The sun was gradually setting in the west, and Ling Yun's figure appeared in front of a Japanese building.

"Well, there is a trace of residual demonic energy in the air, that is, is it a monster that fought with the Westbound Demon before?" Ling Yun stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and a touch of demonic energy appeared in his hand, and then it collapsed.

"The monster that can make the westward demon suffer must be at the top level among the big monsters, but I don't know if this big monster survived in the end. And, according to what I heard, the girl named Yuyuko of Seiyuji Temple has been stationed in this courtyard for a long time. If you add the person Yuyuko of Xixing Temple, it is said that it is not the person who fought with the Xixing Demon this time, it is the monster sage Yakumo Murasaki, then she should still be alive now. Ling Yun thought with some wickedness.

Ling Yun stood outside the door, looking towards the center of the courtyard. In the center of the garden, there is a huge cherry tree that looks like it has dried up. Although the cherry blossom tree looked dry, Ling Yun still felt the majestic aura from the tree.

Regarding the legend of the Westward Demon, Ling Yun had also heard of it. Legend has it that once upon a time, there was a revered singer. When the singer was old and felt that his time was short, he found a cherry blossom tree and fell into eternal sleep under the tree. And this ordinary cherry blossom tree seems to have absorbed some kind of power of the singer, and the cherry blossoms are blooming more and more prosperously and beautifully, attracting more and more people.

And it seems that it is because Gesheng chose to sleep forever under this tree, many people who are approaching their longevity think that this cherry blossom tree has something unusual, so they also choose to sleep forever under the tree. In this case, the cherry blossom trees are blooming more and more, and the number of people who are sleeping under the trees is increasing.

Later, I don't know what happened to this cherry blossom tree, but it was able to absorb the breath of death produced by the dead people, and at the same time turn the dead people into their own nourishment, and gradually grew into a demon tree that can lead people to death.

However, this is just the beginning. As more and more of the aura of death absorbed by itself, the cherry blossom tree changed again. What was originally the ability to guide dead creatures to come here to sleep forever turned out to be an evil youkai that induces all living beings to come here to die. Not only humans, but even some youkai who came here couldn't help but sleep in this place. And the demonic aura of these monsters has promoted the growth of this cherry blossom tree.

As things continue to ferment, more and more people sleep under this cherry blossom tree, and the power of the cherry blossom tree becomes more and more powerful, and people finally discover that this cherry blossom is abnormal. In the end, the onmyoji, demon slayer, and ascetic monks of the human race, united with the extremely powerful Saiyuji clan at the time, and finally established an enchantment to seal the cherry blossom without knowing how many people were sacrificed.

Since then, this cherry blossom tree has had a name, the Westward Demon. By the way, to prevent the Westward Demon from making trouble again, the Westward Temple family also sent people to garrison this barrier. However, even if the Westward Demon is sealed, it still has a powerful ability, constantly inducing the Westward Temple members who are guarding here to die. Therefore, the people who guard here are often the most powerful people in the Xixing Temple. However, they also had difficulty resisting the abilities of the Westbound Demon, so it didn't take long for the defenders here to be replaced.

However, all this changed completely after the appearance of a girl named Yuyuko. Since the birth of Yuyuko in Saigyoji Temple, she has the ability to control the undead. After the family's discussions, they agreed that Yuyuko was the best person given by God to seal the Westward Demon.

It is for this reason that Yuyuko was sent to this courtyard at a very young age. In order to let Yuyuko establish an invisible relationship with the Westward Demon, and prepare for the future sealing of the Westward Demon. And because of his connection with the Westward Demon, after sealing the Westward Demon, the girl will inevitably die.

For this predetermined fate, the kind-natured Yuyuko did not feel sad. Maybe she was surprised, but in the end she chose to agree. This is the mission of her birth, and she thinks it is a worthwhile thing to exchange her life for the lives of many people. And at the end of the story, Yuyuko of Xixing Temple did use herself as a sacrifice to completely seal the Xixing Demon.

"A predetermined fate? This is really annoying! Ling Yun stood outside the courtyard and clenched his fists.

He didn't go straight into the courtyard, but waited for the sun to set over the skyline little by little.

Because this place is sealed with a demon tree, no one usually dares to come to this place, so no one finds out that there is no one more person here.

As the days passed, the night grew deeper. Ling Yun could feel that the death qi that was originally just a wisp of death began to become stronger. Ling Yun could even hear a subtle voice in his ear, inducing him to die.

In Ling Yun's perception, this cherry blossom tree has been exuding an aura that induces people to die from beginning to end, but during the daytime, under the suppression of the sun, this power is not obvious. But at night, without the suppression of the power of the sun, this power begins to radiate unscrupulously. If it weren't for the presence of a sealing enchantment in this courtyard, and this kind of aura emanating out, then the city that Ling Yun arrived at before would have already become a dead city.

"No wonder no one dares to come to this place, this is already the realm of the Westward Demon that has completely turned into a westward demon. Judging from the current situation, the seal on the Westward Demon should not last long. Ling Yun easily dispelled the voice in his head. It's been a long time since I came to this world, and now I can finally do it well. Let me see the strength of the top monsters in this world! ”

The current time period is the time period when the Westward Demon is the strongest. The reason why he waited outside until now was to see which of the westbound demons in the strongest state was stronger or weaker than him. After all, the aura emanating from this cherry blossom tree was not inferior to the Eight Meaning Yonglin he had encountered before. He is not easy to do with Bayi Yonglin, but he really has no pressure at all to deal with such a cherry blossom tree.

Ling Yun exhaled lightly, and the strength in his body increased to the extreme in an instant, and he stepped into the courtyard.
