Chapter Sixty-Eight: Meteors Pierce the Sky
Qiang――
The sword qi was rampant, and dozens of hideous-looking monsters were torn to pieces in an instant. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I feel like these monsters are going berserk all of a sudden, is it my delusion?"
Letting go of the sword and letting her change back into Esther's appearance, Su Mo wondered.
Behind him, the shattered flesh of the youkai spilled all over the road - the same youkai that were red-eyed and attacking him and Esther in an almost frantic way along the way.
"They seem to be unusually excited."
While they don't pose much of a threat to themselves, the sheer number of these bugs is quite annoying.
Especially for psychologically.
Now these youkai seem to be in a state of being overwhelmed by drugs or being strongly stimulated by something very tempting, and their own psychology is quite twisted, and they become more irritable, and their minds are full of desires for destruction and robbery.
Along the way, Su Mo had seen villages destroyed by youkai more than once—and even cities garrisoned by samurai and armies had been captured.
"Yes, has something come into the world?"
And it's a rare treasure with a strong temptation to monsters, just like the jade of the four souls back then.
"Speaking of which, the Jade of the Four Souls has also disappeared with the bellflower for fifty years....... yes, fifty years—what the hell!!! ”
Just as Su Mo remembered the past fifty years ago and began to sigh, the sky, which had already reached evening, so it was quite dim, was instantly lit up - illuminated by countless meteor-like lights!
It was as if the box, which had been covered in darkness and therefore looked rather dark, had suddenly been sliced open and a strong light pierced in.
A momentary change directly made Su Mo burst into foul language.
Phew――
At the same time, the three rays of light seemed to slow down and fall towards Su Mo from the sky due to exhaustion.
Reached.
"This ......."
And Su Mo, who had cut it off, spread out his palm, and lying in his hand were three fragments of different shapes but absolutely the same material.
And the breath that flowed on these fragments and the sensations they brought him........
"The strength is much weaker, but there is no doubt that this is the Jade of the Four Souls......... A fragment of the Jade of the Four Souls? ”
His pupils shrank, and although this thing called the Jade of the Four Souls had almost no attraction for an existence of his level, Su Mo couldn't help but feel a slight chill in his heart when he thought of the tragedy that had happened around this thing.
"Why did the Jade of the Four Souls shatter?"
I guess the thing that lit up the sky and flew in all directions was also a fragment of the Jade of the Four Souls.
"And........ Why did the Jade of the Four Souls reappear? ”
Obviously, that thing has been cremated and disappeared with Kikyo, and even if it appears, it will only follow her reincarnation.
However, it would take at least hundreds of years to be reincarnated.......
Clenching the three fragments in his hand, Su Mo's eyes looked far away in the direction where Fengzhi Village was located.
"Esther, we need to speed up!"
............
And at the same time, on the other side........
"Jade of the Four Souls....... Shattered...... Shattered...... What the hell did I you stupid woman!!! ”
Looking at the fragment lying in his hand with a broken face, the red-clothed, silver-haired, and dog-eared Yazi roared in a low voice.
"What, what a stupid woman! Aren't you a woman yourself?! ”
Then Kagome, who was scolded, answered the point quite strangely.
"What can I do! Who knew that the arrow just now would shoot through the Jade of the Four Souls when it shot the monster to death!! ”
Loudly argued.
The thing is roughly like this, the jade of the four souls on Kagome's body was snatched away by a crow monster, and in order to snatch it back, Miss Kagome opened her bow and shot an arrow to the clouds, and then the monster hung up, and as a result, the arrow also shot directly through the jade of the four souls quite casually, causing it to shatter, and in the end, I don't know how many fragments were broken, and they flew to all parts of the world (island country.......
Yes, very strongly.
So Miss Yoko, who had just come out of the seal, collapsed: "How can a person like you be the reincarnation of Kikyo!! I don't admit it!!! ”
Because she didn't have a knife in her hand, Yeko couldn't catch up with the crow demon flying high in the sky with her bare hands, so now she was very angry, regretful and disappointed.
"If I had a knife in my hand......."
Completely mired in remorse.
“........ Hey, what are we going to do after that? ”
Although she realized that she had done something wrong, Kagome, who also thought that it was something that could not be helped, asked cautiously.
"There's only one way - Kagome, you and Yako go and collect all the four soul jade fragments!"
Then, an old voice came—an old witch with a black patch in her right eye.
"Whew!? Just me and this violent woman!? ”
Hearing this, Kagome was stunned all of a sudden, and pointed to the unhappy Yezi beside him, and his fingers trembled a little.
"I don't want to be with you guy who only drags his feet! The matter of collecting the Jade of the Four Souls is enough for me alone!! ”
And Yezi even left this sentence and turned to leave.
“....... What kind of attitude do you have!! ”
Kagome, who was treated in this way, was equally angry.
"Kagome, forgive Yezi."
At this time, the old shrine maiden sighed and said this to her.
"Huh?! That kind of guy!! ”
Kagome said that she had never seen such a savage guy, and that she was a woman!
"For Yezi, the Jade of the Four Souls is very important."
The shrine maiden continued.
"Huh? Because she's a half-demon, she wants to gain more power through the Jade of the Four Souls? ”
"No, Yezi is actually very powerful, even if she doesn't have the Jade of the Four Souls, she can stand at the top, and the Jade of the Four Souls is important to her to a greater extent because of one person."
The old witch's expression became serious—and there was a hint of nostalgia.
"Because of this jade of the four souls, she met someone who changed her life. And because of this jade of the four souls, she also lost her, and then she had to sleep for fifty years......."
"That person, that's the one I said before, Kikyo?"
"yes, she's still in the grief of the past—oh no, she's been asleep for fifty years, so for Yoko, that thing happened just yesterday......."
The old witch's old voice also carried a hint of sadness: "That day, Sister Kikyo died. Yako had to be sealed to keep her name. And Uncle Mo, who rushed back a step too late, was even more crazy, and that sword made not a single monster dare to invade this maple village for fifty years........."
"Uncle Mo? The sword? ”
Because she probably knew something about Kikyo and Yako, Kagome focused on something else she had never heard of.
"Do you see the valley outside the village?"
The old witch stretched out her hand and pointed.
"Hmmm! It's strange that there are trees all around, but there is no grass growing there. ”
"Then let me tell you, it was originally a mountain peak, and then someone slashed a sword at it." (To be continued.) )
