Chapter Sixty-eight
"Haa~~"
"It's a bit boring."
After leaving his elders, Gu Yun walked straight towards the depths of the sea of flowers on the other side, never leaving the flowers, which perfectly ensured the progress of the awakening mission.
"I have just endured the devastation of spiritual transmission, and I still have to walk so many roads."
"Suffer."
Gu Yun found a place and sat on the ground facing Santuchuan: "Let's rest for a while."
Coincidentally, Gu Yun had previously obtained two new shikigami.
Because the Sakura Demon needs to find a cherry blossom tree first, he cannot awaken it in the underworld.
According to Sode Shirayuki, there is no one around, so now is the opportunity to summon her.
"So…"
Gu Yun closed his eyes, entered a meditative state, and called softly from the bottom of his heart: "Sleeve Shirayuki."
"Wow~~~"
As Gu Yun called out Sode Shirayuki's name, with him as the center, pure white cold air spread in all directions.
Wherever the cold wind passed, the sea of flowers on the other side was instantly covered with ice and snow, and even a small area of the Santu River was frozen by it.
"You called my name."
"My master."
What appeared in front of Gu Yun was a beautiful woman who looked like she was made of ice and snow. She had long lavender shawl hair tied up behind her head.
A strand hangs down on the woman's forehead, and is separated from her hair with a blue star-shaped hairpin.
A light yellow-green belt is wrapped around her slender and soft waist, and a large lavender bow is tied behind her back.
"First time we meet, I am Sode Shirayuki."
Dressed in a white long furisode kimono, Sode Shirayuki gracefully bent her knees and knelt beside Gu Yun, her ice-blue eyes as gentle as water.
She looked at Gu Yun as if she were looking at the most important treasure in her life.
That is the meaning of her existence, and the master she wants to protect with her life.
"Oh, Hello."
Gu Yun quickly greeted: "My name is Gu Yun, Iijima Gu Yun."
"Ok, I know."
The Sode Shirayuki in front of me is not Rukia's Zanpakutō. She belongs to Gu Yun and is a brand new Zanpakutō bred from his soul.
Therefore, Xiu Baixue knows many things about Gu Yun and has the same feelings as him.
"Woo~~"
The dead souls under the Santu River were trembling, and they howled angrily, seeming to blame Gu Yun for his misdeeds.
"Are there any undead souls under the water?"
Gu Yun turned on his spiritual vision and discovered that these things were not the souls of the dead at all, but just the miasma left by the people who crossed the river in the Santu River.
Miasma is to the soul what shadow is to humans.
Of course, just as light reflects a shadow, the miasma here is just a temporary trace of the soul.
In fact, when the souls of the dead cross the river, such resentment will continue to flow from them into the Santu River.
But as time goes by, the concentration of resentment becomes lower and lower.
Until the moment when their souls cross the Santu River and exaggerate to the other side, they no longer have the hatred and obsession brought from the human world.
"How noisy!"
Sode Shirayuki's face darkened, now was the time for her to reunite with her master.
After finally waking up, Xiu Baixue had thousands of words in her heart that she wanted to tell Gu Yun.
"Get out of my way, concubine!"
Sode Shirayuki shook off his sleeves, and the overwhelming blizzard swallowed up all the resentment in an instant...
The low-temperature spiritual energy that could even freeze the soul was raging on the deserted Santu River. In just a few seconds, the miasma of resentment that was originally like waves had disappeared without a trace.
Only the ice shards all over the sky were left, coating the other side of the Huangquan, which had never snowed, with a glittering and translucent light.
"I have cleaned away the dirty shadows."
Sode Shirayuki asked respectfully: "Do you need me to transform into a Zanpakutō, Master?"
There are two types of Sode Shirayuki
One state is to turn it into a weapon and be held by Gu Yun in battle.
The other is like now, Sode Shirayuki has transformed into a human form and can still exert his own power.
