However, most of the time, they only become a fleeting afterimage, and only when they collide with each other do they reveal their true forms.
Without excellent dynamic vision, it would be impossible to notice the two people's movements.
No one knows how many moves the two sides exchanged, but in a short time, it must have been at least a hundred. The ground was already full of craters from their battle. The fire that was started by the Fireball had somehow spread into the temple, and even the trees around Fang Yan and the others were on fire.
Setting fire to the mountain will land you in jail for life!
After a long while, the two finally separated. Fang Yan held his sword in one hand and stared at the Tengu in the distance. The Tengu was not in a particularly good condition at the moment. His "cane" was covered with sword marks, and there were even some gaps in it.
One of his two wings was curled up, clearly injured by Fang Yan's previous attack, with feathers falling to the ground.
Not only on his back, but also on his chest, there was a deep sword wound.
These were all left behind by Fang Yan in the previous battles.
However, the situation of the Tengu was not particularly good, and Fang Yan's situation was not particularly good either. His hand holding the Excalibur was trembling constantly, and his tiger's mouth was cracked, with blood flowing continuously.
The Tengu's physical abilities are indeed superior to his. He had previously gained an advantage through his exquisite swordsmanship, but this advantage was not significant. Fang Yan's record of never suffering any injuries since his debut was broken today.
Such an opponent is indeed very troublesome.
Especially in terms of strength, Fang Yan is now not only suffering from a splitting skin on his hand, but also from a constant soreness and weakness in his wrist and arm.
As expected of the famous yokai from the cherry blossom region.
However, I am certain that I will win the battle that follows!
Fang Yan's eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Being able to fight against such an opponent was not only for points, but also a good thing for him personally.
He can combine everything he has learned in the past in the battle.

Chapter 223
"You're strong and very interesting. I've killed quite a few interesting things before, but this is the first time I've encountered someone as strong as you. As of now, you're the strongest among my opponents!" Fang Yan revealed a slight smile. "However, you'd better watch out from now on, I'm about to get serious!"
"Your strength is also quite good. Even before Liu Bowen severed the dragon vein, you could be considered a figure of some importance! You are no weaker than those famous Onmyoji or monks!" Karasu Tengu said in a deep voice, "However, people who fight like you are indeed rare!"
His voice was extremely hoarse, giving off a sinister and terrifying aura.
Upon hearing this, Fang Yan's mind sharpened. He had almost fallen for the trap earlier. This tengu could actually drag people into an illusion with its voice. It was only because he possessed the Sharingan and Sabrina's superpowers that he was now exceptionally sensitive to mental matters and exceptionally strong in defense.
"Interesting!" Fang Yan smiled slightly. This guy was actually playing these tricks on him?
A red light flashed in his eyes, and then three kunai appeared in his hands, which he threw in three different directions.
Previously, Fang Yan wasn't particularly skilled at throwing kunai, but after receiving Sasuke's inheritance, kunai became no challenge for him.
On the other hand, the tengu was momentarily dazed. A strange illusion had appeared in his mind. This was not scientific Σ(っД;)っ. He had actually been pulled into an illusion by this human!
Humans aren't lacking in talent in this area, but the idea of pulling a great demon like him, who has lived for at least several hundred years, into an illusion is something that would shock him no matter how you look at it.
By the time the tengu came to its senses, Fang Yan had already arrived in front of it, wielding the Excalibur, and swung it down at its head. This made the tengu breathe a slight sigh of relief; thankfully, it had reacted quickly enough, otherwise it might have been in danger this time as well.
However, it never noticed that there was a kunai not far from it, and under the intentional or unintentional influence of the illusion, it completely ignored the kunai.
Under normal circumstances, it is extremely difficult to hypnotize or put a being like a tengu into an illusion. In fact, one could easily suffer a backlash if one is not careful.
However, Fang Yan's illusion was never intended to kill the Tengu. It merely gave it a hint, allowing the Tengu to sense Fang Yan's previous actions.
Just as the Excalibur was about to collide with the "cane," Fang Yan's figure vanished from before the Tengu with a whoosh.
Oh no, it's from behind! The Tengu reacted quickly, grabbing its cane to block, while Fang Yan used Excalibur to block the cane's path, and slapped the Tengu's back with his other hand.
At the same moment that Excalibur touched the "cane," Fang Yan's hand also touched the back of Karasu Tengu. It seemed that he didn't use any force, but just made Karasu Tengu stumble.
However, this also made the Tengu realize what was happening, and he continued to attack Fang Yan with his cane.
However, just when it thought Fang Yan would continue to use his sword to block, Fang Yan disappeared from its sight again.
A sense of threat came from behind it. The Tengu swung its cane at Fang Yan's head from behind. It believed that, given the other party's mentality, there was absolutely no way he would want to trade lives with it here.
Perhaps this time, the opponent might be able to stab him, but he himself could also inflict a fatal attack on the opponent.
"Sizzle!" Unfortunately, Fang Yan disappeared behind the Tengu the moment he stabbed it in the back. He also narrowly avoided the cane. Fang Yan could even feel that his head was only a tiny bit away from the cane.
I almost got my head smashed open by that cane.
Fang Yan touched his handsome face with lingering fear. What a close call! He almost died.
However, this time, his tactics were quite good. When he touched the Tengu's back earlier, he left the Flying Thunder God mark on the opponent's back and then launched a surprise attack.
The effect was quite good, successfully inflicting considerable damage on the Tengu, even leaving bloodstains on the Excalibur.
Fortunately, this sword was given to me by the system; otherwise, given my previous reliance on sneak attacks in battle, I wouldn't have been able to use Excalibur effectively.
After all, the swords in Fate can transform.
It's not impossible that he could turn evil.
Of course, such behavior is somewhat unswordsmanlike, but it was very effective, successfully wounding the opponent and leaving a deep gash in their back.
"Now it's time to expand our gains!" A smile appeared on Fang Yan's face as he raised the Excalibur and charged towards the Tengu once more.

