The demon monk in the second dimension

"Now that we have guns, we should also get bayonets. Bayonets take less damage to the Kabane's cardiac lining than black knives."

"Moreover, when dealing with Kabane, who require a piercing through the heart to be killed, stabbing is much more effective than slashing."

Slurp slurp slurp!

Another spark flew as Xia Zhi pulled the black knife that had been embedded in the heart of the Kabane.

He raised his gun in his left hand and, with a bang, knocked away a Kabane that leaped high from the ground, ready to pounce on him.

The Kabane's heart was pierced, it lost its strength in the sky, its dreams were gone, and it collapsed halfway through its journey.

"Woo!"

When the carcass of this Kabane fell, it knocked over two other Kabane.

Xia Zhi quickly stepped forward and finished off the two Kabane who had fallen to the ground with a single slash.

Before the other Kabane arrived, Xia Zhi planted the black knife in the ground and quickly took out bullets from the pouch at her waist to load them.

After he finished reloading the bullets in his Vulcan rifle, a new batch of seven Kabane appeared, the closest of which was less than five meters away from him.

Bang bang bang!

Xia Zhi raised the Vulcan and fired three shots, but instead of the first three Kabane, he hit the second, fourth, and fifth Kabane.

He picked up the black knife stuck in the ground, took a step to the right, and dodged the Kabane's attack.

At such close range, Xia Zhi could clearly smell the rusty scent on the Kabane.

The next moment, he turned around and thrust his arm forcefully, plunging the black knife into the heart of the Kabane from its back.

At that moment, the third Cabane charged forward.

Xia Zhi released the black knife in his right hand, gripped the Vulcan Gun with both hands, and pressed it hard against Kabane's chest to prevent his claws from reaching him.

He pushed forward forcefully, and the cabane took two steps back.

Then, bang! bang!

Xia Zhi fired two shots, emptying the bullets in Vulcan's magazine, killing the first Kabane and the sixth Kabane.

Because the fourth and fifth Kabane had already been killed, Xia Zhi put down the Vulcan sword and still had time to pull out the black knife stuck in the first Kabane.

He gripped the knife with both hands, first swiftly severing the last Kabane dog's head, then plunged the black knife into its heart.

In just ten seconds, Xia Zhi, with a knife in one hand and a pistol in the other, cleanly and swiftly took down eleven Kabane with fluid movements.

He demonstrated to the people on the city wall what the ultimate aesthetics of violence truly meant.

Except when falling from the sky, Xia Zhi used only the power that an ordinary samurai could possess throughout the entire process, but it required a high level of agility, skill, and mental fortitude.

But it's not impossible!

Watching Xia Zhi gracefully take down more than ten Kabane, the samurai on the city wall, even Shikagawa Kensho and Madoka Tsuyoshi, couldn't help but feel their blood boil and wished they could take his place!

At this moment, Xia Zhi summoned the White Bone Flying Sword and quickly cleared out the remaining Kabane who had surrounded them.

The gates of Yatsushiro Station were also opened, and samurai pushed carts to collect the corpses from the Kabane.

……

Back in the city, Xia Zhi, Shifangchuan Jianjiang, and Yuansong Gang went to the blacksmith shop together.

He held a Vulcan rifle in his hand, gestured at the muzzle a couple of times, and then drew the shape of a bayonet in the blacksmith's shop.

The dimensions for the Summer Solstice are even specified, so the blacksmith only needs to follow them.

"Compared to slashing, stabbing involves a smaller contact area, making it easier to penetrate the cardiac membrane. That's why the Black Gun was created."

With a black knife in front, the black spear means a long black spear.

The difference between the black spear and the ordinary spear is that the spearhead is made of steel membrane from the heart of the Kabane.

One inch long, one inch strong.

Distance is important when facing the Kabane.

This not only protects you from the bites of the Kabane, but also enhances your psychological sense of security.

Moreover, against the Kabane, a black spear, which specializes in stabbing, is more effective than a samurai sword.

