Different Sword: The Changing Boundary

Dark Divine Blade Character Quotes

This is not a mutation of swordsmanship, but rather, a misalignment of will and rules. Whether or not you can confront it depends on whether or not you dare to face the "flaws beyond instinct."

Act One: Night of the Boundary

East Cloud Academy, Western Forest

Three in the morning

This is the forbidden area of the swordsmanship club and one of the zones designated as an "abnormal energy field observation area" by the academy for decades. Rumors abound: shadows, whispers, and shattered light. Tonight, Kyouichi Tendou stands alone in the forest.

"Is this the 'boundary perception' spoken of by the Black God Blade?"

He can feel the vibrations in the air, which are no longer uniform. It's as if the sword intent hangs at his fingertips, threatening to sever his connection to the world.At that moment, a figure seemingly stepping out of a "crack" emerges, draped in fragmented armor from another world. A silver-patterned, broken mask obscures his face, and he has a long sword with cracks at his waist. His aura is unlike that of a human. He is neither a student nor a member of the East Cloud system. Instead, he is the "Other Sword User" — Kahn the Boundary Slayer.

Act Two: World-Cutter: Kahn

Kahn slowly spoke, his voice like a tearing wind: "You are the heir to the sword of humanity, Tian Dao Liu · Jing Yi. I have come at the behest of the 'Rift Council' to verify whether your existence poses a threat to the order of the other world."

Jing Yi furrowed his brow tightly.

"Verification? Are you testing the 'limits' of our swordsmanship?"

Kahn replied, "No, it is to measure your critical point of collapse."

Without warning, Kahn drew his sword.

Otherworldly Sword Style: Head of Rift: Cross-Shadow Soul Cut

A blade of light, almost without trajectory, closed in instantly. It possessed the characteristic of breaking spatial localization, sealing off the evasion path.

Tian Dao Jing Yi could only take it head-on!

"Tian Dao Liu: Triad Unbreakable: Defensive Breaking Continuous Strike!"During the clash of the first move, Jing Yi's arm trembled from the impact. The second move used his momentum to evade the vital point in front of his chest. The third move forced its way into a counterattack trajectory. However, Kahn's sword, like a phantom shadow, pierced through the defense and locked Jing Yi's right shoulder!At that moment, Jing Yi clearly understood for the first time that this was not a matter of "speed," but rather of how "dimensions" were altered in battle. He was forced back several steps, blood seeping from his sleeves.

[Act III · Kendo Breakpoint]

Karn stood still with the tip of his sword on the ground.

"Do you understand? The sword of humanity, 'skill,' cannot penetrate the cause of the otherworld."

"Your swordsmanship only exists in the linear dimension. We have already entered the 'stream of non-linear cognition.'" "

At this moment, Tiandao Jingyi slowly raised his head.

Blood dripped down his jaw, but his eyes remained calm.

He held the sword in his left hand that had been forced back. Suddenly, he ... He inserted it backwards into the ground.

A new track is born from the flaws: a type of Heavenly Dao Flow, Broken Return, and Outer Heart Sword.

He no longer follows the traditional triple, but rather, "derives the construction" from the collapse.

"I see. You're not invincible..."

It's just that we who have been living in the "safe sword style" are afraid of breakage.

The next moment—

"Heavenly Dao Flow, Anti-Structure Flow, Split Ring!"

Starting from the reverse slash composition, his sword creates a "curved parry field" at the point of contact and uses the inward collapse reverberation force of the Karn-style sword structure to block the opponent's next strike.

Karn was moved for the first time.

But he didn't keep shooting.

"Enough. You are not the strongest, but you are the most 'unstable.'" "

He dissipated into the night in a silver light, as if he had never existed.

Temptation of the Breach:

Tiandaojing knelt on the ground; the sword in his hand was broken by half an inch.

Dark clouds rolled in the sky.

The Black God Blade emerged from the forest and slowly approached.

"You've seen him."

Kyoichi said, "He said... I'm in a 'precarious spot.'" The Black God Blade chuckled.

The Black God Blade chuckled. "He's not wrong. The other world isn't afraid of the strong; it's afraid of variables." The Black God Blade continued.

The two looked at the sky in silence.

After tonight, the other world will no longer be able to interfere with Dongyun School Park.

It's about certainty.
