Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1395 The Second Choice, Demon Sword
In the eyes of true extraordinary beings, a practitioner without skills is like a "beast" who has spiritual power but does not know how to use it.

Although they possess powerful strength, they are like headless flies, rushing around recklessly and unable to bring out the subtleties of psychic energy.

In battle, they can only rely on instinct and simple physical attacks, without any tactics or strategies. They are just for show but pose no threat at all.

Times are constantly changing, and the era when hot weapons were popular is gone forever.

Nowadays, only those who master the "art" can be considered truly extraordinary.

Those who can only use psychic energy to strengthen their fists and feet and carry out simple physical attacks are merely called "half-step extraordinary".

They have spiritual energy but are unable to convert it into real combat power, and are often vulnerable when confronting real practitioners.

Just like a small boat in a storm, facing the powerful magic cast by practitioners, it will be submerged by the surging waves in an instant.

The reason why human beings can become the masters of this world is because of their powerful ability to learn and accumulate.

Throughout the long course of history, mankind has been constantly exploring the unknown. From ancient cave murals to modern high-tech civilization, mankind has been constantly traveling in the ocean of knowledge and has accumulated countless crystallizations of wisdom.

The same is true in the supernatural field. Countless supernatural information has been recorded and circulated in the world.

Those ancient texts, mysterious runes, and strange formations all contain our ancestors' profound understanding of psychic energy and supernatural powers.

However, as time went on, the spiritual energy gradually depleted, and the extraordinary environment of this world also underwent tremendous changes.

Those places that were once full of spiritual energy and active in supernatural powers have now become spiritually thin and supernatural powers have become elusive.

Those extraordinary families and sects that were once glorious either gradually declined in the long river of history.

Some of them lost their talents due to family disputes, while others were forced to abandon their once glorious foundations and wander around due to external persecution and suppression.

Or they hide from the world for various reasons, they hide in the deep mountains and forests, mysterious secret realms, trying to avoid the disturbances of the outside world and preserve the last bloodline and inheritance of their family and sect.

Today, only fragments of records remain of the once extraordinary information.

Most of the books that once recorded in detail various powerful spells and extraordinary secrets have been reduced to ashes under the erosion of time and the baptism of war.

Those core knowledge have become secret stories passed down by word of mouth within the big family.

These secrets contain the hard work and wisdom of countless predecessors and are the key to unlocking the deeper mysteries of the extraordinary world.

However, as spiritual energy depleted, the magical power contained in these secrets gradually disappeared.

Those secrets that once offered great power to those who understood their true meaning are now becoming increasingly difficult to understand and use.

It is like an ancient encrypted book. Without the correct code and deciphering method, people can only stare at the obscure texts.

In the end, it will most likely become "the delusion of our predecessors" and disappear, becoming a distant legend in the eyes of future generations.

"What's the second option?"

Alice Nakiri came back to her senses from her longing for healing arts and immediately asked impatiently. Her eyes were full of anticipation and curiosity. The first option - healing arts was already so precious and gave her an unprecedented surprise, so the second option might not be simple either.

"The second option is that some of you have special physiques. I have a magic sword in my hand, and its power is beyond imagination. But the corresponding price is that the user is likely to be completely controlled by the magic sword and become its puppet."

Luther said.

"Demon Blade!"

Alice Nakiri couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, her eyes widened and her face was full of horror and disbelief.

In the cultural cognition of the island nation, the demon sword has always been a mysterious and terrifying existence, with countless bloody and strange legends, and is regarded as an ominous thing.

The Japanese have long known about the demon sword, and those horror stories about the demon sword have been passed down orally from generation to generation.

Among them, the famous demon sword Muramasa series is a typical representative.

Muramasa does not refer to the name of a specific sword, but a school of sword making.

This school has focused on manufacturing weapons for three generations in a row, and would mark the weapons they produced with the inscription "Muramasa", which is like an ancient brand logo.

Throughout the long course of history, the reason why the Muramasa sword became famous is largely because it had a deep hatred with the Tokugawa family.

Some important figures of the Tokugawa family met with misfortune when using the Muramasa sword, which led to the Muramasa sword being labeled as "unlucky".

However, if we really want to talk about killing people, the Muramasa sword may just be more famous. After all, in that turbulent era, swords were tools for killing, and it was normal for them to be stained with blood.

But the horror of the demon sword goes far beyond this. In the folklore of the island country, there are many stories about wanderers who went crazy after picking up the demon sword.

These ronin may have originally still had a trace of rationality and humanity, but the moment they grasped the demon sword, they seemed to be possessed by an evil force and instantly became crazy and bloodthirsty.

They wielded the demon swords and killed people everywhere. Wherever they went, corpses were everywhere and blood flowed like a river. Moreover, even if they kept killing people, they could not satisfy the endless desire of the demon sword.

The demon sword is like a demon that is never full, constantly devouring lives until it drags the user into an endless abyss.

In comics and movies, the plot of the demon sword is enduring. The creators use their rich imagination to show the horror and evil of the demon sword vividly.

Those who are controlled by the demon sword have no control over their bodies and can only obey the demon sword, becoming killing machines.

At this moment, when Alice Nakiri and Erina Nakiri heard Luther mention the demon sword, their faces instantly turned very ugly. They never thought that in this seemingly ordinary choice, there would be an option like the demon sword.

Moreover, one is a healing technique that can heal wounds, while the other is a demon sword that is full of danger and terror. The difference between the two choices is so huge that it is difficult to accept for a while.

"who is it?"

Soma Yukihira was the first to break the silence, with a hint of confusion and nervousness in his voice.

His eyes swept over everyone, secretly wondering who possessed this so-called special physique.
