Chapter 152 Big news! Sad Platycodon! (Please subscribe! Please vote!)
  "what is that?"

In a human village dozens of miles away, someone saw dark clouds in the sky in broad daylight, and then discovered a rising purple star in the center of darkness in the distance.

"It seems like something is flying towards our village."

Someone else discovered something else.

"Dad, mom..."

Among the children, there were also those with good eyesight who noticed the continuum of crystal colors that quickly swept through the clouds on the horizon.

That's definitely not a good thing.

Instinctively feeling scared in their hearts, they hugged their adults' legs or held their hands.

"It's bugs, lots of bugs!"

The crystal color was getting closer and closer; until it reached the top of the village, the villagers were sure that they were small moths. The crystal color that fills the sky is the moth powder thrown by the little moths.

Anyone who inhales this moth powder, even a small amount, will quickly lose consciousness and fall to the ground.

Then a strange scene appeared: countless human beings died on the roadside, in the fields, and in the villages in broad daylight, like a pile of dominoes collapsing.

The momentum is strong.

The direction starts from the area close to the Forest of No Return and spreads outward in a circular shape.

The spread is frighteningly fast.

One village, two villages...ten villages...hundreds of villages...

Regardless of whether they are young or old, women or children, as long as they inhale the moth powder, they are all affected.

Countless people watched in horror as the misfortune was coming, but they were powerless. They could only watch as their wives, children, elders, and relatives and friends around them fell unconscious. Of course, they themselves are no exception.

Death was so close that they were at a loss.

I want to escape, but human legs are nowhere faster than moth wings!

“Puff thump thump…”

They fell to the ground one after another.

A series of disasters loomed.

Their souls immediately left their bodies spontaneously, floated out of their mouths, and then flew into the air; after that, they would flock to the Forest of No Return and gather at the top of the Tree of Ages.

Momochi…

Thousand Roads…

The soul of all things…

And among these souls, there are not only those of humans, but also those of poultry and beasts, and even weak monsters or mountain elves.

They will also be attacked by swarms of moths, and their souls will be forcibly taken away.

In the eyes of those with advanced skills, these countless souls turned into meteors and flew towards the Forest of No Return. From the outside, it looks a little thin; but in the area close to the inheritance container, souls one after another get into the purple inheritance container, and the scene is extremely spectacular.

It's like waves of tides hitting the purple barrier.

The souls of many living creatures will then be transformed into pure demonic power and stored up in the inheritance container.

This also caused the purple light ball to expand more and more.

"a ha ha ha…"

Inside the purple inheritance container, Agate Maru was extremely excited at the moment.

With each additional soul collected by the moth swarm, he could clearly observe that the inheritance container grew stronger.

And this means that in the following time, as long as he absorbs and digests this power, he can accumulate an extra bit of his own heritage. The more souls the little cutie captures, the stronger he will naturally be after he completes his transformation and is born.

"Modo, Modo...

I want more!

My subjects, find more souls for your king! "

Onyx Maru…no! It should be said that it is a new generation of flying demon moths. This guy became even crazier because of the pleasure of gaining power.

I didn't think about the consequences of doing this at all.

Or maybe, people don’t pay attention to the island country’s demon world and the human world at all?
  ...

"What happened? What happened to this evil and extremely powerful demonic energy?"

In the distance, there is a temple halfway up the mountain. A mage who has been practicing for many years and has relatively deep skills is frowning.

When he saw the swarms of poisonous moths attacking from the horizon, his expression was extremely solemn.

Noticing the commotion in the village at the foot of the mountain, he did not think of staying out of it, but went down the mountain with a few disciples without hesitation.

Arriving at a wide space in the village, he set up a barrier:
  "Let all the villagers come in quickly!"

After holding up the barrier, he could no longer move. He could only ask his disciples to call as many villagers as possible into the barrier to take refuge.

A few minutes later a swarm of moths arrived.

Seeing the villagers gathered in the village, the moths immediately fluttered this way.

However, the moment the demonic moths touched the barrier, they all hit their heads and were bleeding. Many of them fell to the ground and turned into purple spots of evil energy that dissipated.

Finding that they couldn't get close to the human villagers, the moths began to throw poisonous powder.

But such a thing as a barrier, which is against one's will, can even resist the evil poisonous powder, giving no chance to the little moths at all.

The moths retreated, and the mage knelt down on one knee from exhaustion.

Using a large-scale barrier to confront the swarm of moths like a torrent was still too much for him:
  "Huh, huh... I finally managed to hold on."

Although he worked very hard and reluctantly, he finally protected the village.

The first moth harvest army suffered a setback.

And it's not just here. In other places, as long as there are witches trained in the village, as long as there are temples built around the village and guarded by magicians and priests with decent practices, those villages can be lucky enough to avoid disaster.

Even in the small mountain village in the wilderness that Platycodon accidentally built, Abi, an 8-year-old girl with the talent of a witch, discovered the danger in time; she immediately organized everyone to hide in a cave in the back of the temple, and then she blocked it A very weak hidden barrier was built at the entrance of the cave to barely protect everyone.

The little girl doesn't have much spiritual power, but she has grown up very quickly under the guidance of Platycodon's words and deeds, and she is also very smart.

At least in this first wave, the moths failed.

"Abi, are you okay?"

In the cave, a bunch of uncles and aunts all expressed concern.

Looking at the several inches of yellow moth powder accumulated on the ground at the entrance of the cave, everyone was indescribably frightened and swallowed their saliva wildly.

Then they looked up at the petite and childish figure who did not retreat even a little bit, and they were even more grateful beyond words. At the same time, each of them seemed to have seen the gods in their hearts, and their eyes became extremely eager.    "It's okay, just rest for a while."

