Chapter 530: 0531 Deep Accumulation (Third Update)

Japan, Jingguo Shrine!

Countless individuals who have made outstanding contributions to Japan are enshrined here. They are national heroes of Japan, and each of their names deserves the respect of the Japanese people.

This has never changed over the years.

After the Japanese royal family worshipped at the Jingguo Shrine, a new shift occurred within the martial arts community of the country.

Taniyama Shirou was confirmed dead, and his enterprises were taken over by the royal family.

The deaths of two significant figures of Japan in China were a humiliation for the Japanese royal family, an unprecedented event in their history.

The Aokuchi Group, one of the largest powers in the Japanese martial arts community, obeyed the royal family. Its development in Japan spanned over a hundred years, entrenched deeply within the country, with countless masters within its ranks.

A branch of the Aokuchi Group.

"Lord, the Divine Artifact must not fall into the hands of China, as it is a symbol of our Japan and an embodiment of the imperial family’s dignity. Now that it has appeared, we must retrieve it and present it to our glorious royal family," suggested Kawata, an adviser of the Aokuchi Group, to a middle-aged man.

"Is the report about the Kusanagi Sword appearing in China true?" asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was Sato Ejino, one of the three great Hall Masters of the Aokuchi Group, with powerful influence.

Bowing his body, Kawata replied, "If my lord doubts it, I can bring the informant to meet with you."

"Oh? Where is he?" scanned Sato Ejino with his gaze.

Soon, a young man appeared before Sato Ejino’s eyes, "I am Sato Otoko, formerly under the command of Lord Taniyama Shirou, thank you for granting me an audience today."

If Ye Qiu were here, he would certainly recognize this young man, Sato Otoko, who had displayed remarkable strength during the Ten Owls Challenge. Although he didn’t make it to the Ten Owls, he caused a headache to many, and the old lecher said that the Japanese man who wanted to blow up the top of Mount Hua was probably this Sato Otoko.

Unfortunately, after defusing the bombs, Sato Otoko disappeared and was never seen again.

"Why are you so certain that the Kusanagi Sword is in China?"

Sato Ejino had also heard of the news about the presence of the Kusanagi Sword but the information was inconclusive, leaving him skeptical.

"My lord, I was nearby observing the battle between Lord Taniyama and Ye Qiu with my own eyes, and I saw that he wielded our Japanese Divine Artifact, the Kusanagi Sword, which was also recognized by Lord Taniyama at that time," Sato Otoko said, kneeling and bowing his head.

"In fact, the reason Lord Taniyama went to China was not only to avenge his disciple Jiu Zang but also to avenge your son and eliminate that Ye Qiu," Sato Otoko’s eyes flickered.

"Are you speaking the truth?" Sato Ejino’s tone suddenly shifted as Sato Otoko brought up his son. Sato Tsuru’s paralysis was an issue that Sato Ejino still couldn’t resolve, and seeing his son in such a state caused him immense distress. He had long wanted to kill the culprit responsible.

"I dare not lie, my lord, or else I would deserve death. In truth, all of this started because of Ye Qiu. As long as he is eliminated, the Chinese martial arts community will eventually submit to our Japanese martial arts," Sato Otoko asserted confidently.

Sato Ejino pondered for a moment before saying calmly, "In order to compete for the position of Hall Master, I even put aside the vengeance for my son temporarily. Now that the position of Hall Master is beyond my reach, it’s time to take action and find the murderer who harmed my son and tear him to pieces."

"Lord, Ye Qiu is exceptionally skilled. Although his life and death are currently unknown, I am certain that he is not dead. If we capture his weakness, even if he is pretending to be dead, he will not be able to resist acting. By the time your enemy appears, the Kusanagi Sword will no longer be a secret. It will be like killing two birds with one stone!" Sato Otoko said.

"Oh? What weakness does Ye Qiu have?"

"My lord, Ye Qiu is quite the ladies’ man, ambiguously involved with several women. I believe that if we capture these women, just by spreading the word, he will surely show up," Sato Otoko suggested cunningly.

