Overgeared

The trail of Grid’s sword strike that was left in the air released a roaring sound a moment later. It was such a huge explosion that it was like dozens of artillery shells were fired at the same time. It wasn’t just a bluff. It actually caused a devastating aftermath.

The wall that Yeo Yulan stood against collapsed. The labyrinth revealed beyond her shoulder had lost its complex structure and turned into a straight path.

‘Hasn’t it been a while?’

An experience where his attack missed—Grid was looking curiously at the MISS indicator that had already emerged several times when the clear voice of a woman entered his ears, “The power of the sword is like a disaster. I once imagined that a great mountain would collapse if Chiyou drew his sword, but seeing this, it seems it wasn’t a vain imagination.”

Yeo Yulan—she seemed to have no intention of hiding the fact that her identity was a daoist immortal.

First of all, she wore clothing similar to Bentao. They were silk clothes with a wide spread skirt and sleeves, but a tight waist. Additionally, there was the cause behind Grid’s attacks missing. The daoist techniques with names that only appeared in martial arts were symbols of the daoist immortals of the Peach Blossom Spring.

‘It is tricky. In particular, the amulets.’

They were on a different level from any amulets he had seen before. Yeo Yulan’s amulets worked similarly to the artificial senses that Grid had relied on for a while. They hovered around their master, helping her read the trajectory of the attack and produce better results. They were similar to Zik’s runes in that they exerted different performances depending on the characters written on the amulet. The earrings made of jade seemed to be classified as a ‘daoist magic weapon,’ an artifact of the daoist immortals. However, there were no signs of them being used yet.

She was by no means an easy opponent.

‘I can’t let my guard down in the slightest.’

It was back when Grid wasn’t an Absolute. He fought against Martial God Zeratul and won. Before Braham became a god, he joined forces with Zik to defeat King Sobyeol. It meant it wasn’t guaranteed that an Absolute could win against a transcendent. Moreover, it was difficult to guess the age of a daoist immortal.

Bentao, who was trying to let people know that the Seven Malignant Saints were actually good people, was someone who lived in the same era as the Seven Malignant Saints. There was no law saying it wasn’t possible just because it was Yeo Yulan in front of him. It was right to not believe in the superiority of his combat power and to be on guard against a hidden power.

Grid eventually activated the Sanctuary of Metal and admonished Yeo Yulan, “Make your attitude clear.”

He treated her disrespectfully despite guessing that she might be older than she looked. It was because she looked like his age and she attacked first. Yes, she was an enemy. She appeared out of nowhere and tried to attach an amulet to Skunk and Creischler. He couldn’t interpret this action as a favor.

However, there was a bit of a vague part. She only avoided Grid’s attacks and didn’t fight back at all. She didn’t show any hostility to call it being intimidated. Rather, she expressed her respect with frank admiration.

Grid still had a good image of the daoist immortals, so he found it difficult to wield the six fusion sword dance, which was classified as a ‘killing technique.’

“There is nothing wrong with my attitude. I’m not trying to antagonize you. I am trying to send you back. I am sorry to disturb you, who have become an Only One God for humans.”

“......”

Yeo Yulan was a daoist immortal. She became enlightened in reason and principles and transcended humans, building up divinity. She was different from the heavenly gods, who were gods from birth, the yangbans who were born from the gods, or the human gods who made great achievements or become gods because they were worshiped due to their combat power. She was an existence that was difficult to evaluate through black and white logic.

Grid decided it was better to have a conversation and put away his sword for a moment.

“What is buried here?”

It was a question that pierced the core. What was the true identity of the Specter? Why was there a daoist immortal in the No Offspring Tomb? Why did a daoist immortal stand on the side of the No Offspring Tomb?

Grid dug into the essence that solved all sorts of miscellaneous questions at once.