After the little girl with a pale face finished speaking, she staggered and was about to fall down.

Thanks to someone's quick eyesight and quick hands, he helped the little girl in time, so that she didn't knock her head against the hard and cold mountain wall after her spiritual power was exhausted.

"Abi..."

"I'll take a nap."

The little girl said, curled up into a ball and passed out.

This time, everyone spontaneously protected the little girl in the middle.

The weak have the methods of the weak.

A strong person naturally has a strong style.

A powerful shrine maiden like Hitomi: She didn't guard the village at all, but after setting up a limited barrier for the village at the foot of the mountain, she took the initiative to kill the village to eliminate those demon moths within sight. .

There is also Monk Yunya, a wandering mage, who also leads seven disciples with good cultivation skills. He travels non-stop to many villages and wilderness, taking the initiative to attack the swarms of moths in the sky.

In addition, it is the power of the demon world.

Because moths fly everywhere, they always pass through the territory of some powerful monsters.

When encountering a big monster, the moth swarm will be completely burned by a burst of flame or a burst of thunder. When encountering mid-to-high-level monsters and threshold-level monsters with four-star monster power, the moths can only admit that they are unlucky, and they will disappear in large pieces.

If they accidentally broke into the secluded place of immortals or the sheltered place of gods, none of the little moths would survive.

For example, Yaolao Poison just waved his wooden cane and whipped up a wind of fairy power; the moths near the valley evaporated in an instant, and the sky cleared up again.

The poisonous moth with evil aura was completely defeated by the immortal power.

Certain gods with artifacts in their hands can control the wind, rain, and thunder, with almost similar effects.

Many forces unanimously attacked the demon moths under the command of Agate Maru, and the losses of the moths can be imagined.

...

"Huh? What happened? Why did the moths collect so few souls?"

It stands to reason that as the inheritance ceremony continues and the area affected by the moth swarm becomes larger and larger, more and more souls should be harvested.

"Can it be that those resources can still resist?"

Onymaru hadn't realized the difference between using this move during the day and using it late at night when everything was quiet.

He got Tie Suiya too early and broke the seal, so he expanded a bit too much.

It is undeniable that this guy has huge capital. The power left to him by his ancestors from previous generations alone can help him easily reach the level of top-level monsters. In addition, with the help of the complete era tree, it is difficult for many top demons to do anything to him.

But this era is no longer the era when his father bullied half of the island country into bloodbath.

After hundreds of years, this land has long since recovered its vitality.

"Hmph, it seems that the moths are acting too univocally."

Onyx Maru murmured.

Then another ability of the Age Tree was demonstrated, releasing the remnants of the monster army from back then.

That is a monster that only comes from mainland China:
  "Go, go kill, cooperate with my moths to kill the creatures on this land, and sacrifice more souls to me!"

His eyes were blood red.

Thousands of monsters swarmed out from the branches of the Age Tree, flying to cause carnage in all directions.

As long as the souls leave the body within the radiation range of his demonic power, those souls cannot escape the hunting of the inheritance ritual, and are destined to be transformed into the resources needed for his growth.

The millions of living souls and a large number of dead souls collected before were far from satisfying his appetite.

This time, although the speed of the soul tide is slower, it is faster.

The village that had been lucky enough to escape the disaster once again felt the taste of fear and despair.

A large number of mountain spirits and wild monsters dormant in the mountains and fields were purged.

Such as the central tribe of the demon wolf tribe.

The central tribe, which was originally the strongest among the five tribes in the east, west, south, north, and the west tribe and the south tribe, which were not weak in strength, were all caught off guard by the sudden attack and suffered heavy losses. Countless transformed wolf monsters died one after another.

The demon wolf clan, which was already in decline, became even more declining after this wave.

(Gang Ya belongs to the Eastern Tribe, and Gang Ya’s fiancée belongs to the Northern Tribe. Because this guy had a marriage contract with the little princess of the Northern Tribe, in the later period, Gang Ya was able to become the leader of the entire Demon Wolf Clan, and had the ability to enter the secret land of the Demon Wolf Clan to obtain Qualifications for Five Thunder Finger.)
  ...

On the back of the flaming hoof.

Platycodon was very uncomfortable.

"Otherwise, you'd better not go there. He doesn't even want to let go of the dead girl's soul in your body. If you continue to get closer, the few remaining souls will be forcibly taken away."

Li Xia, who was holding the girl in his arms, frowned slightly.

Kikyo's situation is dire.

The pure white dead soul insects couldn't snatch the inheritance container light ball on the tree of time.

If the strength of summoning the dead souls over there is "100", the little cuties here work together and go all out, and the binding strength on the dead souls is only "10".

And the closer you get to Agate Maru, the stronger the summons from the other side becomes.

Hundreds of miles away, the clay body of Platycodon looked as if the girl's soul was about to be drained out of her body again.

If Li Xia hadn't held up the barrier to protect her and reduced the forcible restraint as much as possible, the half-blooded witch in her arms might have returned to the "blood-locked state" with only "a little blood" left.

"You had expected that this would happen to me, right?"

Platycodon said in embarrassment.

Being laughed at made her feel really bad.

"The conscience of heaven and earth..."

On horseback, Li Xia patted his conscience and cried out.

Yes, the girl guessed it right.

But he must deny it.

He didn't mean to take advantage, he just wanted to remind Kikyo not to be too arrogant.

Naraku's weaknesses have been clearly figured out for a long time, so where does he have the confidence to deal with Naraku alone?
  It's better to cooperate with him.
