A samurai who doesn't want to be a daimyo is not a good onmyoji

Chapter 229 Illusory Demon Realm
Coming out of the underground secret passage, everyone found that the entire castle tower was strangely quiet. They didn't hear any sound. Neither humans nor monsters seemed to exist here.

At the same time, the golden-green light reflected on the ground, walls and even the ceiling seemed to be telling them all that extremely important changes had already occurred outside.

Moving quickly, Asai Nagamasa and others rushed directly to the highest point of the castle tower.

There were corpses everywhere along the way, not only belonging to the humans who originally lived here, but also a large number of demons and ghosts that had obviously been transformed by Yilong using evil spells, and even some rat ninjas.

However, under the influence of some inexplicable force, regardless of their strength, they all died here without any suspense, without even a trace of struggle, and there were almost no wounds.

And more importantly, Asai Nagamasa noticed that the bodies of all the deceased had shrunk by about [-]% out of thin air, and their faces were all extremely pale.

After he casually cut off the head of a ratman ninja, everyone found that although the traces on the wound showed that the other party should have just died, there was no blood splashing out, as if there was no blood in its body all along. Like any blood exists.

Several people behind her were slightly startled. Wu Ming moved the fastest. She directly cut off a warrior's wrist with a sickle, and then found that there was no blood in it either.

She was even more surprised immediately, and finally understood the general cause of death of these people and monsters: "Your Highness, is this some kind of evil spell?"

Asai Nagamasa sighed, and pushed open the wooden door that was also the top floor of the castle tower: "Yes, besides this, what else can explain it?"

As soon as the door was opened, there was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground on both sides, and two huge ape ghosts fell straight to the ground.

Asai Nagamasa didn't even blink. Maybe Yilong used them as guards here before, but now they have turned into cold corpses.

Under such a huge spell, they are not much different from ordinary civilians. Perhaps because their bodies are relatively stronger, they will suffer more pain before death.

He didn't even pay attention to the dense spiritual stone fragments on the floor, walls, and ceiling. He looked over the fence and directly into the air hundreds of meters away.

There, a narrow crack thousands of meters long has been opened. It is like a ferocious giant eye, and many cold, cruel, bloodthirsty, cruel and other auras are constantly leaking out of it, but more of it is still decay and decay. and filth.

Just like the aura of Qiao Ji and Yanhu who fell into demons back then.

This couldn't help but make him have more associations. Could it be that the power of layman Guoxin was so powerful that it could affect the other side of the underworld?

But as soon as this idea arose, he was immediately rejected.

Although the number of contacts was not many, he had roughly figured out that although the opponent was strong, his mind and magnanimity were not that great. He would never have the courage to make such a big move, otherwise according to his character, He'd probably already announced his great achievements to the whole of Nepene.

And combined with the information obtained from the ghost girl Momiji, Asai Nagamasa already had a rough guess.

Guo Xin, the layman, is not actually the other party’s true body. His true body is probably an evil god or evil demon in Nibon myths and legends.

But now it seems that his true body has either been seriously injured or simply sealed. The reason why he wants to cause killing and bloodshed in Nibon is probably to collect them in order to regain all his power. Bar!
It's a pity that he probably doesn't know that everything he does may eventually become a wedding dress for the Evil God of Chaos!
These breaths can even be seen with the naked eye. As the purple-red energy continues to spread to the surroundings, the surrounding sky and earth are gradually becoming darker. Although it seems that the color is just a little darker, when looking directly at them At this time, a slightly weird and terrifying atmosphere rose unconsciously.

But now they are obviously still unstable, like shadows in the sun, flickering on and off, indicating that they are still completely unstable, more like an illusory demonic realm.

There are also some evil-looking little monsters, like swarms of ants, struggling to crawl out of the gap.

The body is small and dry, ugly like a monkey, but the only one with an extremely distended abdomen is a hungry ghost;
The bucket is thick and thin, several meters long, and the one without head and tail is an earth dragon;
The one who holds a kitchen knife and looks like an old woman with white hair is a mountain grandmother;

There are also green ghosts, red ghosts, evil ghosts, red tongues, umbrella demons, ghosts and many other monsters swarming out, just like a picture of hell.

Since most of them can't fly, once they emerge from the crack, they will fall directly from a height of tens of meters, making a series of dull impact sounds, followed by screams from the ground.