Chapter 224
When faced with Fang Yan's sword, the Tengu was startled and hurriedly used his "cane" to block. However, this time, the Tengu's movements were noticeably slower than before.
Clearly, the backstabbing Fang Yan inflicted on the Tengu had a significant impact on him.
At the same time, as Fang Yan poured a large amount of energy from his body into the Excalibur, almost instantly, the Excalibur shone with golden light. As the Excalibur collided with the "cane" once again, Fang Yan could clearly feel that the power used by the Tengu had decreased.
This might be related to the fact that he was stabbed in the back, and it's also related to the fact that the other party was worried about him disappearing again and then continuing to ambush him.
At this moment, it's fair to say that the Tengu was starting to panic.
Faced with the Tengu's three consecutive sword strikes, the Tengu parried all three. Under Fang Yan's deliberate arrangement, all three sword strikes landed on the same spot.
"Crack!" Finally, the Tengu's "crutch" broke under the strain.
Although this "cane" is quite remarkable, it still cannot compare to Excalibur, which is an EX-rank Noble Phantasm. Yes, Excalibur is EX-rank, while Artoria's Excalibur is an A++-rank Noble Phantasm, which is considered one of the best among Noble Phantasms.
However, Fang Yan's Excalibur is EX-rank, a fact he is certain of. This is the same Excalibur that saved the planet—the shining holy sword of the Old Sword. A golden blade created to defeat planet-destroying forces, capable of repelling all evil!
After all, this is a sword that even Fang Yan cannot fully unseal now, and he even feels that if he were to fully unseal it, it might drain him dry!
Even now, after merging with Sasuke, Fang Yan feels he still cannot break the ten seals, as that would drain him dry.
With the support of immense energy, Excalibur also revealed its ferocity, successfully cleaving the "crutch" in two.
The sharp sword energy also penetrated through the cane and struck the Tengu, leaving a bloody mark on its nose.
"Then you should probably go!" Fang Yan took a deep breath. Just as he was about to do something, the Tengu let out a roar, and then something that shocked Fang Yan happened. The Tengu's body began to grow wildly, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, the Tengu became a behemoth.
"This?" Fang Yan stared blankly at the monster in front of him. Was it really okay for a monster to be seven or eight meters tall like this?
Should we just use curry sticks?
Fang Yan hesitated. If the curry stick was blocked, he would be the one to suffer!
At that moment, the Tengu stomped down on the spot where Fang Yan was.
"Susanoo!" Fang Yan took a deep breath and finally decided to use Susanoo! If the Mangekyou Sharingan has a problem, so be it. At worst, he can just wear glasses.
Moreover, he felt that even if his Mangekyou Sharingan went blind, he wouldn't truly become blind. When he received someone else's inheritance, that person's eyes should also be inherited.
Just as the tengu was about to step on Fang Yan, a skeleton appeared to protect Fang Yan.
This scene startled the tengu on the other side; the feeling seemed somewhat familiar!
And what's going on with the other side? Is it some kind of special Yin-Yang magic? Or something else?
How come I haven't seen this before?
"Hmm, this feeling!" Fang Yan covered his eyes, but he didn't feel the heart-wrenching pain he had predicted. In fact, he felt that his pupil power hadn't weakened much, as if something was replenishing it.
Is it Sabrina's superpower? No, it's also the Tears of the Goddess!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Fang Yan's lips. Eye power is also a special kind of energy, and it is also within the special replenishment range of the Goddess's Tears.
For Fang Yan, this is a good thing!
At least he no longer needs to worry about going blind. Even if he uses too much at once, the Goddess's Tears can help him solve the problem of depleting his pupil power.
Most importantly, Fang Yan could clearly feel that his pupil power and superpower seemed to be in sync, as if his pupil power could be enhanced with the help of his superpower.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Fang Yan's lips. His Mangekyou Sharingan continued to surge, and the blue-purple giant quickly took shape, transforming from a mere skeleton into a half-giant wielding a bow and arrow.
"As expected, it's still like this?" Fang Yan felt a little disappointed as he looked at his Susanoo. The bow and arrows were really disappointing.
If only I could wield a sword! My Susanoo could use swordsmanship! Wouldn't that make me invincible?
However, Fang Yan quickly abandoned this idea. If it can't be used, it can't be used. Maybe he can draw a bow-type technique in the future and load it onto Susanoo.
The key now is to take down the tengu in front of us!

Chapter 225
"This is impossible!" Even the Tengu was dumbfounded when he saw the Susanoo that Fang Yan used. Even he felt that it was absurd. Why did the giant that the other party released look like a Tengu?
Moreover, the oppressive aura was even stronger than his own. Who was he, or was the other party a god?! (ノ`Д)ノ
However, Fang Yan did not respond to the other party's idea. He directly aimed his bow and arrow at the Tengu. Before long, the arrow with black flames landed on the Tengu, and flames blazed on its body.
Amaterasu, a flame that many people criticize for being unable to kill, is actually extremely powerful, a flame that even Kaguya Otsutsuki greatly fears.
"Ah!" The black flames burned the tengu in excruciating pain. The pain was so intense that it was hard for the tengu to accept. Why was it so painful? It was as if the flames were burning its very soul.
"Hoo!" Fang Yan saw that the tengu wrapped in black flames had also released its Susanoo. This had taken a huge toll on him. He checked his condition and found that his eye power had indeed been depleted, but it was recovering. There was no problem. It seemed that his Mangekyou Sharingan could be used continuously.
This is absolutely the best news for Fang Yan.
