I became the Lord of the Eternal World in Tokyo.

Let's put the spell scroll aside for now; we can use it when we need it.

The next item is a plain gun.

No, a more accurate term would be "ordinary unpainted gun".

Uesugi Tetsu first gestured to the lower left and upper right corners of the toilet before taking out a dusty box about one meter long from his storage backpack.

["Ordinary Plain Gun" (Special Item)]

[Quality: Ordinary]

Current reserves: 99

[Effect: Generates one base gun of the same quality as a "normal base gun" daily.]

—A samurai does not die unarmed.

That's right, the "ordinary stock gun" is not actually a stock gun.

Instead, it is a box that can store raw guns, generate raw guns daily, and adjust the length of the raw guns that can be taken out at will when they are taken out.

Uesugi Tetsuya unfastened the iron latches on the top and bottom of the box, and then saw a plain gun, less than a meter long, lying in a box made of ordinary wood.

Five white, cheap paper labels were stuck in the center of the gun barrel.

[40cm], [80cm], [150cm], [300cm].

There's also a last blank tag, whose length can be defined by the user.

Because the toilet space was small, Uesugi Tetsu pulled out the "40cm" tag and then took out the plain gun from the box.

There was a snap.

The plain gun, which was originally about one meter long, immediately transformed into a short gun forty centimeters long after leaving the box.

Uesugi Tetsu raised the unremarkable plain gun and examined it closely: "Little Jia, this is quite amazing, isn't it?"

More importantly, this plain gun has no outstanding features whatsoever; in every respect, it is just an ordinary piece of iron.

But it is characterized by its flexibility and large quantity!

Right now, there are a full ninety-nine plain guns in the box, and more will continue to be added!

If the prefix "ordinary unpainted gun" were changed to "excellent unpainted gun," "rare unpainted gun," or even higher...

Uesugi Tetsu licked his lips; the future of this box truly held promise.

Thinking of this, Uesugi Tetsu couldn't help but sigh.

If only Zashiki were my shikigami... With her skills, not to mention the later parts, making a "superb plain spear" would be no problem at all.

But that's impossible.

—If Zashiki had been willing to become his shikigami, she would never have possessed her current exquisite skills, nor would she have been able to effectively enhance the box.

Uesugi Tetsu sighed with some emotion, quite moved.

"We can do it too!"

Hearing the sigh, Kaga Kiyomitsu thought his master was complaining that he couldn't change size at will, so he immediately flew out of his scabbard.

However, it struggled to swing in mid-air for quite a while, but didn't change the length of the blade by even a centimeter.

Unfortunately, the old blacksmith didn't include the "get bigger and smaller" function for Kaga Kiyomitsu when he was coding with his hammer.

Just as Uesugi Tetsu was about to pat and comfort Kaga Kiyomitsu, who was inexplicably feeling down, he suddenly realized that the commotion on the street outside had completely disappeared.

strangeness.

He pushed open the tiny floral window, barely big enough for a head to peek out, and looked out onto the street.

In an instant, Uesugi Tetsuya understood.

Because he saw a figure from behind.

The silhouette of Yuan Jingshui.

—The plain white clothes and the Hotarumaru sword at his waist made him so easy to recognize that Uesugi Tetsuya knew who he was at a glance.

You can't look at that back view for too long...

Uesugi Tetsu quickly looked away, intending to close the window again.

But it's too late.

His calm yet intrigued gaze swept across the residential area, but deliberately lingered on Uesugi Tetsuya's face for a couple of moments.

It's like they're saying hello.

--broken.

Uesugi's face twitched as he slammed the window shut.

I just wanted to see what was going on, but I ended up being caught by Minamoto Shizumi herself.

If Minamoto Shizumi reveals this during a later challenge, then we'll be in big trouble...

Uesugi Tetsu rubbed his temples, not too bothered.

After all, this kind of thing happened too suddenly, catching people a little off guard.

If you can't avoid it, then you'll have to face it head-on.

—Let's just consider it a test before the seeding battle.

After the thought flashed through his mind, Uesugi Tetsu cleared his mind of distractions, closed his eyes, and began to introspectively examine his dantian.

Currently, with the help of the Totsuka Sword fragments, the Qi Sea is evenly matched with the Four-Tailed Fox card, and they coexist peacefully without interfering with each other.

—The amount of internal energy contained in his dantian is about 40% of the internal energy in his body, and his recovery speed is twice as fast as he would be in his normal state.

However, compared to when the debris was first placed inside, the expansion speed of the Qi Sea has slowed down considerably.

It is foreseeable that the rate of expansion of the gas sea will become slower and slower.

Then, we should continue to use a strong medicine to stimulate the Qi Sea so that it doesn't forget its roots!

Uesugi Tetsu's gaze shifted between the [anchor] and the [feather of the Ubume] before finally settling on the anchor.

—That is, the perfectly proportioned, transparent triangular crystal that has already appeared in his palm.

