Compared to the skeleton who takes pleasure in killing the weak, Uesugi Tetsuya has a certain fondness for the wax figure whose mind is full of muscles and who is always thinking about fighting.

Decided.

The wax figure can be summoned directly and controlled with the soul imprint after a while, while the skeleton can be purified and then summoned in blank form. I drooled when I healed this thing.

After all, the wax figure's combat power is probably not much different from that of Nioh in his Nioh form, except that he doesn't have as many tricks up his sleeve or the ability to save his life.

Moreover, it is not too impulsive and has excellent growth potential.

Such loyal subordinates are not easy to find.

After putting away the wooden sign, Uesugi Tetsuya spoke.

"Two feet."

"Does Lord Che have any orders?"

Erchi, who had been obediently following orders and had not shown himself, appeared behind Uesugi Tetsuya and grabbed his clothes.

"Go to Edo Castle and find demons to kill yourself. Get some training."

"Yes, sir!"

After rubbing against Uesugi Tetsuya, Nissaku, who knew the importance of training and strength, didn't linger and instead chose to go in the opposite direction from Uesugi Tetsuya.

In the time that followed, Uesugi Tetsuya, who possessed the All-Powerful Furnace Core, transformed into a super cleaner.

He wandered freely through the streets and alleys of Edo, sweeping away demons, monsters, and evil spirits.

As long as a notification with the name of a demon pops up, he immediately raises his hand and unleashes a beam of spiritual energy with a faint arc of electricity.

Below three and a half stars, it will be gone in an instant if it shows its face.

I drove through the game like a pro, and notifications of Soul Ashes being added to my account kept flooding the screen. It was incredibly satisfying.

Until, at the end of a spotless, now rounded street, Uesugi Tetsu encountered that utterly familiar, flushed face.

Fang Xiangshi.

The samurai, who didn't even look at him directly, still had a nonchalant expression in his slanted eyes.

Just like the beginning.

Chapter 319 Even the gods and spirits of the Fangxiang clan bleed! With 17,000 points of soul ash, Sheng Hai revealed himself!

Uesugi Tetsu stopped in his tracks, and all 50 eyes of the Hyakume Oni, which were routinely patrolling the surroundings, turned to Fang Xiangshi, who was leaning against the thatched hut and sipping wine from a gourd.

Did Fang Xiangshi actively seek him out to kill him?

Just like last time with the nameless swordsman?

No.

Different.

Uesugi Tetsuya, who had activated 90 of the Hundred Eyes of the Demon, did not detect even the slightest bit of killing intent from Hosōji.

You must know that under the gaze of 90 Hundred-Eyed Demon Eyes that have opened their "All-Seeing Eyes", apart from a prodigy like Ririko whose sword heart has reached the other shore, even demons and gods cannot lie!

If Fang Xiangshi had a ulterior motive, he would definitely discover it.

No.

So, Fang Xiangshi was just standing here before, and it just so happened that he was discovered by himself after he finished cleaning the street.

Without doing anything, they avoided the "omniscient field" opened by the 50 Hundred-Eyed Demon Eyes.

He truly deserves to be called one of the best among ghosts and gods.

Uesugi Tetsu glanced expressionlessly at the notifications that had popped up together.

—Just now, he kindly cleaned up this muddy street and received 620 Soul Ashes and some useless little fashion trash from the enthusiastic people.

Pattering.

Fine rain fell, and the damp air permeated every corner of Edo Castle.

Within an hour or two, the sky above Edo Castle, which had previously been empty, was once again filled with layers of leaden-black clouds.

That's what Edo Castle was like.

Without sunshine, the rain made the muddy ground.

Amid Uesugi Tetsu's solemn expression and Fang Xiangshi's nonchalant attitude, the once empty, arched road had accumulated a considerable amount of water, and the increasingly large raindrops pattered against it.

Uesugi Tetsuya did not choose to fire another shot into the sky to disperse the dark clouds.

Fang Xiangshi is unlikely to fall for this.

Moreover, he had been blasting his way here for so long that he had consumed about half of his spiritual energy.

As for why it took 21 streets and countless alleys to use up this little bit of spiritual power, one reason is that Uesugi Tetsu has a spirit control technique, so his recovery speed is really fast.

Secondly, there is the Wanling Furnace Core.

Inject a little spiritual power into it, and the furnace core will return a hundred times your power. Moreover, the amount of spiritual power injected will unleash the same amount of power, with absolutely no upper limit.

It can only be said that the one who controls the upper limit of the output of the Wanling Furnace Core is indeed worthy of the blood of the Calamity, it is terrifying.

After standing there for a while, and waiting until most of his spiritual energy had recovered, Uesugi Che prepared to greet Fang Xiangshi.

He removed his hand from the hilt of his sword and pointed at Fang Xiangshi.

"—There's a flaw!"

A hoarse, viscous, and furious voice suddenly exploded from the thatched hut that hadn't yet collapsed, shattering a large patch of the rain curtain.

"Men, follow me! Kill the source of this pollution!"

Amidst a massive tremor and numerous smaller ones, hoarse, frantic, and hateful roars suddenly rose and fell.

What the hell?

Uesugi Tetsu turned his head in confusion and saw a long, narrow label hanging in mid-air.

——【Leader of the Contaminated Homeless (3 stars)】.