Xia Zhi led the warriors out of the city dozens of times, and under his guidance, many warriors have gained experience in killing Kabane.

Using knives, they would need to engage in a struggle with the Kabane, being careful not to be scratched or bitten at close range.

But with a spear, just aim for the Kabane's heart and stab him hard.

Even if you poke the wrong spot, you can prevent the Kabane from getting closer and then poke it again.

So soon, only a very few samurai who were confident in their martial arts skills were still using black swords, while the other samurai chose black spears as their weapons.

"Although the bayonet is not as long as the black dagger and is also an oddity compared to the black gun, it can be used as a short gun by adding the length of the Vulcan gun, and it also consumes less material than the black dagger."

"Most importantly, the bayonet can be used in conjunction with the Vulcan rifle to reduce the soldiers' load. Moreover, the bayonet is detachable and can also be used as a dagger."

When Xia Zhi said that, Madoka Tsuyoshi and Yoshikazuki Kensho naturally agreed, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, okay, okay."

……

In the sixth month since arriving in this world, Xia Zhi's cultivation has reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, and she is preparing to break through to the Golden Core stage.

In the Heavenly Realm and the small worlds radiated by the Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Realm, cultivators must undergo Heavenly Tribulations to break through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Golden Core stage, from the Golden Core stage to the Nascent Soul stage, and from the Tribulation Transcending stage to the Mahayana stage.

This tribulation is a test for cultivators, but its more important purpose is to kill those cultivators who are not strong enough and who simply waste their spiritual energy after breaking through.

Compared to the Foundation Establishment stage, the Golden Core stage requires a geometric increase in the amount of spiritual energy absorbed and exhaled each day, which is a heavy burden on the Heavenly Dao.

Some might say that undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation allows one to refine oneself using the power of the lightning tribulation, and even to use the lightning tribulation to do all sorts of things.

But the Heavenly Realm is not like that!

The purpose of the Heavenly Tribulation is for the Heavenly Dao to harvest cultivators at a high standard, thereby reducing the number of cultivators!

They desperately want the Heavenly Dao to abolish the Heavenly Tribulation setting, and ideally, even the lifespan limit should be removed.

By the time the summer solstice arrives, there's absolutely no need to worry about heavenly tribulations.

He had been running through the void where space and time were disordered for so long that he had no idea how far he was from the Heavenly Realm. The Heavenly Dao couldn't possibly interfere here.

Otherwise, why would we wait for the heavenly tribulation? The thousands of heavenly punishments that would have cleaved him into ashes would have already followed!

Three months have passed since Xia Zhi last used her divine sense.

This time, he plans to use the power of his primordial spirit and divine sense to break through to the Golden Core stage, and at the same time, advance his natal flying sword to the Nascent Soul stage.

On the summer solstice, the spirit leaves the body and uses the power of divine sense to instantly perceive the surrounding area within a thousand miles.

Just then, he let out a soft "hmm".

More than a hundred miles away from Badaiyi, a large creature was slowly approaching.

It was an extremely special Kabane fusion group, composed of tens of thousands of densely packed Kabane, capable of killing people with trypophobia on the spot.

It looks like a headless ape with only four limbs, its hands and legs are exceptionally long, and its height even exceeds the city walls of Yicheng.

One can imagine that if this thing appeared outside the Eighth Generation Post Station, hundreds of Kabane would fly over the city wall and into the city with just a flick of the wrist.

"At this rate, it should reach Yatsushiro Station in about three days. In the original timeline, Yatsushiro Station was destroyed by this thing."

Xia Zhi looked at the Kabane gift package that had been delivered to her door and smiled happily.

"Is there such a good thing?"

“What an unexpected surprise!”

Grabbing the bewildered Kabane fusion group, Xia Zhi's divine sense carried his physical body across thousands of miles to discover a destroyed, unknown post town filled with Kabane.

With a thought, he sent the white bone flying sword into the air.

