Section 91 Ritual Instruments

A month has passed, and the tiny island of Shikoku has calmed down. Zhu Yunwen also sobered up from his meditation, and the wisp of divine consciousness left on Zhang Yan made him clear about Zhang Yan's trial in the past month.

Zhang Yan had already left Shikoku Island with the escort team, and accompanied by Zheng Zhibao, stayed in the imperial palace where the Emperor of Edohara Wakoku lived. Under Zhang Yan's command, Honshu Island has now also accelerated the removal of the statues of the former Wakoku shrines.

Asama Shrine, located on the north side of Mt. Fuji, which is also the symbol of Fuso, is the most important shrine in Edo Ward, and has a long history of ninja warriors who have been trained for the Imperial Family.

The Ming Empire invaded, Edo fell, and the Emperor fell. In order to save the emperor, Asama Shrine almost poured out of the nest. As a result, the Asama Shrine, where the Emperor was loyal to the Emperor's Tadashi and the Imperial Family, was wiped out overnight.

After the ninja escaped from Edo and fled back to Asama Shrine, the presiding priest of the shrine, who received the tragic news, immediately disbanded Asama Shrine, causing all the ninja warriors and goddesses to flee in scattered pieces.

When Zhang Yan arrived here with her escort, the Asama Shrine was so dilapidated that even civilians fleeing the war did not want to live here.

Looking at the ruins of Asama Shrine, Zhang Yan shook her head, took the map handed by the guard, crossed Asama Shrine on the map, looked up at the direction, stretched out his hand, and led the army to kill the Kyoto area.

The small Wakoku archipelago claims to have 8 million gods, and there are naturally many shrines and temples dedicated to the gods. In addition to Asama Shrine, the most famous shrines on the island of Honshu include Inari Shrine and Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine in Kyoto, as well as the most mysterious Ise Shrine.

At the time of the fall of Edo and the Ming Empire, Ise Shrine, like Asama Shrine, almost poured out of the nest. Luckily for Asama Shrine, more ninjas and samurai survived the battle outside Edo Castle and fled back to Ise Shrine, which was hidden in the primeval forest.

It's just that this kind of strength is only in terms of the resistance forces of the Japanese state. For the Ming Empire, it is just a slightly larger grasshopper.

Zhang Yan's original plan was to encircle and suppress this Ise Shrine after clearing the other shrines and temples. After all, this Ise Shrine was built in the middle of a primeval forest, and without the assistance of the cultivation team, the army would be damaged by ordinary soldiers entering and exiting, and there might even be greater losses.

Moreover, there are already cultivators in the Ise Shrine, plus they also have one of the so-called three artifacts of the Wa Kingdom, the Yaga Mirror. Today, when the aura of heaven and earth is restored, no one knows whether this so-called artifact has a power that people don't know.

In addition, if other shrines and temples are cleared, those fish that have slipped through the net and fled in the direction will only be Ise Shrine. At that time, it will also be convenient to wipe out these stubborn resistance forces.

When Zhang Yan cleared the shrine and temple on Honshu Island, Zhu Yunwen also left the island at the time of the catastrophe, and walked to Honshu Island.

Zhu Yunwen summoned white clouds, and flew into the air of Ise Shrine in a leisurely manner, while quietly singing Huang Ting, while waiting for the arrival of Zhang Yan and others.

One after another, there were ninja warriors and priests who fled into the mountains and into the Ise Shrine. The atmosphere at Ise Shrine began to become tense.

Every day, ninja warriors enter the jungle and set traps to welcome their compatriots who flee. There are also some resistors who feel that something is inviolable, and sneak out of Ise Shrine in disguise, incognito to obey the rule of the Ming Empire.

Zhu Yunwen just watched all this happen silently, not caring how many people slipped out of Ise Shrine, nor how many people joined Ise Shrine.

It wasn't until a month later, when the forest near Ise Shrine was full of all kinds of traps, that Zhang Yan finally led the army of the Ming Empire to the outside of this primeval forest.

Entering the primeval forest without recklessness, Zhang Yan sent ten members of the cultivation team to fly over the primeval forest with flying swords to investigate the situation in this primeval forest.

The situation on the periphery of the primeval forest was clearly depicted in the divine sense scanning of the members of the cultivation team. But when the members of the cultivation team were about to approach the Ise Shrine deep in the dense forest with their flying swords, a faint light that was almost invisible to the naked eye swept slightly in the air.

Zhu Yunwen in the air looked stunned, he had never found such a glimmer of light before. Zhu Yunwen released his divine sense, and saw that with the appearance of this glimmer of light, the members of the cultivation team who were investigating intelligence over the forest drove the flying sword and swept over the Ise Shrine in a daze, and what was reported to Zhang Yan was that no trace of the Ise Shrine had been found.

Zhu Yunwen suddenly became interested, and at this moment, the glimmer of light appeared again, and the members of the cultivation team who were returning to explore once again swept over the Ise Shrine in a daze and ignorance.

This time, Zhu Yunwen finally discovered the source of the glimmer, which was a bronze mirror with a simple shape that was enshrined in the main hall. And this bronze mirror is also one of the so-called three artifacts of the Wa Kingdom.

Zhu Yunwen was shocked, when the divine sense explored the Ise Shrine, he didn't find that the Yaga Mirror had this function. Unexpectedly, this so-called artifact of the Japanese Kingdom is really a magic weapon.

Zhu Yunwen's divine sense immediately probed into the Ise Shrine and carefully observed the Yachi Mirror. After a while, Zhu Yunwen shook his head in disappointment, this so-called artifact Eight Mirrors turned out to be a magic weapon left by a Qi Refiner in the ancient pre-Qin period, and there was still the inheritance of this pre-Qin Qi refiner in it.

I don't know what's going on, this magic weapon fell to the Wa Kingdom, and it even became one of the three artifacts of the Wa Kingdom.

For Zhu Yunwen, this magic weapon is just a low-level magic weapon, and after the aura recovery is replenished, it only has some effects of disturbing the divine sense and sight, and it can barely be used as a trap for the enemy.

It's just that the Wa Kingdom has been getting this magic weapon for so long, but it has never found the correct usage, and it has not been able to get the inheritance left by the pre-Qin Qi refiners inside.

Zhang Yan was rewarded by the members of the cultivation team, but she never found the specific location of the Ise Shrine, and couldn't help but look at the map and frown for a long time.

In the confession of those ninja warriors and priests who are willing to surrender to the Ming Empire, Ise Shrine is obviously in this primeval forest, why can't it be found?

At this moment, Zhu Yunwen's voice came into Zhang Yan's ears: "Yan'er, there is a magic weapon in the Ise Shrine that has the effect of disturbing the divine consciousness and sight. If you let the members of the cultivation team form a seven-star formation and resist the effect of magic weapons with the power of the formation, you will naturally be able to discover the specific location of Ise Shrine. ”

When Zhang Yan heard Zhu Yunwen's voice, she immediately burst into a happy smile, and when she saw a white cloud in the sky staying above the forest, she immediately understood that the master had already arrived here.

Zhang Yan immediately ordered the members of the probing cultivation team to return to the team, form a seven-star Tiangang array, and investigate again. He flew up and flew above the white clouds in the air, looking at Zhu Yunwen with a smile on his face, and whispered about his trial during this time.
