Chapter 1518 1490. Temple of God

The development of martial arts in this world seems to have resulted in the super control of physical strength by these techniques.

[Zanshin] can quickly stir up one's own life breath, allowing the physical strength that has not been completely consumed to quickly recover. In this process, the fluctuation of life breath can also suppress the power of the underworld and break the [eternal world].

There are many other techniques that can weaken and attack the physical strength of other people and monsters.

Axiu's double sword technique [Wind God] seems to be very good at this technique.

The turning and kicking after slashing seems ordinary, but it can make the enemy's physical strength disappear completely out of thin air, or even completely lose all strength!

This bandit staggered backwards, unable to stand firmly, and finally fell to the stone steps unable to get up due to weakness in his legs and feet. This is an example.

The double swords showed no mercy to the enemy lying on the ground unable to resist.

Just like A Xiu had executed the hungry ghost before, the two blades were held upside down and stabbed into the body. When pulling away, he still held the handle of the knife and turned it half a circle.

Without any pause, the two of them rushed directly to the torii gate with red paint and blue tiles, and then rushed upward.

The further you walk towards the shrine in the deepest part of the village, the closer you get to the mountain wall behind Shisanying Village.

The upward stone steps are built between the mountain walls on both sides.

And just as Lan En climbed up more than a dozen steps, he slightly tilted his head to the left.

The next moment, it was like responding to his movements.

"Whoa whoa!"

A hungry ghost that was screaming randomly suddenly climbed up from the sunken platform on the mountain wall on both sides of the stone steps without any warning, then opened its mouth and flew down!

These little ghosts from the realm of hungry ghosts in the underworld are as active as crazy when they have something to eat.

And if there is nothing to eat, they will lie on the ground like a dead thing, and the yin energy on their bodies is also well covered.

It's a pity that the sensitivity of the demon hunter's senses is not at the same level as that of ordinary people.

"Meow?!"

The velvet ball didn't have as sensitive a perception as Lan En, but it was really startled by the hungry ghost that suddenly jumped down.

The other party's widely opened arms and eager mouth were obviously coming for Lan En.

The kitten's position on Lan En's shoulder happened to be facing the hungry ghost.

So when the hungry ghost who had just pretended to be dead pounced down, the kitten's first subconscious reaction was to quickly hold down its kitten helmet, hold its head and squat in defense, preparing to withstand the impact.

But as the follower cat and apprentice cat, Fluffy Ball didn't notice it, and Lan En certainly didn't notice it.

His arm shot up.

The kitten, which was originally crouching with its head on its shoulders, was blown away.

"Meow?"

The kitten was still a little dazed, but Lan En's raised hand had already grabbed one of the hungry ghost's deformed and thin arms in the air.

"Pong!"

The footsteps kept coming and there was a muffled sound at the same time!

Lan En grabbed the hungry ghost's hand and smashed it directly on the stone steps in front of him like a sack!

Before the hungry ghost's screams for food could be finished, they were immediately covered up by the muffled sound of impact and the crisp sound of the stone steps cracking.

The original ancient but complete stone steps suddenly had a spiderweb-like depression with spreading cracks under this impact.

From the beginning to the end, Lan En had no intention of stopping.

After the fall, his next foothold happened to be the hungry ghost's deformed and enlarged head!

The heavy and solid body and armor, as well as his own physical strength, made Lan En's next step difficult.

It's like a heavy cannon!

There was a loud bang! The force of the vibration could be felt on the entire stone steps, and the joints of the ancient bluestone steps were shaken loose.

All around, the soil in the gaps where weeds and moss had taken root was shaken out.

And that hungry ghost?

It's not just a deformed and enlarged head that Lan En stepped on.

In fact, Lan En's soles directly covered its upper body!

With the sound of cracking bones and squeezing flesh, a large amount of golden mist was squeezed out from the soles of Lan En's boots.

And also after taking this step, everything in Lan En's field of vision turned into gray and white in an instant.

Another piece of [Eternal Darkness]!

But even so, this [Ever Dark] couldn't even slow down Lan En's pace.

In mid-air, the velvet ball that was pushed back stretched its body, with its four little paws facing outwards, just in Axiu's open arms behind Lan En.

It's like holding a baby.

Both Rongbuqiu and Axiu were stunned for a moment. The kitten looked up at the demon hunter and let out a soft "meow" in embarrassment and embarrassment.

I saw Axiu's blue eyes light up.

"Eh?"

She made a sound of uncertainty.

Although she is mute, Axiu can undoubtedly make sounds. After all, the previous [Sword Qi] is essentially the Qihe of exhaling and making a sound.

However, she seemed to have considered that the sudden advance was a bit urgent, so she suppressed some of the urge to give the flannel ball a good rub.

He followed Lan En and rushed upward without stopping.

Because of her stride length, Axiu was slightly behind. But soon, she also stepped into the [Eternal Darkness] holding the flannel ball.

The pair of small, crystal-clear golden ghost horns also reappeared on her forehead.

They are not normal people. When they rush, they are like following the wind.

