Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

After taking a few bites, Conan ran to the bathroom, turned on his tracking glasses, and began eavesdropping.

"To be honest, I was quite shocked when I learned of your existence. A swordsman who is not even twenty years old is truly amazing. I was even more excited after meeting you. I think this must be a blessing from heaven to the Swordsman Association. Otherwise, how could such a powerful swordsman be born in this era?"

Then Miyazaki Yu's voice came through.

"You flatter me, President. I am just one of the many seekers of the Dao."

Kawakami Gensai chuckled and said, "You don't need to be modest. I now have an accurate assessment of your strength. Your overall strength is comparable to mine, and your physical body is extremely powerful. You also possess spiritual power."

Although your swordsmanship is still somewhat inferior to mine, for you, it's only a matter of time before you catch up."

Conan was also surprised when he heard this.

"What this old man said is right. Miyazaki Yu is young and has a strong body. He has a stronger explosive power and sustained combat power, just like the young athletes. Compared with the veterans, they may lack experience, but they have better physical fitness and have a clear advantage."

At this moment, the conversation between the two resumed.

"However, this old man still has a lot to teach you. The path I have explored and developed over the past sixty or seventy years is enough to help you avoid detours and move towards a deeper level. Are you willing to learn?"

"Huh? This old man wants to teach that guy his swordsmanship too? Wouldn't that make that guy even stronger?"

However, Miyazaki Yu pondered for a long time.

"No, President, although I really want to learn your swordsmanship, I will not follow your path. The path you have paved is only suitable for yourself. Even a detour is still a path. If you keep looking for shortcuts and taking a path that others have already walked, then the limits of those who came before you will become your own limits."

The voice on the other end seemed extremely surprised, but then burst into laughter, which sounded very gratified.

"That's right, that's right. As the saying goes, those who learn from me live, those who imitate me die. In the basic stage of swordsmanship, it is not wrong to learn from others. Just like learning calligraphy, in the beginning, you must trace the handwriting of the masters of the past."

However, simply imitating the works of past masters will only allow you to reach their level at best. To develop your own style, you need to study and create new fonts on your own.

Conan was also shocked, and then he admired him.

This applies to any field. To reach a deeper level, one must first have the confidence and courage to reject the work of predecessors. Both are indispensable.

Detectives are the same; they admire Sherlock Holmes, but not blindly. Times are changing, and new methods of crime are constantly emerging, requiring them to learn more.

"In that case, I can rest assured... internal organs... sword essence..."

Conan vaguely heard these sounds, but they suddenly disappeared and could no longer be heard.

"Did I get stepped on? That's so unlucky!"

Just then, a voice suddenly came through the earpiece.

"Hmph, you brat, how dare you eavesdrop! If you dare eavesdrop again, you're going to get a bad backside!"

Chapter 293 Internal Organs and Sword Courage

"What? We've been discovered!"

Conan was startled. How could they be discovered like this?

However, considering that this guy is no longer within the realm of humanity, it's only natural that he possesses extraordinary observational skills.

But the more I thought about it, the more frustrated I became. I had actually watched helplessly as such a freak appeared beside me.

The fact that you can spot this is making you less and less human!

On the square, Kawakami Gensai laughed heartily.

"That kid seems quite interesting; he even left behind a listening device. Does he want to hear the old man's lecture too?"

Miyazaki Yu gritted his teeth, pinched the bug with his fingers, and the entire bugging device instantly turned to dust.

"Please excuse my presumption, senior. This is a precocious and restless young man. I'll deal with him when we get back!"

In an instant, a thousand ways to torment him flashed through his mind. He was determined to take advantage of Xiaolan's absence and beat this thieving brat who liked to eavesdrop!

He could even picture the miserable state the other person would look in after being hung up.

The old man smiled and said, "Let's continue. Do you understand what I just said?"

At this moment, Miyazaki Yu was also greatly shocked.

"Although I already knew, I never expected that the so-called Sword Saint would be like this."

At this point, we need to go back to what the old man had just said.

"Miyazaki boy, you have now reached the superior level of swordsmanship. In terms of skill, you are not much inferior to me. Moreover, I am old and frail now, and in terms of physical strength and blood, I am far inferior to young people. But do you know why my sword energy is far stronger than yours?"

The root cause is that my body underwent a process of sword intent regurgitation, resulting in the birth of new flesh and blood, which can be seen as an independent organ. This organ is called the Sword Gallbladder!

After creating the Mimicry Technique, Miyazaki Yu vaguely sensed that once he reached a higher level in swordsmanship, he would need to begin modifying himself.

The reason he valued APTX-4869 was because it was his backup plan, in case cultivation couldn't grant him immortality.

This medicine is his hope to regain his youth when he gets old; his goal is immortality.

Unexpectedly, this method of self-transformation had already been attempted by predecessors and made great progress, even resulting in the direct creation of new organs!

This must be the reason why an aging body can regain its vitality!

Or rather, those legendary stories are all true!

For example, according to legend, when the Buddha was old, all his teeth had fallen out, but in his old age, he was rejuvenated and grew forty teeth.

These may all be facts that have happened in the past!

"This matter is actually a secret, because since ancient times, very few people have been able to reach this level. Even in many legends, those who have reached the pinnacle of power only achieved this level when they were almost at the end of their lives."

