A person in Japan, a sword that soars to immortality.

Chapter 198 Left with no other choice, they could only let someone else benefit.

Kyoto gradually quieted down. After realizing that something was wrong, many civilians who had been hiding at home began to muster their courage and come out to see what was happening.

Small groups of ordinary people emerged from the streets and alleys, and upon meeting, they inevitably exchanged sighs.

"Hey, why is it so quiet?"

"Isn't it good to be quiet? The war must be over by now!"

"Speaking of which, the Choshu Domain is really fierce. In all these years, I have never heard of a powerful local domain daring to attack the capital!"

"The past is the past, and times have changed... Ugh! Ugh!!!"

The man at the front of the group paused for a moment after turning the corner and looking at the gate of the west gate of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, then immediately bent down and vomited.

Those following behind, seeing the man's actions, all stepped forward with puzzled expressions, wanting to see what had happened.

As a result, everyone froze on the spot after seeing the scene in the distance, followed by vomiting, dazedness, and trembling all over.

The gate to the Ha Yu Gate isn't particularly tall; to be more specific, it's about the size of a market archway in a town, like those in a Chinese period drama.

That's why the pile of corpses, towering three or four meters above the ground and almost as high as the threshold of the gate, looked so glaringly conspicuous.

At the top of the pile of corpses, there was a tall man who was using a large katana to pierce through the chest of a samurai and lift him up.

"devil......"

“We, the warriors of Satsuma, will never let you go.”

"You are the greatest threat to the world, and someone, someone will definitely come to defeat you!"

Blood gushed from the samurai's mouth, and his index finger, gripping the blade so tightly, was almost severed.

Taichi, wearing the Shura mask with blue face and fangs, tilted his head and bent his wrist to raise the tip of the Mortal Blade a little higher so that the samurai could slide down.

With a series of cracking sounds, the samurai's fingers were severed, and at the same time, they slid smoothly down the blade and got stuck in the tsuba of the Mortal Blade.

"remember."

"Making threats is only truly making threats if you can actually leave alive."

"Besides, revenge is something you have to do yourself. You expect someone else to defeat me?"

"Perhaps it was possible a long time ago, but now..."

Call ~

A sudden surge of energy began to course through his body, and a golden-red halo suddenly rose from behind Taiyi's head.

The scorching heat caused the air to tremble violently, and the corpse beneath Taiyi's feet began to gradually turn charred black.

The flesh and blood quickly faded, and the smell of burning and charring proteins spread rapidly in all directions.

Like the crackling sound of firewood, the remaining bones were roasted until they were red-hot.

The samurai hanging on the sword, due to the high temperature, had long since become a skeleton, and quickly carbonized, turning into ashes.

The wooden houses started to catch fire. The civilians who had been watching from a distance suddenly realized that a fire had broken out and, disregarding the scene that looked like a divine intervention, all shouted and rushed back to put out the fire.

Swish!

Taiyi casually swung his sword, and the sword energy that spread out swept up the surrounding ash, clearing the ground beneath his feet.

Total Gains of Divine Soul Power +

Raising his hand, he slowly removed the mask from his face. Along with the golden three-legged crow pattern radiating golden light in the center of his forehead, Taiyi's calm face finally revealed a slight smile.

"Hehehe..."

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

"Finally, I have regained control of my body! My power... has returned to me!"

From a soft chuckle with head bowed, it turned into a wild laugh with head held high.

The renewed burst of airflow spread rapidly in all directions, making the already small fire even more intense.

He himself did not expect that he could actually collect so much divine soul power.

I used to hack and slash at anyone I saw, and after hacking around, I was still short of people.

When they returned to the gate of the Gamagoto, they found that many more samurai had gathered there, and judging from their accents, Satsuma and Aizu were the most numerous.

Taiyi didn't care much at the time; he was just worried about not having enough points when someone immediately came to help.

So he stood still and let them surround him.

And what he did next was to keep swinging the knife.

People on the outer edge kept pushing inward, having heard that the Choshu Domain soldiers had fled, but a powerful enemy was still putting up a stubborn resistance.

In an era where there hadn't been a major war in a century, if one wanted to quickly rise in rank through military achievements, one had to accumulate enough merit.

Upon hearing this news, the shogunate soldiers and Satsuma samurai guarding Kyoto rushed towards the gate one after another.

The result...

When the people on the outermost circle saw the scene inside, they were so frightened that they didn't even have the strength to run away.

Taiyi, of course, wouldn't let these people go. With a few swift strokes, he harvested them all.

"Tsk tsk tsk, is it really necessary to be so excited?"

"So you had health problems before. If I had known..."

The ever-flowing frost protected Doma, forming a frosty white sphere that floated in the air.

Sitting inside, Doma rested his chin on one hand, crossed his legs, and looked at Taichi with a smile.

"If only I had known?"

Taiyi turned his sword around, pointed it at Douma with a wicked smile, and continued:

"I knew you couldn't do anything to me, hahaha!"

cut.

Rolling his eyes, Douma shook his head speechlessly, thinking to himself, if he hadn't helped spread the news, why would these people have rushed here so desperately?

But then again...

"Taiyi is really powerful and charming now."

With his eyes curving into two crescent moons, Doma's smile always carried a hint of happiness.

......

Fairyland.

Sakura Dragon, who was standing on the trunk of the evergreen cherry tree, was still pondering how to make a decision.

Just then, thousands of green lines suddenly lit up on the trunk of the cherry tree beneath them.

The immense power of the underworld began to emanate into the air through these veins.

"What's going on? The balance of Yin and Yang in this world has shifted again!"

"It was him, it must have been him!"

"No, I need to speed things up!"

Sakura Dragon frowned, his eyes darting around anxiously.

Once the opponent finds its true form, which is this evergreen cherry tree, then a fierce battle is inevitable.

And whether he can win in the end is still uncertain.

Although the opponent's aura was too overwhelming, I myself have cultivated for thousands of years and my strength is not to be underestimated.

But being injured is never good, and she didn't want to spend another thousand years healing again.

Fortunately, the other party was unaware of my plan.

“A malevolent aura has begun to spread across this land, and chaos is inevitable.”

"Heroes emerge in chaotic times. If I give them a push from behind, this hero might appear even faster!"

With a flick of the wrist, a book with yellowed pages and an antique-style cover appeared in my palm.

Looking at the large characters on the cover, which he had personally written—"The Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bridge Scripture"—Yinglong's lips slowly curled up.

"When it comes to breathing exercises and refining true qi, my method is the strongest in the world."

With a thought, the large characters on the cover immediately changed, eventually becoming the words "Flying Sword Manual".

"Whether it's refining Yin or Yang, the principles are the same."

"Combined with my secret technique of absorbing the life force of others to restore my primordial spirit, if I give all of these things to Kenshin, he should be able to become incredibly powerful in a short period of time."

Hmph, that kid got off too easy!

Sakura closed her eyes, clutching the book tightly, as if she was still a little reluctant to part with it.
