Outside the boundary of Qinglong East Gate, not far away is the Yachuan River. At this moment, the water is surging and rising all over the sky.
Lord of Arakawa!
As expected, the commander felt a chill in his heart. When the blue-clothed figure appeared on the top of the waves, he could not calm down. Although he had expected it, he still had a trace of fantasy in his heart, but now that thought is gone.
With the appearance of the Lord of Arakawa, it was broken, like a bubble bursting.
The commander gave the death order, defended to the end, and persisted to the end. It was the same approach as the Xuanwu Barrier, trying to keep the barrier unbroken, but this was the only way.
The Onmyoji who came to support from the three major families tried their best, even at the expense of exhausting their spiritual power, to defend the Blue Dragon Barrier.
Compared to the stubborn defense in Kyoto, the attack by the Kraken in Arakawa was extremely ferocious and fearless of death.
The Lord of Arakawa held a folding fan, and the black demonic power flowed on the folding fan. He condensed the water into a fish shape and launched an attack.
Boom! Bang...
The Qinglong barrier was attacked, and the light curtain flickered and was crumbling. Many of the Onmyoji who were supporting the magic circle in the barrier were impacted, and their spiritual energy backfired, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
Kyoto was in a hurry, and the onmyojis hurriedly took over and maintained the barrier. Generally speaking, they still managed to withstand this wave of attacks.
The commander sighed lightly, if he continued like this, he might not even be able to survive till dawn.
Not only the Xuanwu barrier, but also the Qinglong barrier was attacked by monsters. The other two barriers were also attacked by monsters at the same time.
At the White Tiger Barrier at the west gate of Kyoto, a two-faced monster led all the monsters to attack the barrier. For a moment, a lightning hurricane struck, as terrifying as the world was annihilated.
And at the Suzaku Gate in the south, a cold figure of a girl is summoning a blizzard. The girl is surrounded by a circle of ice crystal shields. Even the Onmyoji standing far away feel the bone-chilling chill.
The snowball fell from the sky and landed on the barrier light curtain, causing ripples. The ordinary guards in the barrier were all cold. They were not as powerful as the Onmyojis and did not have the spiritual power to withstand the wind and cold. Their faces were covered with frost.
.
The figure that looks like a snow maiden seems to freeze people if touched. The girl raises her hands and feet, calling for wind and rain, and the sky is covered with snow and frost, which seems to be the ancient snow that freezes everything.
Inside the Cabinet Room.
The master of the pavilion was pacing back and forth, losing his composure. The four walls of Kyoto were under fierce attack. How could he not panic?
Pavilion Master: "Has the support from the three major families, the school, and the palace arrived?"
The black shadow guard stood behind him and answered: "All the active guards in the palace have been deployed to the four wards. The power of the academy is also being deployed. People from the three major families have also arrived, but the heads of the clans have not yet...
…”
The Pavilion Master turned around, narrowed his eyes, stared at the guard, and said one word: "Speak!"
"No action has been taken yet!" The guard's heart trembled and he responded decisively.
The pavilion master closed his eyes. The next moment, when he opened his eyes again, his face had returned to normal, but his eyes were terrifyingly cold. He walked out of the hall quickly, leaving only a sound.
"Send a message to the three major families, Xuanwu Gate, White Tiger Gate, and Suzaku Gate. Even if they die together, they must keep it, otherwise..."
The master of the pavilion left the hall and immediately called out the shadow guards hidden in the palace. There were not many people, but they were all elites among the elites. This group of secretly trained shadow guards, even high-level onmyojis,
With the cooperation of their battle formations, it would be difficult for them to survive.
This is the last strength. If he still can't hold on, then there is really nothing he can do.
The Pavilion Master led the black shadow guards and rushed to the Azure Dragon Barrier.
It's late at night, and under the night sky, Kyoto is shrouded in darkness at this moment. Facing crises from all sides, no one knows what will happen next.
The Fujiwara family received the news and did not dare to delay any longer. The clan leader led the family warriors and onmyojis to the nearest White Tiger Gate barrier to guard the capital together with the guards.
The same goes for the Kamo family, who rushed to the nearest Xuanwu Gate.
Only the last Suzaku Gate is left. Some of the monsters there have broken through the defensive line and started killing without restraint. Many of the guards have been poisoned.
The scene was chaotic and bloody, with pieces of flesh, mutilated limbs, heads... and painful screams all converging into a desolate and tragic picture.
The leader wields a knife to kill demons, his eyes are red, and his robes of life and death are the best of a group of brothers.
Damn monster, you should kill! Ah! Kill...
…
After a while, suddenly, there was a noise from the crowd in the distance, support came?!
The commander turned around, yes, it was reinforcements. But, which family did this belong to? Looking at the flag and family emblem, he didn't think of it for a moment, forget it, don't care, let's defend the city first.
The Genji family is in a secret place.
Minamoto no Yorimitsu has a stern face and cold eyes, as if he is angry. He is a hawkish onmyoji with great ambitions. It can be said that as long as he achieves his goal, he will do whatever it takes.
The conservative forces within Genji actually have ulterior motives!
Facing the crisis in Kyoto, the Genji family had internal disputes. As a hawk, he proposed to destroy the monsters and protect Kyoto.
Also, for the sake of Genji's glory, we absolutely cannot place our hopes on praying for that evil power.
The centenary sacrifice is coming, and those die-hard old guys actually do this.
He had the intention to kill the demons and protect the city, but was unable to do so, and now he was naturally angry.
As the leader of the clan, I can't do anything, which is really annoying.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is in charge of everything in the clan. In fact, he himself does not have much power at all. Without the support of the family, there are only a few who can follow him. There is a sense of desolation in Minamoto norimitsu's eyes.
Just a little bit closer!
As long as this work is completed, any evil god or monster will be vulnerable to a single blow!
He faced the person on the high platform in the distance, his eyes glowing with renewed enthusiasm, like the most devout believer.
…
The battle to defend Kyoto lasted until dawn.
At dawn, the light of dawn came. That was the dawn of hope. The people who fought bloody battles in Qinglongmen stopped. The entire city guard was filled with sea water, and powerless wails came one after another. Qianchen saw devastation everywhere and everything was in ruins.
The Lord of Arakawa retreated and left!
The head of the palace cabinet received news from the remaining three boundaries, and the big demons everywhere also retreated!
Fortunately.
The people who survived the disaster began to search for the seriously injured survivors, treat the injured, and rebuild the city. This was the most urgent priority.
When Qianchen arrived at the Qinglong Barrier in the middle of the night, the barrier was already on the verge of being breached. Not long after, the barrier was destroyed and the sea monster attacked the city. Qianchen rushed forward without hesitation and defended the barrier with the defenders.
Afterwards, the cabinet chief arrived and new troops joined. They felt much more relaxed and finally held on.
The Pavilion Master did not participate in the battle to defend the city because he blocked the Lord of Arakawa. Both sides had no choice but to stop and enter into a confrontation until dawn, when the Lord of Arakawa retreated.
After all, defending the city has the advantage of geographical location, and the attacking side must have suffered more serious damage. Qianchen doesn't know the specific reason, but it was defended anyway.
At this time, the news spread that the remaining three barriers in Kyoto were also defended, and everyone was relieved.
