Inside the Infinity Castle, Ye Chen was still chasing Kokushibo like a madman.
Netherworld Breathing, First Form: Cherry Blossom Spirit Blade Slash!
As he chased, Ye Chen activated his Breathing Style, leaping hard in the middle of his sprint and launching himself through the air.
Netherworld fire surged over his Long Sword. He held it up and spun, slicing through several flying boards as he slashed toward Kokushibo.
Kokushibo kicked off the ground as well, leaping forward and activating his Breathing Style as he dashed through the air.
Moon Breathing, Fifth Form: Moon Spirit Calamity!
Crescent blades of sword energy shot out without him even having to swing his sword, striking toward Ye Chen behind him.
Ye Chen whirled his Long Sword, instantly scattering the sword energy. But it slightly impeded his own attack, preventing him from landing a direct hit on Kokushibo. Only a few blades of sword energy grazed him.
Ye Chen refused to give up and continued charging after Kokushibo.
Partway through the chase, the terrain before Ye Chen suddenly changed.
Plink~
As a note rang out from the koto, a section of floor rose beneath Kokushibo's feet, lifting him out of Ye Chen's path.
Ye Chen remained completely unfazed and thrust his Long Sword into the board.
Then he leaped, shooting straight up.
Once he reached the top, he brought his Long Sword crashing straight down at Kokushibo with a Rising Slash.
Seeing that he still hadn't shaken this guy off, Kokushibo felt miserable. All he could do was dodge the attack and keep running.
After being chased for so long and grazed several times by Ye Chen's flames, Kokushibo felt utterly drained. Yet the guy behind him was still bursting with energy.
Which one of us was the human, and which one was the demon?!
