Your secret game is absolutely poisonous!

Chapter 118 Success
The insect-Buddha form of Master Xianfeng.

It makes adventurers feel horrified and sad.

He also failed to become a perfect insect possessor like the immortal Hanbei.

For decades, consciousness has been eroded and eaten away by parasites. It should have been like the parasite-infested monks in the Buddhist temples, with humanity and consciousness completely devoured by the parasites, leaving only an immortal shell.

But he persisted for decades with his will!
It was because the balance was broken by the heavy blow from Genichirō.

So at this moment, Master Xianfeng was dominated by his insect nature and unable to communicate.

He clasped his hands together and remained in a cross-legged meditation posture. The flying insects formed a Buddha's halo behind him. The six insect arms extending from his back seemed like six insect legs supporting his body in a cross-legged sitting posture.

No attack was launched immediately.

The monk Xianfeng began to chant scriptures.

It really looks like a weird and twisted insect Buddha.

When the sound of chanting Buddha's name was distorted into the sharp chirping of insects, the ground of the lotus pond changed, and hundreds and thousands of strange insects emerged from the ground.

"what's the situation?"

The sight of the red spider lily made her scalp tingle, and she hurriedly used a blowtorch to release the flame, but it was endless and could not be burned out.

Soon, the red spider lily's body was covered with poisonous insects. The feeling of being bitten and eroded by venom made her lose her fighting power quickly and she was overwhelmed by the sea of ​​insects.

"Since all living things suffer, even being bitten by insects is a form of liberation."

dead!
Challenge failed.

Everyone looked at each other in shock.

Although the adventurer has experienced many BOSS battles along the way, this BOSS battle gives people a completely different feeling.

"It's so difficult!"

"I do not believe!"

"No matter how difficult it is, there is always a way to win!"

"..."

Adventurers such as Higanbana challenged the enemy seven or eight times in a row.

Without exception, they were all defeated by the Immortal Peak Master in the form of the Insect Buddha.

The Insect Buddha has many moves, but the most difficult one is to summon a swarm of insects. The insects hidden in the lotus pond seem to be endless, and even insects will run out from the Buddha statues in all directions.

How to fight this?
It’s hard to even get close!

"Thousand Buddha Valley is the home turf of Master Xianfeng. It's unrealistic for us to defeat him here. Is it possible to lure him out in his first form?"

"Makes sense!"

"If we can move the battlefield outside of Buddha Valley, this battle might become much easier."

The adventurer tried it immediately.

It turns out that it doesn't work at all.

Although the Master of Xianfeng had lost consciousness, he was still guarding the Thousand Buddha Valley. It was impossible to lure him out.

Another series of setbacks.

Just when the adventurer was stuck here.

To the point where I'm at a loss as to what to do.

Higanbana discovered something: "I know how to crack it!"

Another challenge.

There's not much to say about the first stage.

Higanbana fought five times and never lost to the worm-possessed Master Xianfeng.

It only took her a few rounds to transform into the Insect Buddha form, and the Immortal Peak Master in the Insect Buddha form began to chant Buddhist scriptures again, summoning countless insects.

"Ring the bell!"

"Blow it up!"

The red spider lily crushes a seed.

A loud explosion spread from the fingertips in all directions.

When the invisible sound waves enveloped the surrounding area, the poisonous insects and strange insects in a large area became transparent and disappeared.

When seeing this scene.

The other adventurers' eyes widened.

Nancy Liya immediately said, "Ah, so that's how it is. I should have seen it long ago. These bugs are not real entities!"

"Illusion?"

"I see!"

"It turns out this Xianfeng Master is also a guy who is proficient in illusion. No wonder we have been suppressed by him all this time."

"..."

Bet right.

The red spider lily was ecstatic.

However, now is not the time to be happy. We don't have many bells in hand, so we must act quickly.

The illusion was broken.

The adventurer came quickly.

The Insect Buddha immediately urged the swarm of flying insects behind him to attack.

These swarms of insects that formed the distorted Buddha's halo rushed towards the red spider lily like wasps, but were broken by the latter using a blowtorch to release flames.

"go to hell!"

Higanbana chopped the Insect Buddha repeatedly, forcing it to retreat step by step.

At this moment, a red light appeared in her abdomen, and she stabbed it without hesitation.

The next moment, a sharp insect sound came from the Insect Buddha's body. He lost his strength and fell to the ground, but he was not dead. Several giant centipedes struggled and wanted to attack.

"Unkillable!"

Higanbana realized.

The parasite is immortal.

It would be useless even if its head was chopped off or it was cut into pieces.

Not sure what to do? Chop it into pieces and eliminate the threat first!

At this time, a hoarse and weak voice came:
"Wait a minute."

Master Xianfeng sat up.

Several centipede monsters were forcibly taken into the body.

The monk on Xianfeng Mountain turned into a human-shaped mummy again, with his hands clasped together and chanting Buddhist mantras. Although he still looked hideous, he seemed to have calmed down.

"This is……"

"A brief return to rationality."

