Chapter 304, Section 034: The Green Halberd, the Vertical Cloud Platform [Recommended BGM: Wake (studio)]

[BGM Recommendation: Wake (studio) - A playlist found on a certain cloud search platform, posted by Banana Bu Na Na Na (many Na)]

The world receded, and apart from the visible area at the dock, everything else was shrouded in black mist.

The surging fog was like a raging torrent or a stampede of ten thousand horses, stretching as far as the eye could see, with only a rumbling roar that could be heard, and countless plumes of dust rising in the distance.

Dark clouds rolled in, and rumbling thunder echoed, as if the end of the world was approaching.

Jin Ziyue poured all the remaining energy of the [Carbon Gas] into the Vajra Blade.

The slender blade grew larger again, with blue fluorescence adhering to it, constantly repairing the marks of battle and simultaneously thickening the blade.

Fu Qin placed her hand on the back of his hand, and through the warm touch, she felt as if she were receiving endless power.

Jin Ziyue could sense that Fu Qin's weak [Earth Carbon Qi] seemed to be fully mobilized and becoming more active under the influence of the incantation on his body.

The two streams of life-affirming energy, one large and one small, spread with the same frequency, as if the two people shared the same thoughts.

Despite being a woman, Fu Qin's fighting spirit is in no way inferior to Jin Ziyue's.

The turbulent air currents ruffled Fu Qin's hair, but she remained unfazed.

This was the first time Fu Qin had used this strange power, yet it wasn't as sluggish as she had imagined. The fluctuations of the Destiny Word were harmonious, as if Jin Ziyue was teaching her in her mind how to drive it, how to use it, and how to establish a connection and communication with the Destiny Word.

Pink particles slowly gathered from the weeds. Although they were not as numerous as the blue particles at first, the carbon that Fu Qin used did not come from the energy of the destiny words, but from everything that could be driven by the outside world.

The vast dust, grass, trees, and all living things, every tiny particle, felt the girl's warmth and unconsciously gathered towards them, slowly illuminating them with pink light.

Amidst the roaring waves, countless orbs of light gradually illuminated, and on the boundless sea, more and more glowing fireflies slowly rose into the sky.

The girl's affinity for the world far surpassed Jin Ziyue's. Jin Ziyue was used to relying on his accumulated energy, while the girl seemed to be favored by the world; whenever she called out, the whole world responded to her.

I wonder how many surprises Fu Qin has brought me this time.

Jin Ziyue's Vajra Longsword had transformed into a thick-backed broadsword, its blue and pink light constantly converging, faintly illuminating the small space around them.

The red and blue colors intertwine, swirl, and entwine, inseparable.

The mysterious energy, like a divine lament, resounded and sang, swirling and rising towards the heavens.

This time, we're betting all the energy of [Ethylene Carbon]!

Jin Ziyue and Fu Qin silently lowered their gazes, responding to Katsuhiko Kamiizumi with high morale!
Katsuhiko Kamiizumi could sense that this time, the opponent's sword was brimming with surging energy, enough to pose a threat to him.

Without further hesitation, he and the sword spirit in the void raised their katana high.

"I entered the Dao through swordsmanship, wielding the blade for over a hundred years, nurturing it with my heart and protecting it with my emotions. Fortunately, I gained spiritual insight, and thus learned that all things in the world have life. A hundred years to cultivate the mind, a thousand years to cultivate the realm, this body and the blade coexist, this heart and the sword's righteousness are connected, this emotion and the sword's soul merge, pursuing the highest realm!"

The swordsman's katana and the illusory image of the Heavenly Curtain Katana overlapped vertically, and the extended rainbow pierced through the clouds, dispelling most of the fog. With a loud boom, golden light slowly seeped through the clouds, covering an area of ​​several miles.

Golden light, like scales, wisps and strands, densely packed, as if there were truly immortals in the heavens, playing celestial music that did not exist in the mortal world, gracefully descending to earth.

"New Yin Flow, Heavenly Palace, Chapter of Celestial Music!"

Katsuhiko Kamiizumi's eyes flashed with intense light as he slashed his sword fiercely towards the sky.

Like a jade pillar collapsing in the heavens, a beam of light, following his swing of the sword, shifted its angle and crushed towards Jin Ziyue and Fu Qin!

"It's coming!"

Jin Ziyue and Fu Qin exchanged a word, and the latter nodded, letting the overwhelming pressure crash down upon them.

