The infinite sword system has been mastered, and you say this is the dragon clan?

Chapter 204 What a weak god
"what's the situation?"

In the Tokyo underground tunnel "Iron Dome Temple", the dim light was projected on the damp walls, casting mottled shadows. Emiya saw the king who was clapping the clappers, and suddenly he seemed to have a seizure, his body trembled violently, and then he suddenly stiffened and fell straight down.

His movements were stiff and abrupt, as if his vitality had been suddenly drained away by an invisible force. At last, the king's fingers twitched slightly a few times, and then there was no movement at all.

What on earth is this meaningless behavior for? It can't be a scam, right? Is it a joke?

Emiya was full of doubts, but he quickly shifted his attention away from the king. He was more concerned about Eri's safety than this inexplicable guy, "Eri, are you okay?"

At this moment, in the wide tunnel, the water flow has gradually calmed down and is no longer as swift and turbulent as before.

The water was gurgling, occasionally rolling up white waves, making a gentle splashing sound. The violent waves gradually faded away, and the dim lights on the top of the tunnel cast swaying shadows on the water, as if countless tiny stars were twinkling in the water.

Therefore, Emiya was not worried that Eri would be washed away if she just soaked in the water.

However, Eri's behavior just now made him feel uneasy. She seemed to have an unusual reaction to the clapper. Although Eri had always been curious about many things in the outside world, her attention had never been so completely taken away, as if she was being pulled by some invisible force.

Huhu——!
Suddenly, the sound of wind in the tunnel suddenly rose, and the airflow seemed to be controlled by some force, circling to form a vortex. The wind whistled, rolling up ripples on the water surface, and even caused the water to start changing direction and turning back. Emiya suddenly raised his head, and his eyes quickly locked on the center of the cyclone - Eri.

His pupils shrank slightly, and alarm bells rang in his heart. Is this... a phenomenon caused by the release of excess magic power? A thought flashed through Emiya's mind, and then his face became more solemn. Why does it look like - a summoning of a heroic spirit?
boom!
The cyclone suddenly expanded, and the rapidly flowing water surface exploded instantly, with water splashing everywhere, as if countless silver arrows were shot in all directions. The radiating magic power repelled everything, even the majestic water force was blocked, forming a short-lived void. The water splashed in the air for a moment, and then slowly fell, as if time was stretched at this moment.

At the same time, a black figure appeared beside Eri.

Her figure was exactly the same as Eri's, as if she had been detached from Eri's shadow. However, she was shrouded in a thick black aura, like mist rising from the abyss, making her appearance slightly blurred, as if she was not clearly seen through a veil.

Only those pair of golden eyes were dazzling, blooming in the misty black fog with a majesty that made people dare not look directly at it.

Eri's pupils trembled suddenly, and her eyes were fixed on the black figure. There was no surprise on her face, and it was obvious that this existence was not unfamiliar to Eri, but she had a little worry in her heart. The black shadow had always been an illusory existence, which she had only seen, but this time it had strongly interfered with reality.

"Thanks to that unknown idiot, I finally got out... The contract has been concluded." The black figure spoke slowly, his voice low and cold, echoing in the tunnel, his words chilling, "O 'Witch', witness the birth of the myth."

Emiya didn't fully understand what the shadow said to Eri, but now was obviously not the time to delve into it. He raised the sword in his hand slightly, and the blade flashed coldly in the dim light. At the same time, his other hand projected a bow and arrow.

Emiya shouted, "Who are you?" He leaned forward slightly, his feet firmly on the steps of the iron ladder beside the water, as if ready to attack at any time.

"It's you... I know you, the god-killing hero known to everyone in the world."

The shadow said, her voice sarcastic, like a mockery.

It seemed that she was too disdainful to announce her name. She slowly raised her palm, and black air swirled around her fingertips like clouds, slowly reaching towards Eri who was in the middle of the water.

"Oh - you are also the hero that this little girl admires, but now she is my miko..."

Whoosh-!
In a flash, before the black shadow had even stretched out his hand, Emiya had already drawn his bow and arrow, and an arrow flew through the air, flying straight towards the black shadow's head. The arrow cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, and at the same time, Emiya shouted:
"Eri, come here!"

Bang! The black shadow quickly caught the arrow, and Emiya grabbed Eri's wrist and pulled her towards him. They both dived into the water, splashing water everywhere, and the surface of the water instantly returned to calm.

"Humanity's martial arts are nothing more than trifles. And the idea of escaping by diving into the water is simply wishful thinking!"

The black shadow just raised a scornful smile at his lips, and the next second, the arrow suddenly exploded, and the fantasy collapsed!
A strong flash of light was accompanied by a huge explosion. The water surface instantly boiled due to the high heat, splashing water and steam rising. The shock wave brought by the explosion blew the black figure away fiercely. Her body hit the metal wall of the platform heavily, making a loud bang. The metal wall was slightly dented by the impact.

Taking advantage of this gap, Emiya had already swam to the other side of the tunnel with Eri. Without any hesitation, he led Eri up the iron ladder and onto the opposite platform. Then he immediately turned his body and looked in the direction of the shadow with vigilance.

I saw a black shadow slowly climbing up the wall, and the black gas expanded around her, so thick that it almost became a substance. Her figure became taller and taller in the darkness, and the black gas spread like billowing wolf smoke, circling between heaven and earth, blocking the only light above her head. The entire underground tunnel seemed to be shrouded by her black gas, turning into a dark ghost cave.

