Creed of the heavens

"Son, live well."

After saying this, Shui Shengzhi's spirit body disappeared completely, leaving only the purple-clothed warrior and Lu Xiao who still didn't know the whole story looking at each other.

The samurai in purple stood up barely holding the wound on his waist, and asked Lu Xiao with a puzzled look on his face, "Your Excellency, I am the samurai Kumano Jinzaemon of Ashina, what is this?"

Lu Xiao scratched her head, and said with some embarrassment: "It will take more time to explain."

"Your Excellency Kumano, is your father called Zuo? Did he warn you not to go to Suisheng Village? Did he say that your mother died long ago?"

Kumano Jinzaemon nodded confusedly: "That's right, my father said that my mother died of dystocia when I was born, isn't that true?"

Lu Xiao smiled meaningfully: "You already have the answer in your heart, but you just don't want to believe it is the truth."

"This"

Kumano Jinzaemon put his hand on his forehead in a daze: "My father is actually a person who started in chaos and ended up abandoning him?"

Lu Xiao kindly reminded: "Your Majesty Kumano, the villagers in Shuisheng Village have lost their minds. You wait for me in this square for a while. After completing the task, I still need you to take me to take a shortcut and leave."

With his ass, everyone knows that it is impossible for Kumano Jinzaemon, who is wearing a heavy accountant, to use the same method as Lu Xiao to enter the bottom of Ashina. He must have recalled a road between Ashina Castle and Shuisheng Village with his childhood memories. shortcut.

Kumano Jinzaemon was in a trance, but he still agreed to Lu Xiao's request, and sat blankly on the boulder in the corner of the square, muttering something in his mouth.

Unexpectedly, the worries of Shuisheng Lin were relieved, and Lu Xiao turned his attention to the path leading to the deepest part of Shuisheng Village.

Chapter 164 Eight Hundred Bhikkhuni

The broken precepts guarding the Chengjia Cave was originally named Eight Hundred Bikuni, and she should have been a figure in Japanese myths and legends.

It is said that this woman, whose surname was Takahashi, accidentally ate the mermaid flesh caught by her father, thus gaining a long life span of thousands of years.

It is said that she once used senjutsu to transfer 200 years of her life to the emperor. In her later years, she returned to her hometown of Wakasa and died of a hunger strike next to a mountain spring. She died at the age of 800.

Lu Xiao didn't have a deep understanding of Japanese mythology, so she didn't know how much of this legend was fabricated by the emperors of the past generations to boost their own status.

The Emperor's Manifesto warns.

The experience of Yabaichuni in Sekiro World is different from myths and legends. She lived for a long time as an insect possessor and existed as the gatekeeper of the Palace of Origin.

Coming to the deepest part of Shuisheng Village, Lu Xiao could see a closed stone gate from a distance. Before the stone gate was an open square.

Just from the topography of the square here, one can guess that there will be a battle. When Lu Xiao entered the square, he took off the Immortal Slash on his back and put it in his waist, and moved forward cautiously in the posture of Iai Slash.

When approaching the center of the square, a translucent phantom dressed as a nun suddenly appeared, holding a long naginata in her hand.

"a ha ha ha"

A strange laugh came from her mouth, and the phantom nun wearing a smiling mask swung a naginata to attack Lu Xiao.

"boom!"

The powerful naginata slammed at Lu Xiao head-on. This kind of long weapon commonly used by samurai women was as light as light in the hands of the Phantom Breaker Monk, and the number of sword techniques was extremely flexible.

Lu Xiao stepped back to the right to avoid the straight slash of the naginata, and when he was about to swing the cross, the sixth sense suddenly gave him a warning.

"Hahahahaha!"

The monk who welcomed the broken monk with a strange smile suddenly spun his huge body and rushed towards Lu Xiao, and the naginata that fell to the ground also spun along with her movements.

"clang!"

Using the scabbard to block the large-scale rotary knife attack of the Phantom Broken Monk, before Lu Xiao could make a counterattack, the enemy suddenly jumped out lightly, widening the distance between him and Lu Xiao again.

This nimble movement and extremely proficient naginata swordsmanship may be very passive in response to Iai Slash.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiao pulled out Immortal Slash from the scabbard with a "clang", and assumed an active attacking posture.

Most of Wei Mingliu's moves are simple and unpretentious, and they can often exert great power in close combat. With powerful attacks, they can suppress the enemy and defeat the opponent's defense.

But in the face of such a nimble opponent, it would be inappropriate to use Wei Mingliu's basic moves.

"Breathe"

Taking a deep breath, Lu Xiao changed his attacking routine and used a rather fancy combo move instead.

"Fly across the floating boat!"

With the fast-playing moves, the Phantom Broken Monk spends most of his energy on blocking, and he can no longer be as ethereal as before.

"Giant ninja stab!"

After running out of a set of moves, Lu Xiao immediately changed his moves, and thrust his feet explosively at the Phantom Breaker Monk.

After all, Lu Xiao is not a huge owl with amazing body mass.

When he uses the giant ninja thrust, he spins in mid-air to enhance the lethality of the breakthrough.

Although the Phantom Breaker Monk, who was too weak to catch him, escaped Lu Xiao's frontal stab, the purpose of this move was not just to attack.

Lu Xiao, who had completed the rapid displacement, appeared behind the Phantom Broken Monk, and a surge of sword energy was generated by the combination of profound meanings.

"Fly across the whirlpool cloud!"

Sekiro World's most gorgeous and fancy sword technique was launched, and the ultra-high-speed combo of scarlet sword energy completely suppressed the Phantom Broken Monk who was too late to turn around, and a complete set of sword techniques chopped on her back completely.

"Ahahahaha"

The Phantom Broken Monk who was recruited was still laughing strangely, her phantom body gradually dissipated under the excessive blows, and the stone door leading to the Chengjia Cave was also opened.

What was defeated here was only a phantom from the real identity of Eight Hundred Bhikuni. Compared with her real body, there must be a certain gap in strength.

Even so, Lu Xiao can roughly infer the attack routine of the eight hundred bhikkhuni through the actions of the Phantom Broken Monk, which will be of great help when facing her in the Palace of Origin in the future.

Passing through the stone gate and entering the cave, the first thing that caught Lu Xiao's eyes was a knot hanging from the ceiling of the cave, and there were several small waterfalls around the knot.

Under the knot lay a seemingly ornate but rather old and dilapidated sedan chair. In front of the sedan chair was an altar. A large number of stones of unknown origin were piled up on the altar, and one of the shimmering sea urchin-shaped stones was particularly conspicuous.

"This is the stone of knot."

When Lu Xiao picked up the Stone of Formation, she found several rows of small characters on the wooden table of the altar.

"It's a good omen to get married."

"The fragrance is overflowing, and I respectfully offer it to the sedan chair."

"Put it in the mikoshi, and they will come to greet you."

"Is the fragrance overflowing?" Lu Xiao tossed the Stone of Endurance up and down: "The last material is also in hand, let's go back and refine the fragrance of the source."
