Tamamo Mae's explanation allowed Lu Xiao to connect all the clues. No wonder Modu was hiding in Japan. It turned out that he had already reached a deal with the local snakes.
"Modo promised to help Abe Shunkichi seize the throne of the Onmyoji Association president, and Abe Shunkichi would help Modo capture Kama Taj in return?"
"Yes."
Tamamo nods and says: "According to Shunji himself, if we can help Modo win the position of Supreme Mage, the status of the Onmyoji Association that provides him with important help will naturally rise."
Lu Xiao and Yongzhen looked at each other, and their expressions became a little strange.
"The Onmyoji Association, which has gone through internal purges, wants to overthrow Karma Taj? Who gives him the courage?"
Although most of Karma Taj's mystics are useless when facing a cosmic overlord of Dormammu's level, in the mysterious world of the earth, Karma Taj's leadership position is unshakable at all.
The existence of the three major temples first laid the foundation of Kama Taj, and correspondingly, a large number of mystics filled the branches and leaves of the bare tree trunks.
Lu Xiao has not directly dealt with the Onmyoji Association, but there are also some mystics from Japan in Kama Taj, and they are very familiar with the current situation of Onmyoji in their country.
It’s not that Lu Xiao deliberately belittled Japan. The meager resources of this small island country alone are not enough to raise an important mysterious organization.
If the Onmyoji Association can look "Westward" as resolutely as the Japanese government and maintain an open attitude to the outside world, it may still be able to occupy a place in an increasingly internationalized world.
Being in isolation will only make you more self-contained. The Japanese mystic master of Karma Taj always looks like he hates iron when he talks about his own onmyoji.
According to their evaluation, the entire Japanese Onmyoji combined cannot even break through the defense of the Hong Kong Temple.
According to the information provided by Tamamo Mae, Mordo has indeed obtained the power of the devil, and his strength has grown by leaps and bounds.
But it is impossible for him alone to lead a group of pig teammates. If Modu has no other backup, Lu Xiao's evaluation of his vision will further decline.
'Backhand, Mephisto?'
Lu Xiao had a headache thinking about the big devil who liked to hide behind his back and watch the show.
He is not afraid of head-on battles. With multiple Infinity Stones in hand, it shouldn't be a big problem to defeat Mephisto who has left Hell's home court, let alone Mordo.
What worries him most is the contract between Mordo and Mephisto.
'I hope Modu still has his sense and doesn't sign the worst kind of contract.'
…
The information provided by Tamamo Mae was very useful. Under the expectant gaze of this peerless beauty, Lu Xiao nodded to Yongzhen.
"Take her, so you can get another shikigami with great potential."
The legendary Tamamo Mae had nine tails in his heyday and was able to fight an army of more than 100,000 people on his own.
In Tamamo's gritted teeth description, Lu Xiao and Yongzhen learned the reasons why she was sealed here.
At the end of the Heian period when Tamamo Mae was active, Abe Seimei, known as Japan's number one onmyoji, had already passed away.
However, the powerful soul of Seimei has not completely dissipated. In order to protect the future of the Abe family, he resides in a dormant state deep in the souls of each generation of family heirs.
Once faced with a problem that the current head of the family cannot solve, Qingming's soul will be awakened by stress and temporarily control the bodies of his descendants to solve the problem.
Tamamo Mae did not hide her misdeeds when she was "young". At that time, she was not as steady as she is now.
Tamamo Mae, who was very playful, brought Emperor Toba's court into chaos. Even Emperor Toba himself suffered from a strange disease due to the evil spirit raging in the palace.
Abe Seimei’s 5th generation grandson, Abe Yasuchika, was the court onmyoji at that time. Among Seimei’s many descendants, Yasuchika Abe was considered to be the one with the most outstanding ability.
He exposed Tamamo Mae's true face and expelled Tamamo Mae from the palace by virtue of his powerful onmyoji skills.
If it were just like this, Tamamo Mae wouldn't hate Abe Seimei to the core.
After the Battle of Nasuno, Tamamo Mae's strength was greatly reduced, and she has since blended into civilian life incognito. Having learned her lesson, she no longer intends to cause harm to the world, and just wants to live a peaceful life.
