Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

Chapter 2624 Internal Strife and the Seizure of the Kusanagi Sword
The mission is complete?! What happened?!

Upon hearing the system notification, Lin Mu's face showed a hint of surprise.

He clearly remembered the mission requirements: to seize the Yamata no Orochi, the guardian beast of the Eastern Kingdom's sacred path, and extract the blood crystal from its heart and the cursed divine crystal from its body.

It's understandable that the Cursed Divine Crystal has been obtained, but what about the Blood Crystal of the Heart, also known as the Primordial Azure Dragon Divine Crystal?

How come the task was completed so easily?

Moreover, isn't it necessary to consume the Cursed God Crystal and the Primordial Azure Dragon God Crystal, and then go through an earth-shattering and ghost-weeping battle with the power of the curse before successfully purifying the bloodline?
That's it?!
The system prompt gave him a very perfunctory feeling about this task.

"--Ding!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have completed the epic hidden quest [The Curse of the Divine Beast Yamata no Orochi], and have received the following rewards: All members of the Xu Clan will be loyal to you; [Part of the map of the Eastern Continent Secret Realm], part of the nautical chart of the Endless Sea, and the extraordinary book [Xu Fu's Travels]."

Although he was puzzled about the mission's process, he didn't mind receiving the rewards.

The next moment, three orbs of light appeared in front of him, and he immediately put them away.

"The secret realm of Dongyingzhou... Could it be that Mount Yingzhou is divided into east, west, south, and north?" Lin Mu wondered to himself.

He glanced quickly at the two pictures and found them quite strange. Hmm... there was nothing to see on them! Only a faint, hazy light lingered around them, making them look extraordinary.

Without delving into anything further, he carefully put away the two pictures and then examined the strange book, "Xu Fu's Travels".

After Xu Fu's experiences were written down, they became a remarkable book, which made many people in the Great Wilderness Territory extremely eager to read it.

However, to Lin Mu's dismay, when he opened the first page, he found that there was still nothing there.

A wordless book from heaven!!!
The book is made of unusual gold foil, with exquisite patterns engraved on the outside, and it is very light to hold.

"What's going on?" Lin Mu's face was full of doubt.

He also wanted to see if this strange book contained the art of establishing a nation, the strategy of governing a country, or the means to strengthen a nation... Who knew... it was a wordless book!
Lin Mu carefully examined the book, even trying to activate it using the Tai Long Freedom Technique, but found it impossible...

"It seems they are related to the ocean!" Lin Mu concluded after conducting some experiments.

His luck is not low, his position in the celestial realm is also emerging, and he has so much primordial dragon fortune, yet he can't even see a single word in a book. That must mean that the conditions for its manifestation are extremely demanding.

He didn't conduct any more experiments. He packed everything up, then looked up at the sky. The dark, gloomy clouds had dissipated.

The enormous, deformed body of the Yamata no Orochi has disappeared.

"The Eight-Headed Serpent has finally met its end," Lin Mu thought with a sigh.

There was no fight with anyone; they were simply tragically blasted apart by the karmic lightning of heaven and earth...

However, he always felt that the death of Yamata no Orochi was not so simple... Perhaps this feeling came from the Primordial Azure Dragon...

Now we just wait and see how it grows.

Lin Mu continued to observe the battlefield like a bystander. He could actually start a live stream, broadcasting the entire scene exclusively; it would definitely be popular.

As for revealing your hand, you can close it when you're ready to use it.

Just as Lin Mu was weighing the options in his mind, the appearance of a disheveled figure in the distance made him abandon his plan to start a live stream.

Lin Mu's figure flashed, and he quickly rushed towards that figure.

"Screech!!!" At that moment, a piercing collision sound rang out.

The figure was surrounded by a strange protective shield, and a terrifying power emanating from the surrounding area attacked the shield like sharp blades, causing it to tremble continuously.

"Why were you so determined to get in?" Lin Mu appeared beside him like a ghost, asking with a strange expression.

The next moment, with a thought, the Dragon Essence Heavenly Gang Power beside him surged out and enveloped him.

"Boss!!!! I've finally met you... This Heavenly Rank amulet is almost used up."

The visitor was none other than Ningxinhua!
"Aren't you..." Lin Mu was about to say something when Ning Xinhua interrupted him, "Boss, I'm live streaming right now!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu took back what he was about to say. Clearly, what he said afterward was a company secret.

“You can text me when you come over, and I’ll escort you,” Lin Mu said in a low voice.

"Boss, you're so busy with work, and you're even locked in a fierce battle with Orochi. How could we dare disturb you?" Ning Xinhua said solemnly.

“I just didn’t expect you to just stand by and watch the show…so relaxed…” Ning Xinhua said, pursing her lips.

"The Yamata no Orochi has been dealt with..." Lin Mu said, but his expression suddenly froze.

