Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 318 The Sword Saint of the Cherry Blossom Country

The Jingfeng Shrine was destroyed.

Guan Shaoqing then drifted away, beginning his search for his next target.

Shortly after Guan Shaoqing left, people from the Sakura Kingdom began to arrive at Jingfeng Shrine to check the situation, following the earlier commotion. What they found upon arrival was a ruin covering an area of ​​several hundred meters in diameter and a huge crater in the center that was nearly a hundred meters in diameter.

Even from a high altitude or a close look at the surroundings, it can be clearly seen that this huge crater, which is nearly 100 meters in diameter, is shaped like a human hand.

As for the original Jingfeng Shrine, it has long since disappeared, leaving only ruins.

Seeing the state of the Jingfeng Shrine before him.

All the Japanese people who rushed over after hearing the earlier commotion and saw the scene before them were shocked and widened their eyes.

Subsequently.

The news of the destruction of Jingfeng Shrine spread like wildfire in Nagasaki, causing a huge uproar. Countless people in Japan couldn't help but wonder if Guan Shaoqing had already arrived.

And soon, they got the results.

Less than a day later, following the destruction of the Jingfeng Shrine, three more shrines and two temples in Nagasaki Prefecture were destroyed, thus bringing the total number of shrines and temples in Nagasaki Prefecture, the land of cherry blossoms, to zero.

At the same time, Guan Shaoqing's inscription was also found in these shrines and temples that were subsequently destroyed.

[With each punch, the cherry blossom island crumbles; with each step, the soil of Japan is trampled. The demons of Nagasaki are annihilated today; the monsters of Tokyo will be slaughtered in the future.]

signature--

Guan Shaoqing!
In an instant, with a loud bang.

As Guan Shaoqing's message spread, the entire Sakura Country was in an uproar, but it was one of anger.

Guan Shaoqing's message was undoubtedly a blatant reminder and contempt for the Sakura Kingdom, especially the two phrases "Nagasaki demons" and "Tokyo demons," which clearly regarded his entire Great Sakura Empire as demons and monsters.

Can this be tolerated?
I simply can't stand even a little bit!
"idiot!"

"Bagaya road!"

"Damn Guan Shaoqing, how dare he come to my great Sakura Empire and be so presumptuous."

“Those people in Nagasaki are simply a bunch of useless trash. So many of them couldn’t even handle Guan Shaoqing, bringing shame to my entire Great Sakura Empire. They should all commit seppuku.”

"The majesty of my great Sakura Empire is absolutely not to be challenged."

"Gentlemen, let us kill this fiend together, for the dignity of our great Sakura Empire."

"kill!"

"."

Guan Shaoqing seemed to have suddenly ignited the public anger throughout the Great Sakura Empire. Countless people were even more furious, wishing they could devour Guan Shaoqing alive, and spontaneously organized to intercept and kill him.

But a pity.

Anger can be overcome by overwhelming power.

The next day, Guan Shaoqing destroyed all the shrines and temples in Saga Prefecture, the land of cherry blossoms.

On the third day, Guan Shaoqing destroyed all the shrines and temples in Miyazaki Prefecture, the land of cherry blossoms.

On the seventh day, Guan Shaoqing annihilated all the shrines, temples, and cultivation sects on the entire Kyushu island of the Sakura Kingdom.

On the eighth day, Guan Shaoqing landed in the four kingdoms.
During this period, the Sakura Kingdom launched countless counterattacks and ambushes against Guan Shaoqing, including military encirclements, poison assassinations, and even some cultivators secretly driving demons and ghosts to carry out suicide attacks on Guan Shaoqing with cannonballs and explosives.

Unfortunately, none of these methods worked.

With Guan Shaoqing's current strength, unless a master of the same level comes along to intercept him, it is basically a pipe dream to deal with him. As for hot weapons such as artillery shells and explosives, they can indeed threaten him if the yield is sufficient, but the premise is that they can hit him first.

A martial arts grandmaster achieves unity of inner and outer strength, attains divine mastery in martial arts, and possesses the ability to sense the movement of a cicada before the autumn wind blows.

Now, anyone within a hundred meters of Guan Shaoqing can sense any movement or disturbance. In addition, given his current strength and the fact that he can break five times the speed of sound at full speed, hitting him with artillery shells or explosives is practically impossible.

"Rumble--"

A few days later.

With Guan Shaoqing's palm strike, the last shrine on Shikoku Island in Japan was destroyed.

Guan Shaoqing then shattered the entire cultivation world of Shikoku Island in the Sakura Country.

Immediately afterwards, Guan Shaoqing also stepped into the land of Honshu, the land of cherry blossoms.

