Although this dojo is set up underground, everything that can be called a "dojo" can be regarded as a world of its own, and the space is not cramped or oppressive. On the contrary, the lights are bright and brilliant.

This dojo was decorated by Tomofumi Kamo in the form of a traditional Japanese shrine, but compared to other shrines, this one is too gorgeous. The torii gate is carved with bellflower seals and various sigils, the eaves are decorated with glass and enamel, and the steps are paved with smooth obsidian, and you can faintly see the golden light in the gaps in the stone slabs. If you don't know that every dojo is actually a void world built by spiritual power and willpower, even those who are afraid of extravagance will also admire the luxury of the decoration here.

It's just that Tachibana Kanazawa didn't bother to appreciate the exquisite and extravagant decoration here, but climbed the steps directly and pushed open the door of the shrine.

The main hall of the shrine is much larger and more spacious from the inside than it is from the outside, and the inside is brightly lit, and the dense vermilion lacquer pillars connect the roof to the ground, so many that one can't help but wonder if they exist to support them. In the middle of the main hall is a tall altar made of craggy white marble, on which the images of various ghostly spirits and ghosts are savagely and crudely depicted, twisted, huge, and forested. This makes the whole group look like the bones of some kind of behemoth, rather than a man-made object. The altar was covered with a black cloth that covered the center so that it could not be seen what was enshrined on it.

And Kamo Tomofumi sat there with his back to the altar, and opened his hands to the two people who entered the main hall of the shrine: "Welcome, Tachibana-sama." You've finally found it, and you're lucky enough to see such a spectacular sight, and even you're honored. ”

At this time, the appearance of He Mao Zhiwen has changed greatly. He was already emaciated, but now he was in shape, and his skin was loose like a ten-year-old man. It was on such a folded skin that black runes loomed, as if flowing in his body—there was a formation that he had engraved into his body.

With the ups and downs of He Mao Zhiwen's voice, there were also white runes flickering on the countless vermilion lacquer pillars, although the time was still short, not enough for Tachibana Jinze to understand the effect of these rune formations, but it was enough for him to recognize that these runes and the runes on the stone runes were in the same place.

"Tomofumi Kamo, do you know what you're doing?" Tachibana Kanazawa's face was gloomy as water, and his hand was tightly clenched on the red boy.

He Mao Zhifu shook his head lightly and said with a smile: "Tachibana-sama, what do you think I am doing?" ”

"You're chasing the power of the forbidden," Tachibana Kanazawa said coldly, "You have violated the principles of the five elements of yin and yang, betrayed the oath you once made, worshipped evil gods, and became an evil demon." You're hurting someone! ”

With Tachibana Kanazawa's words, Kamo Chiren, who was standing not far behind him, also gasped, first grasped the handle of the knife, and then slowly loosened it, slowly pulled out the ribs, and clenched it with both hands, with the blade facing forward.

"Oh, you've always been cowardly, do you even have the courage to make a move?" He Mao Zhiwen grinned and licked his lips gently, "Chiren, I remember that you have always been the most cordial follower of Lord Tachibana, how could you have such courage to pull out a knife?" ”

"I ......" He Mao Chiren gritted his teeth, and finally snorted coldly and did not reply.

"Because, the Kamo Chiren is an onmyoji." Tachibana Kanazawa's eyes turned into golden vertical pupils in an instant, "Although he is stupid compared to you, he has not given up his dignity as an onmyoji. Onmyoji are all proud because we are beyond mortals. Since we are beyond mortals, we have to bear responsibilities that mortals cannot bear, and this is the source of our pride, and we do not hesitate to sacrifice our lives to protect this pride. Now that you have turned your back on the principle of the five elements of yin and yang and given up your responsibility, you are naturally not worthy of the pride of the onmyoji. In your opinion, it is stupidity for the red man to draw his sword, and in my opinion, it is heroic. ”

"Yes, it's really rare and admirable." He Mao Zhiwen actually nodded slightly, "But what's the use?" If you had killed me a few months earlier, there might have been room for relaxation, but now that this weapon has been forged, it is useless for you to struggle. Even if you kill me, it's useless, because I've already fused with this dojo and this weapon. ”

Tachibana Jinze frowned: "Weapons? What exactly did you do? ”

He Mao Zhiwen laughed and said, "Okay, you are going to die here anyway, even if I am kind enough to solve your doubts, have you ever heard of Tamamo?" ”

"Tamamo mae?" A bad premonition suddenly rose in Tachibana's heart.

How could he not know such a big monster as Tamamo. Tamamo is one of the three major yokai in Japanese legends, and her real life is the "white-faced golden-haired nine-tailed fox", and she was a peerless beauty when she changed into a human form. Legend has it that during the Tang Dynasty, Japan sent an envoy to China, where the nine-tailed demon fox who was chased and killed by Chinese Taoist priests took on a human form and fled to Japan with the ship. Later, he entered the emperor's palace - Emperor Toba favored him before discovering his true body.

