Urban Supreme Wild Son-in-Law War God

Chapter 212 Iaido

"Today, my attempt to reach the Imperial Realm has failed, leaving my already depleted vital energy even more inadequate."

"Even if I don't fight you with all my strength today, I fear I only have three months left."

"Since it is so, it's better to die a spectacular death and experience the power of the Imperial Realm!"

Dragon Valley Senji looked at Ye Ling, smiling as he spoke.

At this moment, his aged face bore a trace of relief.

The elusive Imperial Realm, like a massive mountain, had weighed on him his whole life.

Today, he had found the opportunity to challenge the Imperial Realm, but due to the decline of his vital energy, he had failed.

This caused his already nearly depleted vital energy to become even less insufficient.

Ye Ling nodded upon hearing this, then said earnestly, "After you die, I will have them bring your body back to Wo Country."

"There is an old saying in Dragon Country, 'The fallen leaves return to the root,' right?"

Dragon Valley Senji pondered and then smiled, "Thank you! You are the first person from Dragon Country whom I truly admire!"

"To die at your hands is enough for me."

At this moment, the two no longer seemed like enemies, but rather like two old friends who had known each other for a long time.

The aura around Dragon Valley Senji began to rise, and within a few breaths, it had reached the limit of the War King Realm, just a step away from entering the Imperial Realm.

"Break!"

Dragon Valley Senji let out a shout, and immediately his aura broke through the final threshold, stepping directly into the Imperial Realm.

The terrifying aura swept around like a fierce wind.

Everything it touched, vanished into nothingness.

Chen Dao was also forced back hundreds of meters by this aura, his expression one of shock as he watched Dragon Valley Senji, resembling a celestial being descended to earth.

He murmured softly, "Is this the power of the Imperial Realm..."

The three samurais from Wo Country still in the fortress were also completely shocked.

This was probably the first time a true Imperial Realm powerhouse had shown their full strength in front of others.

Ye Ling's expression remained calm, not the slightest perturbed by Dragon Valley Senji's aura, nor by his step into the Imperial Realm.

In truth, Dragon Valley Senji at this moment could only be considered halfway into the Imperial Realm.

And now he had exhausted all his vital energy to forcibly push himself into the Imperial Realm.

After this battle, Dragon Valley Senji was bound to die without a doubt!

"Northern Liao King! Please make your move!"

Dragon Valley Senji's momentum reached its peak as he addressed Ye Ling.

Ye Ling nodded slightly, then his own aura also began to rise rapidly.

The same aura, equally terrifying!

"Be careful!"

Ye Ling said.

Then he slowly raised his right hand and pointed a finger towards Dragon Valley Senji.

Divine light appeared at his fingertip, instantly slicing through the sky, and almost in the blink of an eye, it had reached Dragon Valley Senji.

Dragon Valley Senji's expression was solemn, and he waved his hands. Strands of Gang Qi appeared, blocking in front of him.

Facing Ye Ling's seemingly casual strike, Dragon Valley Senji used all the techniques he knew.

Although he now possessed the strength of the Imperial Realm, compared to a true Imperial Realm, he, who had burned his own vital energy to step into the Imperial Realm, simply could not possess the combat power of the Imperial Realm.

"Hiss!"

The divine light instantly struck the Gang Qi in front of Chikaharu Tatsutani, emitting a piercing sound.

This strand of divine light was like a drill, continuously impacting Chikaharu Tatsutani's Gang Qi, and under this strand, the Gang Qi soon started to dent.

Seeing his own Gang Qi about to be breached, Chikaharu Tatsutani suddenly burst out yelling.

Instantly, a more powerful Gang Qi surged out from within him, but his already fully white hair and beard began to fall out.

As more and more Gang Qi surged from within him, the speed of his hair loss became faster and faster.

"Burning one's own life force to glimpse the power of the Imperial realm..."

"Although Wo Country is full of petty people, after all, there are those like you who, for the sake of martial arts, can abandon everything."

Ye Ling calmly looked at Chikaharu Tatsutani, sighing softly as he whispered.

If it weren't for their opposing stances, and them being enemies, Ye Ling truly would not have killed Chikaharu Tatsutani.

Someone like him, who could forsake his life for the sake of martial arts, should not have perished here.

But the situation was such that even if Ye Ling did not kill him, he would not survive the day.

Once one's life force begins to burn, it cannot be stopped, only ceasing when every bit of life energy has been completely consumed!

"Break!"

Chikaharu Tatsutani burst out yelling and finally shattered the divine light that Ye Ling had emitted.

Then he immediately opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, the wrinkles on his already aged face multiplying.

Ignoring the blood remaining at the corner of his mouth, he looked at Ye Ling with a shocked expression and said, "The true Imperial realm is far beyond what my current state can compare to..."

"It's a pity that after a lifetime of arduous practice in martial arts, I've never personally experienced the power of the Imperial realm till death."

"However, being able to fight a formidable opponent like you with such power before dying is also worth it."

Saying this, Chikaharu Tatsutani drew the katana at his waist.

It was a katana entirely in blood-red, with blood-like patterns on the blade that resembled fresh blood.

If one stared at this katana for too long, they could even see these blood-colored patterns flowing slowly like blood.

"Demon Blade Iai?"

Seeing this katana, Ye Ling raised an eyebrow and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Chikaharu Tatsutani gazed deeply at the blood-colored long blade in his hand, his hand trembling slightly as he caressed the blade.

His eyes full of tenderness, as if he were not looking at a blade, but at his beloved!

"Your Excellency is right, this is indeed the Demon Blade Iai."

"Except in my eyes, it is not a demon blade, but my partner."

"From the moment I first held Iai at the age of thirteen, I knew it would accompany me for life..."

Chikaharu Tatsutani's voice was somewhat somber, as if recalling his past.

Ye Ling did not speak to interrupt, merely stood quietly listening as Chikaharu Tatsutani recounted his life.

From a boy growing step by step into a warrior of great strength, until today's failed attempt to reach the Imperial realm.

In the end, choosing to trade his life force for a fleeting possession of the power of the Imperial realm, engaging in this final battle of his life with Ye Ling.

"Your Excellency, although we are enemies, I have a favor to ask of you."

After telling his life story, Chikaharu Tatsutani turned towards Ye Ling, saying earnestly.

Ye Ling nodded slightly, and spoke, "Speak."

"After my death, I hope you will treat this Iai kindly..."

Chikaharu Tatsutani said solemnly.

Ye Ling was startled, clearly not expecting the other party to choose to entrust this Demon Blade Iai to him, a person of Dragon Country!
