Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I pioneered a divine kingdom of faith.

Chapter 380 Sleepless Night

At this time, it was snowing in Ashina Castle, and it was also night.

There were hardly any guards in the city.

Sekiro took a deep breath and floated away like a phantom. As he passed through Ashina Castle, he discovered many spies and foreign enemies.

But he didn't stop; instead, he flew directly towards Ashina Castle's main castle.

Ninjas have incredibly sharp senses.

But he was even faster!

In just a few minutes, they had broken in.

Furthermore, they accurately locked onto Yongzhen's aura, and there was another rather powerful aura in that pavilion, which was probably the sword saint of Ashina Castle!

I didn't expect to see him so soon!

Swish.

A gust of wind howled in the night sky.

When the ninja on night watch looked back, he found that he saw nothing.

The woman sheathed her sword, turned, and went downstairs.

Even enemies within the inner court wouldn't infiltrate from this side.

In my youth, I wandered around secretly learning martial arts. Now in middle age, I am still working hard for this dilapidated country because of my great strength.

"Don't be so nervous, he means no harm..." Ashina Isshin said, then looked apologetically at the ninja in front of him.

"You seem to be very capable!"

As Sekiro landed in front of the attic window, a sharp sword aura rushed towards him.

"I really want to know why you saved me. Since Ashina chose to destroy the Hirata clan, why save my enemy?"

"letter."

Ding.

Let's sit down and talk..."

pat.

She remained very vigilant.

"Yes."

Its fragrant aroma indicates it's no ordinary product.

How could there be enemies?

As the two were talking, Yongzhen brought up a pot of tea.

Sekiro lifted his shirt and laughed happily, "The power bestowed by God is not from insects that defile this country, but from the true power given to me by God."

She rushed upstairs, and when she saw Sekiro in the moonlight, she couldn't help but exclaim, "What happened to you...?"

The pupils shrank sharply.

"No...it's probably just a rumor!"

He had just woken up.

However, they were unaware that Sekiro, using wind magic, had crossed the canyon and arrived at Isshin Ashina's residence.

A cyan wind shield blocked his way.

The dull thud startled Yongzhen from her sleep.

The speed is dazzling!

At the same time, he also saw Sekiro's hand.

But Sekiro remained completely still.

He then continued, "Actually, many years ago, I handed things over to my adopted son, Genichiro. You know I have no children."

"If I said that Genichiro did it all, would you believe me?"

Ashina Castle is situated in a treacherous location; their side is a sheer cliff with no foothold whatsoever.

"What's wrong?"

"That's fine! Yongzhen, go make some tea..."

Why did I end up here?

"Thank you, beautiful lady. I came here to ask you some questions, but... it seems that it was this sword saint who saved my life!"

After all, he was a ninja who could threaten Isshin Ashina.

And what is that blue thing?

It actually managed to block Isshin Ashina's sword energy!!!

It should be noted that although the Ashina Sword Saint is old, that does not mean he is weak.

Ashina Isshin praised him and put his sword back.

"Thanks……"

My arm has miraculously recovered. What happened in such a short time?

"Isn't that amazing?"

Meanwhile, Sekiro and Isshin Ashina sat in the attic and began a meeting.

Sekiro thanked Emma, ​​who sat silently behind Isshin Ashina, still harboring hostility towards him.

In addition, he was generous and never coveted gold or silver, and he would also pass on the martial arts skills he learned to others.

Thus, the Ashina clan was born.

Until one day, seeing the impoverished people, I finally couldn't hold back and took action... and so the war to seize the country began.

Choose

Then I established Ashina Country, and because of that, I had no children in my life.

Genichiro was adopted, as was Emma.

As for why I saved you, I don't want to let that person go astray. That sounds ridiculous, right?

But in reality, the Ashina in my heart is a barren yet happy hometown.

And not be controlled by that so-called power of transformation!

Sekiro was somewhat moved by what he heard; this king of Ashina truly possessed a unique charm.

Be able to take it on and put it down.

Loyal and devoted!

No wonder they were able to drive away outsiders and establish Ashina Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Sekiro began to recount his experiences, and when Isshin Ashina heard that the power he had gained could be given to others.

I couldn't help but be taken aback.

Emma pressed further, asking, "If I'm willing to pay the price, can I cure Isshin's illness?"

"Emma!"

"Please don't stop me. In my heart, you are my father..."

Faced with the unusually persistent Emma, ​​Isshin Ashina was both angry and moved.

He was just an old geezer; he's dead, so be it.

Why hurt others further?

To everyone's surprise, Sekiro laughed and said, "If you are willing to join the cult and believe in the gods, you will surely regain your health..."

I'm not trying to persuade you to join, but this is a very important thing for Ashina, or for the world.

"Think about it, if you were to die like this, what would the Ashina Parliament become?"

The old man remained silent.

Sekiro urged again, "Think about it. When I passed through the castle area earlier, I saw many wandering ninjas, as well as the Lone Shadows of the Interior Ministry..."

Reisha, where the sun sets in the west.

