Your secret game is absolutely poisonous!

Chapter 131 Witnessing History
"Well done!"

Qi Ji recognized the adventurer's efforts.

With these guys working together, their efficiency exceeded expectations.

"We've cleared the mid-to-late-stage areas of Collapse Canyon and Aquatic Village in one day... and today we have a chance to enter the Palace of Origin!"

"The Ashina Kingdom is not far from being conquered!"

down these days.

The charm of the Ashina chapter is fully revealed!

With so many adventurers united as one, such a grand occasion and scene has never been seen before, which is enough to show that the opening work of the Secret Realm of the Ten Kingdoms in the Foreign Lands is a complete success!
of course.

There are still many corners of Ashina that have not been explored.

There are hidden monsters and hidden plots that have not been discovered or explored by adventurers.

This secret realm chapter will continue to create value for the territory in the future, but the production of the next chapter and new secret realms must also be accelerated.

I gained a lot of mental strength today.

Qi Ji began to prepare to break through the fourth level!

……

At this moment, in the secret realm, after obtaining the fragrant water lotus and the stone of habitation, the red spider lily is still missing the ordinary cherry blossom, and the ingredients for the source of fragrance are complete!

When she returned to Ashina Castle.

But he was stunned by what he saw.

"what happened?!"

The sky was dyed rusty by the thick smoke.

The setting sun was blood-red, and the sounds of killing were everywhere, mixed with the roar of firearms.

Ashina Castle was engulfed in flames of war on all sides, and the outskirts of the city had completely turned into a sea of ​​fire. Traces of fierce fighting between the Ashina people and the imperial troops could be seen in all directions, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt meat and gunpowder.

A brutal war has just ended.

The battle can still be seen in every corner.

Ninja groups such as the Ranba Group, the Yoshitaka Group, and the Lone Shadow Group are still fighting openly and secretly.

The bodies of Ashina soldiers and the regular Red Army of the Imperial Court were everywhere, and the fighting was still going on in the direction of Otemon and several occupied areas.

Such a scene.

All the adventurers were surprised.

"what happened?"

“Why did it become like this?”

"It seems the Imperial Army has launched a formal attack. Ashina Castle is in imminent danger and may not be able to hold out for much longer."

"not good!"

"The inner court forces are also coming for the power of Dragon's Embrace!"

"This means we are running out of time. We must complete the task as soon as possible!"

"..."

original.

According to the settings of the secret realm.

Once you obtain the "Fragrant Lotus" and "Stone of Habitat".

The plot of the Ashina chapter will automatically advance to the later stage.

At this time, the Imperial Army will launch a full-scale attack on Ashina Castle, and the city will completely fall in 24 hours.

Adventurers need to complete the ending within 24 hours, otherwise once Ashina Castle is completely captured and Shenzi Kuro is abducted by the inner court, the challenge will be deemed to have failed.

If the challenge fails.

The plot of the later part of the Ashina chapter will be reset.

You can only challenge it again from this point in time until you reach the main storyline ending.

After understanding all this.

Every adventurer felt a strong sense of urgency.

Higanbana faces the Ashina Castle which is engulfed in war and is constantly being eroded.

She couldn't help but sigh, "War is so cruel. To gain Ashina Castle, to obtain the power of the Dragon's Heir, countless people have died on this land throughout history."

The adventurers were all sighing.

Everything in this world is too real.

It makes people unable to help but bring their own emotions into it.

Feng Zhongmian said, "This situation is about to collapse and the tide has already turned. It is not something that we, a mere passerby, can change."

Nancy Liya nodded. "Yes, after all, we adventurers are just temporary travelers who temporarily assume the identity of wolves and experience life. We have no ability to change the fate of the country or the direction of history."

"The only thing we can do is cut off Long Yin!"

"We must completely eradicate the source of this curse and war for the Ashina Land!"

"..."

of course.

Some people have different ideas.

After all, the lord had leaked the news privately.

When there are enough people who have cleared the secret realm and completed the main storyline.

Miracle City may lower the requirements for plot synchronization and may even open up more ways of playing, such as playing as Genichirō, playing as Ashina Isshin, etc. This may change the fate of Ashina Country.

of course.

