Chapter 52: The Moon of the Deep World!
by xennovelThe core ability of the 【Heart Eye Spirit Sword】 is not the attached swordsmanship that was shown before, but the extraction of the target’s or one’s own soul to use as a weapon.
Using a soul to cut through souls, it can cause huge damage to soul bodies.
However, if one’s soul is extracted carelessly and damaged, it makes it easy for the opponent to counterattack and inflict serious harm.
Therefore, the best method is to forge a sword of the soul.
But a false Sword of the Soul is fragile and easily broken. Not only does it need to be maintained regularly, but it also requires a large number of souls to be overlaid for use. After each use, new souls must be added to sharpen the blade!
Is a sword such an inconvenient item!?
The true Sword of the Soul is not only resilient in spirit, possessing the characteristic of being indestructible and self-repairing, but it also carries the power of shadow, coming with a blackout effect, perfectly complementing the Great Black Sky Sword Technique.
Even if The Little Hamster does not become the second pet beast, it’s still a good weapon for Little Spider.
It can be described as the biotic version of an external sword sheath—
A true physical cheat mouse!
Salute the birth of a king with celebratory cannons!
When Lu Yu saw Little Spider pull out the Sword of the Soul, which matched his abilities incredibly well, he only felt like he had entered a round where the wind was at his back, leaving only one thought in his heart:
This game is in the bag!
“I’m so stupid… I should never have believed any of the human nonsense,” compared to Lu Yu’s surprise, The Little Hamster, turned into the Sword of the Soul, was completely stunned upon realizing it had been tricked.
Others swear oaths by offering up their hearts and souls only as a formality, but you took it literally!
You say you need me,
Just to use me as a sword to hack away??
Heck no!
Man!
At this moment, The Little Hamster’s resentment was deep enough to devour ten bags of chips without even needing a drink of water.
“Once we get home, I’ll buy you yummy food!”
Lu Yu, too, through telepathy, managed to soothe him somewhat. Wanting the horse to run fast, it has to be fed well; otherwise, it would be bad if it threw a shoe midway.
“Don’t lie to me, I want to buy lots and lots of chips and snacks!” The once forlorn Little Hamster instantly did a face change. Since the incident had already occurred, it was better to gain as much benefit from it as possible.
Such as its most-loved human snacks!
“Okay!”
Lu Yu is not exactly a heartless capitalist, so of course, he nodded and promised, actually he had been prepared to buy expensive high-class pet beast feed, but to his surprise, The Little Hamster didn’t know any better and actively opted for the snacks…
How much could snacks possibly cost?
Still so naive,
I can buy you a whole truckload!
The Little Hamster immediately felt much happier. After all, its soul was durable and capable of self-repair. Usually, it would be toyed with by the Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud and received no compensation; now, if it were to sustain damage, it could be exchanged for a large batch of snacks—totally worth it!
The young one had no idea that it was inadvertently being pummeled by society.
Crunch crunch crunch!
The heart-to-heart communication was but a fleeting moment, Lu Yu, sensing the chewing noises getting closer and surrounded by the soul magnetic field suppressing his spirit and thoughts, instinctively tensed all over.
“Here it comes!”
Just as he could clearly feel the collision of fangs very close, in layers, somewhat annoyingly noisy—although it was strange why the sounds were too clamorous.
But there was no time to care about that!
Lu Yu raised his head, preparing to turn over and give Little Spider space to act; however, the scene in front of him was so perplexing that it made him blurt out a swear word!
Shit!
Because in front of him wasn’t just one sub-body of the Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud, but a whole five of them, and another dozen or so were rapidly approaching, their hungry and greedy emotions pouncing at him like hounds, nearly devouring him completely.ultiply
These creatures, even forsaking the prey at hand, want to eat him first!
As for the reason…
Aside from being a Forbidden Curse mark, what else could it be?
It wasn’t obvious at the start, but the more he came into contact with demonic creatures, the stronger his own scent would grow.
Plans cannot keep up with changes!
Since that’s the case…
“I was intending to lay low…” Lu Yu had an emotional fluctuation for a moment, but he quickly calmed down, his eyes boiling with killing intent: “Since you’ve come to me so eagerly, I’ll gladly take everything!”