【Sode Shirayuki】
Race: Artifact Spirit
Spirit: 50 (equivalent to a god)
Spiritual power: super demon
Talents: White Dance, Ice and Snow Control, Absolute Zero, Swastika·White Cloud Punishment
Sode Shirayuki's normal state is equivalent to the initial release state, possessing the spiritual power of a super-level demon.
She can stop the flow of molecules and atoms by controlling her own temperature, and is so powerful that she can even freeze a certain range of time and space.
In "Death", Rukia uses Sode Shirayuki's power to freeze others while also lowering her own temperature.
But because Sode Shirayuki is the incarnation of ice and snow, there are no side effects from Rukia.
In other words, even if Sode Shirayuki lowers her temperature to 'absolute zero', she will not collapse.
On the contrary, it can stay in this state for a long time, causing devastating blows to the enemy and the area.
"This kind of power is truly worthy of a super-class monster."
Gu Yun asked: "Then I use absolute zero..."
"It can only last a few seconds."
"Forehead…"
Well, Gu Yun is still human.
He cannot use his power at will like Sode Shirayuki.
In this regard, instead of letting Gu Yun fight holding Sode Shirayuki, it would be better to let her fight alone in human form, so that she can exert her full power.
"Swastika, is that the swastika?"
"Yes."
Sode no Shirayuki's most powerful power is the state she has transformed into Shirayaki, which is Rukia's swastika.
In the swastika state, Bai Kasumi has the power to rival the great monster.
Both are SRs, but Sode Shirayuki's swastika has no time limit, allowing her to maintain the white cloud punishment state for a long time to fight the enemy.
Although this power can only be regarded as mid-to-lower among the big monsters.
But a big monster is a big monster, and it is by no means a super monster that can touch porcelain.
"So strong."
Gu Yun praised, and Xiu Baixue was very happy: "This is the power you gave me, Master. You are the powerful one, not me."
After all, it was Gu Yun who created Sode Shirayuki.
In essence, Xiu Baixue is actually the embodiment of Gu Yun's soul power.
"Speaking of which, Master is here just to summon me?"
Xiu Baixue got some of Gu Yun's memories, but not all.
She has a spiritual connection with her master.
However, this kind of telepathy is more like a tacit understanding than mind reading.
Unless Gu Yun spoke to Sode Shirayuki in her heart, she would not be able to spy on her master's thoughts even with the Zanpakutō.
"Oh, I'm just waiting for time."
"Waiting time?"
"To awaken a new companion."….
Gu Yun did not hide Xiu Baixue, and said bluntly: "Her name is Bianhua, she is..."
"He is a very strong monster, he should be..."
Gu Yun is not sure about Bianhua's strength.
But as for SSR, it can't be worse than Momiji and Sode Shirayuki.
"Well, then..."
The snow-like beauty came close to Gu Yun, and her thin and soft sleeves brushed his face, as if she wanted to wrap her whole body in her arms.
"Please let me stay here with my master."
Her small snow-white hands gently tapped Gu Yun's cheek. Xiu Baixue put two fingers together and slowly pressed the acupuncture points on the master's head, and used spiritual power to stimulate and unblock the spirit body: "Is the master satisfied with this strength?
"
"Ah~~so comfortable."
Sode Shirayuki's hands were a little cool, but not cold.
The massage, both in technique and strength, was perfect.
one
Wisps of cold air penetrated Gu Yun's forehead and shuttled through his spiritual body, repairing the damage caused by his divine mind technique and relieving his mental stress.
"Cool..."
Unconsciously, Gu Yun fell asleep and finally buried his face in Sode Shirayuki's chest.
"Asleep~"
Sode Shirayuki hugged Gu Yun and patted his back gently: "How cute."
Being able to sleep so peacefully in her arms, this defenseless posture is the best reward for Sode Shirayuki.
In this world, when it comes to loyalty to Gu Yun, Xiu Baixue will not lose to anyone.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Xiu Baixue's hand holding Gu Yun tightened slightly.
She frowned slightly and looked towards the Santu River in the distance, where a small boat was slowly sailing by.
"So much resentment."
