Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1144 The awakening of spiritual power!
"Is that the end?"

Shinichiro Busujima asked himself, but then he shook his head and denied his own idea.

As the head of the Busujima family and the inheritor of martial arts, he cannot give up just like that.

His eyes swept across the battlefield, seeing those fallen figures and those young and determined eyes. He understood that he must stand up and set an example for the Busujima family and all the disciples.

"Saeko, I'll leave the Busujima family in your care."

After this battle, no matter what the outcome, the Busujima family needs a new leader, someone who can lead the family forward.

And Saeko is the most suitable candidate in his mind.

Shinichiro Busujima took a deep breath, suppressed the fear and pain in his heart, stood up, held the knife in one hand, and launched a final charge towards the rock tiger.

His steps were firm, and every step he took showed the dignity and honor of a warrior.

His knife flashed across the rock tiger's body. Although it could not cause any damage, it aroused the rock tiger's anger and prompted it to attack more fiercely.

At this moment, the spiritual power released by Luther finally fell like a sweet rain on this land ravaged by war.

This spiritual power was warm and powerful. It was like an invisible force that tightly wrapped everyone in it, including Kuroki Gensai, Busujima Shinichiro, and those fighters and martial artists who were fighting against the monsters.

They felt an unprecedented power surging into their bodies, as if they were resonating with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, allowing their strength to make a qualitative leap in a short period of time.

Kuroki Gensai's ability of foresight suddenly came back to work at this moment.

He could clearly see the fish monster's attack trajectory and even predict its next move.

This ability was like a beacon in the darkness for him, illuminating his way forward. He took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and a series of punches and kicks fell on the fish monster like a rainstorm.

Those bodies that were once unable to be shaken even by guns were now dented by Kuroki Gensai's fists and feet, and even cracks appeared in some places!
The fish monster let out a shrill wail, and its attack became chaotic.

Kuroki Gensai seized the opportunity and punched the fish monster on the head with another heavy punch. A trace of confusion flashed in the fish monster's eyes, and then it fell to the ground weakly, completely losing its vital signs.

At the same time, Shinichiro Busujima also felt the blessing of this power.

His movements became more agile and his strength increased several times. After a clever dodge, he finally found the flaw of the rock tiger.

He suddenly appeared on the side of the rock tiger like a ghost, and swung the long sword in his hand with an unstoppable force!

"Clang!" A crisp sound of metal clashing was heard, and Shinichiro Busujima's long sword left a deep crack on the rock tiger's hard skin.

This crack seemed like a death sentence, causing the rock tiger to roar in pain. Its attack also slowed down, and it was obvious that it had been severely damaged.

Seeing this scene, a hint of joy flashed in Shinichiro Busujima's eyes.

But he did not relax because he knew that the battle was not over yet.

He continued to swing the long knife in his hand and started the final battle with the rock tiger. Finally, after a fierce collision, the rock tiger's huge body fell to the ground powerlessly. Its eyes flashed with unwillingness and despair, but it finally closed its eyes slowly.

Shinichiro Busujima stood beside Rock Tiger, putting the long sword in his hand back into the scabbard, with a tired but satisfied smile on his face. It was the joy of self-transcendence after going through the test of life and death, and also the shock and excitement after the first experience of the unknown power - spiritual power.

"Is this spiritual power? What a powerful force!"

Busujima Shinichiro muttered to himself.

Although he paid a heavy price of losing an arm in order to gain this power during the battle, at this moment, he seemed not to care about the disability at all.

In his opinion, exchanging an arm for such superhuman strength is a great gift from God.

With the "awakening" of Shinichiro Busujima, other fighters on the island also felt the strange power surging in their bodies - spiritual power.

This power was like a flame awakening from the depths of their souls, warm and fiery, giving them unprecedented strength and speed.

The emergence of this force quickly attracted the close attention of the two major powers, the island nation and America.

For those big men who stand at the pinnacle of power, what they fear most is death.

Between life and death lies humanity's most primitive fear and anxiety.

Many of them, when they were young, relied on their wisdom and courage to climb step by step to the pinnacle of power, enjoying the endless glory and satisfaction brought by money and status.

However, as the years passed by like flowing water and they felt the shadow of death approaching quietly, the fear of losing everything surged like a tide, making them furious, irritable, and even crazy.

Throughout history, there are countless examples of this. Countless emperors, generals, great men, and even great scientists may have been wise and powerful when they were young, but in their later years, they often fell into stupidity and did all kinds of unbelievable and absurd things.

This is not because they have really become stupid, but because under the erosion of time, they feel more and more clearly the ruthless passage of time and the approaching death.

For those who have once wielded supreme power and enjoyed ultimate glory, accepting the end of life is undoubtedly the most difficult fact to accept.

Therefore, they began to seek various ways to escape death and prolong life.

Some built luxurious mausoleums in the hope of continuing to enjoy the honor they had in life after death; some sent envoys across the oceans in search of the legendary elixir of life; even worse, some spared no expense and tried all kinds of incredible methods just to live one more day, and another day.

The awakening of the spiritual power of these fighters and martial artists undoubtedly opened a new door for those who yearned for power and wanted to transcend life and death.

They hope to master more secrets about spiritual power in order to enhance their own strength and even achieve immortality.

Most fighters are willing to cooperate, but there are only a few fighters and martial artists who have awakened their spiritual powers. Most of them die in the mouths and claws of monsters and demons. There are also some who ignore the official authorities and do as they please.

This is the case with Jukijima Ouma and Busujima Shinichiro, the only difference is that Busujima Shinichiro has his own confidence and background, while Jukijima Ouma simply doesn't care.
