Curse Return: Swordsmith Start

Chapter 75 The Power of the Cursed Spirit (Fifth Update)

"If you're going to do it, do it quickly, that guy is still a bit troublesome."

Yue Ren had no time for pleasantries and gestured for the other party to quickly subdue the real person, as suppressing the other one would also require consuming magical power.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

As he spoke, Xia Youjie reached out to the real person.

But then, a thunderclap suddenly rang out.

Before either of them could react, Xia Youjie's outstretched forearm vanished, accompanied by a spray of blood and flesh.

The two instinctively turned their heads away, but within a second, they caught the sounds and images of bullets being ejected, loaded, raised, and aimed.

The next clap of thunder sounded again in an instant.

The target this time is Xia Youjie's head.

It was a bullet traveling at near-sonic speed, arriving at Xia Youjie's forehead with the speed of thunder before it had even faded.

Unfortunately, after the first bullet took effect, Yue Ren had already reacted and kicked Xia Youjie away before the second bullet could be fired.

The second shot tore through the air, but missed.

But then came the third shot.

The target this time is the Yue people.

The spent cartridge case rolled to the ground, a new bullet was chambered, and the gun was locked in place.

When the sense of crisis in your heart is frantically alarming, the deadly bullet has already been fired. Facing a bullet with such power and speed, dodging is not worthwhile.

In that case, facing this devastating blow, the "Abyss Rainbow" appeared in Yue Ren's hand.

After calculating the trajectory of the opponent's attack aimed directly at the heart, "Karma's Eye" unleashed a full-force sword strike without hesitation.

At the right time and from the right angle, steel clashed with steel.

The next moment, it shattered, unable to withstand the energy.

In that instant, the moment the longsword's blade made contact with the bullet, the body could not withstand such an energy impact, and both met the same end—self-destruction.

The bullet and the longsword shattered simultaneously, and under this immense force, the Yue man's body flew backward.

By the time he regained his footing, the heavily wounded Spear Spirit had already arrived beside him.

At this moment, the Yue people finally saw clearly what the other side had used to cause such damage.

It was a gun that materialized from an arm, and its unique appearance made it clear to even Yue Ren, a novice when it came to firearms, what it was.

Heavy Sniper Rifle - Barrett.

It's a powerful weapon in the human world, enhanced with cursed power, so it's not surprising that it has such power and speed.

The first shot was probably mainly to prevent Xia Youjie from touching the real person; otherwise, even if it had been a little closer to Xia Youjie's body, he probably would have been torn to pieces.

But did he really have such a powerful move? He underestimated his opponent.

I never expected that the other party would disregard their own safety to save someone, abandoning most of their defenses to snipe, and with such an imperceptible attack at that... This guy is outrageous.

The cursed spirit did not attack again, giving the Yue people time to consider the battle situation.

Xia Youjie's chest was still heaving, indicating that the problem wasn't serious. As for the cursed spirit, its body was already covered in wounds from the attacks of the swords made by the Boundless Sword. This was probably the result of reducing its defenses to save the real person. Just now, it seemed to be handling the situation with ease.

Moreover, the illusion of Barrett has disappeared, and his body is fluctuating violently, indicating that he has expended a lot of energy and will likely not be able to use this move again for a while.

Just as they were preparing to attack again, something unexpected happened to the Yue people.

The cursed spirit actually grabbed the real person and then... shoved him into its own chest?

What's going on? Is it going to devour something...? It even has this function?

The Yue people were stunned.

Even the real person, whose consciousness had just returned, noticed the anomaly.

"Impeach?"

"Real person, use me."

Upon hearing this, the real person was taken aback, but then smiled after feeling the knowledge of the spell power flowing into his mind.

"OK!"

Thus, when the spell powers of the two cursed spirits truly came into contact, a tremendous change occurred.

The earth shook violently, followed by an unbelievable expansion.

"6

'

For the first time, the Yue people were stunned in the presence of an enemy.

As he watched the thing gradually obscure the sky, Yue Ren, his body trembling slightly, finally forced out two words.

"Damn it..."

'

What the hell is this thing??

Not far away, Xia Youjie, who had just regained consciousness after a brief period of unconsciousness, immediately realized that the battle was not over after smelling the gunpowder in the air.

The excruciating pain and numbness in his arm tormented Xia Youjie, making his expression contorted in agony.

