I am a god-slayer, not your hero.

The zither rang out, soaring straight into the sky like a shooting star flying in reverse, tearing through the heavens with determination and unyielding spirit, crashing into the golden sword formation.

Like the impact of a massive collision between heaven and earth, it swept in all directions, shaking the entire world.

In an instant, all the golden swords vanished into thin air in the blink of an eye!

It was as if a golden ocean had been suddenly torn apart; the golden swords shattered under the impact of the resounding zither, turning into countless golden rays that scattered in all directions.

The golden swords did not disappear; more and more golden swords appeared, surging like a tide, constantly chasing Mingxian's figure.

The zither burst forth from the golden sea of ​​light, like a dragon weaving through the shimmering ocean.

Unable to stop, it could only continue rushing forward, plummeting into the distance.

boom!

The earth first trembled as if it were a drumhead.

The zither, propelled by immense inertia, traced straight lines across the ground, like a sharp blade slicing the earth into pieces.

Long ravines were plowed out, and buildings, trees, and stones along the way were all smashed to pieces, turning into ruins.

Amidst these ruins, Mingxian, with its horns and indestructible body, rose to its feet.

"This power, similar to [Steel Protection], has only one means of output: a flying collision." Mingxian sighed inwardly, while simultaneously circulating his magic power, drawing upon the cursed power within his body, and surging it outward, as if preparing to charge again.

The power seized by killing Chiyou came from Chiyou's "steel-like" nature.

Similar to Tony's power in the original work, "Protection of Steel," but it combines offense and defense and has greater versatility.

That was the power that Salvatore Tony usurped in the original story by killing Siegfried, the hero of the Norse kingdom.

When used, hundreds of runes appear around you.

It endows the body with the hardness and weight of steel, and the power to protect oneself; ordinary collapses are nothing compared to rain.

The power of his body is unparalleled in both weight and hardness, making it impossible for Tony to be easily blown away. Moreover, his movements do not become sluggish due to the increased weight, so he can also use this super weight for attacks. Striking enemies with such a body is very effective.

The biggest weakness of the Steel Guard is high temperature, but even so, it can withstand a high-temperature attack equivalent to a solar flare for more than ten minutes and only get sunburned.

Besides offense and defense, the steel body also allows Tony to survive without oxygen or food, even if he stays in water or a vacuum for years.

In addition, as a last resort, Tony can enter a state of suspended animation to avoid fatal attacks, but in this state, he will be completely defenseless and at extremely high risk.

Compared to [Steel Protection], Chi You's power is almost identical in terms of defensive capabilities, but it cannot increase weight, nor can it increase defensive capabilities by adding runes. As for faking death and resurrection, that is even less possible.

In addition, it has the disadvantage that injuries cannot heal on their own.

However, in addition to these shortcomings, Chi You's power also brought him formidable offensive capabilities.

—Flying Collision!

Since the body has become a weapon, it can naturally be used to stab the enemy.

This is the impact, like a comet crashing into the enemy, causing a huge blow.

If it were to crash into the ground from the air, it could easily sink the island, but it is not agile enough and cannot be easily controlled, so it cannot fire in rapid succession.

With this powerful blow, the bronze and iron armor on Mingxian's body fell off, seemingly as residue burned away by the high temperature.

Its fingers are white claws, bone blades have appeared on its arms, horns have emerged from the temples of its head, its feet, which originally looked like iron boots, have disappeared, revealing the shape of dragon feet, and even a short iron tail has grown from the tailbone.

If the golden sword continues to tear him apart, the bones inside his body that have become "swords" might break through his flesh and turn him into a dragon.

The Golden Sword must be stopped!

In the distance, war drums resounded, producing a magnificent sound—the very power of wisdom.

"The way you are fighting the Golden Sword right now is a manifestation of Chi You as the God of Comets."

"Comets are considered ominous stars, commonly known as 'sweeping stars.' Although they represent disasters, they are still objects of worship."

"Comets were seen by the ancients as beings that move in the sky in the shape of snakes, and were also deities that would fall to earth and become dragons. The character 'Chi' is a combination of a foot representing walking and a snake representing disaster."

"The ancients believed that the five stars in the sky corresponded to the five elements, and that the evil stars were formed by the convergence of the turbid energy of the five elements, which would bring disaster."

"This is Chi You's earliest form of divinity!"

"As time went by, Chi You, as the dragon and snake god and the comet god, was further deified, and he picked up the axe (steel) to participate in the great war of the gods."

"The great battle between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You was a conflict between the gods. The cloud god killed the evil star dragon and snake that brought disaster. These myths and stories were layered on top of each other, so much so that they lost their original appearance."

"After becoming a Holy King, Chi You became the master of weapons, and as a dragon and snake, he became a member of the God of Steel!"

"Dragons and snakes, comets, weapons..."

The countless replicas of the golden swords around them instantly transformed into dazzling streaks of sword light, traversing the void with lightning speed, and swiftly disappearing into the majestic body of the original golden sword, like rivers flowing into the sea and stars returning to their places.

