Chapter 356: Palace of Origin
The devil is actually me!
It turns out that the two little guys were not afraid of Yongzhen, but him...
Xia Yu tilted his head and glanced at the two little girls again. Under his gaze, the two white-haired little girls were almost about to cry.
Xia Yu: “…”
Bullying the little loli achievement, achieved!
“Why is there such an outrageous achievement?”
Xia Yu slapped his head and smashed the achievement entry that suddenly popped up. He didn't want this kind of achievement!
"Master Xia Yu, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want a full body check-up?"
Yongzhen looked at Xia Yu with a worried look on her face. She had wanted to ask before why Xia Yu would always suddenly become dazed and then smile foolishly at the air.
Before her medical knowledge reached the required level, she had some doubts but was not too worried because even though Xia Yu occasionally behaved like this, he usually behaved normally.
But since she started learning modern medical knowledge, she discovered that Xia Yu's condition was most likely a mental problem.
It’s just that Xia Yu didn’t usually do anything out of line, so it would be very inaccurate to judge him just because he was staring blankly and smiling foolishly.
Therefore, Yongzhen has been trying to find time to check on Xia Yu.
"A full body check?"
Regarding Yongzhen's worry, Xia Yu shook his head and said, "Next time, I have something to do with them this time, and I'm healthy, so I don't need a checkup."
"Is that so?" Yongzhen was a little discouraged, but the next second, she encouraged herself in her heart.
She is a doctor, she can't give up just like that. Even if Xia Yu said so, she can always find an opportunity.
Xia Yu was a little puzzled when he found that Yongzhen suddenly became motivated, but he didn't think too much about it.
"Okay, come here, both of you. You don't have to study anymore. I'll take you out to play." Facing the two shivering white-haired cats, Xia Yu waved at them.
The two little girls on the other side heard that Xia Yu was not here to check their learning results, so they secretly breathed a sigh of relief and trotted over.
In all their lives, this was the first time they knew that learning was such a painful thing, although this was also their first time learning.
When they were land gods, no one required them to learn anything.
Seeing the two little ones' eyes that seemed a little scared of him, Xia Yu snorted lightly, reached out and rubbed their heads hard, and only stopped when their white hair became as messy as a chicken coop.
He was the benefactor who taught them how to transform and also taught them modern knowledge, but now they are looking at him with fear in their eyes. It is really hurtful.
"Okay, I have something else to do so I'll leave first. You should also take some rest and make sure you combine work with rest."
After saying that, Xia Yu raised his hand and snapped his fingers. An illusory door suddenly opened out of thin air, and behind the door was a cliff with a waterfall.
Yong Zhen was no longer surprised by this scene. Xia Yu had never hidden anything from them anyway. His magic could not be explained in words.
But as long as Xia Yu is still the Xia Yu they know, that is enough.
As Xia Yu stepped into the door, the two little ones hurriedly followed him in. As long as it was not studying, they would do anything.
Behind the door is a palace on a cliff surrounded by beautiful mountains and clear waters, shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland, and the whole picture seems to be detached from the world.
At first glance, it looks a bit like the legendary paradise, but according to the setting, Origin Palace can indeed be said to be a paradise.
There are mythical beasts guarding the place (the Sakura Dragon), hermit monks (the Kirigakure nobleman), and playful warriors practicing their trade (the beautiful warrior Yuga).
Putting aside the facts, Genji Palace is indeed a secluded paradise.
"Tsk, such a good Palace of Origin has been turned into a mess by the Sakura Dragon taking root."
Xia Yu looked at the magnificent Palace of Origin and said softly, whether the Sakura Dragon did it intentionally or unintentionally, it was ultimately the mastermind behind all this.
So it’s better to kill the Sakura Dragon. I don’t know if it can be eaten. As long as its body is not made of wood, it can be eaten!
In the lightly moist air, Xia Yu and others appeared on the roof of the tallest building in Genshin Palace.
Because Xia Yu concealed the auras of the three of them, even though they were standing at the highest point carelessly, the beautiful women here did not notice the presence of intruders.
Of course, even if she was discovered, Uga Beauty probably wouldn't be able to do anything. Even a wolf could slaughter the entire Origin Palace by itself.
In the corridor of the Palace of Source, Kirigakure Nobuhito was playing his flute, using the sound of the flute as background music.
In the square of Genji Palace, the beautiful warriors are playing football, singing and dancing for fun.
Although the name of the tribe is Yujiamei, in reality the Yujiamei people have nothing to do with beauty.
