Chapter 595: 0596 Seven Samurai (Fifth Update)

The old monk met his end!

Ye Qiu gently relaxed his fist, as the dark flames gradually disappeared.

This old monk indeed was fierce, daring to exchange his life for an injury in his dying moments. Ye Qiu touched his chest, still feeling some pain.

The blood force vibrated intensely; the old monk had concentrated all his strength, nearly piercing through Ye Qiu’s chest. Fortunately, he had defended in time, thus only sustaining a minor injury.

"Indeed, one must not underestimate any legendary Martial Artists. Those who’ve reached this stage, each one of them is resolute," Ye Qiu uttered with emotion, leaving behind the old monk’s corpse as he slowly walked away.

The fallen monk had a hole pierced through his brow by Ye Qiu’s finger, blood gushing out relentlessly.

His eyes wide open, he had not closed them even in death.

...

He was getting closer and closer to the base of Mount Fuji.

Ye Qiu’s killing of the old monk made Sato Eno’s expression turn uglier by the minute. Just moments before, he was confidently proclaiming that Ye Qiu would be surely killed; instead, Ye Qiu had fiercely slapped back, killing the old monk and putting Sato Eno in an extremely awkward position, with no face to show.

"He couldn’t even kill him, could he truly be invincible?" Sato Eno was extremely anxious inside, fearing that Ye Qiu might really come killing his way down. Then, who could stop him from targeting himself?

"My lord, I wonder about the capabilities of the seven Samurai on this ninth defense line?" Sato Eno couldn’t help asking, genuinely worried that the ninth line of defense would also be breached by Ye Qiu.

"Coming from the oldest Samurai families, do you think Ye Qiu would be their match?" the royal man replied indifferently. His composure stemmed from knowing the strength of his men well. If it weren’t for his royal status, these seven Samurai wouldn’t obey his commands.

Seven Samurai?

Most of those within the Japanese martial arts community hadn’t heard this term. Could there be legendary masters in Japan?

Currently, no one below the realm of legend could stop Ye Qiu, only those of the legendary realm or higher could potentially halt him. As for anything above the legendary realm, that was mythical in the Japanese martial world, unseen for a hundred years.

The mention of the term seven Samurai sparked many questions all of a sudden.

An old man of advanced age explained, "During the origin period of Japanese martial arts, this family existed, known as the Seven Samurai family. They were a martial arts clan that protected the royal family during its establishment. After all these years, it’s surprising that the family still exists."

"The Seven Samurai are not a single person but a title passed down within this family. Each time they appear, it’s always seven extraordinarily capable Samurai."

"Each and every one of them is a Samurai, all possessing remarkable strength."

This explanation made many nod in understanding, finally getting to know about the existence of the Seven Samurai.

"I recall a legend that says during past disasters, the Seven Samurai had appeared and fought, but in the end, they were overpowered, with six dead and one injured, and then there was no news of them. If it hadn’t been for that person wielding the Kusanagi Sword who quelled the disaster, perhaps Japan as we know it wouldn’t exist today," a young Samurai said astonishingly.

The Seven Samurai could be traced back to very ancient times, no wonder the royal man spoke of them without any worry.

"I really hope to see the Seven Samurai’s strength. Such an ancient family carrying its legacy until now must be terrifyingly powerful."

"With the Seven Samurai stepping in, this Chinese Martial Artist is likely to be defeated."

Hearing the background of the Seven Samurai, everyone was filled with anticipation, as a young Chinese Martial Artist had repeatedly shown dominance, bringing shame to their martial arts community.

Just as everyone at the base of the mountain was full of confidence in the Seven Samurai, Ye Qiu saw the seven black-clothed Samurai before him.

All carrying a curved sword, they stood there quietly, meditating with their eyes closed, until Ye Qiu appeared, when they simultaneously opened their eyes.

Ye Qiu assessed the seven, sensing an odd aura about them; it was neither like True Qi nor like legend, giving off an ethereal feel.

Oh?

No, Ye Qiu’s eyes suddenly tightened, he sensed that the aura of the seven people was exactly the same, whether it was breathing, heartbeat, or momentum, all as if from a single person.

How is that possible?

Ye Qiu was shocked in his heart, there was something indescribably strange about these seven people, as if they were one person.

Oddity hinted at something extraordinary; Ye Qiu did not take it lightly, even though he was a legendary Martial Artist now, he still needed to be cautious as the closer he got to the foot of Mount Fuji, the stronger the people who obstructed him became.

The seven people, upon seeing Ye Qiu not speaking, simultaneously made their moves in perfect sync.

The momentum of one person might not be strong, but when Ye Qiu saw the momentum of these seven people merging together, he was shocked to find that it was not weaker than his own, perhaps even stronger.

The bizarre seven made Ye Qiu feel a sense of novelty; it turned out there were people who could go this far, even Ye Qiu couldn’t help but be impressed.

However, surprised as he was, now that the seven people were silently advancing to kill, Ye Qiu suddenly drew the Kusanagi Sword.

"One...slash...flow!"

Following their simultaneous proclamation, they maneuvered the curved blades in their hands, and the attacks of the seven instantly merged into one.

An astonishing blade broke through the sky, soaring up a hundred meters, nearly splitting Mount Fuji in half.

Ye Qiu’s heart skipped a beat, sensing danger, amazed at the combine strength of the seven to achieve such power.

Ye Qiu did not confront their blades directly, he quickly dodged, avoiding the blade.

Shua!

Ye Qiu suddenly felt a chill on his back, he sharply turned his head, and saw a surprising scene, that sky-breaking blade had not struck the ground but had turned around and was slashing towards him again.

How is that possible?

Even a missed strike being controlled for a second attack was beyond Ye Qiu’s expectations.

Even Valley Mountain Bai Yi, Qian Zang, and Yagyū Sōjū, whom Ye Qiu had fought before, did not possess this technique.

This was not the moment to ponder how the opponent did it, Ye Qiu didn’t dare to stop, and dodged again, yet that astonishing blade followed relentlessly, difficult to shake off.

This method wouldn’t do, must he really resist it head on?

Ye Qiu did not want to waste too much energy, but it seemed like unless he broke through this blade, he would be forever chased.

Now having become a legendary Martial Artist, he was reluctant to flee in disgrace.

"Since I can’t dodge it, I’ll break through!" The power of the Black Flame instantly poured into the Kusanagi Sword, and Ye Qiu immediately made a slash.

A hundred-meter-long Sword Qi was no less powerful than the monster’s attack, the two attacks crossed paths, severing each other, then dissipated into nothingness, vanishing into the air.

Ye Qiu slightly raised his head, but in the next moment, he saw the seven bizarre people drawing another blade.

"Two...slash...flow!"

Again in unison, the seven moved smoothly and identically, as if they were one person, each arms circling, slashing out a blade from the curved blades in their hands.

Shua shua!

Fourteen blades, merging in midair, at that moment, the unified force of the blades made Ye Qiu’s hairs stand on end.

"Here they come again!" Ye Qiu was immediately alarmed!
