Chapter 706: Chapter 702: Seeing Oneself (End of Volume One)

Tang Luo, realizing that the youngster needed time to process, didn’t disturb him and continued to sit cross-legged in calm. The more he practiced martial arts, the more he realized its profound and vast depth.

His ability to shatter the spell’s internal structure with a snap of his fingers was because his eyes could perceive the peculiar way the spiritual power fluctuations were progressing. This straightforward overlapping of the two marks could hardly escape his sight.

The reason the kid was having such a hard time accepting this was because people had grown accustomed to the idea that spells were invisible to the naked eye. Thus, seeing a spell shattered with a snap of his fingers was so shocking.

But what if one couldn’t see the spell? Did that mean it was unbreakable? Not necessarily. Take Xu Lao’s Tongming Sword Body for instance, his extremely keen six senses could easily sense the trace of an approaching spell. Merely a single innate body-penetrating sword qi could strangle the spell in its cradle.

Even the members of the Xu Clan who hadn’t practiced the Tongming Sword Body could initiate hundreds, if not thousands of innate body-penetrating sword qi. As long as any one of them touched the soul mark, wouldn’t that break the spell as well?

Dreaming of dominating the Mortal Realm with an anonymous fire followed by martial techniques was ultimately just the unrealistic fancy of a child. If his misperceptions weren’t corrected swiftly, he would stray further and further off the martial arts path.

So, the villain had to be Tang Luo. It now depended on how long it would take the youngster to rebuild his martial arts understanding.

“Hmm?”

Twin fierce white tornadoes interrupted Tang Luo’s contemplation. Seeing his brother’s determined face through a spirit art that was capable of tearing apart massive rocks brought a smile to his face.

Perhaps the youngster had all sorts of pampered habits due to his family’s protection, but the emotional maturity of a child who has grown up amidst love was exceptional. The shock of having his understanding of martial arts overthrown was just temporary; he adjusted quickly. His subsequent move was the killing technique called Double Dragon, and the firm look in his eyes was fitting of a martial art warrior.

Just like the nameless fire, the power of his martial technique wasn’t the problem, it was the instability of its spiritual power structure. The spiral-shaped spirit art effectively concealed the weaknesses of the internal structure, making this move appear invincible. But Tang Luo was all too familiar with this move. Under the scrutiny of his evolved eyes, there were still a few flaws in his widely-praised spirit art.
