Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

He didn't show it on his face, but he was extremely nervous inside.

If Uesugi Kiyoshi were to suffer a severe blow because of his decision, he would be consumed by guilt and self-blame for the rest of his life.

That was his successor, his last disciple.

The leader of the Shinkage-ryu swordsman took a deep breath, nodded with a somewhat gloomy look in his eyes, and was about to say something.

Before he could even speak, Uesugi Kiyoshi, who had been sitting calmly, suddenly opened his eyes.

After exchanging a glance with his beloved student, Kamiizumi Hidekawa was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed.

What was that look in his eyes?

Three parts anger, three parts resentment, three parts sorrow, and one part rationality that restrained the outburst of emotions converged into those eyes filled with sword intent.

Kamiizumi Hidekawa didn't know the inside story, but he knew it had worked!

This is a common phenomenon after the awakening of the sword heart: emotions are mobilized to the limit, thereby breaking through to the extraordinary.

Of course, Uesugi Kiyoshi did this simply because he recalled too many memories.

The anger stemmed from his unexplained death.

His resentment stemmed from the near-total annihilation of his hundred demons.

The sorrowful sound was filled with the memory of Ah Chai and Xing, who died tragically.

His final moment of calm allowed him to distinguish between the real world and illusion.

In his hazy state, his consciousness was still somewhat blurred.

All I heard was my master's familiar voice.

"Qing! Draw your sword, use Murasame!"

Trusting his master, Uesugi Kiyoshi stood up and casually took Murasame in his hand.

The sword is drawn, the chest is filled with energy, the sword light is like frost, and the sword energy is like a rainbow.

Naturally, every cell in Uesugi Kiyoshi's body contributed a sliver of life force, which, under the control of his intense mental power, converged into a surge of energy that broke through the limits and entered the extraordinary realm, and was poured into the Murasame sword.

The clashing of swords and blades was like the howling of wind and rain.

Murasame seemed to be responding to Uesugi Kiyoshi, trembling incessantly, with continuous sword cries echoing through the air.

Instinctively, Uesugi Kiyoshi drew his sword.

In his heart, he was still reliving everything that had just happened.

Memories of "sword energy" and "qi" surged through his mind as if from another world.

The mighty Lord of a Hundred Demons, who slayed all enemy chieftains with a single sword, has truly mastered both of these skills.

Although this power could not be fully passed down due to certain reasons, what Uesugi Kiyoshi received was more than enough.

"The mobilization of emotions, the drive of strength, and the awareness to forge ahead without hesitation."

"Mixed together".

"Slash out!"

Close your eyes, then open them.

In the blink of an eye.

The sword, like a fierce wind, came whistling in.

The misty village rain had a close encounter with the sword-testing stone, which was neither gold nor jade.

It wasn't as hard as I'd imagined, nor did it manage to cut in half easily.

That "Sword Testing Stone," a magical stone that could sense the strength of a swordsman's awakened sword heart, shattered into dust the moment it came into contact with Uesugi Kiyoshi's Murasame.

As the smoke and dust cleared, Uesugi Kiyoshi slashed his sword at the stone path in front of him. The earth trembled and cracked, revealing a fissure tens of meters long and half a meter wide before everyone's eyes.

Liu Shengjian nimbly dodged to the side, his mouth agape in disbelief.

An uproar erupted from the phone in his hand.

Yagyu Teppei was just drinking tea when he saw this scene and couldn't help but spit a mouthful of tea onto Kamiizumi Hidekawa's clothes.

Uezumi Hidekawa didn't care about that anymore. He excitedly stood up, muttered something under his breath, and suddenly burst into loud, hearty laughter.

The sword masters who were watching were also in an uproar.

"What is this?"

"The testing stone shattered?!"

"Hey, Yagyu, this isn't some kind of defective product, is it?"

Yagyu Teppei turned around and spat, his face contorted.

"Shut up! The sword-testing stones we use are all imported from the Celestial Empire. For the past thirty years, extraordinary swordsmen have used sword-testing stones to test the results of their sword heart awakening, and so far, there has never been a mistake."

"Ito, tell me, what is the best existing record?"

