Even if Chen Anxia stretched out his arm, plus the length of the Nichirin Blade, he still couldn't reach the Fu Nue.
Yet, under these circumstances, Chen Anxia swung his sword horizontally at Fu Nue, chanting, "Water Breathing - Thirteenth Form - Ripple..."
The next moment, a slender, arc-shaped azure water-like sword aura burst forth from Chen Anxia's blade, rippling towards Fu Nue like waves.
The speed of the ripples was clearly visible to everyone present, yet it was not slow. Within a few meters, before Fu Nue could even react, the ripples had already slashed across his neck.
Not only Fu Nue, but also the player ghost next to Fu Nue was rippled across its body.
Immediately afterwards, to the disbelief and shock of the players present, Fu Nue and the player ghost beside him saw their bodies sever directly from where the ripples had struck, blood gushing out like pillars.

Water Breathing - Thirteenth Form - Ripple is a sword form developed by Chen Anxia after reaching the limit and integrating his own foundation.
Although the ripple was only a slender, arc-shaped sword aura, it was incredibly sharp.
The Ripple Sword Technique can easily sever rocks like those that Tanjiro Kamado once cut, or even the neck of the Hand Demon.
Sharpness is also a characteristic of the Ripple sword type.
Chen Anxia's inspiration for creating ripples came from the water jet technology.
Water jet cutting, also known as high-pressure water jet cutting technology, uses water as a cutting tool.
As the name suggests, the greater the pressure of the water jet, the sharper it becomes.
Given enough pressure, a water jet can even easily cut through steel.
Chen Anxia also developed the Ripple sword style based on this.
The Ripple Sword Form is somewhat similar to the Twelfth Form - Wave Burst, both requiring the prior accumulation of sword energy.
But ripples are different from waves.
Wave Burst is the release of sword energy in an instant when it has accumulated to a certain level.
The ripples, on the other hand, are formed when the sword energy accumulates to a certain level, which is then compressed and repeated in a cycle.
This means that the Ripple sword technique is far more difficult than the Wave Burst.
Moreover, the pre-attack animation time for the Ripple sword technique, that is, the preparation time before the attack, is the longest among all sword techniques.
The reason Chen Anxia hadn't used any steps and instead slowly walked towards Fu Ye was precisely because of this.
......
The twelve players inside the room were all astonished when they saw Chen Anxia actually manage to create a blue ripple.
Clearly, this scenario has exceeded their expectations and overturned their understanding.
They simply couldn't imagine that a human could actually unleash sword energy similar to the special effects sword energy seen in martial arts dramas and tokusatsu shows.
Before they could think any further, they saw the azure ripple sweep across the five demons, led by Fu Nue...
The sight of severed bodies and blood splattering into pillars caused some players to vomit on the spot.
But most players looked shocked and incredulous, seemingly unable to believe that the slender blue ripple could possess such terrifying power.
Not only were the players present in disbelief, but the five demons, led by Fu Nue, were also incredulous.
Among them, Fu Nue was incredulous about Chen Anxia's strength.
The four player ghosts were incredulous that Chen Anxia, a fellow player, could unleash such a terrifying attack with a human body.
However incredulous they may be, it doesn't change the fact that their necks or bodies were severed by this azure sword energy.
After a brief moment of shock, the funu, whose neck had been severed, suddenly came to its senses.
Although Fu Nue did not know how Chen Anxia did it, nor did he know why Chen Anxia possessed such great power.
But Fu Nue knew from Chen Anxia's slash just now that he was no match for Chen Anxia.
run!
Without the slightest hesitation, the severed body of the cauldron reached out and caught the still-falling head, then put it back on the broken neck.
In the next instant, countless buds of flesh, like countless worms, grew and wriggled wildly, and soon completely connected the head and body, restoring it to its intact state before it was severed.
During this process, Fu Nue directly manipulated his body to quickly escape from this place and out of Chen Anxia's sight.
Because Chen Anxia didn't use the Nichirin Blade directly, but instead used sword energy ripples to sever Fu Nue's neck, Fu Nue wasn't killed in one blow.
Not only Fu Nue, but also the four player-owned demons beside him.
The sudden escape of the cauldron caught all the players and the Ghost of Players completely off guard, leaving them stunned and speechless.
However, Fuye was confident in his speed.
At full speed, it can travel approximately 20 meters per second, which is 20 meters per second.
This speed is unattainable for ordinary humans, and even for most demon hunters.
But this speed was simply too fast for Chen Anxia...
"too slow..."
Chen Anxia's cold words suddenly rang in Fu Nue's ears like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, shaking Fu Nue's mind and leaving him with an expression of disbelief.
