Dragon Clan: I'm too lazy to talk to you, you're not worthy to listen!

I don't know why, but I feel like I'm seeing things more and more slowly these days.

Inside the sword-concealing room.

In Inuyama He's hands, Onimaru Kunitsuna seemed to transform into a white afterimage. The wooden clogs under Inuyama He's feet made a dense sound as they stomped on the wooden floor, making it impossible to distinguish the footsteps.

Ye Jingchen watched helplessly as Inuyama He's sword slashed towards him. The sharpness of the blade was reflected in his pupils. It was a downward crescent-shaped slash. If it struck and hit, it would at least cut open the skin of his chest, or at worst sever his collarbone.

Japanese swordsmanship originated from the rice-shaped slashing technique.

Vertical slash, left diagonal downward slash, right diagonal downward slash, left horizontal slash, right horizontal slash.

As for upward slashes, left diagonal slashes, and right diagonal slashes, since the force is generated from bottom to top, it is not easy to exert full power, and there is a risk of the weak attacking the strong, which is disliked by Japanese swordsmanship.

Ye Jingchen silently activated the Word of Power: Moment. Ye Jingchen estimated that when he first activated the Word of Power: Moment at Senso-ji Temple, it was probably at four times the speed, but he just didn't have a reference point.

Just how fast is Onimaru Kunitsuna?

Inuyama Setsuko's eyes couldn't see clearly at all; she only felt that Inuyama Kazuya was like a ghost or a demon. This was a contest that she couldn't understand; she wasn't in that realm.

She only felt that the two people fighting in front of her had turned into afterimages, and their swords were constantly clashing.

Ye Jingchen drew his nameless sword and blocked Onimaru Kunitsuna with it.

An old man and a young man faced each other through their weapons, their eyes locked, one pair of eyes cloudy, the other clear.

Inuyama He seemed to see his younger self in Ye Jingchen's eyes. He lowered his eyes and stared at Ye Jingchen's toes. "Was it a prediction?"

The movements of a cake maker are all about footwork. A solid lower body, footwork leading the waist, and the waist leading the whole body.

"Yes." Ye Jingchen did not deny the extent of his prediction.

However, this is not a difficult move to predict. Anyone who knows how to adjust the speed of a short video on their phone will say, "I could do that too," after seeing it clearly.

Ye Jingchen gripped the sword hilt tightly. "I may have been too modest, Senior Inuyama. I think I should be above the third level of Divine Speed ​​now. Please adjust it to the fifth level of Divine Speed!"

2 to the power of 5, 32 times faster!

"Really?" Inuyama He asked, still somewhat skeptical.

Ye Jingchen drew his sword directly, answering Inuyama He's question. Wuming deflected Onimaru Kunitsuna and transformed into a blue afterimage in Ye Jingchen's hand, slashing towards Inuyama He's abdomen!

"Divine Speed ​​Fourth Rank!" Inuyama He raised his level by one, took a step back to dodge Ye Jingchen's slash, and changed the crescent slash of Onimaru Kunitsuna in his hand into a vertical slash!

Behind Onimaru Kunitsuna's afterimage, it looked as if he was dragging a long tail.

"Not fast enough!" Ye Jingchen glanced at Inuyama He's eyes, slid a step to the left to dodge the slash, and slung his sword behind him. "Directly to the fifth level of Divine Speed!"

"As you wish, Swiftness Level 5!!" Inuyama He glanced at Ye Jingchen and slashed left at Ye Jingchen's waist.

At the fifth level of Divine Speed, Onimaru Kunitsuna seemed to have undergone a qualitative change, transforming from an afterimage into three swords pointing in the same direction. Each sword was as solid as a physical object, and if the Shadow Clone Technique were activated, it would be difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Anyone who frequently watches short videos and has seen a vegetable slicer knows that the blades that appear to rotate slowly in the video, yet manage to slice a whole carrot into thin slices, are not actually slow; rather, the dynamic visuals cannot keep up with the speed of the blades' rotation, thus misleading the viewer.