But despite this, most of them were missing arms and legs, and almost none of them were killed on the spot, showing that they were obviously stronger than ordinary people.

Takenaka Hanbei behind him noticed this detail immediately, and he couldn't help but feel nervous immediately.

From such a height, if he fell without any precautions without using any spells, he would probably be seriously injured. However, the screams of these little monsters were still full of energy. If they kept coming out of them, Then it invaded the entire Nibon.
Wu Ming behind him couldn't help but moaned: "Your Highness, is that the gate leading to Hirazan of Hell?"

They, Chu Ye Yizhong, have been dedicated to defeating the monsters that endanger Nibon for more than 1000 years. However, when their strength was at its weakest, they happened to suffer such a crisis. Could it be that their thousand-year achievements were about to be ruined? Once?
Asai Nagamasa also took a deep breath: "I also want to get the answer to this question."

He knew that layman Guoxin's previous threats were not false, but he never expected that the other party would be so generous.

No, it would be better to say that Yilong had prepared too much for him. Whether it was blood, life, or spiritual stones, Yilong had already gathered too much.

And in order to summon this illusory demon realm, at least thousands of innocent people in the city have died tragically, and they have become sacrifices for its evil spells, right?

The little kunoichi quickly glanced around a few times. She, who was always optimistic, could not help but look sad at this moment: "Lord Nagamasa, there seems to be no living person nearby. Let's go next."

Her guardian spirit, the Kindhearted Bailing, is weakly strengthened in terms of strength and physical strength, but is particularly objectively strengthened in terms of agility and speed. What is almost rarely known is that her eyesight is beyond what most people can imagine.

Now faced with this situation, her first reaction was to retreat temporarily. If Nagamasa really wanted to solve this matter, it would be best to bring thousands of troops, iron cannons and big guns, and then take care of it. they.

Although if they leave, many samurai and civilians in Inabayama Castle and even the Saito family will be harmed, but in comparison, she does not want to see people she is familiar with injured or dead.

Now hundreds of little monsters have appeared in sight, and there are a steady stream of new monsters appearing on the other side of the crack, and they are just a few people!

Axiu, Wuming and others also looked at him. In their hearts, of course they wanted to kill all the monsters in sight and then close the crack.

But when many kinds of monsters kept crawling out like ants, and there were more and more types of them, and their sizes also tended to gradually increase, and even little monsters with wings on their backs that could fly gradually began to appear, they I know my thoughts are too unrealistic.

There are only a few of them, but the other side seems to be endless!

Asai Nagamasa was silent for a while, he seemed to be thinking, but he was actually communicating frequently with the ghost girl Hongye.

When Master Guoxin called her a fool before, it seemed to have seriously irritated her, so now the ghost girl Hongye is quite mean to break the jar.

She told him everything she knew without hesitation. Even if he didn't ask about something, she would take the initiative to remind him. Her enthusiasm and initiative were more than one level higher than before.

After a few breaths, he shook his head slightly and rejected the little kunoichi's obscure proposal.

"Ning Ning, I can't just let it go, otherwise after absorbing enough blood and souls, that passage will probably exist forever. A certain corner of Huangquan Hirasaka will overlap with this place, and this place will be transformed into a real world. Demon Realm."

What he said was not a lie. In addition to the information he got from the ghost girl Hongye, it was also because he had looked through the crack in the air to the world further back, where there were not only these little monsters.

In addition to mid-level monsters such as demons, nuns, and great lords, there are also vaguely seen monsters with bull heads and horse faces, and even creatures wearing robes and holding chains, like black and white impermanence and many other underworld creatures from myths and legends.

It's a pity that their red eyes are now full of cruel desire to kill. It seems that they have completely degenerated into monsters, and are no longer the legendary Nether Gods who protect the underworld.

The only thing to be thankful for is that they seem to be subject to some kind of powerful restraint and cannot replace those little monsters and be the first to step into the mortal world.Or maybe the strength of the Guoxin layman is still not enough to allow more powerful ones to cross the border.

The ones who can get in now are basically the little monsters at the bottom of Huangquan, but if I keep letting them go, they will surely be able to pass through this "door" one day.

But I will not give them this opportunity.

"Besides, we are not completely helpless!"

