With widely opened bloodshot eyes, Ace puked a large amount of blood as the spear made with soul-type heavenly thunder pierced into his spine. Furthermore, he was feeling the approaching death, and he knew if he didn't do anything, he could forget about his life.
With extreme difficulty, a talisman coin appeared in his hand, which was none other than the Space Step Talisman, and he crushed it.
However, Ace was horrified when he found despite activating the space step talisman, nothing happened, and at this moment, the three other Heaven's Terminate Manifestations were only a few inches away from landing the killing blow!
Although the sword core was still absorbing the heavenly thunder as fast as it could, but as long as that spear was in his body, he was as good as dead.
'Damn it all!' Ace cussed while bleeding as he forgot about using the talisman since it won't be going to work because of the heavenly punishment. It was his first time trying to use it, and he finally understood why he couldn't run or hide from the heavenly punishment. He had to either die facing it or die trying.
In his desperate moment, many things flashed past his eyes, and then he finally remembered. Page-09 appeared in his hand, and the moment it did, the heavenly thunder channeling through his body suddenly started to funnel from his body into Page-09!
Ace instantly felt much relief, but he wasn't out of the woods and gritted his teeth before he activated the soul guardian and then the Apparition Wind Walk, expending a massive amount of Heavenly Soul Qi!
The Apparition Wind Walk was a soul movement art based on his Heavenly Wind element, and he never got the chance to use this strange yet powerful movement art despite learning it.
It wasn't because he wanted to but because it was simply too heavy on the Qi consumption side, and he has yet even to grasp the Sky Steps of the Misperception Sky Steps Art.
Furthermore, despite trying to learn the Apparition Wind Walk, he only managed to understand it at level-1, and there were a total of 9 levels. The reason for it was quite simple; Ace found that if he wanted to comprehend this movement art even further, he needed the understanding of Wind Law!
But with everything going on, he didn't have time to comprehend the Wind Law from scratch, and the Misperception Sky Steps Art was still more useful than level one of Apparition Wind Walk.
However, at this moment, when all of his martial Qi has been exhausted, and his life is hanging by a threat, he can only think of this movement skill.
The moment he activated the apparition wind walk, an ethereal red Qi suddenly gushed out from Ace, and then the next moment, his entire body turned blurry, like a ghostly figure.
Ace instantly felt the thunder spear losing from his spine, but the pain and suffering it caused made even someone like him groans in pain. But he couldn't delay any longer as the lance already seemed to be reaching the left side of his neck.
However, the injury in the spine was no joke, especially when it was caused by the heavenly thunder. His feet were as heavy as a mountain.
'Am I going to die?' Ace suddenly thought at this moment since he felt like it would be too late because he could escape this impending fate of death. His mastery of this movement art was still too shallow.
Suddenly, when the death was staring at his door, and his figure was still blurry because of the apparition wind walk, the words on Page-09 seemed to be shimmed in heavenly thunder, and the sword cores in this body were still releasing that strange energy which was keeping Ace alive, trembled.
Ace's eyes suddenly went black. No fear, no terror of death, or even pain could be found in them. They were simply emotionless.
Then right at this moment, his blurry red figure, because of the level-1 apparition wind walk, turned completely corporeal, and the spear holding him seemed to have lost its steadiness and then its target!
Furthermore, the lance which was about to pierce Ace's neck suddenly pierced into nothing, but Ace's ethereal figure was still there. It wasn't just that they seemed to be no longer capable of touching him.
Not only that, Ace's ethereal figure was slowly fading away even further until what was left was Page-09 in his hand. He was like the surrounding air, like the invisible wind.
The four Heaven's Terminate Manifestations were terrifying but still mindless. Furthermore, they could clearly 'see' where Ace was because he was still the target of the heavenly punishment.
But the problem was now they no longer seemed to touch him like the wind.
At this moment, Ace suddenly snapped out of his stupor and clearly returned to his eyes. He was shocked when he found himself surrounded by the four Heaven's Terminate Manifestations. Two of them were red, while the two were blue.
Furthermore, they continued to rain down attacks on him, but those attacks were getting past him like his body was not there at all.
The strangest thing was, the heavenly thunder of those four Heaven's Terminate Manifestations continued to suck in Page-09, and their mighty ten-meter large figures were slowly shrinking.
'Just what in the world?' Ace was utterly confused before he finally noticed a massive amount of his heavenly Soul Qi were keep getting dried up, and the reason for it was he was using the Apparition Wind Walk!
Suddenly vague comprehension started to appear in his mind, and it only took a few moments for him to understand what was going on.
His eyes widened in shock and disbelief because somehow, he fully understood the Apparition Wind Walk at level-4, which meant he should have at least 25% of Wind Law comprehension.
Not only that, but he was using a heavenly intent of Wind element, which enabled him to bypass those Heaven's Terminate Manifestations attacks!