Although it was different from the plan, battle situations can change in the blink of an eye, and the enemy is not going to act according to a set routine. As an outstanding pet beast controller, the most important thing is to adapt to circumstances as they arise.
Therefore, Lu Yu didn’t just stand still; he decisively rolled aside, dodging the assault of the five Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud sub-bodies and making them miss.
And before they could react, the world before them was shrouded in darkness!
Not a visual darkness, but a seal that also locked away the soul’s perception!
Great Dark Sky Sword Dance, Third Form—Shadow Screen!
It can temporarily block the enemy’s five senses!
This is the technique that the Nun of the Heavens often uses to make opponents blind together, then activates the Eye of Truth to strike in a lower dimension.
If I make you blind, my own disadvantage of being blind is gone.
The seal was quickly dispersed by the sub-bodies’ spread soul magnetic field, and the vision returned once again!
However, in the instant of regaining the light, what they saw was not Lu Yu, but Little Spider standing in the void.
Silver hair fluttering, the face veiled and cool like a celestial, The Little Hamster, transformed into the Dark Shadow Soul Sword, at the waist, poised like returning the sword into its sheath, gathering all focus!
Like an unrivaled swordsman from ancient legends, silently guarding the land of calamities, waiting for the moment a demon appears to exterminate it!
And at this moment, the demons are weakened—
To slay them would be glorious!
Boom!
Little Spider’s Heart Eye opens, the perspective of the Heart Eye unfolds in an instant, locking onto the five Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud sub-bodies before it in the blink of an eye, draws the sword from the sheath, with a serpent-cutting gesture, steps forward, embraces all convictions, and wields the long sword in its hand.
Hiss hiss hiss!
In that instant, as the blade fell, it swept up endless shadows like a storm, engulfing within twenty meters, the will of the Dark Sky Sword descended, conjuring a shadowy dark moon illusion, devouring all light—
Great Dark Sky Sword Dance, Fifth Form—Moon of the Deep World!
With the sun extinguished, the dark moon also sinks, leading all beings into endless darkness, until destruction!
Crunch crunch crunch crunch!
The five Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud sub-bodies did not have a chance to resist and were consumed by the dark moon!
At this point, they finally realized that within this vast dark moon, there were countless crescent sword qi, each carrying the power to rend soul bodies, all for…
A one-strike kill!
Crunch crunch crunch crunch!
The sharp Soul Sword qi instantly tore apart their limbs they tried to use for blocking and cleaved their bodies in twain. The speed was so fast that they turned into numerous severed bodies suspended in mid-air.
In an instant, they were swallowed by the void fissures!
“Extract materials!”
Lu Yu reacted promptly, the eternal white light descended upon the treasure chest of the void, extracting materials in an instant.
He didn’t have time to check and directly had Little Spider blink near the Rune Iron Net, somersaulted over the net, and returned to the human city.
Boom!
The moment he set foot on the ground, a tornado swept through behind him, causing the iron net to shake violently as if it was going to be uprooted, the clothes rustling in the wind.
Dust and sand scattered across the sky as if an apocalyptic storm had arrived.
Lu Yu turned around to see the culprit of it all, a massive pale arm that could crush high-rise buildings, which now halted in front of the iron net.
Or rather, outside the Starlight Screen.
The huge Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud had come once again to the outskirts of the city, still not proceeding any further because the Star Beast Tower shone once again, with the power of the stars circulating, blocking all distortion and chaos outside the city.
As Lu Yu had predicted—
The Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud dared not enter!
Yet, because of this, the anger of the Soul-capturing Demonic Cloud was boiling, the souls trapped within wailed, sending a tsunami of malice washing over Lu Yu. It seemed to want to twist and distort the consciousness of this daring blasphemer through this method.
An ordinary person might have had a mental breakdown from being directly washed over by this malice.
However, Lu Yu just lifted his head and flashed a wide, white-toothed smile, waving goodbye cheerfully as he said:
“Brother Demon Cloud, you really are too enthusiastic! I’ve taken the local specialties myself, so no need to send them off!”