With a move of his left hand, the Minotaur King Bohuang, several meters tall and holding a super-giant battle ax, had appeared. With another wave of his hand, a large figure was holding a halberd and wearing a golden armor. He looked very exaggerated, and his style was also similar to that of Nibon's warriors. Completely different warriors appeared in the open space outside the castle tower.

As his strength continues to improve, in addition to practicing new spells, he is also constantly improving his original strength. These extremely powerful-looking warriors are one of his recent achievements. They are actually just paper figures.

Although the paper man's biggest weakness, that is, his strength, has not been greatly improved, at least serving as cannon fodder to deal with the injured little monsters on the ground is not a big problem!
The Bull-headed Ghost Bohuang roared in the sky, with a loud rumble, and took the lead in charging towards the enemy in the distance. He looked particularly excited.

Then hundreds of golden paper soldiers also followed almost exactly the same steps, kept the same movements, and advanced silently.

Several girls just felt that it was very strange, but Takenaka Hanbei next to him was even more surprised. This unique style seemed to be very similar to what the teacher said before, the style of the Cathay Empire across the sea?
It seems that besides himself, His Highness also has some special experiences.

Could it be because of Qingming Gong's inheritance?It is said that Duke Qingming also went to the Cathay Empire and learned many skills related to magic in depth.

This kind of spell looks very good. If I can survive this battle, if I have a chance, I should ask His Highness for more advice.
But in the next moment, his eyes suddenly widened, and for the first time he showed an extremely obvious gaffe, because one of the animals was all silver-white, gorgeous, mighty and domineering, and would never appear in Nippon, accompanied by a flash of light. The platycodon seal has already appeared in everyone's sight.

It was a silver-white giant tiger with a shoulder height of two meters and a body length of more than seven meters!

Even though it had no wings, it was still suspended in mid-air a few meters away. Its bright yellow, copper-bell-like giant eyes stared straight at His Highness. There was nothing unruly or cruel in it, but instead, it was filled with solemnity and loyalty.

At the same time, Hanbei could also feel the vigorous and powerful power all over the opponent's body. Part of it was the same wind attribute as his own, but more of it was a feeling of gold and iron. It must be metallic?
This made him more and more certain that His Highness and even Qingming Gong's spells were closely related to Cathay, because only in Cathay could there be such obvious five elements as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth!
Asai Nagamasa laughed and jumped on the back of the white tiger: "The paper people need me to personally direct them, you can come back later!"

The White Tiger, the Supervisor of the Western Pole, was his greatest achievement during this period.

Combining the soul core of the monster obtained a long time ago, a large number of spiritual stones in Lushan City, and the murderous aura and evil spirit that had been condensed for a long time, this mighty and majestic beast was obtained.

After spending so much effort on his part, it did not live up to his expectations. In addition to being more powerful than the Bull-headed Ghost Bohuang, its biggest feature is that it can still continue to grow. It only needs the murderous aura and evil spirit in the military formation. .

In turn, it will also be beneficial to the army, because the white tiger can also be the god of war or the god of death!
As for being able to fly without wings and being extremely fast and flexible, that is no longer a particularly powerful force.

Sitting behind the white tiger, Asai Nagamasa waved his hand again and sprinkled large golden paper figures. After learning that Yilong could create and control monsters, as well as the various strange things about the Guoxin layman mentioned by the ghost girl Momiji, he felt that I was thinking vaguely.

The Guoxin layman is not for fame or fortune, nor for money nor for land. He seems to just want to plunge the entire Nibon into war, with more fighting, blood and death.

This really reminded him of the Blood God Khorne among the Four Gods of Chaos. Even if Guoxin was not a believer of the other party, he was probably being used by the other party.

Then he had to consider the almost endless demon army behind the Blood God, which could hardly be completely killed in the mortal world.

Although there was not much time and insufficient materials, he still made some backup plans.

But now it seems that things are much better than he expected.

Although layman Guoxin spoke arrogantly and was indeed very powerful, the door he opened was not leading to the realm of the Blood God, but more like leading to the underworld of Nibon!

The gap between the two is even greater than the difference between an ant and a dragon. Most of the 800 million gods in Nibon are just a few. How many strong ones can there be in the underworld?

