Chapter Forty-Seven: Woe to You
"Well, it looks like we're still a step too late, and the mirror of life that sealed the gods for a long time has been unsealed......"
Walking in the dark dense forest, Mo Chen only heard the footsteps of himself and the witch in front of him, and under his feet were dense and thick fallen leaves and dead branches, thick like a carpet spread in the forest.
I don't know how long it has been accumulating, and it is pitch black in this dead forest, and I can't see my fingers.
"Don't mind, after all, you're also lacking in skills...... This should have been unsealed a few days or more, perhaps shortly after Qu Ling Mo Chen was born. β
Kikyo walked ahead, his voice very soft and flat.
"At that time, we went to fetch the cloud fangs, and he came right here...... Anyway, there's always a trade-off, and if you had been here first, He might have gone to fetch the Tooth. β
Mo Chen nodded: "Well, that's what I said...... I also think it's better to solve the problem of the magic sword first. β
The problem of Shen Jiuye is still relatively tortuous, and it may not be successful, and there are too many elements involved, so it is impossible to completely complete it in a short period of time.
For example, the collection of those five treasures alone takes time.
Therefore, even if Qu Ling Mo Chen started from that aspect, Mo Chen, who noticed the signs, still had a great chance to stop it, because there was enough reaction time in that process.
But if the magic sword Cong Yunya gets it, it only needs to wait until it is unsealed by itself, and then it can really exert the power of destroying the world and destroying the mountains and the sea.
And it's complete from the beginning, so you don't need to collect any materials to strengthen and improve.
Thinking about it like this, it seems to be a matter of course, Mo Chen was the first to react and took the magic sword in his hand, Qu Ling would definitely not be stupid enough to do nothing during this time.
Originally, there were two different goals that were far apart, and when one of them was chosen, the other would definitely fall into the hands of the other, which was a helpless reality.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Qu Ling took the lead in this matter, and the two sides were considered to have tied this one.
Click.
Click.
Silence seems to be the eternal theme of this dark forest, not even the sound of the wind blowing, let alone the sound of birds and insects.
Except for the sound of stepping on the dead branches and fallen leaves on the ground when the two of them walked at this moment, it seemed to be a forbidden area for the extinction of life, and even the surrounding trees seemed to be only an empty shell.
There is no life, no vitality, it seems that time is forever frozen in a moment fifty years ago, and it can no longer move forward......
Maybe it's because God has been sealed here for a long time, and her power has more or less leaked out in the past fifty years, just like the place where Flame Hoof was sealed is as hot as if it was close to a volcanic crater.
However, for the two of them, their senses are extremely keen, and they will naturally not be limited by the dark and dull environment here.
Although the light could not penetrate and the five fingers could not be reached around, it basically had no effect on the two of them.
Kikyo's spiritual sense is extraordinary, and Mo Chen can form a perceptual realm through the movement of air currents...... Although there is not even wind in the forest now, it is completely okay for him to directly open a spell of "Void Perception".
However, the kind of spell that uses magic pulses to sense the surrounding environment and strengthen one's sensory perception ability, after completing the reconstruction of the operation structure and using new spiritual power to drive-
Although the effect is still close to the original expression, the principle and mechanism are completely different.
Should this be said to be the spiritual ability possessed by a spiritual person similar to Kikyo, or is it the "divine sense" in the terminology of cultivation?
Maybe it should be biased towards the former, and there will be a passive effect if you don't turn on the active, and the active effect can easily cover a range of kilometers nearby, accurately capturing all traces of supernatural phenomena or simple wind and grass movements.
Compared with the active effect, the manifestation of the passive effect is actually no different, except that the range is greatly reduced, and the perceptual field can only be maintained within the range of tens or hundreds of meters around the body......
The advantage is that it is passively effective, and there is no need to deliberately maintain and consume.
As for the "divine sense" or something, it's a bit too high, and it's not easy to compare it until you have seen it yourself.
Mo Chen was so divergent in his thinking, but he didn't slow down, and the faint medicinal fragrance emanating from the witch in front of him had been lingering in front of him for a long time.
"Let's go to the villagers in the nearby villages to find out a little more about the specific whereabouts of those five treasures, and then follow those clues......
Kikyo's voice was flat and bland, even in the dark, Mo Chen could imagine that she should be frowning lightly at the moment.
"But I don't understand, why Qu Ling Mo Chen didn't do anything to the villagers here, what is the reason for this?"
"I think we should really ask those villagers, I saw that the village was safe and sound, I thought it was Qu Ling who didn't have time to come here, but now it seems that Bai is happy......"
Mo Chen thought about it along with Kikyo's doubts, and suddenly nodded thoughtfully.
He felt that the witch's doubts were not unreasonable, if his Qu Spirit had been here, why didn't he kill all the villagers and kill them directly?
He will never have any concepts such as five stresses, four beauties, eight honors and eight shames.
Since he knew that even Mo Chen himself didn't know the clues of the other four treasures in detail, wouldn't it be the best choice to simply kill all the villagers who knew about it and put an end to the possibility of regular body tracking?
This should be the most normal thing to do.
