The White-haired Sword Master's Path to Immortality

Legend has it that in the distant past, a divine dragon from the west came to the land of Ashina. This dragon had a magical ability, which was to make people resurrect from the dead and become immortal. This power was called a dragon. Yin’s power,

As a result, wars broke out in countless countries surrounding Long Yin's power. The small Weiming Kingdom was like an ant in this war. Being dominated and ruled was nothing more than the law of the jungle.

Until twenty years ago, a swordsman appeared in this small country. She was highly skilled in martial arts and her swordsmanship was unparalleled in the world. Under her call, a force called Wei Mingzhong jumped out and launched that war. The war known as [stealing the country],

It is said to be a stolen country, but it is independent. The Weiming country belongs to them. The Weiming country is just getting back their own things.

The setting sun is like blood, and the black crows are noisy.

On the barren land full of reeds, lonely and lifeless corpses had already covered the entire reed grass, dyeing this flawless pure white thing with a demonic blood color.

And in the center of this mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, two figures were fighting.

One was three meters tall, wearing a red battle armor, holding a pitch black halberd in his hand and exploding with a sonic boom just by waving it casually, like a war god descending into the world, his power was astonishing!

But his opponent was slender, and the few armors only covered some of his important parts. His slender waist and black hair dancing in the wind were clearly visible. It was a man with extremely beautiful appearance but a ferocious hair. A girl who had a scar across her cheek and lost one eye.

At first glance, it seems that such a soft woman cannot compete with that figure who is comparable to the God of War, but...

boom!

The huge sound of fine iron clashing set off a wave of air visible to the naked eye. The slender girl holding a samurai sword actually easily deflected the terrifying halberd in the intersection of weapons, and even seemed to be suppressing it!

As if he had expected it, the general with a stern face couldn't help but speak again.

"Ichiji Ashina, you have understood for a long time that even if you win this war, Ashina Kingdom will eventually be destroyed. Only surrendering to my inner palace is your only chance of survival."

Facing Tamura's speech, Kazuhime Ashina remained silent, but she waved the sword in her hand even more fiercely.

bump!

The huge force once again knocked away the halberd's block, but the slender girl could not continue to rush forward, because she knew that when her blade slashed at the body of the warrior in front of her, he would definitely be able to turn the halberd and attack again.

So she flipped her wrist, and the sharp blade that was about to be swung at the general's upper body suddenly swiped down, and pierced the general's instep with lightning speed. In an instant, bright red bloomed, and the huge pain made the general unable to control his body. He was shocked, but fortunately he was also a general who had experienced hundreds of battles. He only twitched for a moment and became calm as before. The halberd flipped and was about to tear the head of this man so close.

But... the battle is ever-changing, and a tiny flaw can make the top warriors decide the winner, and Kazuhime Ashina is one of these top warriors.

It was too late, but it was too fast, but Ashina Kazuhime's body moved sideways and narrowly avoided the halberd wielded by the general. Immediately, she tapped her toes, using the general's knees as the ground, and her body jumped and instantly transformed into a halberd. The afterimage came behind the general in just a moment. Before the general could react, Kazuhime Ashina's sharp blade mercilessly penetrated the general's neck, which was a blind spot that his armor could not defend.

Pfft!

Blood surged out like a fountain, turning Ashina Kazuhime's body red.

Ashina Kazuhime, who was bathed in the general's blood, was filled with murderous intent, and soon she burst into a roar.

"The enemy general Tamura has been beheaded!!!"

The sound spreads thousands of meters and reaches the sky.

The smoke-filled battlefield fell into an unprecedented silence. Immediately after the deathly silence, a sound of panic and flight that was more terrifying than Ashina Kazuhime broke out. The army was defeated like a mountain, and everyone's hearts were dying.

This bloody war to steal the country that lasted for several years finally came to an end at this moment...

The name of Ashina Sword Master has been spread throughout the Warring States period, and his power was still there, and no one dared to step into Ashina Kingdom.

And our story begins when Ashina Sword Master grows old.

Twenty years later,

Wei Mingguo

Main city, castle tower

The solitary cold wind brought up the blazing cold mist and raised her hair as white as snow. Ashina Kazuhime, dressed in a green dress, was standing here, looking into the distance. Wherever she looked, it seemed as if she had penetrated the endless sky. Deep in the mountains and on high buildings, I saw the blood that was about to rise into the sky.

Unknowingly, twenty years have passed since that bloody battle, and I... will eventually die with the passage of time. Nothing exists forever. The sword master is getting old, and the enemies that invaded in the past are ready to attack. , after the short-term peace, there will be greater pain. This country should not have existed from the beginning.

How could she not know that, as General Tamura said twenty years ago, even if Ashina geniuses like them take back the country, how long can they protect it? Weakness is the original sin.

But she has no regrets, or in other words, she has no right to regret as she has already shouldered everything.

If she could do it again, I'm afraid she would still hold on to the sword in her hand as before and lead the Weiming people to take back the land that should belong to them.

It's just a pity...

Ashina Kazuhime sighed helplessly, her dark and deep eyes full of complexity.

“报！”

The biting cold wind suddenly howled, and a ninja dressed in black appeared beside Isshin at some point.

"Lord Yiji, I have an urgent report."

Squinting coldly, even though her body is extremely old, even though she has been tortured by illness for many years, even though her oil is almost exhausted, Ashina Kazuhime's pair of black eyes are still radiant with coldness, even compared to her heroic appearance back then. My younger self is even better.

"speak"

"Lord Genichiro, he is going to seize the power of Long Yin."

Her face was calm. There was no joy or sadness on Ashina Yiji's face.

"I see"

With a faint promise, Kazuhime Ashina didn't seem to care at all, and just continued to turn around and look at the heavy snow dancing in the wind, and the faint color of blood in the cold wind.

An unknown amount of time passed like this, until the sun set in the west, Ashina Kazuhime murmured as if she had made up her mind.

"I am not a real sword master after all"

Even if he had been born into this world, even if he had personally experienced the bloody battle against the pirates, even if he had taken back Ashina's land with the sword in his hand, he was still not a sword master after all, and he could not be as free and easy as the real Ashina sword master. Just like this old woman's body, the sword master of the real world should be a man, a man named Isshin Ashina.

And I... am just a time-travel successor, at most Isshin Ashina from a parallel time and space. Naturally, I can't watch the destruction of the country I took back with my own hands, and experience that hellish experience again. Horrible nightmare.

She raised her head, and her wrinkled face showed an unprecedented determination. I am not afraid of death or pain, but I am pitiful that Mr. Wei Ming will die with me. My body is old, and as Wei The lord of the country should use his body to protect the country of Weiming.

at any cost!

This is me... and this is the decision of Sword Master Ashina in this parallel time and space.
