Qingdeng raised his chin as he spoke, signaling "I will stay with you until the end", and his aura was rising steadily.

Almost at the same time, Prajna on the opposite side also surged in momentum!

"This battle... I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

"Ever since I learned that Master passed on Vairocana to you, I have been looking forward to today."

"Looking forward to defeating you and proving to Master that I am the true master of Vairocana!"

"Ju Qingden, get ready to take the attack! I'm going to... tear you apart from the front!"

After saying that, he suddenly raised his left hand and grabbed the fabric at his right shoulder——

Hiss!

He ripped off the clothes on his upper body, revealing the ferocious tattoo on his back.

His face is pale, he has several fangs in his mouth, and he has a pair of horns on his head. He stares at others with a ferocious smile - it is the evil ghost Prajna formed by strong jealousy and resentment!

"Feiyan Canxinliu"

"Yamada Asaemon Katsumi!"

Niou held his sword in front of him, and the awe-inspiring righteousness he spurted out dispersed the evil mist emitted by the evil spirit.

"Naturally Rishin flow"

"Tachibana Aoden!"

The next moment, two extremely powerful "potentials" collided heavily in mid-air, and the terrifying aura caused by this caused the wind and cloud to change color!

A moment later, two fast-moving figures shoveled away the soil and disturbed the fallen leaves on the ground.

Prajna's feet touched the ground, as if gliding, and the knife in Cai Qingyan's stance was slashed diagonally downwards. The speed of the knife was so fast that it was frightening. The characteristics of the "executioner's knife technique" were fully demonstrated in this blow.

Qingdeng didn't take a step back. The sword was lowered and the force was heavy on his waist.

The tip of the knife was seen to be stationary for a moment, and then it was swung upwards like a cirrus cloud, directly deflecting Prajna's knife. The remaining force even caused Prajna's body to lose balance uncontrollably.

Qingden accurately grasped this fleeting flaw, jumped up, raised Vairocana to his chest, rushed towards Prajna, and plunged into his arms.

Logically speaking, Prajna whose body is out of balance is doomed.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Prajna actually showed extraordinary balance ability. He quickly stepped on his feet before the purple sword light arrived, and raised his sword to block it.

clang!!

The deafening sound and numbing reaction force were transmitted to both sides at the same time.

Although Qingdeng did not use all his strength with this sword, he still used 7% of his strength.

But even if it is like this, it is enough to make it difficult for 99% of the people in this world to compete.

It had been a long time since Qingdeng had encountered an opponent like this who could withstand his blows.

In this round, both sides attacked and defended. No one was injured and no one took advantage. It was considered a draw.

In the next round, a more intense confrontation will begin!

Prajna did not flick away Qingden's sword, but flipped his wrists flexibly, adjusting the direction of the blade, so that the blade of Nagasone Kotetsu was close to Vairocana's blade, and swept towards Qingden's face as if sliding down.

The rapid friction between the two knives scraped out countless fairy-like sparks.

Before the sparks dissipated, the knife was already in front of Qingdeng.

At the same time when the sparks had not yet dissipated, Qingdeng leaned back as if his body was broken - his talents "Water Body +4" and "Snake Body +4" were activated - he turned a somersault easily, without missing a beat.

Hide out of Prajna's slashing range.

[Note·Water body +4: The coordination of the limbs is better than that of ordinary people. Snake body +4: The flexibility of the body is better than that of ordinary people.]

This time, Prajna released an overwhelming offensive.

Before Qingdeng could fight back, he took long strides like a whirlwind, pressed forward like a giant, and fought Qingdeng again.

A flash!

Flash again!

Three flashes!

From the perspective of a bystander, Nagasone Kotetsu's blade flashed three times in mid-air. Because the blade was so fast, at first glance, it seemed that the three swords were swung at the same time.

As soon as these three flashes of light approached Qingdeng, they shattered and disappeared - because there were three equally indistinguishable purple flashes of light that blocked them one by one!