Meanwhile, the entire nation of Sakura, which had been clamoring to intercept and kill Guan Shaoqing and teach him a lesson, fell silent. A sense of panic began to spread throughout the country. Guan Shaoqing's displayed strength was simply too terrifying; he was like an invincible war god, sweeping through Sakura as if it were empty land since his arrival, and now he had even conquered Kyushu and Shikoku.

Even other major powers around the world were shocked by this situation, and their regard for Guan Shaoqing was raised once again.

Guan Shaoqing's personal strength was truly astonishing.

It's one thing that Guan Shaoqing single-handedly broke through the heart of the Manchu heartland, the capital, and killed the Manchu regent, Prince Su; it could be said that it was because the Manchu forces were too powerful.

But Japan is now a globally recognized superpower.

Now, they've been driven deep into Guan Shaoqing's territory and there's nothing they can do about it.

If Guan Shaoqing really manages to break through the capital of Sakura Kingdom this time, then what country or person in the world could stop him? Wouldn't he be able to kill whomever he wants?

At this moment, whether it was the Kingdom of Sakura or other countries around the world, they all began to unanimously hope that someone would appear to stop Guan Shaoqing.

Otherwise, if Guan Shaoqing were truly invincible, that would be terrifying.

A few more days passed in the blink of an eye.

Guan Shaoqing continued his rampage through the Sakura Kingdom as if it were his own backyard.

At this time, the cultivators and cultivation forces within Sakura began to disperse and hide, and no one dared to defend their main camps anymore.

But Guan Shaoqing didn't care about any of that and continued to destroy shrines and temples wherever he encountered them.

Because while the monks of the Sakura Kingdom could hide, the spirits and deities enshrined in the shrines and temples could not. Most of the enshrined spirits and deities were earthbound spirits, and even if they hid, Guan Shaoqing could easily track them down with their statues.

But that's about it.

The Japanese swordsman Yagyu Osamu finally couldn't resist challenging Guan Shaoqing to a duel.

As soon as the news came out.

The entire nation of Sakura was instantly excited, and countless people spread the news, because in the minds of countless Sakura people, since Yagyu Osamu had chosen to make a move, he must be confident in defeating Guan Shaoqing.

After all, Yagyu Osamu was recognized as a sword saint and one of the two strongest swordsmen in their country of Sakura, and he was invincible and undefeated throughout his life.

"Great! The Sword Saint has finally made his move."

"With the Sword Saint taking action, he will surely be able to kill Guan Shaoqing."

"Let's see how arrogant Guan Shaoqing can be now."

"The Sword Saint is the most powerful. He is the Sword Saint of our empire. He can surely kill the enemy with his own hands."

"In this world, no one can catch the great sword of the Sword Saint!"

"."

Countless people in the cherry blossom country were thrilled.

at the same time.

The Yagyu family.

“Father, are you really going? There’s a saying in China: ‘A great reputation is never undeserved.’ Guan Shaoqing is the number one person in China, so his strength is definitely not to be underestimated. Besides, now that Guan Shaoqing has come to our door, if anyone should be anxious, it should be the Emperor. If anyone should take action, it should be the Grand Preceptor.”

Yagyu Osamu's children couldn't help but look at him with concern and offer their advice.

The rest of the Yagyu family didn't really agree with Yagyu Osamu's decision, because it was too risky.

Although there is no doubt that Yagyu Osamu is very strong.

But Guan Shaoqing was not so easy to deal with. A man who could break through the heart of the Manchu territory and go to the Manchu capital alone to take the life of the Manchu regent was a man of considerable strength.

Although the Qing Dynasty performed poorly in modern times, its failures were mainly due to its backwardness in military and weaponry, not because its generals were incompetent. On the contrary, in terms of generals alone, the Qing Dynasty was not necessarily weaker than any other country in the world.

Guan Shaoqing was able to defeat the Manchu Qing dynasty single-handedly, so his strength is beyond doubt.

Even if Yagyu Osamu were to make a move, he might not be able to win.

If Yagyu Osamu fails to defeat Guan Shaoqing this time, it will have a significant impact on the entire Yagyu family. At best, their power will be greatly reduced; at worst, they could be wiped out.

Therefore, the entire Yagyu family did not approve of Yagyu Osamu's decision.

Yagyu Osamu was well aware of what his family members were thinking, but he also had his own principles:
"A swordsman should forge ahead without hesitation, allowing no room for retreat. Moreover, my current level has reached its peak, and it is difficult to advance further. I crave worthy opponents who can help me glimpse a higher realm."
