His expression didn't show, but he was extremely nervous.

If Uesugi Kiyoshi suffered a serious blow because of his decision, he would be trapped in guilt and self-blame for the rest of his life.

That was his successor, his last disciple.

The master swordsman of the Shinkage-ryu took a deep breath, nodded with a gloomy and uncertain look, and was about to say something.

Before he could say anything, he saw Uesugi Kiyoshi, who was sitting calmly, suddenly open his eyes.

After exchanging glances with his beloved disciple, Kamiizumi Hidekawa was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little ecstatic.

What's in that look?

Three parts of anger, three parts of unwillingness, three parts of sadness, and one part of rationality to restrain the emotional outburst, all combined into a pair of eyes filled with sword intent.

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

This is the normal phenomenon after Kenshin awakens, emotions are mobilized to the limit, thus breaking through to the extraordinary.

Of course, Uesugi Kiyoshi was like this only because he recalled too many memories.

The anger was because of his unclear death.

He was unwilling to give in because all the ghosts under his command were killed or injured.

Sorrow rang out for the untimely deaths of Chai and Xing.

The final calmness allowed him to distinguish the difference between the real world and the illusion.

In the haze, his consciousness was still a little fuzzy.

All I heard was the familiar voice of the Master.

"Qing! Draw your sword, use Murasame!"

Out of trust in his master, Uesugi Kiyoshi stood up and took the Murasame in front of him in his hand.

The sword is unsheathed, 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 little bit of life force, and under the control of high-intensity mental power, it gathered into an energy that broke through the boundaries and stepped into the extraordinary, and was injected into Murasame's sword.

The screaming of swords and knives was like the howling of wind and rain.

Murasame seemed to be responding to Uesugi Kiyoshi, trembling constantly, and bursts of sword chanting could be heard continuously.

Instinctively prompted Uesugi Qing to draw his sword.

In his heart, he was still thinking about everything he had just experienced.

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

As the Lord of a Hundred Ghosts, he could kill all the enemy leaders with one sword. He had mastered these two things to perfection.

Although due to certain reasons, this power could not be passed down completely, but what Uesugi Kiyoshi obtained was definitely enough.

"The mobilization of emotions, the drive of strength, and the unstoppable awareness."

“Mixed together.”

"Cut it out!"

Close your eyes, open your eyes.

A wink.

The sword came whistling like a strong wind.

Murasame, who was shrouded in mist, had a close contact with the sword-testing stone that was neither gold nor jade.

It was not as hard as imagined to be difficult to cut into, nor did it cut in half easily.

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

When the smoke and dust cleared, Uesugi Kiyoshi slashed the stone road in front of him with a sword. The ground trembled and cracked, and a crack dozens of meters long and half a meter wide appeared in front of everyone.

Yagyu Ken dodged to the side nimbly, his mouth wide open with a look of disbelief.

There was an uproar on the phone in his hand.

Teppei Yagyu was just serving tea and drinking water. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but spray a mouthful of tea on Hidekawa Kamiizumi's collar.

Kamiizumi Hidekawa had no time to care about this. He stood up excitedly, muttered something in a low voice, and suddenly laughed heartily.

The swordsmen who were watching were also shocked.

"What is this?"

"The sword-testing stone is broken?!!"

"Hey, Yagyu, this isn't some inferior product, is it?"

Yagyu Teppei turned around and made a "Pooh" sound, his face distorted.

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

"Ito, let me ask you, what is the best existing result?"

Ito Kengo shook his head, his eyes as big as copper bells.

"If I remember correctly, the one who achieved the best result in our generation was Brother Shangquan. He slashed his sword into a three-foot sword-testing stone, and the stone penetrated one foot and eight."

"Your youngest son, Lian, is indeed gifted. He was able to break a stone two feet and four inches high with one sword, which is an unprecedented achievement."

"."

"Can"

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

"Three hours of Sword Heart Awakening is fine."

"He chopped the sword-testing stone into powder with one sword! This is simply unheard of. How strong must his awakened sword heart be?!!"

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

"Huh, I knew Qing would never let me down."

"When I mentioned this before, you laughed at me for bragging. What about now?"

"I said."

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

“Who else thinks I’m bragging?”

"Go and cut a sword-testing stone and try it out!"

Amid the noisy admiration of several swordsmen, Uesugi Qing exhaled a breath and opened his bright eyes.

His eyes had returned to calm, his sword intent was restrained, and no emotion could be seen.

He sheathed Murasame, bowed slightly, and saluted the mobile phone screen held high.

"Master, I succeeded."

As he spoke, he pointed out.

The slender fingertips, with a three-inch sharp edge, pierced through the body, flashing a faint but real milky white light.

Then he threw his hand away.

The three-inch sword light was swung out and hit the rockery not far away, cutting off half of the mountain.

Seeing this, the swordsmen over there started shouting and cursing again.

"Kamiizumi Hidekawa!"

"Is your disciple a human?"

"Just after awakening the sword heart, you can use the sword energy to leave your body and kill people within a hundred steps?"

"."

"I'm not as skilled as him in using this move now!"

Chapter 268 Envy

When Uesugi Kiyoshi heard this, he just took it as a joke.

Apart from anything else, when his master showed him the sword energy, he saw it clearly.

Although the destructive power is incomparable, the master's control over sword energy is far beyond his current reach.

With every move he made, his energy was as strong as that of the sword, and he could move in an instant, covering a thousand miles.

It's a bit like the methods used by sword immortals in the Chinese fantasy novels, at least the visual effect can have a great impact on people.

His guess was not wrong. Birds of a feather flock together. The swordsmen who were familiar with Kamiizumi Hidekawa were basically known as swordsmen. At least they were the masters of a certain school. They were powerful and had more experience. They were all veterans who had been struggling in the extraordinary field for ten years or even dozens of years.

They were making such a fuss only because the sword energy that Uesugi Kiyoshi just used was truly too amazing.

To put it bluntly, this move does not need to be polished. When used in actual combat, it will be a killer move that can determine the outcome.

It doesn't seem like a move that a young swordsman who has just awakened can use at will.

"Okay, shut up."

"Humph, I was able to suppress you guys back then, so my apprentice can suppress those brats of yours!"

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

Kamiizumi Hidekawa wiped the sweat from his palms on his collar imperceptibly, pushed left and right a few times, looked around, and his eyes and eyebrows were full of pride and joy - he was not so happy when he had just awakened his swordsmanship.

Then, he said something that came back to his old friend.

Teppei Yagyu stared at Uesugi Kiyoshi in a daze and shook his head in disbelief.

"It's true that Lian has talent, but after he awakened his sword heart, he also practiced for several months before he could master the initial use of sword energy."

"With your apprentice's level, he can definitely get the title of a swordsman."

"If I remember correctly, the standard used by the officials in Kyoto to judge whether a superb swordsman has entered the realm of swordsmanship is that the sword energy must be a hundred steps away from the body, condensed without dissipating, and maintain lethality."

"Everyone present here should have experienced this. The sword light just now was definitely more powerful than what I experienced before."

"You old man, how lucky are you to have picked up such a treasure!"
