Dragon Clan gacha, start as the top player in Takamagahara

For example, the Dragon's Nest Flash of the Flying Sword Style involves rapidly slashing the opponent with a flurry of blows. Once the opponent is caught off guard and reveals an opening, the next move is Dragon's Nest Flash. Bite, an advanced version of Dragon's Nest Flash. The move is faster and more ruthless, like a beast pouncing and biting its prey's throat, thus taking down the opponent in one strike.

Above these are Tornado Flash, Twin Dragon Flash, Thunder, and Dragon Roar Flash.

Now, Lin Ye has mastered all these sword techniques to the fullest, displaying a natural masterly style.

The boy dressed in red and white samurai attire truly resembled a swordsman from the Edo period, like the executioner Battosai, who could kill one person with a single step and leave no trace for a thousand miles.

The drifting cherry blossoms were shattered by the sharp blade, transforming into a crimson torrent that surged back and forth on the stage, the blade light itself rendered with a beautiful and poetic ambiance.

However, beneath this dazzling spectacle lies a chilling, icy edge.

Lin Ye's expression was cold and his aura was powerful and intimidating. Now his spirit and energy had merged with the combat-type Himura Kenshin, or rather, he was now the real Himura Kenshin.

A sharp, piercing wind suddenly arose!

Nine bone-piercing blade lights slashed in from different directions, like a cage forcefully crushing everything in its path, at first glance resembling a laser net with astonishing cutting power from a science fiction movie.

It was none other than Lin Ye's Nine-Headed Dragon Flash.

This is the second most powerful sword move in the Flying Sword Style after the Absolute Killing Heavenly Soaring Dragon Flash. It involves slashing nine times in an instant at extremely high speed, with the directions being Tang Bamboo, Kesa-giri, Reverse Kesa, Left Pheasant, Right Pheasant, Left Cut Up, Right Cut Up, and Against the Wind and Thrust. Once activated, it can instantly cover all of the opponent's attacks, even leaving the opponent with no way to avoid it, thus forcing them to endure the attack.

Even Genjiro's eyes narrowed slightly when faced with this move.

He actually felt pressured by this move.

However, the Nine-Headed Dragon Flash is not without its flaws. As the saying goes, speed is the only way to break through any martial art. Even when facing such a powerful combo as the Nine-Headed Dragon Flash, you can counter it with an equally fast slash.

To put it simply, it's about responding to each move as it comes.

However, because the Nine-Headed Dragon Flash is extremely fast, opponents can only see a dense net of sword light coming towards them, making it difficult to see the true direction of the attack. Moreover, even if they do sense it, each Dragon Flash sword light strike is powerful and heavy, and ordinary swordsmen simply cannot withstand it.

But that's only in comparison to others, not to Yuan Zhisheng!

Buzz!

The spider-slicer in the man's hand trembled violently, then drew out streaks of icy blue light, the blade flashing and crisscrossing, instantly unleashing nine slashes.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!

On the stage, the two swords clashed fiercely, their clashes as powerful as thunder.

Everyone present felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation.

In their eyes, it seemed that both Yuan Zhisheng and Lin Ye had disappeared from the stage, leaving only streaks of cold light whistling through the air, accompanied by thunder and a surging tide of fierce energy.

Chi Chi!

Invisible, sharp air currents surged and intertwined from the stage, constantly bursting forth, cutting through the girls' clothes. Some girls even hurriedly pulled up their bras to avoid being completely exposed to everyone.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, the girls were terrified and retreated amidst screams.

However, they were not scared away immediately, because they really wanted to see Kenshin fight, and were also worried about Kenshin's safety. So they continued to watch the fight from various cover.

The entire Takamagahara has now become their battlefield; stepping into it is like walking on their blades.

The two swords clashed fiercely, the resounding clash like the roar of a tiger and the cry of a dragon.

The large black and red curtain on the stage shook violently. The humpback whale was still in shock. If it went up at this moment, it would surely be whipped away by this heavy curtain.