Moreover, this process is extremely dangerous. It involves constantly stimulating the body with sword energy. To put it simply, you can think of sword energy as a vaccine. It is non-toxic and harmless in itself, but it can stimulate the body to produce antibodies.

As the body gradually adapts, special cultivation methods can be used to gradually aggregate the proliferating tissues produced by the body, allowing a new organ to slowly 'grow' within the body—this new organ is the Sword Gallbladder!

Even though Miyazaki Yu was an extremely daring guy, he still felt a shiver run through his body after hearing this.

Were the ideas of these ancient powerful figures already this insane?

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. In ancient times, with low productivity, people were willing to try anything crazy just to survive.

Many so-called genius ideas are actually the result of countless people piling up mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Trial and error is always the best way to find the right answer; who knows, it might just work!

Therefore, it's not surprising that those powerful figures in ancient times, who would stop at nothing to become even stronger, eventually found this method.

However, this method has obviously undergone countless accumulations and evolutions before it has become a relatively mature approach.

"Once the sword core is formed, it will undergo some very wonderful changes. It can nourish life force and contain blood and qi, and it can also warm the sword intent and sword qi, nurturing countless sword qi within the sword core, producing countless wonderful changes!"

Miyazaki Yu was also deeply shocked. He suddenly realized that this was definitely a new path!

If I could also generate a sword gall within my body, then the quality of that sword gall would far surpass that of all the powerful figures throughout history!

This is Miyazaki Yu's confidence. In terms of true combat strength, the old man in front of him has definitely reached the pinnacle of all the sword saints in Japan. This is not blind faith, but an accurate judgment.

Just as the old man judged, the advantages of his upbringing and the abundant resources of the Sword Masters Association had actually brought him to the pinnacle of swordsmanship throughout history.

The concept of "sword courage" has always existed only in the minds of sword saints. Even if someone were lucky enough to achieve it, they would already be at their wits' end.

Do you want to learn its secrets?

Miyazaki Yu was also deeply moved; it was a yearning for life, a yearning for greater strength.

Moreover, he understood that this method could only be learned by him; for other swordsmen, learning it would almost certainly mean certain death.

"Kawakami-senpai, of course I want to learn something so precious, but I want to know what price I have to pay. To get something, you have to pay a price. I want to know if I can pay such a price."

Kawakami Gensai slowly wiped the smile off his face.

"You are very good. Any swordsman who knows this path would find it difficult to control his inner desires, but you have been able to control your heart. That is indeed impressive."

If you want to learn, I can teach you, and I can only teach you. Otherwise, once I die, the methods that embody the wisdom of countless predecessors will disappear with my death. This is because such methods cannot be put into words, but can only be experienced. Moreover, everyone's body is different. Even if you learn them, you will need a lot of time to adjust the methods and gradually adapt them to your own body.

Moreover, I do have one request, which is the inheritance. The Sword Master Association is the result of the hard work of generations of sword masters. I cannot let the Sword Master Association disappear. Just promise me this.

This requirement is quite simple. With Miyazaki Yu's current abilities, as time goes on and his influence gradually spreads, he can become the second pillar supporting the Sword Masters Association. It's just a matter of time.

Moreover, he did not impose any moral constraints, such as prohibiting harming the innocent or doing bad things, because there was no need for them.

Those who achieve great things in swordsmanship and reach the level of a sword master are all people with unwavering determination and a relentless spirit.

They each have their own unique principles that will not change because of any threats or promises.

This is their way!

Every strong person has their own path, which is actually the worldview and values ​​of an ordinary person. However, while ordinary people can adjust these things at any time, these martial arts masters follow their true nature and will not change easily.

The further one goes in the path of martial arts, the more determined one becomes, so the only thing that can restrain them is their own heart.

"Let's go. I'll teach you the basics first, so you can prepare. I look forward to the day you succeed."

Chapter 294 The Coerced Phantom Thief Kid

A light drizzle fell on the road in the early morning. In such restless weather, this drizzle added a touch of coolness, which brought a sense of joy.

Good morning, everyone!

"Ah, look! It's Kaito! He's so cool!"

"Good morning, Kaito."

The campus was filled with youthful girls, all greeting him warmly. This youthful atmosphere was truly delightful.

Even Kaito Kuroba thoroughly enjoyed this atmosphere.

In particular, many pretty girls will give you small gifts and various snacks, instantly filling you with happiness and making it another energetic day.

The other male students watching couldn't help but bite their handkerchiefs and shed tears of 'happiness'.

"That Kaito Kuroba guy, he already has Aoko, and he's still flirting with other girls. I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"

A chubby boy was about to rush forward and die when his good friend stopped him.

"Are you out of your mind? This is Kaito Kuroba! Do you want to experience the feeling of flying like Kuroda from the next class? Or do you want to be hung on the wall like Nakawa, waiting for the school to rescue you?"

That guy is just as terrifying as a karate captain, so don't mess with him!

The chubby boy was instantly jolted awake, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

Offending those muscular Taekwondo practitioners might result in a beating, which I can handle, but offending a magician would be a much bigger problem.

To die in a gang fight is a lifelong disgrace. I don't want to end up hanging in mid-air like a sausage, after all, this guy's record is just too terrifying.
