Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 515: Frontier Expansion
The Ziyao Celestial Empire, the Huanchen Buwu Army, and the Japanese Vanguard Army, the three major forces that determine the situation in the world gathered at the Whirlpool Coast.

The three armies were facing each other, waiting for the monarch's order to start the most brutal killing.

"The truth spreads across the world, the dragon's heart penetrates the present and the past, the wonderful words create the world, and the Tao is planted in the land thousands of miles away."

"The ten lands of the universe, following the example of the nine heavens, only my imperial flag is under the command of all the people."

"At the age of seventy, I will be extremely powerful. Holding my precious sword, I will kill both Buddhas and demons. I will throw my white fox sword and swing it like a rainbow. This era was created by me!"

Liu Huo Cang Long, Zang Hun Huang, and Inu Wakamaru arrived. Three different thoughts spread in the minds of the three people.

"Liu Huo Canglong, now that you have arrived at the Whirlpool Coast, I believe you have already realized your mistake." Inuwakamaru looked at Liu Huo Canglong.

Liu Huo Cang Long admitted: "I came here for the future peace of the Central Plains."

"Inuwakamaru, this is your last chance. Leave the territory of our Shenzhou and you can save your life." The Soul Burial Emperor issued a final warning.

"Although we have suffered some setbacks in Japan, we have not suffered any serious damage. Soul Burial Emperor, you are too confident."

The Soul Burial Emperor was not afraid at all. "From what you said, you are going to continue to fight with me."

"The Japanese have not yet shown their strength, so how can they give up easily?" As he spoke, Inuwakamaru opened the golden fan in his hand. The golden fan emitted a dazzling light under the sunlight.

Ryusai Jusansuke, who led the Japanese vanguard army, received the signal and gave an order to lead the Japanese army to attack Huanchen Buwu's army.

Then, a white light flashed, and Inuwakamaru drew the two swords at his waist and attacked the Soul Burial Emperor.

"Rainbow Fox Fire"

With two swords approaching him, the Soul Burial Emperor used his palm skills to dissipate the energy of the swords and hold the two swords.

“It seems that I haven’t defeated you enough~” The Soul Burial Emperor circulated his internal energy, showing his overwhelming power.

The move he made was actually "The Art of Creation: Return to the Origin".

At this time, Liu Huo Cang Long, who had been silent, took action, "Creation Art: Ziwei Dongyao".

Inuwakamaru wanted to turn around to defend himself, but his two swords were locked. His hands could not move due to the suction.

Even the Yuan Gong, as soon as it was activated, was absorbed by the Soul Burial Emperor.

The powerful palm force hit Inuwakamaru's body heavily.

Inuwakamaru was seriously injured and flew away, and the two swords in his hands fell out of his hands and were obtained by the Soul Burial Emperor.

"You." The injured Inuwakamaru realized that he had fallen into a trap and stood up and was about to order a retreat.

There was a loud noise from the sea.
"Inuwakamaru, did you hear that? This is the sound of the Yingfan Royal Dragon Boat exploding. Do you have no way to retreat?" Just as the Soul Burial Emperor was speaking, a huge ship came quickly from the sea. It was the 'Mirage' that had appeared in the battle on the coast of the East China Sea.

The whirlpool reefs on the Whirlpool Coast were useless in front of this sea fortress and were scattered and shattered.

The mirage approached the shore, creating a huge impact force.

In an instant, the Japanese vanguard army and its rear troops suffered heavy casualties.

Afterwards, countless soldiers from Huanchen Buwu, led by Yanshuai, Yanhuang Shafeng, rushed out of the mirage.

The Ziyao Dynasty army, led by Sima Wuhui and others, began to attack the Japanese vanguard army.

"It turns out that you two have been secretly in cahoots for a long time."

"Inuwakamaru, your two straw papers really tell the world's major events. But unfortunately, the one thing you missed is that it was the two dragons from the beginning to the end, not the wolves and sheep." Liu Huo Cang Long pointed at the Soul Burial Emperor and used his inner strength to make his voice spread throughout the battlefield, "He is the prince of my Ziyao Tianchao." Inuwakamaru heard the truth and suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. The people of the world have been played around by you and your son. What a good strategy of 'catching a turtle in a jar', and I, Inuwakamaru, miscalculated."

The Soul Burial Emperor held up the two swords, one red and one white, that he had taken from Inuwakamaru and said, "Inuwakamaru, you have miscalculated more than just these."

