Kyoto is indeed looking for various ways to resist Haiguo's army. Lord Ara, the divine envoy of Gao Tianyuan, has also arrived here, but Ara seems to be very cold.
For her long-cherished wish, Tamamo Mae had already entered the place of trial, but was hindered by Ara.
"You all know about the death of my wife and children, right?" The great demon Tamamae walked in the illusory space, approaching Huang step by step.
Huang said calmly: "Their fate has already been determined."
"Just watching and doing nothing, is this the mission of the gods?" Tamamo-mae has never liked these guys who call themselves gods, and she doesn't understand why the people at the shrine are so loyal to them.
Human beings say that gods are gentle. But his wife was killed by thunder, and their children did not receive any help from the gods. Is it also called gentleness to let people die in such a cold way?
"That's ridiculous." Tamamo Mae stopped walking.
"What is destiny?" Tamamo's whole body was glowing, and the evil spirit was filling the air, gradually spreading and filling the entire illusory space.
"Destiny is unknowable and cannot be changed." Huang remained indifferent.
"But you are a person who sees destiny, can't you change it?" A portal began to appear around Tamamo Mae, which was the real door to hell.
"It's not that we choose destiny, it's destiny that chooses us." Huang responded.
"What if I have to change?" Tamamo Mae took one last look at the so-called god, and then stepped into the place of trial.
Huang: "Heaven's course is constant, and all things follow the course of heaven. That place is very dangerous, and I'm afraid there will be no return."
…
In the dark darkness, an evil spirit suddenly rushed towards Tamamo. Before it could touch him, the evil spirit was entangled in fox fire and made a shrill scream in anger.
So, one after another, finally groups of evil spirits surged up to Tamamo Mae's feet like a sea tide, trying to drag him into the abyss of death.
Tamamo Mae found that her demon power was gradually weakening, and the evil spirit was no longer afraid of the burning fox fire.
Huang said that this place was very dangerous, but it wasn't the evil spirits here, it turned out to be the space that would absorb his power.
"Chiyo, Hagoromo, Aika..."
When the demon's power was about to be exhausted, Tamamo Mae concentrated the fox fire to burn a way forward among the evil spirits. The longing for his wife and children made him unwilling to give in.
…
"Finally...finally...welcome home."
His wife and children were abandoned by heaven, and their souls were banished here after death. After Tamamo-mae went through many trials, their family was finally reunited.
The soul power of his wife and children gradually flows towards Tamamo, and no evil ghost can get even half a step closer to them.
The weak Tamamo felt the warmth of being surrounded by his family, a feeling he thought he would never feel again.
"I have always believed that no matter how long it takes, you will find us." Another voice that did not belong to him sounded from the depths of Tamamo Mae's soul. It was Chiyo's will.
"Chiyo..." Suddenly, the softness in Tamamo Mae's heart was touched.
Chiyo: "I know, your fox fire burned down Kyoto, but that is not your true intention, that is not the Tamamo-mae I know."
"Onmyoji should pay with blood..." When Tamamo Mae thought of this, the anger surged in his heart.
Chiyo reassured: "Hagoromo and Aika, as long as they are still in this world, they will encounter disaster sooner or later. Our enemy is not the visible person, but the invisible fate."
Tamamo was silent: "Destiny..."
"I saw the tragic ending, just like what happened to you back then." Tamamo Mae murmured to himself.
Chiyo: "Then we have to fight with it. Don't worry, you don't have to face everything alone anymore."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chiyo, Hagoromo and Aika all fell asleep.
The strange sound of the flute echoed in Tamamo Mae's ears. He gently put his hands on himself. At this time, he was completely different from the past.
Ripples appeared in the illusory space, a portal appeared at a high place, and a figure appeared forcefully, looking at Huang indifferently.
In the distance, Huang subconsciously asked: "Is this?"
"It is better to praise it from heaven than to control it and use it."
Immediately, Tamamo stepped out of the trial place, and an inexplicable sound echoed here and lingered for a long time.
He responded with silence.
…
In the open Demon Field, countless monsters were wandering around, and their wailing sounds stung Tamamo Mae's ears.
This place was originally a deserted place, and monsters gathered because of the evil spirit. The scene at this moment actually surprised Tamamo Mae.
"Those dirty sea monsters have already been to the Demonic Plains, haven't they?"
Tamamo Mae asked the little fox following him to leave first so as not to be affected. He walked slowly among the reeds, looking at the monsters that were riddled with holes and struggling to survive.
If it was just a bloody killing and not such a tragic scene, what on earth did the Siren do in the Demonic Plains?
Maybe this kind of thing doesn't just happen here.
Tamamo Mae waved his hand and pushed away the monsters blocking the way, and kept walking, and kept walking... After passing through the entire field of encounters with monsters, he stood on a hillside and looked back.
The fox fire ignited quietly on the monsters, and they glowed like stars in the sky, and finally disappeared at the end of the plain.
The time of evil has passed, and the dark night has come.
Tamamo looked at the mirror in front of him. This was the mirror he brought back from the trial zone of heaven. He had only heard about it before, but today he saw the power of the artifact.
He learned from the prophecy that the powerful artifact was split into two, and half of the mirror fell outside of heaven, and someone needed to find it as soon as possible.
The mirror suspended in mid-air changed in front of Tamamo, reflecting the owner of the eight-foot jade sword, Otakemaru.
"I see, it seems that it knows its goal very well." Tamamo Mae smiled slightly.
After waking up for a while, the mirror immediately returned to sleep.
The evening breeze blew by, and everything became calm again.
…
"Tamazo Mae? Why did you come to me?"
No one has ever been able to find the hiding place of the man in purple, but Tamamo Mae appeared in front of him.
The man in purple said quietly: "As you can see, my strength has weakened to this point... I have no value to you."
It turned out that it was because the purple man, the master of the Black Night Mountain, was weak that he did not dare to become an enemy of Otakemaru, instead of fighting cowardly.
Tamamo-mae smiled, sat down and poured a glass for the man in purple.
This was his and Kuzu Ye's favorite wine. There wasn't much left, so he kept it all.
To Tamamo Mae, this person seemed like an old friend he knew, and he couldn't help but recall those precious memories from the past.
It was one of the few times when he could take off his disguise, and the troubles in the world seemed to have nothing to do with him.
