The material of this snow mountain was extremely dense and had a great blocking effect on mental power. It was difficult to detect the movements of the outside world. The only thing that could expand one's perception was sound, or vibration.
Luo Kai tried to control the speed of blood and Qi circulation in this reborn body. The new body was more sensitive than his previous body. As his heartbeat decreased, his consciousness entered a state of emptiness. Some subtle vibrations that were normally hard to detect entered his ears.
Under normal circumstances, a human's subjective consciousness could only focus on one target. Once there was external interference, the efficiency would decrease. The state of emptiness was to actively eliminate external interference and pay more attention to something.
Faintly discernible footsteps came from outside the corridor. The aura was obscure. It was obviously a powerful physical master.
Luo Kai opened his eyes. Killing intent emerged in his heart. A slit slowly opened between his eyebrows. The Blade of Severance was restless.
The footsteps came closer and closer. They paused at the entrance of the stone room and then left.
The slit between Luo Kai's eyebrows closed again. He didn't have much confidence that he could kill a physical master without making too much noise. He could only wait for a low level disciple to appear.
In addition to a powerful body, physical masters had evolved a powerful telepathic ability. Before he made a move, he would definitely be sensed and thus be on guard. To deal with an enemy of this level, unless he had the power to kill in one blow like the Sky Piercing Bird, it was highly likely that it would be useless.
The Blade of Severance's power of space was indeed powerful, but it probably couldn't kill a physical master in one blow.
The new body made him seriously lacking in confidence. The power of space came from spiritual willpower. This level of power needed to have indomitable confidence. Lacking confidence meant that the result was bound to be failure.
He slowed down his breathing again. The high-speed blood and Qi returned to normal. He was thinking about how to apply Buddhist techniques to the enemy.
The essence of Buddhism was no less extensive and profound than that of Taoism. In addition, after the Catastrophe, human beings had innovated on the basis of Buddhism and developed many wonderful methods. This time, after reading the classics of the Heavenly Thunder Palace, Luo Kai had unknowingly made some progress. As the saying goes, one can be unyielding if one has no desires. The essence of Buddhism was gentle and mild, and the body arts evolved from it represented a kind of extreme Yang power.
According to the level classification of the Buddhist Sect's Mind's Eye, he'd already attained the level of All-Seeing Eye. The so-called All-Seeing Eye possessed the profound ability to see through everything down to the smallest detail, and it was capable of observing the operation of everything from the microscopic level before finding a method to utilize it.
Come to think of it, everything he had came from his body, which he could control on a microscopic level. It was like a car engine that could rise and fall freely. When it was moving at high speed, it could naturally be used to rampage. When it was moving at low speed, it could also be used to climb some steep slopes.
In the past, he had paid more attention to the tyrannical outburst brought about by the rapid circulation of Qi and blood. Now, he had thought of something different, such as drawing a bow without releasing it.
The Heaven's Thunder Palace had an earth elemental body technique called the Immovable Vajra Seal. The principle behind it was to use the ground beneath one's feet as a foundation, circulating energy within one's body endlessly, accumulating energy but not releasing it. It was like a fully drawn bow. If an enemy attacked, they would immediately receive a powerful counterattack. Its method of circulating energy was not any weaker than the Great Might Dragon Fist.
The key point was that this body technique also contained energy techniques. It could create a connection with the earth and use the vigorous and imposing power of the earth.
The power of the earth originated from the majestic pulsation deep underground. It was a bit similar to the heartbeat and pulse of life. Just like how traditional Chinese medicine understood the condition of the human body, through this pulsation, Luo Kai could also have a deeper communication with the earth. Only by understanding the earth would the earth bestow you power.
Just as he was pondering over how to apply Buddhist techniques to the enemy, a silk-like faint green shadow silently swept over from the corridor outside. When it reached the entrance of the stone room, it suddenly stopped. A pair of quick-witted small eyes looked into the stone room.
Luo Kai only felt a terrifying aura locking onto him. The huge sense of crisis made him involuntarily activate all of his spiritual energy. The flow of time became slow, and the starlight in his eyes flowed rapidly. He used his spiritual energy to set up layers of defensive barriers in front of him. In front of his eyes, a wisp of green light had already arrived in front of him.
"Bang!"
With a sound, the invisible spiritual barrier shattered with a loud bang. An exquisite little bird appeared out of thin air. Those sparkling small eyes were filled with surprise. It seemed that it didn't expect this human to be able to block its attack.
It was that terrifying Sky Piercing Bird. It had already entered the Heavenly Thunder Palace and just happened to discover him. Luo Kai's face was dark. If his spiritual energy hadn't been able to slow down the flow of time relatively and had the opportunity to set up a defensive barrier, he would have died without a doubt.
The space of the stone room was small, and the Sky Piercing Bird couldn't launch a powerful kinetic attack. However, its ordinary methods were also very powerful. It flapped its wings, and invisible air rushed in rapidly. It kept spinning and formed an extremely strong suction force. Luo Kai's body loosened, and he actually couldn't help but move towards the other party. It was as if he had taken the initiative to send his head up for it to hit. He hurriedly stomped his feet, and a gravitational force was generated in the void. He used the newly comprehended Acalanatha Vajra Seal to resist this suction force.
The Sky Piercing Bird let out a squeak, and its lower abdomen spewed out a greenish-purple tail flame. It shot straight towards him.
Luo Kai used the white jade cane behind him to meet it. With a crisp crack, the cane flew out of his hand, and with a muffled groan, it directly hit the stone wall behind him. He lowered his head to look at his already deformed arm. Not only was his palm completely fractured, even his arm was broken.
Now, he finally experienced the terror of the Sky Piercing Bird. Its seemingly small body was actually very heavy. Even if it couldn't use kinetic acceleration here, its strength was still very large. Moreover, the area affected by the force was very small, and its penetrative power was simply unparalleled. The spiritual barrier that he had set up was almost useless against it.
He took a deep breath, and a silver light flashed between his eyebrows. Accompanied by a cheerful crisp sound, the Blade of Severance turned into a ray of light and pierced towards the Sky Piercing Bird.
The Sky Piercing Bird's small eyes showed a dignified expression for the first time. Its abdomen spewed out a green light, and it collided with the Blade of Severance.
The collision of a bird and a needle was not as explosive as expected. Instead, it was very colorful and calm. The light that the Blade of Severance had turned into spun around the Sky Piercing Bird continuously, quickly weaving a spatial net around it. No matter how hard the Sky Piercing Bird crashed, it was still wandering in a fixed circle.
The Sky Piercing Bird's ability came from its microscopic compressed body and control of the wind element. Its body had also evolved a propulsion system similar to that of a rocket fuel. With its super strong propulsion, wind resistance, and its own high mass, it could be said that it was invincible. However, any power needed space to be transmitted, and the spatial power that the Blade of Severance had was its nemesis.
If it could continue for a long time, it could completely trap this terrifying complete body of a ferocious beast to death.
Unfortunately, Luo Kai's spiritual power was not enough to support it. In just a moment, his vision turned black, and the spatial net also showed signs of fragmentation.