The beautiful warrior Uga from Genshin Palace is all blue, has tentacles on her hands and feet, and a neck that doesn't look like a human's. In contrast, the noble Kirigakure doesn't even look like a human anymore, she's just a fish monster.
"Xiaobai, do you know the Yugami clan?" After watching for a while, Xia Yu lowered his head and asked the white snake.
Xiaobai, who had transformed from a white snake, lowered his head and thought for a moment before replying, "Before the dragon came and took root here, the Yujiamei people believed in us, the little gods of the mountains and fields, and we helped them to have a good harvest and good weather."
"But since the dragon came here and took root, some weak gods have disappeared, our power has gradually weakened, and the dragon has even spread its power into the water at the source."
"Because of the disappearance of the mountain god, the Ugami tribe converted to the dragon and were lured by the water from the source. After that, they became like this, but this also stopped them from aging and turned them into immortal beings."
"But this kind of immortality has requirements. It needs to absorb essence and use it to resist aging. There were many more people of the Yugami clan in the past than there are now."
After listening, Xia Yu nodded. These facts were similar to what he had guessed.
But Xiaobai doesn’t know more specific details. After all, they are not omniscient. They just live longer and know more.
After talking about the Ugami clan, Xia Yu looked around and found that the entire Origin Palace was not big, but it was not small either.
All the buildings of Genji Palace are built among the mountains, and all the houses are soaked in clear pool water. In some places, the pool water even overflows the houses, leaving only a little bit of the roof corners exposed.
Because of the pond water, the air here is also very humid. The buildings are covered with moss and are dotted with cherry trees.
After taking in the scenery, Xia Yu patted the two little ones on the head and said, "I'll give you a task. Set these half-human, half-ghost creatures free."
"Incomplete immortality can only bring filth. Rather than letting them continue to pollute this place, it is better to die early and be reborn soon. Oh, these things cannot be eaten, don't eat them by mistake."
I'm afraid even the model worker Fang Yuan would not accept this kind of incomplete immortality.
"We know."
The two little ones nodded and jumped directly from the roof. Then they transformed into their original forms in mid-air, and two large white-scaled snakes appeared instantly.
Given their body size, they only need to roll a few times so that no enemy can escape. There is no need to waste time and effort killing them one by one.
In an instant, all the creatures in the Source Palace noticed this side, and then yellow thunder fell from the sky, but the thunder hit the scales without leaving even a trace of burn marks.
The cleaning began, and the two white snakes began to roll around on the spot, crushing the building and the Ugami clan inside it into pieces.
Those beautiful Yuga warriors hit the white snake with the ball in fear, but the ball, which could break bones, couldn't even break its scales.
As the cleaning progressed, Xia Yu did not just sit there and watch, but turned to look at the stone steps on the cliff.
Charge up and jump!
With a bang, Xia Yu jumped up on the spot. The building under his feet turned into fragments under the impact, and his figure also disappeared here .
The stone steps of the Genshin Palace are connected by wooden torii gates and extend to the top of the cliff .
Continuous golden thunder fell from all around the stairs, but this golden thunder had no other power, it was simply the thunder of nature.
Therefore, Xia Yu did not think about mastering the Thunder of Ba. Whether it was the special attack thunder against ancient dragons in the Dark Soul world or the dragon thunder in the Ring of Magic world, they were all stronger than the natural thunder like the Thunder of Ba.
Boom boom boom!
With the sound of thunder in the background, Xia Yu reached the top of the stone stairs with a few leaps.
There is a cave at the top, with a huge stone being worshipped in the cave, and a girl lying in front of the stone.
The girl has lost her life, and her identity is not clearly stated in the game, except that she is referred to as the witch.
Xia Yu had some guesses about the girl's identity. She might be the beautiful Yujia who had not yet been contaminated by the source water.
She lived in the Palace of Origin as a priestess of the Sakura Dragon, but she resisted the temptation of the Water of Origin and therefore did not mutate.
But because she did not drink the water of origin, she did not have the power of immortality and eventually died here.
But what the truth is, that depends on one's own opinion.
After all, the truth has been buried with the death of the girl.
The moment he stepped into the cave, Xia Yu raised his eyebrows. He felt the power of the barrier here, a barrier that covered the inner world.
If the information is correct, the area inside the barrier is where the cherry dragon takes root, the fairyland.
In the game, you only need to worship and pray to go to the fairyland, but Xia Yu was too lazy to pray. He just tore open the barrier roughly and walked in.