Before Fu Nue could react, Chen Anxia's Nichirin Blade had already slashed across its neck.
This time, it was truly killed by Chen Anxia in one blow.
In his final moments, Fu Nue heard Chen Anxia whisper, "Is this the power of the Lower Moon Demon?"
"Really too weak..."
Upon hearing this, Fu Nue tried desperately to open its mouth and utter the word 'monster,' but it could no longer utter a sound. Its body turned to ashes and vanished into the world.
And all of this happened in the blink of an eye.
For the players and the Ghost of Players present, their memories were still stuck on the fact that Fu Nue had escaped.
Oh, and right, there was that fleeting flash of lightning.
By the time they came to their senses, the cauldron had already turned to ashes.
The players present were naturally happy, joyful, and excited about this fact, and many shed tears of revenge.
As for the four player ghosts present, they felt as if they had fallen into an abyss.
Having reassembled their bodies, they trembled incessantly, staring at Chen Anxia with terrified eyes.
Every cell in their bodies was screaming and telling of the crisis, trying to keep them away from Chen Anxia.
They also wanted to escape, but they sadly discovered that under the oppressive feeling brought by Chen Anxia, they couldn't even run away, and even felt that their bodies were out of their control.
All they could do was whine and howl in fear, like stray dogs.
The moment Chen Anxia looked at them, they collapsed to the ground, their expressions filled with terror and utter disarray, begging for mercy repeatedly.
The players present felt both gratified and saddened by this sight.
Because these four player-demon were their companions not long ago, and were still human, but now...
In this atmosphere, Chen Anxia spoke in a cold voice, "I'll give you a chance to live. My disciple will be here soon. If you can defeat her, you'll have this opportunity."
Before the four player ghosts could speak, Chen Anxia seemed to see through their thoughts and continued, "Of course, you can choose to attack together, as long as you can defeat her."
After hearing Chen Anxia's words, the four player ghosts exchanged glances and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In their view, Chen Anxia was also a player who had only been in this world for a short time, and even if he had disciples, their strength should not be very strong.
Therefore, they should have a chance to survive!

Asakusa.
While shopping with his 'family,' Muzan Kibutsuji seemed to sense something, his expression suddenly turning ugly, and he muttered viciously, "What a piece of trash!"
Seeing this, Kibutsuji Muzan's human 'wife' couldn't help but ask, "Darling, what happened?"
In response, Muzan Kibutsuji gave a gentle smile and said softly, "It's nothing, I just remembered some unpleasant things."
"You should go home first tonight, I have some things to take care of."
Upon hearing this, the 'wife' nodded gently, obeying Muzan Kibutsuji's wishes, hailed a carriage, and went straight home.
The 'wife' who trusted and loved her husband implicitly failed to notice the incredibly cold and cruel gaze Muzan Kibutsuji cast upon her after she left.
Human 'wives' are merely tools used by Muzan Kibutsuji to disguise his identity; they are dispensable to him.
But they will definitely starve to death, and once this tool loses its value, it will be destroyed without hesitation by Muzan Kibutsuji.
After watching his 'wife' leave, Muzan Kibutsuji walked directly to a corner, and the moment he entered the corner, his figure disappeared.
Meanwhile, in Muzan Kibutsuji's stronghold—the Infinity Castle—Muzan Kibutsuji's figure appeared instantly.
As soon as Muzan Kibutsuji appeared, he saw the City Demon, Nakime, kneeling in front of him, holding a biwa (a type of Chinese lute) and with her long hair covering her face.
Nakime is Muzan Kibutsuji's close attendant, residing within the Infinity Castle, where she assists Muzan.
Furthermore, Muzan Kibutsuji's stronghold, the Infinity Castle, is also controlled and operated by Nakime.
All of this is related to Nakime's Blood Demon Art.
Nakime's Blood Demon Art can alter the spatial layout within the Infinite Castle and teleport things within it.
In the original work, when Muzan Kibutsuji summoned the Upper and Lower Moons of the Twelve Demon Moons to gather, it was Nakime who was responsible for summoning all the participants to the Infinity Castle by playing the biwa.
The moment Muzan Kibutsuji appeared in the Infinity Castle, he ordered Nakime, "Summon the Twelve Demon Moons immediately."
As he spoke, Muzan Kibutsuji seemed to have thought of something and continued, "Oh right, let Taotie come too."
Nakime immediately bowed her head in obedience and began to play the biwa in her hands.
During this process, Muzan Kibutsuji's expression was furious and sinister, and he coldly said, "Chen Anxia, beta tester, very good, very good..."
The reason why Muzan Kibutsuji acted this way was because Muzan Kibutsuji sensed that Kame was dead at the moment of his death.
