Chapter 33: A Corner of the World

Kaede's injuries weren't directly fatal, but they were very serious. Mu Yuchen didn't know what she had experienced during the time she was looking for the Demon Breaking Arrow, but he understood that Feng relied on his incomparable faith to support her return to Zuo Majie.

"Lucky guy!" Mu Yuchen muttered to himself. With an inexplicable tone, I don't know if Lu Dao is talking about Zuo Masuke or talking about Kaede in a coma.

After careful examination, Mu Yuchen found seven obvious bone cracks, twelve subtle bone cracks on Feng's body, and at least more than forty bruises from other soft tissue contusions to the epidermis. It's really hard for her, and she accompanied Zuo Majie here with the strength of the bronze lower position at most.

At first, it was just an inferior phantom demon that was slightly stronger than ordinary people, and in the later stage, those intermediate phantom demons who were completely called bronze level in terms of certain attributes made Feng suffer a lot. Although the weakness of inferior and medium illusion demons is very obvious, it is also for people like Mu Yuchen who have the ability to completely restrain the magic attribute power of illusion magic. Besides, Mu Yuchen's ability type is a relatively all-round warrior, while Kaede is an assassination-type professional ninja.

Mu Yuchen slowly repaired those injuries that were relatively easy to handle, and then began to slowly repair those bone cracks and muscle fractures and strains. He examined it very carefully, trying his best to help Kaede adjust his body. Some obvious old injuries were also treated and recovered, and Mu Yuchen wiped his forehead, which were sweat droplets from excessive mental concentration.

Looking at the maple that had recovered, Mu Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief. Then he took out the remaining bottle of healing potion from the last one, which could help Kaede recover his overdrawn strength.

"Anyway, this mission is over. The main force of the illusion was also attracted by Zuo Masuke. Mu Yuchen thought so.

Suddenly, a powerful energy shock wave came from a distance. The power of Nari was constantly influencing the surrounding environment, and the inner castle of Inabayama Castle was shaking. And the complicated aura fluctuations Mu Yuchen was very familiar with, one of them was the bishop of the ghost warrior, Zuo Majie, and the other was the magic knife that had almost split Mu Yuchen's body.

The intense energy intensified, and the force of the collision caused the entire inner city of Inabayama Castle to shake significantly, and the strong vibration soon spread to the exterior of the city. It was so strong that the vibrations gradually spread wave after wave, and they rang out one after another. Mu Yuchen calmed down, silently fighting against the invisible pressure in the air. Kaede was still in a coma, so naturally he didn't notice it.

The shaking continued for a while before finally stopping. The energy fluctuations of the constant collision gradually subsided, and it seemed that the battle was over. In the last energy fluctuation, only one person's strength remained in that breath.

Zuo Masuke finally defeated the resurrected magic sword, and at that moment, his strength and brilliance increased rapidly. Mu Yuchen could no longer capture the slightest information about him, as if he no longer existed in this worldly realm.

Kaede had already woken up in the shaking, and the first thing she said was, "What about Zuo Masuke?" ”

Mu Yuchen looked at her with a smile on his face and said, "He went alone, you know what to do!" Isn't it! ”

Feng's whole person seemed to be stunned, his expression was lost, and he didn't know what Lu Dao remembered. However, the memories that Mu Yuchen saw in her eyes. It was a sweet entanglement, but also a silent tenderness. Feng suddenly smiled at Mu Yuchen and said, "Yes! I know him! ”

"I'm a little jealous of that guy from Wise Zuo Masuke." Mu Yuchen suddenly spoke, and Feng's little face turned red all of a sudden.

"We have to get out of here," Mu Yuchen silently felt the surroundings, "The magic power in the building is fading, and the decisive battle is not far away." I couldn't feel Zuo Masuke's strength level anymore, and I couldn't even touch the power of the Phantom Demon King. It's about to turn into a battlefield, and we have to leave. Mu Yuchen looked at Feng seriously, a little worried that she was unwilling to leave.

Unexpectedly, the girl just hesitated, and then nodded obediently. Then, with the same explanation, he said, "I'm sure he'll come back, I'm going to wait for him to come back." A kind of firmness shone in the girl's eyes, and Mu Yuchen was really jealous.

In his free time, Mu Yuchen began to read the information he had obtained from the Ghost Clan, where he began to understand the whole story.

The ghost clan lives in the demon world like the phantom demons, and they are not good people. The Oni Race's racial ability is Devour, which drains the souls of the lives they kill and boosts their strength. With the help of such an ability, the ghost clan became stronger and stronger and became one of the overlords of the demon world.

However, the appearance of the Phantom Demon Clan has made the Demon Clan's domination of the Demon World come to naught. The power of the illusions is mutated, and special magic application methods are added. The Phantom Demon Clan is constantly transforming other Demon Race into their own clansmen, and many of these clans have evolved into high-level Phantom Demons.

In the end, the Oni clan was defeated, and the few remaining Oni clansmen gathered the spirits of the dead clansmen. He also invented the technique of combining ghost power and spiritual objects to make weapons. The last of them all, the strongest of them is armed with the strongest weapon to assassinate the Phantom King.

