Chapter 411
Chapter Title: Heavenly Realm
I decided to stay a bit longer in the imperial palace before following the Cult Leader. There was something nagging at me. In the empty bedroom of my inner palace, I muttered to myself.
"Why didn't I see Miyamoto Musashi?"
It didn't make sense.
Even after deploying all my detection abilities, I felt nothing in the place where Miyamoto Musashi was. Until the Cult Leader pressured him into revealing himself, that spot was as empty as thin air. Yet the Cult Leader had noticed Musashi was there.
The difference between the Cult Leader and me—it had to be his enlightenment in the Void Ultimate. I didn't know what that meant exactly, but I could guess it allowed the Cult Leader, who had reached a profound realm of martial arts, to detect Musashi.
But that surface-level explanation wasn't enough to satisfy me.
What principle allowed Miyamoto Musashi to hide so perfectly? Even the ninjas of the East, renowned for their supreme stealth, couldn't achieve that level. In fact, I could sense the
who had reached a profound realm of martial arts, to detect Musashi.
