Chapter 523: Strange Energy
CHAPTER 523: STRANGE ENERGY
The one in his world is fake. The one in this world is real
The one in his world could only blow a small wind, the one in this world could bring about storm
The one in his world is not suitable, the one in this world could embrace it and accept it and modified it to fit this world rules and laws!
A real Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm appears in this world!
Remorseful Dragon Repents!
It was at this time he felt energy rising from below his navel to his arms to his palm.
In this moment where he should not lose his enemies, he close his eyes.
This is the first time he would use this method.
One probably thought that since this is the first time that he would use this method in earnest he should opens his eyes and look at the attack
But there is something more important than that for him right now
He needed to understand where to unleash force and when to hold back
When to press forward and when to yield.
There is strategy in his palm method which elevated this palm method above simple power-based methods of fighting
The power is gathering, and his left pam draws a circular motion.
HONGLONG!
HONG!
ROAR!
A powerful wind rising and gathering, and colliding with each other created sounds like many beasts are clashing
At least this is how it would be heard by people. But Aeryon only heard one sound in his ears
The sound of a dragon that is growling and is ready to roar in earnest!
As he draw this circle, he could feel energy gathering around each of his finger and this energy that is separated on the finger began melding and covering the whole palm
This feeling is very pleasant.
Like a fire that heats up his body. But this fire does not harm him instead, it gave him this warmth that seems to expands the channels where his energy is flowing
The heat.
That is the first thing he notices.
The heat on each finger on his two hands.
Even though he is moving fast and these set of movement is done in only a matter of a few second, Aeryon savour every second, each second is a chance for him to familiarize himself with this feeling of the energy of heaven and earth
This time he is not wrong.
This time he really felt it.
Felt the energy of heaven and earth.
He always thought that the energy of heaven and earth come from above.
He imagined it before
He thought that it would feel like the rain that would drench you from above.
But it is not like that at all.
The energy of heaven and earth is everywhere.
He feel that energy on the ground he is stepping , he feels that energy from above, from his left and right, from every direction
The essence of life that seems to breathe some kind of divine energy into his body that could be used by him
The heat is felt on the tip of his finger, and this feeling seeps into the bones.
But all of these heat is separated. It did not form a perfect whole.
It did not cover the whole palm
Aeryon had the idea of forcing it but then he thought better of it.
And the moment he let the energy to flow naturally, the energy on the tip of his finger moves down to the center of the palm
Aeryon smiles and then he push outward with his right palm!
ROAR!
HONG!
Proud Dragon Repents.
The key is not being proud, but remorseful.
The palm force should be hesitant, hard, soft, light and heavy, full of transformations, all to symbolize the word "remorse"
The moment it was unleashed, the pavilion area exploded and four of the pillars of the pavilion crack.
This is wooden pillars that are reinforced deeply on the bottom but it could not withstand the pressure and the pillars cracked.
Ayera could feel the powerful force heading towards her and she jumped out of the way. This time, her speed become even more unfathomable.
There is even her afterimage left out when she is moving.
That is how fast she is moving, that she appears in a different place and she left her afterimage in her initial position.
This kind of speed is really lethal
The guards also was shocked when they see what happened.
Not only they were shocked what the Kan is able to do they were also shocked seeing how fast Ayera could move
The lake water rose up and exploded and turns into mist.
Powerful heat fills the entire pavilion
Ayera managed to dodge it but before she could land and stabilize her stance, another force is coming towards her.
She look toward Aeryon and saw the second strike is about to reach her
It was another palm strike. Aeryon did not stop and rest
Instead, he followed up with another strike
The second palm strike.
The Dragon Soars in the Sky.
Aeryon jumped and when he jumped he executed the second palm strike
Ayera did not notice from when Aeryon jump.
And she did not notice when Aeryon is above him.
That alone is a feat. Because Ayera training relies on her sensing everyone movement.
If this was in any other setting, Aeryon could never hide his existence and Ayera would never miss his existence
But the setting right now is that there is a powerful palm strike that causes the dust to rises up, the ground to be scooped up into the sky, the energy is rampant like a storm that sweeps through everything,.
On that situation, even Ayera become disoriented.
There is a feeling that a beast is about to maul you to death.
How could you pay attention to your surroundings at that time? You focus on the immediate and fatal threat in front of you.
And in dong so, Aeryon manage to create the perfect position for him to use the second palm strike.
right now, this palm strike and the method he uses is perfect and compatible with the situation
Dragon Soars in the Sky.
The Nine in the Fifth Position, the zenith of virtuous leadership, Occupying the central position of the upper trigram, this line embodies strength, integrity and moral rectitude
The phrase dragon soars in the heavens represent the culmination of potential, where one rises to a position of power and inspires admiration from all.
As its namesake suggest, this is a downward hitting stroke which may be initiated from high ground or a jump
Just as how a dragon may ride on the fame and reputation of the great men it spots to enhance its status, this stroke draws on the strength of both its practitioner and the impact from his fall to deliver a forceful and unrecoverable blow on the adversary.
The sound of the roaring sounded again.
It is like the wind roaring. But to the ears of the people it also sounds like there is a beast that comes out of nowhere roaring.
This roar has that feeling of shocking the world. This roar disorient the mind. It cracks the earth and split the heavens
That is the feeling that this roar seems to give
The powerful palm force flew causing the dust around Aeryon and the palm force moves to all rises up, making the entire pavilion area to be full of dust
It was like there is a sandstorm in the middle of the pavilion.
By now, the roof of the pavilion has already been blasted into pieces, its remains scattered all over the compound
"Shit" Ayera cursed in her heart.
She kicks the wind and amazingly, it was like she is kicking a solid thing.
An energy shot out from her feet so that in the air it almost felt like she hits a wall in the air and somersaulted away from that palm strike.
Ayera dodges it again but the ground where she is standing on depressed by three feet and before she could see the effect, the ground where just stand on exploded creating a large crater on the ground.
Like a palm from a giant had just slammed itself on that area
A golden energy seems to swirls out from Aeryon and merge with his palm strike that was shot out
Ayera did not notice this but Aeryon who has been paying attention to himself notice it
"This energy.....illusory turning to real, from will to substance?" this is an enlightenment that he suddenly realize in this moment
Ayera could not have notice it because right now, everything around her is a mess
The roar of the dragon brings about destruction!
A powerful fierce and extremely firm energy swept away everything around it.
The crater itself seems to be scorched
Ayera, even though she was able to dodge the blast, the force still manage to invade her body.
In that last moment, even though it seems like she had perfectly avoided the attack, the attack still manage to find a way to invade her body
Like a needle, it bores inside Ayera body
