Chapter 9: Advent

Sou!

Just when the atmosphere was stiff, a black shadow flew over everyone's heads, Yakumo Purple and Shiki Yinghime were both stunned, looking at the Yi who flew out in an extremely unnatural posture, they fell into a short stunned state.

It wasn't until they saw Reimu following them that they seemed to understand which one of each other's games they were playing.

Perhaps even Yi Zhi himself could not have imagined that Reimu would break through the encirclement in such a simple and violent way.

Throw it out.

In this way, Yi Zhe was treated as a burden, and he was thrown directly at the group of resentful spirits, and for a moment he began to wonder if he had been too hasty in setting his bet on the shrine maiden.

But fortunately, Reimu wasn't too much, and she herself jumped into the encirclement of the resentful spirits and caught the whereabouts of the changer.

"I'll stop these guys, and you'll be ready to summon."

After leaving this sentence, Reimu opened a double barrage enchantment, according to her understanding of these resentful spirits, although there was no way to eliminate them, it was more than enough to repel the other party and buy time for the changer.

In the distance, Yakumo Purple saw Reimu joining forces with Yi Zhe, and finally couldn't even maintain the smile on his face.

She didn't know what the man was calculating, but judging from the current situation, it would not be as simple as disgusting them, what did he want to do with all his efforts to win over Reimu......

It's a pity that she has a thousand thoughts in her heart, but because of a moment of negligence, she can't do anything when she is stared at by the four seasons, and the other side restricts the use of the gap, and now she really has a kind of helplessness about poor donkey skills.

Yi Zhi, who was finally able to put his mind at ease and prepare for the final step, was surprisingly calm, and he took out the notepad he had with him, and tore out a page from it with the formation drawn.

He held the formation in his hand, and the rising flames burned the pages to ashes, and sprinkled them on the ground with the light of the stars.

However, the moment the one-foot radius magic circle touched the ground, it suddenly frantically absorbed a large amount of spiritual power from the leylines, and the size of the magic circle also suddenly skyrocketed to the point that it could encompass all the resentful spirits.

At this point, the madness on Yi's face could no longer be hidden.

The resentful spirits encompassed by the summoned circle all stopped moving, and countless scarlet eyes fixed on the center of the circle, and the silent fear was rapidly spreading.

Looking at those bare-eyed people, there was a strange feeling that the soul was being tormented on the fire, Reimu trembled, retreated to the side of the Yi person, and said in a questioning tone: "Hey, isn't this a bit too much?" ”

"No, how could it be, isn't this level expected?"

The pupils of the Yi Scholar seemed to have lost focus, leaving only two whirlpools that were constantly falling in the abyss, and he looked at Reimmu with such eyes and said, "All that is needed for the summoning technique is the location and medium, and as for the rest, it is not something that can be controlled by a mere summoner." ”

"What ...... you say?" It wasn't until this moment that Reimu finally felt a little bad.

As Yi said, summoning is an extremely simple spell, which follows the most basic equivalent exchange, and what kind of existence can be summoned, which is determined according to the needs of the summoner himself, as well as the strength of the summoned thing.

Under normal circumstances, a weak summoner will only summon a weak being, but if it is attached to a powerful medium, it is not without special possibilities, but that medium must be suitable.

It is well known that the larger the formation, the more powerful the summoned being becomes.

Reimu admits that perhaps in a place that she can't see, Takeya has grown to the point where it is difficult to match, but it is precisely because of this that she finds it difficult to understand, can such Takeya, with this mere resentful spirit as a medium, really be summoned?

The impatience and the purging of the Yi person blinded Reimu's judgment, and now that he looks back, it seems that everything was too ...... I was a little anxious, not so much the reimu hope summoning, but the fact that everything was going on under the guidance of the Yi One.

"Are you really planning to use the wraiths as a medium?" Reimu clenched the Imperial Coin, and his words revealed a different meaning.

"How could it be, just a resentful spirit, as a sacrifice to that adult, doesn't it seem too shabby?" Yi Zhi told the truth without any scruples, and he no longer had any worries at this moment.

Reimu's eyes widened, she had been deceived.

But the summoned magic circle has obviously been activated, if it is not with resentful spirits, then, what is Yi going to use to summon Wu Ye.

"I must thank you, Miss Shrine Maiden," the corners of Yi Zhi's mouth cracked open to a degree that is difficult for humans to achieve, like a demon, and it was very distorted, "It was you who let me know of the existence of this adult, and it was you who allowed me to prove the existence of this adult." ”

"You guy, did you ...... from the beginning" Reimu gritted his teeth, feeling very uncomfortable being taken advantage of, especially when it also involved Takeya.

"These spirits are not new to today, I discovered them a week ago at the geyser next to Hakurei Shrine."

Now that it has been exposed, Yi Zhi no longer hides it, and calmly tells everything slowly: "Although even the powerful monster adults have nothing to do with those resentful spirits, I didn't expect that those crippled yin and yang techniques could actually deal with them. ”

There was an indescribable smug in Yi Zhi's tone, and he continued, "So after learning the Yin-Yang Technique, I can easily capture one of them, and then, I heard the rumors of Miss Shrine Maiden, you. ”

"Mine?" Reimu's eyes sank slightly, and she seemed to understand a little.