In Inuyama Setsuko's eyes, Onimaru Kunitsuna in Inuyama He's hands had truly become three identical blades.

But in Ye Jingchen's eyes, Onimaru Kunitsuna was still a sword, only faster, with a trailing tail behind the blade.

Ye Jingchen flipped his wrist, using the Nameless Sword to block the attack that was aimed at his left waist by Onimaru Kunitsuna, and was about to speak.

Inuyama He suddenly appeared behind Ye Jingchen. It turned out that he had just used the sword technique: Mingxin Blade Style - Secret Technique - Phantom Sword. The sword strike aimed at Ye Jingchen's waist was a feint. The real killing move was a sneak attack from behind, aimed at the spine!

If the spine is severed, a person becomes disabled and loses the ability to control their body.

"Sword Technique: Su Qin Carrying the Sword!" Ye Jingchen placed Wuming behind him, blocked Inuyama He's Onimaru Kunitsuna, and calmly said, "Inuyama-senpai, I'm starting to struggle a bit. Perhaps you could try the sixth level of Divine Speed!"

Upon hearing Ye Jingchen's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Inuyama He's eyes, along with a touch of delight. He usually practiced swordsmanship, and the most frequently used technique was actually the sixth level of Divine Speed, a speed state that he was most familiar with.

Inuyama He silently activated the sixth level of Divine Speed. This time, he did not speak. With the sixth level of Divine Speed ​​and a speed of 64 times, air resistance had become the biggest enemy of speed.

When you open your mouth to speak, your mouth is instantly filled with air, and your cheeks bulge out.

This duel between the pastry chefs had a huge impact. They were experts, so let's be more precise.

Inuyama He didn't speak. He found the feeling he used to when he used a wooden sword to strike a wooden stake at this speed.

Onimaru Kunitsuna, as if returning to his original form, was clearly exposed before everyone's eyes. The slightly curved katana, every curve was so reasonable and perfect, and a crimson light shimmered in the calm.

Onimaru Kunitsuna was bloodthirsty, and his killing intent instantly swept through the entire sword-making room. Inuyama He entered a slightly serious state. In this state, he was not like a sword master, but more like a daimyo of the Sengoku period, with thousands of corpses and blood behind him.

This isn't meant to be a smear campaign; in the ancient history of Japan, most wars between daimyo involved several thousand people.

Ye Jingchen sensed the change in Inuyama He. The nameless one had come to this world and had drunk blood before; this was, in essence, a blood-drinking sword.

However, Ye Jingchen did not release his killing intent, as that would be unfair to Inuyama He, since Ye Jingchen's killing intent contained the lives of more than one world.

Since arriving in this world, Ye Jingchen had only released a little killing intent towards Yuan Zhisheng in that alley back then, when he was still an ordinary person.

Ye Jingchen swung his sword with all his might, slicing through Onimaru Kunitsuna who was charging towards him.

The two distanced themselves, maintaining a five-meter gap, and quietly observed each other.

Ye Jingchen held the nameless object behind his back with his right hand, and waved to Inuyama He with his left hand, looking at Inuyama He seriously, "Senior Inuyama, there's no need to advance step by step, I want to feel your limit!"

"Alright!" Inuyama He turned around and walked to the sword platform, picked up the sword hilt from the platform, twirled the sword, and sheathed Onimaru Kunitsuna.

He closed his eyes, his silver-white hair moving without wind. "My limit is the ninth level of divine speed, 512 times the speed. Under these circumstances, I may not be able to stop in time!"

"Word of Power - Immortality!" Ye Jingchen didn't act rashly, silently activating his defense, a faint metallic sheen emanating from his body. He wasn't a swordsman seeking the ultimate truth; call him filthy, call him shameful, it didn't matter. Beneath the steps of the throne lay the bones of those guilty of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Ye Jingchen stared intently at Onimaru Kunitsuna in Inuyama He's hand. "No need to hold back!"

Inuyama He moved, reaching the ninth level of Divine Speed, as if time had stopped at that moment.

Onimaru Kunitsuna was no longer a physical object, no longer an afterimage, no longer a clone, but had become a crimson light!