Standing on the boat was a girl with long black hair and straight hair wearing an exquisite kimono. She seemed to have sensed Sode Shirayuki's spying.
The red eyes glanced slightly at the snow-like woman kneeling in the sea of flowers on the other side, and the boy in her arms.
[Get clues about the new shikigami ‘Yama’]
[Due to the damage of ‘Yama’, extract the fragments and obtain three copies of ‘Yama’s power’.
【Yama】
Awakening: It is necessary to complete three divine powers to fully awaken the shikigami.
Recovery path: Need to obtain the power of hell, the power of underworld, and the power of underworld
【Yama·Hell Messenger】
Introduction: The inheritance of Yama with the divine personality, divinity and spiritual power of Yama
Obtain the mission: Contact the curse of Enma Ai and free him from the shackles of the hell girl
【Yama·Huangquan Envoy】
Get task: not triggered
【Yama·Messenger of the Underworld】
Get task: not triggered
"Dingling~"
The sound of Kagura bells echoed on the hazy Santu River. Yama Ai did not pay much attention to Sode Shirayuki and Gu Yun. They were not pure dead people.
Moreover, Sode Shirayuki is very strong.
That surging spiritual power can be clearly felt by Yama Ai even from a long distance away.
"Snowing?"
Yan Moai raised his head in surprise. Santuchuan had never had the concept of spring, summer, autumn and winter.
So where does this snow come from?
"Is it them?"
Yan Moai thought of the woman in white whom she had glanced at before. The power on her body seemed to be of the nature of ice and snow.
"Where is this place and who are you?"
On the boat, a man was wailing loudly, which woke up Yama Ai who was thinking...
"Where are you taking me?"
However, Yama Ai didn't say anything, he just silently moved the oar in his hand.
"jingle!"
The bell echoed, and the girl with long black hair silently stared ahead.
And there, a huge torii slowly emerged from the mist: "This resentment and hatred will flow to hell..."
"..."
Sode Shirayuki watched this scene until Enma Ai's figure completely disappeared behind the torii.
"what is that?"
She could sense the intense resentment and curse on Yama Ai.
Unfortunately, Sode Shirayuki's understanding of the rules after death in this world is very one-sided.
Fortunately, the other party had no intention of getting close to Gu Yun.
In this case, Sode Shirayuki will not interfere with Enma Ai's behavior, it has nothing to do with her.
"It must be something like a messenger from hell."
Momiji appeared next to Sode Shirayuki.
Regarding the companion on the same scroll, Sode Shirayuki knows the information about Momiji: "Hell Messenger?"
"I don't know the specifics. Maybe the master's grandfather knows the identity of the other party."
The appearance of Enma Ai made Sode Shirayuki and Momiji extremely vigilant. Their understanding of the hell and underworld in this world
Too lacking.
What kind of danger there is here, whether there are enemies, neither woman knows.
"Don't mind your own business."
"Um."
Momiji's thoughts coincided with Sode Shirayuki's: "I think so too."
It's enough to protect Gu Yun.
It doesn't matter how many others die.
Momiji is an evil demon, and Sode Shirayuki only wants to protect Gu Yun's Zanpakutō.
Except for Gu Yun, they don't care about anything.
"Um…"
Soon after, Gu Yun woke up in a daze.
"Haa~~"
He stretched out and felt that the energy he had lost before was restored to its original state at this moment.
"Master, are you awake?"
Xiu Baixue let go of Gu Yun, then stood up respectfully and stood aside.
"Well, thank you for the massage, Sode Shirayuki."
"This is what I should do."
Hearing Gu Yun's praise, Xiu Baixue looked calm on the surface, but actually she was very happy inside.
"Owner."
"Eh? Hongye, why did you come out too?"
Gu Yun found that Hongye was also waiting aside, and felt a little strange: "Did something happen? Did an enemy come while I was sleeping?"
Judging from the strength Sode Shirayuki has shown previously, there should be no opponent nearby who can match her.
But the red leaves also appeared.
It can be seen from this that they must have encountered something to be prepared.
