Chapter 229: Qianhui City, the Palace Master of the Izae Palace

[Onmyoji is on par with you, and while he is in a hurry, he communicates with you about the magic......]

[It is very envious of your girl-style god with wings on his back, such a powerful god-style god is not comparable to ordinary demons and monsters.] 】

[You took the opportunity to ask about the Onmyoji's subduing gods......]

[It turns out that there are two kinds of Shikijin driven by the Onmyoji, one is the 'evil ghost', and the other is the youkai who is the 'evil remnant'. 】

[It is not as easy as you imagined to subdue and drive the two types of gods......]

[The birth conditions of 'evil ghosts' are harsh, so the number of people in the world is extremely rare. The longer an evil spirit survives and does evil, the stronger it becomes. 】

[It is difficult for ordinary onmyoji to encounter evil ghosts, and even if they do, they are the kind of powerful evil ghosts that have existed for thousands of years, and they can't be defeated at all, let alone help them fulfill their wishes in life and accept them as Shikami. 】

[Some onmyoji have evil thoughts from this, artificially creating 'evil ghosts', cruel methods, and exterminating human nature, but the newborn 'evil ghosts' are often weak and ineffective, that is, some opposition onmyoji will use such methods. 】

[In contrast, it is relatively easy to subdue youkai.] 】

[As long as you defeat it, you can use the 'town thing' that matches its strength to suppress and subdue it, but good town things are rare, and this method also has flaws.] 】

[Monsters are all remnants of evil demons who believe in evil gods, and naturally they don't want to be human gods honestly. After subduing, the sanity must be erased before it can be used. 】

[A monster without sanity is like a marionette, it is all controlled by the onmyoji, and the strength it exerts in battle is greatly weakened, and it can exert half of the strength of its true body, which is already considered the manipulation technique of the onmyoji......]

"It seems that it is a bit unrealistic to want to be the kind of summoner who can summon an army of monsters with a wave of his hand......"

While hurrying, he exchanged spells with the Onmyoji, and time flew by.

From its mouth, Lin Xun also understood the professional characteristics of the Onmyoji.

Compared with traditional mages, Onmyoji has limited means of output and lacks too powerful damage skills.

Onmyoji mainly fights with the attack method of summoning gods, and the defensive means of releasing enchantments, supplemented by various buffs and bonuses of talismans.

"Whether it's Shikigami, or enchantment, or buff talismans, I'm quite interested, just go to Izo Palace to grab a high-level onmyoji body, and try the power of the new class."

Lin Xun took the time to open the inventory and check the loot dropped by the boss.

The challenge of the Asura boss is extremely difficult, and the items that burst out are not ordinary.

The first is a special spirituality that I haven't seen in a long time.

['Asura's Special Spirituality' (Special Spirituality Item): Use this item to gain 300,000 Spirituality.] This spirit can also be added when forging body equipment (including enhancement, enchantment, etc.), and there is a certain probability that the awakening effect will appear, generating related additional attributes. 】

There is also a 'Child of the Stars' Special Spirituality in the inventory, but the quality of that special spirit is too high, and the awakening probability for ordinary weapons is too low.

It is estimated that you have to use the materials dropped by the Children of the Stars to create equipment to perfectly match the special spirituality.

Go back to the library and see the compatibility rate of the existing equipment with the 'Asura Special Spirituality', if the probability of awakening is high, use it directly, if the probability is not high...... It just so happened that Asura also broke out a piece of material.

['Asura's Prayer Beads' (material): A string of prayer beads hanging around the neck of an asura, which is an item used in prayer, chanting, mantra or devotion, and the material of this rosary is of extremely high quality and valuable. 】

Asura also burst out a 'complete forging crystal' that can strengthen the legendary equipment, but unfortunately Lin Xun has not found a high-quality blacksmith shell so far......

The remaining two loot are the main event.

['Extremely Evil Core' (Special Item): Most of the 'Evil Thoughts' from an unknown and powerful god have been consumed, but they have not completely dissipated, and the remaining trace of evil thoughts has turned into this pitch-black Fruit Core. The core of the fruit is full of black gas, and you can feel endless evil thoughts when you look at it directly. 】

[Using this item, you will be able to drive away the evil thoughts remaining in the core of the fruit, temporarily fuse your summoned creatures or special summoned creatures, and make them exert their respective characteristics, showing extremely powerful combat power!] 】

[This item is a consumable item that can fuse up to three minions when used.] 】

"Huh? Isn't the Asura formed by the fusion of the palace priest of the Ishiyama Society and the god master? ”

Thinking about Asura's strength being so perverted, even if there are not many evil thoughts left in the 'Extreme Evil Fruit Core', as long as you can fuse several powerful summoning beasts, it is equivalent to summoning a powerful boss to fight for yourself.

He began to study the rules for the use of props.

After some testing, it was discovered that the summoned beast needed to be summoned in order to use this item.

And I don't know if it's because the Valkyrie is made of fine copper, so this prop can't be used on the Valkyrie.

In other words, unless he can summon both summons except Valkyrie at the same time, this powerful item is a scrap.

"It seems that we must take the body of the onmyoji and get more Shikishen ......"

