Boss Kiryu heard this and nodded gently:

"Indeed. It is indeed very gratifying to see your beloved disciple become successful."

Having said this, he paused and put on a calm smile:

"However, for me, the most gratifying thing in the process of cultivating disciples...or the happiest thing is not when the disciples' growth becomes more and more in line with my expectations."

"It's when the disciple's growth exceeds my imagination."

"It's a pity that so far, Keji has not met my standards."

"Perhaps one day in the future, Keji...or one of my new disciples can bring me this kind of happiness."

…

…

Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!

The combat power of the two has become indistinguishable because they have also entered the "state of selflessness".

The sound of steel swords clashing one after another, and the attack showing no signs of slowing down, made one wonder whether the two of them would fight forever.

At this moment, as if they had agreed in advance, the heels of the two men raised light dust, as if they had been burned by boiling water, and they retreated at the same time, leaving a distance of nearly twenty meters.

The reason for the sudden stop was not that the two were unable to fight anymore.

None of them lack physical strength, and they all have the confidence and ability to fight for another 300 rounds.

It's just...the knives in their hands can't hold on any longer.

The offensive was like a storm, causing serious damage to the swords of both sides.

Whether it is Qingden's Vairocana or Prajna's Choso Mihu Tetsu, they are all scarred.

The sharp edge is full of large and small gaps, as straight as a saw.

Looking back on the past, Qingden often used Vairocana to chop bones, stones, steel and other hard objects, and even tried to chop boats.

But no matter how much trouble he made, Vairocana was always as good as new, without even a crack.

To be able to injure a great sword of this level like this... One can only imagine how terrifying the duel between Qingden and Prajna was!

This also proves that the genuine Nagaso Ni Kotetsu really lives up to the reputation of "the twelve most powerful products".

Qingden and Prajna are both experienced top swordsmen.

Just by the feel of the knife when swinging it, you can intuitively feel the condition of the knife in your palm.

Therefore, they all have the same judgment at this time: the blade in their hands has reached its limit! After a few more rounds, it will snap!

If the sword is gone, they can only decide the outcome with their fists like primitive people.

"...Ju Qingden, it's time for a showdown!"

After Prajna screamed like this, he slowly lowered his waist, flipped his right wrist, held the handle of the knife upside down, and slowly put the knife back into its sheath with a "chocking, licking, licking, licking" sound.

"This is my strongest move... and also the last move my master taught me!"

"The secret of Feiyan Zanshin-ryu is also the secret of Batojutsu-ryu - Setsuna!"

"I will fight with the only strength I have left, my will!"

"If you have the guts, take my move!"

The sword was not unsheathed, but his aura when he was charging up had already made Qingden's face sink.

Take advantage of the fact that the sword is not broken yet and there is still some strength left to decide the outcome with one move - Qingdeng has exactly this intention!

He did not respond vocally, only responded silently with actions——

With a "click" sound, Qingdeng pulled his left foot back, allowing his body to sink naturally. Then he flipped his right wrist, changed his grip to a supinated grip, and then slowly sheathed the knife.

The movements of the two are almost identical, like two sides of a mirror.

Seeing Qingdeng's actions, Prajna grinned, revealing a twisted and excited grin.

"Very good! Just what I want!"

"Since we are brothers in the same discipline, let us use the same tricks to decide the outcome!"

The further Prajna spoke, the more terrifying his expression became, and the more passionate and excited his tone became...or in other words, crazy.

The lines of his face were extremely distorted, not resembling a human form, but more like the ghost tattooed on his back.

"The person who wins in the end must be me!!"

"I will definitely defeat you! Prove to the master that I am the best successor to the master!!"

The moment he finished speaking, the storm-like sword energy centered on him, like a natural tree emerging from the ground, rising into the sky!

A moment...the ultimate secret of flowing light.

Squeeze all the energy in the body and rush towards the opponent as fast as possible, integrating muscle strength, body weight and the potential energy of the charge to maximize the power of the slash.

The key to this move is whether you can maintain the stability of your sword-drawing posture while running at full speed, and whether you can draw the sword at the best moment in a fleeting moment.

It's a pity... Qingdeng has not been able to fully master this move until now.

According to Kiryu's boss, Prajna had completely mastered Liuguang and learned the secrets long before he betrayed his master.

Although Aoden has not witnessed Hannya's accomplishments in sword-drawing skills with his own eyes, judging from his impressive record of "defeating Souji" and "making Kiryu's boss break his sword", his sword-drawing skills have definitely reached a state of perfection!

What's more, when he subdued Souji and Boss Kiryu, he didn't use "Setsuna", just an ordinary "Liu Guang".

In this way, it is really difficult to imagine how powerful the "moment" he activated in the "selfless realm" would be...

Whether he could block Prajna's attack and defeat the enemy... To be honest, Qingden was not sure.

——Only "Snap" can fight against "Snap"!

At this thought, Qingden lowered his eyelids, showed a stern look on his face, and his sword energy erupted.

You don't need to try to know that "Streaming Light" is absolutely unable to compete with its profound meaning.

Although he has never successfully used "Snap" before, now that he has reached the point where he has no other option but to fight to the death.

Just when Qingdeng made up his mind and secretly gathered strength... Suddenly, he felt a warm breath coming from behind him.

"Mr. Ju, calm down."

"Boss Kiryu...?"

Qingden subconsciously tilted his head and looked at Boss Kiryu behind him.

Boss Kiryu was seen supporting his weak body and standing directly behind Qingden. Two generous hands reached out from both sides of Qingden's body. His left hand was resting on Vairocana's sheath, and his right hand was covering Qingden's body.

Go to the back of the right hand that is holding the knife.

"Don't relax, your opponent hasn't fallen yet, go see your opponent."

Upon hearing this, Qingden immediately withdrew his gaze and looked at Prajna opposite him again.

The two masters and disciples just stood in a front-to-back position with "back to chest", assuming the same Iai posture, and looked directly at Hannya who had turned into a demon.

"Jijun, you don't have to worry too much."

"Win or lose, success or failure, all are forgotten."

"Follow your own will and wield the sword according to your own ideas."

Having said this, Boss Kiryu smiled peacefully.

"Let this evil ghost who can only look at himself see how powerful our master and apprentice can be when we join forces."

"Don't worry, I will always be behind you."

After Qingdeng listened, a peaceful expression slowly appeared on his cheeks, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

I saw him slowly closing his eyes... When he opened them again, his eyes seemed to have been cleansed, like the clear sky after the rain.

The subtle changes in Qingdeng's body were clearly reflected in Prajna's eyes.

Until just now, the guy in front of me had always exuded an aura of anxiety, giving people a sense of unrest, but after this moment, it all dissipated.

Qingdeng felt as if he was standing in a quiet space with no breeze at all.

This feeling... I haven't seen it for a long time.

During the duel with Rakshasa, he once had such a state, where his spirit and body completely turned into a clear and transparent void.

Apart from the knife in his palm, he can no longer feel anything else.

Looking at Boss Aoto and Kiryu standing in front of each other, holding the same sword in the same Iai posture, Hannya fell into a brief daze.

His vision suddenly felt blurry... He saw that Boss Kiryu's appearance had changed.

The white hair on his head gradually turned black and turned into shiny black hair in the blink of an eye.

The wrinkles that originally covered the skin disappeared.

His figure is no longer skinny, and his eyebrows are full of majestic heroic spirit.

The old man disappeared...standing there was a young swordsman in his prime!