"It turns out that even though this guy can't be killed, defeating him will allow him to regain his sanity for a short time. Even if it only lasts for a short while, it's enough for us!"

"..."

While the adventurers were discussing.

Master Xianfeng spoke again: "This old monk cannot sustain this state for much longer... Ninja of the Son of God... The thing you are looking for... is in the Buddhist temple ahead."

Higanbana was stunned.

Master Xianfeng didn't say much.

He simply added, "Go!"

Red spider lily came under the giant Buddha statue and found that there was indeed an entrance to the Buddhist temple. She walked in carefully, but what she saw made her open her eyes wide in surprise.

The entire Xianfeng Temple.

It's full of filth and dirt.

The forbidden area of ​​Buddha Valley is even more twisted and terrifying.

This Buddhist temple is located in the innermost part of the Buddha Valley. As a result, not only are there no insects or insect eggs, it can even be described as spotless. The space of the Buddhist temple is not very large, and there are golden Buddha statues on all sides.

The adventurers were all surprised.

Some people speculated on the lord's intentions based on the scene design.

"I think."

“This scene…”

"Maybe there's some kind of metaphor."

"Although Xianfeng Temple is occupied by insects."

"But the temple and the deepest part of Master Xianfeng's heart."

"There is always an inviolable pure land of Buddha nature."

"..."

Without giving it much thought, Higanbana walked to the altar in the middle. There were no offerings on the altar, only an ancient copper bell placed there, which was a bit like the young master's guardian bell that opened the Hirata branch.

Ring the bell.

Closed his eyes.

Facing the magnificent golden Buddha statues, she clasped her hands together and worshiped sincerely.

The Buddhist temple is quiet.

Only an ethereal echo remains.

When the ringing sound in your ears completely disappears.

Higanbana opened her eyes again, but found that the surrounding environment had changed, and a quaint wooden house appeared in front of her.

Walk into it.

Higanbana saw it with surprise.

A girl who looked to be in her teens with beautiful eyes and delicate features was sitting in the hall.

Feng Zhongmian immediately realized something: "The girl's clothes are the same as the corpses discarded in the cave. Those corpses were all failed attempts to create the Son of God. So this person in front of me must be the only one who succeeded in becoming the Son of God."

Higanbana was shocked.

Is this the one who has transformed into the Son of God?

The artificial Son of God created by Master Xianfeng!
When the Goddess saw the adventurer, she showed a hint of surprise and then asked, "It's you? I didn't expect you to find this place. May I ask why you are here?"

This sound.

There's no mistake. She's the child who once gave the adventurer a telepathic message.

Higanbana said bluntly: "I came here to find the Immortal Slash."

Transformed into a son of God: "Do you know that the Undying Slash is a sword that cannot be pulled out?"

"heard."

"Unable to be pulled out means that no one has ever pulled out this knife, because everyone who has tried to pull it out has died."

The Transformed Son of God reminded him again: "Even so, do you still want to try?"

Higanbana: "I must try!"

"In that case... I understand!"

The goddess opened an old wooden box in front of her and saw an ancient large sword lying quietly inside. She made a gesture of invitation.

"If you are ready, please take it."

This is the Immortal Slash? !
The adventurers were all excited.

Without any hesitation, Higanbana took out the Undead Slash from the wooden box. However, the moment the blade was pulled out, a cold aura suddenly burst out, causing her heart to stop suddenly.

Is this the curse of the Undead Slash?
Killing people instantly without being seen is really powerful!

The red spider lily lost all its strength and fell to the ground.

When the Goddess saw the adventurer fall in front of her, there was no surprise or accident on her face. She just sighed softly, then put her hands together to pray for his salvation.

Who would have guessed.

at this time.

Something she didn't expect happened.

A crimson light emerged from Higanbana's body, allowing her to instantly recover all her body functions and stand up from the ground again.

"This is... the power of Dragon's Embrace!"

The Son of God was shocked: "You are the bearer of the Dragon's Curse!"

Without saying a word, Higanbana picked up the Undying Sword again and pulled it out easily this time. An ominous red aura lingered on the ancient blade.

The adventurers all cheered.

"Success!"

"Is this the Immortal Slash?"

"Wow, this is so cool!"

“A knife that can kill without killing, can this knife explode?
“It has to be possible!”

"I must get this knife. It's a top-notch piece even for my collection!"

"..."

Higanbana gently swung the Immortal Slash in the air, like a brush drawing a red ink mark in the air, and then struck a handsome pose.

"This Immortal Slash...I'll take it!"

Although it looks very handsome, Higanbana can feel that as long as the Undying Slash is unsheathed, it will continuously absorb the user's physical strength and cause rapid consumption.

It seems that this knife is strong.

But it is not suitable as a primary weapon.

Suitable only as a tool for killing or execution.

Otherwise, if he directly used the Immortal Slash to fight, his body would probably be hollowed out after just a few rounds.

Higanbana put away the Immortal Slash, and the mission of entering Xianfeng Temple was successfully completed. She then had a conversation with the Son of God.

"So you are a ninja serving the Dragon's Son."

