Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#531 - Phantom sea?

Compared to the , religious traditions such as Taoism and Buddhism have a long history and have always occupied an important position in the long development of China, and have also had an important influence on the character shaping of people on this land.

The Beggar Clan and Tang Clan are relatively pure Jianghu sects, although they also occupy a pivotal position in the Otherworld and among some ordinary people.

In their respective fields of expertise, they also have a weight no less than the former.

However, when it comes to the influence on Chinese civilization and secular culture, these Jianghu factions cannot catch up with the religious traditions, no matter how hard they try.

After all, people only ever talk about how a certain immortal, Taoist lord, patriarch, or Buddha is in the upper realm, and what position and glory they hold.

But rarely do people talk about what kind of status and respect a hegemon among beggars, or a top figure in hidden weapons and poison arts, has in the immortal realm.

At most, it is only limited to their own sect.

In this case, if you want to use promotion methods such as Divine Striking Technique, and ask for help from higher-level people to seek protection, you can naturally forget about it.

Even if there are really some people outside of religious sects who accidentally learn this kind of technique, and then reluctantly, riskily cast it.

But in the case where there is no one at the top of their own sect, they will inevitably attract the descent of some evil gods.

At that time, even the caster's own body may be occupied, creating a situation where it is easy to invite a god but difficult to send it away~

A little carelessness may lead to endless harm!

As for the Shamanic Immortal lineage, which is mainly active in Northeast China, it is quite special in this regard.

In Liang Yue's view, the method in this sect of using alien intelligent creatures to assist in combat and increase combat power is actually quite unique.

It can barely be regarded as an alien version of the Divine Striking Technique, from the beginning of cultivation, the body has been lent to a certain fixed demon spirit.

In this case, if you were to cast some kind of Divine Striking Technique again, let alone use it to fight against the enemy, it would be good if the two existences didn't start fighting on the spot~

Therefore, aside from Buddhism and Taoism, even if those other types of sects know that they have now encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It can be said that the timing, location, and people are all right~

But at this time, they can only stare blankly from the sidelines, and besides envy, it is just adding to their troubles.

… …

“This time~! The seventh match of the China-Japan Exchange Tournament! The Chinese side is represented by~ Dark One! The Japanese side is represented by~ Sword Two!”

Soon, another exchange tournament arrived as scheduled.

On the Chinese side, the so-called Dark One naturally refers to the Tang Clan.

There was once a saying in the Otherworld, rather meet Yama, than provoke a Tang Clan member~

It is said that this sect's inheritance has terrifying hidden weapon skills and poison techniques!

Any Otherworlder, once they confront this group, they must be very careful and cautious!

Otherwise, a little carelessness may directly lead to their death, or even not know how they died.

And the Sword Two on the Japanese side refers to the second-ranked swordsman among all the Japanese contestants!

Those who can be personally selected by the Japanese Emperor must be strong.

However, as a swordsman who mainly focuses on offense, he happened to encounter a direct disciple of the Tang Clan's head, and I don't know whether to say he is lucky or extremely unlucky.

At least in the eyes of Liang Yue and others, this Sword Two should be the one who is just restrained!

Thus~ So~

The final result of the match was just as everyone expected… …

Although this swordsman from Japan was indeed not weak, his way of using the sword was a bit like the male protagonist in Rurouni Kenshin, and he himself was quite handsome.

Various swift movements, positioning, rotations, jumps, sharp and swift sword techniques, and occasionally he could split out a few sharp sword energies from the katana in his hand.

But he didn't do enough in terms of defense.

Knowing that he was fighting against someone from the Tang Clan, he never used true energy to protect his body, or used sword energy and various defensive techniques to protect himself from beginning to end.

So, with this kind of fighting style, the ending was actually doomed from the beginning~

In this match, the battle between the two sides lasted only less than half a minute, and this Sword Two contestant from Japan directly succumbed to the poison on the spot and collapsed to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Tang Xiaosan of the Tang Clan pierced his brow with a flying needle… …

… …

“The eighth match of this exchange tournament! The Chinese side is represented by~ Tao Three! The Japanese side is represented by~ Ghost One!”

This battle still had no surprises~

Because that Tao Three refers to the inheritance of Wudang Mountain!

Although compared to other Taoist sects, the history of Wudang's establishment and rise seems a bit short, no one has ever doubted the strength of this lineage!

However, compared to his unusually active luck attribute, Liang Yue was actually more interested in this Spirit One on the Japanese side at this time.

To be precise, he was interested in a shining ball of light in the opponent's body.

At this time, Liang Yue's opponent was a young and beautiful woman.

She had an amazing appearance, a slightly short figure, but a perfect proportion, and her pink curly hair was simply combed into a ponytail and tied behind her head.

More importantly, the other party's eyes were very determined, and her whole temperament seemed particularly delicate and otherworldly.

“What's your name?”

After taking the stage, Liang Yue didn't rush to take action this time, but directly asked the other party's name.

“I am, Genkai.”

The other party was obviously stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously replied.

“… … Sigh, do you want to die or do you want to live?”

Hearing the words of the woman on the opposite side, Liang Yue immediately raised his eyebrows, feeling surprised by this answer.

And in this instant, he associated a lot from the other party's name.

“You are too arrogant!”

At this time, Master Genkai, who was in her prime, immediately raised her eyebrows, looking a little angry.

“To be honest, I am very interested in the… spirit light ball in your body, so I want to give you another choice, if you can~”

Liang Yue smacked his lips at this time, subconsciously considering his tone.

“Don't even think about it!”

However, Genkai on the opposite side did not give him this opportunity.

Although she was a little surprised that he would know about the existence of the spirit light ball, this woman was obviously unwilling to accept any charity, let alone choose to submit.

After a delicate shout, she clenched her fists and took the initiative to rush towards him!