He suddenly remembered that since Xu Yuan had killed the Yamata no Orochi, and his identity was prefixed with the national guardian beast of Japan, why wasn't there a system announcement?!

He was so absorbed in those three gains that he hadn't thought of them for a moment.

"Done? Boss, you killed it?" Ning Xinhua's face showed no surprise, but rather a hint of disappointment. The reason? The live stream was ruined!

She paid a heavy price to get in this time; without an explosive scene, she might have suffered a huge loss...

"Wait a minute, you killed the Yamata no Orochi, the national guardian beast of Japan, so why wasn't there a system announcement?" Ning Xinhua immediately realized and asked. Clearly, she had immediately thought of the key point.

"Oh... I should say it wasn't me who killed him, it was a plot device by the system, he was struck by lightning." Lin Mu didn't explain much before the live stream.

"I see. Those thunderous sounds earlier were terrifying. Then the dark shadow that blotted out the sky suddenly disappeared, and the thunder stopped too," Ning Xinhua said with realization.

"Boss, this is an exclusive live stream, is there a bonus?" Ning Xinhua asked jokingly.

"Yes!" Lin Mu waved his hand, like a kind and generous capitalist.

"Hehe... Okay, I'll just livestream right next to you." Ning Xinhua's two large, bright eyes narrowed slightly as she said excitedly.

"I don't think you'll be staying here for very long..." Lin Mu glanced at the distant battlefield and said quietly.

"Boss, is it because of that battlefield over there? Who's fighting that dragon there?"

"Oda Nobunaga and Hattori Hanzo, and there's one more I probably don't know."

“However, I suspect it should be Susanoo,” Lin Mu said softly.

"So it's the legendary general from Xiao Rizi..." Ning Xinhua's slightly narrowed eyes flashed with a sharp light.

This guy was originally a radical youth.

“No wonder… Boss, can you kill Oda Nobunaga and Hattori Hanzo?” Ning Xinhua suddenly changed her tone and asked seriously.

"Probably not. As you know, the system does a very good job of protecting historical figures; they're not so easy to kill," Lin Mu said with utmost humility and composure.

Oda Nobunaga and Hattori Hanzo... he dared to kill and was capable of killing that dragon and that Susanoo!

“Hmph…” Ning Xinhua rolled her eyes at Lin Mu, her expression meaningful.

Afterwards, the two continued watching the show. To make the live stream more engaging, Lin Mu led Ning Xinhua closer to the battlefield.

Ning Xinhua started to get into work mode, interacting with fans in the live stream and occasionally inserting advertisements for Muhuang Group's acquisitions.

The battle lasted a long time... Night fell and then dawn broke again.

Besides Ning Xinhua, others also tried to enter the battlefield to broadcast live, hoping to gain some advantage. However, they mostly failed, and at most, they were blasted to death by the terrifying energy surrounding them after staying for a little longer.

"Boss, what's your strength now? A lot of people have come over and said that your defensive power has reached the god level. Many people using heaven-rank items can't withstand it for long, nor can they go deep into the area," Ning Xinhua asked with a teasing smile.

"I'm only a tiny bit stronger than a low-ranking general," Lin Mu said with a smile, shaking his head.

"Rumble!" Just then, the earth suddenly shook violently for some unknown reason.

Lin Mu stared intently at the battlefield, then said without turning his head, "You should go!"

"Ah...is the time up? But the battlefield still seems quite intense...many viewers are saying it could last for three days and three nights." Ning Xinhua was extremely puzzled.

“That’s true at this stage, but that dragon is about to undergo a transformation,” Lin Mu said meaningfully.

Upon hearing this, Ning Xinhua was quite puzzled, but she still followed Lin Mu's advice and began to evacuate. She wasn't going to risk dying for such a short amount of livestream time.

Lin Mu led Ning Xinhua away quickly, and when they reached the outer perimeter, he let her go on her own while he returned the way he came.

Along the way, the frequency of the earth's tremors became shorter and shorter.

When they returned to the battlefield, the battle was exactly the same as before.

However, as time went on and the earthquakes became more and more frequent, the three of them became less focused on fighting, because they sensed danger.

Since we can't do anything to them, we have no choice but to retreat again...

As if they had planned it in advance, the three launched an attack and then withdrew.

The Primordial Azure Dragon seemed to know that the other party would do this, and did not continue to entangle itself.

The three quickly retreated, reaching a distance of several hundred feet.

However, just as the three landed and paused, the mysterious figure suddenly sprang into action, attacking Oda Nobunaga directly!

Yes, they've had another internal conflict!

The mysterious figure brandished his longsword and slashed directly at Oda Nobunaga's right arm.

He didn't want Oda Nobunaga's life, but rather the sword in his hand!

The sacred weapon of Japan, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi!