The black blade gleamed under the sunlight, and the crimson sword patterns pulsed like flames!

Xia Zhi used magic to gather the Kabane within a hundred miles of this post city, along with the fused group in his hands, to forge a sword.

This place is not under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Realm. Not to mention cultivators, even magic treasures do not need to undergo tribulation!

Naturally, when the Kabane fusion group was completely submerged in the flying sword, the white bone flying sword suddenly trembled and emitted a clear sound that resounded throughout the heavens and earth!

A dazzling crimson light emanated from its vein-like crimson patterns. Being bathed in this light felt like falling into the deepest hell of slaughter, stirring up demonic thoughts and igniting a surge of murderous intent!

This is a demonic sword forged from the flesh and soul of the Kabane!

The Lord kills!

The Lord is bloodthirsty!

The moment it advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, the White Bone Flying Sword withdrew its demonic light.

It flew happily to Xia Zhi's side, circling around her like a puppy chasing its owner.

Xia Zhi waved his hand, and the flying sword obediently stopped in front of him.

"A natal flying sword in the Nascent Soul stage will develop a little spirituality, until it reaches the Spirit Transformation stage when its spirituality is fully developed and it can protect its master on its own."

Xia Zhi gently stroked the white bone flying sword and named it.

"Although your sword is black, when fully activated, it emits a dazzling red light. In addition, your predecessor was named [Aurora]... So, let's call you [Crimson Light]."

hum!

Having received its name, the Crimson Light Sword happily emitted another clear ring!

Its blade trembled constantly as it darted about in the sky, as carefree as a child running around having fun.

However, at the time of the summer solstice, the spirit is in a state of leaving the body, and the time is short.

He beckoned again, summoning the Crimson Sword, and continued casting spells, releasing the Kabane into it.

The crimson light trembled continuously during this process, providing an unparalleled pleasure akin to a massage.

In the end, Xia Zhi deliberately kept over a thousand Kabane souls by her side.

His primordial spirit returned to his physical body, and with an unwavering will, he ignored the increasingly severe headaches and began to circulate the Soul Devouring Technique.

The crimson light rested quietly on Xia Zhi's legs as she sat cross-legged.

"Breathe~breathe~breathe~"

Eight hundred years of demonic cultivation, longer than Sun Wukong's prison sentence!

Such a long period of time for an individual has already etched the Soul Devouring Technique into Xia Zhi's soul.

With his rhythmic breathing, one by one, the souls of the Kabane, like fledglings returning to their nests, flew into the mouth of the Summer Solstice.

Under the transformation of the Soul Devouring Technique, the souls of these Kabane beings quickly transformed into the most basic magical power, filling Xia Zhi's dantian.

At this moment, the source of magical power in Xia Zhi's dantian has expanded more than five times compared to when he first established his foundation.

The mana spring that was originally constantly outputting mana has now reversed course and begun to absorb a large amount of mana from the dantian!

The magical spring, with the force of a whale swallowing its prey, caused the surrounding magical energy to surge into it like a flood bursting its banks.

On one side, the magic spring was frantically absorbing magic power, while on the other side, Xia Zhi was continuously channeling it into her dantian.

After the souls of more than three hundred Kabane were devoured by Xia Zhi, the mana spring seemed unable to absorb any more mana and suddenly collapsed!

boom!

A sound that was barely perceptible to the outside world, but resounded like a great bell in Xia Zhi's mind, a sound that shook the heavens and the earth.

Within his dantian, the spring of magical power collapsed and shrank inward, its volume rapidly decreasing.

It is like a stubborn rock that has been compressed and transformed at the spiritual level.

At the same time, this also means that the first step of breaking through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Golden Core stage has been achieved.

However, Xia Zhi did not stop the operation of the Soul Devouring Technique; in fact, it seemed to be accelerating.

Waves of magical power surged into his dantian, like ocean waves, washing over the stubborn rocks formed from the spring of magical power again and again.

"Let's take him down! Let's take him down!"