Kengo Ito shook his head, his eyes wide as saucers.

"If I remember correctly, the best performer in our generation was Brother Shangquan. He pierced a three-foot-long test stone with his sword, penetrating it one foot and eight inches deep."

“Your youngest son, Lian, is indeed exceptionally talented. He can break a two-foot-four-inch stone with a single sword strike, which is an unprecedented achievement.”

"."

"Can"

"What kind of monster disciple did that old bastard, Kamiizumi Hidekawa, find?"

"Three hours of sword heart awakening is fine."

"He shattered the testing stone into dust with a single sword strike! This is simply unheard of! Just how powerful must his awakened sword heart be?!"

Kamiizumi Hidekawa waved his hand excitedly, took a few quick breaths, his face flushed, and his smile became even more smug.

"Hmph, I knew it. Qing never disappoints me."

"When I brought this up before, you all laughed at me for talking big, but what about now?"

"I said."

"If there is anyone in this country who can reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship right now, it must be Qing!"

"Who else thinks I'm bragging?"

"Let's go and try cutting through a testing stone!"

Amidst the somewhat boisterous praises of the swordsmen, Uesugi Kiyoshi exhaled a breath of stale air and opened his bright eyes.

His eyes had returned to calm, his sword intent was restrained, and his expression revealed no joy or anger.

He sheathed Murasame, bowed slightly, and paid his respects to the phone screen held high above his head.

"Master, I have succeeded."

As he spoke, he extended a finger.

The slender fingertips, with their three-inch sharp edges piercing through the body, shimmered with a faint yet undeniably present milky-white light.

Then, he flicked his hand away.

The three-inch sword beam struck the artificial hill not far away, shearing off half of the mountain peak.

Upon seeing this, the swordsmen on the other side erupted in another round of shouts and curses.

"Kamiizumi Hidekawa!"

"Is your apprentice even human?"

"Having just awakened his sword heart, he can already release sword energy from his body and kill someone from a hundred paces away?"

"."

"I'm not as skilled at this move as he is now!"

Chapter 268 Envy

Uesugi Kiyoshi heard this but took it as just a joke.

Putting everything else aside, when his master demonstrated his sword energy to him, he saw it clearly.

Although the destructive power is incomparable, his master's control over sword energy is something he can't even dream of now.

Every gesture exudes an aura surpassing that of a sword; in an instant, one can travel a thousand miles.

It's somewhat like the sword immortal techniques in Chinese fantasy novels, at least visually striking.

His guess was correct. Birds of a feather flock together. The swordsmen who were familiar with Kamiizumi Hidekawa were basically all known as sword masters, or at least the leaders of a certain school. They were powerful, experienced, and seasoned veterans who had been struggling on the path to transcendence for ten or even several decades.

Their overreaction stemmed from the sheer brilliance of Uesugi Kiyoshi's sword strike.

To put it bluntly, this move doesn't need any refinement; in actual combat, it's a decisive killing move.

It was not at all like the moves that a newly awakened young swordsman would use casually.

"Okay, shut up."

"Hmph, if I could dominate you back then, my disciple can dominate your little brats!"

"Cheping, how does my last disciple compare to your youngest son?"

Kamiizumi Hidekawa imperceptibly wiped the sweat from his palms on his clothes, shoved himself around a few times, and looked around, his eyes and brows overflowing with pride and joy—he hadn't been this happy when he first awakened his sword heart.

Then, he immediately turned his criticism on his old friend.

Yagyu Teppei stared blankly at Uesugi Kiyoshi, shaking his head incredulously.

"It's true that Lian is talented, but after he awakened his sword heart, he still had to cultivate for several months before he could initially master the use of sword energy."

“Someone of your apprentice’s skills is definitely qualified to be called a swordsman.”

"If I remember correctly, the standard by which the officials in Kyoto judged whether an extraordinary swordsman had stepped into the realm of sword master was that the sword energy remained condensed and did not disperse even after leaving the body by a hundred paces, thus maintaining its lethality."

"Those of you here should have all experienced it. That sword light just now was definitely more powerful than mine was back then."

"You old geezer, what incredible luck you had to find such a treasure!"
