Chapter 815: Chapter 639: The Task from Many Years Ago_2
Slowly, even if unwilling, Higurashi Gushan could only bow his head, because the power that originally belonged to him was no longer under his control.
“This is indeed a genius idea, sealing the power within the weapon.” Nekomata sneered.
“Have you forgotten the contract you made with back then?”
“Accepting my power is equivalent to accepting all the destiny I have arranged for you.”
“Your soul is the weight placed on the scale.”
“And they all belong to !”
Higurashi Gushan let out a cry of pain, a pain not from the body, but from the complete enslavent of the soul.
The spiritual light in his eyes was gradually erased, the blood-red power shattered the surrounding ice, and his emaciated body was buried within the ice cave.
Not long after, a violent explosion was heard, the collapsed ice layers were breached, and a figure leapt into the air.
A pale face, a vacant expression, and eyes devoid of any emotional fluctuations.
At this mont, Higurashi Gushan had been completely stripped of the spirituality a human should have, turned into a puppet and a machine.
“Good, very good!”
Nekomata displayed a satisfied smile.
“Find this person and kill him!”
Information was transmitted, and within Higurashi Gushan’s consciousness appeared the image of Roger.
For a Transcendent of Nekomata’s level, identifying soone was beyond re appearance and physique.
What mattered more was the aura of power.
“Right, there’s one more thing.” Nekomata seed to rember sothing, “Complete your unfinished task, find that escapee.”
“That cunning guy!”
At this mont, the passage in front of Nekomata was slowly closing, and just as she withdrew her gaze, a figure from afar intruded into her view.
“Is it you?!”
Nekomata glared fiercely, looking at the just-arrived Roger.
“It’s him, kill him!”
“Kill him for !”
At the mont the passage closed, Nekomata gave Higurashi Gushan the order.
Sizzle!
The passage completely closed, and sweeping over with his gaze, Roger noticed Higurashi Gushan floating in mid-air.
“Still a step too late.”
Roger was just about to probe Higurashi Gushan’s reaction, but the next mont a cold gleam flashed.
Swoosh!
Followed imdiately by a thunderous roar.
In the place where he had just stood, two intersecting blade marks appeared, the ice shattered, and Higurashi Gushan held blades in both hands, slightly turning to look at Roger who had dodged his attack.
“So fast?”
Roger’s heart skipped a beat, knowing that Higurashi Gushan was on the sa level as the Sword Master Cold Crow, an Extre Path Sword Master.
Back when faced with the aggressive Master of Kurokawa, Higurashi Gushan easily forced him back, and many years ago he might have also once crossed swords with Sword Master Cold Crow.
Roger thought he had already overestimated the strength of an Extre Path Sword Master, but truly becoming an enemy, Roger realized his previous thoughts were completely wrong.
Having determined his own path, becoming an Extre Path Sword Master, even if his power was not on par with those ordinary Sword Masters who have imrsed for years.
Yet the two are clearly not comparable.
Just a mont ago, as Higurashi Gushan launched his attack, Roger simultaneously released the Alder Sword Seal and exerted influence through the surrounding space.
But he found that the influence of the Alder Sword Seal was minimal, instead, the intense aura of slaughter from Higurashi Gushan’s body caused him to lose composure, his energy beca agitated.
This is Higurashi Gushan’s Way of the Asura, an extrely aggressive attack thod.
“Mr. Higurashi, I’m Roger, a friend of Senka, do you rember ?”
Roger tentatively asked.
But the answer he got was two sharp blades of light, this ti Roger did not retreat, instead choosing to confront actively.
The Sword of Destiny blocked horizontally, in the blink of an eye the two had exchanged more than ten blows.
Being influenced by Nekomata did not an Higurashi Gushan beca a mindless machine; without Roger’s control, the Elder of Shadows attacked entirely based on instinct.
But Higurashi Gushan was much stronger.
Roger quickly felt the pressure.
“Master, let help you!”
