There will be so many evil spirits gathered here because of the environment, and the open space is partly because the aura is too strong, but the evil spirits can't set foot in it, but the power that spreads to the surroundings constitutes an environment suitable for the evil spirits to live.

The birth of ghosts is roughly divided into two kinds, one is that the soul of a person after death does not enter reincarnation under a certain force and intention, and becomes a spirit body that can exist in this world, and if it is formed by resentment, it is a resentful spirit or an evil spirit; One is that a large amount of spiritual power is concentrated in spirits that have been influenced by some kind or naturally conceived.

The evil spirits that appear here all belong to the latter type, because the power of the four seasons has affected the spiritual veins here, becoming an abnormal node, making the balanced spiritual energy become miasma, so the evil spirits will continue to appear.

If this place is not completely purified, or the spiritual veins are restored, then it will not be long before evil spirits will appear here.

The four seasons now perform the so-called "purification" ritual.

However, Shiki does not use the methods of Shinto or Buddhism commonly used in this country, and certainly not the rituals of other places, which are unique to Shiki.

The consciousness of the four seasons goes deep into the depths of the earth, in the veins of the planet like veins.

The four seasons can feel the subtle difference between the spiritual veins here and the spiritual veins of the Moon World, the spiritual veins are not only a channel for spiritual power and magic power, but also a channel for transporting souls to a cycle of life on this planet. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the chances of a ghost being born in this world are so great.

Because the four seasons have just come here, there is only a limit to what they can go into, but there is no problem in completing the purification here.

As if in response to the call of the four seasons, the surrounding trees swayed, and the breeze with the scent of spring blew into the clearing, which seemed to be still in winter.

In a trance, Miyuki and Hatsuzakura seemed to see countless green grasses break through the wasteland under their feet and grow, as if they had experienced spring all over again.

But in the blink of an eye, all the illusions were gone, and the surrounding area was still the same clearing, but the atmosphere here had changed.

"It's done."

This job is still quite simple for the four seasons, he had done the thing of purifying the land with the soul of the soul when he was in Gensokyo, and this time it is even simpler, as long as the negative energy such as death qi and miasma are cleaned up.

"Let's get out of here first, someone's coming."

After saying that, Shiki left here with everyone.

…………

A transport helicopter flew over the vast forest, and the strong wind from the propellers rustled the leaves below.

After receiving the news from the headquarters, Iwabata, Kensuke and others immediately transferred to the helicopter and flew to the scene.

Due to the events that have occurred in the past and the increasingly severe situation today, the countermeasures room has finally been granted the right to use the helicopter after negotiations with various parties, and finally there is no longer such a thing as encountering traffic jams on the way.

Therefore, less than half an hour after receiving the order, they came to the heavy spiritual disaster area near the target location, collectively known as the "Black Domain".

"Kensuke, when the time comes, you must not move around without my order!"

Iwabata reminded with a serious face.

"Got it, you've said it several times on the road."

Kensuke nodded, and he became nervous when Iwabata said it.

"Is the situation really that serious there?"

Kyoko asked with some curiosity.

"Danger, Naboo."

"Be careful, Naboo."

The Nabu brothers, who are also seniors in the countermeasure room, nodded their heads.

"It's not something that can be described as serious."

Iwabata continued.

"I told you about that incident before, right? That's the final battleground. ”

"Is it there?"

"Hmm. At that time, during the battle, a folk exorcist became a Type A evil spirit due to the influence of the Killing Stone, and is now codenamed 'Heavenly Demon' in the records. ”

"What, the generic name of this RPG boss."

Kensuke couldn't help but complain.

"Is the 'Heavenly Demon' the one in Buddhism?"

Obviously, Kyoko, who knows more about mystical knowledge, doesn't think of games all at once.

"Hmm. It's that scary. The entire countermeasure room can only be killed in seconds, even the spirit beast Bai Rui can easily solve it, and people like me can't even get close at all, and in the end, I sacrificed several powerful exorcists to die with the other party. Anyway, I don't want to meet that guy again in my life. ”

Iwabata said with deep feeling.

Kensuke and Kyoko were speechless, Kensuke's feelings were not too deep, but Kyoko, who grew up in the exorcist family since childhood, certainly understood the meaning.

"After that battle, the area was completely polluted, just the evil spirits of Type B, and what is even more terrifying is that once you are in the center for a long time, you will be affected mentally, and we have tried to purify it many times before, but we have no choice but to isolate it."

As they spoke, they crossed the cordon, and the clearing in the center of the battlefield in the distance appeared in front of them.

Then they noticed the anomaly.

"What's going on?"

Iwabata's eyes widened.

"What happened?"

Kensuke, who is relatively weak, hasn't noticed anything wrong yet.

"Is it really here?"

Kyoko, whose strength is still better than Iwabata, of course, also noticed the situation below.

There is no phenomenon of spiritual calamity at all, and there is no gathering of evil spirits, and there is an ordinary forest below, if it weren't for the fact that the clearing is still there, it would not even be able to be distinguished.

"How so?"

"Could it be that someone has purified?"

"How is it possible, it was caused by the 'Heavenly Demon'!"

Even though he knew that Kyoko's explanation was reasonable, Iwabata felt a little irritated.

However, there was no problem at all below, and there was information from the countermeasure room that the aura pressure there had completely returned to normal.

The members of the processing team in the countermeasure room went down to the open space to check again, and found no clues other than to make sure that the place was completely normal.

The only information that can be gleaned is that something must have happened here not so long ago to bring it back to normal.

Nowadays, when the spiritual disasters are getting more and more serious, and the appearance of evil spirits is becoming more and more frequent, they don't know if this is a good thing.

The group of people who worked in vain could only go home like this.

But what they don't know is that a series of their actions are all captured by the Four Seasons.

"Heavenly Demon?"

Miyuki squinted at the four seasons beside her.

"What the hell have you done to them?"

"Hmm...... I guess that's a pretty excessive thing. ”

Shiki thought for a moment, then replied.

"I have to apologize to them when I go back."

"If you show up, the first thing they think about is to shoot instead of listening to you, right?"

"It's okay, use a little bit of violence, I think they'll listen."