So much so that Mo Chen and the witch rushed to the vicinity and found that the village was intact, and the villagers also said that no one else had come to inquire recently, and they subconsciously thought that the two of them had once again taken the lead.
It was only after going deep into the nearby forbidden area, the place where the god had been sealed for a long time, that he found that the other party had been here a long time ago, but he didn't do anything, and he took the mirror of life without knowing it.
What exactly is He trying to do? Are you confident that you will collect all the treasures before Mo Chen, or have you already collected them?
Or is it simply like his attitude towards Inuyasha and the others, the reason why he deliberately left clues is actually to better collect those things with the help of other people's strength, so he doesn't care about killing people?
"Wait, I probably know what's going on - we'll ask the villagers again, but we can't trust any of their words."
Mo Chen, who was thinking about it for a long time, suddenly felt a flash of inspiration, and there seemed to be a lightning bolt in his mind that split the fog, and suddenly he felt that he had suddenly opened up, and he thought that he had grasped the key because of this.
"Huh? You already know? β
Kikyo let out a slightly confused syllable, and subconsciously stopped in the darkness ahead and looked behind him.
She stopped so suddenly, turned around suddenly, and her hair flew flying.
"Hmmββ!!"
It was because he felt that he had grasped the key and was elated, so Mo Chen, who was fully focused and focused on that aspect, almost couldn't stop.
- The danger did not hit head-on.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
As for the other side, the "stupid dispute between the two brothers" in Dao Dao Zhai's mouth has come to an end again, and the results speak for themselves.
It's just like being unreasonable, obviously being beaten all over the body, and the state has been aggravated by the toxin of the claws of the killing pill, so that they have been temporarily blinded......
As a result, at the last critical moment, Inuyasha still opened up, and "just happened" to smell the rift caused by the collision of his own demonic energy and the demonic energy of Sesshomaru, and captured the right track of the power of the Iron Broken Fang.
In the end, at the last moment, he succeeded in swinging the "Wind Wound" - just by swinging the knife lightly, he could directly kill hundreds of monsters, and raze the true power of the demon knife that razed a mountain with one blow.
This can be explained by the fact that when people are out of sight, other sensory perception abilities will be compensated for the enhancement.
So Sesshomaru's toxins, while blinding Inuyasha, instead enhanced his sense of smell, allowing him to catch the flow of wind that he would not normally detect.
But it's like this every time, it's clear that Sesshomaru always has the advantage, but he still repeatedly lets Inuyasha turn the tables against the wind at the last moment for some reason, and no matter how reasonable the explanation is, it's hard to be convincing.
But no matter what, the result will not change, that is, as always, every time the battle is Sesshomaru has the upper hand, and Inuyasha wins the final victory.
Before he finally left, he helped Inuyasha re-sharpen his iron teeth and say something meaningful to him.
Immediately after that, everyone was also unable to take a good rest, and even Inuyasha did not recover from the injuries he had been beaten by his brother, but his eyes were able to see again, and he immediately went on the road again in a hurry.
Because Sunset Kagome sensed the breath of the four soul fragments, according to previous experience, the fragments that could be directly sensed by her were generally within a radius of dozens of kilometers.
It's possible, but it's definitely not too far...... It's still a rest, and it's the right thing to find it quickly.
However, when they arrived at the scene, what they found was-
The quiet village, the blood and corpses all over the ground, and the large number of vultures hovering in the sky were like a dark cloud hanging over everyone's heads.
No matter how lively or dull it had been before this, it was dead now.
"It's ......"
No matter how many times she saw such a tragic situation, Sunset Kagome still felt that she lacked immunity to this kind of thing and found it difficult to accept.
Sango's expression was solemn, and she crouched down to check the ground around her: "There are a lot of beast tracks around the village......
"It's the smell of wolves." Inuyasha raised an eyebrow and came to a conclusion on her behalf.
Master Maitreya observed thoughtfully for a while: "Have you found it?" Only the villagers were killed, but there were no problems with the livestock raised in the village...... I'm afraid this is not something that ordinary wild wolves can do, they are very purposeful. β
"Beasts are generally foraging for food, and this situation is more like a monster revenge...... But can the villagers be qualified to mess with them? β
Coral frowned, then looked at the sailor girl: "Kagome, what about the four soul fragments you felt before, did they appear around here before?" β
"Well, yes, it's just not anymore...... It's like running away on your own legs. Sunset Kagome nodded.
The crowd was not surprised, or rather, this situation was what they expected, and after some summing it up, they decided to follow the direction of the wolf's footprints and the four soul fragments to catch up and see.
"Huh?"
As she left the village, Sunset Kagome turned her head to look somewhere, but she didn't see anything, and she thought it was her own delusion.
After everyone had left, a large feather floated out from behind a cloud in that direction.
Kagura condescendingly looked at the miserable situation in the village below, and then looked in the direction in which Inuyasha and the others had left, thoughtfully.
She was almost ready to make a raid, but she thought of something better at the momentβ
The wolf pack in front should be the Northern Demon Wolf Clan, right? Wouldn't it be better to design it yourself directly and let them fight first?