The last loot remains, and it's an extremely precious legendary item.

['Illusion Sumeru Mustard Seed' (Legendary Item): A tiny mustard seed, which is the dried and ripe seed of white mustard.] Tiny mustard seeds are contaminated with the power of inexplicable gods, so that this seed can be transformed into the legendary majestic mountain 'Sumeru'. 】

[This item has two effects.] 】

[First, carrying this item allows you to transform the weapon used in the shell into the appropriate size of the shell according to the size of the body.] 】

[Second, adding this item to the forging process will have a certain chance to improve the quality of the weapon, up to the legendary level.] 】

"Shhh...... This prop is awesome. ”

While the props can change the size of their weapons on their own, the Earth Giants and Draconians are limited by the enormity brought by their transformations, so they can only customize their own weapons.

With this item, the standard weapons that you usually get in the game can also be used in the transformed state.

Not to mention far away, let's just say that the newly acquired epic+-level weapon 'Taidao Utsuki Ghost Cut', which can be used by the Earth Giant in normal times.

But when it gets bigger, this sharp weapon becomes a tiny toothpick......

The first effect can also be applied to other apostles, but transformation skills are extremely rare and precious.

Lin Xun has seen all kinds of bad street output and defense skill books in the library, and he has never seen transformation skill books so far.

Not to mention that this legendary item can also be forged to improve the quality of weapons.

The only limitation may be that both of the item's effects only work on weapons, not armor.

Time passed unconsciously, and the group rode slowly until the evening to arrive at Lingcheng 'Qianhui'.

[The city in front of me is much more prosperous than 'Ukioka', with tall walls and many samurai guarding the gates and walls. 】

[People coming and going in and out of the city were bustling and lined up, and people needed to pay money and spirituality when entering the city, and the entry tax paid was different according to the amount of goods they carried. 】

['The superior onmyoji who worships the fire' rode your horse and led you forward, and came to the forefront of the team in the envious eyes of the people. 】

[The low-level warriors at the gate of the city bowed their heads and saluted, if in normal times, your strange appearance with many eyes will definitely attract interrogation and trouble, if you don't pay enough spirituality, maybe your appearance will be regarded as a 'remnant of demons'......]

[However, there is an onmyoji who represents the forces of the 'Izo Palace' leading the way, and the samurai who defend the city dare not say much, and even deliberately write down your appearance, so as not to recognize you as a distinguished guest of the 'Izo Palace' in the future, and cause unnecessary trouble. 】

[The 'Fire Worshipping Superior Onmyoji' will take you into the 'Thousand Hui City' and introduce you to the specific situation of this strange city......]

[There are many interesting places in the castle, such as the only temple in Sakuraku, the Hoshoji Temple, and the five-storied pagoda, which was once dedicated to the evil god. 】

[After the divine power of the 'Canggu Tianyan' spread to the world, thousands of temples were torn down, and a shrine dedicated to the true god was built at the old site. 】

[And the only preserved 'Hoshoji Temple' and 'Five-Storied Pagoda' have a unique effect, and it will be known by foreign mages at a glance.] 】

[The rest of the castle is the main shrine 'Muchi Shrine' in the castle, and the 'Castle Tower' where the local daimyo live......]

[When you suddenly hear the news of the 'Muzhi Shrine', your heart moves. 】

[The long-sought 'Wuzhi Shrine' turned out to be in the 'Thousand Hui City'! 】

[You asked the 'Fire Worshipping Onmyoji' about the news of the 'Muzhi Shrine', claiming to have come to a foreign land, and it has been a long time since you prayed in front of the statue of the 'Canggu Tianyan'......]

[Onmyoji laughed and explained to you that although the 'Muzhi Shrine' is full of incense, it is still one step away from becoming a Taisha, and it is estimated that it will have to wait until next year and the year after next to be qualified to publicly worship the idol of the 'Canggu Tianyan'......]

[Exotic mages don't need to worry, the shrine can't openly worship the statue of the true god on the surface, but the matter of secretly worshipping the small god in private has been repeatedly prohibited, and I will tell you secretly that even the 'Izo Palace' has the idol of 'Canggu Tianyan'. 】

[It's just that because the general follows the ancient system of worshipping the gods, the act of worshipping incense can only be done privately......]

[When you heard this, you couldn't help frowning and asking, why is the worship and prayer in the cherry blossom area so tightly divided, so that the divine grace of the 'Canggu Tianyan' can spread to the world without discrimination, wouldn't it be better?] 】

['The superior onmyoji who worships fire' shook his head, claiming that in ancient times, it was indeed as the foreign mage said, offering shrines regardless of the shrine class, and there were shrines and small statues of gods placed in the houses from house to house. 】

[Later, somehow, there was a saying that it was a felony to worship a god statue privately at home, and if you want to worship 'Canggu Tianyan', you have to go to the main shrine or the shrine......]

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes.

It is reminiscent of the true appearance of the idol of 'Tenho Saki Rice'.

I couldn't help but have a chill down my spine in my heart, maybe the true statue of the 'Canggu Tianyan' was also like 'Tiansui Saki Rice', so it was not allowed to be worshiped by the world......

