Phantasmal Genesis

Chapter 51: Swordsman

Thats right.

From 7 am to 2 pm in the afternoon, this matched the time during the red dots activity, did that mean that he controlled this puppet in his dreams?

And Meng Ke was a man of action, his main body increased the distance between the human figure and stayed further away as Xuan Nv started to hypnotise Luo Chao.

If it was a puppet that was controlled in his sleep, then all he had to do was to put him to sleep.

This was much easier than remotely using his spiritual power, he just had to guide his subconsciousness.

In just ten seconds, Luo Chao started to doze off, his head nodding off as the figure started materialising in the central square, it was flickering like a lagging character in a cartoon.

Aiyo! Whats this thing blocking the way?

It was originally an unblocked path, but as the human figure flickered, a passerby collided strongly against it.

And as the young man raised his head, there was nothing in front of him?

Eh? What knocked into me? He muttered strangely as he continued walking.

Inside the room, Luo Chao yawned. He didnt know why, but he was suddenly very sleepy, and just as he wanted to get up to go to his bed for a nap, he fell into a deep sleep on the floor with a loud bang after just two steps.

Fuck me! Where did this guy come from?

The flickering human figure suddenly became clear, and a handsome swordsman with long hair, a blue shawl around his shoulders and a long sword in his hands appeared.

Instantly, the eyes of a couple bulged as they stared in disbelief.

It was either that they were looking at a ghost, or they just went blind!

Such a huge guy that appeared without a sound, was standing in front of them, it felt as though they had a ghost sighting in broad daylight!

They felt goosebumps all over their body as they reached for their phones, wanting to take a picture. But before they could, the human figure moved.

He ran speedily forwards, and the couple rushed to pull out their phones and aimed their cameras at him, and in the next second, shouts of amazement suddenly came from their mouths.

Meng Ke was standing not too far away, and when the human figure appeared earlier, his spiritual thread actually snapped!

This had never happened to him before!

Meng Ke was surprised, and then he noticed. The handsome swordsman was looking at him with a cold gaze, filled with hostility!

His brain spun into action as Meng Ke watched the swordsman run towards him with a sword in hand, and a scabbard in the other.

Ive been lied to?

Meng Ke was surprised, did this person actually find out his ability from day one, knew how to use it, and his reaction from earlier was completely faked?

But, how would he explain the shamefulness that was in his subconsciousness? Was this something he could fake as well?

Meng Ke believed that Luo Chao wasnt that capable!

And as he thought, Meng Ke glanced at the swordsman. As though he hadnt seen the killing intent in his eyes, he simply turned and walked away unbothered.

With Xuan Nv around, as long as he took off the limit on Xuan Nvs access to his spiritual power, with a physique that was five times better than the swordsman, he could have her test run her combat data.

And watching Meng Ke leave, the swordsman took it as a sign of arrogance, and his gaze instantly got colder as his steps got faster.

And just as the distance between them closed to 30 meters, he swung his sword outwards as a cold light shot out.

Hasaki! (Chinese meme from a video game character, something like omae wa mou shindeiru.)

And as he finished speaking, the cold light bursts forwards as the air was split, rippling in waves.

Bang!

But as the cold light shot forwards, after a loud sound, it seemed as though it had collided with an invisible barrier after 10 meters and was blocked completely.

All of this happened in a flash, and after a blink of an eye, the air that was split had swept up the dust from the ground.

A loud sound exploded in the air, shocking everyone in the central square as they turned their heads.

Did something explode?

Whats that guy wearing? Hes handsome! Is he cosplaying the swordsman from Fantasy Westward Journey?

The swordsman paused as his eyes stared at the empty space before him, there was nothing there, but his sword was completely stopped by a barrier that was incredibly sturdy.

Suddenly, a frightening sense of danger came from behind him, and the swordsman instinctively turned around.

There was nothing in the air, yet he felt a sharp blade clash against his weapon, and with a loud clang, the reverberation from the collision numbed his hand.

Following the combat sense that seeped deeply into his bones, he stepped forwards the moment his sword clashed, sliding against the blade in front of him as he pushed upwards.

As a swordsman, when he attacked, his sword hilt would be parallel with his upper body. And facing this invisible opponent, the swordsman gathered his energy, which was quickly dissipated.

At such a close distance, he was confident in ending this battle with one move.

But, he missed, and even before he could react, the invisible sword swung towards his way again.

At this moment, he was still concentrating on his attack. He didnt even have the time to react, much less dodge.

It didnt take long for the invisible blade to collide with his clothes.

Bang!

Atmospheric pressure exploded forth from his body, and this time, every single passerby could see a protective layer of Chi blocking this attack, causing a strong wind to blow in his surroundings. (The term used here was , if anyone knows a better translation for this, please let me know.)

At the same time, the tip of the swordsmens feet dug into the ground as he retreated six steps, widening their distance by ten meters.

Who are you, and why are you attacking me?

The swordsmans voice was deep and powerful, and as he spoke, he stared forwards warily in extreme concentration with a tensed body.

Just as he had awoken from his deep slumber, a sharp pain had come from his mind, and he immediately spotted the person who had attacked him standing among the crowd with a bright red health bar above his head.

The red health bar represented an enemy, and it was in his instinct to charge forwards and attack.

But he didnt expect the unbothered glance the man had thrown his way, as well as the invisible attack that made him feel utterly powerless.

In just two exchanges, he knew that it would be difficult for him to defeat this enemy.

And so, he decided to go all out.

His questioning was just his way of stalling, he was waiting for his Chi to replenish and adjust himself into the optimal state for combat.

He detested fighting, but he also detested enemies.

In the swordmans heart, he believed that what didnt kill him made him stronger.

And to his delight, the enemy did not attack again.

As the action paused, the surrounding people started to react to what they had just watched with unblinking eyes.

What did I just see! Isnt that sword Qi!

Oh god! Am I dreaming!? This isnt real!

Wait! Shouldnt we be formally asking for an apprenticeship right now!?

Master! Please accept this bow from your disciple!