In just a few breaths, at the end of the stone steps, the courtyard gate surrounded by the sacred cherry tree was already in front of us, tightly closed.

But on the side of this stone staircase, the door of the village chief's residence and the priest's shrine was tattered and open.

And in the [Eternal Darkness], which is quieter, darker and drab than the normal world, a roar of monsters is coming from this door. There are also some warm lights that appear abnormal and abrupt in the constant darkness.

Lan En, who rushed up quickly, had no intention of slowing down. He pushed his shoulder armor forward and aimed at the pillar at the door.

In the quiet darkness, there was a sudden "boom"!

The wooden door of the village chief's house was blown away like a piece of paper in front of [Smaug]'s strength and Lan En's strength!

But because of this, Lan En was able to complete the turn without losing speed and face the depths of the village chief's house and the temple!

Compared with the ordinary houses in Shisanying Village, the orderliness and luxury here are visible to the naked eye.

But there is nothing to criticize. After all, this is not only the residence of the village chief, but also a Shinto religious site that has been worshiped by the village for generations.

Not to mention that in this world, religion is indeed obviously useful and a practical product.

At this time, on the ground in front of the house, a man wearing a high hat of a Shinto priest had fallen to the sky.

Two hungry ghosts surrounded his body and dug into his belly, in the deepest part of the house.

The sudden and conspicuous warm light in the constant darkness came from here.

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

There was a small shrine that was as tall as one person, and the village chief whom Lan En knew was holding a royal coin (a magical instrument tied with a paper pendant to a wooden stick) and reciting Shinto blessings loudly.

The feet and body also dance rhythmically.

The basic theory of Shintoism is animism, and the village chief's blessing is obviously passed down from his family of priests, and is specifically a blessing for the sacred cherry tree in the backyard.

This will effectively bring over the divine power of the Sakura Sacred Tree.

The steps under his feet are part of the Shinto ritual, the so-called [Kagura].

Through the cooperation of shrines and rituals, he was able to hold up such a small round area of ​​warm light in the constant darkness.

Several of his family members, probably grandchildren, were hiding around the shrine.

There was a big hole in the roof of the house. Something jumped from a high place on to their roof and broke in directly.

And that thing is now outside the circle of warm light, grinning and hopping towards it.

It was an extremely violent ape ghost.

Its size was very different from what Lan En had seen before, but through [Spiritual Vision], Lan En could see a stronger demonic aura on it.

The illusory flowers of the other shore bloomed lushly at its feet, and then quickly withered.

It is the core of this everlasting darkness!

At this moment, it was holding a spear it got from nowhere, and it was swinging wildly towards the warm aperture.

Every time it is hit, the aperture will tremble obviously.

But even if it doesn't smash, the brightness of the aperture is slowly decreasing.

The village chief's heavy priest costume was soaked through, and he was so exhausted that he turned pale and lost consciousness.

But he still could only insist on performing [Kagura] and congratulations.

This warm light circle draws in the power of the Sakura Sacred Tree, but it is always dark here after all. Even a warrior who has been tempered for thousands of times may die of exhaustion in this environment that is almost like the underworld.

What's more, there was a ghost ape in front of him, drooling and looking at him and his grandson.

How can an old priest like him stop him?

Take Lan En’s analysis of the change in brightness of the warm aperture at the moment it catches the eye.

Even if the village chief didn't die of exhaustion while dancing [Kagura] and reciting the congratulations, this aperture would definitely be the limit for another fifteen minutes.

Does this mean that the Sakura Sacred Tree is also under attack and is about to die?

Lan En didn't have time to think about it so much. The huge movement that flew off the door frame instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the yard, including the ape ghost.

The ape ghost, who had been drooling and greedy for a long time in the circle of light, turned around and saw such a big living person outside, he subconsciously bared his teeth and let out a happy ape cry.

But the next moment.

"bass!"

The ape ghost's face was stiff, and a tall figure with a violent aura almost stood in front of it!

After this sharp sound that shook the air, the sound of the house's wooden floor being trampled to pieces followed.

The monkey ghost was hunched over from tapping the aperture, and was now a head shorter than Lan En of the same size.

And now, it stared up blankly at the terrifying guy who suddenly appeared in front of it!

One second the person was still far away, and the next second the horror appeared directly in front of his eyes, so frightened that the monkey ghost's little happiness disappeared without a trace in an instant!

It even let out a high-pitched ape scream, trying to jump back and distance itself.

But even if it didn't close to this distance, it wouldn't be able to escape from Lan En.

What's more, it's already on your face now?

"Click."

The leaf spring of the scabbard opens crisply.

Immediately, two sounds of pulling the air out of the rapid white line sounded!

"呲呲!"

[Water-Shaped Sword·Cross Slash]!

Different from the [Cross Slash] performed by A Xiu with two swords, this is a technique that can be done with one sword!

Two straight, perfect, thin and sharp lines cross each other.

A single horn cut across the head of the monkey ghost with golden light.

The crystal ghost horn was neatly cut into pieces.

The second knife cuts vertically!

Together with the spear that had been assimilated by the demonic energy for a long time, the ape ghost was evenly divided into two pieces.
