Chapter 519: No Secrets in the Face of Corpse Sewing

Looking at the old Taoist in front of him, Xiao Ran's eyes widened and his heart was suddenly in turmoil.

Xiao Ran was deeply impressed by this Taoist priest.

When he was still a young man, he used just this soft sword to kill Senbei, who was known as the Sword Saint in Japan at that time. It can be seen that Daoye's swordsmanship was already extraordinary at that time.

In this Dharma-Ending Age, at such a young age, his swordsmanship is so extraordinary that he can be called a sword saint.

And now that Dao Ye is still alive, how terrifying must his sword attainments be? ? Xiao Ran didn't even dare to imagine it.

Thinking of this, even he couldn't help but feel countless expectations in his heart.

However, the next moment, when Xiao Ran looked closely at this Taoist priest, the expectation in his heart gradually solidified on his face.

As far as the eye could see, he saw the sleeves of this Taoist hanging down on both sides, empty and swaying in the wind.

Xiao Ran's eyes widened as he tried to search for the Taoist's arm which might be hidden, but his skinny body was so thin that it seemed as if the answer was already clear.

Xiao Ran now felt a mixture of emotions, as if a seasoning box had been overturned, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Although he had no contact with this Taoist priest, it was still hard for him to accept the final outcome of such a peerless genius.

"You have come to the mountain gate for the third time. I think you have found Plum Blossom Manor. I have already prepared some tea. I will use it instead of wine to congratulate you."

At this time, the old Taoist looked up at the place where Xiao Ran was hiding, and a smile appeared on his thin face. His smile looked particularly warm in the sun. There was a faint scent of tea in his words, as if the tea was already in front of him.

A trace of panic flashed across the faces of Senbing Liu Xuzi and Yoshioka Yuzi, as if they did not expect that there was someone following them. The two of them stood back to back, with the weapons in their hands flashing cold light in the sunlight, as if ready to explode at any time.

Seeing that his whereabouts had been revealed by the Taoist priest, Xiao Ran simply did not hide anymore. He jumped down from the bamboo forest. His figure was as graceful as a swimming dragon, light and elegant, like an immortal on earth.

He landed lightly on the tiptoes, clasped his hands together, and bowed to the old Taoist priest in front of him: "Junior Xiao Ran, I pay my respects to you, old Taoist priest. I have disturbed your meditation for the third time. Please forgive me."

The Taoist priest who was sitting on the mat looked at Xiao Ran, and nodded and praised him: "You are too polite, Taoist friend. Now you are the Taoist of Plum Blossom. In terms of seniority, I am still lower than you."

"I don't deserve it. If you don't mind, just call me Xiao Ran."

Xiao Ran hurriedly bowed again. He was so humble not only because of the identity of the Taoist priest in front of him, but also because of the heroic feat of this Taoist priest who went down the mountain to fight the Japanese without hesitation.

Based on this point alone, no matter who one is, one dare not be on an equal footing with this Taoist master.

After saying that, Xiao Ran squinted at the two Japanese devils in front of him, narrowed his eyelids for a moment, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and turned around: "Master, let me deal with these two devils. But they may hide three inches of yellow earth from you later, so don't blame me."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran took a step forward, took out the guillotine from the space and held it horizontally in his hand.

The suffocating murderous aura spread from the big knife, like a gust of wind, causing the entire bamboo forest to suddenly collapse.

The strong sense of oppression made Qianbing Liu Xuzi and Yoshioka Yuzi look horrified. Especially when they saw Xiao Ran take out the guillotine out of thin air, they blurted out: "Beginner??"

Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows slightly. Since the other party could name the initiates, then their identities would naturally be revealed.

"No wonder they are so bold that they dare to come here in broad daylight to seek death. It turns out that they are also beginners. Do they think that with the blessing of cursed objects and professions, they can come to China to seek revenge without restraint?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran snorted coldly, took a step forward, and rushed towards the two men with a knife.

"idiot!"

Seeing Xiao Ran coming to kill him, Qianbing Liu Xuzi cursed loudly, and the curse patterns on the sword in his hand flashed, and suddenly seven afterimages were reflected, and the air condensed into blood-colored ice crystals where the blade passed.

"Blood Sakura Cut!!"

Seven afterimages came with dense blood-colored ice crystals, but Xiao Ran's steps did not stop at all. He swung his sword, stirring up a dark wind in the sky. In a trance, one could hear bursts of ghostly screams.

"Clap clap clap..."

The moment the blood-colored ice crystals collided with the vortex of the gloomy wind, they exploded into dust in the air. The seven layers of knife shadows shattered, and the blood-colored ice crystals turned into smelly steam in the surging yin energy. With a wave of Xiao Ran's sword, it immediately disappeared.

At the same time, the guillotine drew a crescent-shaped shadow in the air and collided with the sword in the hands of Qianbing Liu Xuzi.

With a force of over fifty points, it smashed down like a mountain.

"Bang!" There was a loud explosion.

When Qianbing Liu Xuzi staggered back, a thumb-sized gap suddenly appeared on the hilt of his sword, which made his face turn pale instantly. His extraordinary swordsmanship was actually broken by the opponent's sword.

"It's all just a bunch of fancy talk. You haven't grasped the essence of the New Kage Style at all!"

