Seeing the thick blood mist, Ryuji bent his knees, adjusted his waist, and, using his breath and core muscles, activated the tenth form of Water Breathing.
"Water Breathing, Sixth Form: Whirlpool!"
Ryuji spun, his two-colored Nichirin sword tracing a graceful arc.
Once the arc was complete, a massive water vortex formed around him. The strong airflow at the vortex's edge lifted some of the blood mist into the air.
However, the blood mist was too dense; the vortex's airflow didn't improve the situation.
It wasn't that his attack wasn't strong enough; the blood mist's density was too high.
"Useless! The more you struggle, the faster the tiny poison particles in the blood mist will fuse with your cells. First, you'll feel complete paralysis. Then, your vision will be paralyzed. Finally, you'll become a bug for me to slaughter at will."
Lower Rank Six laughed at Ryuji's foolishness. If his Blood Demon Art were easily broken, he wouldn't be a Lower Rank of the Twelve Kizuki.
As Lower Rank Six finished speaking, Ryuji felt his body numb, and his vision plunged into darkness, as if he had gone blind.
Ryuji wasn't panicked. Giving in to fear would make him no better than a coward.
Besides, with the system, even permanent blindness should be reversible.
He stopped attacking and used his aura to sense his surroundings, but the strong smell of blood in the mist prevented him from sensing Lower Rank Six's presence.
"I forgot to tell you, if you stay in my Blood Prison too long, the poison will become stronger. Besides blindness, your other senses will be lost, and the poison will completely erode your body. Hahaha~" Lower Rank Six, confident of victory, laughed.
Ryuji ignored him and thought about breaking the deadlock.
The simplest way was to activate Demon God Transformation, but that would forfeit the mission reward, which he didn't want to miss.
During the stalemate, Ryuji had a sudden inspiration and switched to the Breath of the Forest.
Using the Breath of the Forest, he felt the numbness gradually disappear, but his vision remained dark.
After waiting a while, Lower Rank Six, impatient to wait for Ryuji to die from the poison, prepared to deliver the final blow to the seemingly senseless Ryuji.
Lower Rank Six lunged at Ryuji, aiming a punch at his head.
Lower Rank Six clearly intended to destroy Ryuji's head, leaving him no chance to breathe.
Just as Lower Rank Six thought the blow was certain to kill, Ryuji skillfully dodged it.
Lower Rank Six was shocked. Its fist narrowly missed Ryuji's head, only the strong wind ruffling his white hair.
