Chapter 486: Submission
Levi.
In a beautiful estate filled with black tulips, a little girl in a nightgown screams in a room with a velvet bed. She wakes up, calling out, "Dad... I..."
She quickly gets out of bed and goes to another secret room.
In the secret room, candles are lit in four corners, and a man with a dog's head lies on the ground, surrounded by ritual items.
No, that's not a 'dog-headed man,' but a middle-aged man wearing a black dog skin.
"Dad..."
Ayu rushes forward and takes out a silver bottle containing an arcane elixir.
A pungent odor fills the air, causing one to frown involuntarily.
However, Karl's eyelids twitch violently, and he suddenly sneezes, waking up. "I..."
"Dad, what's wrong? Don't scare me..."
Ayu's voice trembles with tears.
"I'm fine... or rather, I feel better than ever."
Karl looks at his hands, "I seem to have obtained a secret transmission of Heart Division Martial Arts - Magical Fist?"
"Is... is that what that being did?"
Ayu shivers, and her tone becomes respectful.
"You must not speak of that being's name and must show respect..."
Karl remains silent for a moment before speaking.
They have been subjected to the 'Dog-Headed Vajra Oral Secret' empowerment ritual! They can no longer reveal any important information.
Even in their hearts, they feel that being's figure is so majestic, tall, and worthy of respect and worship.
They are willing to dedicate everything, especially after studying Esoteric Martial Arts, they view the Master of Esotericism as a 'Deity.'
"Is... is he... or rather, It... a Deity?"
Ayu's voice trembles slightly, and as an extraordinary being of the Heart Path, her understanding of the Spirit Realm is far greater than that of ordinary extraordinary beings. She knows that above the 'Immortal' level, there are even more majestic and terrifying existences.
"Above the 'Immortal' level, there are true 'Angels,' and above the 'Angels' are the indescribable 'Deities.' 'Deities' have various aspects and occasionally visit the shallower layers of the Spirit Realm."
Karl sighs, "Perhaps... we encountered a true Deity in disguise! It played a prank on us and generously bestowed knowledge upon us..."
"Yes... knowledge."
Ayu's face shows fear, and with a slight recollection, she unearths many memories.
It is a secret transmission containing various methods to stimulate physical cultivation and harsh mental training, as well as the final application.
In her mind, Esoteric Martial Arts knowledge converges, forming a crimson codex.
This secret transmission exudes a strong rust scent, and with a slight thought, she hears the sound of pages turning.
On the cover page of the secret transmission, a line of blood-red text appears:
【Within the trials of blood and fire, the heart's martial arts flourish...】
"Is this the Deity's secret transmission? Can we learn from it?"
Ayu's expression is solemn. She is no novice in the arcane arts and knows that lower-tier extraordinary beings who forcefully read higher-tier secret transmissions may fall into madness.
"I fear... we have already learned it, and it has become our physical instinct."
Karl ponders for a moment, and a wry smile appears on his face.
At this moment, Ayu also notices that her body seems to have become slightly more muscular, with additional muscles appearing, resembling a graceful female leopard.
"Alright, this is a good thing!"
Karl gently pats his daughter's head, "Extraordinary beings of the Heart Path have weak combat power in the real world. That's why the family needs to keep secrets. This time, those from the Heart Research Society have betrayed us, revealing our personal information, and we've been eliminating them one by one. In the face of modern firepower, we have little resistance, but now... things are different."
Extraordinary beings of the Heart Path excel at protecting themselves and keeping their identities secret.
Unfortunately, this time, their own associates have rebelled, leading to the exposure of personal information of some family members, and they are being traced and eliminated.
Even his daughter has been 'captured' in the Spirit Realm.
Soon, someone will likely come knocking on their door in the real world.
Half an hour later.
Karl, accompanied by his daughter, prepares to board a steam locomotive.
After careful consideration, Karl decides that their current base is no longer safe and plans to relocate to another hidden estate.
Their butler and maid, unaware of the situation, assume their master is going on a vacation and help load the luggage into the trunk.
Suddenly!
Bang bang!
Several gunshots ring out.
The butler, maid, and male servant fall into a pool of blood, shocked and confused.
Karl and Ayu, on the other hand, react swiftly, taking cover behind the steam locomotive.
Through the glass, Ayu sees a group of black-clad gunmen approaching.
"It's them, the outsiders... We shared arcane knowledge and showed them the way, and they betrayed us!"
Ayu grits her teeth, looking at a gunshot wound on her arm.
In the past, she might have burst into tears.
In the midst of this, as if by instinct, her muscles writhed, and she 'ejected' a 'bullet', quickly stopping the bleeding, and the wound seemed to heal instantly...
"Human greed knows no bounds... Our ancestors set up some preventive measures, but in the Mystic Realm, anything is possible... It's normal for it to be deciphered."
Karl sighed, and his body suddenly pounced like a cheetah.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the eyes of the gunmen, Karl's figure suddenly transformed, splitting into three!
Each 'Karl' looked incredibly real, exuding an aura that terrified them!
"Fire!"
A black-robed gunman with a centipede-like scar on his face, drew his gun and shot.
Bullet after bullet hit the three Karls, but it was like shooting at the surface of the water, smoothly passing through their bodies without a drop of blood splattering.
"Foolish mortals..."
Aying watched all this with a sense of understanding.
In her eyes, Karl had charged straight ahead, but the gunmen were as good as blind, shooting aimlessly into the air and to the left and right.
"Magical Fist? For ordinary people, it's just creating an illusion, making them forever unable to escape..."
"Using the smallest force to achieve the greatest effect is also the true essence of Esoteric Martial Arts."
Aying seemed to understand.
Karl, on the other hand, was exhilarated. He felt his body was so powerful, and the strength of his heart-based martial arts lay in the mutual transformation between the heart and the body.
His heart power was, of course, incredibly strong.
At this moment, using the bridge of Esoteric Martial Arts, he could convert his heart power into physical strength, making him incredibly strong.
Whoosh! He raised his hand, grabbed a steam rifle, and twisted it casually.
The steam rifle's barrel was instantly twisted into a mess, causing it to explode, making the gunman cry out in pain.
"It's your turn... Uler!"
Wherever Karl went, the gunmen cried out and fell to the ground.
He came to the leader of the gunmen with the centipede scar, and with one hand, he lifted the leader up.
"You betrayed me, Uler!"
Karl approached the leader with the centipede scar. With one hand, he grabbed the leader and lifted him up.
"You betrayed me, Uler!"
Karl approached the leader with the centipede scar. With one hand, he grabbed the leader and lifted him up.
"You betrayed me, Uler!"
Karl approached the leader with the centipede scar. With one hand, he wants, and I'll make sure you pay for your betrayal..."
Karl's heart-based martial arts were incredibly powerful. With one hand, he grabbed the leader and lifted him up.
"You betrayed me, Uler!"
Karl approached the leader with the centipede scar. With one hand, he grabbed the leader and lifted him up.
