Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1402 Draw the sword!

Another stone grazed Soma Yukihira's leg, and the burning pain instantly spread throughout his body.

His leg muscles were scratched by stones, and blood kept flowing down the wounds, soaking his trouser legs.

Soma Yukihira stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

But he gritted his teeth and used all his strength to steady himself.

He knew that at this critical moment, he must not fall down. Once he fell down, he would never have the chance to stand up again.

Soma Yukihira, who was rolling and crawling, finally approached the stone monster. The stone monster was made up of pieces of stones of various shapes, and its surface was rough and uneven.

Then he chopped it down with his sword.

However, the stone monster was not afraid at all.

After Soma Yukihira approached, its huge body suddenly began to wriggle violently, and a "crunching" sound of friction was made between the stones.

Immediately afterwards, it rolled into a ball, like a huge stone ball, and rolled towards Soma Yukihira.

Soma Yukihira's blade hit the stone monster hard, and there was a loud "clang" sound, as if metal collided with metal, which made his palm numb.

The two incompatible mysterious supernatural forces, demonic power and psychic energy, immediately began to collide violently.

The energy reactions generated by the agitation exploded in waves, like gorgeous fireworks blooming in the darkness, but they were full of danger and destruction.

The demonic power and spiritual energy canceled each other out and annihilated each other. The annihilation effect erupted and the surrounding space seemed to be distorted.

Soma Yukihira only felt a powerful force coming from the blade, which made his arm numb and his body involuntarily took a few steps back.

At this time, the stone monster was advancing with overwhelming force.

Its huge body was like a moving hill. Every step it took caused the ground to tremble violently, making a dull "dengdengdeng" sound, as if a huge heavy truck was rushing around on a rugged mountain road, raising dust and splashing gravel wherever it went.

Relying entirely on its terrifying weight and unparalleled strength, it approached Soma Yukihira step by step like an irrational beast.

At this moment, Soma Yukihira felt as if the wind blowing in his face had turned into an invisible giant hand, tightly strangling his throat, making him suffocate.

The wind was filled with the stench of decay emanating from the stone monster, like the stench of a corpse that had been rotting for thousands of years, mixed with the evil and gloomy breath of demonic power, as if it was a curse from the abyss of hell, and it went straight into his nasal cavity, making his stomach churn. The feeling of nausea surged like a tide, and his head became dizzy, and the scenes in front of him began to blur.

Soma Yukihira gritted his teeth, gripped the sharp knife tightly with both hands, and chopped at the stone monster with all his strength.

The blade collided fiercely with the stone monster's body, and in an instant, a long string of dazzling sparks was emitted.

The sparks flickered and jumped in the darkness like meteors, drawing brilliant and dangerous tracks. However, it was all in vain and could not harm the stone monster at all.

The surface of the stone monster was incredibly hard, as if it was made of the strongest and most mysterious material in the world. Yukihira Soma's blade slashed across it, leaving only shallow scratches, like a light scratch on a heavy shield, without causing any substantial damage. As the battle continued, Yukihira Soma felt his strength draining away rapidly, and his arms became sore and numb from long-term high-intensity swings, as if they no longer belonged to him.

Every time he swung his sword, it was like moving a heavy mountain. Every time he breathed, it became extremely difficult. He began to feel that he could not hold on any longer, as if he would collapse under this overwhelming pressure in the next second.

Just when he was about to despair, an idea flashed through his mind. He no longer hid his strength, and no longer suppressed the power that was stirring deep in his heart.

He slowly stretched out his trembling hands and tightly grasped the mysterious and powerful sword behind him - Red Demon Sword.

Then he resolutely drew out the demon sword Akagi-Kiri.

At the moment the blade was completely unsheathed, an indescribable violent throbbing surged out from the depths of his heart like a surging tide.

The power was like a wild beast that had been imprisoned for a thousand years, finally breaking free and beginning to rampage in his body.

At the same time, a strong, rusty, and bloody smell appeared in his mouth and tongue. This smell was strange and weird, as if it was a sign of the awakening of some mysterious power in his body.

This feeling was completely unfamiliar to him, but strangely, he did not reject it.

On the contrary, there seemed to be an inexplicable excitement surging in his heart, as if he had been waiting for this moment to come.

As for other distracting thoughts and fears, at this moment they were like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun, melting away in his heart and disappearing without a trace.

Immediately afterwards, Soma Yukihira's body began to undergo strange and astonishing changes.

Scarlet patterns quickly appeared on his skin. Those patterns were like burning flames, flashing strange and dangerous light.

His back was bulging high, and two scarlet horns slowly grew out from the top of his head, so sharp and pointed that they seemed able to pierce the sky.

His teeth also became sharp and long, like the fangs of a wild beast, emitting a cold light. His eyes turned blood red, as if burning with two balls of flame, revealing endless violence and murderous intent.

At this time, he had completely transformed into a ghost, becoming a half-human, half-ghost being. He felt the unprecedented powerful force in his body, and a strong sense of confidence surged in his heart.

He let out an angry roar towards the sky, and the sound echoed in the valley like thunder, shaking the surrounding trees.

The stone monster seemed to have noticed Soma Yukihira's change. A hint of vigilance flashed in its originally empty eyes, but it still did not stop moving forward and continued to crush towards Soma Yukihira.

Soma Yukihira tightly grasped the demon sword Akagi-Kiri, pushed the ground hard with his feet, and rushed towards the stone monster like an arrow.

His speed was extremely fast, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air.

When he approached the stone monster, he jumped high, held the knife in both hands, and used all his strength to slash at the core of the stone monster.

This knife condensed all the strength and anger in his body. The blade flashed with a strange red light, as if it was a blade of judgment from hell.
