I assembled the strongest swordsman group.

Before Matsumoto Tsukumo could even let out a scream, he was cleaved in two!

This is not the end.

It's like cutting a radish with too much force; if you use too much force, the cut piece of radish will often fly off—at this moment, Matsumoto Tsukumo's severed body is like that piece of radish!

Qing Deng's attack was too fast and too fierce, and the force it unleashed was too ferocious and domineering, causing Matsumoto Tsukumo's upper body to fly into the air! The height was more than nine feet!

His lower body remained standing, blood gushing from the incision.

Amidst a rain of blood and under the watchful eyes of the crowd, half of Matsumoto Tsukumo's body flew to its highest point before tracing a parabolic arc and landing on the rooftop a dozen meters away.

Although the time was not very long, with the help of his comrades, Matsumoto Tsukumo did manage to entangle with Aoto for more than ten seconds.

Therefore, at the same moment Matsumoto Tsukumo was killed, a cold system voice rang in Aoto's mind:

[Ding! Talent detected]

Successfully copied the talent: "Steel Bones +3"

[Talent Introduction: Exceptionally resilient bones]

[Ding! Detected that the host already possesses a talent of the same type]

[Ding! Initiating talent fusion]

[Ding! Talent fusion successful]

[Upgrade from "Steel Bones +4" to "Steel Bones +7"]

Qing Deng's attack stunned the entire audience!

The people present, who had just been optimistically thinking that "Niou is at the end of his rope," were now all speechless and utterly shocked.

Not only did they cut a person in half, but they also sent half of the person's body into the sky!

What terrifying power! What amazing swordsmanship!

For a moment, the scene was completely silent.

No one dared to approach Qingdeng anymore; they all turned into clay sculptures and wooden statues.

A similar scene also occurred during the Second Battle of Sekigahara.

Qingdeng's fierce act of "slashing people into the sky" intimidated both sides and reversed the course of the battle.

Compared to last time, Qing Deng's strike was even more terrifying! It instilled even greater fear in the enemy!

After killing Matsumoto Tsukumo, Aoto kept his head down in front of his chest, maintaining the posture of wielding his sword.

At this moment, he lowered his sword stance and coldly surveyed the crowd.

"What's wrong? Why aren't you attacking?"

With that, Qing Deng's elbows snapped open once more! A purplish-black blade of light blotted out the sky!

Vairocana drew a fleeting arc in mid-air, severing the bodies of the four people.

This included a guy who, like Matsumoto Tsukumo, successfully engaged in combat with Aoto for more than ten seconds.

[Ding! Talent detected]

[Successfully replicated talent: "Godspeed"]

[Talent Description: Superior reflexes.]

[Ding! Detected that the host already possesses a talent of the same type]

[Ding! Initiating talent fusion]

[Ding! Talent fusion successful]

["Speed+6" ability upgrade - "Speed+7"]

Qing Deng turned his blade around and swung it again, severing the bodies of four more people.

[Ding! Talent detected]

[Successfully Replicating the Talent: "Magnificent Muscles"]

[Talent Description: Exceptionally strong and resilient muscles.]

[Ding! Detected that the host already possesses a talent of the same type]

[Ding! Initiating talent fusion]

[Ding! Talent fusion successful]

[Upgrade from "Muscular Strength +6" to "Muscular Strength +7"]

With just two strikes, four people fell to his blade.

Qingdeng's offensive continued relentlessly, with the third, fourth, and fifth strikes... one after another.

One corpse after another fell at Qingdeng's feet, soon piling up into a horrifying mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood!

At the same time, three system voices sounded in his mind:

[Upgrade from "Take Action +1" to "Take Action +3"]

[“Nine Oxen and Two Tigers +3” Ability Upgrade – “Nine Oxen and Two Tigers +4”]

[Upgrade from "Strength +4" to "Strength +5"]

Thus, the "group of experts" that had just successfully entangled Qingdeng was completely wiped out!