"Hell Messenger?"
"A straight black girl with red eyes wearing a kimono?"
Gu Yun listened to the descriptions of the two people and complained: "Haha, is this Yen Mo Ai?"
Ah, no, this seems to be the underworld.
"Is it really a hell girl?"
Only then did Gu Yun notice the newly appeared scroll. The light would disappear only after he opened it, which was a reminder.
"It's really Enma Ai!"
Looking at the picture scroll that recorded "Yama", I found that the awakening mission of this Queen of the Netherworld was even more excessive than Yu Chongjin.
It is necessary to collect the three divine inheritances of hell, underworld, and underworld, and through three messengers, revive the sleeping Yama...
"This Yama looks very strong."
Gu Yun had a hunch that if Yama could be awakened, her power would probably far exceed her appearance in the game.
"The Great Lord who rules the underworld, the Empress of the Netherworld, the great director of the underworld..."
Looking at the picture scroll's description of Yama, Gu Yun secretly thought: "The big monster isn't that powerful after all!"
Of course, Gu Yun is not sure as he has never seen it with his own eyes.
How far Yama's power has reached can only be truly known after completing the awakening mission.
"By the way, there are also Hibiscus flowers!!"
Gu Yun quickly opened the picture scroll of Bianhuahua and found that the awakening task above had been completed.
【Bana Flower】
How to wake up: Facing the sea of flowers on the other side, call out in the tone of your lover, ‘Wake up, my flowers on the other side.
"......."
Gu Yun held his forehead and complained: "Come again?"
"Am I under the rich woman's curse?"
There is no doubt that Bianhua is a big sister in terms of temperament and figure.
So his family wants another rich woman who can fight well?
"Forget it, it's not the first time anyway."
Being taken care of can happen only once or countless times.
Gu Yun said that since he couldn't resist, just lie down and enjoy it.
"When you call, you call."
"Ahem!"
Gu Yun cleared his throat, adjusted his clothes again, and then said in a gentle tone: "Wake up, my Bianhua."
"Boom!!!"
"Wha, what's going on?!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yun felt the ground shaking.
Looking at the Santu River on the side, the river surface that has been calm for countless years is turbulent. Compared with the previous stress reaction of resentment, it is simply the difference between waves and tsunami.
Above it, the dark sky was shrouded in blood red.
"Wow~~"
The boundless sea of flowers on the other side seemed to come to life, and every flower blossom bloomed with bright light.
They were jumping for joy, as if they were cheering and praising the goddess of death who was about to awaken.
"La~~"
The entire other shore, around Gu Yun, and beyond, and even every corner of the other shore is blooming with other shore flowers.
Weird, like a Japanese horror nursery rhyme, the melody moves from near to far...
"What is this sound?"
The song that cannot be described in words seems to have penetrated directly into people's minds and echoed in everyone's heart.
"Um?"
At this moment, Lingzi and others, who were originally looking at the scenery by the Santu River, suddenly looked towards the sea of flowers on the other side in the distance.
"Gu Yun is over there!!"
Grandpa called out, 'Lingzi,' and the latter rushed out immediately before he could finish speaking.
"what happened?"
Tsuba Kishiro's expression suddenly changed: "Such demonic power! Why do demons of this level appear here?"
"Gela la!"
"Boom!!"
The shaking of the earth continued and became more intense, and cracks continued to spread along the Santu River. A large number of plant roots spilled out from them, which turned out to be the vines of the flower that was buried deep under the underworld of Huangquan.
And they are attacking the group of undead waiting by the river.
"What are these flowers going crazy about?"….
Reiko was blocked by the increasingly bewitching sea of flowers on the other side. She stepped into it and felt her whole body trembling.
"curse!"
"A curse of this intensity?"
Reiko had to stop. When her grandfather saw this, he quickly used magic to investigate, and the result was: "This is a derivative of the big monster, here, there, and all these Higanbana flowers!"
"all?!"
Reiko looked at her grandfather in shock: "Master, you mean, the entire Manjushahuadu on the other side of the underworld..."
