A person in Japan, a sword that soars to immortality.

Sakura Dragon's original form in the Immortal Realm has fallen silent, but the rice maiden on the battlefield of Fushimi in Kyoto has already taken over half of her primordial spirit.

"Good boy, faster, faster!"

Despite being a combination of mental power and spiritual energy, Mi Niang's face was still covered with stripes resembling shattered porcelain.

This body is still too inadequate; it can only hold half of the Sakura Dragon's primordial spirit.

Of course, the sword heart below can only reach this level. It is estimated that only that high-level life form with a physical body that suddenly appeared and reached the Great Perfection of Yang can bear all her primordial spirit.

What puzzled Yinglong was that the high-level life form only appeared once and then disappeared without a trace. It seemed that the threats to cause her trouble were just empty words.

To this end, Yinglong activated almost all of her spiritual vessels in the outside world to search for news of that high-level life, but they really seemed to have vanished in an instant, and she found nothing.

"There's nothing better, at least not here."

Struggling to maintain the fragile body of Mi Niang, and watching Kenshin below, who was now like a madman, turning into a ball of red light and constantly charging left and right, reaping countless lives, Sakura Dragon felt increasingly excited.

It's almost done, we're about to succeed.

A thousand years of waiting, a thousand years of planning, can now come to a temporary end.

Once Kenshin has transformed through this war to the point where he can support half of her primordial spirit, she will take over Kenshin's body.

The remaining task is to stabilize the situation for a while, then bring back Muzan's remains left in the human world, and finally work together to break the seal of the Heavenly Rock Cave, using a substitution method to graft Muzan's soul onto the Evergreen Cherry Tree.

"It's a pity there wasn't enough time. Otherwise, with such a fine body, I really wanted to cultivate for another thousand years or so, and finally ascend to heaven in a state where my spirit and body coexist!"

At this moment, Kenshin was no longer a person in her eyes, but a work she was most proud of.

The most perfect state of ascension is when the physical body and the primordial spirit ascend together; the slightly less ideal state is when the primordial spirit undergoes a yin-yang transformation and ascends.

As for that being whose physical body has reached its full potential, ha, it would be a miracle if it could ascend.

The physical body is the boat, while the primordial spirit is the helmsman.

Having a ship but no helmsman makes it impossible to successfully ascend to heaven.

"My dear Kenshin, keep your rampage going!"

Enveloped in pink light, with its eyes wide open and its expression gradually turning ferocious, Sakura Dragon looked at Kenshin with a sinister smile and said.

On the battlefield, Kenshin has now entered a state of unparalleled power.

The person seemed to have become somewhat numb, and their actions were now controlled by their subconscious.

Wherever there are living people, there is the glint of his sword.

Severed limbs, blood mist, and shredded flesh.

Soldiers from both sides were either torn apart by sword energy or smashed to pieces by brute force.

Because he killed so quickly, the life force harvested from the soldiers gradually transformed into a blood-red dragon above Kenshin's head.

The Supreme Heavenly Dragon Bridge Scripture uses the power of life to condense the blood and qi into a dragon, and then uses the dragon as a bridge to directly ascend to the pinnacle of life.

It was with the help of this scripture that Sakura Dragon absorbed the life force of all creatures in the entire Ashina Kingdom, and even the northeastern region of Sakura, to fully recover from the injuries to his primordial spirit.

The number of soldiers on the battlefield dwindled, but not a single one fled.

Because everyone's eyes were now bloodshot, and they were killing each other as if they had gone mad, until the enemy on the other side fell. But even so, they would immediately change targets and repeat the killing.

Everyone has gone mad; only death can bring them to a stop.

Why did this happen? Of course, it was all arranged by Sakura Dragon.

Long before the war began, she ordered Tsuchimikado Taian of Kyoto to come to this place and set up a large formation that would make people lose their minds and only know how to kill.

The Yin-Yang Bureau in Kyoto had long been subordinate to Sakura Dragon, and all of them had become followers of the White Serpent Cult.