With a crack, and then an explosion, the massive crimson curtain was torn into countless fragments by the sharp, dense blade light, which fluttered like countless crimson butterflies.

The fighting temporarily ceased.

On the stage, like butterflies fluttering, two slender figures each sheathed their swords and stood three meters apart.

Many people immediately peeked out, eager to see who had won, or rather, whether their beloved Kenshin had been injured.

However, the two figures stood silently to each other, neither of them intending to stop.

Both Lin Ye and Yuan Zhisheng's auras grew stronger, and the atmosphere in the room not only did not become more relaxed, but instead had an extremely oppressive feeling of impending storm.

……

on the stage.

Lin Ye's hand holding the knife trembled slightly. Don't misunderstand, it wasn't from fear, but rather from the terrifying force transmitted from the reverse-blade sword during his duel with Genjiro.

"Truly a monster who inherited royal blood."

Lin Ye felt a surge of emotion.

Although the Dragon Raja novels have described Genji's power many times, even Chu Zihang and Caesar couldn't suppress him when they joined forces, that was just a shock from the words. Now, seeing him in a real-world showdown, the horror in my heart is simply indescribable.

Lin Ye was almost suffocating under the opponent's strong offensive for just six or seven minutes.

Yagyu Shinkage-ryu: No-sword technique.

Natural Rinnegan Flow - Heaven's Will Stick.

Mirror Heart Wisdom Flow·Vasara Dance.

Heart-shaped Blade Style - Four Chapters and Eight Phases.

……

Various powerful sword techniques and saber skills erupted from Genji's hands, making him incredibly fierce.

Lin Ye was horrified upon closer examination, because this was merely a simple swordsmanship contest. If Genjiro were to unleash his royal power, it would be a force comparable to that of a god.

However, Lin Ye was not discouraged. After fusing with the combat-type Himura Kenshin, his swordsmanship was not to be underestimated. The most direct manifestation of this was that in the battle against the giant tortoise, he was not defeated in one blow. On the contrary, he was very resilient!

Moreover, Lin Ye would never give up. If he were to lose in this competition, who knows what punishment the system would give him? In this near-desperate situation, Lin Ye's potential was gradually unearthed.

As the saying goes, the stubborn are afraid of the ruthless, and the ruthless are afraid of the reckless. Who's afraid of who? Let's all hurt each other!

With this determination, Lin Ye's energy and spirit surged, making him appear extremely imposing.

At this moment, Genjiro's heart was equally heavy.

In terms of swordsmanship alone, he has yet to sense where Lin Ye's limits are.

Genjiro has always been very confident in his swordsmanship skills. After all, he has studied various schools of swordsmanship and has amazing talent. His years of experience have made him almost a swordsmanship master.

After fighting for nearly ten minutes, he still hadn't completely defeated Lin Ye, who hadn't even shown any signs of distress under his fierce attacks.

We can't wait any longer!

If the situation drags on, Lin Ye's image as a swordsman will be further solidified, and even if he is truly defeated by then, the effect will not be too strong.

Yuan Zhisheng had already seen the infatuated, almost frenzied, gazes of the female customers below as they looked at Lin Ye.

Among these girls, Erii stood out.

Because she was so beautiful, like an angel fallen to earth, even though all the girls present were outstanding, Erii could still be instantly noticed in the crowd.

But now, this stunningly beautiful angel has focused all her attention on Lin Ye.

it's time!

Yuan Zhisheng's gaze was cold and stern. He slowly turned the hilt of his sword, and his aura became quiet and murderous, carrying an unprecedented sense of resolute determination.

That was the awareness of abandoning everything, as if one was about to unleash the next strike, already prepared to die.

Genjiro didn't want to use this fatal blow, since it was a face-to-face fight. If he killed Lin Ye, Erii's dragon bloodline might be disrupted due to the huge emotional fluctuations.

But he can't care about that now!

"If you still have a trump card, don't hold back. Let's decide the outcome with one strike!"

Yuan Zhisheng spoke in a deep voice, like metal clashing against stone.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye was shaken.