"Wow~~~"
Before Reiko was shocked, she saw a blood-red sky with billowing dark clouds.
The terrible news almost reached the ears of the souls in Taoyuan Township.
They heard it.
"Crying?"
"Where did the crying come from?"
"Who is crying?"
At this moment, in both Huangquan Taoyuan Township and the other side of the river, the souls of the dead heard bursts of painful wails and mournful cries.
However, this cry did not come from gods, nor was it a ghost in the underworld.
"yes…"
Reiko and Snail raised their heads in disbelief: "Heaven and earth are crying."
The sky and the earth are the world itself.
The world is crying!
"You can't be wrong, this is the power that only big monsters have."
Kotaki Goshiro's voice trembled slightly: "The huge demonic power shattered the sky and tore the earth apart. The huge pain caused by this made the world unbearable, and they could only wail and cry."
"Heaven and earth cry with grief!"
Great monsters are the highest level of monsters. They are so powerful that their mere existence can interfere with the operation of the world.
This leads to turbulence in time and space and chaos in laws.
If they fight with each other, it will even cause cracks in the cornerstone of the world's balance.
It is precisely because of this power and destructive power that all big monsters will contain their power within their bodies and will not release it easily.
put.
But why?
Why would a big monster of this level appear here!
"Boom~~"
On the other side, Gu Yun only saw endless, mountain-like flowers rising into the sky. They continued to merge, and finally turned into a sacred mountain of flowers thousands of meters high.
On the top of the mountain, a blood-red bud sprouted.
The buds bloomed, and a charming woman with fatal temptation slowly woke up from her curling up.
"This demonic power!"
Momiji and Sode Shirayuki looked solemnly at the Higanbana that appeared in front of them.
They were pushed by the sea of flowers, rose into the sky, and appeared at the place closest to the flower buds.
"This guy is very dangerous..."
The two women looked at each other and quickly protected Gu Yun behind them.
The opponent's body carries a very terrifying smell of blood, even red leaves cannot compare with it.
If Momiji is the daughter of the Demon King, then the Higanbana in front of her is the complete female Demon King, a hell ghost who kills without batting an eye and sucks out the enemy's bone marrow.
"Are you calling me?"
Bianhua felt that the boy in front of her was the lover she had been waiting for for countless years and needed her to protect and serve.
However, before she could step forward to embrace Gu Yun, two figures, one red and one white, built two high walls of ice, snow and maple leaves to block him from the outside.
"You are…"
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed across Bianhua Sanwu's face: "Companion?"
"I don't need boring things like companions."
Without giving Momiji and Sode Shirayuki a chance to speak, Higanbana waved her hand, and a large number of red and white talismans surged out, shattering their defenses in an instant.
"Wow~"
The endless talismans swallowed up the two women, and Bianhuahua's fingers were flying, and a huge barrier was soon built.
So, Gu Yun was inside the barrier with her.
Red leaves and Sode Shirayuki…
It doesn't matter who she is, so she shouldn't disturb her and her dear one again today!
"This guy!"
"Does she want to monopolize the master?"
"Unforgivable!"
Hongye became angry, the clothes on her body began to rot, and her whole body instantly transformed into a hunter's posture.
"You are not the only one who can make the world cry!"
The sea of flowers on the other side began to rot, and countless maple leaves scattered from the sky like falling snow.
The blood-colored sky slanted down streaks of red light, like the mottled setting sun leaking through the gaps in the leaves.
Everyone raised their heads and saw huge maple leaves like a dome, covering the rolling sea of flame-like clouds.
"This is!!"
"Hiss~~"
Kotaki Goshiro, who was standing at the farthest end, felt his cheek sting as if boiling water had been poured on him, and he instinctively stepped back.
But even though he had reacted immediately, the clothes on Kotaki Goshiro's body and the arm that covered his face were still rotting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This is exactly the "Heaven and Earth cry in sorrow," a corrupt law that can corrode all things and cause them to rot!
Chapter completed!
