Report

The night was the domain of ghosts.

The evil ghosts who hid in the mountains during the day came out of their hiding places when the night came. They wandered in the mountains, looking for blood to fill their stomachs.

Ghosts mainly ate humans.

But it didn't mean that they could only eat humans. Basically, as long as there was food, ghosts could eat it. However, for ghosts, the human body had an irresistible attraction to them. What's more, eating humans could make them stronger. Therefore, they would wholeheartedly look for humans that they could eat.

However, the ghosts who were locked up in Mount Fuji rarely had the chance to see humans.

The final selection for the reserve swordsmen of the Ghost Killer Team was held every half a year. In other words, only about 20 people would come to Mount Fuji every half a year.

This caused the ghosts who had been hungry for half a year to become abnormally crazy when they saw the reserve swordsmen entering the mountain.

The swordsmen didn't need to look for them. They would take the initiative to run out of the dark and try to eat these swordsmen.

Mount Fuji.

Half a day passed quickly. The sun fell below the western mountains. The sunlight disappeared from the earth, and the night gradually came.

"Hey, Ryuga Jann, let's find a place to hide quickly …"

My wife, Shanyi, followed Ryuga step by step. She looked around timidly, afraid that a ghost would rush out and eat her. She suggested to Ryuga in a trembling voice.

"If you want to hide, you can hide by yourself."

Ryuga replied indifferently, "Maybe you plan to live as the first priority, but I still have things I plan to do. Don't criticize me."

Ryuga was not a person who didn't know how to be polite. In necessary circumstances, or in the face of a strong person who was much stronger than him, his tone would be quite polite.

But that was only because he didn't want to cause trouble, or to avoid his life being threatened.

Ryuga had never been polite to others when it was not necessary.

Especially when he was planning to scheme for benefits, but the other party's request conflicted with his own purpose.

It could be said that he bullied the weak and feared the strong. It could also be said that he was unreasonable. But in his heart, there was no concept of humiliation. Naturally, he would not care about what others said.

It had nothing to do with him whether he was mocked or admired by others.

In this world, most people only lived in their own world.

Shan Yi wanted to hide, but he was more afraid of being found by ghosts when he was hiding. It would be safer to stay by Ryuga's side. At least he had seen Ryuga's strength with his own eyes and knew that he was much stronger than ordinary ghosts.

According to the official statement of the Ghost Killer Team, all the ghosts locked up in Mount Fuji were weak ghosts that had eaten two or three people. There was not even a mutated ghost. With Ryuga's strength, she could do whatever she wanted here.

In order to save his life, Shan Yi quickly shut his mouth and silently followed behind Ryuga.

"Give me your Sun Chakra Blade. Take my blade."

"Oh."

Shan Yi obediently handed over his sun-chakra blade and took the two blades from Ryuga's waist.

Ryuga took the sun-chakra blade and continued to look for ghosts in the forest.

The reason why she gave her two blades to Shan Yi was to calm him down. She did not want him to think that Ryuga would not care about her after getting her blades and run away.

His two blades were made with modern technology and were forged with the hardest aluminum alloy. Although it did not contain the power of the sun that could kill evil ghosts, in terms of hardness, it was probably much stronger than the sun-chakra blade.

"Human! It's a human! I smell the fragrance of a human! Hahahaha …! This is my prey! "

Mount Teng Xi was indeed a place to imprison ghosts. Although there weren't many ghosts here, there were still quite a few of them.

Ryuga and Shan Yi swaggered in the forest without any concealment. Soon, a ghost ran out from the tree hole that it was hiding in and rushed towards Ryuga and Shan Yi with green eyes.

"Huuu —"

She didn't even need to activate her Future Vision. Liu Xia took in a deep breath in that instant, causing a large amount of oxygen to surge into her blood. Her entire body instantly felt 'frightened', and her muscles tensed up abruptly.

Ryuga gathered all the energy from his breathing into his right foot. After the energy was accumulated, his right foot suddenly stomped on the ground.

"Boom!"

There was a faint sound of thunder in the air, but it was caught by Shan Yi who had extremely strong hearing.

"Clang —"

A lightning-like saber light flashed through the air.

The evil spirit that was pouncing on the two of them had been decapitated at some point in time. In just two to three seconds, it had turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace.

Ryuga took a deep breath and frowned.

Then, he frowned slightly. He felt an extremely obvious pain on his body, especially on his right foot.

"Liu … Ryuga Jann, you … you just used …"

Shan Yi's eyes widened. He seemed to have seen something from Ryuga's blade. He raised a finger and pointed at Ryuga. He felt his whole body trembling.

"The breathing technique and sword skill you taught me last night. What's wrong?"

Ryuga came back to his senses and looked at Shan Yi indifferently.

"You … you just practiced for a little while last night and … you learned it?"

Shan Yi's eyes were dull, as if he saw a ghost in front of him. He showed a frightened expression.

"How is that possible?"

Ryuga returned the sunblade in his hand to the scabbard and answered indifferently: "I practiced last night. I barely learned it when I didn't sleep at all."

Shan Yi was silent.

Was there a big difference between the two?

Spending less than an hour and spending an entire night to learn [Breath of Thunder] and the sword skill that came with it, for someone like him who had spent two years to learn it by chance, there was no difference at all.

It turned out that there was such a monstrous genius in this world.

Ryuga didn't care about Shan Yi's thoughts. He moved his right ankle, trying to expel some pain from his body.

After all, he had only learned the [Breath of Thunder] for one night. Even though he had tried to focus all his strength on his right foot, his control was still not precise enough. There was still a bit of strength that he didn't control well enough and injured his ankle.

But it was not a big problem. This kind of small injury could be recovered with a little rest.

The physical ability of the [Servant] could never be regarded as a normal person. Even if their heart was pierced, they could still continue to move. There was no shortage of heroes on the Seat of Heroes. Of course, there were many like him.

The problem was the sword skill just now.

He didn't use it skillfully.

It was a sword skill named [Thunder Breath — First Form — Thunderbolt Flash]. It was the first move of the six major sword skills of the [Thunder Breath]. It was a sword skill that focused one's strength on one's leg before exploding in one breath. It was like a thunderclap that tore through the air. After approaching the opponent at high speed, it was a sword skill that even ghosts couldn't see clearly.

The characteristic was that the speed was very fast, so fast that even ghosts couldn't see it clearly.

"My wife, Shan Yi, in that sword, I felt a little power leak and hurt my ankle. What's going on?"

There was no reason for Liuxia not to make use of a tool by her side.

Thinking so, he asked all the questions about [Breathing] and sword skills in one breath.

Shan Yi woke up from his thoughts and answered Liu Xia's question obediently.