He knew he had been careless, but at the same time he felt fortunate.

Thanks to Yue Ren's kick, he's not dead yet.

These two cursed spirits are not to be underestimated at all; such an attack is simply outrageous.

At the same time, he was also annoyed that he had stumbled twice on the same issue.

The reason he didn't notice the attack was because it was outside his range of spell power perception, just like when Ion was killed. The bullet was condensed from spell power, but after it was converted into mass, it lost its spell power fluctuations, so there was no warning at all.

Damn it, just how slow am I to the bone? Haven't I been completely left behind by Wu?

With his remaining arm, Xia Youjie slammed his fist into the ground, struggling to get up and fight again, but the next moment, the world began to tremble.

Huh? What's going on? Isn't this a domain? Why is it trembling...?

When Xia Youjie, his mind a jumble of emotions, looked up and turned toward Yue Ren, his gaze was equally vacant.

There was only one question on my mind.

"What is that?!"

It is so tall that humans have to strain to look back to barely see the edge of its trunk.

The clouds in the sky were shattered by its body, and the wind twisted around it into a vortex, so that even the light dared not approach, and a gloomy darkness settled around it.

The head had no face, only a giant cannon-like gun barrel protruding from the center of the skull, the dark muzzle hanging down, aimed at the two people at their feet, or rather, at the ground where the two people were standing.

It was not any firearm made by humankind; it was a concrete representation of countless shooting tragedies, near-death despair, and flying flesh and blood, cold, hard, and grotesque, with a dull weight that could crush everything.

His arms were covered with firearms. AKs, M16s, shotguns, sniper scopes... countless cold metal barrels grew out of his bones, intertwining and crisscrossing like thorns reaching out from hell.

The ammunition belts dangled from his shoulders, dragging on the ground. They weren't made of metal links, but of writhing flesh, each link embedded with a shrunken, agonizingly distorted human face. Their mouths were open, but they couldn't utter a sound, only wailing silently with the gun demon's movements.

The chest cavity was open, and the ribs protruded outward like rusty iron bars, with the spaces between them filled with countless heads.

There were elderly people, children, men and women, their expressions frozen in the instant they were shot and fell to the ground—a mixture of fear, pain, and despair, layered upon layer, forming its beating heart.

It has no legs; its lower body consists of six thick, fleshy chains driven into the ground, deeply embedded in this barren land.

There were no footsteps when they moved, only the dull, sticky sound of the belt dragging along, like the Grim Reaper dragging his scythe across flesh and blood.

"Hahahaha... This is fantastic! Impeachment, this is the real you! Hahahaha... Indeed, we are the best partners ever!!"

A real voice came from inside the body of this colossal creature, which was hundreds of meters tall.

The sound was so excited, so fervent, that even it was shocked by the hidden power of its companion. This was true despair.

At this moment, it is inside the fully liberated cursed spirit called Impeachment, sitting in a place resembling a cockpit.

It resides within the cursed spirit, which has shed its placenta and revealed its true form.

It is a weapon, something the cursed spirit called Impeachment has been emphasizing, and only now does the true man understand its meaning. Yes, this companion really is a weapon, an item.

It's something that needs someone to use it.

The situation has completely reversed at this moment.

Unlike Xia Youjie, who was completely dazed, Yue Ren's eyes were filled with discomfort.

He was completely dumbfounded. What was going on? How could this guy transform into a Gundam? This was just too unfair!

But no matter what, the Yue people knew they had to give it their all, otherwise, given the current situation, they might really crash.

The aura this guy is exuding is just too outrageous; who knows what new tricks he has up his sleeve?

As the spell was unleashed, countless swords and blades revealed their true colors, each carrying its own light as they poured towards this colossal creature.

At the same time, Yue Ren himself was not idle either. He took a quick step and came to Xia Youjie, who was still in a daze, and slapped him while fixing his arm.

"What's going on here? Why are you all just standing around? Hurry up and get in on the attack!"

Xia Youjie belatedly realized what was happening and immediately summoned more cursed spirits to attack the terrifying creature in conjunction with the Yue people's weapons.

Faced with such an offensive, the behemoth lowered its gun barrel slightly. Without aiming, without warning, and without even hearing a gunshot, it only saw the lower-level weapon in front of it explode instantly, turning into blood mist and fragments, as if erased by an eraser.