These are too far away.

You can only fantasize about it.

The most urgent task is to complete the task!
Higanbana quickly arrived at the castle tower, only to see a large number of Lone Shadow people's corpses inside and outside the castle tower. It seemed that this place had just experienced a very fierce battle.

"not good!"

"I hope nothing will happen to the Son of God!"

The red spider lily quickly came to the top of the castle tower.

As a result, I saw an unexpected figure.

"Hey, it's this Lao Deng. I was just looking for him, and he actually came out on his own."

The person who appeared in the castle tower at this moment was none other than his adoptive father Xiao. Higanbana came back this time with the intention of finding Xiao and obtaining the last ingredient of the source of fragrance, the Changying flower, from him.

……

now.

The dusk is like blood.

The vast sea of ​​clouds is like fire.

Looking around from the castle tower.

It's a picture of the end of a kingdom.

Xiao half-knelt in front of Hirata Kuro as if asking for something.

"I've heard about you. I thought you died three years ago. I never thought you'd betray Ashina and collude with the Imperial Household..."

Jiu Lang remained unmoved by the old ninja and simply said, "Owl, what is your intention in doing all this?"

"How dare I attempt anything?"

Xiao knelt on the ground with a humble look on his face. He slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with sinisterness and ambition: "I just want to personally protect the noble bloodline of the Dragon's Son of God!"

Hirata Jiulang sighed and said, "I didn't expect that even you were blinded by the power of Dragon's Heritage. I have nothing to say to you. Please leave immediately."

Xiao sneered.

No more pretending.

Stand up from the ground.

"Ashina Isshin has been lured away by the Lone Shadows. Given his exhausted physical condition, he will surely have no chance of survival after this battle. No one in Ashina Castle can stop me!"

Jiulang said calmly: "No, even if Master Isshin is gone, there is at least someone who can stop you!"

"Really? If so, please allow me to have a good chat with this person first."

Jiulang retreated from here under Yongzhen's protection.

Xiao looked towards where the red spider lily was hiding, "Wolf, it's been years since we last met. Don't you want to come out and catch up?"

The red spider lily walks into the castle tower.

Faced with a giant ninja with a burly body.

She could feel the oppression from the strong.

You can also feel the complex emotions coming from the wolf.

Higanbana: "Foster father, I thought you were dead."

"That was just a ruse. I'm actually very surprised that you managed to survive."

"I am indeed dead."

Higanbana whispered, "It's just that I was resurrected thanks to the power of the Son of God."

Xiao's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance: "Yes, that's it, this is the power I want, and this is why I planned all this!"

Higanbana asked: "Why?"

"I once followed Ashina Isshin into the war to steal the country, but what did I get in the end? Why does Ashina Isshin get to enjoy all the glory, while I can only hide in a dark corner and no one cares about me."

Owl looked at the riddled Ashina Castle again.

He continued, "No matter how sharp that old man Isshin's sword is, it can't cut through aging. Ashina, this piece of old iron soaked in blood and rust, should have been melted down long ago..."

"...No one can change the inevitable fall of this land. We were nothing more than a bunch of fools clinging to old dreams and trying to stop the tide of history!"

Only then did everyone understand his thoughts and motives.

Xiao was no longer willing to be just an unknown ninja.

The fire of power in his heart burned fiercely, so he wanted to get rid of his shadow identity, truly control his own destiny, and let his name spread throughout Japan.

Owl continued, "Wolf, I once taught you the first rule of ninja: parents are above all else. From now on, the Son of God is no longer your master. I demand that you return to your father!"

The flower of the other shore said calmly, "I can't do it anymore."

Owl showed an expression of disbelief: "What? As a ninja, how can you be swayed by personal feelings!"

Higanbana said firmly, "The ninja you raised died three years ago. Now I have a reason to transcend the commandments, so I will complete my mission to protect the Son of God no matter what!"

Owl sighed sadly.

The whole person collapsed on the ground.

"Wolf, why don't you understand your father's intentions? Your current behavior really disappoints me."

Higanbana ignored Lao Deng's hypocrisy and turned directly towards the Son of God's room. At this moment, a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart.

really!

