I'm a demon in Tokyo!

Chapter 304 After this strike, your shikigami will be eliminated... Eight-foot-tall King of Justice, ten-second invincibility, descends!
Yuan Jingshui frowned, suddenly feeling restricted.

Was I pre-read?
—It was Uesugi Tetsu who silently achieved the breakthrough of sword heart clarity, and in terms of mental state, he surpassed him.
In her eyes, Uesugi Tetsu's skin turned completely crimson, and a large amount of high-temperature steam rose from beneath Akahana's mask.

It was like a giant machine running under overload, making a rumbling noise.

The sense of threat she perceived also increased dramatically.

If Uesugi Tetsu's sense of threat before was "someone making threats at the door," then now it's "a cold blade pressed against his neck."

The two are completely incomparable.

But Yuan Jingshui had experienced this scene countless times.

There's a high probability of dying, which is normal.

But recently, it has indeed been rare.

But there's something rather strange.

Being read in advance signifies a significant gap in mindset.

After observing for a few seconds, Yuan Jingshui discovered that Uesugi Tetsuya had not condensed his sword spirit, and naturally did not understand how he had made her feel like she was being read.

However, his opponent is Uesugi Tetsu.

It was Uesugi Tetsuya, who was praised by his elder sister and served as Nanjo Aimi's direct subordinate.

It's perfectly normal to know some unknown methods.

All she needs to do is her job.

Regardless of the enemy's strength, as long as you consistently do the "right" thing in battle, the scales of victory will gradually tip.

With her pale fingertips touching the azure blade, Minamoto Shizumi once again pressed her will over Hotarumaru, controlling everything like a tyrannical ruler.

Take a deep breath in the still water and feel the surging "waves" all around you.

The seven great apertures containing supernatural powers absorb and release the required "mass," and then connect the Guiyuan Qi Sea within Yuan Jingshui's body to the boundless "spatial mass sea."

—The Guiyuan Breathing Method believes that space also has its "mass".

—The practice of the Guiyuan Breathing Technique is actually the practitioner's control over the "sea of ​​matter" of space.

The so-called "space ocean" is an endless ocean that connects to the entire world.

The Guiyuan Qi Sea within Yuan Jingshui's body is equivalent to a very small "spatial sea," which is practically no different from a pond compared to the outside world.

Even so, her Guiyuan Qi Sea is ultimately not the same as an ordinary Qi Sea.

Yuan Jingshui is able to "teleport" because she can sense the fluctuations of the ocean waves in the spatial mass at all times and then move accordingly.

To achieve this, one needs to open the first six of the "Nine Apertures of Guiyuan".

The first three apertures, namely [Meditative Awareness], [Visual Insight], and [Comprehension], are responsible for enabling practitioners to gradually perceive and come into contact with the existence of the spatial sea of ​​matter.

The three orifices of the middle realm, namely, [Entering Purity], [Accommodating the Body], and [Returning to Oneself], enable practitioners to connect themselves with the spatial sea of ​​matter and "build a ship in the sea," moving with the waves.

Of course, Yuan Jingshui can also actively create ripples in the vast ocean, but it is a step slower than the former.

This requires opening the most important of the nine orifices, the starting point of the latter three orifices—[Zhaohai].

From this starting point, practitioners can use their physical bodies as boats, illuminating and influencing the infinite ocean of space with their own will.

All that is needed is to consume the "quality of the sea of ​​matter" within the body.

She was able to make those lightning spells of Uesugi Tetsuya disappear because she directly banished them into the spatial sea of ​​matter, causing the lightning spells to fall towards an unknown destination.

—At least the Illumination Sea Aperture was opened, and with these seven apertures, the source of still water for the Returning Abyss Qi Sea was achieved. This is the understanding of the Returning Abyss Breathing Method and space.

That's right, Yuan Jingshui did not open up the Qi Sea with all nine orifices, but stopped at the seven orifices, which is already a rare achievement that others envy.

The eldest sister said that her understanding was very wrong, but Yuan Jingshui could not understand the other party's thoughts either.

Because Yuanxin Water had fully opened up the nine orifices, including the two orifices of "Master of the Field" and "Return to the Abyss" that she could never reach no matter how hard she tried or how much she thought.

These two apertures alone not only blocked the source of the still water, but also blocked countless brilliant geniuses of the Yuan family over the past thousand years.

The seventh aperture, [Illumination of the Sea], is basically opened by one person in the Minamoto family every one or two generations, which is why Minamoto Shizumi is envied and worshipped by others.

Because she is considered a genius that the Yuan family produces only once every fifty years.

The eighth aperture, [Master of the Palace], last appeared in the early Meiji era, a full two hundred years ago, and only a few dozen people from the Minamoto family have ever appeared in it in history.

As for the ninth aperture, [Guiyuan]...

