Chapter 164: Eight Hundred Bhikshunis

The ordination monk who guarded the cave was named Yabai Bhikshuni, and she was supposed to be a figure in Japanese mythology and legend.

It is said that this woman, whose real name was Takahashi, accidentally ate the flesh of a mermaid caught by her father, and as a result, she gained a long life span of up to 1,000 years.

It is said that she once used senshu to give up 200 years of her life to the emperor, and in her later years returned to her hometown of Wakasa and died on a hunger strike next to a mountain spring at the age of 800, which was called the 800 bhikshuni by the world.

Lu Xiao doesn't know much about Japanese mythology, and he doesn't know how much of this legend was invented by emperors in order to raise his own value.

The Emperor's Human Declaration warns.

The experience of the eight hundred bhikshunis in the wolf world is different from myths and legends, she has lived a long time as a worm-possessed person, and exists as the gatekeeper of the Source Palace.

Coming to the deepest part of the Aquatic Village, Lu Xiao could see a closed stone gate from a distance, and in front of the stone gate was a square with open terrain.

Just from the terrain of the square here, you can guess that there will be a battle, and when Lu Xiao entered the square, he took off the immortal slash on his back and put it on his waist, and took a posture of Juhe slash and moved forward cautiously.

Approaching the center of the square, a translucent phantage dressed as a nun suddenly appeared, holding a large naginata in her hand.

"Aha~"

A strange laugh came out of her mouth, and the phantom nun wearing a smiley mask swung her naginata knife and attacked Lu Xiao.

"Boom!"

The powerful and heavy naginata knife smashed towards Lu Xiao head, this kind of long weapon commonly used by martial arts women was as light as a weight in the hands of the phantom ring breaking monk, and the number of sword techniques was extremely flexible and changeable.

Lu Xiao retreated to the right to avoid the straight slash of the naginata, and was about to swing the cross slash when the sixth sense suddenly warned him.

"Hahaha!"

The smiling welcome monk suddenly spun his huge body and rushed towards Lu Xiao, and the naginata knife that fell to the ground also spun along with her movements.

"Bell!"

Using the scabbard to block the Phantom Ring Breaker's large-scale spinner knife attack, before Lu Xiao could counterattack, the enemy suddenly jumped backwards lightly, re-narrowing the distance between him and Lu Xiao.

'This nimble body and the ultimate proficiency of the naginata...... I'm afraid it will be very passive to deal with it. ’

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao pulled out the immortal slash from the scabbard with a "bang", and put on a big upper posture of taking the initiative to attack.

Most of the reed's moves are unpretentious, and they can often exert great power in close combat, using powerful attacks to suppress the enemy and break the opponent's defenses.

But in the face of such a flexible opponent, it would be inappropriate to use the basic moves of the reed celebrity.

"Suck~exhal~"

Taking a deep breath, Lu Xiao changed his attack routine and used a rather fancy combo move instead.

"Flying pontoon!"

With his quick moves, the Phantom Ring Breaker Monk can spend most of his energy on blocking, and he can no longer be as ethereal as before.

"Giant Ninja Thrust!"

When a set of moves was exhausted, Lu Xiao immediately changed his moves, and launched a stab at the Phantom Ring Breaking Monk with an explosive force under his feet.

After all, Lu Xiao is not a big man with a huge physique and amazing body mass.

When he uses the Giant Ninja Thrust, he spins in mid-air to increase the damage of the breakthrough.

Although the Phantom Ring Breaking Monk, who was caught off guard, dodged Lu Xiao's frontal stab, the purpose of this move was not just to attack.

Lu Xiao, who had completed the rapid displacement, appeared behind the Phantom Ring Breaking Monk, and a surging sword qi was generated under the combination of mysteries.

"Fly through the whirlpool clouds!"

The wolf world can be called the most gorgeous and fancy sword technique unfolded, and the ultra-high-speed combo wrapped in crimson sword qi completely suppressed the phantom ring breaking monk who had not had time to turn around, and a complete set of sword techniques was completely slashed at her back.