But the Onmyoji of the Abe clan still didn't intend to let her go.
On the eve of the Battle of Sekigahara, Tamamo Mae, who was hiding his identity and living in Edo Castle, was discovered by the Onmyoji of the Abe family.
At that time, Tamamo-mae's strength was not as good as before. Her nine-tails were cut off in the Battle of Nasuno, and it took a hundred years of rebuilding to barely restore her three-tails.
Even so, Onmyoji, who had begun to decline at that time, was no match for her.
Just when Tamamo Mae was about to win, the head of the Abe family, who was facing a desperate situation, accidentally awakened Seimei's sleeping soul.
Seimei, who briefly regained consciousness, personally suppressed Tamamo-mae and sealed her in the Satokanda Shrine built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi with the help of the Onmyoji Association.
For more than 400 years, Tamamo-mae has been imprisoned in the shrine, unable to leave.
Her temper was gradually smoothed out, and she became the gentle lady she is now, but Tamamo Mae never gave up the idea of escaping from the shrine.
Abe Shunkichi thought that no one knew about his meeting with Modo, but the location where the two secretly talked at that time was next to this remote well. Tamamo Mae, who was hiding in the well and studying, heard the conversation clearly.
.
The three-tailed Tamamo no mae did not have the astonishing strength that the Kyuubi had during the Kyuubi period, but years of secret study and hidden training allowed her to learn a lot of Onmyoji's spells. In terms of the application of one of the "jutsu", she is better than the Kyuubi who only knows how to overwhelm people with force.
It has become much stronger over time.
If Fenrir is a shikigami specializing in physical attacks, then Tamamo Mae is a well-rounded type who prefers spell attacks.
In order for Tamamo Mae to regain his freedom, he must first destroy the earth-bound seal set by Seimei.
After more than 400 years of watching, Tamamo Mae has long found the core location of the seal.
"Right at our feet."
Tamamozamae knelt down elegantly and gently brushed the ground with her white and tender jade hands. The five-pointed star pattern commonly used by Onmyoji gradually appeared in front of Lu Xiao and Yongzhen.
"I tried many methods to break the seal, but this seal was originally targeted at me, and all methods to break it failed to work."
"Qiang!"
Lu Xiao popped out the hidden sword with the magic-breaking effect and looked up at Tamamo Mae: "Once the seal is broken, the resulting changes will be immediately noticed by the Onmyoji."
"You clean up this place first, and immediately sign a contract with Yongzhen after the seal is broken. I will open the portal at the same time and leave the Uto Shrine before a large number of Onmyoji arrive."
More than 400 years of imprisonment were finally coming to an end. Tamamo Mae suppressed his excitement and cast a spell to gather together a large number of books on the bookshelf. Yongzhen temporarily put all the ancient books into the Demon Refining Pot for Tamamo Mae.
After confirming that everything was ready, Lu Xiao thrust the hidden sword into the pentagram seal on the ground.
"Pa~"
A crisp cracking sound sounded, and the blue pentagram pattern cracked from it, and the earth-bound seal that bound Tamamo was finally released.
Lu Xiao raised his hand and opened the portal to his new home in Minato District. Yongzhen and Tamamozen also joined hands and signed the contract.
"Walk!"
After sending the two people into the portal, Lu Xiao activated the power of the Reality Stone, and the scene in the secret space in front of Tamamo immediately changed.
From the perspective of others, this place is just an ordinary bottom of a well. They cannot see the interlocking rune arrays that Lu Xiao deliberately set up on the four walls and underground.
When a young, feminine-looking Onmyoji arrived with a large number of subordinates, Lu Xiao and the others had already left the scene.
The feminine young man knelt down to inspect the damaged earth-bound seal, and cursed in a low voice anxiously: "Damn it! You actually let the great demon who was sealed by ancestor Qingming escape, who did it?!"
The onmyoji who was responsible for trying to persuade Lu Xiao and Yong Zhen to retreat opened his mouth, but because he was worried that he would be implicated, he finally chose to remain silent.
