Starting with the divine power of the Great Vajra, he traversed the heavens.

Chapter 510 Transforming Qi into Form
"Boom!"

Lightning flashed across the sky, and thunder rumbled.

The man in the iron coffin, wearing a straw hat, stared silently at the woman in front of him with his bloodshot eyes.

This person's name is Daiichi Munaka, and he comes from the Japanese martial arts tradition.

His life was filled with hardship. Originally a young master from a martial arts family, he became a commoner after his family's downfall. Later, through a series of events, he mastered the evil art "Silent Annihilation," which required him to consume the yin energy of the corpses of the strong to survive, thus becoming neither human nor ghost. He was hunted down by the martial arts world of Japan and eventually joined the Hidden Sword School, becoming one of its four protectors.

Oh, just a side note, Dainichi Zongguo and Yuemei Fuxi had a relationship back then, but he later abandoned Yuemei Fuxi.

This is why Yue Mei Fu Xi harbors such resentment towards him.

Hongxiu looked at the figure on the altar and chuckled, "You're the strongest among these people?"

Da Ri Zong Guo asked, "So you're the One-Sword Immortal?"

"Yes, that's me." Hongxiu smiled, pressing her hand to her waist.

"Me too."

Da Ri Zong Guo narrowed his eyes, then suddenly flicked his sleeve, covering a distance of four zhang, and grabbed at Hong Xiu with a claw!
"howl!"

This man's hands were as pale as a dead man's, his fingernails sharp and about a foot long, like five small daggers. His pounce was swift as lightning; in the blink of an eye, he had grabbed Hongxiu's face. The surrounding sounds were like ghostly wails, and the entire small temple resounded.

Musashi Mori, recognizing the danger, blurted out, "Good!"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a sudden "whoosh".

A flash of light, like thunder and lightning, suddenly appeared inside the small temple, bringing with it an overwhelming aura of malevolence as it slashed straight down.

when!
As the blade and claw clashed, Da Ri Zong Guo was sent flying backward, the blade light shattering into countless shadows, like a sudden rainstorm.

Dainichi Sōka coldly shouted, "How dare you!" He then casually swung the iron coffin and smashed it straight down.

Bang bang bang!
Flames roared, and the red-sleeved sword's power was terrifying. The iron coffin of the Great Sun Sect Fruit was as heavy as if it had fallen from the sky. With the surge of energy, the small temple swayed and dust fell from the roof tiles.

Yue Mei Fu Xi frowned deeply. She had seen many sword techniques, but she had never seen such a dangerous, evil, and illogical sword technique!
Unlike typical knife techniques that involve wrapping around the head and slashing horizontally or vertically.

The "Great Evil King" wielded by Hongxiu's left hand has a twisted blade, and its sword path is always unorthodox, twisted, and bizarre.

Logically speaking, although the knife moves along a curved path with many variations, its speed and power will inevitably be affected, since "the shortest distance between two points is a straight line," which is beyond doubt.

Strangely, although Hongxiu's sword strikes didn't seem fast, she always arrived first despite being behind, as if space itself was distorted, and all concepts of distance were twisted and altered.

So the two exchanged a few more blows, and then with a "whoosh," the Great Evil King suddenly veered to the right and snapped the iron coffin in half.

With a single slash, Hongxiu cleaved open the iron coffin, leaping into the air. The hundred-pound "Great Evil King" seemed weightless in her hands, and the white blade light, like snowflakes in the dead of winter, drifted away with a chilling evil intent.

"Heh, such overwhelming evil aura! The Great Evil King truly lives up to his name, so powerful." Da Ri Zong Guo chuckled and threw a punch.

Suddenly, a purplish-black aura appeared on his fist, like a thunderbolt, and he swept away through the air.

With several clangs, the sinister and ferocious "Silent Annihilation and Violent Death" sent the blade flying in all directions.