Aside from the source of the water, the last time we had to go back to the end of the Heian period was during the Heian period.

Therefore, no one understands Yuan Xinshui.

No one understands the eldest sister, and no one can share her worries.

No one... could gain the approval of the eldest sister.

Minamoto Shizumi gripped the hilt of Hotaru's sword tightly, his eyes as indifferent as ice that had stood for millennia.

coming soon.

Uesugi Tetsuya, whose imposing presence was comparable to dozens of powerful demons standing together, was about to charge towards her like a fully loaded train.

At this moment, the sea of ​​matter within her body remained motionless, maintaining contact with the outside world like a reef.

Despite the surging waves, she remained unmoved.

It's like the premonition of still water from the same source.

The next instant, Uesugi Tetsuya, whose skin color was now exactly the same as the Red Hannya Mask, moved.

fast.

Staring at the demon that was almost touching his nose, this was Yuan Xinshui's first thought.

It was a little bit faster than she expected.

Kaga Kiyomitsu's blade slashed horizontally with the force to tear everything apart, while Minamoto Shizumi had already stepped into the spatial sea of ​​matter, and emerged after riding another wave.

They arrived on Uesugi Tetsu's back...

When their eyes met, burning hotter than a branding iron, Yuan Jingshui's pupils contracted slightly.

Foresight?!
The demon grinned and drew its sword again, forcing Yuan Jingshui, who was already prepared to stab him in the back, back into the spatial sea of ​​matter.

—The effects of being in the overlimit state are naturally more than just a significant increase in Uesugi Tetsu's physical and mental abilities.

And there's also futuristic vision.

This is an existence that can be described as a cheat code in battle.

Before Minamoto no Shizumi appeared, Uesugi Tetsu suddenly turned around again, looking at an empty space with nothing in it.

Kaga Kiyomitsu, who had been gathering his strength, collided with Hotarumaru, who had just appeared, causing Minamoto Shizumi to disappear again with a frown.

There's something strange—when using futuristic vision to look at the still water source, it inexplicably breaks in the middle, and the time spent peering into the future is far less than a second.

At most, it's the time it takes for the still water source to "teleport".

retreat!retreat!retreat!

In just a few seconds, Kaga Kiyomitsu clashed with Hotarumaru hundreds of times, and in most of the exchanges, the unprepared latter was at a disadvantage.

If it weren't for Yuan Jingshui's own formidable strength, his sword-wielding arms would probably have been blasted into a pile of mud by now.

Just as Uesugi Tetsuya, who was happily hacking away, was about to turn his head again, he discovered that "Minamoto Shizumi" had disappeared from the point of his future vision.

"what?"

He looked again and saw that Yuan Jingshui's figure instantly appeared in the four corners of the arena, and then returned to one place a moment later.

Appearing in four places at once?
Uesugi Tetsuya's pupils flickered like auto-aiming, and after realizing that his opponent's injuries were not improving quickly, he temporarily held back, trying to catch the pattern of the landing points.

Yuan Jingshui used the brief moment to think. If the landing point remained fixed, the consumption of her Qi Sea would be minimal.

By instantly entering and exiting the spatial sea of ​​matter four times like this, it can be maintained for at least half an hour.

If we take it slow, we can manage to get it done in a few hours.

Yuan Jingshui knew clearly in his heart that this was a battle to win the championship, not a so-called competition or sparring.

As long as we can win, as long as we can achieve victory, that's enough.

Uesugi Tetsuya's burst of power can't last long, as long as he can keep dragging things out...

At this moment, Yuan Jingshui remembered what her elder sister had once told her—

"Then we'll defeat him in the Tokyo seeding battle, crush him, and refute everything with facts."

Trampling...me.

Genji Shizumi was slightly taken aback, as if he heard the mocking sound coming from the Hotaru in his hand.

Everything I'm doing now has absolutely nothing to do with "ravaging".

On the contrary, if the eldest sister saw this scene, she would definitely laugh at her with a faint smile and a tone that was not at all mocking.

Just as Yuan Jingshui's emotions were fluctuating, Uesugi Tetsu's eyes, which had been darting around so much, finally settled down.

The secret of the natural rational flow: the sword of ignorance!

The invisible, intangible sword cleanly sliced ​​through the hair on the left side of Kaiyuan Jingshui's head, and then cut her shoulder just before she disappeared.

Pale and pitch black began to erode and spread.

The burning, stinging sensation made Yuan Jingshui no longer hesitate.

She raised the azure blade and gently placed Hotaru on the wound.

Boom!

The three-stage attack, accompanied by thunder and a pale torrent, immediately covered the area where Yuan Jingshui was standing, attempting to stop her actions.

But it's too late.

When Yuan Jingshui reappeared, her skin was covered with ancient, jet-black runes.