After all, it can extend one's lifespan and grant incredible divine power; no one would refuse such an offer.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that the cultivators in this tiny place would actually possess such knowledge of formations."

"Once my primordial spirit is united with the primordial spirit, it is not impossible for me to bestow some knowledge of cultivation upon them."

Looking out into the distant dense forest, at Tsuchimikado Taian, who sat solemnly at the center of a complex array of patterns, chanting incessantly, Sakura Dragon nodded with delight.

But perhaps she was too happy today, or perhaps too many people had died.

They failed to notice that among the piles of corpses on the battlefield, several bodies were intact.

Kondo Isami, Hijikata Toshizo, and Okita Souji, among other Shinsengumi swordsmen, were not killed by Kenshin.

Although their bodies were covered in gruesome wounds, you could still hear their faint breathing if you got close.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"All of you, die!"

Roar!

After Kenshin finished his final strike, he immediately spread his arms to the sides, raised his head, and roared at the sky.

The dragon of blood and qi above his head seemed to be drawn by something, and it roared violently before turning into blood mist that burrowed into his body through his seven orifices.

Ah!

As if sensing the pain, Kenshin suddenly flipped his sword hilt and plunged it into the ground, his head bowed and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.

As the blood mist entered, his aura grew stronger, causing the surrounding space to become blurry and viscous.

However, this increase in strength seemed to exceed Kenshin's tolerance. The large bulges that kept appearing under his skin stretched his skin to the point of being almost transparent.

"Kenshin, open your mind, I'm here to help you!"

Upon seeing Kenshin's condition, Sakura Dragon was overjoyed and immediately teleported to his side, releasing his primordial spirit power to help suppress him.

Upon hearing Mi Niang's voice, Kenshin's pained expression seemed to ease slightly.

Trembling, he twisted his stiff neck, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Mi Niang, and Kenshin nodded slightly.

Ok?

Does this mean you're allowing me to?

Kenshin saw Mi Niang, but she was actually a body controlled by Sakura Ryu. Upon seeing this action, he immediately frowned.

Because in that instant, she suddenly felt that Kenshin seemed to have lost his former reverence for her, and instead regarded her as an equal to him.

"Heh, the confusion that comes after a surge in power? The true form is a foolish human."

After a moment's thought, Yinglong guessed that the other party probably felt invincible because of the sudden increase in power.

She had experienced this feeling before, when her cultivation level had greatly increased.

"Just a bored sense of smugness; this might be the last feeling you have left on earth!"

Sakura Dragon sneered, then his expression turned serious.

A bright pink light shone around Mi Niang's body, followed by a gelatinous pink energy that rose from her seven orifices and then slithered into the seven orifices of Jian Xin like a serpent.

"cough!"

Kenshin suddenly let out an even more painful cry, and then his body began to suspend in the air, his limbs seemingly losing all strength, and just hung down casually.

Dark clouds continued to gather in the sky, and thunder roared through the clouds. The ground where the two were standing also began to crack as Yinglong infused his primordial spirit into Jianxin's body, with pebbles floating in the air.

It felt like an eternity, though it was less than a moment.

When the sunlight shone on the earth again, where there had been two people before, only Kenshin's figure remained.

"Hehehe..."

"Hahahahahaha!!!"

"I finally, I finally got it..."

Pink light flashed continuously in Kenshin's eyes. He spread his hands to the sides and began to laugh loudly, looking extremely arrogant and smug.

But just as Sakura Ryu was venting his emotions, Kenshin's female voice suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a mocking voice.

"What did you finally gain inside Lao Tzu's body?"

"Hmm? Speak up!"

Suddenly, Kenshin's body crackled, and then countless golden runes emerged from under his skin, disappearing into the air in an instant.

Kenshin's short stature gradually grew larger until he was nearly two meters tall, until the face that originally belonged to Kenshin disappeared from his face and another face appeared.

"It's...it's you!"

"Yamada Asaemon!"

"Too, one!!!"

The Sakura Dragon's incredulous roar, accompanied by an excited yet fearful tremor, suddenly exploded in Taiichi's mind.
