At 23 o'clock in the middle of the night, Chen Xihao followed Takemoto to ambush two thorns of the Yamada group before returning to the Nagata family.

"So, not long after I left, someone from the Hell Maidens team came back here and harvested a human soul?"

"Yes, the girl who was sent to hell is the half-sister of Arina and Ahira, unlike these two siblings, that girl completely inherited the inferior roots of Kensuke Nagata, and is a bad bad girl, listening to Ahira say that the person who cursed her was a male classmate who had been bullied by her for a long time, and she was also to blame for her fate."

"For all good and evil, just this practice. These guys, do they think of themselves as the masters of the human world......"

At this moment, Chen Xihao's eyes were sharp, and after listening to Ryoko Hashimoto's description, he seemed to have a deep opinion on the group of people who loved Enma, especially Sen Xue was still by their side, which always made Chen Xihao not mind.

In fact, as Chen Xihao said, the master of this human realm where Japan is currently located is indeed not human beings themselves.

At this time, a team sent by Asama Jingu had already arrived in Hokkaido.

----

Japan's Jigokudani refers to the remains of a volcanic crater located in the city of Noboribetsu in Hokkaido, also known as "Noboribetsu Jigokudani".

This ruins were formed about 12,000 years ago, a strange valley formed by lava after a volcanic eruption; The 450-meter-diameter crater is still spitting clouds and mist, releasing yellow-brown sulfur with a pungent smell, so there is no grass growing in the valley, and in the long run, it is called Noboribetsu Jigokudani.

Although the Noboribetsu Jigokudani is only 200 meters above sea level, the combination of geothermal heat and mountain springs produces a huge white smoke, making Noboribetsu Jigokudani full of smoke. The whole of Jigokudani was shrouded in white smoke. Although there is no grass growing in Jigokudani, the spring water flowing from the base of the mountain is a superb hot spring with special healing properties, producing up to 3,000 liters of water per minute. Depending on the location, the quality of the source water gushing out of the spring varies, but there are as many as 11 types.

However, to this day, every vent in Jigokudani still spews hot air with a loud "puffy" sound, as if the entire valley mouth roared from the ground, and the smoke was rising, as if hellfire could burst out at any time. The hot smoke emitted by the Jigokudani blowholes makes people feel as if they are in a hell bathed in fire, and there are even some nameless small water vents, which trickle like a sad voice, like crying from the ground.

According to locals, if you put a "hat" on Jigokudani and prevent its hot springs and water vapor from gushing out, it will only take a year to accumulate the energy of a volcanic eruption. Therefore, we should be thankful for this image of the mountain smoking, which took away a huge amount of energy and kept Jigokudani safe for almost 10,000 years.

In addition, the local government is said to have closed the area deep into the mouth of the valley in Noboribetsu Jigokudani to ensure the safety of the people, and all tourists are prohibited from visiting.

But at this moment, a team of more than ten people is stepping into this forbidden area of Noboribetsu Hell Valley.

The leader of the team was a priest in red and white robes, he led the way to the depths of the Hell Valley, the heavy smell of sulfur on both sides of the nose, the deeper they went, the more the white mist grew, the rocks on both sides of the path, because of the magma from the depths of the earth seeping out of the rock crevices and condensing, dyeing the entire surface of the earth a scarlet color, and bringing a bit of hideousness to the blazing valley.

At the end of the trail is a huge crater emitting billowing smoke and white gas, the size of seven or eight football fields.

Standing on the edge of the pit, the hot air hit the face, which made everyone except for the immobile priest in the lead keep wiping the sweat dripping from their foreheads.

At this time, a priest who had appeared on the outskirts of the Suicide Forest and had controlled the "White Powder Woman", Hikari Shinkan, walked from the team to the side of the leading priest, and asked cautiously, "Kagura-sama, the fog ahead is too heavy, should we put Shikigami down first and find the spiral staircase?" ”

The priest known as Kagura had a cold face, and said lightly, "Hikarimoto! Do you know why among the three young priests who came to Hell Valley to deliver the message this time, it was me, and not the other two?! ”

"Of course, it is because Kagura-sama has the highest prestige and is also the strongest person among the three young priests who is most likely to take over the position of the great priest, so the great priest will ask you to complete this difficult task of communicating with the hell realm."

The priest Hikaru continued to pat Kagura's horse in a hurry.

"You know it's a daunting task?? Going to Tokyo is obviously fat, but it fell on the other two guys, and this kind of hard-working and thankless work fell on me, do you know who gave it? Well?? ”

Kagura's tone became more and more aggressive, his eyes gradually became colder, staring at the body of the priest of Mitsumoto, Mitsumoto instantly felt like hundreds of millions of steel needles pierced into his body, and the sharp pain hit, and the beads of sweat the size of the beans of Hikara Ben's pain rolled down but he didn't dare to let out a cry of pain.

"Poof!"

Hikari knelt on the ground, his forehead touched the bottom, and muttered, "Kagura-sama, it's all to blame for the incompetence of his subordinates!" At that time, in the depths of the Suicide Forest, his subordinates had already captured two good billets that could be witches, but they were intercepted by two big monsters on the side of Huafeng Temple. Your subordinates are sorry for you, please punish you! ”

"Of course I know that your actions were hindered by that guy from Huafeng Courtyard, if it weren't for that, I would have killed you a long time ago! Today, is to teach you a lesson to remember later! Put all the wisdom where it needs to be used, and don't use it where it doesn't! Honestly do the things that are handed over to you, and don't talk too much about the things you shouldn't worry about! ”

"Yes! Subordinates know their mistakes! ”

The priest did not dare to get up, but still prostrate on the ground, prostrating himself to Kagura again and again.

"Get up! Take a good look behind you, if you still make mistakes in the future, then there are many people waiting for you to be unlucky and ready to take over your position as a priest! Hum! ”

After Kagura finished saying this, she threw a talisman from her cuff, and the talisman burned in the wind, instantly dispelling the white mist in this area of Taniguchi, and a staircase clinging to the bottom of the valley appeared at the edge of the pit, leading to the depths of the bottomless valley.

After the spiral staircase appeared, Kagura walked down first, and although he had already walked away, Mitsumoto did not get up immediately, he still maintained a prostrate and prostrated posture. Beside him, one after another white-clad priests passed, and without looking up, he could feel the gazes cast on him, some gloating, some vicious and resentful, and some envious and jealous, but none of them were full of sympathy.

When the last priest walked down the spiral staircase, Hikari slowly climbed up, his expression did not seem to change, only a slight flicker appeared in his eyes.

The total number of people at the Asama Shrine headquarters and 1,300 branches is about 20,000, and among the more than 20,000 people, the top of the pyramid is the highest-ranking priest, and then there is one great priest, three young priests, and more than 30 powerful priests.

As for the remaining more than 200 ordinary priests, more than 1,000 shrine maidens, and 1,300 branch leaders, all of them belong to the shrine's alternate forces.

As one of the more than 30 senior priests of the Asama Taisha Shrine after the young priest, his background is not gorgeous, he belongs to the priest who climbed up from the bottom, and he has experienced too many open and secret battles along the way, since he can climb up, he will never allow himself to fall again.

Before walking down the hell staircase, Mitsumoto gave a command on the soul link to several youkai who were waiting in the Noboribetsu forest on the outskirts of Noboribetsu Hell Valley, and then he straightened his sleeves and followed the team in front of him into the valley bottom staircase, preparing to enter the center of the earth.