Above the entire Joy Island, in the sky, the clouds and dust that were originally chaotic due to the surge of divine power were miraculously wiped away in an instant by this irresistible force.

All that could be seen was a vast expanse of blue sky, clear and bright, a scene that soothed the soul.

boom!

Immediately afterwards, the aura of the golden sword suddenly erupted, its magnificent sword intent soaring into the sky like a dragon rising from the heavens, shaking the world.

Mithra's golden sword was a sharp sword that tore apart divinity.

Words can become power.

Wisdom can become majesty.

Eloquent words reveal the enemy's true nature and explain the source of divine power, allowing the golden sword to sever that power and tear apart divine essence.

This is the most powerful sword for god-slayers and disobedient gods.

The golden sword hung high in the sky, its golden aura blazing, its imposing presence as magnificent and majestic as a blazing sun.

The sword intent was vast and boundless, chilling the heavens and earth.

If he were hit by this sword, he would probably die instantly.

Having reached this conclusion, Mingxian finished gathering his strength.

boom!

With a leap, he shot off like an arrow, hurtling headlong in one direction.

The air seemed to sense his determination, spontaneously coalescing into an invisible wall in an attempt to block the unstoppable momentum. However, these air walls were as fragile as paper, mercilessly shattered by the indestructible impact of the zither.

The target of the collision was the imposing war drum on the beach 500 meters away.

boom!

A deafening roar seemed to shake the heavens and earth, and a terrifying shockwave swept in all directions. Circles of pale light spread outwards like ripples on the surface of water caused by pebbles.

Countless pieces of soil and gravel were sent flying into the sky by the impact, creating a cloud of dust that blotted out the sun.

The war drums were no match for the enormous impact and were smashed to pieces!

The fragments fell like raindrops, scattered all over the ground.

The zither was plunged into the earth upside down, surrounded by fragments of war drums and flying dust.

This time at least it didn't fly that far...

I let out a slightly self-deprecating laugh.

The golden sword in the sky suddenly faltered, losing its eloquent words, and seemed somewhat bewildered.

A sword is still a sword.

There must be someone who wields a sword.

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was destroyed by Mithra's divine thunder hundreds of years ago and died on the spot. She is still accumulating power to revive, so she naturally cannot come in person to use this divine sword.

Therefore, the war drums were used to deliver eloquent words, commanding the golden sword to tear apart Chi You's power.

At this moment, the war drums were destroyed, and the golden sword fell into chaos.

"Truly astute, seizing this opportunity." The illusory figure of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was lavish in its praise, but then changed the subject: "It's a pity that the sword that severed 'Chi You's' divine status is already complete; it just needs a gentle push."

As the words fell softly, countless paper soldiers instantly flattened, transforming into paper cutouts as thin as cicada wings. They were swept up by a chilling, icy wind and drifted leisurely towards the sky, like a flock of returning geese gathering towards the distant horizon.

In an instant, it automatically wove together into a huge and bizarre hand.

This large hand, made of paper, may lack the warmth of flesh and blood, but it exudes an undeniable majesty and resolve.

The paper hand slowly extended, its fingertips trembling slightly, and gently rested on the hilt of the golden sword. At that moment, it seemed as if an ancient pact was made between the sword and the hand, and the two merged into one, releasing a dazzling yet ominous light.

"Emperor Taihui, guard the spirit in the alchemy chamber, quickly prepare weapons and armor, expel evil and assist righteousness, spread yang energy throughout the body, restore the Yellow Court, with heavenly talisman and imperial power, shake the weapons."

Holding a sword in her hand, a cold and sharp blade slashed through the sky, pointing directly at the inconspicuous zither on the ground!

Not Agito: Chapter Thirteen I Must Send Two Hanging Scrolls

A cold and sharp blade ripped through the sky, pointing directly at the inconspicuous zither on the ground!

Faced with such a life-or-death crisis, Mingxian sprang to his feet with surprising agility and landed steadily on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the armor on the chin opened slowly to the sides as if an ancient mechanism had been activated, revealing sharp metal teeth inside that resembled dragons and snakes, gleaming with a cold light.

"what!"

With a deafening roar, the surrounding fragments of war drums seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, all flying towards the zither.

They intertwined in the air to form a deadly web, each fragment containing enough destructive power to kill.

Mingxian, however, showed no fear and opened its large mouth filled with sharp metal teeth.

The moment all the war drum fragments touched his mouth, they were drawn in by an invisible force and swallowed whole.

boom!

Centered on the piercing string, cracks appeared on the ground and spread outwards.

The magic power controlled the spell power, and the spell power propelled the authority, refining the Xuan Nu War Drum that had just been consumed in the abdomen. In the blink of an eye, something incredible happened.

Countless tiny metal wires emerged from the gaps between the black steel muscles and armor plates in the waist area, forming a metal belt around the waist.

Boom!Boom!

The sound of war drums resounded from the heavens, like the roar of an ancient god, shaking people's hearts and minds. The brilliance on the golden sword suddenly weakened by three points, as if even the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was intimidated by the sound of the drums and dared not approach easily.

The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden's war drum was swallowed by Mingxian and refined for his own use!
