found his energies drained from using a forbidden technique.
He hadn\'t expected to die from such an attack. He saw Dave\'s attack in front of him.
Although slow, it was terrifying. He made a final effort to parry it, but the real attack was behind him.
Equilibrium Mirage Technique- revolves around the art of deception and anticipation. Practitioners utilize feints, subtle shifts, and mirage-like illusions to confuse opponents. The primary focus is on maintaining a tranquil mind, even in the heat of battle. By projecting an air of calmness, practitioners lull their opponents into underestimating their intent, only to strike with unexpected precision.
He fell to the ground, his arms and legs disconnected from his upper body, and his lower body similarly severed from the upper part.
Boom!
The man was drenched in blood, yet he remained alive despite his dire state. Dave smiled and walked up to him.
"Hmm, I should be thanking you for displaying such remarkable swordsmanship. Without that, I might not have comprehended that technique," Dave remarked with a smile.
He employed his life energies to heal the bleeding. With the mask now destroyed, he observed a middle-aged man with black hair and 2 small red horns on his forehead.
However, lacking any information about him, Dave disregarded it and placed his hand on the man\'s head.
<Soul Search>
"Arghh, don\'t you dare. No!"
Stunned, the man anticipated that Dave would immediately end his life. Unbeknownst to him, Dave\'s true intention was to delve into his memories.
Boom!
Abruptly, the token\'s effect vanished, and purple lightning struck Dave\'s body as he stood near the man.
Responding quickly, Dave shielded the man, determined to prevent the loss of this valuable source of information.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The relentless lightning barrage continued, yet Dave remained unfazed, focusing on extracting the man\'s memories.
The cultivation of the person is stronger than him, but Dave\'s soul was higher than the man.
The rage of the immortal plane\'s will reverberated, but Dave paid it no heed.
Boom!
Despite the barrage of lightning strikes, Dave\'s body showed no signs of injury.
Instead, the lightning seemed to refine and strengthen him.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
A more potent bolt materialized, likely the final attack in the sequence.
Dave regained his consciousness, having assimilated all the information he needed.
At this point, the man had become dispensable, soon to serve as Dave\'s next undead soldier.
Dave transported the man\'s body into his domain, further inciting the lightning\'s wrath.
"Bring it on, your assaults merely tickle my skin," Dave taunted, his plan for vengeance against this tribulation taking shape.
"Roaar"
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The lightning continued its assault, each strike growing in intensity. Dave remained seated on the ground, seemingly deriving enjoyment from the spectacle.
"Haha, is that all you\'ve got? How dare you call yourself a tribulation!"
Dave taunted, his confidence unshaken.
His provocation caused the will of the immortal plane to become even more incensed.
The lightning coalesced into the form of a colossal dragon.
Dave sensed that it resembled the Asure Dragon, though it was but a mere imitation.
"Hmmp, more hehe," Dave scoffed, his fearlessness unwavering.
He persisted in his efforts to comprehend the lightning\'s essence.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The resounding crashes of thunder and lightning continued as Dave remained undeterred.
