Chapter 357: Slashing the Waterfall with a Knife (First Update)

Takemiya Hongichi is a legend and a myth for many Japanese people who practice martial arts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoHe was the last Juggernaut of Japan.

The Japanese Sword Master is a very lofty title, usually canonized by the Prime Minister and the Emperor, and bestowed on the most powerful swordsman in the world at the time. When he was fifty years old, Takemiya Hongichi won the title of Sword Saint, and he had already fought all over the Japanese martial arts world. Even if you enter the shrine to challenge several powerful ghosts, you are not afraid at all, and you can even retreat with your whole body.

Since the '60s, he has been hiding under a hill on the outskirts of Tokyo and hasn't done anything for decades.

The martial arts world is constantly changing, and there are generations of kendo masters, but no one thinks they can be the opponent of this legendary sword master. is that although the dark list does not include Takemiya Hongichi in it, the Japanese kendo masters all believe that Takemiya Hongichi's strength is not a god realm, and it is not much weaker. is not on par with the top three on the dark list. One of the most powerful people standing on top of the planet.

And Kuroki Katsu is the personal disciple of Takemiya Hongichi.

Under the leadership of Kuroki Katsu, Ying Longhua followed him to a small garden like green mountains and green waters on the outskirts of Tokyo. The garden is modeled after the architecture of the Edo period, and is full of bamboo forests, wooden houses, lanterns, and small bridges and flowing water, and is full of Zen flavor.

"The teacher was in it and meditating. Kuroki Katsu pointed to a bamboo hut and said to Yinglonghua.

"Since the sixties of the last century, after the teacher retired, he has put down his sword and began to pursue the method of breaking through the divine realm from the Taoist treasures and Buddhist scriptures. By now, I can't see through the teacher's strength, I just feel that he is like a quiet pool, incomparably deep and profound. My water flow sword path was realized from him. Katsu Kuroki introduced.

Ying Longhua nodded slightly.

Forty or fifty years ago, Takemiya Hongichi was the first swordsman in Japan.

At that time, his martial arts had reached the peak of the transformation realm, ranking seventeenth on the dark list. In the past forty or fifty years, he has never made a move and devoted himself to cultivation, who knows how terrifying his martial arts are? If it weren't for Chen Fan who crossed the sea to the east and set foot on the Zuosu Shrine, he would be arrogant and unstoppable. Ying Longhua really doesn't want to work this old-timer to make a move.

"Please take me to meet the Martial Palace seniors. Ying Longhua said coldly.

She was dressed in a white martial arts uniform, with a ponytail tied behind her back, and a black-sheathed katana in her hand. It's like a beautiful girl in kendo who came out of a manga.

"Good. ā€

Kuroki Katsu bowed slightly, and the two of them didn't say a word and stepped into the bamboo house. I saw that the bamboo house was empty, and the home was very simple, with only a few bamboo chairs and bamboo tables, and a capital Chinese character 'Zen' hanging on the wall.

Under the Zen word, a thin old man sat cross-legged.

The old man was so old that his hair was all gray and thin, and there weren't even many left. The skin on his hands was covered with age spots, and his muscles were atrophied, leaving him with only skin and bones. Sit there with your eyes closed and motionless. It was a long time before a faint heartbeat could be heard.

But Kuroki Sheng and Ying Longhua stepped forward respectfully and bowed deeply.

"Teacher, Ying Longhua is here to visit you. Kuroki Katsu whispered respectfully.

Only then did the old man open his cloudy old eyes with difficulty, looked at Ying Longhua carefully, and then nodded lightly, and said in a hoarse and old voice: "Is it that little girl who is very talented in kendo? You came to see me when you were young, you were only twelve years old at the time, and you didn't expect to be so old in a blink of an eye." ā€

"Senior Martial Palace, that was thirty years ago. ā€

Ying Longhua stepped forward and said in a playful voice. A hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes.

She knew that Takemiya Hongichi was very old, nearly a hundred years old. But I didn't expect him to be like this, let alone carrying a sword to kill the enemy, I'm afraid he has to be served by someone when he dresses and eats.

For such a bad old man who looks like his life is dying, can he fight against the invincible Chen Beixuan, Ying Longhua distrusts it from the bottom of his heart.