He knew the giant tortoise was about to unleash its full power. The aura emanating from it was so intense it felt like being plunged into an ice cellar, and the way it wielded its sword was clearly the most ferocious strike of the Heart-Shaped Sword Style, the Four Forms and Eight Phases, mentioned in the Dragon Raja novels—the Rakshasa Ghost Bone.

This was also the fastest and bloodiest strike in all of Genji's attacks.

"Thank you."

Lin Ye nodded, his expression becoming extremely solemn.

He sensed a chilling killing intent emanating from Genjiro, which forced him to concentrate all his energy and potential to deal with it.

Lin Ye slowly lowered his body, his aura became calm, and he solemnly and slowly inserted the reverse-blade sword in his right hand into the scabbard in his left hand.

Clang! The reverse-blade sword is fully sheathed!

The fierce and turbulent energy that had been spreading around was absorbed into the scabbard like a vast ocean, and everything became calm again.

However, the atmosphere at the scene became even more oppressive, giving people a sense of dread, as if when Lin Ye drew his sword again, it would surely be a devastating and swift strike.

Rumble!

The sky seemed to be splattered with thick ink, with pale white, branching lightning bolts streaking wildly, like a raging dragon bound in a dark cage, emitting a ferocious roar.

Takamagahara, center stage.

Two tall, slender figures stood facing each other, five meters apart, each holding a knife.

Beneath the dome, the two men's cold, stern faces flickered in the dim light.

The trench coat fluttered like a battle flag, making a whooshing sound.

Genjiro exuded a murderous and tragic aura. At this moment, a terrifying force surrounded the man. Whether it was everyone's imagination or not, the entire Takamagahara was filled with a thick smell of blood, as if mountains of corpses and seas of blood were rolling in, which made people tremble with fear.

Heart-Shaped Sword Style·Four Phases and Eight Phases!

This is an extremely terrifying sword style. The so-called Eight Phases refer to eight terrifying phenomena, including crimson flames, Asura, Netherworld, and Rakshasa. Those who practice this forbidden style must constantly visualize and hone these eight terrifying phenomena in their minds. Moreover, during practice, a teacher will be present to assist them.

For example, when visualizing the scene of blazing flames, the teacher will bring a brazier filled with blazing charcoal close to the practitioner, and may even burn the practitioner with the charcoal when necessary. The practitioner must not open their eyes throughout the visualization, and even if they are roasted by the charcoal until they smell like meat, they must grit their teeth and persevere, always visualizing themselves as being in the deepest hell, with the blazing hellfire around them like the greedy and fierce tongues of monsters licking at them. At this time, the practitioner must use great willpower to overcome the burning pain in their body and the fear in their heart.

Only when both body and mind overcome this test can one truly pass. Moreover, this is only the first stage of the eight phases, the Crimson Flame Scene. To cultivate all four phases and eight phases, one must pass these eight trials.

One can imagine how difficult this path of cultivation is, no less than walking through mountains of knives and seas of fire. Only those with truly great perseverance can endure it. And once you have completely passed the test and endured the eight hellish visualization trials, you can control the most ferocious blade—the Rakshasa Demon Bone!

This is a killing blade that completely abandons all awareness. The wielder abandons the body and life, with a chilling heart. A tidal wave of killing intent is condensed on the blade. No matter if there is an impenetrable wall of bronze or a powerful ghost or god in front of it, it will cut down without hesitation.

Now, Genjiro leaned slightly forward, turned the hilt of his sword, his face solemn, about to unleash this fatal strike.

However, faced with the man's resolute and chilling killing blow, Lin Ye closed his eyes and even his breathing gradually calmed down.

Under such dire circumstances, Lin Ye's potential was fully unleashed. His spirit and energy burned continuously and merged completely with Himura Kenshin, and he entered a mysterious and profound battle state.

In this state, Lin Ye lowered his body, reached out, and slowly placed his right hand on the hilt of the reverse-blade sword. At first glance, he looked like a venomous snake about to pounce, or a leaf slowly drifting down from the treetop.
