Aoi Keisuke and Hoshino arrived at Ozawa Village.
The ruins here were soaked in the rain, and the lush vegetation cast shadows, spreading a gloomy coldness throughout the village.
Fujiko Hoshino subconsciously hugged his arms to resist the biting cold in his heart.
Compared to when I came here with Tetsuya Yezakura before, the current Ozawa Village is even more weird, as if there is an indescribable gap between it and the real world, and it is about to break away and disappear.
In other words, the gods are hidden.
The spiritual power gathers here, with the momentum and determination to engulf everything, and unleashes malice on the world.
In a trance, she seemed to see the passing village of Ozawa through these ruins, with every object and tile clearly visible, and even human voices reaching her ears from afar.
"■■, are you coming back? Come over for dinner tonight."
"Welcome home."
Hoshino gently covered her ears with her hands to prevent the gentle voice from dragging her into it.
"Where is the entrance?" She turned to Qing Keisuke and asked.
"The entrance is not in the village. I just want to come over first to see the ruins with my own eyes."
Aoi Keisuke looked around and finally came to the original site of Toyatsu Shrine.
There is nothing left here, all traces have been washed away by the floods, leaving behind thick weeds.
Qing Keisuke picked up some damp soil here and threw it away.
Hoshino looked at him quietly, trying to find out the information and intelligence Aoi Keisuke had that he would not verbalize.
The two walked roughly around Ozawa Village, and Hoshino learned that Aoi Keisuke had quietly set up a formation here.
Then the two of them continued to follow the traces of the flood to find the source. When she and Tetsuya Yezakura came, they went in circles and never reached their destination.
This time with Qing Keisuke, she somehow gained more confidence.
"After the Pure Domain is opened, can we avoid wandering around here?" She continued to ask.
"Um……"
After hearing this, Qing Keisuke thought for a moment and replied: "Strictly speaking, no.
First of all, you cannot blame the Pure Domain for not being able to find a way here before.
Fundamentally speaking, it is the spirituality entrenched here, the instinctive resistance, and the corresponding effects are produced because of the resistance. This is the simplest application of spirituality itself."
Hoshino understood that the spirituality of this place had not disappeared, it was even worse than before.
It's just that Qing Keisuke can still see the right path.
"Of course, after the Pure Realm is opened, this resistance itself is a layer of screening, whether it is the material that attracts blood sacrifices, or the selected people."
Even without his guidance, Hoshino, who could hear the strange sounds, would definitely be able to find the entrance.
Of course, if she comes alone, it doesn't matter whether she goes in actively or passively.
They were walking in the dark mountain forest, and the rainwater around them gradually gathered into water flow, flowing down along the tree roots, earth and rocks.
Then, they actually found a stream.
The only exception is that this stream is suspended quietly in mid-air. The water flow penetrates through the canopy of the tree, without taking away any leaves or a drop of rainwater.
"Well……"
When Fujiko Hoshino came here, he suddenly held his head in pain.
"Please listen to me..."
The sudden and heavy spirituality fell on her soul like a giant hammer, and an indescribable picture appeared in her mind. It was not until Qing Keisuke stretched out his fingers to press the center of her eyebrows that the pain gradually disappeared.
"Are you feeling better, President?"
Qing Keisuke smiled and said: "Your inspiration is really good."
He meant something, but Hoshino just gasped a few times and did not respond to his temptation.
"If you can't even do a good job as a bodyguard, burying yourself in the mountains might be a good choice."
"Yes, yes, I will definitely pay attention next time."
Qing Keisuke wiped away the tears that almost fell from the corners of her eyes and said expectantly: "We will be there soon."
"..."
Hoshino paused after hearing this and said, "I just saw... something."
"oh?"
"I saw... mountain fires, huge shrines, and corpses floating in the water."
The picture that appeared in Hoshino's mind was too chaotic, and she could only try her best to describe it with fragmented expressions. She even saw a picture of herself and Qing Keisuke lying together in a pool of blood.
What she didn't know was that Qing Keisuke had a deeper misunderstanding of her ability because of her words.
He pondered for a moment, and finally decided to pay attention to the strange picture Hoshino saw from his spiritual mind.
"Don't worry, President."
Qing Keisuke drives his spirituality, builds secret rituals, and communicates with the mysterious space. His temperament changes instantly.
"Whatever it is, let me crush it."
