Intruders of the Moon World

Although it was hard to believe, what he encountered was not a human being, just a shadow dancing a sword in the woods.

It's not even a ghost, it's just the echo of a former swordsman who stayed here. Originally, this kind of thing would dissipate quickly, but maybe because of the leylines, the shadow has remained until now.

At the beginning, Omi didn't take the ineffective shadow to heart, but unknowingly, he was attracted by the shadow's swordsmanship.The swordsmanship that was as clear as water and as pure as the moon fascinated him.

When he came back to his senses, he had already started a duel with the shadow.

He is one of the strongest swordsmen in the contemporary era, one of the few masters of the [-]th dan, and the opponent is just the shadow of an unknown swordsman, without even self-awareness, just wielding the sword in his hand by instinct.

According to common sense, there is absolutely no possibility for him to fail, but the result... is Omi's failure.

Failed!

Absolute fiasco!

Obviously he has the upper hand in skill, speed and strength, but he can't hide the brilliance of the opponent's sword skills.

For the first time in Omi's life, he felt that his swordsmanship was so funny. It felt like a monkey yelling at the moon with a wooden stick. No matter how loud the monkey screamed, the moonlight would still shine on the earth... .

Although the other party was a shadow, Omi was not hurt in the slightest, but he could never leave here again.

Since then, he has settled in Fuyuki. After a long period of exploration, he gradually discovered the time pattern of the appearance of shadows, so he went up the mountain on these days every month to wait for the appearance of shadows.

Over the years, he has challenged the opponent countless times, and has been defeated countless times. Not only has Kendo not entered the world, but there are signs of decline.

In fact, he also understands that he has an inner demon, and the best choice is to leave the shadow and leave Fuyuki.But his pride as a swordsman prevented him from doing so, and he still had one ambition in his heart: to defeat that terrifying existence!

In the past two years, he has gradually felt that the deadline is approaching, and he believes that this wish should not be fulfilled without accidents in his lifetime.This time, bringing Da He and Ye Qing here is somewhat like entrusting his will.

After all, these two people are the most talented and most hopeful of him.

Of course, it is not his style to force others, if the two are not interested, Omi can only give up.

"Phew... I'm here again, I wonder how your Excellency will greet me this time?"

Omi looked at the forest scenery and took a sip of tea with a smile.

Chapter 48 The Nameless Shadow

Since it was hunting, Ye Qing naturally brought Muzheng for self-defense. As for the "Wild Animal Protection Law"?

Hehe, it's not a crime if you don't get caught...

If you have the ability, go to the toilet to find evidence!

Ye Qing is now slaughtering and roasting, and the bones are all ready to make soup, and he is not going to leave any clues.

......However, what he thought was beautiful, but he wandered around for a long time and didn't even see a rabbit.No matter how big or small the beasts in the mountains are, all the four-legged ones are gone.

"Did you go to church together today? Why isn't there any one?"

Ye Qing gradually deepened, and before he knew it, fog rose up around him, and the sunlight also weakened a lot.

From the beginning, not only beasts, but even the chirping of insects and birds disappeared, and the whole mountain was silent, as if there was no living being.

Ye Qing felt that something was wrong no matter how slow he was, but Duo Mao didn't issue a warning.He has been practicing kendo for so many years, and if this can feel wrong, it would be a shame.

"This situation doesn't look like a trap, it's a bit like an enchantment... But I didn't notice any traces of magic. Could it be a natural spiritual enchantment?"

This kind of naturally formed barrier is very rare. It requires all kinds of conditions to have a very small chance of being created. Ye Qing can encounter it when he enters the second mountain casually. .

"Well, that's... a person?" Ye Qing saw a figure more than ten meters ahead, hidden in the fog.

"Hey~~ Can the people in front hear?" The figure was motionless, Ye Qing was suspicious and approached slowly.

A strange wind sounded, but Muramasa had already unsheathed, and the misty air was blowing on the blade, making a sound like a baby crying.

"You, are you also good at using swords?"