Although if it is not handled properly, it will still be a catastrophe for mortal beings, but at least it is a blessing among misfortunes. What we should consider now is how to completely close this "door"!
With this thought in his mind, Asai Nagamasa waved his hand and summoned a thunderstorm like thunder. The monsters with the ability to fly in mid-air suddenly began to fall downwards in pieces, and the weak among them were turned into coke or even fragments on the spot. Bursts of burnt breath spread out.

On the ground, a large amount of soil condensed into thick stone spears, which completely pierced the bodies of the little monsters, like candied haws in winter.

In several places, the earth suddenly opened its huge mouth and swallowed dozens of monsters. At first, the swallowed monsters screamed, but soon after only three or two breaths, all the sounds disappeared, except for There were large streams of blood flowing out, which seemed to indicate their final fate.

As if stimulated by this scene, the Bull-headed Demon Bohuang also let out a thunderous roar, and the long-handled axe, which was specially built for it and weighed hundreds of kilograms, swept back and forth, easily cutting off large pieces of the monster's body. .

At this time, the white tiger under him also roared, and countless rays of golden light escaped from its mouth, turning into swords, spears, and halberds, flying back and forth in the air, cutting off the heads of countless monsters in an instant.

It roared again, and a lot of golden light fell on the weapons of the people in golden armor below, adding a bit more color to it.

And it's not just their appearance that has changed, their power has also been directly increased by several percent. Originally, they were just simply stopping the monsters from advancing, but suddenly they show off their power, just like chopping melons and vegetables, killing them with ease. Killed a lot of monsters.

But in the face of the death of their companions, these little monsters had no fear. They raised their sharp claws and fangs one by one, desperately attacking the paper people.

No, attacking is not their real purpose. Perhaps, they simply feel the breath of living people in the distance, so they can't wait to taste their flesh and blood!

Seeing the man who was so powerful that he was as powerful as a real god, even Hanbei Takenaka, who prided himself on being calm, could not help but feel turbulent for a moment, and his whole body even trembled slightly.

Is this the true power of His Highness?If His Highness had used this kind of power against Yilong before, how could Yilong have persisted for so long?

No, maybe these are just part of his true power?
His teacher Bai Ze was also speechless for a moment.

With such a powerful power, coupled with the gradual recovery of spiritual energy, it may reach or even surpass the original Great Onmyoji Abe Seimei. In fact, it is only a matter of sooner or later, right?
After a slight nod of greeting, Takenaka Hanbei floated to the ground with a gust of breeze. Now he had some guesses as to why His Highness didn't take them down with him before.

Because in the face of such a chaotic battlefield, even if they are all very skilled, they are still somewhat dangerous. His Highness is probably thinking about their safety. After all, His Highness has such powerful spells and hundreds of paper soldiers to assist in the battle. There is no shortage at all. The power of a few samurai.

However, I can't just sit back and ignore it. This is not the way to be a minister, and even if it is far inferior to His Highness, the spells I have worked hard to practice can still play a certain role!
Seeing Hanbei's actions, Axiu, who seemed to be slightly shocked by the situation before him, immediately jumped down without hesitation.

With a soft "pop" sound, even though they were on the top floor of the castle tower, 30 meters above the ground, after landing, she only moved her legs a little and ran to join the battle. .

For her who is so powerful, this little power cannot even bring her any harm.

The corners of Wu Ming's mouth at the top of the castle tower couldn't help but twitch. Although she had comforted herself time and time again, she still couldn't hide her feelings after seeing this scene.

Really, it seems that I am getting farther and farther away from Axiu. Looking at the entire Nibon, maybe His Highness is the only one who can walk side by side with her, right?
At this moment, she suddenly heard a sigh from beside her. When she turned her head, she saw a pair of shining eyes. When both sides looked at each other, they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They all know that they and each other have some special powers, which can even be said to be one of the few in the entire Nippon. However, next to Asai Nagamasa and Axiu, they will suffer new blows from time to time.

Really, sometimes having excellent companions and friends is not all a benefit!

After looking at each other again, the little kunoichi took the lead in taking action. Although according to His Highness Nagamasa's current killing speed, maybe by the time they arrive, all the monsters will have been killed, and even the crack may have been closed. , but she must at least participate, and can't just be lazy here!

　I made up a half-finished soldier list and put it in the settings. Everyone is welcome to improve it together.