The Son of God asked, "Why are you looking for the Undying Slash?"

Higanbana answered truthfully: "Go to the fairyland to obtain dragon tears... and use it to cut off the immortality!"

"I see. I've seen in books the method of severing the Dragon's Blood... You and the Dragon's Blood Godson both hate this immortal power, right?"

"Not bad!"

Transformed into a Son of God, he sighed, "What a twist of fate! I am the Son of God forged by Xianfeng Temple, carrying a false Dragon's heir. Of all the children, I am the only one who has lived to grow up."

Although the red spider lily already knew it.

But she still expressed sympathy for the child.

However, the Son of God still doesn't know why he was created.

She probably thought that she was created purely for the monks of Xianfeng Temple to steal the power of immortality, but in fact, Master Xianfeng's real plan was exactly the opposite.

Higanbana: "Please accept my condolences!"

The Transformed Son of God said, "Although I don't know if severing the Dragon's Blood is the right approach, I have witnessed with my own eyes how the pursuit of immortality can lead people astray, and I am disgusted by this..."

She paused and continued, "So, Shenzi's ninja, if there's anything I can be of assistance to you in the future, I hope to lend a hand!"

When I heard this.

The adventurers' eyes lit up.

Is this person who has transformed into the Son of God so wise?

I just don’t know how to implement the “Dragon’s Return” plan. I have to ask Master Xianfeng for help on this matter.

The red spider lily did not stay for long.

Ring the illusion bell and return to the Buddhist temple again.

She then walked out of the Buddhist hall and came to the lotus pond, only to see that the Immortal Peak Master was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, but he looked even weaker, and a certain violent and crazy aura was continuing to grow.

"Ninja of the God's Son...it seems you have completed your mission..."

Master Xianfeng said in a hoarse voice, "Please be careful of Genichirō... He has already obtained... Tomoe's Undying Slash..."

Hear this.

The adventurers were all shocked.

They have learned that there are two Undead Swords.

One of them had been buried with Tomoe.

Not long ago, Ashina Genichirō led the Yoshitaka Clan to attack Senpou-ji Temple. Senpou-sensei probably told Genichirō the whereabouts of the other Immortal Sword under compulsion.

"The other Undying Sword was buried with Tomoe."

"And Tomoe is Genichirō's mentor!"

"Is this guy going to dig up Tomoe's grave just to get the Undying Slash?"

"With Genichiro's character..."

"This kind of thing is totally possible!"

"This guy is still that Shit Ichiro!"

"..."

Although the adventurer despised Genichirō, he also felt that this should not be a bad thing. Genichirō probably didn't know that there were two Undying Slashes, so he would not think that the adventurer also had one.

The next showdown.

Both sides have immortal bodies.

Both sides have the Undead Slash that can restrain the Undead.

Then we have to see who has the more sophisticated means!

What is there for adventurers to fear? Ashina Country is just a secret world.

They can lose a hundred times or a thousand times, but as long as they defeat Genichirō completely once, it will be enough!

"Boss Higanbana."

"Quickly ask Master Xianfeng."

"How are we going to carry out the Dragon's Return plan?"

"..."

The reason why Higanbana came back here was naturally for this, but before she could ask, Master Xianfeng seemed to have guessed what she was thinking.

"I have left the method of returning home in the library..."

"Ninja of the Son of God, please let Long Yin return home!"

The condition of the Immortal Peak Master was deteriorating, and his words were becoming increasingly difficult. "This old monk has completed what he was supposed to do... Now use the Immortal Slash in your hand... to send me off on my final journey!"

Higanbana asked: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

The Immortal Peak Master clasped his hands together and said, "Behead it! This corpse should have been sent to hell long ago!"

Higanbana pulled out the Immortal Slash from behind her and stabbed it into the body of the person on the fairy peak. She could clearly feel some mysterious energy being released from the Immortal Slash.

The body of Master Xianfeng began to crack rapidly.

next moment.

There was a loud bang.

The decayed body of the man on the Immortal Peak shattered like a piece of weathered rotten wood at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the end only a pile of charred residue remained.

The adventurer successfully eliminated the first undead.

This knife test also fully proved that from now on the adventurer will have the ability to kill the undead, and this knife will play an important role in the next action.

Xianfeng Temple plot.

Now you are done.

Although the plot is not very long.

Adventurers, however, find it very exciting and thought-provoking.

This journey not only yielded great rewards such as the Immortal Slash and the Transformation into a Son of God, but also allowed him to discover the stories of the Master of Xianfeng and the previous generation of the Dragon Son of God.

The history of Ashina gradually became clear.

The adventurers are getting closer and closer to the ultimate secret behind the scenes!
Qi Ji was following the exploration progress behind the scenes, and when he saw this he nodded with satisfaction.

The exploration progress of the Ashina chapter has reached more than half, and the only three important areas left are the Aquatic Village, the Fallen Valley, and the Palace of Origin. The efficiency of the adventurers is really amazing.

That being the case.

Territory development.

Planning the next steps with the secret realm.

It's time to put it on the agenda.
