So he asked his attendant, Ba, for help.

To sever the Dragon's Blood, Dragon Tears were needed, so Tomoe set off. She endured many hardships, created the Primal Fragrance, traveled to the Immortal Realm, and successfully obtained Dragon Tears using another Mortal Blade.

Zhang wanted Tomoe to act as his second to sever his immortality and allow Tomoe to live.

Tomoe wanted to sacrifice herself to restore Takeru to normalcy, exchanging her own death for Takeru's right to live a normal life as a human being.

Returning to normalcy requires not only Dragon Tears but also Cherry Blossom Branches. However, by the time she returned, the Cherry Blossom Branches planted behind Ashina Castle had already been stolen by Owl.

As a ninja, Owl hoped to make a name for himself through his immortality and naturally did not want to sever the dragon's blood, so he stole the Cherry Blossom Branch.

Zhang and Ba both died in the end, and the new generation of the Dragon Heir was Jiulang.

However, due to Lu Ye's arrival, Jiulang's contract partner changed.

Not only that, everything changed afterward.

He thwarted Owl's plans, saved Hirata, and later used the White Serpent and the Guardian Ape to defeat the Interior Ministry and avert Ashina's destruction.

His final stop in this world was the Immortal Realm.

To save the life of his beloved girl, he vanquished the Sakura Dragon.

—The source of this curse of immortality.

Even if the dragon's bloodline is severed, the next generation of dragon heirs will still be produced after the original owner's death. Therefore, the only way is to eliminate the root of the problem and destroy that vicious dragon.

Lu Ye followed the scarecrow's arm down to the ground of the Fountainhead Palace.

Today, the Fountainhead Palace will surely be awash in blood.

Chapter 152: Defeat the Corrupted Monk and Arrive at Fountainhead Palace

To access the interior of Fountainhead Palace, one must cross a vermilion bridge.

The Zhu Bridge is slightly arched, with bright red maple leaves falling on its surface. At the other end of the bridge, a monk dressed in purple robes and wearing a white cloth-covered prajna mask sits upright. A huge Buddhist rosary hangs from his left wrist, while he holds a large naginata in his right hand.

Previously, there were phantom monks guarding the stone cave where one could ride in a sedan chair.

If there is an illusion, then there must be a physical form.

In order to survive, I will do my best to protect the Fountainhead Palace.

This provides double protection.

To enter the Fountainhead Palace, you must cross the Vermilion Bridge and then enter the main gate ahead.

Although he longed to reach the divine realm where Sakura Dragon resided as soon as possible, the gatekeeper would certainly not let Lu Ye pass through easily.

There are five precepts in Buddhism.

One should not kill.

Second, do not steal.

The three prohibitions against sexual misconduct.

The four prohibitions against lying.

Five things you should not drink alcohol for.

A monk who has broken precepts is called a monk who has broken precepts because she broke two of them.

In his pursuit of immortality, he ate the flesh of the king fish in the palace, and was possessed by an insect, thus breaking the precept against killing.

Bringing the matter of parasites to Senpou Temple caused the monks to betray Buddhism and pursue immortality, thus breaking the precept against false speech.

She brought the parasites into the temple in the hope that the monks' research would lead her to eternity.

In fact, she was the one who first proposed and put into practice the idea of ​​using children to create "Transformed Children." She traveled throughout Ashina, capturing and stealing young children for experiments, watching them die in agony, and making notes in books…

However, the monks of Senpou Temple made very slow progress in their research on immortality, and she herself knew that although the parasites were immortal for a long time, they were not eternal. Therefore, in order to further obtain immortality, she went to Fountainhead Palace and became its gatekeeper.

No one who is not from the land of immortals may enter.

Anyone who violates this rule will be executed here.

Having long since broken the vow against killing, she didn't mind killing anyone, and she didn't mind killing one more person.

Lu Ye bit the wedge ball in his mouth, picked up the Gatling gun, and began to pre-rotate the barrel.

“Amitabha…you are not a noble person in the palace.”

The broken monk spoke in a woman's voice, but the tone was as shrill as an old woman in a market.

"The last person to return was the beautiful female warrior, Yujia Ba. No one who is not from the immortal realm is allowed to enter."

Lu Ye didn't want to waste words with this guy, so he pulled the trigger directly.

Whether you get in or not isn't up to you.

The gun barrel spun at high speed, and the bullet flew out.

From Senpou Temple to Fountainhead Palace, there were still about half of the bullets left inside.

Faced with the rapid, dense barrage of bullets, the Corrupted Monk began spinning her naginata, the crisp clanging sounds echoing as she deflected all the projectiles. Since the opponent had launched the first attack, there was no need for further conversation; she would simply deal with them directly.