Still want to sneak attack me?
Higanbana sneered in her heart.

He drew his sword, the Wedge-shaped Maru, to block the blade that attacked from behind. "Hmm, you actually managed to block my blade... It seems you've improved quite a bit over the years!"

Seeing his attack blocked, Xiao retreated ten meters away and took a fighting stance. "Wolf, come on, today is the day for your father to test the results of your years of training!"

The decisive battle between father and son.

This is when the battle officially begins!

All adventurers were attracted by this fierce battle.

Owl is the strongest ninja in Ashina Country. Although he is huge in size, he has sophisticated ninja skills and is very difficult to fight.

He is the adoptive father who picked up the wolf from the battlefield, and he is also the enemy that must be dealt with to advance the main plot. This battle can be said to be a key battle that pushes the characters and the plot to a climax.

Dang Dang Dang!
The two blades kept colliding in the air.

Higanbana adventured along the way and dealt with many powerful enemies, and comprehended many ninja skills. Whether it was the recovery and improvement of the wolf's own strength, or the role-playing and integration of the wolf, she reached an extremely high level.

however.

even so.

She still felt tremendous pressure.

Owl is worthy of being the strongest ninja of Ashina who participated in the war of stealing the country. He not only possesses extremely skilled ninja skills, is good at using various ninja tools and hidden weapons, but also has physical fitness that is not inferior to top samurai.

the most important is.

Wolves are good at clever counterattacks.

This guy Xiao is obviously good at it.

So this battle was unlike any we had ever experienced before.

After more than a dozen rounds, Higanbana felt that her physical strength was being rapidly consumed, but Owl did not feel exhausted at all.

"hateful!"

"Die, you old man!"

Higanbana slashed at the opponent with several blows.

Dang Dang Dang!
Xiao waved his blade to deflect Higanbana's attack. Every collision produced a large amount of sparks, which triggered a perfect counterattack. Higanbana felt a huge force coming at her, almost making her unable to hold the weapon in her hand.

not good!

Xiao immediately threw out several explosive bombs and they exploded in the air.

This left Higanbana with no time to escape, causing her to lose balance on the spot and reveal a fatal flaw.

"idiot!"

"How can you be so reckless!"

Xiao cursed angrily.

The katana, however, showed no mercy.

A knife pierced through the body of the red spider lily.

dead!
Challenge failed!

Higanbana frowned, "I didn't expect Xiao to be so difficult to deal with. I underestimated him!"

At this time, Baihe Jushi, Sanzhu and others also came to the crystal of the red spider lily. They studied the owl's moves and how to deal with this powerful enemy together.

Sanzhu said, "Wolf's swordsmanship and the secret technique of the reverse-blade knife were both learned from Xiao. He knows Wolf's methods too well, so we must be more cautious when dealing with him and not attack rashly."

Baihe Jushi said: "It is best to ensure that every defensive move is a perfect deflection, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack, and try to use other styles of swordsmanship."

Several other bigwigs also gave their suggestions.

Higanbana absorbed these suggestions and once again entered the secret realm to challenge.

The other adventurers were all nervous!
"Although Higanbana is a Level 3 boss, due to the continuous consumption of twenty-one adventurous energy..."

"what?"

"That is to say..."

"You can challenge me four more times at most. If you can't win these four times, today's progress will stop here."

"Whether we can reach the fairyland today depends on this battle!"

"Come on, Mr. Higanbana!"

"..."

Higanbana felt everyone's expectations. Although this made her feel a certain amount of pressure, she was not affected but concentrated on feeling Xiao's moves in order to find the flaws of this powerful enemy.

Dang Dang Dang!
The two fought back and forth in the castle tower.

This time, he played it safe and tried not to counterattack impulsively, making sure to execute a perfect flick of the sword each time, and then countered with Ashina-ryu's swordsmanship and Senpoji's boxing.

It turns out.

After changing tactics.

The effect is still very significant.

He was defeated in about ten rounds during the first round of challenge.

In the second round of fighting, Higanbana persisted for thirty rounds, but was finally hit by Owl's poison powder and gunpowder, revealing her flaws and was killed by the opponent again.

"idiot!"

"You're so careless!"

Xiao cursed again.