A word came out from the figure, and at the same time as the final sound fell, a sword light swam towards Ye Qing unhurriedly.

Yes, come swim!

Just like the fish in the sea, although the ocean is wide, it can swim freely. Although the world is big, a sword is enough.

This sword light can never be said to be fast. From Ye Qing's point of view, there are several people in the Yanliu Dojo whose sword speed is faster than this, including himself.

But even if everyone's calm and freehand brushwork is added together, it's not half as good as this person!

This is not a lazy swordsmanship, but a sword that is just right. It can weigh Mount Tai with the weight of a feather - the sword light of the silhouette gives Ye Qing such an incredible feeling.

Ye Qing drew his sword to compete, but before he could use the sword, his momentum weakened a bit, barely blocking the sword light, but he felt that his hand was not strong, and the sword light turned, rubbing the edge of Muzheng and continuing to stab.Seemingly touching the village, but not touching the village, Ye Qing didn't know where to start when he wanted to fight back.

Maintaining this delicate realm, the figure uses only one sword to force Ye Qing into a desperate situation in an instant!

Fortunately, his eight years were not in vain, and his sword skills were as instinctive as drinking water and eating.In the face of such a dangerous situation, his pupils shrank slightly, and he turned the blade in an instant, and abruptly made a circle around the trajectory of the sword light, so that it brushed past him.

"call--"

Although the danger was temporarily lifted, Ye Qing did not dare to neglect, he took a deep breath and took a step forward.The knife walks with the arm, the wrist is steady, and a straight stab is driven straight in!

The Murakami sword he used was longer than ordinary swords. He had already calculated the distance between the enemy and the enemy while he was advancing. Although he only moved half a step, his blade was enough to touch the shadow of the enemy.

His knife speed is fast, without any distractions in his mind, and the momentum is very fierce.As Muramasa Jianfeng passed by, a long cry sounded!

Seeing that it was about to succeed, the figure sank unhurriedly: "Bamboo!"

I saw his shoulders sway slightly, and with a snap of his fingers, he retracted the long sword, as if he had drawn the sword for the first time, so that he could sway it with a leisurely sword.

Ye Qing sucked in a breath of cold air: "Close the knife!"

Immediately, his heart tightened. He often had to leave three points of strength with the sword to give himself room to turn his sword. At this time, seeing that the enemy had such a means, he immediately added three points of strength, and went all out for fear of being drilled. Void!

It should be noted that retracting the sword and drawing the sword are the foundation of the basics of kendo, but as the saying goes, the great way is the simplicity, the connotations of these two simple skills are not shallow.

Drawing a sword determines whether it can be preemptive, as well as the strength of the offensive at the beginning, which is a very important part of the battle.The knife determines the fluency and gap size between the moves. If the knife is practiced to a high level, the offensive can be as continuous as the river, one wave after another.

And if you don't practice well, it will be easy for people to find pauses and flaws, and masters can break them in an instant!

Ye Qing also put a lot of effort into retracting the knife and drawing the knife, barely able to achieve the level of Iai, but has never been able to master the perfect knife drawing technique.As for retracting the knife, it was more difficult than drawing the knife. Now he can only use the form of "leaving three-point force" to ensure that his moves are linked together.

If Jianjian went all out, he would not have time to adjust his state, and he would not be able to make every sword perfect.

And the enemy in front of him, after wielding such a terrifying sword, was able to eliminate the sword's momentum with ease and make a new move.

This move "Bamboo Take", there is no flaw in the action, it seems to have achieved the perfect state of closing the knife, how can this not shock Ye Qing.

It is also because of this that Ye Qing put all his energy on the first sword desperately and did not think about the problem of combos - the opponent is much stronger than him in this aspect, and he will definitely die than this!

In that case, it's better to give it a go!

His village is a rare demon sword, which is even more precious in this mysterious and declining age. Ye Qing has an advantage in weapons!

And a dignified but extremely fast thrust, this seemingly simple move can bring the advantages of the weapon to the extreme!

