A peculiar internal style with very narrow application, and one almost solely focused on defensive techniques. Practiced by most angels, it is almost entirely focused on getting close enough to a foe to subdue him without harming him, with maximal speed, safety, and precision. The movement techniques in this style are very popular and often borrowed by other schools, such as the Unlimited Chariot Sprinting technique which, when practiced properly, allows running at incredible speed over long distances without tiring. The student of this school is taught to endure all kinds of harm, hardship, and exhaustion in the pursuit of his quarry, and in doing so develops a truly unique constitution, resiliency, and ability to channel internal force.
Though it is commonly perceived to have no offensive applications, a quirk of this school is that due to its energy conservation techniques, a trained master who has practiced them for an extremely long time is capable (or so I have heard) of unleashing attacks of staggering power, aimed at felling dangerous or impossible to subdue foes. Such an technique must be delivered at extremely close range and can take a phenomenal amount of concentration and cultivation of internal force. Only the oldest extant angels proficient in this style are said to be capable of this ‘ten thousand year evil-quelling fist’ style – those that have been alive for an age or more. If any of them truly exist and can be roused to action, it would be a most terrible sight indeed.”
Is Jugg's head actually being grabbed by Vig? You can see the outline of her head-spikes in both bottom shots, so if the blast is emerging from Vig's palm while he stopped her charge with one hand, that's impressively brutal

Remember when someone said that White Chains was angry at Allicio because of possible collateral damage?
Jacob Powell
Great Chariot Cannon is such a raw name for an attack
It was partially out of worry that Alicio was as going to be another demiurge who didn’t care about the mountains of corpses left in their wake, not just the collateral damage.

Based VG quickly became one of my favourite characters of the comic. "Gentle but inmensely OP" types are the best.

The liturgy explains that this is a non lethal art and only a practitioner with thousands of years of experience could hope to accomplish an attack like that. He knows what he's doing.

Now to be fair, in vigilant gaze's defense, he DID finish saying the prayer of forgiveness before hand. I think that clears him of any guilt or responsibility going forward in this fight.
I mean, to be fair, when she actually did sit out on Alison's adventures it honestly did result in probably tens of thousands of deaths (the youngling priests in Mammon's paradise, two demiurges duking it out, the subsequent skirmishes over the mountain of gold coins that spilled out from the vault), here it just shows she really is irresponsible with power, which she is. She wielded nearly incomprehensible power with all the skill of a savage with a sharp rock and made a mockery of White Chain as a teacher.
