[Moon Breathing]
"Hiss——!"
Tsugikuni Michikatsu hung the sword by his side, he took a slight breath, the cold ice crystals inhaled into his lungs, but had no effect.
[Eighth Form]
[Moon Dragon Ringtail---Getsuryu Rinbi]
His arms were tense, both arms holding the hilt.
The extended sword condensed with cold light, Tsugikuni Michikatsu stood at the broken entrance of the corridor, his eyes staring dead at Doma above the Lily Bodhisattva.
He pulled up his upper body with force, and suddenly the moonlight condensed on the sword, with great momentum.
Swing out!
Whoosh!
The sword tip dragged the moonlight, a large arc of moonlight cast a shadow, instantly covering the entire temple sky!
The moon arc sword light left the sword, and went straight to the Lily Bodhisattva!
Doma, who was observing this side, suddenly shrank his pupils.
"Kokushibo-dono!"
Doma quickly jumped into the air with a point under his feet.
Hiss!
Looking at the Lily Bodhisattva below that was split in half by the moon arc, he was surprised to look in the direction of Tsugikuni Michikatsu:
"You are still alive too!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Hakuji spotted the gap and suddenly rushed into the air, and two Air Type strikes went straight to Doma!
Doma twisted his body in mid-air, easily avoiding Hakuji's attack.
Boom...
Countless large ice blocks of the Lily Bodhisattva kept falling into the water.
The largest Bodhisattva's head fell with a bang, stirring up a wave, slowly sinking to the bottom of the water, only revealing a section of the top.
Plop.
Doma moved flexibly and distanced himself from Hakuji, his feet closed together, standing vertically on the tip of the ice block that emerged from the water.
His eyes were slightly surprised:
"you two..really surprised me,"
Suddenly.
Whoosh!
Tsugikuni Michikatsu in the distance turned into an afterimage and disappeared!
Plop.
His figure suddenly appeared next to Doma, the sword he held up was about to chop down heavily the next moment!
Doma's eyes seemed unable to react, still staring straight at the position where Tsugikuni Michikatsu was standing just now.
It's just that his neck subconsciously tilted slightly.
Puchi!
The sound of the sword entering the flesh came from his ear.
He moved his pupils down and looked at his own body.
His left arm was directly cut off by the sharp sword!
In his ear.
"I..."
Tsugikuni Michikatsu tilted his head slightly, almost standing with Doma, his tone was heavy, and he exhaled white mist in the cold environment:
"Never died..."
...
...
...
In the ruins.
tap tap tap.....
A figure is shuttling between the falling giant ice.
"Two more demons have appeared..."
"Think, don't stop thinking, Uzui."
Uzui Tengen's eyes were serious, he was running while looking at the two demons that suddenly appeared not far away, constantly talking to himself:
"The target is only their heads."
As he spoke, white mist kept coming out of his mouth.
His tone is not as calm as usual.
After all, a twenty-meter-high Lily Bodhisattva suddenly appeared and was suddenly shattered.
In this era where buildings are generally two stories high, only Tokyo and other prosperous areas will have a large number of buildings above three stories.
Witnessing such a huge object at close range brings too much shock.
Swish!
The body leaned forward and quickly passed over the roof that was exposed to the water surface.
Suddenly.
Uzui Tengen's pupils shrank.
"What..."
The corner of his eye swept across, and Uzui Tengen, who was moving quickly to find opportunities, seemed to see something.
His pupils quickly glanced with his own movement, and he stomped on the roof under his feet.
Creak——!
Stop the trend of advancing, twist the running body.
He turned his head, his eyes widened, and he looked at the already flooded courtyard water surface on the side, and shouted in surprise:
"Kamado!"
His voice echoed on the water surface.
Frost condensed under the eaves.
On the water surface.
Huala...
Ripples gently blow.
Tanjuro floated in the misty cold water, his eyes closed, and the skin touching the water surface was covered with white frost.
His eyelids were trembling slightly.
It seems to be experiencing something.
...
...
Hua——!
The fog swept around.
In the vast white space.