Needless to say, the ghost clan ultimately failed. The people were few and far between, so they lurked again in search of opportunities. For thousands of years, they invented the Demon Cage Hand to allow humans who are not Oni to use their ghost powers. Unfortunately, they are also close to extinction.

Thus, there was also the beginning of choosing Zuo Majie as the inheritor. Mu Yuchen's unexpected intervention allowed him to get a little bit of the origin of ghost power. It's just that this faint amount of origin power is too small, and at the beginning, it can only obtain the power to maintain its own existence by infiltrating other energies. As Mu Yuchen continued to hunt and kill the illusion demons with powerful souls, the ghost power gradually became stronger. The origin of the ghost power gradually combined with Mu Yuchen's body, and continued to grow himself.

However, this growth is temporary, and in the absence of root support, the ghost power will not be able to reside in the human body for a long time. As a result, the ghost power like rootless duckweed has no foundation to continue to grow at all, and after losing the continuous replenishment of soul power, the origin of ghost power will gradually dissolve, until Mu Yuchen completely loses this power.

At the same time, there is another problem mentioned in the Secret Records of the Ghost Clan, the origin of the ghost power is still controlled by its original owner. Without understanding the composition of the ghost power, those who have the origin of the ghost power can only use it in the way that is pre-set in it, and cannot fully bring the source of the ghost power into their control. In fact, parasites are also affected by ghostly powers. ,

Mu Yuchen's previous two out-of-control situations were carried out under the guidance of the ghost clan, and the ghost clan regarded Mu Yuchen as a chess piece from the moment he gave the origin of the ghost.

According to the account in the secret record, Mu Yuchen eliminated the remaining spiritual power in it. After gaining complete control, Mu Yuchen completely condensed the parasitic ghost power in his true qi to the center of his eyebrows. Between getting a solution, Mu Yuchen decided to use as little ghost power as possible.

There was silence in the inner city, and the illusions of the brigade had long been cleared out, and they could be easily solved with just telekinesis. The only good news was that the secret record mentioned the trick of actively absorbing soul jade, and Mu Yuchen no longer had to use his mental power tentacles to capture it. It's not very useful, but it's better than nothing!

The two soon returned to the outer city, which was deserted. "Boom" A huge explosion sounded in the direction behind the two of them, and the two looked back. I saw that the top floor of the castle in the inner castle of Inabayama Castle had disappeared, and a huge monster appeared there.

Mu Yuchen fully turned on all the visual enhancement abilities that he could bless, and all other super-perceptual abilities had lost their effect in the surging energy storm.

The combination of a bull's head, a bat wing, and a snake's body, this is the huge monster Mu Yuchen saw. There is almost no need to guess, Mu Yuchen knows that it is the overlord of the demon world, the Phantom Demon King. A small figure stood in front of the Phantom Demon King, an indescribable magic sword in his hand. That figure is Zuo Majie.

The invisible pressure even Mu Yuchen could feel, it was a kind of horror that only needed one breath of force to tear Mu Yuchen apart. Mu Yuchen immediately took the side and was completely stunned, Feng released a furious tomahawk and began to run at full speed like a duck.

The tsunami-like force roared behind Mu Yuchen, and the two of them were like a small boat escaping in the angry sea. There is no other option but to run farther. A dazzling pillar of light rose from the top of the castle, and the gloomy sky was completely illuminated. The two of them, who had already run nearly twenty kilometers, stopped, and this place should not be affected.

Mu Yuchen looked at the top of the castle again, where there was already only one figure standing proudly. At this moment, the Phantom Demon King actually jumped out of the ruins. Juju firmly grasped the left Masuke on the side and clenched it hard. I saw that the ghosts and gods on Zuo Majie's body only exploded under the huge force, and Zuo Masuke, who was constantly struggling, suddenly quieted down.

Mu Yuchen's heart fell silent all of a sudden, Zuo Majie died?

At this moment, an incomparably dazzling light appeared on the hand that was holding Zuo Masuke's body. The palm of the phantom exploded directly, and a silver-haired and purple-blue figure floated in the air, and a huge pressure came from a distance. Mu Yuchen was directly pressed to the ground, no matter how he resisted, it was useless. "Oni Warrior!" A word filled Mu Yuchen's thoughts.

Then, a burst of energy nearly a hundred times stronger than the explosion just now exploded again. The huge flash of light instantly deprived Mu Yuchen of his vision, and then a loud rumbling sound drowned out his hearing.

After a long time, the ashes in the center of Inabayama Castle gradually subsided. Mu Yuchen and Kaede were standing on a ruin, and Princess Yukihime and Yumemaru were also here. Several people searched for a long time, but they didn't see Zuo Majie.

After searching for a long time, I still couldn't find any trace of Zuo Majie. Yukihime gathered the surviving samurai in the city and began to maintain law and order in Inabayama Castle. Kaede didn't want to give up and wanted to look for a while longer. Mu Yuchen received the most important reminder of returning, so he emptied all the stored food and left it for those who needed it. After that, he left alone.