"yes, that was in the mid-70s of the last century, and thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Takemiya Hongichi said hoarsely with his mouth that had all his teeth gone.

Looking at such a sword saint who was once famous in the country of the sun, but he has grown old like this. Ying Longhua couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in his heart.

'Since ancient times, beauties have been like famous generals, and they are not allowed to see white heads in the world. ’

"Kuroki Katsu, you haven't come to see me for a long time, do you have anything to do with me?" Takemiya Hongyi stretched out his hand tremblingly, Kuroki Katsu hurriedly walked over, gently supported the old man, helped him up, and helped him to the bamboo chair outside the house.

The old man sat in the bamboo chair, and the brilliant sun shone down.

In front of the bamboo house, there is a small river that encloses the entire bamboo house, and on the opposite side of the bamboo house, there is a waterfall tens of meters high. The waterfall fell from the mountain, and dozens of tons of water smashed into the deep pool, making a loud roar.

Small bridges and flowing water, birds and trees and insects, and the roar of waterfalls, it is like paradise.

"Teacher, not long ago, there was an amazing genius in Huaguo, named Chen Beixuan. Before he was twenty years old, he reached the top of Huaguo and was known as the first grandmaster of Huaguo. After the old man sat down, Kuroki Katsu stood beside him carefully and said respectfully.

"Oh, less than twenty? That's amazing. It was the old Takemiya Hongichi, who also raised his eyelids in slight surprise. "Even back then, the myth of the Watanabe Sword Saint and the Lin family only stepped into the realm at the age of thirty. When the Lin family was powering Huaxia, he was also nearly fifty years old. He is only 20 years old, and he is already the first in China? Is there no one in China now?"

Ying Longhua stood to the side, listening with his ears pricked up.

She is too young, only in her forties, and belongs to the post-war generation that grew up. And Wu Gonghong is nearly 100 years old, he has participated in the army and the Black Dragon Society, and in the thirties of the last century, he also followed the previous generation of sword saints to challenge in China. It is said that at that time, the Watanabe Sword Saint once had an earth-shattering battle with the god realm powerhouse of the Huaguo Lin family.

But that was before World War II.

Whether it is the Watanabe Sword Saint or the myth of the Lin family, they all belong to the mythical characters of a hundred years ago. For Ying Longhua, Kuroki Sheng and others, they are too far away.

"I seem to have heard that Hua Guo produced Ye Nantian more than ten years ago, and he is also a genius of Tianzhong, and he is also ranked in the top ten of the dark list, is he also suppressed by this Chen Beixuan?" said Wu Gong Hongyi gasped.

"It's not just him, it's the Qinglong of the generation of Huaguo's special department, all of whom have been overshadowed by this Chen Beixuan. The C.I.A. ranked him third on the dark list. Kuroki Katsu smiled bitterly.

"Oh, third on the dark list?"

The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, and occasionally there was fine light flowing out.

Takemiya Hongichi was also on the dark list back then, but that was forty years ago, and since he retired, the dark list removed him. But this does not prevent Takemiya Hongichi from estimating the strength of the dark list, after all, the top three on the dark list have not changed for decades.

"The third on the dark list is Zeus, the god of thunder, who has fought with the US military and escaped. He can surpass Zeus, and it seems that his strength should not be underestimated. After raising his interest a little, Takemiya Hongichi relaxed again, his eyes closed, and gently knocked on the armrest of the bamboo chair, saying weakly.

"Senior Wu Gong, have you seen Zeus?" asked Ying Longhua curiously.

"Ahem, twenty or thirty years ago, Zeus came to visit me in Japan, and we fought each other at that time. Hiroshi Takemiya coughed repeatedly. He said a word, gasping for breath, as if he was dying.

"Huh?"

Both of them were shocked, and Kuroki Katsu was quite surprised. He hadn't heard anything about it at all.

"What about the outcome or defeat?" asked Ying Longhua eagerly.

"At that time, it didn't matter if you won or lost, but now..."

The old man did not continue, but a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.

Kuroki Katsu and Ying Longhua were shocked when they heard this. Takemiya Hongichi actually fought against Zeus, the god of thunder, and he didn't win or lose. Once this news spreads, he will immediately be among the top five on the dark list.

