He shouldn't have been able to fight this black monster for so long.
However, after Chen Fan drew the Heavenly Cloud Sword and attacked the black monster, he discovered something astonishing!
That was, as long as his Heavenly Cloud Sword struck the black monster, the monster's body would shrink a bit, and the shrunken body would turn into a beam of black light, which Chen Fan absorbed and devoured into his body!
This was why, after a long night of struggle, the black monster had shrunk from a behemoth to a human-sized figure.
At the same time, Chen Fan discovered that this black light could suppress the demonic core power that was raging and acting up within him!
Stretching lazily, Chen Fan didn't bother with the self-defense force members, who were either dead or injured.
After all, they had come here to capture Chen Fan.
Chen Fan would have to be insane to rescue his enemies.
Sheathing the Heavenly Cloud Sword, Chen Fan moved swiftly, returning to the Miyamoto Divine Pill, turned the bow, and sailed towards the high seas once more!
As Chen Fan steered the Miyamoto Divine Pill towards the high seas, on the self-defense force's fishing boat, a young reporter, not part of the self-defense force, quickly reached out and wiped his phone lens.
Then, he aimed his blood-covered face at the phone's lens and said weakly and in astonishment.
"Hiss... Hisss go!"
He was an unknown reporter. When the self-defense force requisitioned the fishing boat, he had paid some money and managed to sneak aboard.
Originally, he had intended to broadcast the rescue of the divine official live, earning some traffic and fame online.
In fact, although he hadn't broadcast the divine official's rescue live,
He had captured a black monster and a sword-wielding hero!
"Did you all just see that? That monster was killed with a sword. Did I just film him? If you're interested, you can check the netizens' recordings. I think I... I'm going to die..."
After saying this excitedly, the young reporter could no longer hold on. He closed his eyes, and his phone fell into the vast ocean.
"Gurgle, gurgle..."
His live stream, after a few moments of gurgling water sounds, completely lost signal...
But!
This young reporter was also a well-known outdoor streamer!
Every one of his live stream videos was recorded by loyal fans for playback!
And the content of his recent live stream was no exception!
Coupled with the fact that what he had filmed earlier was too unbelievable, the viewers from all over the world in his live stream began to check his playback immediately!
In the playback video, which was slowed down many times, although the picture was very blurry, one could still see a humanoid black monster leaping and bounding in the frame, tearing and killing many self-defense force soldiers with its sharp teeth and soft limbs!
Then, because the black monster moved too fast, the camera could only capture a black shadow.
But soon,
A man with an Eastern face, holding a katana, appeared in front of the camera!
At this time, the reporter had already been attacked by the black monster, and the phone's lens had been damaged.
Therefore, the already blurry picture became even blurrier, making it impossible to clearly see the man's detailed features.
However, the man then stabbed and killed the black monster with one sword!
At this moment, the owner of the phone could no longer hold on. The camera shook and fell onto the deck, and the screen went black.
Then, after about a few minutes, the picture recovered.
The young reporter, his face covered in blood, said what he had said above.
Then, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water, the picture ended.
"Shocking! Godzilla Appears in Sakura Country! Unknown Swordsman Will Defeat It!"
"Breaking News! Monster Appears! Hero Appears!"
"..."
For a moment, this blurry video, which lasted only a few seconds, began to spread like wildfire in Sakura Country, both online and offline!
All sorts of titles sprang up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain!
The core draw of this video for the people of Sakura Country was naturally the long-lost Heavenly Cloud Sword and the humanoid black monster!
Of course, it wasn't just the common people of Sakura Country who had this curiosity.
After this short video went viral, the royal family and administrative officials of Sakura Country also began to gather the nation's top personnel to research the video!
"Although the picture is blurry, I can still see that this sword is our country's long-lost Heavenly Cloud!" a renowned archaeologist of Sakura Country replied to the Prime Minister.
This sword is likely real!
This news quickly spread from the Prime Minister's office to the ears of all cultivators in Sakura Country!
At this time, in the room of Princess Mieko of the Sakura Country's royal family.
Princess Mieko had already gathered a group of relevant technical personnel before her.
Currently, on a large screen in front of her, a short video lasting only a few seconds was playing.
And this short video was naturally the one of Chen Fan slaying the black monster with the Heavenly Cloud Sword.
The busy technical personnel in front of Princess Mieko had used the most advanced technology to restore Chen Fan's face as much as possible.
Although the restored image still had some gap from Chen Fan's true appearance,
For Princess Mieko, this approximate image was enough.
Because, to her, no one in this world could exude such a unique aura!
At this moment, the technical personnel were trying to further improve the clarity of the image, but Mieko pointed to a fleeting frontal shot of a person and said.
"Show me that scene again."
As soon as the princess spoke, the technical personnel worked diligently.
For only a few frames, Princess Mieko watched repeatedly.
Most importantly, she said nothing, just stared blankly at the person in the image.
The technical personnel naturally stopped their work and stared at the screen with Princess Mieko.
For as long as the princess watched, so did they.
"My princess, you've watched it many times. What's wrong with this picture?"
Finally, the technical director, who saw nothing wrong in these frames, thought there was a problem with the picture and asked.