"How despicable!"

"This guy has quite a few shady tricks up his sleeve!"

"It's okay, there's progress, try again!"

"..."

Higanbana once again discussed tactics with the adventurers, and at the same time analyzed and disassembled all of Owl's existing moves. After a thorough study, she launched the third challenge.

The third round of challenges had a steadier pace.

The two sides fought for forty rounds in a row.

Xiao's physical strength declined after he failed to attack for a long time, so he deliberately exposed a flaw, allowing Higanbana to misjudge the opportunity and launch an attack, but was directly covered by a smoke bomb.

Followed by.

Several explosive bombs.

A sudden attack.

The red spider lily was defeated again.

The adventurers' hearts were in their throats.

Because everyone knows that the next round is the last one, and if they lose this one, the plot will be unable to move forward today.

Xiao is too difficult to deal with!
He knew wolves too well.

He himself is also extremely strong.

Therefore, it is not easy to defeat him!
The Black Stone Hammer King then said, "Come on, Higanbana Boss! Even if we don't win, it doesn't matter. We've made enough progress and achieved a lot today!"

"Yes!"

"The owl is indeed cunning and powerful!"

"It doesn't matter if we can't win for now!"

"It's just to let him run around and act arrogantly for another day!"

"..."

The adventurers obviously felt that the chances of defeating Xiao today were not high, so they all comforted Higanbana and gave her a way out to prevent the big guy from feeling too much pressure.

however.

The more so.

The more the red spider lily wants to win.

I closed my eyes and meditated for fifteen minutes.

Replay all the moves and methods in your mind.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, she once again entered the secret realm to challenge again, starting the final duel of the day.

"This battle must be won!"

Higanbana completely entered into the acting state. Although she had a strong desire to win before the fight, her heart was as calm as an ancient well after the fight. She truly fell into a state of forgetting herself and the world, and having no sadness or joy.

Deflecting the attacks again and again.

Explosive bombs, smoke bombs, gunpowder, poison powder, darts...

Higanbana has memorized all of Owl's methods and combination changes, using precise and perfect parrying swords to consume Owl's momentum, and attacking with Senpoji's fists and kicks as well as Ashina-ryu swordsmanship, thus reducing the number of times she is cracked and countered.

After fifty or sixty rounds.

Although the owl tried every possible means.

But he could never make the wolf reveal any flaw.

Instead, he was physically exhausted and finally revealed a flaw after a sword fight.

This time, Higanbana seized the opportunity without mercy, cut off Xiao's weapon with one knife, then circled behind him like lightning, stabbed into Xiao's body with one knife, and came out from the heart.

"I'll give you this knife back!"

"As expected of my son... Well done!"

The owl was not angry or afraid, he just laughed and then fell to the ground.

At this moment, Higanbana breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt complicated emotions. Although Xiao was cold, cunning and unscrupulous, he did not seem to be a person without emotions at all.

He would curse when Higanbana made a mistake.

They will also praise the wolf when the victory or defeat is decided and everything is in vain.

Perhaps for this hero, the wolf is not only a tool, but also a kind of emotional sustenance.

This character may be more complicated than imagined, and no one knows what he is thinking, but no matter what, the winner is decided!
Higanbana searched Owl's body.

Immediately find the evergreen incense wood he carried with him.

This time, not only did the red spider lily show joy, but all the adventurers present cheered!
"All are here!"

"All materials have been collected!"

"I've collected the three main ingredients for the Origin of Fragrance: the Stone of Habitat, the Fragrant Water Lotus, and the Ever-Cherry Fragrance Wood. Now, as long as I make the Origin of Fragrance, I can go to the Fairyland. And as long as I go to the Fairyland, I'll have a chance to obtain Dragon Tears!"

"Dragon Tears, Ice Tears, Immortal Slash, Transformed into a Son of God..."

"We are so close to completing the 'Return of the Dragon' project!"

"..."

The last one.

The red spider lily successfully counterattacked.

It was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise!

All the adventurers in Miracle City are full of anticipation.

Because this means that we can go one step further today, and the final destination and ultimate goal of the Ashina chapter are within reach. Each of them will become a witness to this wonderful history and this legendary adventure!