But that was twenty or thirty years ago. The current Takemiya Hiroichi is dying of old age, and he has to rest for a long time when he says a word. Ying Longhua didn't pay attention to the old man's expression, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, why didn't Chen Beixuan grow old twenty years earlier? In this way, he could see the peerless demeanor of the Martial Palace Sword Saint.

"You are here for this Chen Beixuan?"

Takemiya Hongichi's cloudy eyes shone with wisdom.

"Yes, Martial Palace-senpai. Not long ago, Chen Beixuan stepped into our country and destroyed the Zuosu Shrine. And there seems to be an intention to get involved in other shrines.怂 We can't help it, so we want to ask your old man to come out. Ying Longhua bowed violently and said respectfully.

"What?"

This time, Hiroichi Takemiya finally changed color.

He straightened up suddenly, the essence in his eyes burst out, several feet long, and the momentum on his body skyrocketed, like an abyss like the sea. Even Ying Longhua was a little out of breath.

At this time, Ying Longhua felt that the old man was still the invincible sword saint of the year.

"Zuosu Shrine is one of the most powerful shrines in our country, second only to Ise Daijingu, Zuosu Shrine is in the shrine, almost comparable to the divine realm, especially if he can't kill him at all, even Watanabe Sword Saint can't do anything about him. Chen Beixuan was able to step on the Zuosu Shrine, could it be that he had stepped into the divine realm?" Wu Gong Hong shook his head as he spoke.

"No, no, if he enters the god realm, he won't come to Zuo Xushen. I'm afraid that he has some powerful Huaguo magic weapon in his hand that can restrain Zuo Xushen. After all, the Zuo Whisker God is still a ghost, and his weaknesses are clear, and he is not as powerful as the real God Realm. ā€

At this time, Takemiya Hongichi spoke fluently, not at all like a dying old man, and his face showed a look of eagerness.

Ying Longhua was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly said: "Lord Sword Saint, so we want to ask you to go out of the customs and kill this person." It's just your body..."

Speaking of this, Yinglong Huaqiao's face couldn't help but show a hint of melancholy.

"Hahaha. ā€

Takemiya Hirokazu laughed violently when he heard this, and stood up violently.

His figure swelled like an inflated balloon. The arms, thighs, and arms that were originally thin bulged violently at this time, and soon the muscles were filled with them. A crackling sound sounded from the joints, and the originally thin figure also grew taller. The sparse white hairs on his head all fell out, and then long black and thick hairs grew. Even the teeth regenerate.

But a minute later.

There was no longer the dying old man in front of him, but a slender and tall middle-aged man with a handsome appearance. He jumped to his feet, stepped on the stream, and rushed to the bottom of the waterfall. He pulled out a katana stuck in the rocks of the waterfall.

"Bang dang. ā€

The long knife was pulled up, and with a wave of Takemiya Hongyi's hand, the sword that was several feet long was slashed against the trend. The momentum of this knife was magnificent, and Ying Longhua and the others were vaguely out of breath from afar.

Under the light of the knife, the waterfall tens of meters high was actually divided into two. The mighty waterfall is cut in half from the middle, as if it has been stopped by a dam.

Slash the waterfall with one sword!

At that time, the Kitaniwa River was only able to separate the 10-meter-high waterfall with a single sword. And the waterfall cut by Takemiya Hongichi is not only tens of meters, but twenty or thirty stories high. This means that the aftermath of Takemiya Hongichi's knife is enough to reach nearly 100 meters away!

Seeing this, Ying Longhua and Kuroki Katsu couldn't help but hold their breath and were dumbfounded.

Is this still the power that the Transformation Realm can have?

Wu Gong Hong is afraid that it is not a god realm, and it is only half a step away.

"This is the teacher who crisscrossed the country. Kuroki Katsu trembled with excitement.

And Ying Longhua was already looking at the man standing proudly with a sword under the waterfall with a face full of surprise. With such a strong person, what is Chen Beixuan?

......

Three days later, the Japanese sword saint Takemiya Hongichi made an appointment to fight Chen Beixuan, the first in the Huaguo Heavenly List, at the top of Tokyo.

East Asia Shake!