As he spoke, he examined the two swords in his hands. "This 'White Fox Katana' is worthy of being the national treasure of your White Fox Country, and is in no way inferior to the divine weapons of our Central Plains. This 'Nine Fire Rainbow Sword' is one of the swords of Yagyu Kenkage, and is in no way inferior to the White Fox Katana. No wonder you asked Yagyu Kenkage for the sword and sword manual before going on the expedition."

"How do you know the origins of these two swords?" Upon hearing the words of the Soul Burial Emperor, Inuwakamaru suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave.

It's no wonder that he reacted like this, because the Soul Burial Emperor had never been to Japan, but he knew the origins of the 'White Fox Sword' and the 'Nine Fire Rainbow Sword' very clearly.

As smart as he is, he would know what the meaning behind this is, but he just doesn't want to believe it.

The Soul Burial Emperor said, "Do you understand? The day that idiot Yan Tang proposed the so-called expansion plan, the details of the plan appeared on my desk. The reason why I pretended not to know was to let you come to me."

Inuwakamaru asked, "Why?"

The Soul Burial Emperor revealed his long-buried grand plan, "Don't you understand? Your appearance has made the Middle Earth aware of the threat from Japan. The exposure of Yama City has made everyone aware of Japan's ambitions. And your presence here is the best excuse for this emperor to conquer Japan. The grand plan of expanding the border is not for you, Japan, but for my Shenzhou."

Inuwakamaru understood that the information about Japan might have been known to the Soul Burial Emperor. "So, you have been planning for a long time."

"The plot is nothing more than a precaution. From the blacklist to the nearest Yama City, Japan has been declaring its ambition towards China with its actions. Su Huanzhen and others have done nothing, but this emperor cannot sit idly by. From the moment you, Japan, decided to launch an invasion, the death knell of your destruction was sounded." After saying that, the Soul Burial Emperor plunged the two swords in his hands into the ground.

"Considering that you have been dealing with me for a long time, I will let you die knowingly. Show yourself now."

As soon as the Soul Burial Emperor finished speaking, a man dressed in Japanese clothes came to him with an extremely powerful aura, "Captain of the Death Gate, the leader of the Eight Gates of the Western Sword School, Yagyu Guiku, here comes!"

After seeing Yagyu Kiku, Inuwakamaru was extremely shocked, "Yagyu Kiku, one of the two legends of the Western Sword School! It turns out that the traitor to Japan is you!"

When the Western Sword School rose to prominence, it fought several major battles with the shogunate, winning every one of them.

In one of the battles, the leader of the Western Sword School, Flame Demon Genjuro, personally killed the most powerful of the three lieutenant generals of the Kamikaze Camp, the 'Eagle General'.

Finally, the invincible legend of Fuso, known as "One Rider to a Thousand", led the most elite Kamikaze Battalion in Japan. He was the key figure in annihilating the Onimusai army and the Kirigakure Castle, and the military god Minamoto Musashi, who killed 30,000 Onimusai troops by himself, led the Kamikaze Battalion to fight against the Western Sword School.

In that battle, the Kamikaze Camp and the Western Sword Clan fought fiercely, with blood flowing like a river.

Although Minamoto Musashi defeated the flame demon Genjuro, he was blocked by the support of Yagyu Kiku.

Yagyu Kiku is very powerful in himself, and he even showed his immortality in battle.

No matter how Minamoto Musashi attacked, he could not kill him. He was unable to expand his victory.

Let Xijianliu take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Kamikaze camp and burn all the food and grass.

Finally, with the food and grass burned, Minamoto no Musashi had no choice but to retreat.

This battle added two more people to the Japanese martial arts rankings, the 'Five Demons' Yanma Genjuro and the 'Six Ghosts' Yagyu Kiku.

The Saikenryu also demonstrated their strength in this battle and were recruited by the shogunate to take control of Kyushu.

(Kyushu is Japan's Kyushu Island, the third largest island in Japan, located at the southwestern tip of Japan, facing Honshu Island across the Kanmon Strait in the northeast, and facing Shikoku Island across the Hoyo Strait and Bungo Channel in the east. It belongs to the Saikaido in the ancient Japanese "Five Ki and Seven Routes", which coincides with the location of the Saikenryu.)
Afterwards, the Saikenryu joined forces with Shogun Iwado's shogunate, and the two worked together to suppress the power represented by Sanada Ryumasa.

While helping Iwado gain more political benefits, Xijianliu also expanded its influence to the four countries.

Thanks to Wu Mengsheng for the reward.

Thanks to Dutianshensha Zhoutianxingchen for the reward.