Behind this label, a dozen or so similar individuals, mostly around two stars in rank, emerged.

Why didn't Hyakume's all-seeing field of vision find these hiding guys before?

But the next moment, when Uesugi Tetsuya actually turned his gaze to them, he understood.

Because these homeless people, who were charging at him with broken swords and clubs, were almost all covered in cold, damp mud...

No, perhaps it should be said that they have turned into mud, becoming part of the countless muds of Edo Castle.

No wonder I didn't notice them before; I must have mistaken them for mud and swept them away.

"baffling."

Uesugi Tetsu had no patience for these homeless people who probably couldn't even speak properly.

He raised his hand, and under the influence of the Myriad Spirits Furnace Core, a purplish-black lightning bolt the thickness of a thumb burst forth from his fingertip. Guided by the Spirit Control Technique, the lightning bolt transformed into eighteen straight beams of light in mid-air, piercing through the foreheads of each homeless person in an instant.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...

Those homeless people who had rushed in with boundless hatred and rage suddenly fell from mid-air into the puddle as if their computers had crashed.

died.

Then, fine arcs of electricity lit up the mud that still seemed to want to wriggle, turning it into piles of dead earth.

Seeing that all the prompts had been raised without exception, Uesugi Tetsu looked at Fang Xiangshi again.

At this moment, the man with the flushed face finally put away the wine jug and looked over with some interest.

The hoarse voice cut through the rain and landed clearly in Uesugi Tetsuya's ears.

"You killed the wax figure and the skeleton, didn't you?"

It's clearly a question, but it's being expressed in a declarative tone.

"So what?"

Uesugi Tetsu raised an eyebrow, all his methods ready to be unleashed.

To his surprise, Fang Xiangshi nodded and extended an invitation to him: "You're not bad, would you like to become my subordinate?"

ha?

Even Uesugi Tetsu was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this.

He narrowed his eyes indifferently.

Fang Xiangshi... has he forgotten the throat-slitting gesture he once made to him?

Was he still too weak back then?

Also normal.

Even now, Uesugi Tetsuya, who had just learned the secrets of the Mumei Sword, was not worth mentioning.

Very well... This time, let Fang Xiangshi never forget it.

Thinking of this, Uesugi Tetsu raised a finger.

"Within one year."

He said, "Within a year, you either kneel down and submit to me, or I will cut off your head."

There is no third option.

Through the rain, Fang Xiangshi chuckled lightly, "Interesting, quite interesting."

"What if I kill you right now?"

"You can try."

Uesugi Tetsu chuckled coldly. So what if he was killed? His first blood was from being beheaded by Fang Xiangshi, a memory he still vividly remembers.

As they spoke, the core of the Myriad Spirits Furnace in the darkness was already immersed in spiritual energy.

The Zhou Tian Flame Armor, now fully connected with the nine Flame Seeds, was launched, forming a semi-transparent black-red track in front of Uesugi Tetsuya.

With a deafening roar that seemed to shatter the entire world, all available spiritual energy was transformed by the Myriad Spirit Furnace Core into surging yet tranquil thunder.

It was in Uesugi Tetsuya's hand before he placed the Zhou Tian Yan Jia in the orbit.

Snapped.

He snapped his fingers softly.

Then, the lightning, so bright white that it contained not a trace of impurity, surged violently into the orbit, and was then compressed and fixed into a pure beam of lightning as thick as an arm.

A beam of pure white light illuminated the heavens and the earth.

If this move were used in a seeding match, Uesugi Tetsuya would be certain that no one could stop it except for Minamoto Shizumizu, who could teleport.

Just as Uesugi Tetsu was watching intently, the bolt of lightning that had already caused the core of the Myriad Spirits Furnace within his body to self-destruct within minutes unexpectedly split in two.

It pierced straight through Fang Xiangshi's sides, even refreshing several kill notifications in front of Uesugi Che.

how did you do that?

Under the gaze of the All-Seeing Eye, Fang Xiangshi didn't even move, yet he split the lightning that could almost annihilate any being below the level of ghosts and gods in two.

Are they different from ordinary ghosts and spirits...?

In the silence, all 90 eyes of Uesugi Tetsuya's Hyakume-ki wailed, and crimson tears of blood gushed out.

Therefore, he captured the trajectory of Fang Xiangshi's journey!

quick! It's so fast!

If Uesugi Tetsuya's speed is a hundred meters in an instant, then Fang Xiangshi doesn't even need to use a hundredth of an instant!

The area of ​​sorrow of parting, which had already been spread by Kaga Kiyomitsu, and the lightning at its edge were shattered together, and the Zhou Tian Yan Armor, which interacted with the Qi circulation, was neatly cut open like an eggshell.

Tiger and Leopard Thunder roared deep within Uesugi Tetsuya's flesh and bones, and the 90 Hundred-Eyed Demon Eyes that transformed into the Eyes of Mindfulness pressed their immense psychic power onto Fang Xiangshi. At this moment, the vast four-colored sea of ​​qi boiled up completely without regard for the cost.

The mask of the Red Hannya, stripped of its disguise, was moved onto Uesugi Tetsu's face, and the secrets of the Natural Rishin-ryu style bloomed and then contracted in an instant!

The evil spirit is silent, yet its majesty is evident!

Three sudden bursts converge into one point!
