Chapter 1076 Difference in Skills
Kahn, fully embodying his Byakuya persona, unveiled an awe-inspiring new technique: Mugen no Ken no Ryōiki, a skill unmatched in power and artistry.
This formidable ability manifested as over a billion ethereal swords, each one forged from cosmic aether. The sheer spectacle of it... a boundless array of gleaming, otherworldly blades suspended in the air, left all who witnessed it utterly speechless, their eyes wide with a mixture of admiration and dread.
[Is this truly possible for a 6th-stage saint? No, even a 7th-stage saint can't create these many swords using their skill.] thought the Hero of s.p.a.ce, unable to hide his surprise.
Every single created replica of Muramasa seemed to have a life of its own and moved freely while maintaining the formation akin to an impenetrable wall with no gaps.
"This domain isn't made of just a bunch of summoned swords with my world energy or a formation that will stay active for a short while.
As the name says… the swords will be infinite as long as I'm alive." said Kahn/Byakuya sternly.
"And given how all of them are made from a superior version of the s.p.a.ce force… even your skill can't last against my swords for long. There's a saying…" spoke Kahn in a domineering tone as he looked down upon Ryuken.
"No matter how strong a defense, a stronger offense will always shatter it."
His grim voice echoed as the Hero of s.p.a.ce felt a chill under his body. Ryuken's instincts were telling him not to move a muscle or else, he would die a futile death.
"What hubris. I've fought and won against people 10 times stronger than me. Even if you have a superior skill to mine… you're arrogant to a.s.sume that I'm weaker than you." spoke the Hero of s.p.a.ce, gathering his strength and resolve as he made up his mind to attack Kahn.
But in the following moments, the one-eyed dragon responded in a cold tone.
"The fact that you consider yourself as an equal to me, is being arrogant in itself."
A moment of silence ensued as Byakuya's declaration resounded on the battlefield.
If Ryuken had pride as the Hero of s.p.a.ce, chosen by a literal G.o.d… Byakuya's pride was far above, both in terms of dignity and confidence in himself.
[This ignorant man. He has the galls to disregard me, a chosen Hero, as his opponent… where did he gain such overconfidence?] he questioned himself.
"I guess talking with you is pointless. Let's let our weapons showcase who's truly superior." spoke the Hero of s.p.a.ce as his katana was directed at Byakuya.
Swoos.h.!.+
Swoos.h.!.+
Clatter!
Millions of Muramasas joined together as Ryuken made his move and signaled his wave of s.p.a.ce blades to attack Byakuya.
Soon, thousands of the s.p.a.ce blades created a ma.s.sive serpentine figure, with bright violet eyes and ma.s.sive 5-meter-long fangs.
Over a hundred of these ma.s.sive 50-meter-long snakes charged at Byakuya's location in the sky and the onlookers could feel the murderous aura they revealed even from 30 kilometers away.
Shoot!
Shoot!
Like missiles, these numerous snakes slithered and attacked Byakuya, targeting him with full fury.
And just as they came close to him…
BANG!!
Shockwaves reverberated in the surroundings as a ma.s.sive wall made of millions of Muramasas appeared in between.
Not only could a single snake made of s.p.a.ce blades not pa.s.s, but half of them were destroyed from the collision alone.
But things didn't just end here.

In mere moments, the shattered s.p.a.ce blades were encapsulated by Kahn's cosmic aether and then all these blades became another replica of Muramasa themselves.
Stunned!
Even Ryuken was stupefied after looking at this phenomenon.
"Within my Mugen no Ken no Ryōiki… any form of s.p.a.ce force, world energy, elemental attacks, magic formations or laws of nature that clash against my katanas…
Become my weapons themselves. And that is why I call it the Domain of Infinite Swords." spoke Kahn/Byakuya in a calm tone with a slightly mischievous smirk.
BOOM!!
He no longer gave Ryuken time to retreat and strategize. All of his swords quickly started targeting and clas.h.i.+ng against the ones summoned by the Hero of s.p.a.ce.
BOOM!!
Bang!!
Shockwaves after shockwaves erupted and shook the battlefield, raising ma.s.sive clouds of s.p.a.ce force and coloring the sky blue and violet from their clash.
The billions of Muramasas not only protected Kahn but also acted as a cage to stop the Hero of s.p.a.ce from advancing while crus.h.i.+ng his skill fervently.
Kahn didn't even move a finger or make a gesture yet all the swords attacked as if they had a consciousness of their own.
Plenty of these swords gathered, turned into a Loong (Chinese Dragons), and started devouring the ma.s.sive violet snakes.
And in mere seconds, the absorbed snakes turned into Kahn's Loongs as well.
Instead of posing a threat, Ryuken's own attack skill was feeding and empowering Kahn's domain of infinite swords.
"Your blade will never reach me like that." spoke Kahn in a condescending but also disappointed tone, as if he was bored of playing with the little hero in front of him.
If only Ryuken knew that he, the Hero of s.p.a.ce, was being completely dominated and toyed around by Kahn, the Hero of Darkness… his mind would lose all rationality with the shock itself.
After 10 minutes of this intense clash… Ryuken took a deep breath as most of his skill was now destroyed.
"Looks like there is no choice," said the Hero of s.p.a.ce and his countenance turned heavy.
He gathered all the remaining blades into his katana, creating a ma.s.sive 100-meter-long blade of s.p.a.ce force.
BOOM!!
Ryuken's aura erupted once more as he gathered all the s.p.a.ce force within his body and concentrated it within his blade.
Woos.h.!.+
As Ryuken swung his katana, leaving an afterimage behind, he charged at Byakuya with all his might and quickly reached the enemy who stood 10 kilometers away.
Despite having only a second left to defend himself, Kahn did not move or even try to defend himself.
Slas.h.!.+
All it took with a microsecond as the Hero of s.p.a.ce cut down his opponent.
BOOM!!
A ma.s.sive explosion ruptured the very fabric of reality, as the Hero of s.p.a.ce unleashed his deadliest attack yet—an a.s.sault charged with the pure, lethal intent to end his opponent. The force of his strike carved through existence itself, sending a shockwave of destruction so powerful that it seemed to tear the world asunder.
High above, the dark clouds split, parting like curtains to reveal a path of devastation stretching as far as the eye could see. On the ground below, mountains and valleys alike were cleaved in two, leaving a gaping scar across the landscape that extended for ten kilometers. It was as if nature itself had yielded to the overwhelming power of the Hero's wrath.
The onlookers, including Omega, stood in stunned silence, their mouths agape at the spectacle of cataclysmic annihilation unfolding before them. No one had antic.i.p.ated such an extreme display of power, and the awe in their eyes betrayed a mixture of terror and respect.
But amidst the debris and echoing silence, Ryuken stood immobilized, his expression frozen in shock. His wide, disbelieving eyes seemed unable to process the enormity of what had transpired.
Shatter!
Crumble!
Because Ryuken's most powerful and lethal sword attack, the 100-meter-long long blade was suddenly stopped and shattered.
Kahn appeared in front of Ryuken, completely unscathed. However, the most shocking part wasn't him remaining unharmed. Rather the fact that Kahn stopped the Hero of s.p.a.ce's most powerful strike and his katana…
With his forefinger!
