The next moment, a cherry-white figure appeared in the palace.
Otonashi Cheyuki touched the ground lightly with her toes, raised her head, looked at the empty shrine in front of her, and then said coldly.
"What, Takeda, where are the guards you arranged here?"
At this moment, Takeda Hikaru's voice came from somewhere in the shrine, echoing in the shrine.
"Haha, Otonashi, I'm going to disappoint you. In fact, I haven't found anyone who can be your opponent at all."
"So, I can only use the power of Fujin people to customize one for you."
Following his words, the various colors in the shrine suddenly began to fade away, and the entire palace gradually became transparent, turning into crystal clear mirrors, reflecting Otonuche standing in the shrine from all angles.
The silhouette of snow.
Tens of thousands of huge spiritual powers began to converge on the crystal in the center of the palace, and a hazy black shadow faintly emerged from it.
Facing this strange scene, Otonashi Cheyuki's eyebrows couldn't help but frown slightly.
In the next moment, Die Tian appeared in her hand, and the spiritual power in her body began to flow into the dark blade crazily, and then she swung the sword towards the crystal in front of her without hesitation.
boom!
During the collision, a powerful shock wave erupted, setting off a violent storm in the palace, as if it was going to annihilate everything in it.
However, the next second, Otonashi Chexue, who was at the center of the storm, suddenly had a look of surprise in his eyes.
Because at this moment, a dark arm holding a sword suddenly poked out of the crystal, and easily blocked her attack.
However, what surprised Otonashi Chexue was not that the other party blocked her attack so easily.
It was because she discovered that the sword in the opponent's hand was exactly the same as the one in her hand!
Could it be that...
Taking advantage of Otonashi Chexue's daze, the black shadow struck out with another slash, forcing him back.
As if to confirm her thoughts, the next moment, the black shadow walked out of the crystal completely, and the darkness on its body slowly dissipated, revealing the cherry-white kimono underneath.
Looking at the calm and pretty face that was no different from his own, Otonashi Chexue couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Takeda, could it be said..."
At this moment, Takeda Hikaru's voice sounded again, affirming.
"That's right, the opponent I prepared for you is yourself."
"The clone in front of you has all your combat experience and skills, and its strength is almost the same as the real you."
"Although I can't defeat you, it's enough to hold you back for a long enough time."
"By the time you can leave here, everything will have already moved towards the situation that should have been destined."
"This is my purpose."
At the same time as Takeda Hikari's voice fell, the figure of the clone also mysteriously disappeared from the place.
The next moment, he appeared in front of Otonashi Cheyuki, and the sworn sword in his hand was quickly covered with a layer of dim light, and he quickly chopped it down towards Otonashi Cheyuki.
When there was no time to dodge, Otonashi Cheyuki could only wield the same deadly force and attack him with the same move.
boom!
A strong shock wave once again exploded in the temple.
In the huge turbulence, two figures escaped one after another, each landing on one side of the shrine, looking at each other warily.
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
Takeda Hikaru's voice continued to come, and he asked with a smile.
"So, Otonashi, he's a fairly matched opponent, right?"
In response, Otonashi Cheyuki breathed out gently.
For the first time in history, he held the hilt of the sworn sword with both hands, stared at the delicate face opposite him, and said softly with an unprecedented solemn expression on his pretty face.
"To be honest, I have never hated myself as much as I do now."
...
The twelfth house of Shinto, the tenth house.
At this moment, the battle between Igarashi Ryukou and Abe Seimei has come to an end.
"Yan Ling, dirty poison!"
Following Abe Seimei's sharp shout, green poisonous gas turned into arrows and shot towards Igarashi Ryugu from all angles.
"The fifth ultimate move of the super brave, purify, the flashing sword!"
In response, Igarashi Liuguang raised the long black sword in his hand high, and the sword immediately lit up with a bright light.
Under the illumination of this ray of light, all the poisonous gas arrows flying towards him suddenly rose up with white gas, and then disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this scene, Abe Seimei's eyes suddenly darkened.
Sure enough, it was cracked again...
In the battle just now, no matter what kind of onmyoji he cast, Igarashi Liuguang on the opposite side only needed to shout out a meaningless word like just now, and he would be able to exert his ability to restrain him.
This makes Abe Seimei more and more certain that such ability is definitely brought to the opponent by the curse seal of Qingxing Lan!
Unexpectedly, there is such a powerful curse seal in this world, which can make him fall into a bitter battle...
but......
He quickly pulled away and jumped back, narrowly avoiding Igarashi Liuguang's sword, and spoke at the same time.
"I said, you have almost reached your limit, right?"
"Look at the candles next to you, they are almost all extinguished."