Sato Ejino nodded, "Your idea is good, and now that the issue of luring him out is resolved, what remains is to hire a master to kill him."

"Sir, for safety’s sake, I suggest you ask a supremely powerful individual to take action. We cannot afford any mishaps with the Kusanagi Sword!" Sato Tsuru said.

"A supremely powerful individual... I recall that Bai Yi of the Gu Valley made his breakthrough to the legendary realm thanks to a great deal with an old monk. Since that’s the case, it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try!"

...

Inside the room.

Ye Qiu’s form changed, displaying the phantom shadow of a flood dragon forming along his spine. With every punch Ye Qiu threw, the flood dragon seemed to swim out, unleashing astonishing power. It was fortunate that Ye Qiu was merely training and not using a trace of True Qi, otherwise, the very room he was in could easily be shattered by his punches.

The Flood Dragon Devil Fist.

This set of boxing techniques was overwhelmingly domineering and fierce. Even Ye Qiuxiu spent a full fifteen days to just touch the threshold of its entry level.

With each punch, the dragon’s roar resonated; the body followed the punch and the punch followed the body. A step and a follow, each punch perfectly placed.

Relying merely on the brute force of his body, each punch he executed felt as if it could penetrate steel and concrete. Such a divine fist deservedly could be called the Devil Fist.

Most importantly, up to now, he had only barely mastered the first punch, Flood Dragon Emerges from the Cave!

Only having reached the pinnacle of the late True Qi stage to master the first punch was a significant blow to Ye Qiu. Considering there were six more punches, each requiring a breakthrough to a new realm for cultivation, Ye Qiu couldn’t help but feel astounded at how terrifying the power of the final, seventh punch would be.

"This set of boxing techniques is like adding wings to a tiger for me, and I feel that by fully mastering it, it might even be possible to integrate it with my Eagle Snake Xuan Hand," Ye Qiu murmured to himself.

These days, whether it was drawing from the martial experience of Dugu Ming’s ancestor or cultivating his famed boxing techniques, it had all been a significant and profound accumulation for Ye Qiu.

Just think, he had only finished one book—should he go through all of the remaining twenty-some secret manuals, to what extent would he improve? This was something even Ye Qiu couldn’t imagine.

Having trained to this point, Ye Qiu understood that there was no need to hurry in breaking through to the legendary realm.

He had previously relied on the power of the remnants of a divine eye to contend against legendary realm fighters, but having learned the Flood Dragon Devil Fist, Ye Qiu felt that with this technique, he might be able to stand against legendary realm masters even just at the True Qi stage.

What did this indicate? That surmounting realms in combat was not impossible. Having witnessed this script from a powerful warrior, Ye Qiu understood that many geniuses in the world could achieve this, not just him.

What was compared at that time? It was the accumulation. The deeper the foundation, the thicker the accumulation, the stronger one would become.

The benefits brought about by profound and powerful foundational accumulation were immense. Some accumulated strength over three years for one breakthrough, while others might have successive breakthroughs within a year. Two might seem to break through to the same realm at the same time, but regarding actual strength, there would still be a gap, depending on who had built a deeper foundation. Naturally, the one with the shallower foundation would be no match for the other.

Having read a strong warrior’s martial script, Ye Qiu had already built a solid layer of foundation, a significant layer of depth.

But at that time, he chose not to seek a breakthrough to the legendary realm; instead, his gaze turned to the other secret manuals.

This wealth, he planned to continue to solidify and deepen, to squeeze his foundation until it was terrifyingly dense—a smooth breakthrough would then come naturally.

While Ye Qiu was thinking about accumulating more martial insights, a sense of unease flashed through his heart.

"Why do I feel like someone is out to get me? Or is it someone close to me?" Ye Qiu mumbled. This was a premonition. Although not precise, it couldn’t be ignored by Ye Qiu.

He always believed in the saying "fortune favors the alert."

With a thought, he pondered how to avert the yet to happen misfortune. The lingering premonition unsettled him, making it difficult to focus on his cultivation.
