Way of Overlord Chapter 619: Road

That flash of light, that thod of the spear.... Aeryon feel it very similar to Burchu spear.

"It is similar but there is also a difference. It felt...wrong. It felt like a spear technique but there is incongruity" Aeryon did not really know how to describe this

Out of the many spears user that Aeryon had ever encountered, the one that shocked him was Burchu.

Because even though he won against Burchu, it was a win of strength. As for thods and techniques, Aeryon never seen such an ingenious use of spear to maintain distance and to attack people.

But there is a different between Burchu and Zarkha spear.

Buchu spear is like an all-encompassing spear that seems to co at you from all direction and at tis, it pierces through your defence like nothing.

there is this kind of vastness of that spread to all direction, a kind of bright spirit that overwhelm your enemies.

It could also be stealthy. But dignified. "Hidden below the deepest ground, moving above the highest sky"

Burchu spear seems to alternate between those two states

Hardness and softness changing into each other, wisdom is hidden in every move, conceal and revel, the attack is swift, like a dragon swimming among the clouds, one could not see the body, the tail and the head could sotis be seen

The spear is like a dragon, concealing itself among the clouds, and when it appears, it would co attacking swiftly

Burchu supermanship could counter and could attack easily, his attack would be hard to be seen and even harder to defend.

At tis concealing itself, at tis revealing itself. When it is hidden, it is like a calm lake. When it is revealed, it is like a dragon biting

Acting in accordance with what the opponent is doing, Burchu thod of the spear is able to connect with the original nature of existence.

It ignores the big picture and focuses on only one simple thing...the wielding of a spear.

One shot, concentrated into one point. Not stabbing, not slashing, not tapping but a simple thod....wield the spear

Wield it right. Wield it naturally.

And there is also that temperant that seems to be honed into him and his supermanship.

Burchu himself exemplified this with his action akin of ancient warriors fulfilling all of the virtues of the ancient warriors

Zarkha spear on the other hand has this kind of dark feeling to it. A killing intent so palpable that it almost seems to rise with every thrust, with every stab and every thrust,

If there is one way to describe it, Zarkha spear is for killing. It is optimized for killing. No wasted movent

It did not care whether the move is elegant or beautiful, or even awkward. As long as it could kill, it is a good spear move.

It eschews reason and progression of move.

Just like when one uses hand and feet to deflect and attack, sotis, the beat would change and as long as the spear could stab you, hurt you, kill you, the moves could be changed

So, they were tis it would move....and then it would stop, and then suddenly attack, and suddenly stop, breaking your rhythm and move.

But doing this kind of things would be fatal if you do not know what you are doing

So, in a way it looks like a haphazard move.

But there is nothing haphazard about it. A perfect spear technique designed to kill.

In an army this thod might not be able to fight against armies, but it is very effective against individual.

Zarkha thod is the perfect thod for assassins.

Fast and swift.

Faster and swifter than any spear attack he had ever seen.

And many tis, just a little slower than your enemy is enough to decide the outco an divide life and death.

In that mont, Aeryon felt like his life flashes before him.

He did not only feel the swiftness of that spear tip, but also the sharpness of this attack. It cuts through the wind and space like it is so kind of magic weapon.

The sword pierced through space between them, and the air made a sharp screaming sound with unusual power

Almost like a sound of tearing of space could be heard.

Kashoger looking at this from hill frowned.

But he did not order to shoot. It is not because he didn’t want to

This could be a mont that determine life and death. His action could disrupt Zarkha, but it could also disrupt his cousin.

His heart is pounding and cold sweat drips from his back and even though he hide it, his hand is shaking

But he could not order his n to shoot right now and he could only try to trust in his cousin

When in a battle of this level, even a slight distraction could be fatal.

He is looking at it from up top a hill and even though he is not the one facing the tip of that spear, even he could feel cold all over his body and his face lost all colour.

In this mont, he truly fears for his cousin life.

If the spectator only feels cold, then Aeryon who is enveloped by that spear light felt the sharpness.

Incomparable spear energy.

It felt like the energy of heaven and earth descended on that spear and envelope it with so kind of divine sharpness

Aeryon now understand why this man who does not possess the power of innate could fight him till this level and even overwhelm him.

This is a person who could also use internal energy or Kusa.

Internal energy user is not widespread whether it is in Yan, Roma, or even the Steppe. But it could be practiced.

So from trial and error, so from awakening, so from books.

It makes sense. It makes sense that Zarkha also mastered this kind of art

For Zarkha who had created such a ss in the Western Great Steppe, if he did not possess this kind of strength, how could he have survived all of those attack on his life.

Aeryon smiles, however.

"The system gives leisure but only through life and death battle, I could truly break through my own ntal state"

Aeryon has long notice sothing about the system. It could easily teach him skills he never knows and gives him power he did not train to get

But while it gave him knowledge, familiarity of the technique it did not give him the mindset.

Mindset always depends on you

And the mindset is the most important thing.

This is sothing he learned from Belarion. Belarion fast pace of improving in commanding his n and in fighting is inseparable from his own mindset

Pushing forward and believing in one own strength, carefreely moving, fight to heart content!

That is Belarion mindset

Different people have different mindset. Just like those Yan people said, all different Dao, all the sa Dao

Ten thousand paths, so curved, so straight, so go down, so fly up, in the end, the end point is the sa

Dao.

In a way, mindset is one Dao.

One path, one own belief.

Belief created Sword Gods and give them that air of invincibility that suppress all others with just their aura

Any of those people who have great titles and great abilities to move the world with their aura, all of them have this kind of belief.

The system could not give him that.

If the system could give him that Aeryon would be worried that the system would try to rewrite his own personality.

Aeryon look at the system more like a supplentary thing. He doesn’t know why. But the more he dreams of things, the more he is wary of this system that he has

There is just a feeling that there is sothing wrong with it

But right now, in this mont, where life and death is separated only by inches, his thought while scattered, quickly focused toward the mont and now, only him and the spear strike exist in his eyes and his mind

All of his thought suddenly disappears, and he only thought of this spear strike and what it ans

In that mont, he could feel it from Zarkha spear.

His own Dao and belief in every strike

In his world, one swings a sword and there is nothing. But in here belief manifest in your action

In a world of magic, more things are possible than in a world without magic

Aeryon see the spear changes route.

No, not changing routes.

But possible routes that it could take and it could attack.

There are not really many people in this world that can take this kind of attack. They would have been stab to death or pierce through by now.

But Aeryon is a normal person.

In that mont, all of his passive skill is activated. As for his active skill, he did not use it. His mind could not even think to use it

His body moves almost instinctively

The glaive moves.

Twist of the wrist, the air screams, the wind split into two and the tip of the glaive stabbed out

If this was a sword, it would be like a flash of lightning flashing.

But when it is using glaive, there is a certain crushing heaviness to it

The horse that Aeryon is sitting on is pressured so much that the hooves dig deep into the ground

ARGHH!