"No matter how powerful the curse seal is, it must be restricted by rules. For you, these lit candles are restrictions."
"Just like the story of Hyakumonogatari, when the hundredth candle goes out, the souls of all the people who tell the story will go to hell. And now, it's almost your turn, Igarashi Ryukou!"
In response to this, Igarashi Liuguang did not waver at all. He pulled out the sword from the wall and snorted coldly.
"Humph, isn't it the same for you?"
"You have never used the powerful onmyoji like the one at the beginning. I think your consumption is greater than mine, right?"
"If this continues, you will definitely be the first to go to hell!"
"Yeah?"
At this moment, Abe Seimei finally couldn't hide it anymore. Big beads of sweat kept flowing from his forehead, and he managed to hold on.
"Huh...huh...you are right. If this continues, I will go to hell before you."
The next moment, he suddenly showed a strange smile.
"But this time, I will win."
"Huh? What are you talking about-"
Igarashi Liuguang raised his sword again.
The next moment, his eyes involuntarily widened to their limit, and he lowered his head blankly.
At this moment, a beautiful blood flower bloomed from Igarashi Liuguang's chest.
The sharp dagger blade pierced his chest, and the Yin Yang magic attached to it burrowed into the skin along the wound like a leech and began to erode his body.
Poof!
As the opponent pulled out the dagger, Igarashi Liuguang's body also fell to the ground.
At this moment, while the look in his eyes was gradually decreasing, he also looked at the man who appeared behind him at some unknown time.
Looking at the face that looked exactly like Abe Seimei, I realized something.
I see......
Abe Seimei...there are two!
...
Yinshi Shrine.
Each of the twelve flames burning in the shrine presents a scene corresponding to the shrine.
Among them, some captains have won the battle, but there are also many losers.
At this moment, Takeda Hikaru glanced at the scene in the flames and coughed twice.
"Ahem, it looks like it's finally over."
"Looking at it this way, there are a total of six wins, five losses and one draw, and the winning side is the Shinto Twelve Palaces."
"Then according to the bet, tell me everything about you, Yagami Sora."
To this, Ye Shenkong did not answer, but asked curiously.
"Miyaji Takeda, are you going to just listen to me?"
"Aren't you worried that I will lie?"
"Of course not." Takeda Hikari smiled kindly.
"Because I know that in some ways, we are actually very similar."
"There is also no fusion curse seal. He is not as powerful as other extraordinary beings. He understands the weakness of the weak, but he can also use his own way to defeat the strong."
"The most important thing is that we all have unswerving beliefs, so people like us will not waste our energy in this place to make up some unnecessary lies."
"Faith?"
Ye Shenkong was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but reveal a meaningless smile, and nodded calmly.
"Well, maybe that's true."
Takeda Hikaru smiled, and then his expression turned serious.
"Then, please speak, I am all ears——"
"Wait a minute." Ye Shenkong suddenly interrupted.
"Miyaji Takeda, the defeat of the Yobushi Thirteenth Team has not been confirmed yet, right?"
Takeda Hikari was stunned for a moment, and then said a little puzzled.
"But the battles everywhere are over..."
Ye Shenkong smiled.
"Miyaji Takeda just said that we are very similar in some ways, and I actually quite agree with that."
"For example, when I can't beat you, I will occasionally use the same ability as you."
"Same ability as me?"
Takeda Hikaru repeated in surprise.
Ye Shenkong nodded.
"That's right, it's the ability to make money."
...
The 12th house of Shinto, the second house.
A member of the Second Division was trapped in the water pillars erected everywhere, and many people lost consciousness due to drowning.
The captain of the second division, Kentaro Sugiyama, was lying on the ground, having completely lost his combat effectiveness.
The skin becomes tight due to a large amount of water loss and looks like a mummy.
At this moment, he reluctantly raised his head, looked at the gelatinous creature in front of him, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Let... let them go. If you want to kill them, just come to me!"
But when facing his words, the other party seemed not to hear him and continued to pull the water out of his body.
The next moment, the temperature in the entire shrine suddenly dropped.
A cold wind that was inconsistent with the season swept through the entire temple. For a moment, the body of the gelatinous creature could not help but rise with pieces of ice, and it froze in place, turning into an ice wither.
At the same time, a pleasant sound with a bit of coolness also reached Kentaro Sugiyama's ears.
"Humans, it looks like you are in some kind of trouble. Do you need my help?"
Looking at the girl in kimono who suddenly appeared next to him, Kentaro Sugiyama couldn't help but swallow and moisten his throat before he could speak again.
"Who are you......"
The girl smiled slightly, then bowed gracefully.
"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself."
"I am the outsourced member of the fifth division of the Yafu 13th Division, the snow girl Yukino."
