Kenya had a dream, which was different from the feeling of seeing flowers in the fog in the past, and this dream ...... It seems too real.

Ever since he came to Gensokyo, Kenya has had many different dreams.

The first time he dreamed, he dreamed of sword light, and then he learned sword light.

The second time he dreamed, he dreamed of a green shirt, and then he put on a green shirt.

So I dreamed for the third time, and that is, this time. He dreamed of the mountain clearly, and then ...... There was a mountain that really appeared in front of him.

It's just that this time the dream is not as vague as before, and I can't extricate myself.

Because this time Jian Ya is very clear...... I was indeed dreaming.

So he just stood at the foot of the mountain, like a stranger or a bystander, calmly waiting for the dream to continue.

Kenya stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the towering mountain.

Perhaps because the dream was unprecedentedly clear, he could now clearly see that the aura in the mountain was turning into rays of light towards the top of the mountain.

Out of curiosity, he didn't absorb those rare aura, but just looked at them quietly, wondering where they belonged in his heart.

Immediately after that, two blue-white lotus flowers suddenly grew at the foot of the mountain, and the petals were just green, without a trace of dust, and there was no core stamen as common as ordinary flowers. This Qinglian is monotonous and boring flawless.

The aura hovered around the lotus flower, and under the nourishment of a large amount of spiritual energy, the two lotus flowers grew sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the petals fell off at the foot of the mountain.

The petals that fell on the ground immediately turned into new green lotus, and in this way, the green lotus quickly expanded, occupying all of his sight, extending to the edge of the sky.

Kenya looked at such a beautiful scenery, and suddenly his heart shook and he couldn't extricate himself.

Then he realized something, so he followed his heart, walked up, stepped on the petals and walked towards the top of the mountain.

The barefoot touch the delicate blue lotus petals, and the slight bounce rises and falls, and this feeling is soft and elastic...... Very wonderful.

Then one step at a time - every time you land, a lotus flower blooms......

This is the way.

So along the way, step by step.

=========================================

Since the establishment of the underworld, after the Yuyuko of the Xixing Temple was appointed by the Enma to manage the ghosts, and based on the intervention of a certain great sage, except for the dead ghosts, few people knew about the existence of the White Jade Tower.

In fact, the underworld is not as terrifying as it is rumored in the world, and most of the souls who stay here are good people who have accumulated merit in their lifetimes.

After all, the original purpose of the Underworld was to provide the ghost with the judgment of the king of Yama...... That is, the place where you stay before being reborn or becoming a Buddha.

This also shows that the underworld is actually the only one in this world that approaches the other side, hell, and heaven at the same time.

Especially after the spring snow mutation, with the nod and permission of the king of Hades, the enchantment was strengthened by Yakumo purple again, which can be said to be forever troubled and sit back and relax.

However, it has been theoretically strengthened several times, and is born under the supervision of King Yama, which is strong, invincible, and has no substance or reality at all—that is, there is no such thing as a barrier that breaks the concept and is almost self-contained......

It was a big hole cut out by his sword so easily.

Youmeng watched a little distractedly as the warm sunlight shone on the westbound demon. In front of the altar, the branches of the westward demon swayed in the wind, and the rope on the tree was shaking desperately, as if it was jumping, as if cheering, as if in amazement.

"How could such a thing happen......

"Youmeng, calm down, the barrier hasn't been completely destroyed. It's not as bad as you think. 」

Yuyuko, who had been holding an umbrella just now, had an unusually calm complexion, just like usual, and her palm gently rubbed Yume's short hair, soothing her inner depression.

But she wasn't at peace in her heart, and now Yuyuko just looked down at the ray of sunlight at her feet, suppressed the surprise in her heart, and began to calculate.

Is it a sword light that you can't ignore even with your eyes closed?

Looking at the cracks that slowly appeared from Yakumo's purple umbrella, Yuyuko's brow began to darken for the first time.

It doesn't have the slightest effect on human Marisa and Reimu, and as a half-spirit demon dream and an undead spirit, he has this kind of pressure......

So is it the spiritual power of the Budu Imperial Soul Sword that is causing trouble?

Feeling the pressure coming from the handle of the umbrella, Yuyuko's right hand trembled slightly, and then her tightly knit brow became heavier and heavier.

Purple, what the hell are you calculating?

……

……

In Reimu's indifferent gaze before, a hint of surprise finally appeared under this sword light.

Unlike Youmu and Yuyuko, who were in the distance of the altar, Reimu was the one who felt the most profound about this sword light except for Yakumo Purple.

In her vision, the world has been transformed into black and white, and everything and everything in this vision ceases to exist.

There is a black and white line......

And, that dazzling and somewhat excessive sword light.

Finding that Reimu couldn't even use the sub-hole hole, his eyes finally began to become solemn.

The sub-hole, which can perform behaviors similar to space jumping to a certain extent, has always been one of the killer tools commonly used by Reimu.

Borrowing from the Purple Realm, the teleportation technique can escape almost any enchantment or prohibition...... Even the purple gap.

In this way, the sub-empty holes that were once tried and tested are now unusable.

Is it because the concept of Nether Barrier has begun to get confused......