For "impeachment," what is truly liberated is not only the physical form, but also the methods.

The bullet is no longer a physical projectile; it represents the concept of killing. It is an attack on those weaker than oneself, a lock-on, that is, an elimination.

This thing is a machine that harvests life, needing no reason, no hatred, just like a human stepping on an ant, needing no hesitation, no pity.

Seeing that most of their attacks were ineffective, Yue and his companion immediately realized that if they were to return it to the real world, humanity's true doomsday would be upon them.

Just as the two were struggling with their dilemma, the real person who was actually the "Gundam pilot" was also having a problem.

Although the impeachment force is truly powerful, this is a world of domains, and staying here would be too disadvantageous for them. In the end, they would be worn down and killed.

"Real person, use that."

"Um?"

Following the impeachment proposal, the real person focused their attention on a protruding red button.

This button, covered by a protective shell and not easily touched, is... the ultimate move switch?

Impeachment? Do you still have any surprises for me?

With such joy and questions, Zhenren reached out and pressed the button without hesitation.

Then, under everyone's puzzled gaze, this behemoth raised its head.

Amidst the ear-piercing screeching sound of metal grinding together, the massive cannon barrel at the head of the machine pointed directly at the sky.

The next moment, the power of the spell condensed, and the energy cannon that forced Yue Ren and the other person to cover their faces shot straight towards the Heavenly Blade.

However, the Yue people were amused by this sight.

These two guys want to shatter the "Boundless Sword Bowl"? Do they think it's just an ordinary domain?

Unfortunately, the "Sword Technique Without Elements" lacks any so-called "outer shell," rendering this attack completely ineffective...

The Yue people, who were trying to launch an offensive by taking advantage of this mistake, suddenly stopped, because they found that things were not as they had imagined.

Because the sky turned red.

"The Ultimate Chapter" — "Damocles"

The boy's voice was cold and emotionless, but neither Yue Ren nor Xia Youjie had time to lament the incongruity of the voice, because the name of this "Extreme Anime" was very fitting.

Xia Youjie felt he had lost Li Heng and almost collapsed to the ground.

The Yue people were no longer surprised.

The life-or-death crisis made him tense, and facing this almost certain absolute pressure, the surrounding swords responded to his call, and the Thousand Blades condensed in his hand.

Besides that, he couldn't think of a way to deal with this moment.

"Space-based weapons"

The Yue people couldn't find a more suitable explanation for this thing than these four characters.

He was mistaken; this ability wasn't meant to counter the barrier, but rather to counter them.

Think about it: if we eliminate the user of this domain, then everything else, whether it's the domain or anything else, will disappear, right? It's a simple and brutal principle.

Just as humans imagined, it was like a spear from heaven, piercing through the clouds and breaking through Mach 2.

Kong Heng was instantly ionized, emitting a piercing shriek, but it couldn't keep up with the speed of its descent. The Yue people on the ground only saw a white light descend from the sky, and the next second, annihilation descended.

There was no explosion, no fire, only absolute impact.

Faced with the power to destroy a city in an instant, even with their bodies ablaze, one person still wielded a knife and displayed their indomitable spirit.

The world disappeared at that moment.

The next moment, a pitch-black forest.

Several flashes of light appeared, and several figures reappeared at the scene, or rather, they were thrown out of the well.

The Yue Ren and Xia Youjie, covered in blood, and the Gun Curse Spirit Danhe, who had reverted to his cartoon spinning top form, along with the real person.

With unwavering willpower, Yue Ren rose to his feet, using a reversal technique to heal his body while a blade appeared in his hand. He staggered toward the two cursed spirits.

In the end, he was superior, using the Thousand Sons Blade and closing the inherent barrier to neutralize the attack.

Although his body was exhausted and his spell power well was nearly depleted, he could still finish off two spell spirits that had no spell power left.

These two guys are too dangerous. Even if it costs us everything, we must take them down. Delay could lead to unforeseen consequences, so we must act quickly...

Then-

boom-

A figure descended from the sky.

It crashed between the Vietnamese and the impeachment.

The smoke and dust cleared.

It was another strange figure, one of the four great calamity curse spirits, the Leaky Pot.

He first glanced at the impeachment and the real man, then stared intently at the Yue man with his single eye, as if he were staring at his father's killer.

"Human, you're asking for death."