[The 'high-ranking onmyoji who worships the fire' saw that you still remembered the 'Wuzhi Shrine', so he readily told you the specific location of the 'Wuzhi Shrine'......]

[You have learned the exact location of the 'Muchi Shrine!] 】

[It patted its chest and assured, since you are interested in the 'Muzhi Shrine', you will go to the 'Izo Palace' for an in-depth exchange.] It will be your tour guide and will take you to the city for a tour, and all the expenses for food, clothing, housing and transportation will be borne by the 'Izogu Palace'......]

【……】

【Walking through the bustling streets, you come to a small Miyagi. 】

[There are many samurai guards outside the palace, and the people who come and go bow their heads and walk in a hurry, not daring to look at the magnificent building. 】

[The 'Fire Worshipping Superior Onmyoji' raised his chin and proudly introduced to you that this is the true owner of the 'Thousand Hui City', that is, the 'Izo Palace' to which it belongs. 】

[After passing through the heavy guards, you enter the palace and see that there are many gorgeous palaces of different sizes in the 'Izo Palace', and the people who come and go are all onmyoji wearing hunting clothes and black hats. 】

[You look closely at these onmyoji, and you find that they also have class divisions, and according to the different styles of hunting clothes, it marks the status of the onmyoji. 】

[The onmyoji who came and went were a little surprised to see your multi-eyed appearance, but their identity didn't seem to be high, and they looked away after a hurried glance at you......]

[The 'Fire Worshipping Superior Onmyoji' dismounts and leads you on, through layers of buildings, through several checkpoint guards, and finally to the deepest part of Miyagi. 】

[The palace in front of me is tall and magnificent, and the whole palace is protected by a golden arched enchantment. 】

[The outer wall of this golden enchantment is flickering with tadpole-like spells, which is exactly what you are familiar with as the 'Boundless Realm of Guarding the Ten Directions'. 】

[The line of sight passes through the golden enchantment, and there are two giant statues of gods guarding the left and right at the entrance of the palace. 】

[The statue on the left is a 'demon'-style god with a green face and fangs, and a terrifying body, and on the right, a 'monster'-style god with black wings on its back and resembling a giant dog.] 】

['The superior Onmyoji who worships the fire' asks the Onmyoji stationed outside the barrier for instructions, and explains your identity and intentions, in order to meet the deputy palace master......]

[The stationed Onmyoji entered the enchantment and entered the palace to report the ......]

[You can't help but wonder a little, why didn't you see the palace master with the highest status in the 'Iza Palace', but the deputy palace master? ] 】

[The Onmyoji saw your doubts and explained, the palace master is old, and he has not asked about affairs for many years, and now the power in the palace is the deputy palace master......]

[The person who went to report the matter has not returned for a long time, and the onmyoji is worried that you will be impatient to wait, so he takes the initiative to introduce you to ......]

[The two statues of gods at the entrance of the main palace of the 'Izo Palace' in front of me have a great background, the demon god on the left is called 'Rakshasa', and the monster-style god on the right is called 'Utengu'. 】

[Both are very powerful Shikigami and are unique to Izonomiya.] 】

[If the deputy palace master takes a fancy to a certain talented onmyoji, he will give one of the two types of gods for him to serve. 】

[This time, it went to 'Ukioka City' because the bloodline descendants of the deputy palace master were slaughtered by the 'remnants of demons'. 】

[If it can catch the youkai that deserves to die, it will be rewarded with the 'Black Tengu'-style god.] 】

[The deputy palace master put a curse mark on the 'remnant of the demon', thinking that he would be able to capture the monster and return it to the Izo Palace. 】

[However, when it led a group of onmyoji to arrive at the 'Otaki Mansion', the token used to show the location of the mark was not prompted......]

[However, it is believed that it is also a great achievement to meet a mage from a foreign country and exchange and learn from each other's spells, and the deputy palace master will definitely not be stingy with rewards. 】

['The superior onmyoji who worships the fire' vaguely reminds you that after meeting the deputy palace master, don't hide the spell privately, and the open and honest communication will definitely be very profitable......]

[You are very puzzled when you hear this, and ask it to wonder, since the 'Otaki family' in Ukioka City is the family of the deputy palace master, why can you let a small monster do evil? 】

[The Onmyoji sighed, if it was a weekday, the little monster would not dare to be so presumptuous, but these days, the Ijo Palace is holding a 'Shikshin Festival', and all the powerful Onmyoji who are guarding the 'Otaki family' have returned to the palace to participate in the festival, which has given this little monster a chance......]

[You were about to ask what the 'Shikshin Puja' was, but when you saw that the person who gave the report had returned, you and the Onmyoji were handed a token engraved with charms, and motioned for the deputy palace master to summon ......]

[You have obtained the 'Peerless Token' (Key)!] 】

"This deputy palace master should be the great-grandmother of 'Otaki Taro', that is, the one who placed the curse on me."

"I don't know if the body of the deputy palace master is strong enough......"

[You and the Onmyoji hold the token, pass through the 'Boundless Realm of the Ten Directions', and step side by side into the magnificent palace......]