You come and I go, the sword shines brightly.

The arena where the two fought was constantly changing, sometimes shuttled through the dense forest, sometimes wrestling in the open space, sometimes flying to a thick branch.

As the battleground between them continues to expand, the traces of destruction are also spreading rapidly.

Crushed fallen leaves.

Broken tree trunk.

The cracked earth.

Powerful power is surging, and everything the blade touches is ravaged!

Different from the duel between Hannya and Kiryu's boss just now, this is a truly evenly matched fight!

No one has the upper hand, and no one has the upper hand.

Whenever it is attacked, it will immediately counterattack.

In order to cope with the opponent's onslaught, both sides had to open their eyes wide, not even daring to blink. They stared at every move of the opponent. A moment of relaxation would kill them directly, and they would never be injured - such a terrifying chop.

If you take a hit, you will definitely die!

Although their duel was extremely fierce and the offensive and defensive rhythm was incredibly fast, the transition between victory and defeat was equally rapid.

From a certain perspective, Qingteng can be regarded as a "slow-warming" swordsman.

As the fighting time continued to lengthen, he felt that the blood in his body became hotter and hotter, his hands and feet became lighter and more agile, and his spirit was highly concentrated.

The talents "Gathering God" and "Born for Fighting +9" are activated!

[Note: Born to fight +9: The more tense and intense the battle situation, the better the physical and mental state will be. 】

Between the lightning and flint, Qingdeng's will was transmitted to the tip of the knife, and he swung the knife forward like an arm.

Tsk - there was a slight sound of flesh splitting open, the knife was too swift, and Prajna had no time to completely avoid it, and a small blood mark was cut on his shoulder.

Qingden's offensive didn't stop, he chased Prajna like a flying swallow, and slashed at the opponent's chest with his sword again.

His body was not stable and he had no time to dodge. Prajna could only raise his sword and fight hand-to-hand.

Qingden's blow was so unstoppable that Prajna immediately took two steps back after receiving it forcefully to stabilize his body.

In order to get rid of the current passive situation, Prajna took a deep breath, accumulated strength every second, and flew forward to slash Qingden's waist and abdomen, trying to interrupt his attack rhythm.

It was too late, but it was too late. Qingdeng stabbed twice in a row.

With the first stab, he deflected Prajna's attack, then his hand turned into an afterimage, and he pulled the knife back to his hand with dizzying speed, and then struck out with the second stab.

That bit of cold light instantly magnified in Prajna's eyes... Although he ducked again, Vairocana's blade brushed his earlobe, and the straight scar opened like a shell.

There is no doubt that Qingden has gradually gained the upper hand and Prajna has shown defeat.

What Qingden lacks most is physical strength. Even in a war of attrition, he has full confidence in dragging Prajna to death.

Under the circumstances of this ebb and flow, Prajna will only become more and more passive, tired of running for his life, and ultimately end up defeated.

But even so... there was no trace of panic on Prajna's face.

I saw him calmly and calmly responding to the challenge and showing off his tactics at the first glance.

Even if he was accidentally injured, he would not react at all, not even moving his brows.

At this moment, Prajna's eyes underwent subtle changes - a strange light flickered out of them.

…

…

7 years ago——

Somewhere in Kanto——

"Finally I found you, you are Yamada Asaemon Katsumi, right?"

The sudden voice made Katsuki tense up all the nerves in his body. He subconsciously lowered his waist, holding a saber in his hand, and turned to face the speaker - a young man with a handsome face walking unhurriedly from the mountain forest.

Stepping out of the shadows.

"Yamada Asaemon Katsumi, first meeting!"

The young man showed a sunny smile and greeted Katsuki warmly.

Self-denying and unmoved, he asked as if facing a formidable enemy:

"Who are you?"

The young man stood ten meters away in front of Keji, with a wider smile on his face.