There were no sophisticated techniques, no flexible tactics.

Qingdeng simply kept repeating the process of "swinging the knife", "changing direction and swinging the knife again", and "turning the direction back and continuing to swing the knife"!

Such a sword-wielding motion, such efficiency in killing enemies, is truly like mowing grass!

Following his solo incursion into the Qingshui clan's stronghold, this is the second time Qingdeng has activated his eternal talent, "Reversal Dragon."

Based on these two successful experiences, Qing Deng has roughly figured out the conditions for activating the "Reversal Dragon".

They were cornered and their lives were in danger—but that wasn't enough!

The "Dragon of Reversal" can only be successfully activated when one and everything one carries are driven to the brink of despair!

It's truly rare for two eternal talents—"Heartless Child" and "Reversal Dragon"—to activate together.

Compared to the bonuses from "Selflessness" or other states, "Reversal Dragon" primarily provides a boost to one's mental state.

Even though I'm almost completely exhausted, I still feel incredibly energetic!

"Exhaustion" and "excitement" coexist. Although extremely tired, you can still fight with your full physical strength and energy—that's roughly the feeling.

No matter how much you squander it, no matter how exhausted your limbs and bones become, there is always a continuous stream of power flowing out from within your body! It's inexhaustible!

The carved Qingdeng resembles both an indomitable benevolent king and a raging dragon that can destroy everything in its path!

In an instant, he had broken through several lines of defense!

The distance between him and Toranosuke Suzuki was shortened in an instant!

All of this happened too fast.

From the moment Qing Deng suddenly sprang up to the moment he rushed to Suzuki Toranosuke's side, only 7 or 8 seconds had passed.

Such a short time left the men of Mito with no time to react.

Suzuki Toranosuke's expression froze as he watched Aoto suddenly close in on his nose.

Until just now, he had a smug look on his face, as if victory was in sight.

In the blink of an eye, that smugness vanished, replaced by fear and despair.

As he subconsciously reached for the sword at his waist, he hurriedly cried out in a shrill voice:

"you……"

No one knows what he said next.

Because at the very moment he spoke, Qing Deng raised his sword high, assuming the upper right stance.

At that very moment, Vairocana drew a graceful, sharp arc in mid-air—an arc that extended from Toranosuke Suzuki's left shoulder to his right abdomen.

It's another kasaya-giri (a type of Japanese swordsmanship).

He cut the opponent in two again.

Another half of his body flew into the air!

Suzuki Toranosuke's upper body was seen flying into the air! Its height was no less than that of Matsumoto Tsukumo just now!

After slaying the general, Qingdeng took a deep breath and shouted loudly:

"The commander of the Mito army has been slain by Tachibana Aoto!"

At the very moment he finished speaking, there was a loud thud—Suzuki Toranosuke's severed body fell back to the ground.

PS: Activate "Heartless Demon Child" in adversity; activate "Reversal Dragon" in desperate situation; activate "Boundless Hachiman" when turning the tide with a single blow - well, each has its own role, very balanced.

Chapter 984 Aizu Cavalry Strikes! Expanding the Victory! [4500]

The horrified lines of his face were permanently frozen on Toranosuke Suzuki's face.

After killing countless enemies and going through countless hardships, he finally managed to capture the enemy general... At this moment, Qingdeng felt relieved but also extremely annoyed.

It's all because you can run so fast! That's why I've had to work so hard!

Influenced by these negative emotions, Qing Deng swung his sword with a sense of cathartic pleasure.

Therefore, his strike was quite powerful.

As a senior retainer of the Mito Domain and a descendant of a prestigious family, the armor worn by Toranosuke Suzuki was naturally no ordinary item.

Even with such fine armor, it couldn't withstand Qing Deng's blade!

In terms of height, Suzuki Toranosuke's severed body flew even higher than Matsumoto Tsukumo's earlier! It was even more visually striking!
