Han Sen's voice wasn't loud, but the Very High and some of the silkworms were watching the fight. They all heard what Han Sen had said.
"How arrogant!
You are not worthy! "Liyu Zhen grunted.
He was indeed arrogant. It wasn't just Liyu Zhen. Open Sky Elder and the elites who had placed their bets on Han Sen to win first place thought Han Sen was being too arrogant.
The path was the universe, and the universe was the path. Han Sen's words made it sound like the universe existed because of Han Sen. If Han Sen died, the universe would die.
Throughout the ages, there had been many true god elites, but none of them had dared to say such a thing. Although there weren't many true god elites, there were always a few in every era. No one knew how many of them had died, but the universe had never been destroyed because of their deaths. And Han Sen was just a half-deified who had just become a half-deified.
Arrogance wasn't enough to describe what Han Sen had just said. It was ignorance.
Everyone misunderstood what Han Sen meant. When he said "I," he wasn't referring to himself. He was referring to everyone.
Everyone was a chess piece. It seemed like fate controlled everything. But without these chess pieces, what was the point of having a chessboard?
No matter how good a chessboard was, it was still a dead object. The chess pieces that made up the game were the true path. If there were chess pieces, there would be a path. If there were no chess pieces, there would be no path.
Han Sen understood the crux of the matter. He felt as if he had just been enlightened. That was why he had blurted out those words.
Everyone else thought Han Sen was just being arrogant and ignorant. Only Exquisite and Li Keer could feel Han Sen's heart and mind. Their eyes flashed with a strange light.
Han Sen's feelings were their feelings. They were completely immersed in the mind of Under the Sky. That mind was so strong that they had only seen it from a few of the Very High elites.
But today, they had the same feelings and feelings. How could they not be surprised?
"This mind … It's not like an ordinary deified elite …" Li Keer looked conflicted. She was happy, but she also found it hard to believe that Han Sen, who was only half-deified, had been able to understand such a mind.
Han Sen's Under the Sky knife skills had improved. Before, he had only been using the knife. Now, the knife had his own understanding. It was like it had a life of its own.
Han Sen hadn't been hurt by Shale, but it felt as if he could be killed at any moment. Han Sen had just been holding on.
But now, things were different. Han Sen was still being suppressed by Shale, but it felt as if he had suddenly become much more relaxed. Despite being in such a dangerous situation, he made people feel as if they were taking a stroll in the park. He didn't feel as nervous or oppressive as before.
Han Sen used his hand as a knife. Before, his knife skills were very square. It made people feel as if he was deliberately setting things up. But now, Han Sen was doing it so casually. He seemed to be casually swinging his knife, but he was achieving the same effect as before. In fact, the effect was even better than before.
"The sky and the ground are chess pieces, and I am the chess pieces. Every breath is a path."
Han Sen was completely immersed in the mind of Under the Sky. As his understanding deepened, his knife skills became more and more casual. But that casual nature of his was in accordance with the rules of the universe. When he swung his knife, it made Shale feel very uncomfortable.
Yes, it was uncomfortable. Although Han Sen wasn't giving him any real pressure, Shale still felt as if something was wrong.
He couldn't put his finger on what was wrong, but it felt as if something was wrong.
The mountain wasn't right. The rocks weren't right. Everything was wrong. It was like everything was blocking him. And Han Sen was like a fish in water. It was like everything was helping Han Sen. It made Shale feel very uncomfortable.
"This … Isn't this the Sky and Men Combined Together of the Very High's Very High Sense?"
Li Chun Qiu and the others who had practiced the Very High Sense all stared at Han Sen with wide eyes. It was as if they had seen a ghost.
Practicing the Very High Sense allowed one to reach Sky and Men Combined Together. One could become one with the universe and use the power of everything in the universe.
But that was a power that only those who had practiced the Very High Sense could achieve. Exquisite had barely touched the edge of it. She was far from being able to truly reach Sky and Men Combined Together.
Han Sen definitely hadn't practiced the Very High Sense, but he had used the knife skills he had derived from the Textless Book to achieve the same effect as the Very High Sense's Sky and Men Combined Together. How could Li Chun Qiu and the others not be shocked?
Because they had practiced the Very High Sense, their emotions were much calmer than most people's. But even so, Li Chun Qiu and the others were shocked.
"This kid … is really strange …" Elder Tian Qi was stunned for a long time before he said this sentence.
Although he and Qiyu Elder hadn't practiced the Very High Sense, they had seen a pig run before. They had seen a lot of it, so they knew what the Very High Sense was all about.
Now, seeing the knife skills Han Sen was using were very similar to the Sky and Men Combined Together of the Very High Sense, they were shocked.
Han Sen didn't think too much about it, though. He was completely immersed in the knife mind.
Every blade of grass, every tree, every mountain, every water, every dust particle, and every bacterium in the universe seemed to have a meaning in his eyes. It was as if they were connected to his knife skills.
"Everything in the world is a chess piece, and every chess piece has its own function. Only when all the chess pieces are connected together can there be a chess game. Chess pieces that seem unrelated are, in fact, all connected. Every chess piece can affect the direction of the entire chess game. What I need to do is to become the chess piece that can change the chess game."
Han Sen kept learning. "I don't need any special powers. I just need to perform where I am needed the most. If I am in the water, I am a fish. If I am in the sky, I am a bird. If I am in the sky, I am a bird. If I follow the rules of the universe, I will help the universe …"
Han Sen's knife skills were becoming more and more casual. Even though it looked like a casual attack, it was causing more and more trouble for Shale.
The Very High, who had been laughing at Han Sen for his arrogance, were now frozen. Han Sen, who had been at a disadvantage, suddenly didn't seem to be at a disadvantage.
Shale's attacks, on the other hand, were starting to feel stiff. They weren't as smooth as they had been before.
"Interesting … This is very interesting … Using Under the Sky Knife skills to create Sky and Men Combined Together … The old guys of the Very High must be so jealous that they are going crazy …" Yu Shan-shin watched Han Sen's knife skills. His lips curled up into a weird smile that no one could understand.
