The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"What? You say it's impossible?" Yu Jin was shocked. Did this Lei Movie not understand the situation? He was the one with the bigger fist now, okay?

Seeing Yu Jin's excited expression, Ying's Dream Heart in her hand shone brightly once more. She took a few steps back, as if in defense, and said:

"The Eye Hunt Order itself will not cause anyone to die."

"Don't just focus on the Eye Hunting Order; you can also offer some explanation for the Lockdown Order," Yu Jin said to Ying, adding seriously.

"The same applies to the national lockdown order. The people of Inazuma can be completely self-sufficient. As for external threats, we can handle them."

The invincible aura emanating from Ying has returned somewhat.

"The idea is good, but your group of nobles have taken the opportunity to do a lot of dirty work. These two decrees have become a pretext for them to amass wealth and oppress others."

"Not only that, they also colluded with the Fools and openly disregarded the lockdown order."

Yu Jin crossed his arms, wanting to see how Ying would try to explain herself next.

However, Shadow's only response to Ember was a single sentence.

"I understand everything about eternity."

"The Fools pose no threat to eternity; otherwise, they would have been wiped out long ago, without a doubt..."

"What? You're saying you know everything?"

Ember immediately reached out to interrupt Shadow, picking at his ears as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Everything concerning [Eternity] is like this." Shadow nodded.

"What about what's happening outside?"

"I know too."

"Fine, fine, fine!" Yu Jin laughed in exasperation, clapping his hands several times. Under Ying's astonished gaze, he continued pacing back and forth, saying:

"I've heard Inazuma extol you as invincible and the best in the world, and I'm starting to believe it a little."

"I never expected this. If the corpses on Hachiyū Island and the skeletons of Inazuma Sea heard you say this, I wonder what they would think?"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The sound of amber shattering rang out one after another. After sensing the change in the aura on the ember, the Forge Knight raised the Rune Arc and decisively crushed it.

The blessings flowed continuously, and the aura emanating from the Forge Knight steadily increased.

"We don't need you." Seeing the Forge Knights about to rush forward, Ember immediately reached out and stopped them.

"Get out! I've realized now that there's not a single normal person in Inazuma, from top to bottom."

"That pink-haired fox has a criminal record; she probably knows some kind of balancing tricks or something."

"Don't give her a chance. Whoever commits a crime, turn them into fertilizer! If the shogunate is involved, throw the entire shogunate into the sea to feed the fish!"

Ember made no attempt to conceal himself from Shadow and General Thunder, and ostentatiously entrusted the Forge Knight with important instructions.

"Go!" After saying that, Yu Jin pulled at the void with both hands, tearing out a huge spatial rift.

"Yes!" The Forge Knight nodded and was about to rush into the spatial rift without the slightest hesitation.

"By the way! Ayato Kamisato is alright, you can listen to his opinions, but as for the others, just ignore them!"

As if remembering something, Ember gave a few more instructions to the Forge Knights. The only one in the Shogunate who still resembled a human being was Ayato Kamisato.

Because of his untainted character, Yu Jin was willing to give him more trust.

As the Forge Knights entered, the originally enormous spatial rift gradually shrank and completely healed within this space.

"Pursuing desires can lead to losing even more..."

"Let me correct you. The desire to live should be called instinct, not wish." Yu Jin bent his arm and slashed with the rusty straight sword inside his elbow.

"Om-"

Large sparks flew out along with unknown stains on the sword. When the entire straight sword was drawn, its blade had returned to the original silver-white color of steel.

Seeing that Ember had no intention of communicating, Shadow and General Thunder immediately became extremely alert.

The current Ember is much stronger than before, both in terms of condition and momentum.

"Boom!"

Lightning erupted, and the Thunder General, who had just returned to its original form, once again entered the state of Calamity-Tsumitsu Takenari no Mikoto.

The shadow beside her was not to be outdone, and the Dream Heart in her hand once again leaped with lightning.

"Why are you two so tense?" Seeing the two of them looking so ready, Yu Jin suddenly put away the straight sword he had been polishing.

"Go!" General Thunder preemptively struck without asking any questions. Ignoring Ember's strange movements, she directly raised her arms and pressed them down.

The two hands beneath his feet reversed, and the giant puppet hands followed the body of the Thunder General above, slamming heavily onto the ground.

"Thump!" The earth trembled slightly from the slap of the hand. Where the puppet's hand struck, a deep purple hue spread from the ground, heading straight for the distant embers.

Watching the deep purple rushing towards him, Ember remained motionless, as if he hadn't seen it at all.