That was the curse of Hotarumaru, a demon sword that had existed for a thousand years and slain countless humans and demons.

Yuan Jingshui's face was no longer expressionless, but filled with a bloodthirsty and ferocious smile.

But those eyes were calm and indifferent, devoid of any murderous intent, which chilled the heart.

It reminded Uesugi Tetsu of the night he met the other person in the mountains.

At one point, Yuan Jingshui gave him the same feeling.

Was he controlled by the demon sword?
There was no point in engaging in pointless verbal sparring. All Uesugi Tetsu knew was that if the demon sword were to turn the tables and control her mind, then this was the opportunity that could not be missed.

The viscous paleness and drifting blackness on Kaga Kiyomitsu's body shrank into a thin line barely visible to the naked eye, and it moved forward at a terrifying speed that it had never experienced before.

In a moment of confusion, Xiao Jia felt himself collide with the nodachi that kept shouting "Kill! Kill! Kill!" once again.

The force that could even slice a small mountain in half made it groan inwardly.

But this time...

Kaga Kiyomitsu stared with difficulty at the sapphire-like, brilliant blade, and saw his master and the girl who was almost one with the demon sword step back from each other.

have equal shares?

No, that's not right, it's the master who's better...

Before its slightly joyful thought could even take hold, it felt a tremor in its heartstrings, and it only had time to shout...

"Master, upstairs—"

Even faster than its cry, and even faster than Uesugi Tetsu's upward swing of his sword, was the two-foot-tall man who had been preparing for this moment until now.

After flashing in several directions, Hotarumaru appeared from mid-air and fell straight down towards Uesugi Tetsu's head.

What stood in its way was a two-foot-tall, two-meter-tall adult, or rather, an eight-foot-tall bodhisattva, wielding dozens of stacked shields.

Undoubtedly, the high-strength shield, which was not afraid of even ordinary powerful demons, was easily torn apart like paper.

Then, the long, azure blade tore through the breastplate and pierced into the body of the two-foot-tall man.

A fleeting look of pain crossed Er Chi's face, but it was quickly replaced by a deeper resolve.

Xiao Jia screamed: "Two feet—"

Before Xiao Jia's thoughts could even travel through his mind, Uesugi Tetsuya had already drawn his sword.

Beside Hotarumaru, Kaga Kiyomitsu pierced the chest of the two-foot-tall woman from below, tearing apart the qi circulation and penetrating her abdomen under the unseeing gaze of Minamoto Shizumi.

Beneath the mask of the Red Prajna, his eyes remained completely still, solemn as iron.

Just as the compressed lightning and the sorrow of parting erupted on the blade, Yuan Jingshui barely disappeared into the air.

A magnificent display of purple and white fireworks burst in the sky, reflected in the eyes of the two-foot-tall man.

The two-foot-tall adult, who should have been intangible, crashed heavily to the ground.

The still water has reappeared.

The girl reached into her body through the wound on her abdomen, and after a series of movements, she forcefully pulled out all the pale flesh and internal organs, panting slightly.

He was so close... to dying from that sword strike.

A large number of incantations surged towards the wound, suppressing the remaining effects of the grief of separation and the plague.

In the distance, the demon grinned.
"One strike for one strike, now we're even."

"No, Uesugi-kun."

Yuan Jingshui stared directly at him, as if stating a fact.
"After this strike, your shikigami has already left the battlefield."

—In fact, after the stalemate just occurred, Yuan Jingshui's initial target was Erchidaren.

Because she could vaguely sense that Uesugi Tetsu's shikigami was constantly healing and restoring him through some means.

Her location was predicted by Uesugi Tetsu, which may also be the work of this shikigami.

As for Uesugi Tetsuya's terrifying speed of injury recovery, Minamoto Shizumi has witnessed it more than once.

Therefore, pick the softest persimmons first.

It's better to cut off an arm than to injure all ten fingers.

But... why is there not even a hint of worry in Uesugi Tetsu's eyes?
As if in response to her question, Uesugi Tetsu chuckled softly.
"is it?"

He raised Kaga Kiyomitsu, but did not point at Minamoto Shizumi.

"Take a look behind you."

Yuan Jingshui suddenly turned around and saw the two-foot-tall man who should have been lying on the ground, unable to move.

The skirt armor and complex shield were gone, and a full, voluptuous body, gleaming with brilliant golden light, and a loud laugh were displayed before her with great tension.

Blocking out the sky!

At this moment, how could the two-foot-tall man possibly show any signs of injury?!
Yuan Jingshui instantly suppressed his surprise and swiftly pierced through the vital points of the body with the Firefly in his hand, but he could not stop the two-foot-tall man from continuing to lower the cross spear he was holding high.

Amidst excruciating pain, Niou laughed maniacally.

"Don't underestimate me, Miss Yuan!"

The Eight-Foot King of Benevolence has descended!