Hongxiu raised an eyebrow: "Your kung fu is not bad either!" With a flick of her wrist, the blade light flickered a few times, then gathered into a cloud of pale white smoke, which slashed down in an arc.

brush!
This slash came and went in a flash, incredibly fast, like a ghost or a phantom.

Upon seeing this, Da Ri Zong Guo flipped his iron palm, creating a gust of wind. The blades clashed with it and all changed direction, shooting back towards the nearby people.

Musashi Mori and Tsukime Fuyu cursed under their breath, one wielding a sword and the other a palm strike, as they clashed and fought against the flashing blades.

In a flash, blood splattered everywhere. Musashi Mori, whose skill was the weakest, was stabbed twice in the shoulder and back, leaving a large patch of flesh torn away. He screamed and staggered back.

"Bah!"

Moon Demon arrived in a flash, her hands raised like two venomous snakes, reaching towards Red Sleeve.

Hongxiu glanced at her sideways, then swung out her right hand with "Candle Flower Red," and with a clang, the blade struck both of her hands.

Yue Mei Fu Xi trembled, her blood boiling, and she fell backward. Sensing something was wrong, she quickly retreated.

Suddenly, Hongxiu's dark eyes stared at them.

hum!
Moon Demon Fu Xi's mind went blank for a moment, and she froze.

Just then, a flash of red light appeared, and the demonic blade extended and retracted like lightning, viciously slashing at the old woman's left arm.

The blade pierced through flesh and bone, and the Moon Demon Fu Xi screamed in agony.

Taking advantage of the momentum, Hongxiu spun wildly, forcefully wielding her demonic blade. The blade firmly gripped Yuemei Fuxi's arm. With "Candle Red" as the handle and the old woman as the hammer, the man and the blade became one, forming an iron hammer.

The little beggar used his hammer technique, and with the force of his internal energy, the Moon Demon Fuxi, as light as a feather, was flung into the air and crashed into the Great Sun Sect Fruit.

As the old woman rushed towards him, a cold glint flashed in Dainichi Zongguo's eyes. Instead of intercepting her, he mustered all his strength and struck her heart with a powerful palm!

"Dog thief!"

The Moon Demon Fu screamed with resentment and swung her palm at his face.

In a flash, the little beggar seized the opportunity, gave a wicked smile, and with a sudden flick of his wrist, the blade trembled, and the old woman lunged forward, crashing into the arms of the Great Sun Sect Member.

boom!
The two immense forces collided, and the purplish-black energy and the soft white energy scattered in all directions, tearing the ground apart. The two people immediately took a step back.

Just then, with a whoosh, the roof tiles shattered, and heavy rain poured down with the broken pieces. At the same time, a gleaming white blade flashed.

As soon as Hongxiu looked up, she felt a dark shadow like a mountain and a fierce wind pressing down on her. It was a big man wearing iron armor, who was wielding a knife with both hands and slashing fiercely.

This man, named Wuliang Yidao, was Musashi Mori's most trusted general. His swordsmanship was so formidable that he could be called a peerless swordsman.

Hongxiu's eyes were red and black, and she dodged the knife with a slight movement.

Left hand: Great Evil King; Right hand: Red Candle Flower; Twin swords crossed in a scissor-like motion!
Click!

Wuliang Yidao's Japanese sword was shattered into pieces.

That wasn't all. To his horror, the two swords circled around his body from left to right.

With a few hissing sounds, his limbs fell to the ground. Wuliang screamed in agony as blood gushed from his shoulders and thighs, his hands and feet severed.

Hongxiu had just finished her attack when she suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind her. It turned out that Musashi Mori had stood up and thrust his sword out.

"You're really annoying."

Hongxiu frowned, dodged to the side and slashed at the knife with her backhand.

In an instant, cold light shone everywhere, and a chilling aura swept through the sky.

Musashi Mori swung his sword to block, shouting fiercely, "Ren Hongxiu, aren't you as strong as a diamond? Why are you dodging?" In his shock and anger, his voice was high and shrill, his hair was disheveled, and his blood-red eyes glared, like a vicious wolf howling to the sky.