"You idiot, how dare you! I am a god! I am a mortal, and I respectfully call you a hero, but you dare to challenge the throne of God?" Her golden eyes became more and more dazzling in the darkness, like two dazzling suns, emitting a heart-pounding light.

god?
Emiya's eyes flickered between the black shadow and Eri, who was standing beside him with a look of doubt and confusion on her face. Could the god that came out of Eri's body be the fragment of Izanami?

"Those who insult the gods will die—"

The shadow's voice was like thunder, shaking the air. A strong mental pressure burst out from her golden eyes, as if it had turned into a sword, a spear, and an axe, piercing directly into Emiya's mind. Emiya felt his head swell, and the scene in front of him seemed to be distorted. His body shook uncontrollably and he almost lost his balance. Fortunately, Eri, who was next to him, pulled Emiya up and saved him from falling into the water. Emiya hurriedly lowered his head to concentrate and keep himself awake.

"Strange... You didn't die instantly like that idiot just now," the shadow's tone revealed surprise. "You are not an ordinary blood descendant. Did you devour a higher-level dragon?"

Emiya was stunned when he heard this, then he suddenly realized.

"Swallow? Did she mean that after she slayed the dragon in Shenzhou, Melyuchina helped her perform the dragon blood bathing ritual?"

However, "looking directly at Kamui" was still too dangerous. Emiya stared at the shadow's feet, avoiding direct gaze with her golden eyes. He raised the sword in his hand slightly, the tip of the sword pointed at the shadow's eyes, and put on a "Ten Ten Rishin Ryu" "Ping Qing Yan" posture, his body sinking slightly.

“Since you are so stubborn and resist to the end, death will be your only ending…” The black shadow began to expand her invisible domain. The huge and invisible spiritual elements flew and combined under her delicate operation. The alchemical skill called "spiritual recasting" was used by her to perfection.

A large amount of divine energy emerged from the darkness, spreading out of the area with the black shadow as the center, showing a surging and mighty momentum... and then completely disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"—?"

The black shadow was stunned for a moment, what was going on? The deification experiment conducted on Yamata-no-Orochi in the Night Food Plain was almost successful, but her deification failed from the beginning?
Is it because it is impossible to become a god in the real world? If you try to shape it purely in the spiritual realm, will it be corrected?

However, Emiya had no idea what Black Shadow was thinking. He was under great psychological pressure. What he was facing now might very well be the legendary Supreme Mother Goddess Izanami. Even if it was just a small and incomplete fragment, it was still not something that mortals could compare to.

"We must do it as quickly as possible and decide the outcome with one move!"

His heartbeat was like a war drum, and magic power flowed to his limbs and bones as his powerful heart pumped blood.

And what he held tightly in his hand was not Miyamoto Musashi's sword - Musashi's Noble Phantasm, Myo-O Dharma Image, was too tall. Although it had enough power to support the sky and the earth, it had no room for use in the sewers, and it might even cause landslides in this area - but it was the projected famous sword "California Kiyomizu".

That is, the sword carried by Okita Souji, a talented swordsman of the Shinsengumi who was active in the late Edo period.

Emiya stared at the opponent's feet. Although he didn't know why the opponent suddenly stopped moving, he had to seize the fleeting opportunity. Suddenly, he flew up from the high platform, the floor tiles under his feet cracked in an instant, and his figure had already disappeared!
"One step beyond the sound, two steps without a break, three steps with the sword!"

His figure was so fast that it seemed to have crossed the boundaries of space. In just a flash, he rushed to the front of the black shadow.

There was an indescribable look of astonishment in the shadow's eyes. She was lurking on Eri, but she had never seen Emiya perform such techniques and sword moves.

This move is Okita Souji's "Shrinking the Earth". It is not a magical method to reach the divine realm, but a technique that combines many phenomena such as footwork, body movements, breathing, blind spots, etc.!
“…Wu Ming – Three Stages of Thrust –!”

As Emiya shouted, the tip of the California Clearlight Blade in his hand stabbed straight out. His movements were smooth and there was no hesitation, as if he had become one with the sword.

The moment the tip of the knife thrust out, the black energy around the shadow was suddenly swept away, and the realm of surging spirit was as fragile as thin paper in front of the blade. The trajectory of the blade's edge far exceeded the sound, and three overlapping cold lights bloomed silently in the darkness!
The shadow tried to reconstruct the field for defense, but was ruthlessly torn apart by the blade in the instant it was completed.

The secret of the three-stage thrust is that the first thrust, the second thrust, and the third thrust "exist at the same time" in the "same position". Even if you block the first thrust, you will still be pierced by the second and third thrusts in the same position!

This contradiction causes the tip of the sword to produce "event saturation", making the three-stage thrust an undefendable sword technique!

There is no doubt that the tip of the knife flashing with cold light was irresistible. It silently pierced into the chest of the black shadow three times at the same time, hitting the heart directly.

Then, Emiya dodged and landed behind the black shadow, swinging the blade and lightly spurting blood. The blood beads that were thrown off drew an arc in the air and then dissipated into the darkness. At the same time, the black shadow let out an inhuman scream, and a large amount of black blood sprayed out violently from its body.

Emiya turned his head and looked back. He needed to be alert that the other party might have some means of regeneration or immortality. After all, according to Japanese mythology, Izanami, the goddess of creation, entered the underworld after her death and became the god of the underworld of Yomizu-no-Kami.

"Cough...cough..."

However, the black shadow had no regenerative ability or immortality. After suffering trauma, she coughed up more black blood, and her body even showed an unstable tendency to disintegrate.

"What a weak god." Emiya thought to himself that this was too weak. Even if it was a fragment of a god, it shouldn't have such a weak existence, not to mention that the other party should be one of the supreme gods in mythology.

This is not right. What happened?