"Amitabha……"

She leaped up and immediately slashed down at Lu Ye.

Its massive body, nearly three meters tall, moved with incredible agility, as if floating on clouds.

Without hesitation, Lu Ye immediately threw the machine gun aside, released his teeth, and let the wedge-shaped weapon fall into his left hand. Using the flying boat technique from the Ba Liu, he flashed to the side of the Corrupted Monk, and then drew the Mortal Blade from behind him with his right hand.

Red miasma flowed from the scabbard and slashed behind him.

The broken monk was horrified when a deep gash was slashed across her side, as the wound did not heal immediately, rendering her immortality power completely ineffective against the Mortal Blade.

"Drink it!!"

But the monk who had broken his vows did not choose to back down. Instead, he charged forward, brandishing his naginata with overwhelming force.

The one who wields the Mortal Blade comes to the Immortal Realm, surely to seek the Dragon's Tear.

For the sake of eternity, she would never let Lu Ye pass through here.

She swung her naginata, her massive body spinning, the blade tearing through the air with a mournful wail; even from several meters away, Lu Ye could feel the immense power emanating from it.

If hit, the body would probably be severed.

Spin, leap, swing the sword, lightly touch the ground with your toes...

Breaking the monk's combo attacks was like a dance.

Lu Ye quickly recognized that this was a technique from the Ba Liu style.

Having guarded the gates of Fountainhead Palace for a long time, the Corrupted Monk also learned some of the techniques of the beautiful female samurai of Oka and incorporated them into his own swordsmanship.

When the broken monk charged at him, Lu Ye abandoned the Gatling gun without hesitation and instead used his two knives.

Left hand: Kusabimaru; Right hand: Mortal Blade: Tear.

He seized the opportunity, using minimal effort and the best angle to block the fierce series of slashes, while simultaneously using the gap in the broken monk's attack to slash at the broken monk's right hand with a wedge-shaped ball.

But the monk who had broken the precepts immediately saw through Lu Ye's intentions.

The blade left deep grooves on the bridge surface as if sweeping across the ground. She suddenly leaped backward, using the bottom of the hilt of the knife to brace herself against the bridge surface and stop.

However, the moment the naginata froze, Lu Ye's eyes immediately caught the opportunity.

There's a flaw!

Almost the instant the thought of attack arose, the body moved.

He bent over and bent his knees, exerted force, and the wedge-shaped sword in his hand seemed to propel his body forward, the tip of the sword pointing directly at the head of the depraved monk.

This is the Giant Ninja Thrust, the first sword technique Lu Ye learned, perfect for quickly closing the distance to an opponent with a weakness.

But just as Lu Ye was giving chase, he heard a mocking laugh coming from beneath the mask of the broken monk.

—Danger!

A second after Lu Ye lunged forward, the Corrupted Monk's blade followed suit.

It wasn't a straight attack, but a violent upward slash.

This is one of the most lethal moves of the Broken Monk. The thrusting strike, executed after accurately judging the distance between the two parties, can neutralize the opponent's attack and simultaneously cleave the opponent in two from bottom to top, with blood and internal organs flying out in the air.

"Aaaaah, die!!" the monk roared.

In her mind, the person wielding the Mortal Blade in front of her would not be able to overcome inertia and stop. Two seconds later, he would become a victim of her blade, and the Mortal Blade would fall into her hands, thus eliminating any further threat.

But a prediction is ultimately just a prediction.

The massive blade of the naginata sliced ​​through the bridge, but failed to slash upwards.

Because at that instant, Lu Ye, who had already reached this position, suddenly raised his foot and stomped down!

--see through!

"What!?" The monk who had broken his vows was stunned.

She was confident that her sword strikes were incredibly fast, and Lu Ye, who was thrusting at high speed, had no time to stop and was destined to be cut down!

If even this is stopped... then there's only one possibility.

That means Lu Ye's move just now wasn't an attack, but a lure!

The monk who had broken his vows looked down at Lu Ye's body, and cold sweat trickled down his face beneath his mask.

A wedge was clearly stuck in the bridge surface.

He was indeed prepared!

"Why don't you draw your sword?"

Lu Ye raised the tear in his hand.

The red katana exudes a miasma...

The monk who had broken his vows tried to loosen his grip on the hilt of his sword and back away, but it was too late.

——Wei Mingli·Yiwen.

The blade, emerging from the miasma, slashed straight down, but only severed her neck, for at that crucial moment the disobedient monk turned her head to avoid the tragic fate of being cut in two.
