Chapter 527: The Sword In Her Heart

Ayera saw that Aeryon close his eyes but she did not attack. Because she could feel that Aeryon suddenly feel dangerous. Even more dangerous than before

And then he opens his eyes

"The Proud Dragon Repents! Aeryon thrusted his palm suddenly.

The sound of a beast roaring shakes the entire pavilion area, the ground beneath his feet cracked and golden energy seems to shoot out from Aeryon palm

This golden energy is gathering and was about to form some kind of silhouette of a beats but this silhouette is not clear.

But while the silhouette is not clear, the energy is real

This time, the force came faster, and then Ayera knows that Aeryon wanted to finish this in one strike.

Her hand is at the knife.

The force come closer and closer

Three feet.

Two feet.

There is two feet distance between Ayera and that palm force and even before the palm force could reach her, her body already felt a powerful rejection force.

But she did not close her eyes or waiting for death

She draws her knife.

For the first time since their battle, she finally drew out her knife

And the sword in her heart trembles violently.

The sword in her heart trembles.

It shakes.

It rumbles.

Because it is about to be unleashed. Around her, the grass, the gravels, the sand, the stones suddenly they were cut by an invisible line.

They were cut and they were split

And then...she swings her knife. A simple swing of her knife

Yes, simple. That is the best way to describe her knife

But the moment it was unlashed, it was like a light streaking through an origin point and it swept away all the darkness

It was so swift, that it almost felt like it appears out of nowhere. It was brilliant and one find words are not enough to describe this knife method

Two feet distance.

In this two feet distance, no one knows how Ayera manage to pull out the knife and even attack in that split second

But how did not matter now. She had already done it and the swing came

Very fast knife, very fast strike

Aeryon even though he is six feet away from Ayera, he should have seen this method.

His eyes is after all not yet weak, and he could even see thing clearly more than ordinary people.

After all, one with bad eyesight could not be an accomplished archer as himself

But even he, with his almost superior eyesight could not see how that strike happens and how Ayera does it.

Aeryon has fought many people in the battlefield,. He also had seen his fair share of people with fast sword or fast knife

But none...none of them has a knife method as fast as Ayera right now

"Who is behind you?" Aeryon thought to himself

Ayera probably did not have this kind of attack when she first come here. Or when she was in her tribe

If she did, she could be a very accomplished warrior in Utgard tribe.

But there is something wrong with her.

With that energy.

Aeryon did not know what is it but he felt there is something wrong about this energy.

He did not notice it before.

But now he notices it

However, this is not the time to think about it. Because the knife had attack. He could not be slow

Just a little slower, is enough to decide the outcome and divide life and death

Ayera focused her mind.

In her mind right now, there is only a large silhouette of a transparent beast coming ....no, charging forward towards her

That.....and her sword.

She is holding a knife but when she swings her knife, the sword in her heart, melded with the knife and when it shot out, it shot out a sword will

A sword strike

And her sword is not only fast but sharp.

She had sharpened it from her tent.

She sharpened it when she is talking with her husband.

She sharpens it even more when she is fighting. And that sharpening reaches its limit in that fifty second pause.

She could not sharpen it more.

Not because it could no longer be sharpened.

But because her ,limit has been reached.

If she understand this sword intention, this sword will and has the corresponding technique to this sword will, then she would be able to break that limit and sharpen the sword even more.

She is betting.

And as it is with betting she could lose and win.

She betted her attack power.

Because she could not bear it.

If she fails, the only thing she could do was to endure until she reached a moment where she could once again wield a sword

But for now, this is her bet.

The sharp and fast sword embedded in the knife cut through the golden palm energy

BOOOM!

A powerful explosion erupted two feet away from Ayera.

But the sword will cut through the explosion, cut through the dust, the stones, the water that is about to reach Ayera and even before they reach Ayera, they turned into dust.

Ayera in that moment jump back, distancing himself from Aeryon.

The dust rises up between them

But Aeryon did not wait.

He raise his arm, his palm gather another energy and he unleashed another strike

"ROAR!"

This time the sound of the beast echoes even louder than before that even the walls that separates this place and the other halls seems to shake.

It is like the radius of its effect expanded

It is the fifth stroke. The Hidden Dragon Do Not Act.

The force gathered but not released, the right-hand forms half fist, half palm and he strikes toward the opponent direction

He modified the method a bit because the distance between him and Ayera is far away.

If not he should have strike the opponent chest while his left hand simultaneously hooks inwards to creates inescapable two directional attack

But the distance between them did not allow this.

So, he changes a bit of this method.

After all, while his palm method di originate from the Eighteen Dragon Subduing palm, it is not really the Eighteen Dragon Subduing palm nor does he needs to be constrained by moves and strokes

Depending on the circumstances, mix and match the moves

But he still retains the core philosophy of this fifth move

The Hidden Dragon Must Not Act. This move emphasises restraint. It symbolizes hiding or lying dormant

The dragon remains hidden beneath the surface

Nurture one talent and virtues and the right moment for action will come

And then Aeryon began using a few more moves of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm.

The more he uses it, the more proficient he became.

The sound of the roar of the beats seems to echoes, and then resound and then all the area of the pavilion is filled with the sound of a beast roaring

Not the wind roaring but like a beast had appeared out and is roaring all over the leisure area of this palace compound of the Kan

Ayera on the other hand look at all of these silhouettes of best charging towards her.

From all direction, powerful palm force is rushing towards her like a torrent of water that was released from a broken dam

She uses one strike, and twenty five percent of the sword intention was extinguished. But she did not regret it

"Will I lose?" she thought to herself.

But now, thinking of winning and losing, she chuckles to herself. She sweeps away all thought of winning and losing, instead she focused on her sword.

The sword in her heart

The knife is only the medium of that sword intention.

The knife itself could no longer stand it.

Because Ayera sees a few cracks on the knife.

"Even if I lose, I want to know....I want to know how much gap between me and him" she thought to herself.

So, her knife moves again, the sword intention is mobilized again and another twenty five percent of the sword in her heart is being erased

Silhouette of beast made from energy of heaven and earth flies toward her, charging towards her, she smiles and cut, stab, poke and swing her knife. With each strike, it added a few more cracks on the knife.

But Ayera did not seem to care

The knife pierced through these beast.

Even the air made a sharp screeching sound each time she make a move with her knife. The silhouette of beast are all cut by her sword

Aeryon also came closer and closer toward Ayera.

Sometimes, he uses his palm method sometimes it is just a simple palm method without any internal energy.

When he did not use a palm strike based on the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palm he is recovering his stamina

Aeryon could not help but feel that Ayera knife method is really sharp and terrifying

Even though the knife itself did not reach him, and he himself did not face the edge of that knife, he felt cold all over his bodies

There are not many people in this tribe or even in the entire Southern Great Steppe that could accept this knife method

Most people would die even before they were able to appreciate this knife method

Swift and lethal
