Under Yae Sakura's care, Feng Chen's injuries healed quickly. After waking up, he just needed a few more days of rest before he was fully recovered.
"Sakura, I want to go to Tenshu-kaku..."
He didn't dare to look Yae Sakura in the eye as he said this—he had fainted there the last time. And if he mentioned going to Tenshu-kaku again, Yae Sakura would inevitably worry.
"I'll go with you."
This was very much in line with Yae Sakura's personality. In Feng Chen's heart, Sakura had always been like this.
"Sometimes she seems so foolish... She never considers herself."
"So the Host likes this type? Added to S-rank classified documents."
"What are you up to now?"
"Nothing, just some personal preferences."
Feng Chen could guess the purpose behind this quite well: Honkai couldn't understand human emotions, so it wanted to analyze them through the emotions it generated and various reasons, trying to understand human feelings in its own way.
It didn't harm him in any way, so why bother caring so much?
Although, it didn't benefit him at all either...
Tenshu-kaku was already filled with Mortals, the weakest being Ranger Mortals and Guardian Mortals.
"Sakura, be careful."
Ranger Mortals and Guardian Mortals weren't strong individually, but in large numbers, they could be a real headache.
Feng Chen had tried using the effect of his second Title, but within Tenshu-kaku, Jizou Mitama's power dominated these Mortals. The Herrscher's aura had little to no effect on them.
"Host can try using your second Stigmata. Yae Sakura was possessed by a Herrscher of Erosion, and even her Honkai Energy adaptability was brought about by the Herrscher of Erosion. There will always be some trace of the Herrscher of Erosion's aura within the Stigmata. It's more than enough to drive away those weaker Mortals."
"I have an idea. Let's go, we're going in."
Upon entering Tenshu-kaku, Feng Chen and the System, which was part of Honkai, completely lost contact. Here, he could only rely on Sakura's power.
Cherry blossoms began to drift from Feng Chen's hands.
The cherry blossoms enveloped the two of them, passing through the Mortals on the first floor.
On the second floor, Mortals with black and white dual blades had already appeared. Yae Sakura's Stigmata had much less effect on them now.
"Attack!"
Feng Chen swung Judas' Embrace of Blood, sending nearly a third of the Mortals flying with a single strike.
To conserve strength, he could only swing Judas' Embrace of Blood once here. The higher floors had stronger Mortals, so he couldn't use his full power here.
Under Yae Sakura's "Dimensional Slash" attack with its invisible sword energy, she cleared almost the entire second floor by herself.
On the third floor, only Mortals with black and white dual blades and Summoner Demons would appear.
Ten Summoner Demons, each summoning ten Ranger Mortals and ten Guardian Mortals.
As for the black and white dual blades, there were five of each.
"Forty Mortals... Sakura, I'll handle the Summoner Demons and the Mortals they summon."
He was actually deliberately leaving the dual blades to Sakura. After all, one of them could block and the other could dodge, making them troublesome to deal with. Yae Sakura was much faster and stronger than him, so blocking and dodging wouldn't be difficult for her at all.
"Understood."
Yae Sakura didn't care what kind of Mortals were in front of her; with her Simulated Herrscher strength, she could crush them all.
Some abilities couldn't be held back on this floor anymore, like Shadow Knight: Moonblade's Eclipse Mode.
He repeatedly used "Death Force Breaks the Sea," "Death Strength: Waning Moon," and "Inch Punch: Heaven Splitter." If these three martial arts had proficiency levels, they would have been maxed out long ago.
However, it was unfortunate that these were already among Hua's strongest martial arts, and they were at max level when he learned them.
A coffin suddenly dropped from above him. This wasn't a summon, but a physical attack.
"Summoner Demons can use physical attacks too... I thought they only used Honkai Energy attacks."
He wasn't afraid of physical attacks at all. There were very few who could go head-to-head with Hua's martial arts.
He swung his fist upwards, the second form of "Inch Punch: Heaven Splitter," and struck the chest of the Summoner Demon that was dropping the coffin.
Hmm... a bit soft. As expected, even mutated Mortals were still female.
No, no, what was he thinking?!
Three coffins flew from behind him simultaneously. He couldn't dodge attacks from three Summoner Demons at once unless he had three hands.
A purple light flashed within the attack range. From another direction, one could see an Oni Mask now adorning Feng Chen's head.
The golden patterns on his body had also faded, replaced by a white form-fitting suit.
"This form is a bit difficult to maintain..."
Feng Chen frowned. Blood Knight: Moonbeam and Queen of Thunder's Kirin had poor compatibility, even clashing with each other. The first time he used it was when fighting Jizou Mitama, and he had almost collapsed then.
He gripped the short blade at his waist in reverse, using it like a dagger.
Queen of Thunder's Kirin possessed the powerful Power of Lightning, not to mention its incredible speed. Combined with "Wind of Serenity," Feng Chen didn't even have to fear being killed in close combat.
He could just slash once and run, and if he slashed a few more times, wouldn't that be enough?
And so, several more wounds appeared on each of the Summoner Demons.
Unfortunately, the Summoner Demons' regeneration seemed to keep pace with Feng Chen's attack frequency; for every attack Feng Chen landed, a wound would roughly heal completely.
"Since that's the case, let's try this."
He threw out a short blade, a chain of purple lightning at its end connecting to Feng Chen.
This cycle continued, creating a dense net of lightning across Feng Chen's battlefield.
Feng Chen pulled back on the chain with one hand, simultaneously wrapping the lightning chain around a short blade.
With a single swing of the blade, the lightning net on the field tightened a little more, until all the Summoner Demons were driven into a corner.
Next, Execution Mode began, and he swung a blood-red cross, magnified dozens of times.
To prevent the Summoner Demons from burrowing underground, he deliberately buried part of the lightning net into the ground.
The Summoner Demons attempting to burrow underground were instantly zapped out and collapsed limply onto the ground.
The remaining Summoner Demons simultaneously summoned Mortals. The summoned Mortals crowded inside the lightning net, and one wrong move meant touching it.
Feng Chen swatted all the summoned Mortals to death in an instant. Summoner Demons couldn't summon endlessly; there had to be an interval, but Feng Chen simply wouldn't allow it.
The blood-red cross returned to its original size and was planted into the ground.
"teriri is the cutest in the world!"
A blood-colored halberd blade unfurled. The moment before it began to spin, Feng Chen's toes touched the blade, and he leaped into mid-air.
He raised his hands above his head, golden-patterned armor equipping itself piece by piece.
Gauntlets, chest plate, shoulder guards, face mask (I previously wrote goggles, but later felt it wasn't quite right, so I changed it to face mask)...
The moment he landed, he slammed into the ground.
"Death Strength: Waning Moon!"
Cannot find the book title, you can try searching for the author, perhaps the name has been changed!