[Effect: Placing it in the Qi Sea will greatly enhance its stability. It will also produce unknown beneficial effects depending on the specific Qi Sea.]

Since that's what the anchor does, there shouldn't be any major problems if we place it in the Qi Sea first.

On the other hand, the feathers of the Guhuoniao... might even get into a fight with the fragments of the Totsuka Sword in the Qi Sea.

Uesugi Tetsuya examined his Qi Sea for a while longer, and only after confirming that he had completely mastered every bit of space and every bit of Qi within it did he move the anchor above his Qi Sea.

Nothing happened.

Neither the fragments of the Totsuka Sword nor the two cards floating in the Qi Sea reacted to the anchor's appearance.

It seems we can just throw it in like that.

As Uesugi Tetsu was thinking this, the large hand of qi that was floating above the sea of ​​qi and holding the small anchor suddenly loosened its grip.

"—Oh oh oh oh oh oh!"

Before the anchor even reached the sea of ​​qi, waves of excited shouts came from outside the window.

"What are you doing?"

Taking a small portion of his attention to the outside world, Uesugi Tetsu first opened the window and glanced out, then picked up his phone and opened the Special Affairs Bureau APP.

His pupils shrank slightly.

[Yiyuan Jingshui, 40th Floor]

Uesugi Tetsu glanced at the time again and fell into deep thought.

He did indeed guess that Yuan Jingshui was able to kill forty layers of his own projection.

I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

In just over ten minutes, she was able to hack her way up from the first floor and kill him.

Uesugi Tetsu looked up, as if he saw the projection annihilated by that dark blade: "You bastard, you couldn't even stop him for half an hour? What a waste..."

Despite this, Uesugi Tetsuya showed no sign of fear or backing down.

On the contrary, they were filled with anticipation.

Shizumi Minamoto, Ryuichi Saito... these are the opponents I will face in the seeding battles in the future, the stronger the better.

What's the fun in defeating the weak?

Only by overwhelming these strong individuals and geniuses can one truly benefit oneself.

That's what makes it more fun.

Uesugi Tetsu smiled and once again focused all his attention on his body.

"Ok?"

Within the Qi Sea, all was calm.

But the anchor has clearly already fallen into it, hasn't it?

Uesugi Tetsu lowered his mind and found that the equilateral triangular crystal was lying steadily at the very bottom of the center of his Qi Sea, emitting a negligible fluorescence.

He tried to move it with his inner energy, but found that he couldn't do it no matter what.

It's as if they've already taken root there.

In other words, the anchor has been attached to his Qi Sea and has taken effect.

But what is the effect?

Apart from the fact that the edge of the two-colored sea of ​​qi had become more relaxed, Uesugi Tetsu couldn't find even the slightest change.

"That's it?"

He suspected that he hadn't figured out the correct way to use the anchor.

However, no notification popped up.

After pondering for a long time, Uesugi Tetsu decided to ask Katsumi again when they met again soon.

As a prominent merchant whose footprints have spread throughout the mortal and present worlds, Sheng Hai must have seen such special items and figured out their uses.

A few minutes later, after several unsuccessful attempts, Uesugi Tetsuya took the Ubume Feather from his backpack and placed it on his Qi Sea.

This jet-black feather is different from the anchor.

As soon as it entered the Qi Sea, the feathers of the Guhuoniao seemed to have some hidden switch activated, and began to swagger out its aura, circling at an extremely fast speed above the Qi Sea.

And a faint shriek emanated from within the feathers.

If you close your eyes, it might even look like a real Ubume patrolling its territory.

The fiery and cursed aura belonging to the Guhuoniao descended, splitting in two and pressing down on the two cards located at the east and west poles of the Qi Sea.

—They want to usurp the throne and become the sole ruler of this Qi Sea.

Uesugi Tetsuya, who was quietly observing this scene, was amused.

This feather of the Guhuoniao is indeed the essence of a great demon; it's quite ambitious.

"But I'm sorry."

Before the two avatar cards could react clearly, Uesugi Tetsu's indifferent voice echoed throughout his Qi Sea.

A blazing white hand of qi condensed from nothingness, grabbing the rapidly spinning feather of the Guhuoniao, causing it to tremble and shake, and attempting to resist.

"—Once you're inside me, if you're a dragon, you'd better coil up for me! If you're a tiger, you'd better lie down for me!"

Soon, the indomitable feathers of the Guhuoniao were forced to quiet down under the suppression of Uesugi Tetsu's powerful hand.

Even if its essence is superb, it is now just a handful of boundless water.

Even those “ambitious” actions just now were merely a remnant of instinct left behind by the great demon Guhuoniao.

The two fingers of the powerful hand pinched the tip of the Guhuoniao feather and flung it into the sea of ​​qi.

Gululu.

Accompanied by the unwilling cry of the Guhuoniao feather and the churning of the Qi Sea, the jet-black feather was embedded into the second empty space of the "Five Elements Rotation Delimitation".