Hongxiu laughed heartily, brandishing her twin swords. The red and white blades flashed like wheels, sometimes shooting forward, sometimes striking backward, with thunderous and lightning-like movements, causing Musashi Mori to retreat step by step.

"Faster, faster, faster! If you go any faster, I'll tell you!"

Chi Chi!
Musashi Mori felt as if the attack of the twin swords was like the sky collapsing and the earth crumbling. Despite his desperate defense, his head and face were still covered in blood, and the blade of his Japanese sword was chipped.

"Ahhhh~!"

Musashi Mori roared, his voice filled with extreme grief and indignation.

He considered himself the overlord of Japan, a peerless hero who aspired to conquer the world. But to his utter disgrace, he was repeatedly defeated by a woman!
when!
Hongxiu brushed aside the knife, her eyebrows twitching, and she impatiently shouted, "What are you yelling for!" As soon as she finished speaking, the blade flashed like lightning, tearing through the sky and disappearing in an instant.

"Help me!" Musashi Mori cried out in terror, his eyes wide.

"Boom!"

Dainichi Zongguo's feet didn't touch the ground, and the phosphorescent light in his palm flickered, bright as a rainbow and dark as autumn water. With a whoosh, he struck the little beggar in the back!

At the same time, the heavy rain in the sky was suddenly drawn away by the Moon Demon Fu Xi's unparalleled qigong, and she shouted: "Boundless Qi Sea!"

With a wave of his hands downwards, a torrential downpour surged towards the little beggar, dense and countless.

In the blink of an eye, palm strikes and bursts of energy struck the woman in red, ready to erupt.

suddenly!

Their hands suddenly went empty, and both of them paled, exclaiming in unison, "Transforming Qi into form?!"

Huh~!

Hongxiu gave a strange smile, her body silently transforming into a wisp of bloody smoke, which vanished without a trace in the wind, leaving only a lingering echo.

"Don't be too happy yet, I'll deal with you all after I get out of quarantine!"

At that time, the dark clouds were as black as ink, the rain fell like a waterfall, and the heavy night was as thick as lead and iron, pressing down on the world.

Dainichi Zongguo and Yuemei Fuxi stood in the rain, their expressions gloomy and burning with anger.

"hateful!"

"Ren Hongxiu, you deserve to die!"

Musashi Mori leaped up, his body covered in blood gushing out.

He wiped the blood off his body, licked it clean with his tongue, and snarled, "Very good, very good." He had been punched in the throat, and his voice was muffled.

Moon Demon Fu Xi narrowed her eyes and grinned, sneering, "If the One-Knife Immortal is this terrifying, then how powerful must the Sword God be?"

Da Ri Zong Guo didn't speak, but glanced at the old woman slightly, thinking to himself, "It seems I need to absorb her disciple's power ahead of time and achieve the highest realm of 'Silent Annihilation and Fierce Death'!"

Just as the three of them fell silent, each harboring their own secrets.

Damn!
The world was suddenly stained with a layer of blood!
The Demon Blade "Candle Flower Red" is back!

This indescribable streak of blood-red light seemed to tear through the void, meandering and slicing through the continuous rain curtain at waist level.

Where the blade flashed, screams erupted within a hundred feet, blood splattered into the air, and countless heads shot into the sky like fireworks!

"This is~"

Musashi Mori's face suddenly turned pale. "My 'two hundred hatamoto'! Dead, all of them dead?"

These "two hundred bannermen" were originally there to besiege Wuming, but unexpectedly, they were all beheaded by a blade of light that appeared out of nowhere!

(P.S.: In the original novel, the "two hundred bannermen" were trained to deal with Nie Feng, and they were surprisingly effective. Here, they've been changed to Nameless, since both of them are pretty incompetent in actual combat anyway.)