As Xia Yu walked in, the surrounding scene began to change. Clouds emerged and the sky flashed with tiny golden electric lights.
There was nothing but empty clouds and mist all around, covering the place in a vast expanse of white.
If Xia Yu didn't know that he was still in the Sekiro world, he almost thought he had come to the scene of the boss battle with the nameless principal.
As the cherry blossom petals flutter in the wind, you can see a huge towering tree standing behind you beyond the clouds, and a sense of antiquity and agelessness comes over you.
Cherry blossom petals were floating above an ancient tree. It was a giant cherry tree.
Apart from the cherry trees, there is nothing else here. Clouds and mist spread all around, which is really similar to the legendary fairyland.
Xia Yu looked at this secret place called Fairyland and walked towards Sakura Dragon.
But before he could take a few steps, something strange happened. Dozens of monsters with human faces and dragon bodies, holding sacrificial iron rods, appeared around Xia Yu.
These monsters were dry and withered, like the dead branches of old trees, and their bodies were pale, looking extremely ominous.
The first moment these human-faced monsters appeared, they covered their mouths and began to cough dryly, and green poisonous mist instantly spread around.
The bleak green poisonous fog merged into the milky white fog, turning the surroundings into a poisonous swamp hell.
"Monster! I can tell at a glance that you are not human. Humph! How dare you show off your skills in front of an expert, the mighty Heavenly Dragon!"
Xia Yu leaped forward while shouting loudly, and dark red mist emerged from his body. Then, a huge, ferocious dragon head emerged from above his head.
The dragon head turned from a shadow into a real object in the blink of an eye, and with a hoarse dragon roar, dragon flames erupted instantly.
╰(＞□＜)╯Ahhh!!!
The flame of Yakir!
One of the Dragon Prayers in the Ring of Fame is a high-level prayer that can transform the body into a dragon and spit out fire from its mouth.
In an instant, the scorching dragon flames turned into a firestorm that swept across everything, burning the surrounding dead wood monsters to ashes, leaving only a little ashes.
The moment the dead tree monsters were completely destroyed, the wind began to blow.
Golden thunder descended from the sky, shining brightly in all directions, and dense electric wires gradually appeared in the air.
"Um?"
Xia Yu raised his eyebrows, raised his arm and took a closer look, and found that all the hairs on it stood up.
If you feel it more carefully, it seems that his hair is also standing up.
boom!!!
Suddenly, a huge thunder like a giant transforming struck down from the sky, golden lightning exploded, and the storm it stirred up blew away the clouds on all sides.
Xia Yu casually slashed out a wind blade, cutting through the storm clouds in front of him, allowing himself to see clearly what was happening behind him.
In the sight, the large cluster of cherry trees suddenly began to tremble under the stimulation of thunder.
Immediately afterwards, a huge monster poked its head out from it, and when it stretched out its body completely, a several hundred meters long oriental dragon slowly appeared.
This is the Sakura Dragon, the Sakura Dragon that is rooted in the source of Ashina.
The lower half of the Sakura Dragon was the cluster of cherry blossom trees, while its upper body was twisting in the air. There were supposed to be two claws on both sides, but there was only one claw, and the other claw had been broken off at the root.
The slender claw reached into the cherry tree and immediately pulled out a seven-branched blue sword that emitted a faint fluorescent light.
The seven-branched sword, also known as the six-pronged sword, has three branches on each side of the blade, for a total of seven branches, hence the name seven-branched sword.
The blade is long and uncut, and it looks more like a ritual vessel used for sacrifice than a weapon.
At this moment, Yinglong stretched out his body completely, holding seven swords and looking at the invaders from afar. Thunderclouds rolled behind him, and the sky full of thunder served as the background of his appearance.
I have to say that Sakura Dragon is indeed the most handsome boss in Sekiro, but its strength...it's better not to mention it.
But that was only for the sake of gameplay, so the Sakura Dragon was not designed to be too powerful. How could a real Sakura Dragon be knocked out by a few thunderbolts so easily?
Moreover, there were no lightning-struck trees around him, and he couldn't learn how to use a knife to attract lightning...
Wait, why does he have to learn to attract thunder from the wolf? He can set thunder himself.
Xia Yu's expression froze. He opened the chat group and sent a message quickly.
[Sekiro]: Live broadcast of dragon slaying, recreating the style of King Gwyn slaying the dragon, smashing the cherry dragon with thunder!