"Yes, it's about you looking for a human who no one remembers," Yi said lightly: "That day, it wasn't that you who met me, but I was waiting for you, and everything was just a bet on me, but I won the bet, and the stories I heard from your mouth combined with these strange resentful spirits...... It is because of these reasons that I planned everything for today. ”

Lingmeng stared at Yi Zhe coldly and said, "That resentful spirit was summoned by you." ”

"That's right, in order to make the final confirmation, I must let you see that resentful spirit with your own eyes," Yi nodded and admitted, "In front of all the big people, weak as I will not be noticed...... Even so, the monster sage is still so wise, although she didn't guess my plan, she decided that I was suspicious, if it weren't for you, Miss Shrine Maiden, I would have died at this moment. ”

"Ah, I regret it."

"I know I'm sorry to have deceived you, but please believe that my desire to fulfill your wish is not false, and I will summon the adult."

"Hmph," Reimu sneered and pointed the imperial coin at the changer, "Since you have reached this level, you should know that I will not let you go, and besides, I don't think you can successfully summon Wu Ya." ”

"Indeed, it is absolutely impossible to summon that adult if you rely only on a few resentful spirits, so I have prepared a better medium."

Yi turned his gaze to the Santu River behind him, and said lightly: "This river is the boundary between life and death, and only here can the place and medium I need gather." ”

"Here?" Reimu's gaze slowly shifted from the land beneath his feet to the other side of the Santu River, Gensokyo.

An unbelievable panic welled up in his heart, and Reimu said in a slightly trembling voice, "You guy, you ....... it"

"If you're as smart as you, you've probably guessed it."

Yi Zhi opened his arms to Gensokyo on the other side of the Santu River, and said in an exclamatory tone: "In your story, that adult is inextricably linked to everything in Gensokyo, so is there a more suitable medium than this land?" ”

Although the other side and Hell have their own rules and laws, they are essentially within the scope of the Hakurei Great Barrier, that is, within the scope of Gensokyo.

In other words, it is also a part of Gensokyo, at least in terms of geographical concept.

This side of the Santu River is the other side of the Summoning Place, and on the other side is Gensokyo as a medium, and this river is the best place to launch the Summoning Circle.

As an existence that once formed an incomparably deep fate with the land of Gensokyo, Takeya Takasaka himself has an indelible connection with Gensokyo.

Even if those traces have been erased, the bonds that have been forged will not be gone.

However, all the power of the land of Gensokyo is used to supply the Hakurei Great Enchantment, which means that if Gensokyo is used as a medium, then it will naturally be consumed as a price......

"You madman!"

Knowing everything, Reimu did not hesitate to list the change as a target that needed to be retreated: "Stop it now, otherwise-"

"Do you want to get rid of me?" Unmoved by Reimeng's threat, Yi asked rhetorically, "Isn't what I did you think?" Isn't it exactly what you want to summon that adult back into this world? ”

"Ah, you're right, but, until thenβ€”" Reimu replied without hesitation, "I'm a shrine maiden of Hakurei. ”

But as soon as the words fell, Reimu suddenly realized that in just a few minutes, there was not much spiritual power left in his body.

She looked up and saw Yi Zhi's smile full of conspiracy: "If Gensokyo can be summoned as a medium, then it means that the power required for that adult's arrival is enough to exhaust the spiritual power of the entire Great Enchantment." ”

The power of the Shrine Maiden comes from the supply of the Great Barrier of Hirori, and if the Great Barrier bears the brunt of the damage, the power of the Shrine Maiden will be greatly weakened.

But even so, if you want to kill the Yi Person, it's still not a problem, it's just-

"I'm sorry, Miko Miss, the time has come."

Boomβ€”β€”β€”β€”!!!

Huge pillars of colorful light rose from the ground, piercing the sky and the earth, and the waves of qi that were stirred up were rendered by blood-colored light, and the spreading fluctuations wiped out all the resentful spirits in an instant.

The summoning circle that had begun to shatter from the edge turned into specules of light, and began to converge in a swirl towards the pillar of light in the center of the circle, and the dazzling light made it impossible for anyone present to look at it directly.

When the light dissipated, a figure appeared in the center of the circle, his stature was not tall, but the incomparable coercion on his body made everyone unable to think of confrontation.

As long as he stands there, as if he can disintegrate all the concepts of the world from the depths of the soul, he is the only existence between heaven and earth, he is the world.

Reimu looked at the young man who had been summoned in a daze, and couldn't help but call his name.

"Takeya ......"

On the other side, desire filled the abyss of Yi Zhi's eyes, and in the face of Wu Ye, who was enough to crush everything with his sense of presence alone, he could hardly help but bow down: "How powerful...... Ah, you are exactly what I seek, the power above the human race, the power above the rules, please give me the power to escape from this poor body and rule the abyss......"

Shout.

A flash of red light interrupted Yi Zhi's self-absorption, and he still maintained a frenzy of worship on his face, but his body became shaky, and he fell straight to the ground in the next second.

The hollow in the chest was filled with only a heart that had stopped beating after being pierced.

"You summoned me back to this world for such a boring reason......"

Looking indifferently at the silent Yi Zhi, Wu Ye lowered his gaze and said lightly: "I did hear your wishes, but the villagers in the human world actually want to give up their human identities to survive as monsters, which is a big crime that is not allowed, so let me go to hell and study hard." ”