Realizing the seriousness of this, she tightened the rune paper in her hand even harder, and said seriously to the big monster in front of her again.

"Purple, though I don't know what you're calculating...... But now is really not the time for you to tease, hurry up and get out of the way, or I'll do it to you!"

"Ahh 」

Faced with the outspoken threat of the invincible witch Hakuri Reimu, who is the strongest in Gensokyo, Yakumo Murasaki just gently opened the paper fan and smiled lightly.

She had already felt the exorcism power that had begun to accumulate in Reimu's body.

She had also seen the hands under Reimu's sleeve robe...... The coin that was held was glittering.

However, Yakumo Purple rarely didn't care about Reimu's small actions, but still repeated the previous words seriously.

"You don't have to worry about the enchantment, the Nether Enchantment hasn't been completely destroyed, and now it's only partially lost. But things like the undead can't easily escape, and I can guarantee this in the name of the Yokai Sage. 」

"What you're doing now is listening to my story...... After all, you have small breasts and can't interject. 」

Then she snapped her fingers, and Reimu's voice vanished.

Ignoring her murderous expression, Yakumo Purple just remained calmly immersed in her own world, and said to herself.

"Luckily, I've had some friendship with that swordsman, and I know a little bit about him. 」

"When I saw Kenya in the Forest of Magic, I was actually surprised. 」

"Or maybe it's really unexpected...... How could there be two people in this world who looked so alike? and they were both swordsmen. 」

"So I made bold inferences and carefully verified...... At the time of the Eternal Pavilion, some temptations were made...... And sure enough......"

"Sword, he...... Not human at all. 」

"Brother, he...... Not human?"

Youmeng's originally tired body suddenly became weaker and weaker. Her mind was suddenly in a trance, and she was completely shocked by Yakumo's previous words.

"Yes, he's not human at all. 」

"How could a human being drive such a terrible Excalibur?"

"How is it possible for humans to easily drink spirit wine that even ordinary ghosts can't drink?"

"After being shot through his right hand by an arrow from Yayi Yonglin, he can still draw his sword like this...... Is this kind of flesh really something that humans can acquire?"

"Besides...... The injury on her right hand was not healed by Yonglin at all. 」

"During the treatment process...... From beginning to end, those injuries were healed by himself. 」

"The Budu Imperial Soul Sword doesn't have the ability to heal its master. 」

Marisa, who was lying on the ground, was pale from the spell that Purple had set up earlier, and she suddenly remembered the scene where Kenya had faced herself with a blade after taking the confession medicine.

Originally...... He's not human......

So, after recovering the memory of becoming a youkai, did you attack me in the first place?

Suddenly, the embarrassed look of Kenya when he first came to the door came to his mind.

But so what?

Taking a deep breath, Marisa desperately mobilized the strength in her body, raised her head very stubbornly, looked at the happy youkai sage with angry eyes, and shouted from the bottom of her heart.

"So what!?You're not a human yourself, are you?"

"No...... It's a big problem. 」

Looking at the young man in green shirt on the altar, Yakumo Zi's eyes overlapped it with the figure of the acquaintance from 1,300 years ago.

Then she clenched the paper fan in her hand hard, settled her mind, and replied very seriously to Marisa's unwillingness.

"He's neither human nor youkai. 」

"What sword you are talking about...... Just a false personality, he is the product of failure in an incomplete rebirth ritual. 」

"All I did was add the final touch to the ceremony......

"In the end, it's just Kenzai's own karma. 」

Yakumo Zi was stunned and remembered some of the past...... Those pasts span several scenes.

On the moon capital, in the crowd, on the hills, between the cliffs, in front of the shrine.

In the end, it was stopped by thousands of troops...... On the green shirt that was dyed red.

She squeezed the paper fan in her hand hard, and reviewed the whole process of this plan for the last time in her heart.

After finally making sure that nothing was missing, she calmly said the last paragraph.

However, it was this paragraph that made everyone present speechless.

"There are three spirit swords in this world...... They each hold a different ministry and represent different powers. 」

"Budu Imperial Soul Sword...... It is a spirit sword of the soul of the imperial envoy. 」

"Thirteen hundred years ago, the swordsman's last resort before his death was to use the power of the Budu Imperial Soul Sword to achieve the purpose of soul reincarnation......

"And it's really a coincidence, the swordsman from thirteen hundred years ago...... It's also called a sword. 」

"I'm wearing a green shirt...... The same has the Budu Imperial Soul Sword...... It has a similar appearance and almost the same breath...... How could there be such a coincidence in this world?"

"And so...... These countless coincidences all point to the same conclusion. 」

"Sword, he is the reincarnation of that swordsman 1,300 years ago...... part of the ceremony. 」

"And the irony is that 1,300 years ago, that swordsman was also called Kenya. 」

"So...... Under my investigation, this sword is not an alien swordsman who has lost his memories of the past at all. 」

"He is the last protection mechanism in this reincarnation ritual......... That is, the sword spirit of this Budu Imperial Soul Sword. 」

"As for the name Kenya...... That's how we understood it 1,300 years ago......

"Sword...... The sword ghost is inhuman. 」

"It's for ......"