"Where is this..."
Tanjuro slowly opened his eyes in the wind that swept the cherry blossom mist.
He was puzzled and regained his senses, and subconsciously looked at the Sakura petals floating in front of him.
He reached out his hand and left the petals in his palm.
His fingertips gently twisted the glowing petals, and a familiar feeling couldn't help but surge up.
——Sakura, mist, the smell of decay...
He was stunned for a moment.
In his mind, the information of the five senses instantly made him think of something he had come into contact with.
——Sakura Dragon!
Tanjuro reacted suddenly, he raised his head and looked around.
He glanced left and right, and the huge cherry dragon in the distance directly hit his field of vision.
And.....
That stuck in the bottom of the Sakura dragon's eye.
Dark red sword.
——Undying Slash·Tears of Worship.
As the name suggests, Breath Of the Undying.
For [the sword that cuts off the undead]
In the world of Sekiro, this sword has the ability to completely kill the undead like Tanjuro.
Even Kuro, whose scars will heal instantly, can be injured by the Undying Slash, bleeding and leaving scars.
It is the nemesis of the undead.
Swish!
Tanjuro rushed through the mist and went straight to the vicinity of the sakura dragon.
He stepped on the eyelids of the cherry dragon, bent down, and looked at the Undying Slash inserted at the bottom of the sakura dragon's eyes with a puzzled look.
The sakura dragon is closing its eyes at the moment, motionless.
If it weren't for the still shrinking breath floating around, and the power of resurrection still exists in the body, Tanjuro almost thought it was dead.
He withdrew his gaze and looked at Tears of Worship again.
But——why would this sword appear here?
The Undying Slash named [Tears of Worship] is a ceremonial sword used to take dragon tears.
He clearly remembered that after taking the dragon tears, he left with the Undying Slash...
In the ending of stepping into the dragon's return, he also carried the Undying Slash on his back...
The situation is urgent, Tanjuro can't think so much for a while.
Snap!
He grabbed the hilt of the Undying Slash.
...
...
Outside.
Bang! Snap!
"Well, well."
"Has everyone betrayed?"
Doma was smiling, chatting while waving the fan in his hand, and the fan-shaped ice crystals constantly turned into mist.
"Could it be, I was right...?" Seeing that the two demons on the opposite side did not respond, he shook his head and sighed:
"It's so outrageous~ There is only me and Muzan-sama left."
His figure quickly retreated in the water, his tone was frivolous:
"Muzan-sama must be very sad."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Hakuji pursued relentlessly.
Seeing this.
Plop.
"Don't you two think we are very pitiful?"
Doma stomped on the roof behind him, his body kept vertical, his hands crossed, and his eyes met with the rushing Hakuji.
"Pitiful?!" Hakuji's expression was ferocious, he took the opportunity to get close, and swung a punch straight at Doma, and exhaled fragrance:
"You beast-like bastard, is your brain filled with water?!"
"Eh, that's too much~" Doma smiled and tilted his head, looking like he narrowly dodged the attack:
"Blood Demon Art·Crystalline Divine Child."
The fan in his hand waved vigorously.
Whoosh!
As the ice crystals in mid-air condensed and enlarged, a half-human-high ice sculpture quickly formed.
And slowly, it turned into the same shape as Doma.
"This kids have the ability to release Blood Demon Art of the same strength as me..."
"Well." Doma jumped back a few steps, carrying his own crystalline imperial child, he casually made four more:
"You two should know, so I don't need to say more."
He slowly opened his smiling eyes and became expressionless:
"Since you two don't want to reminisce, I don't want to make Muzan-sama angry anymore."
Snap! Doma closed the fan, and the colorful pupils reflected the ice-blue scene in front of him.
"Let's end it quickly."
Five ice crystal imperial children surrounded the surroundings, forming a circle.
Doma gently opened his mouth:
"Rime——Water Lily Bodhisattva."
The next moment.
Rumble——!!
Five huge objects formed by the condensation of ice blocks suddenly rose from the ground.
A huge shadow enveloped the entire temple from all around.