"Ahhh

The Phantom Ring Breaker was still laughing weirdly, and her phantom body gradually dissipated under the excessive blow, and the stone door to the sedan chair cave also opened.

What she defeated here was only an illusion of the true identity of eight hundred bhikshunis, and compared to her main body, there would definitely be a certain gap in strength.

Even so, Lu Xiao could roughly guess the attack routine of the eight hundred bhikshunis through the actions of the Phantom Ring Breaking Monk, which would be of great help to her when she really faced her in the Palace of Origin in the future.

Entering the stone cave through the stone gate, the first thing that caught Lu Xiao's eyes was a knot hanging from the ceiling of the cave, and there were several small waterfalls around the knot.

Under the knot is a sedan chair that looks ornate but rather old and dilapidated, and in front of the palanquin is an altar, on which a large number of stones of unknown origin are piled up, one of which is particularly conspicuous with a shimmering sea urchin-shaped stone.

"This is the Stone of the Nightstay."

When Lu Xiao picked up the stone of the knot, he also found a few rows of small characters on the wooden table of the altar.

"The end of the night is a good omen."

"The fragrance is overflowing, let's serve the sedan chair."

"Put it in the portable shrine and you'll be greeted by you."

"Is it fragrant?" Lu Xiao tossed the stone up and down: "The last material is also in hand, go back and refine the incense of the source." ”

……

When Lu Xiao returned to the col where the water was originally located, Kumano Jinzaemon had already bandaged his wounds, and his mental state seemed to have improved a lot.

Due to the aftermath of the Aquatic Rin, the villagers of Shuisheng Village still did not dare to approach this area at will, and Kumano Jinzaemon was safe to rest here.

Just as Lu Xiao had guessed, Kumano Jinzaemon knew a convenient passage to the outside world.

The task has been completed, and there is still a drag oil bottle behind him, which is difficult to sneak through, this time Lu Xiao chose to kill all the way through the center of the aquatic village.

The villagers of Shuisheng Village themselves are not very strong in combat, after all, they are just ordinary farmers, but because of the characteristics of not being able to kill, people feel a headache.

Immortal beheading all living beings equally, all the villagers who were hacked by Lu Xiao failed to resurrect, the center of the aquatic village was killed by Lu Xiao out of a bloody way, Kumano Jinzaemon looked at Lu Xiao's eyes as if he was watching someone kill a murderer.

"Don't look at me like that."

Lu Xiao rolled his eyes angrily at Kumano Formation Saemon: "These villagers can't be considered alive anymore, and it would be good to let them go early and be blissful." ”

Traveling downstream from the stream that flows through Mitsubu Village, the Kumano Jinzaemon leads a shortcut in the middle of the stream.

On the way to find a shortcut, Lu Xiao and Jinzaemon unexpectedly found a lone shadow here, probably who slipped in with Kumano Jinzaemon.

Lu Xiao gestured to the Jinzaemon to signal him to hide aside and not make a sound, and quietly slipped behind the lone shadow who seemed to be looking for something, and the Hidden Blade stabbed him in the back into the heart.

"Ugh!"

The lonely shadows didn't expect that they would be backstabbed one day, and they fell to their knees in the stream and died.

Jinzaemon looked at the corpse of the lone shadow with palpitations: "I was actually followed, and sure enough, I was in a trance and neglected to guard against it in the lure of the shamisen, but fortunately he didn't make a move halfway, otherwise ......"

Lu Xiao shook off the blood stained on the Hidden Blade: "This guy should act alone, and if we solve him, we are not afraid of news leakage, but we still have to speed up our actions, and the inner government is getting tighter and tighter." ”

Following Kumano Jinzaemon through a hidden mountain crack, Lu Xiao discovered that the exit on the other side of the secret passage was actually in the valley where the lion ape's drinking place was located.

"Is it so connected, no wonder the lion apes moved here after losing their mate."