Later, Harumaki's grandson divined it and discovered the true identity of Tamakimae, who was hunted down and killed by all over Japan, and after three encirclements and suppressions, he finally died at the hands of Harumaki. The so-called hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, ordinary people may turn into evil ghosts after death, and a big goblin like Tamamo will naturally not die silently. After being killed by Qingming, the corpse in front of Yuzao and its grievances turned into a huge poisonous stone, which can confuse the minds of others and spread the plague, and its name is called "Killing Stone". And Qingming was also injured in this battle, and he was helpless against the killing stone. Until the Muromachi period, the killing stone was destroyed by the eminent monk Genon, but the complete work was not completed, and the fragments of the killing stone were scattered all over Japan.

"That's right, it's Tamamo Mae." He Mao Zhiwen laughed presumptuously, "That's why I said that you should feel honored to witness all this." I brought the former tamamo, or at least part of the pre-tamamo, back to China. Moreover, such a weapon was also refined. ”

Tachibana Kanazawa was stunned at first, and then laughed out loud: "It's better to dream at night." What if you get the shards of the Killing Stone? You can't manipulate its power at all, but you'll be swallowed by it. ”

"Ah...... Don't believe me? He Mao Zhiwen restrained his smile, "In that case, I'll show you my results!" Let you see the true face of this weapon! ”

With the wave of his arm, the black cloth that had originally covered the altar flew up and landed aside, revealing the things on the altar. After Tachibana Kanazawa saw the things enshrined on the altar, he suddenly appeared with a demon body, his eyes widened, and a low roar came out of his throat: "He Mao Zhifumi! How dare you! ”

On this altar was a huge stone, the color of which was as bright as amber, and it was unusually transparent. The black cloth should also be a magic weapon, without its cover, the thick and turbulent demonic energy is wantonly emitted from this stone.

But if it's just a poisonous stone, it won't make Tachibana Jinze lose his temper so much, attributed to the reason, in this poisonous stone, there is a huge fox demon body sealed! It was like an insect in amber, wrapped in a whole poison stone, and a long knife pierced its chest, a chain of runes imprisoned on its body.

The white fox was slender and beautiful, with six tails floating behind it, and it seemed to be moving slowly, but without the slightest anger. But the moment it appeared in Tachibana Kanazawa's eyes, Tachibana Kanazawa could not help but conjure up a demon body. He could feel the closeness of the blood, the feeling of being one. Tachibana felt that he had belonged to a part of this fox demon, and the demon blood on his body came from this demon fox.

That is to say, this fox demon is his mother!

"You're right, if it's just a fragment of the Killing Stone and hands it over to me, I can't do anything." He Mao Zhiwen slowly walked up to the altar and gently stroked the killing stone with his hand, "However, if there is a big demon who is in the same vein as Yuzao as a suppression, I can use the formation to urge the power of the killing stone." Is it pretty? It's like a work of art. Although it is a weapon, every time I see it, I can't help but be fascinated by its beauty. Now, are you convinced? ”

Tachibana's body trembled uncontrollably. He pulled out the red boy, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "He Mao Zhiwen, you have completely angered me, and after I kill you, I will imprison your soul." As long as I live, I will put your soul through the most horrible torment I can imagine, as if you were in an infernal hell, never to be turned over. ”

"Dreams, it's better to do it at night." He Mao Zhifumi smiled, "I will return this sentence to you as it is, Tachibana-sama." You must know that this weapon is to be used in war, manipulating the dead, spreading the plague, and having a six-tailed demon fox as the core of the killing stone fragment, the power exerted is by no means comparable to a person. In front of the Killing Stone, you want to kill me, it's a pipe dream. Don't resist, all you do is a mantis arm as a cart, hitting a stone with an egg. ”

"Well, let's give it a try!" Tachibana Jinze roared angrily, and the aura around his body was surging, and one by one the talismans flew out of his arms, forming a bellflower seal in front of him, "I swear in the name of the principle of the five elements of yin and yang, I, I will kill you, He Mao Zhiwen, this traitor who has betrayed the way of yin and yang, under the sword, imprison the soul, and live forever!" ”

"Oh? It's ridiculous to swear by the principles of the five elements of yin and yang! He Mao Zhiwen licked his lips again, "Just by you, do you want to be an enemy of us?" ”

We? Tachibana Jinze thought in his heart, and before he could ask, he felt that his heart lit up, his chest ached, and the aura in his body dissipated with a snap of his fingers, leaving no trace behind. He coughed, and the blood gushing from his throat choked him so much that he could barely speak.

Tachibana Kanazawa lowered his head, and a bright red knife tip pierced out of his chest, and when he looked back, this rib was being held in the hands of Kamo Chiren. At this time, Kamo Chiren, with tears in his eyes, panting, immediately knelt down and touched the ground with his head after looking at Tachibana Kanazawa...... We can't let you stop us. ”