In the face of Ye Qing's attack, the figure has two choices, one is to use the sword to block, the other is to dodge. (If you are facing a stab, Ye Qing's first offensive will have an absolute advantage.)

If he avoids, Ye Qing can take the initiative. If he chooses to block, Ye Qing, who has the dominant weapon, will not suffer.

However, something unexpected happened to Ye Qing.

The figure didn't dodge or hide, the sleeves were vibrating, the long sword was vague, and I didn't know when the sword had swept across Ye Qing's neck.

At this moment, Ye Qing's blade is still half a foot long from the opponent...

Ye Qing only felt his skin cool and his eyes darkened. Under extreme tension, his body seemed to lighten a bit.

But this feeling of approaching death was only for a brief moment, and he quickly woke up.

"Impossible, I clearly calculated it, my sword is definitely faster!" Ye Qing didn't even bother to check the injury, and was full of puzzlement.

"Good sword... Although the sword skills are a little immature, they have a strong meaning. However, it would be better if you can pay more attention to your feet when you use the sword."

The figure took back the long sword and said frivolously: "If you don't have enough feet, you can't do it. To kill people, you can just point the blade to the enemy, protect your body, and you need to pay attention to your feet."

Ye Qing looked at the ground, suddenly stunned...

He concentrated his energy on the sword, only the enemy in his eyes, and he didn't even notice that the distance between himself and the enemy was getting farther.No, it's not just his negligence, but the opponent's footwork skills are also a big factor.

The figure relies on the extra half-foot distance to have the space to swing the sword, and at the same time ignores Ye Qing's lore... In the fight between life and death, he can still be so free and easy.

When Ye Qing touched his neck, his tentacles were wet and slippery, but when he put it in front of his eyes, it was water stains instead of blood.

"......Who are you?"

"I have no name, but you should know Jin..."

Ye Qing looked up, but was surprised to find that the figure had disappeared.

Even the fog around him began to thin.

Ye Qing fell silent and thought about it carefully. The distance between him and the figure was at most a few meters, and the fog was not so thick that he couldn't see his fingers, but he couldn't even see the other person's body and clothing, and only had a hazy impression.

Although there was a sword comparison, Ye Qing's sword didn't touch anything from the beginning to the end. The opponent's sword had no wounds, only water stains... No, what style did he even use for the opponent? The sword did not see clearly!

Ye Qing was horrified: Did I see a ghost?

This figure... Ye Qing faintly knew his identity in his heart, but he felt more and more strange.

"Why did he appear in front of me... Kojiro Sasaki, no, the nameless swordsman!"

Chapter 49 Shrines, Ancient Swords

When the fog was all gone, and there was no light in the darkness, Ye Qing was surprised: The sun was still high a few minutes ago, why did it get dark so quickly?

"strengthen!"

Muramasa was wrapped in dark red magic lines, emitting a crimson weak light in the darkness.Ye Qing used his sword to illuminate the light, probed the four directions, and found that there were dark stone walls around him, and he seemed to be in a cave or tunnel.

I touched the stone wall twice, and it was surprisingly flat. It seems that it was not formed naturally, but artificially excavated.

Ye Qing pondered for a moment. He remembered clearly that he was walking in the mountains and forests with a wide field of vision. There was absolutely no terrain such as caves nearby. The only abnormality was the strange fog and the shadow of the unknown swordsman.

"It seems that I have entered some secret realm... The fog is the entrance, but why did you find me?" Ye Qing was not flustered.

This encounter, although bizarre, is not incomprehensible.Whether it is the Celestial Dynasty or Japan, there are many similar myths and legends, the most famous is the allusion of "March in the middle of the hole, the world has been thousands of years".

Since Duo Mao didn't react at all, there should be no danger nearby.

Ye Qing lifted the village high up, listened intently, turned a half circle, and finally heard a faint sound of wind.After determining the direction, Ye Qing groped forward along the stone wall, relying on the faint light from the village.
