Chapter 1153: Chapter 1153: Prosperous Dao

Kyoto, after bathing and changing clothes upon returning to the Imperial Pavilion, Oda Kurayama came to the quiet courtyard.

Just before Kurayama arrived at the courtyard, the gate had already been opened, and it was then that he slowly walked in.

After pausing in front of the inner court’s gate, the highest leader of Dongying bowed to the gate before speaking.

"Teacher, why didn’t you kill that Long Xuan?"

"He can’t be killed."

Faced with the White Fox’s response, Kurayama was momentarily stunned on the spot.

"What? Do you doubt my words?"

"Disciple wouldn’t dare, it’s just that..."

"He has great fortune upon him and several King-grade Divine Artifacts bestowed by Mount Longhu. To kill him, even the prohibitions on Mount Fuji wouldn’t hold. When that happens, the one from Yaochi will surely take the opportunity to escape from Mount Fuji."

Kurayama was still somewhat shocked by this revelation: "Is that Long Xuan truly a genius to such an extent?"

"Indeed, among all the people I have seen, he is truly unique. No one in the younger generation has the capability to stand shoulder to shoulder with him now."

The White Fox inside the room, recalling the battle of the day, also had a serious expression on her face.

Before she went to see Long Xuan, she had made certain psychological preparations, but indeed, she hadn’t anticipated Long Xuan’s strength to be terrifying to such an extent.

Having not reached the status of an Earth Immortal, Long Xuan’s soul and body naturally couldn’t compete with a Land Immortal. However, his offensive capabilities had already reached the level of an Earth Immortal.

This was why the White Fox believed that if the two of them were to truly go all out, the prohibitions on Mount Fuji would be directly destroyed.

And those prohibitions were all too important to Dongying.

To risk so much for a Long Xuan was clearly not worth it.

Kurayama hesitated and bit his lip, unsure whether to voice his thoughts.

"Kurayama, though you are my disciple, you are after all the Emperor of Dongying. If you waver and hesitate over everything, always looking ahead and watching your back, you will never catch up to Zhao Xuanzhen of Xia Country in this lifetime."

Kurayama clenched his fist and took a deep breath upon hearing this: "Teacher, if Shinazugawa’s plan goes smoothly and the Dragon Cave opens, that opportunity for ascension..."

"Opportunity is just that, an opportunity. Even if you can see it, it doesn’t necessarily mean you can grasp it. But to tell you the truth, I don’t think that guy from Shinazugawa has the potential to become an Earth Immortal."

Kurayama hesitated for a moment before saying, "Does Teacher still believe that none of the three cultivation methods of Dongying can reach the Realm of Immortality?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I have made you choose between being a cultivator and a martial artist? Martial Arts Communication God, cultivators ascend to immortality. For the Human Clan, only these two tried and true great paths walked by our predecessors are the only way to break through the shackles of heaven and earth. To open up a new path, neither you nor they are capable."

"But Teacher..."

"Who said to you that I have opened up a new path?"

The White Fox’s words made Kurayama shut his mouth. To continue would involve the White Fox’s greatest secret—how he became an Earth Immortal.

"So, Teacher, what should I do now?"

There was a long silence in the room, before a voice finally said, "There are actually many methods, and haven’t I already told you one of them?"

Kurayama stood still for a moment, then quickly caught on.

Martial Arts Communication God.

He took a deep breath, "I understand, disciple. I will send the Clear Stream Sword Saint and the two Sword Saints of the Shinto stream to go together."

"Alright, go now. You are the Emperor of Dongying. If you consult me about everything, you will never grow."

"Yes."

Oda Kurayama spoke in a low voice before he finally left the courtyard and returned to his own study.

After a brief pondering, Oda Kurayama suddenly crushed a jade pendant, and soon accompanied by a surge of demon qi, a black shadow appeared within the study.

"What does His Majesty summon us for?"

Oda Kurayama’s face was cold, without any of the caution he had shown in the courtyard, "Go kill a few Xia citizens."

"Oh? Which one does His Majesty wish to kill? Ye Qingci or Long Xuan? Or is it Su Chengyu, who despite having obtained the map of the Dragon Cave, has not yet contacted the Koka Clan?"

"All of them."

Oda Kurayama spoke with an indifferent expression, a gleam of killing intent flashing across his eyes.

He believed in the White Fox’s judgment--the chance for ascension, that intangible thing, even if left on purpose by someone, could not be obtained just because one wished for it.

And the simplest and most direct way to prevent this opportunity from falling into the hands of the Xia citizens was to completely exterminate all the Xia citizens!

The chance for ascension, even if it could not fall into the hands of Dongying, he would not allow Xia Country to give birth to another Earth Immortal!

"Isn’t this move by His Majesty a bit too extreme?"

Oda Kurayama looked coldly at the shadow, "The Demon Slayer Department dares to send someone to Dongying to claim a Demon Monarch today, tomorrow they might dare to let an Earth Immortal come to Dongying to slay a Demon God! I know you do not wish to submit to me, but you should understand that Dongying and your Demon Clan have always been in an interdependent relationship since ancient times! Furthermore, aren’t you worried that Long Xuan might really become the second Su Linyuan?!"

Xia Country and Dongying have struggled against the Demon Clan for a long time, but very few have truly achieved the feat of slaying a Demon God.

And in the past hundred years, the only one to slay more than one Demon God is none other than Su Linyuan!

"I understand. I will discuss this matter personally with Orochi."

After saying this, the shadow disappeared from the study, and Oda Kurayama finally let out a sigh of relief and settled back into his seat.

Dongying might not produce an Earth Immortal, but Xia Country absolutely must not have a second Su Linyuan.

Within Mount Fuji, under the cover of a perfect night, three black-clad figures had already penetrated deep into Mount Fuji under the concealment of moonlight.

Perhaps due to the daytime battle between Long Xuan and the White Fox, the native demons of Mount Fuji had all hidden within their caves, and the infiltration by Su Chengyu and the others met with no obstacles.

Under Su Chengyu’s guidance, the three of them arrived at a small prohibition halfway up the mountain. Instead of immediately asking Yu Yanshu, Su Chengyu looked towards the Koka Jiugui.

"Can you break this prohibition?"

After observing for a while, Koka Jiugui began forming hand seals. Soon, several talismanic flames ignited in his hands and struck the prohibition, quickly tearing an opening in front of it.

Although it seemed quite different, the essence of the technique he used to open the prohibition at the True Dragon Shrine was fundamentally the same as Shinazugawa Sanemi’s—evidently, they shared the same origin.

"The opening won’t hold for long, hurry up."

Koka Jiugui spoke then entered first, while Su Chengyu followed with Yu Yanshu into the interior of Mount Fuji.

Once inside and feeling the demon qi which was much denser inside than outside, Su Chengyu turned his head and looked towards Koka Jiugui first, "It seems like you already knew there was a space inside Mount Fuji, didn’t you?"

Koka Jiugui didn’t attempt to conceal it and calmly said, "This is not really a secret, but this place is Demon Clan territory, and we normally wouldn’t risk coming here. But are you sure that the Dragon Cave is in this location?"

"Is there a problem?" Su Chengyu took the initiative to ask.

Koka Jiugui shook his head and said nothing. He was somewhat puzzled; if the Dragon Cave truly existed here, how could the demons have not noticed anything unusual for a hundred years?

To this, Koka Jiugui felt something was not quite right.

And to this question, Su Chengyu already had the answer.
