Redemption of a Born Demon

Chapter 196 - 187: The Japanese Master’s Spurious Eastern Ninja Technique

Inside the venue, under the gazes of nearly twenty thousand people, Demon Flame flared as Yi Beidou stepped out of thin air, appearing before the crowd.

He was tall and imposing, his aura immense. With the Demon Flame clinging to his body, the surrounding environment seemed to warp. All things appeared to lose their color, and only Yi Beidou’s figure grew ever larger in the eyes and hearts of the crowd, as if he had become the center of the world.

’He... he really appeared!!’

Seeing this, Qian Haochuan and the others felt their hearts tremble, so excited they almost cried out in shock.

They had never imagined that Yi Beidou would actually appear directly at the site of Japan’s All Martial Arts Conference!

Under the gazes of the massive audience, the figures of the Japan Martial Arts Realm, and even two "Martial Saints," he appeared so brazenly, without a hint of concealment, instantly stealing the entire spotlight.

It was as if the countless cheers, the fervent atmosphere, and the spectacular stage were all prepared specifically to welcome his arrival.

How could such a scene not make their hearts pound with excitement?

’This is how a true man should be!!’

They couldn’t help but feel this way in their hearts.

On the other side, when Du Yuzhu and Qiao Fei saw Yi Beidou appear, their hearts grew heavy.

’The higher-ups’ speculation was right. He actually showed up, bold as brass, at the All Martial Arts Conference!’

But Japan had clearly made preparations; this trip was likely to be extremely dangerous.

’We need to find a way to notify them back home as soon as possible.’

Du Yuzhu and Qiao Fei didn’t speak, only exchanging a look, but they both understood each other’s meaning.

"Who is that?! Did you guys just see that? A ball of fire flared up, and this guy just appeared out of thin air? Am I seeing things?!"

"I saw it too! It’s incredible, how did he do that?"

"It sounds like he’s speaking the Donghua Language? Only people from Japan can participate in the All Martial Arts Conference. Why would one of the Donghua People be here?"

"Is he here to cause trouble at the All Martial Arts Conference?"

"..."

After a brief silence, the Japanese audience erupted in an uproar.

Due to a media blackout, most people in Japan had no idea who Yi Beidou was.

But this man was speaking the Donghua Language, and judging by his aura, his attitude, and the judges’ reactions, they knew he had come with ill intent.

"So he actually came to our country? And he dares to show himself so brazenly at the All Martial Arts Conference! The man is incredibly audacious, showing us no respect at all."

"But this is perfect. Killing him will not only restore the face we’ve lost, but it will also make a name for the Japan Martial Arts Realm throughout the world."

"So what if he’s the ’number one of the world’s new generation’? He’ll still die if he dares to set foot in our country!"

Sen Dizang watched Yi Beidou with eyes as sharp as a falcon’s, his gaze incomparably fierce.

He took a step forward. The judges’ table was in his way, but Sen Dizang’s figure seemed to pass right through it, as if using a Wall-Passing Technique, and he continued walking toward Yi Beidou.

This was because his speed in vaulting over the judges’ table was so fast that it exceeded the limits of the crowd’s perception, creating this miraculous phenomenon.

Sanada Katsuhiko, dressed in a white Kendo Uniform, wore an indifferent expression. With a light tap of his toes, he too crossed the judges’ table and walked toward Yi Beidou.

"Who in the world is this man?"

"Yi Beidou, one of the Donghua People. Not long ago at the Modu Martial Hero Conference, he defeated Mr. Ooshima, the Shindo Tenryu Sword Saint, as well as many experts from the Starry Sky Country who had reached the New Martial Arts Saint Realm. He’s considered the number one of the world’s new generation in the Saint Realm."

"For him to appear here, he must have sinister intentions!"

"..."

The various Hall Master-level figures also began to murmur amongst themselves, their expressions uncertain.

"Lord Sanada, I’ll test his strength first. You find an opening and deliver the fatal blow. How does that sound?"

Sen Dizang said to Sanada Katsuhiko beside him.

"Fine. This man is no simpleton. Don’t underestimate him."

Sanada Katsuhiko said calmly. It was as if all his emotions had been concealed, and only his eyes grew brighter and brighter, seemingly transforming into sharp swords.

Piercing illusions, piercing the Life Magnetic Field, striking directly at the essence.

One of the Beichen Xin Yinliu Three Sword Techniques: the Eye Sword Form.

Turning the eyes into swords—not to intimidate an opponent, but to slash through complex superficialities and reach the core essence.

This kind of vision could see through Techniques, see through the workings of the Life Magnetic Field, and see through the body’s movements.

Find the flaw, and defeat the opponent in an instant.

At this moment, in Sanada Katsuhiko’s eyes, the Demon Flame on Yi Beidou’s body distorted the surrounding Life Magnetic Field, seeming to devour heaven and earth. The Qi and blood within his body raged like a tsunami, imbued with a powerful Demon Nature.

Among the many experts of the Saint Realm he had encountered, those who could achieve such a level of True Qi and physical strength were exceedingly rare.

He would not underestimate the opponent before him.

"I don’t need you to remind me of that."

A smile touched the corners of Sen Dizang’s mouth.

He then walked toward Yi Beidou step by step. As he did, his hands formed a series of seals in front of his chest.

The method was incredibly similar to the Esoteric Hand Seal, but not entirely the same; it possessed a peculiar Dao rhythm.

Rin! Pyō! Tō! Sha! Kai! Jin! Retsu! Zai! Zen!

With each Hand Seal formed, Yi Beidou could feel the Life Magnetic Field within the man’s body change. Stimulated by the Hand Seals, it was being enhanced and sublimated, causing his aura and True Intent to continuously rise.

At the same time, his body’s surface also began to change. As the seals were continuously formed and his Life Magnetic Field grew stronger, dense, blood-red patterns emerged on his skin, covering every inch of his body and even faintly emitting a crimson glow.
