Demon Capital Slayer

Chapter 120 Sword-shaped Light Gun
"Hiss! Hand over that girl!"

Without a word of nonsense, the bandits made no attempt to display any so-called gentlemanly manners, probably because they felt it was unnecessary.

After all, they consider themselves the stronger party, and in these guys' minds, strength is the greatest morality.

Greed and tyranny transformed into a cold light that pierced towards the throat of the sword.

but--

The sound of bones breaking was like stepping on a bamboo pole.

Without even drawing his sword, Miken used the unsheathed blade to snap the vampire's neck as if swinging a baseball bat.

The action exudes the purest numerical beauty amidst extreme brutality.

As the power of the dragon was activated, a faint roar soared into the sky. The young swordsman's body surged with spiritual energy, and layers of dragon scales interlocked tightly. The originally invisible outline appeared and disappeared amidst the flowing light, like an invisible transparent suit of armor, or perhaps some power beyond comprehension was revealing its true nature.

Hawkeye activates, and translucent feathers cover his right eyebrow, as if he were wearing half a carnival mask.

Although the lower-ranking vampires moved with lightning speed, to Yujian it was like a 180-year-old woman running a marathon—heading straight for the finish line, a life without end.

To be fair, although these lower-ranking vampires fear sunlight, their overall qualities surpass those of human martial artists. Their physiques are strong enough to withstand the impact of free fall, and their speed is so fast that it is difficult for the naked eye to detect.

The weapons they wielded were also battle-tested, mostly swift swords or cavalry sabers.

The former is lightweight and sharp, easily piercing flesh and blood, and has a highly systematic swordsmanship system.

The latter's curved blade can cause large-area lacerations when charging and slashing, and the curved blade has less drag resistance after contacting the target, and can continuously cut along the curve to form a sawing effect.

Combining the two weapons with the vampire's speed advantage can achieve twice the result with half the effort, enough to deal with most opponents.

Moreover, they have a numerical advantage.

Six vampires jumped out of the assault boat. This was a reinforced crew configuration that gradually took shape during the Age of Exploration. The number of crew members was limited by the carrying capacity of the boat and was usually five to six.

In addition, low growls that didn't sound like humans could be heard coming from inside the small boat, which clearly indicated that there was a large number of living corpses inside.

These low-level vampire derivatives can serve as a buffer when vampires land, or as filler minions in battle.

But the vampires clearly did not expect that they would suffer casualties as soon as they started fighting.

A broken neck is certain death for a human, but a vampire survives thanks to the tenacious vitality unique to monsters. Although it cannot control its body temporarily, it is not necessarily killed immediately.

how...

A sound like a watermelon bursting rang out from the spot.

"Don't look." With one hand on Mingmei's back, Yujian forced her to close her eyes while stomping on the vampire's head and crushing it.

Seeing this, the other vampires immediately fell silent. Although their facial expressions could not be seen, their tense limbs and stiff movements made it easy to sense the uncontrollable tension and...fear in their hearts.

Having been far from the continent of Europe, they had not experienced this emotion for a long time.

With Akemi on his back in one hand, a posture unsuitable for combat, he began to consider whether to shake off the group of enemies and charge forward.

With the invisible dragon scales protecting him, ordinary weapons have difficulty harming him.

Milo made no sound at his feet, but simply lowered his body, assuming a posture ready to pounce at any moment.

It is well known that dogs that are truly good at biting are actually less likely to bark.

The situation became increasingly tense. Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from afar. The vampire immediately moved to a different position, leaving behind several darts stuck in the ground.

"Enemy attack!" shouted one of the vampires, who seemed to be the leader of the armed group, as he instinctively looked in the direction from which the darts had come.

Immediately afterwards, he regretted it.

He will pay an extremely high price for that brief moment of looking away.

With his left hand supporting Akemi, Yujian used his right thumb to push the soldier outward a bit.

In an instant, a flash of light appeared!

After Ah Lu exposed his obsession, he had an epiphany. Although he did not directly break through to a higher realm, he felt exceptionally free when he held the sword again.

It was an unparalleled sense of lightness, like unloading layers of heavy burdens, after shedding the shackles of outdated ideas.

A sword can be a sword, and a person can be a sword. Using muscles to wield a sword is swordsmanship, and using thoughts to wield a sword is also swordsmanship.

This shows that human thought can also create an invincible weapon!

Thus, the sword and the swordsman were both freed.

Yin Yi activated, Beichen Dream Style - Dream Sword!
Swordsmanship has been able to display a freer and newer form!
Since it is a sword of light shaped by will, it should be as unpredictable as thought!
Thus, this was no longer an ordinary dream sword, but a naturally formed blade that could be manipulated at will, much like the sharp teeth and claws of a living being.

Hmm, if we just change this move to 'Dream Born,' will the Red and White Witch with Exposed Armpits come knocking on our door demanding 100,000 in copyright fees?
What's that called? A natural tooth? Isn't that still a copyright dispute?

Never mind, just kill them first!

With a simple flick of his wrist, Yu Jian unleashed a bright beam of light from the scabbard, even though the blade wasn't fully drawn, as if the metal of the sword was reflecting the sun's rays.

Its color is not a bright red driven by anger, but a pure golden light.

Even Yujian himself was surprised by this change, but the vampire who was targeted by the light was even more surprised.

Although it appeared to be just a harmless reflection, the vampires that were touched by it instantly felt as if they had fallen into a fiery inferno.

"Ah! E ...

Why! Why is a divine light and teeth appearing in the East too?!