Black spells slowly appeared between his brows and under his eyes, making his expression look a bit gentle and cold.
After witnessing the influence of Osawa Mountain on Weizi, Qing Keisuke finally perfected the entire technique!
Hanako No. 1's illusory eyes opened behind his shoulder, and then slowly closed again.
Hoshino couldn't fully understand Aoi Keisuke's changes at this time. Even if he could listen to his heart, he would never understand the origin of this power.
The only thing she could feel was Aoi Keisuke's satisfaction with his power at this moment, and... his arrogance.
They walked through the floating river, which symbolized secrets, and the whole world gradually began to become strange and bizarre.
——They are heading towards the Pure Realm!
Hoshino saw flowers blooming in the gloomy mountain forest, flowers, woodland, and twisted tall trees, all gathered together, even embedded together, but blooming freely without any interference.
It's as if two worlds are meeting here.
The air was rumbling, and the path they were traveling on was gradually compressed and became smaller. The folds on the edge of the entire "world" could already be seen, and the things in front of them became more and more distorted.
In Hoshino Fujiko's eyes, only Aoi Keisuke's back remained upright and calm, shielding her from all the erosion.
"Toyotsu the Great! Toyotsu the Great!"
The bleak song sounded again, and beyond the edge that they could not approach, a ceremony team was singing and dancing. They walked through the sea of black flowers, carrying a closed sarcophagus.

"I offer my sacrificial flesh and blood to help you return to the earth!"
The spiritual blood and bones were splashed and discarded along the way. These things all come from the spiritual animals bred in the Daze Mountains.
Aoi Keisuke and Hoshino watched the team disappear at the end of the space before continuing to move forward.
"Are you scared, President?"
"No." Hoshino replied coldly.
"Then just keep going."
At the end of the space, there is a dazzling light. All the sounds here become silent, and even the images are swallowed up by the pure light.
In the complete silence, Qing Keisuke stretched out his hand to hold Hoshino's hand, and waved his hand to cut through the thin barrier of the pure realm in front of him.
"Click——"
The light curtain shattered like glass, and at this moment, a fresh mountain breeze blew towards their faces.
"ah……"
Hoshino's heart began to beat involuntarily.
What appeared in front of her was a clear and boundless lake, wading quietly in the middle of the mountains, reflecting the pure sky above, and the gentle breeze stirred up gentle, golden blue waves.
"jingle--"
She heard the crisp sound of wind chimes and the faint rustling of grass blades disturbed by the wind.
In a trance, she seemed to have returned to the dream of falling asleep with her weeping son in her arms, and then fell into the tranquil beauty of the lake again. All the depression, fear, and worry were all blown away by the breeze at this moment.
The soul is so clear that it almost merges with the world.
"President."
But the next moment, Qing Keisuke's voice suddenly sounded, and Hoshino subconsciously looked down.
At this time, she realized that her legs had been immersed in the lake water at some point, and she was just a hair away from being swallowed by the lake water.
But her wrist was grabbed by a strong hand behind her, preventing her from moving forward again.
"ah!"
She came back to her senses completely, and the lake water that originally felt warm turned freezing cold in an instant, but it only took a moment before she was forcefully pulled out of the lake by Qing Keisuke.
Pale flames ignited from her feet, and Xingye didn't feel any warmth or harm at all. The flames just gently burned away the lake water on her body.
"Do you like playing with water so much, President?"
Hoshino raised his head when he heard the words, and Aoi Keisuke was looking down at her, with the same disgusting smile on his lips as always.
But no matter how disgusted she was, she couldn't deny the beauty of this face.
Especially after the changes outside the pure realm, Aoi Keisuke's body has become even more feminine and beautiful, making it difficult for people to look away.
But Hoshino did not indulge in this beauty. She just stared at Qing Keisuke's face and said in a determined and cold tone: "Are you using me to test the pure realm?"
——Qing Keisuke could definitely stop her earlier.
"It's so hurtful to say such things, President."
"Were you hurt?"
"Ha, just a little bit."
When they fell back to the lake, Hoshino hit Keisuke Aoi hard on the chest.
"I'm not so weak that I need to take advantage of you, President." Qing Keisuke let go of her wrist and explained with a smile.
Hoshino pursed her lips, and Qing Keisuke's unspoken words silenced her.
"You speak so loudly that you can't even do your job as a bodyguard!"