In the blink of an eye, the purple aura reached Ember's feet. As the purple aura contracted, electric charges began to rise around Ember.

"boom!"

The mirror-like ground cracked open, and a puppet-like arm, formed from pure lightning elemental power, emerged from the crack, seemingly trying to firmly grasp the embers in its palm.

"Get down here!"

"Boom!!!"

An even louder sound came, and Yu Jin looked at the hand that was rising from the ground and stomped on it.

The earth trembled even more violently. Ember's foot landed on the outstretched giant hand, and the stalemate lasted only a moment before it was broken.

"Crack—Bang!"

Cracks first appeared on the palm, which was made of pure elemental force. As the embers exerted further force, the puppet's palm could no longer support itself and turned into flying fragments.

"Judging from your expression, it's a pipe dream for you to revoke the Eye Hunting Order and the Isolation Order yourself."

"Then let me see if your long-cherished eternity can remain steadfast under my onslaught!"

After grinding his feet on the ground, Ember waved to General Thunder and Shadow.

Chapter 529 Mastery of All Martial Arts

2024-03-06

"boom!"

Ying ignored Yu Jin's provocative actions and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Passing through the swirling fragments of lightning, Shadow arrived before Ember.

This time, however, Ember did not turn a deaf ear as before. In Shadow's line of sight, she could clearly see Ember's gaze glancing downwards.

It's obvious that Ember can keep up with Shadow's movements.

While his speed was still high, Ying turned around and unleashed a swift yet powerful horizontal slash.

Ember was very familiar with this move; it was the first half of his own Cross Slash. Relying on his iron-clad hands, he delivered a top-down uppercut to the blade that was slashing horizontally from below.

Actually, that cross slash is easy to counter; you can either strike first or disrupt the attacker's posture.

"Clang!" The blade had only spun halfway when Shadow felt a tremendous force coming from below Dream Heart.

Her stance was thus distorted. Seeing her blade pointing upwards, Ying decisively leveled it and sheathed it.

This allowed her to regain her footing, but she was unable to unleash the next one-word slash.

However, Ying had no intention of using the One-Word Slash. In terms of martial arts, she believed she was second to none.

I would never stoop to copying others' ideas.

Because of the uppercut, Yu Jin leaned back, leaving his chest wide open.

If you want to make a slashing motion with a flat, retracted blade, you need to adjust your posture, but if you want to thrust it out smoothly, you don't need to go through all that trouble.

And that's what Shadow was planning to do. She held the knife in both hands, intending to plunge the lightning-cracked blade into Ember's chest.

"As expected, I also thought you wouldn't be that stupid." Yu Jin wasn't surprised at all when he saw Ying's change of tactics.

If Shadow were to forcefully use the Cross Slash under these circumstances, then Ember would seriously question whether her martial arts skills were just hype.

Ember's words did not cause the blade to pause in the slightest. Shadow now had only one goal—to send the blade into the body of the person in front of him.

Just as the blade was about to touch the embers, the embers finally made a move.

He simply shifted his body to the side, dodging the shadow's thrust. The shadow showed no surprise; she twisted her vertical blade, intending to slash horizontally.

But Ember was faster than her next move. After dodging the stab, Ember did not choose to create distance or pursue.

He raised his thigh, and his foot naturally stepped on the blade that was suspended in mid-air.

"Bang!" Yu Jin exerted his strength and stomped down hard. The tip of the blade of Dream One Heart was also stomped into the ground.

Then, using the blade as a springboard, Ember leaped high into the air and, taking advantage of Shadow's stagger due to the immense force, successfully jumped behind her.

"sieve!"

A strong wind blew, and Yu Jin looked up to see lightning hurtling straight at his face. He grabbed the huge ponytail on Ying's head with his hands behind his back, and a shield appeared in front of Yu Jin.

"Boom!"

The vajra, which shot out, touched the shadow and instantly exploded into lightning. Amidst the surging lightning, Ember felt his grip loosen.

He quickly jumped back and left, only to find himself holding a handful of purple hair.

It was obvious that this was left behind by Shadow. The purple hair only existed in Ember's hand for a short while before turning into specks of light and disappearing.

Turning her head, she saw that the long ponytail behind Ying's head still hung down to her waist, unchanged.

Seeing this, Yu Jin wasn't surprised at all. How much of the demon god's body was real flesh and blood, and how much was extremely solidified energy—even they probably couldn't say for sure.

With a wave of his hand, he dispelled the lightning in front of him, and then nodded to the shadow and the lightning general in the distance.

"You two work together quite well."

"But I can also engage in group fights."

Yu Jin's aura suddenly subsided, making him look like an ordinary person with strange behavior.
