Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1586
Obviously, even [Train] himself didn't react at all. How could the evil spirit in his body be suddenly dispelled completely?

But the demonic energy that has been defeated won't joke with anyone.

Immediately, after the [Train] suddenly attacked Lan En, it offset the inertia of the forward charge and immediately turned around and rushed towards Lan En, wanting to kill this human within a few seconds after getting close to him.

It fell to the ground completely powerless!

The demonic energy was temporarily emptied, causing the [Train] to fall into a state of complete powerlessness.

It couldn't even hold up its own wheels, which were now lying flat on the ground, even pressing down on its paws.

Its cat-like ears drooped, and its long, straight black hair, cut into a princess style, was draped behind it.

The pink kimono spread out on the dark ground makes the train look charming and lovable at the same time.

And up to this moment, Lan En's physical strength, which had been temporarily enhanced by [Zanxin], had not yet subsided.

The increase in the power of [Full Moon Killing Technique] has just disappeared.

He used these two temporary enhancement techniques almost to the limit, and the damage was fully inflicted!

Seeing that [Train] was now panting and looking at him with her surprisingly full chest heaving violently, Lan En's hand made a crisp "click" sound.

That was the sound of Smaug's gauntlet suddenly gripping the hilt of the knife.

Just in time! Lan En was about to stab the Sword of the Lady of the Lake directly into the chest of Train!

However, the sound of scales rubbing against rocks forced Lan En to turn around immediately!

The long knife that was originally held forward to stab was now across his chest.

The Night Sword God, who had just deployed Chang An, finally caught up with the pace of the [Train] which was charging forward but was suddenly knocked down.

Looking at the long sword across Lan En's chest, Yatogami, who had already had a shadow of [Water-Shaped Sword·Against the Wave],

But at this moment, after rushing forward, he stopped abruptly for a moment.

Yato-gami, who has been crowned as a god and worshipped for a long time by Saito Dosan, is not unaware of the power of human martial arts.

It even roughly understood that this kind of martial art requires extremely strict timing.

Saito Yoshitatsu used the power of the spirit stone to make it go crazy until it degenerated from a god representing the Japanese soul to a monster representing the wild soul.

But it is the temperament that is confused, making it violent and more inclined to act violently without thinking.

But just now it was almost ripped open by Lan En, it couldn't help but think!
He pretended to charge immediately, but stopped at the last moment, hoping to disrupt Lan En's timing and rhythm. This was the countermeasure that Night Sword God came up with after thinking about it.

It indeed seized the opportunity at this moment.

After all, its deterrent power is there, and even Lan En wouldn't want to stand there stupidly and take its attack.

Once it starts moving, Lan En will have to respond.

And as long as it is responded to, it will be a flaw!
Seeing Lan En holding the knife across his chest, he also made a very concealed but extremely skillful and deep shaking movement.

Even though Yatoshin didn't understand the essence of this exquisite martial art, he instinctively felt a sense of security that 'there is no danger anymore'.

But just when Yatoshin realized that he had successfully disrupted Lan's rhythm and was about to use his strong muscles and demonic energy to bounce his huge body and stab down with the blade on his head,
That sense of security came quickly and went away just as quickly!

A feeling of horror instantly swept through Yatogami's body.

And underneath it
Lan En had already used the movement of swinging the sword horizontally just now to smoothly put the Sword of the Lady of the Lake back into the scabbard at his waist.

By the way, he also stuck a [Water Binding Talisman] on the opening of the scabbard.

Lan En himself had already bent slightly, like a strong bow ready to be fired!

The soil and weeds on Yatogami's back, which had been silent for years, suddenly shook at this moment.

[Water-Shaped Sword·One Heart]!
Even Ye Dao Shen didn't see clearly when Lan En pulled out the blade a small section. Or maybe he had actually pulled out the blade but hadn't completely retracted it, so only a small section was exposed?

But no matter what, when Aarondette inserted the leaf spring structure back into the scabbard, it made a slight "click" sound.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Countless sharp and thin sword traces were left, and suddenly exploded in the air with a light blue water mist!

The [Water-Binding Talisman] attached to the edge of the scabbard was torn apart by the blade when the sword was drawn, and the water power contained in it was entangled on the Sword of the Lake Girl.

Even in the gray and dark, the obvious change in air density caused by [One Heart] still makes the cross-sections swept by the blade appear with different degrees of refraction.

Like broken mirrors.

In just an instant, a layer of mist covered [Train] and Yatogami's bodies.

Both of them were completely soaked by the power of water.

All attacks after this will be transmitted through this layer of hazy water vapor into the deep of their bodies, causing significantly deeper injuries.

[Train] still couldn't move. Although it was in darkness at this time, its demonic energy had not recovered enough to support its body.

I could only watch Lan En's actions.

Yatogami is much better in comparison.

Although [Yixin] cut its body into criss-cross patterns and covered it with knife marks, many of its scales were chopped off and lifted up.

But at least the demonic energy was not exhausted, which is crucial for the monster.

At this moment, Lan En took a small step to the side as if hinting at something.