Uma’s voice ca from beside his ear, but Roger firmly shook his head; the man in front of him was Senka’s father, who had also helped him before, even with the capability to defeat him, Roger could not bear to strike him down.
He was considering how to neutralize Nekomata’s influence on Higurashi Gushan.
Higurashi Gushan’s combat power already exceeded Roger, one side hesitant, the other could unleash his power without scruples, with the disparity growing, Roger was frequently thrown into crisis within just a few breaths.
At this ti, not to ntion helping Higurashi Gushan break free from control, even Roger himself found it hard to extricate from the opponent’s attacks.
“This isn’t the way, if this continues, you’ll definitely get hurt!”
In addition to his inherent power, Roger now had various thods, if he unrestrainedly exploded, he could absolutely withstand Higurashi Gushan’s attack in a short ti.
But such an approach was aningless in solving the problem, as Roger hesitated, from afar ca two sounds of sothing tearing through the air.
He was shocked, a glance from the corner of his eyes caught Higurashi Senka and Yuan Guanghai.
“Don’t co over!” Roger shouted anxiously.
With the energy intensity between him and Higurashi Gushan at this mont, even being swept by the aftershocks of the attack was not sothing Yuan Guanghai and the two could withstand.
At this mont, Higurashi Gushan’s actions paused slightly, in the next mont his attacks beca even more frenzied!
“Leave here!”
Roger shouted loudly.
Higurashi Senka was about to move forward, but was grabbed by Yuan Guanghai, then a red blade flash swept past, Roger blocked it just in ti but still a small portion of power scattered out, directly towards Yuan Guanghai and the two.
Yuan Guanghai stepped on the ground, the Broad Sword in his hand stood up, but even the scattered power was not sothing he could withstand now.
With a muffled groan, his face turned pale, but he still barely maintained his figure’s stability, because behind him was the emotionally fluctuating Higurashi Senka.
“Retreat!”
Roger’s voice ca again.
“Return to the Tower of Shadows!”
Yuan Guanghai no longer hesitated, the Shadow’s Power enveloping the two flickered, monts later, their bodies vanished from the original spot.
Under Higurashi Gushan’s constant pressure, Roger felt his understanding of the Alder Sword Seal soar rapidly, but at this mont Higurashi Gushan’s state was extrely peculiar, Roger dared not risk his life.
Seizing the opportunity, his figure retreated violently, escaping into the shadows, then vanished in the Land of Eternal Darkness.
Roger’s sudden departure made a hint of confusion appear on Higurashi Gushan’s ice-like face, but he only hesitated briefly, palm pushing flat, a red corridor appeared.
Higurashi Gushan stepped into it, when he appeared again, he had arrived at the Everworld, but at this mont the Everworld seed sowhat unfamiliar.
The surrounding chaos however, was not much different from the Land of Eternal Darkness.
“Unfinished task…”
In Higurashi Gushan’s mind flashed an old face, a na blurted out.
“Sword Master Cold Crow!”
ntioning this na, his body tensed abruptly, even without eting felt like confronting a formidable enemy.
But soon the blood-red glow filled his eyes, he gripped the Twin Blades in his hands, looking towards a distant direction.
At this ti, from the surrounding bushes suddenly erged several sneaky figures, seeing Higurashi Gushan’s lack of reaction, the sound of wind being sliced was heard, a shadow flickered past, pouncing violently!
Sizzle!
He didn’t even need to raise his blade, the red glow surrounding Higurashi Gushan’s body flashed, and the pouncing shadow was sliced into several pieces, before they hit the ground, the flickering red glow greedily drained the Essence Blood from them!
While in the Everworld, Higurashi Gushan’s state was completely different from that in the Land of Eternal Darkness.
He seed to beco even more aggressive.
The red glow faintly ford a greedy ghostly face.
anwhile, on the picturesque Qinglu Mountain, an unexpected guest descended from the sky.
No formalities of a visit, no equal communication, it was pure tyrannical oppression!
“From today onwards, the Funiu Sword Pavilion need not exist!”
