Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? - Chapter 344: Seeing Through Your Life

Chapter 344: Seeing Through Your Life

Reverend Karma’s Buddha’s Wrath Fire Fist drew upon the power of his personal Small World.

So did Chen Huaian’s Sword Curtain and Liyuan technique—his core power also came from his Small World. And now, with Liyuan’s “using softness to overcome strength” effect, it was equivalent to combining both Small Worlds’ strength and hurling it back at Reverend Karma in the form of his own technique.

The speed? At least twice that of Reverend Karma’s original Fire Fist.

A deafening explosion rocked the air as the fire fist came crashing down.

A shockwave a hundred zhang tall swept mud, grass, and debris in every direction, only to be blocked firmly by Chen Huaian’s sword curtain like an impenetrable wall.

Everything at the scene—except for Clearwater Pool and Reverend Karma—was untouched.

【Kid, that’s not just entry-level Liyuan, is it?】

Zhang Yibai’s voice rang out in Chen Huaian’s mind, stunned:

【I just taught you Liyuan and you already mastered it?!】

【And you said you didn’t have a cheat! I don’t buy it, brat—you lied to an old-timer who’s lived for thousands of years!】

“Bro Zhang, you’ve got it wrong. This isn’t a cheat—it’s my Dao body. The Origin Dao Physique.”

Chen Huaian’s expression was dead serious—

Because even after taking that hit, the old monk still wasn’t dead.

【What?! You actually have the Origin Dao Physique?!】

“Yup. Is that super rare? Feels pretty mid to me~”

The sound of Zhang Yibai gasping filled his mind.

Meanwhile, Reverend Karma had fused the power of his Small World into himself and transformed into a giant golden Buddha over a hundred zhang tall.

【Origin Dao Physique?! You’ve got that?!】

Zhang Yibai babbled on:

【Kid, do you know the very first person to ascend in the Cangyun Realm was born with the Origin Dao Physique? He was called the First Immortal—it’s likely he’s now a Celestial King or even a Celestial Emperor in the Immortal Realm… which means you’ve got a very high chance of ascending too!】

“Celestial King? Celestial Emperor?” Chen Huaian blinked. “Wait… has no immortal from the upper realm ever come down to the Cangyun Realm?”

【No.】

Zhang Yibai’s denial was firm.

【There’s some kind of barrier between Cangyun and the Immortal Realm. Once someone ascends, they can’t come back down. I think that’s actually a good thing—if immortals could descend at will, wouldn’t Cangyun fall into chaos?】

“Then can cultivators in Cangyun still contact immortals in the upper realm?”

【They used to.】

Zhang Yibai’s tone grew uncertain.

【I remember stories from long ago—cultivators receiving divine techniques in dreams from ancestral immortals… If legends exist, they’re not without basis. But for the past few thousand years, no one’s heard of that happening.】

“Any reason for that?” Chen Huaian asked.

【No idea. It just stopped. And fewer and fewer cultivators have been able to ascend. It’s been several millennia since the last one.】

Chen Huaian chuckled and casually threw out,

“What if… the reason no one’s heard from them and no one’s come back is because all the immortals up there are… dead?”

Zhang Yibai went silent for a long while.

He seemed to be seriously considering the possibility.

“Just kidding, bro.”

Chen Huaian now gripped Chenjian with both hands, his aura honed to a razor’s edge.

The Buddha-shaped Reverend Karma now brought his palm down.

The golden hand came with the force of heaven collapsing, like the palm of the Buddha himself.

What he’d summoned wasn’t some visual trick—this was the true body of a Buddha, condensed from the power of his Small World.

Chen Huaian couldn’t tell which Buddha specifically—after all, their two worlds didn’t share the same mythology.

But one thing was clear—

For a Void Fusion Buddhist cultivator to use this technique, he was definitely going all in. And it did carry the majestic aura of a real Buddha.

【Kid, don’t be intimidated by all that flash. I still can’t see what’s happening outside, but I can sense it—Reverend Karma’s on his last legs. Just find his weakness and one sword will end it!】

Hearing that, Chen Huaian, who had originally been preparing to clash directly, narrowed his eyes.

A weak point, huh?

Why waste energy if you can win smart?

But… the Azure Lotus Sword Canon didn’t have any sword forms to locate weaknesses.

Then again, in a different sense, seeing through weaknesses was all about time.

If time could be slowed down, even the most perfect technique would reveal its flaws.

With a heart as clear as still water, Chen Huaian stood with his sword on his back.

The moment he closed his eyes, immortal verse echoed from the heavens:

“This moon we see today once lit the ancient past.”

Sword Form Six – The Moon Shines on All Eras.

As the words fell, moonlight swept over the blazing sun.

Everything cleared—the world bathed in silver radiance, the vast sky reflected like a mirror.

In that mirror-world,

Reverend Karma and even the spectators behind the sword curtain moved in extreme slow motion.

Chen Huaian opened his eyes and stared straight at him.

In that moment, he glimpsed the monk’s entire life—

From a novice monk to a revered elder of Burning Purity Holy Land.

He chanted sutras, practiced stances, worked tirelessly to fix his flaws, and eventually entered the Void Fusion Realm, capable of summoning a Buddha’s true form.

These fragmented images flashed through Chen Huaian’s mind in an instant.

And then—he saw it.

Two crimson threads stretched from the massive golden palm to the monk’s chest, weaving together at his wrist. The red lines quivered like rippling water.

The giant hand continued its slow descent.

Chen Huaian simply took a single step forward.

Raised his arm.

Swung his sword.

And tapped lightly at the intersection of the red threads.

With a sharp rip,

The divine golden palm—so mighty and filled with world force—tore apart like a sheet of paper.

This slow-motion world existed only in Chen Huaian’s perception.

In truth, time hadn’t slowed down at all.

To the watching cultivators, it was simple:

The great palm had come crashing down—earth trembled—

But Chen Huaian took one step forward and flicked his sword—

And the palm was blown apart, reduced to glowing shreds in a cloud of dust.

“…That move was strong.”

Chen Huaian glanced at the stunned Reverend Karma.

Then looked at his mana bar—it had dropped by a third.

Nice as it was, this move wasn’t one to spam.

The Buddha-form lost its hand.

World power poured from the wound.

Reverend Karma immediately canceled the technique.

Behind him, his Small World was cracked, a piece missing—

For Void Fusion cultivators, this was a critical injury to their very foundation.

Sure enough—

The monk clutched his chest and spat out blood.

His aged face now pallid and lifeless.

“Your sword… it sees through illusions?”

“No.” Chen Huaian shook his head, smiling.

“This Venerable One merely stood atop the flow of time—

And saw through your entire life.”

Reverend Karma’s expression twisted, clearly recalling something terrifying.

He no longer wanted to fight.

He threw on a purple-gold kasaya—

And vanished from the spot the next second.

“Pointless,” Chen Huaian muttered, eyes fixed on the empty air where the monk had stood.

“If I’ve seen your life—

Unless you surpass me by a realm,

You’ll never escape my sword.”

“The bright moon rises from Tianshan, over endless clouds and sea.”

He didn’t draw his sword.

Only moonlight rose beneath his feet.

“Ten thousand miles of long wind—blows past the Jade Gate Pass.”

The immortal verse fell.

That moonlight shot into the sky, chasing the fleeing figure across the vast horizon.
