Chapter 169 Caged Bird
Invisible silk thread?
Li Shanyi frowned.
This steel wire is as sharp as a knife and will cut a bloody wound with just the slightest touch.
He looked into the distance.
Although his arms had been chopped off, the Five Ghosts seemed unaware and their entire bodies crawled on the steel wire like a spider.
Two steel wires were thrown into the air and pulled back the two severed arms.
"Hehe, they say ghosts have strong self-healing abilities."
"But injuries like broken arms and legs will take at least a day or two to heal, and you'll need to eat a few people."
"But I, the Five Ghosts, have a better ability to heal."
He grinned sinisterly, his mouth wide open.
More threads spurted out of his mouth.
It pulled the broken arm like a steel wire while piercing into the bodies of the five ghosts.
Like sewing stitches, he sewed Wu Gui's arm to his broken arm.
"My arm is back."
The five ghosts rotated their left and right arms.
"Next, it's hunting time."
Wu Gui crawled on the wire on all fours, twice as fast as when he was chasing Li Shanyi.
"My blood demon art is called 'Devil Spider'."
"Unlike the other ghosts, their blood ghost arts are all some kind of abilities, such as the 'conductivity' of the three ghosts and the 'armor breaking' of the seven ghosts."
"But my vampire magic is different from theirs."
"My blood demon art is to transform into the evil demon spider that controls the silk thread!"
Wu Guiyin said this with a smile, and suddenly his body was covered with black hair.
However, his weapon, the "Long Sword and Sewing Needle", did not stab the enemy.
But he stabbed her hard into his body.
Blood flowed, and the two steel needles merged into his body and turned into the two legs of a spider.
He wandered around Li Shanyi.
Steel wire kept coming out of his mouth.
But in Li Shanyi's eyes, he only saw the other person's mouth opening and closing.
After nearly a minute, the five ghosts finally landed on a huge rock.
"It's really strange..."
His eyes were full of confusion.
"My Devil Spider has three abilities."
"The first is to mend a broken limb. The injury can be healed by suturing it with wire."
"And the second type is invisible silk. All the silk threads that come out of my mouth have the ability to become invisible."
"You obviously couldn't see my wire at all, and there were several times when I fired from behind you, but you were able to dodge it!"
The five ghosts just circled around Li Shanyi and spit out invisible steel wires at least dozens of times.
But as long as the steel wire came within a foot of Li Shanyi's body, he would immediately notice it and then dodge it with extremely fast and tiny movements.
It's like a 360-degree eye in the sky with no blind spots.
"Is this your ability?"
The five ghosts licked their lips and showed an excited expression.
"I thought I had chosen the most boring prey, but I didn't expect there would be so many surprises."
"The meat of prey of this strength must be much tastier than that of ordinary humans!"
The Five Ghosts smiled sinisterly as they looked at Li Shanyi, who was hanging on a tightrope.
The transparent steel wire was very clear in the Five Ghosts' own vision.
It had just spit out the steel wire dozens of times, but only a small portion of it was shot directly at the other party.
He placed more silk threads around Li Shanyi.
In Li Shanyi's eyes, there was nothing around.
But in the eyes of the Five Ghosts, dozens of steel wires were densely intertwined around Li Shanyi.
A wire cage surrounded him.
This is his proud skill, called "Birdcage".
And Li Shanyi is the bird in the cage.
"Hey, from now on, you can't move, because if you move, your body will be cut by the wire."
The five ghosts laughed loudly on the rocks.
Just as the five ghosts were laughing, Li Shanyi swung his knife.
He slowly raised his knife and slashed towards the five ghosts.
"Thunder Breathing Form 4, Far Thunder!"
A flash of lightning flew out from his sword and flew towards the five ghosts on the boulder like a dragon.
If Qin Shi were here, he would probably be so surprised that his mouth would be wide open.
Because in his memory, Li Shanyi's successor, Agatsuma Zenitsu, was a ghost swordsman who could only use the first form of Thunder Breathing and Thunderbolt Flash in the early stage.
Although he later mastered several other moves of Thunder Breathing, that was in the later part of the Demon Slayer manga.
And his roommate Li Shanyi, a new student who had just entered the school like himself, could actually use other moves of Thunder Breathing.
The "Distant Thunder" move transformed into a swimming dragon that slammed into the boulder, creating a big hole in it.
"boom!"
A piece of metal broke off the boulder and hit the ground heavily.
"Huhu~~"
The five ghosts who escaped from the distant thunder attack at the last moment gasped for breath.
He had just pushed his speed to the limit and glided on the wire like a spider, which allowed him to avoid the distant thunder.
As the ghost with the best speed among the seven sword ghosts, Wugui has always believed that his blood ghost art is invincible, but it has a range limit.
And as long as he enters his tightrope hunting ground, he is confident that he can have combat power comparable to that of a lower-rank master.
But just now, the eighteen-year-old boy in front of him swung the knife seemingly casually.
He almost got caught.
"you!"
The prey in front of him was clearly in a birdcage, but he was indifferent, calm, and disdainful.
But the five hunters couldn't help but feel fear.
Who is the hunter and who is the prey?
“Damn it…Damn it!”
The five ghosts howled in anger.
"Why are you so calm? Your fear, your anxiety, your begging for mercy?"
"Why are you different from the people I killed!"
Li Shanyi just looked at him coldly.
"How funny! How can you kill me? Don't you know that you are already in my hunting ground?"
The five ghosts kept clamoring.
He didn’t realize that if a hunter piled on his prey, it could only mean one thing.
This hunter was afraid.
From this moment on, he was no longer worthy of being a hunter.
"Guess what the third ability of the Devil Spider is?"
The Five Ghosts pulled out the two long needles that had merged into his body.
He pulled the long needle violently with both hands, his expression showing great effort.
Blood spurted out from his wound.
"My third ability is that I can control these steel wires to strangle my prey."
The five ghosts endured the pain, their faces full of ferocity.
"I will mince you to pieces."
He had to kill the enemy in front of him immediately, otherwise he would not be able to suppress the growing fear in his heart.
"Go to hell!"
In an instant, there was a crackling sound, like the sound of the silk threads on a guzheng breaking.
The steel wires around Li Shanyi began to move, strangling him from all directions.
Even though he had the ability to sense the area an inch in front of him, there were too many steel wires coming at him at the same time, and he couldn't dodge at all.
Although death was approaching, Li Shanyi in the center of the birdcage remained expressionless.
He held the knife with both hands and chopped it down fiercely.