In the blink of an eye, the vampire screamed and turned into a cloud of ashes that exploded in all directions.

All that remained was a piece of clothing covered in burn marks and a charred military knife twisted and deformed from being baked at high temperatures.

what happened?
Yu Jian then saw a faint golden fingerprint on the scabbard.

Although Sister Alu couldn't personally enter this ordinary world, she still provided assistance to the best of her ability.

When it comes to fighting evil, everyone reached a tacit consensus. Originally, Yu Jian had also wondered whether people in the mortal world could be considered living beings. But seeing that his seniors were doing this, he stopped bothering to think about such a trivial question.

When you're about to spray oil, listen to your inner voice!

I could vaguely hear those words in my ear.

If you want to save them, then go and save them.

If you want to kill, then go ahead and kill.

Good and evil, right and wrong, reside in one's own heart.

This is true to myself!
With the help of his predecessors, he raised his sword high, like a blazing torch, breaking free from self-imposed constraints.

Bring it on! This is the Beichen Dream Sword with a radius of 2.2 meters!
The golden dream sword burst forth from its tip, as if it were not a sword, but a classic 19th-century melee laser gun.

Milo, who had just bitten a vampire, was stunned. The vampire bitten by the dog was equally stunned, and then he was struck on the head with a sword and turned to ashes.

Due to the limitations of Yujian's own realm, the destructive power of pure Yin Yi had its limits. However, the sword had a temporary enchantment given by Sister Alu, which caused all the vampires present to suffer a terrible fate.

The retractable light spears thrust repeatedly, and the situation quickly turned one-sided.

"Coconut shortbread!" A vampire exclaimed in surprise, a line he hadn't uttered since abandoning his faith, but Yggdrasil clearly had no intention of protecting these monsters.

The golden dream sword pierced the vampire's chest in an instant, and the purifying power spread throughout his body along his heart and blood vessels, turning him into another handful of ashes in a flash.

The last surviving vampire screamed and commanded the undead to climb up, while he himself turned and ran away with practiced ease.

But with just one sword strike, the golden Dream Sword, which swept across and slashed, wiped out all the living corpses.

Watching the retreating figures of the lower-ranking vampires, Yujian raised an eyebrow and pulled out a carved revolver loaded with karmic bullets from his pocket.

The sword is free, and the swordsman is free.

As long as you have a sword in your heart, it doesn't matter if you use a gun.

As he raised the gun and aimed, spiritual energy instantly surged into his grip, and the thorny, blood-red roses in the gun's relief transformed into intoxicating datura flowers.

At the same time, the innate talent of Mingqing Shi's 'shell' also began to take effect. Judging from this posture, it might not be a throw, but rather a more broadly defined aiming.

Bah!
The gunpowder exploded, and a bright burst of light erupted from the muzzle of the gun, instantly piercing through the fleeing lower-ranking vampire with a thin golden thread.

In the air, the faint sounds of bronze bowls and chanting of Buddhist hymns could be heard. The vampire's expression froze, a mandala flower bloomed from his wound, and he first clasped his hands together, then knelt down with a smile before turning into ashes and exploding in all directions.

Namo Samadhi, perhaps this is the Buddha's final act of compassion.

This gun is definitely a bit sinister...

After glancing at the revolver in his hand, Yu Jian rotated the magazine to the empty chamber before putting it back into his pocket.

At this moment, the light emitted by the fingerprints on the scabbard had slowly faded. Considering that it would gradually fade over time, it wouldn't be a waste to use this power now rather than letting it dissipate naturally.

Perhaps, Sister Lu was using this method to remind him not to simply focus on swords and anger, but that other emotions beyond instinct also contain different kinds of power.

It requires feeling, understanding, and experiencing until one embarks on the path of transcendence.

Hmm? Does Sister Lu want me to become a monk...?

Yu Jian's expression turned strange.

Just as he was pondering this, Hattori Hanzo hurriedly drove over.

The ninja master had only managed to throw the shuriken from a distance, and now he looked at Miken with a complicated expression.

Such swordsmanship is simply unbelievable and beyond imagination.

Now is not the time to marvel.

"boarding!"

The situation was critical, and Hattori Hanzo didn't waste any words. He immediately waved for the two to get into the car.

Milo jumped up and barked loudly, barely managing to leap onto the frame.

The carriage, pulled by fine horses, sped towards Edo Castle, with the continuous rumble of cannons echoing behind it.

In a daze, Yu Jian had a strange illusion of traveling through the battlefield of World War I.

With Edo Castle now within reach, he could no longer contain his curiosity.

"What are you going to do?"

"For such a terrifying foreign enemy that could threaten the entire country, the first Tokugawa Shogun, now the deified Lord Dainen, had already prepared a complete contingency plan," Hattori Hanzo said in a deep voice.

Mitsurugi's lips twitched. This unsurprisingly Japanese final battle weapon plan made him really want to complain.

"However, that plan requires the power of the Crane Lady, so we have no choice but to rely on Princess Chizuru." Hattori Hanzo's expression was gloomy, and he looked very unwilling.

"It's alright, Uncle Hattori. This is a responsibility I've had to shoulder since birth." Akemi smiled easily; she had already made up her mind.

"but!"

"It's fine."

"Damn it!" Hattori Hanzo, who inherited the title of the God of Shinobi, was unable to control his emotions at this moment and slammed his fist heavily on the car.

Yu Jian watched silently, and Milo didn't say anything to disturb him.

They all felt the rhythm of fate's shift.

And so the brief silence passed.

We've arrived at Edo Castle.