The particles gathered by the longsword suddenly blazed brightly, like a miniature sun born out of thin air. Intense energy fluctuations spread out, like an eagle soaring through the sky, fiercely meeting the sword saint's unparalleled sword strike.

The roaring sound made my eardrums throb painfully, and the two extremely powerful forces collided, making it difficult to open my eyes with a dazzling light.

This was the first time Fu Qin had fought alongside Jin Ziyue. She placed her hands on top of Jin Ziyue's hands, and the two were very close.

Standing beneath the opponent's strongest attack, I deeply felt the pressure and pain of the man, and I felt a sense of pride.

Her entire body, including her cheeks, was scratched by the leaked sword energy, leaving streaks of blood.

The boy next to her suffered just as much harm as she did.

The beach and pier were enveloped in golden light, and the forces of their clashes crushed each other.

Jin Ziyue's forehead veins bulged as he continuously supplied stronger power, causing particles to converge and fusion, transforming into a colossal beam reaching the heavens.

His will had never been so firm; for the one he loved, he poured out all the strength in his heart!

I will protect everything I want to protect!
"what--!"

"what--!"

Fu Qin and Jin Ziyue shouted in unison, their hearts seemingly resonating together, and they were instantly swallowed up by the light screen.

Both sides were bracing against the devastating blow, and for a time the battle reached a stalemate.

A voice, as faint as mist and rain, came from an unseen place.

“Son, you must understand, ‘What is martial arts, and what is the purpose of martial arts?’”

Jin Junlai's teachings still echo in my ears.

Jin Ziyue's eyes widened.

He saw that on the body of the Sword Saint, where he had swung his sword with all his might to destroy the world, there was a faint light, different from the blade's edge, but a soft light.

"Katsuhiko Kamiizumi's weakness is his lungs."

These were the words Jin Jun brought back before his death.

In an instant, Jin Ziyue understood.

"Kidney water and lung metal, it's time to sound the retreat!"

Old Jin's final palm strike concealed the "Sound the Retreat" technique into Katsuhiko Kamiizumi's lungs!

A third force emerged from the two opposing beams of light.

……

Meanwhile, in some dark corner.

Suddenly, the weapons flashed with golden light, and the iron rings jingled.

Clang—

In the void, it seemed to sense a call, trembling more and more violently. Suddenly, it began to spin faster and faster, transforming into a golden light in the blink of an eye, shooting towards the distant sky.

And in the small space it guarded, lay a man with his eyes still open, completely swallowed by darkness.

……

Old Jin's final blow wasn't ineffective; it was saved for himself!
Jin Ziyue's blood was boiling.

A faint golden light streaked across the sky.

As it spins at high speed, it seems as if you can hear the weapons, their eyes bloodshot, roaring and howling!

"The green halberd stands tall on the cloud platform!"
The halberd-like weapon hovered in mid-air, and Katsuhiko Kamiizumi stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "What?! You—"

He saw the gleaming golden halberd being held within the shimmering light of the armor. Within the armor, the man looked down at him, as if a god had descended from the heavens.

That was Jin Junlai's phantom image, a peak form where his essence, energy, and spirit were united!
Golden light swirled around the halberd, like a golden dragon coiling around it, and suddenly joined the beam of light. Jin Junlai swung the halberd at an angle, the tip of the halberd aimed straight at Kamiizumi Katsuhiko!

"A thousand soldiers and ten thousand horses! An army is coming!"
The halberd plunged straight in, moving through the blade of Katsuhiko Kamiizumi's sword without any hindrance, like a piece of cloth moving against the blade!

A thousand troops are broken!
Cutting through the blade's edge and cleaving through the sword's energy, the halberd appeared as thin as a toothpick amidst the clash of energies.

But in the blink of an eye, it pierced through Katsuhiko Kamiizumi's heart and lungs.

"Pfft." The Sword Saint grunted, and the energy from the clash began to wane, surging back like a tidal wave.

His sword spirit was terrified and abandoned its attack, turning around to hug Katsuhiko Kamiizumi tightly.

Then, a white tide came in—

boom--! !

While writing this chapter, I couldn't get into the mood, and it took me an hour to get into the flow, so I've saved up a draft. Just make sure it looks cool! PS: For some reason, this background music has been playing in my head while I've been writing battle scenes these past few days, and it also applies to the previous chapters.