Just now he thought he had disrupted Lan En's rhythm, but the next moment he was chopped into pieces like this. With a layer of water mist hanging on his body, Ye Dao Shen was like a frightened bird.

The huge snake body suddenly retreated in the opposite direction of Lan En's movement.

The movement was quick and clean, as if the snake's body was made of rubber bands. But just as he pulled his huge body back, Yatogami suddenly trembled all over!
After taking that step, Lan En did not follow the pace and instead retracted his position.

The previous step was just to force Yatogami to move according to his wishes.

And now. It's in place.

"hiss!!!"

The thick and long snake body suddenly tensed up and let out a hissing sound.

And under its body were the two pools of scorching flames that had just been smashed out by the [Train] with its flail!

In a very dark environment, this flame will not go out easily!
If it was just the flames, Yato God would not be afraid at all, and might not even feel much.

But the problem is, it still has the water power of the [Water Binding Talisman] on it!
The light blue mist spread all over his body and reacted miraculously with the flames under Yatogami within two seconds.

It's not like normal fire and water, where one destroys the other.

In the worldview of Yin-Yang magic, two different basic forces are mixed together, and the final result is - [Chaos]!
The light blue water and the bright fire, the two forces began to mix unstoppably on Yato God's body, and finally turned into a deep and chaotic black-purple energy!

It enveloped Yatogami's entire body like mist.

As for Yatogami's own demonic energy, even though it was in constant darkness, it seemed as if its replenishment was cut off, and it could not be recovered no matter what.

Not only is it impossible to recover, the demonic energy seems to have ceased to exist and cannot even be mobilized!

The so-called "chaos" means that things affected by this power will fall into complete confusion and lose control.

[Train] originally had fire on its body, but Lan En had previously emptied it of its demonic energy, so now there was nothing left on its body. Instead, only the power of water that had soaked into it remained, which was unable to mix and form a [chaotic] ​​state.

[Train]'s demonic energy is now rising again, but Lan En's target is no longer it.

The long sword that had just been put back into the scabbard at the end of [One Heart] was now smoothly drawn out again by Lan En.

Subconsciously, he also made a brilliant silver knife flower.

But in terms of pace, Lan En approached the Night Sword God step by step in a leisurely manner.

This is not a psychological tactic or intimidation tactic. Although Yatogami has just demonstrated the ability to think, it is still a monster that is bewitched by the spirit stone.

It will panic, but it will not be so scared that it dares not fight or collapse.

This leisurely pace is actually a prerequisite for learning a martial art.

This martial art might be Lan En's most powerful single-target attack technique since he started fighting.

【Wuxiang Sword】

As the name suggests, it is a technique that allows one to slowly adjust one's state to a state of no thoughts and no ideas while leisurely walking, until the moment of drawing the sword.

The performance of this move looked like he was just walking over slowly and then swinging the knife casually and unremarkably.

Compared to the [Ashina Style] who can easily bring out air blades.

The weapon skills of the New World can cause a light red flame of fighting spirit to flash.

Yharnam's [Acceleration Technique] can turn a person into a wisp of smoke.

The [Combat Skills] of the Fire World can leave a supernatural white afterimage behind the trajectory of the action.

The outward performance of this martial art was completely mediocre, even a bit like a layman swinging a sword casually.

But it is really strong!

During Lan En's learning process, he directly believed that this martial art should belong to the "practical exploration of philosophical thinking in martial arts."

This should even be a practice that affects the mind and spirit, rather than a technique used to actually kill people.

It is more academic than practical.

Using it to chop people is probably equivalent to "asking a pioneer scholar in theoretical mathematics to effectively and thoroughly guide the construction and operation of a steel furnace".

But once this happens and it actually works it can be really powerful!
Just like that, Lan En, under the conditions that he had carefully calculated and created before, leisurely walked towards Yatogami who was in a state of [chaos].

His eyes were unfocused, so they looked empty and lifeless, yet unusually deep.

It’s like my entire mind has drifted to an unknown place, or even if it still exists?
But after he casually took six steps and swung the knife.

Even though it didn't understand anything at all and was still quite far away from the [Train] whose demonic aura was about to re-emerge, its body couldn't help but tremble violently!
Arondate slipped sideways and passed in front of Yatogami's belly.

It was as smooth and unobstructed as if it was cut into the air.

In theory, although the Sword of the Lake Lady has adapted to Lan's body size, the length of its blade is definitely not as long as the diameter of the Night Sword God's body.

It’s hard to say whether it can exceed the radius!
But after one strike, Yatogami's body, which had been struggling and twisting in a state of [chaos], suddenly stopped moving.

After a moment, black mist and golden liquid spurted out from the slowly emerging slender blade.

Finally, the whole snake was cut in half, revealing a smooth cut.

Those lengths that should not have been touched by the blade also appeared to be no different.

After making this cut, Lan En stood there for a while before coming to his senses.

But he still lowered his head and played with the Sword of the Lady of the Lake, as if he was savoring some feeling.

Holding the handle of the knife in one hand, the blade was placed on the palm of the other hand, and the fingers were rubbing it.

In this state, he turned his head to look at the [train] that was standing there, and just realized that he was alone.