While Xiao Ran was speaking, he suddenly leaped up in front of Qianbing Liu Xuzi and chopped down at Qianbing Liu Xuzi's head with a knife. However, before the blade fell, a strange force instantly covered Xiao Ran's body.

"God's photo!!!"

At this time, Yoshioka Yuuzu suddenly rang the bronze soul-catching bell at his waist, and a snow-white baby girl appeared behind him. The baby girl's body was bloated, her head was more like a water-filled balloon, her eyes were black, and strange curse patterns appeared on her body. The visible ripples wrapped around the baby girl's cry cast a blood-red curse on Xiao Ran, reflecting Xiao Ran's whole body in blood-red.

"go to hell!!"

Yoshioka's face was ferocious. This was his original secret technique. He used the D-level cursed item [Blood Soul Death Bell] in his hand in combination with his D-level profession [Shikigami Master] and C-level Shikigami [Rotten Bag Boy].

Privilege: Divine light.

Kamishiro: Locks onto the target, unleashes extremely high curse damage with the power of the shikigami, and changes the effect of the curse to take effect immediately.

The power of the C-rank Shikigami [Rotten Bag Boy] is difficult to bear even for professionals of the same level. The blood in the body will boil and evaporate in an instant. Even if the vitality of the professionals is extremely tenacious, the final result will be a fate worse than death.

The moment the privilege was activated, Xiao Ran's whole body was covered in blood.

But what followed was not the expected scream of pain from Xiao Ran, but instead a dull deathly aura emanated from Xiao Ran's body, which actually forcibly suppressed the curse.

"How could this happen?" Yoshioka's pupils contracted violently.

My curse has failed? ?
In horror, a strong light flashed from the front, causing Yoshioka to squint his eyes involuntarily.

"Yoshioka!!!"

Before Yoshioka could open his eyes, he suddenly heard the scream of Senbing Liu Xuzi.

Yoshioka's pupils tightened and he felt a chill coming from behind him. Xiao Ran, who was in front of him just now, was now behind him.

Xiao Ran held a knife in one hand and the [Luminous Eight Treasures Mirror·Lucky Man] in the other.

Privilege 1: Flash Escape
After activation, it will emit a dazzling light to interfere with the vision of surrounding enemies, and instantly escape to the place where the mirror shines.

"what!!"

Sensing the danger, the Shikigami, Rotten Bag Boy, let out a scream, and a cut appeared on his chest, from which long and thin tentacles flew out and stabbed Xiao Ran.

"cut!!"

The guillotine in Xiao Ran's hand suddenly let out a sharp whistling sound, and the souls of those who were killed by the knife poured out, screaming and roaring, and instantly swallowed up the Shikigami blocking the way and tore it into pieces.

"Cut! Cut! Cut!!"

Xiao Ran's guillotine raised a cold arc of light from bottom to top, and then the blade light pierced through Yoshioka's neck. Although the head was still there, the soul was cut in half and pulled out of the body.

"Boom!!"

The surface of the copper bell in Yoshioka's hand was instantly covered with spider web cracks, his eyes widened, as if he had never expected such an outcome until his death.

Seeing his companions being killed, Qianbing Liu Xuzi turned around and ran without looking back.

"Jingle Bell……"

However, as soon as she turned around, she heard the sound of chains breaking in her ears. Chains appeared out of thin air on the ground like poisonous snakes, binding Qianbing Liu Xuzi's feet and pulling her heavily to the ground.

This is exactly one of the eight techniques in the Record of Corpse Removal [Soul Binding]

The only difference from before is that when Xiao Ran used this move before, he needed the cooperation of the corpse pool to exert its maximum power.

But now, after the guidance of Taoist Plum Blossom, Xiao Ran's magic skills are no longer the same as before. Just now, when he used half of the Yin and Yang to forcibly suppress the curse on his body, he scattered the corpse qi in his body around.

The spots and fragments of corpse qi are now the medium for Xiao Ran to cast his spell.

Qianbing Liu Xuzi quickly took out a cursed object from the space, but before she could activate it, Xiao Ran had already stepped hard on Qianbing Liu Xuzi's back.

This kick directly crushed Qianbing Liu Xuzi into the mud. The huge force made Qianbing Liu Xuzi feel that his spine was about to be crushed.

But the pain was far less frightening than death, so she quickly shouted to Xiao Ran:

"Don't kill me. I can tell you a big secret. There are more than two of us coming this time. There are many, many people. In addition to us from Japan, there are also masters from the United States and the United Kingdom. They have a big plan, and only I know it!"

"That would be great!!"

Xiao Ran's voice brought joy to Qianbing Liu Xuzi's face, but the next second Xiao Ran held the big knife in both hands and stabbed it into Qianbing Liu Xuzi's back.

The pain from the cold blade piercing through his heart immediately spread throughout Qianbing Liu Xuzi's body. The immense pain caused his body to twitch uncontrollably, and blood foam kept spitting out of his mouth.

She couldn't understand why the Chinese people were not moved at all when she told them such a confidential matter. Aren't they all very patriotic?

Until she heard Xiao Ran's indifferent voice: "Once it falls into the hands of the corpse stitcher, no matter how many secrets there are, it will be meaningless..."