If a second sun cannot be found, it will turn into dust in history.

But Isshin Ashina wasn't sure how much of Sekiro's words were true or false.

Bold and unrestrained as they may be.

But he is very cautious in his actions!

"How about this..." Ashina Isshin considered for a moment and said to him:

"If you can get rid of those monks at Senpou Temple on Mount Kumgang, I'm willing to join the Cult of All Gods."

Don't underestimate the monks of Xianfeng Temple.

Those guys are ruthless and heartless!

The high-ranking monks inside possessed terrifying skills, no less than those of the sword saint he was, all in pursuit of immortality.

He was one of the first people to come into contact with the power of transformation.

It's practically immortal. If it can even destroy the lair of such a monster, then it naturally proves Sekiro's power.

Therefore, Isshin Ashina was testing his opponent.

I also want to see how powerful the cult is!

Upon hearing this, Sekiro nodded and said, "I will go up the mountain tomorrow to eliminate them, thus avoiding a bloody conflict. This is enough to show your compassion."

He then drank the remaining tea in his cup in one gulp.

Then he turned and leaped off the pavilion, disappearing into the night sky.

Emma looked at Isshin Ashina and frowned, saying, "Do you really believe in the power to alter Ashina's power?"

"At least he didn't lie to me. Although I'm old, I'm still quite good at judging people! Just you wait and see."

This guy might be the first step for Ashina to go global!

The regeneration of severed limbs can be explained if it is due to the power of transformation.

Or perhaps it's an Onmyoji who also possesses such magical abilities.

But the wolf hadn't revealed the slightest bit of its power, which was enough to make him take it seriously.

Moreover, there is another point.

The Mortal Blade is also located within Senpou Temple.

Even if the other party is not a messenger of God, if one gets hold of that knife, it can kill the immortal.

Sekiro doesn't understand what Senpou Temple is all about, but that doesn't mean he can't investigate.

Sasuke in the group directly packaged a collection of ninjutsu for him.

It contains all sorts of ninjutsu, totaling about seven hundred types.

Looking at the warm ninjutsu pack, Sekiro glanced at it, selected some ninjutsu from it, and began to practice.

One of the scouting spells was particularly suited to him.

He caught an eagle and connected with its vision using his mental power.

Accompanied by the howling mountain wind.

This is just an eagle spreading its wings and soaring towards Senpou Temple on Mount Kumgang.

under the moonlight.

The temple was quiet, with hardly any human activity in sight, especially in the outer part of the temple.

Only a few rooms had lights on.

Are there still people who study Buddhist scriptures?

Sekiro used his telescope to broaden his field of vision, only to witness a horrifying scene.

Inside the brightly lit room...

Four monks were lying on a human figure, doing something unknown.

But the figure was convulsing wildly, with blood spurting out from time to time.

The ground was covered in dark red bloodstains, accompanied by chattering sounds.

Sekiro then controlled the eagle to land on the tree trunk.

Close-up observation.

There were many jars placed outside the room, and something was wriggling inside them from time to time. Then, when the door to the room was opened...

Sekiro finally saw what had happened inside.

The figure was a thin, solitary figure whose internal organs had been removed and whose skin had been largely devoured.

And it's not for human consumption.

It was a bunch of centipedes!!!

As the monk turned around, a section of the centipede shrank back into his abdomen.

The monk straightened his robes and said in a sinister tone, "Throw him into the jar. Our divine insect lord still needs food."

"Hmm, this way we can live forever too..."

"Hehehe..."

The group laughed and joked.

Like pickling food, the man was chopped into several pieces and stuffed into a jar.

"That despicable guy!!! How could he be so utterly ruthless..."

Sekiro originally planned to kill again tomorrow, after all, it was worth paying a price for the sake of the cult.

Now we see such a cruel scene.

Even with his cold-blooded heart, he couldn't sit still any longer.

Sekiro immediately rode the wind towards Mt. Kongo, until he reached the summit, where his ears were filled with the sounds of countless insects.

"What depraved people you are! Beings like you are no longer human. Just die like this..."

Sekiro forms hand seals.

The divine power within his body rapidly condensed in the air, forming a black flame!

[Fire Escape·Amaterasu Burning Silence]

Enhanced Fire Release Technique!

Relying on Amaterasu's black flames, combined with Sasuke's modifications, and the enhancement of divine arts.

It fell directly towards the temple below.

boom.

In an instant, the main hall collapsed.

Countless insects squeaked and squeaked in the sea of ​​fire, writhing incessantly, yet utterly unable to stop their bodies from being destroyed.

Countless monks died as a result of this calamity.

……

This night was destined to be sleepless.

Within Ashina Castle, countless people awoke in terror!

Because in the darkness of night, the raging fire at Senpou Temple drew everyone's attention.

Genichiro Ashina was considering his next strategy when he was summoned to the attic by his subordinates, where he looked at the black flames amidst the red firelight.

A chill ran through him.

Who exactly is this?

They actually managed to destroy Senpou Temple!!!
