The sharp whistle of a whip came from inside the cave again.
A strong wind carried thick dust and came with murderous intent.
Kamiyagawa, who had been on guard for a long time, used the breath of Ah Hum to coordinate his body and nimbly avoid the wind blade.
"There is so much resentment and murderous intention. I originally thought he would be an overseer who could be brought back to Aokigahara or something."
Those who come are not good.
Unlike Shikijiro, who was so numb and ignorant that he would not react at all when seeing a living person like Kamiyagawa, what came out of the abandoned mine later was a powerful and hostile monster.
Generally speaking, in remote and desolate areas, there is a probability of powerful ghost stories happening.
The most typical example is the former Ouri Island.
On a remote island, there are actually three B-level ghost stories, and they have not been noticed by the official exorcists for a long time.
It’s not incomprehensible that this would happen.
For example, the core strength of the countermeasures room is mainly concentrated near several major metropolitan areas in Japan, with little regard for remote areas. Unless a major supernatural event occurs, the countermeasures room's attention will be attracted there.
As for the three B-level ghost tales on Ouri Island, the eight-foot-tall girl among them behaves in a low-key manner and will not take the initiative to come into contact with humans.
The remaining red rays and anglers were glued together to form a composite god. Their needs were incense and human child sacrifices.
The number of zhi sacrifices may require one during the annual fishing period.
There have always been believers of red stingrays on Ouri Island, and the impact brought by red stingrays is much smaller than that of the same level of malignant monsters. This is why the official has not noticed the small place of Ouri Island for a long time.
The same is true for the deep mountains of Bie Tongzi Mountain where the Divine Valley is now located.
It is already very remote and sparsely populated.
According to the local spirit exorcist Ai Saotome, there have never been any supernatural incidents.
It belongs to an area where no official jurisdictional attention has been paid.
It is possible that there are powerful ghost stories that have never caused a major disaster for some reason.
Kamiyagawa is wary of this and will not take it lightly.
Buzzing.
The phone vibrated, and "Kaitan Monogatari" gave the basic information about the encounter with the monster——
[The foreign visit catalog has been updated.]
[Name of the ghost story: Monster King of Dust Tomb]
[Grade: C grade]
[Status: Visiting (the seal is loose)]
[Interview progress: 100%]
"It's just C-level, okay. But what does the loose seal mean? This is the first time I've seen such a note."
After receiving the message, Kamiyagawa relaxed a little.
The Monster King of Dust Tomb.
It seems that this is the originator of the whip style in Bie Tongzi Mountain.
The Monster King of the Dust Tomb, as the name suggests, is a ghost story formed when dust accumulates into a mountain.
The usual image is described as a monster with a huge body, a crown on its head, wide eyes, an animal skin skirt tied around its waist, and the appearance of the king of monsters.
According to legend, when this kind of ghost appears in people's homes, it will wreak havoc in places where dust accumulates, speed up the aging of items, and take pleasure in destroying items in the home as revenge for excessive dust accumulation in the house.
According to this background story, the Monster King of the Dust Tomb prefers monsters that are less harmful to humans.
They are mainly strange stories created to remind people to pay attention to home hygiene.
But there are other kinds of stories about the Monster King of the Dust Tomb. Toriyama Shiyan described this kind of monster in "Hundred Utensils in vain" as follows: "There are many things in the world, and everything with form has its own strength. Shang Lin is the leader of the beast.
"The phoenix is the head of the bird, and the strange king of Chenzhong is the head of the mountain grandmother born from dust."
The king of beasts is the unicorn, the king of birds is the phoenix, and the monster king of dust tombs transformed from accumulated dust is the king of mountain aunts.
According to documentary records, there was indeed a saying among Japanese folk that the Monster King of the Dust Tomb was a kind of Shan Lao.
The Monster King of Dust Tombs encountered in Kamiya River appears in the mountains, and there is a high probability that it will be biased towards the latter.
Phew! Pa!
The whip wind mixed with thick dust in the mine struck again.
This time Kamiyagawa did not take the initiative to hide.
Beside him, Mary's red and black dress swayed out, and the bloody red mist surged out, meeting the whip wind.
The fog and sand collided, and the strange wind died down instantly.
At the same time, Prajna and Inugami also appeared.
In the dense forest above the head, there is also a transformed whale holding a conch in his hand, sitting on the back of a skeletal whale spirit, floating up and down, with little blue lights shining.
"I have a very small temper...I launched an attack with such murderous intent without saying a word. I can't be polite to you."
Kamitani River itself also draws its sword and attaches it to Yang Lei.
A transparent and dark ghost arm appeared on his right hand.
Snap, snap.
There were footsteps coming from the entrance of the cave.
From this distance, Kamiya could already see the appearance of the enemy with the help of his slightly shrunken pupils.
It was a man in ragged clothes, skinny and stiff. His appearance was actually somewhat similar to the batch of Shikijiro who had just been taken away.
The difference is that this humanoid's hair style is Tsukiyo.
This is a hairstyle that only traditional samurai would wear.
"warrior?"
Kamiyakawa was slightly confused.
He saw a damaged sword stuck in the warrior's chest.
The broken blade protruded from his back.
And at the gap created by the incomplete knife, wind and sand were constantly pouring out, making a sound like the whipping of a whip.
The strange atmosphere that I felt just now also spread out from there.
"I seem to understand what 'the seal is loose' means." Kamiyagawa clenched his fist and said, "Go ahead!"
…
"Ouch!"
The Inugami, bathed in fire, was the first to rush out and pounce on the samurai-shaped skeleton.
But just as the big mouth was about to bite the warrior, a strange light flashed from the broken blade on the warrior's chest.
The enemy's figure instantly dissipated and reappeared two meters away.
Inugami pounced on nothing.
He was also hit by the wind of a whip carrying yellow sand, and his back and abdomen seemed to have been sliced open with a sharp knife, leaving two bloody gashes.
The Monster King of the Dust Tomb, or that warrior, showed unexpected abilities.
However, it is really unrealistic for a Kaidan who is only C-level and in a very strange state to be able to defeat Kamiya with this little skill.
"Mary, behind you."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The red and black dress is swaying, the heavy machete is raised high, and the blade is cold and shining.
The skeleton warrior used that strange "flash" to shake the Inugami away. As soon as he landed, Mary appeared behind him simultaneously.
The red mist boils and oscillates, creating circles of ripples.
The bloody blade fell with enough power to distort space.
The incomplete sword on the chest of the skeletal warrior once again flashed with a strange light, and his figure instantly disappeared, reappearing two meters away.
This move can dodge an unsuspecting Inugami, but this time it is Aragami Marie who launches the attack.
Even if the blade of the blade does not hit directly, the distance of only two meters is enough to reach the enemy just by roaring out the red mist with the machete like a rainbow penetrating the sun.
Bang.
A piece of blood mist solidified, and as an extension of the blade, it chased out and slashed hard on the back of the skeleton warrior.
As soon as the blow hit, the haggard Xingzheng's body actually made a dull sound like metal and stone colliding.
The warrior froze and fell to the ground.
"Have you had enough of your tricks?"
Kamiyagawa cooperates with the slender Prajna in the jealous mask state to attack simultaneously.
Prajna's purple and white undergarments fluttered, and the grotesque black claws held down the fallen warrior's head.
A large amount of white greasy powder was shaking off around her, fighting against the wind and sand that constantly poured out from the gap in the warrior's chest and back.
Kamiya's pupils condensed sharply, his eyes sparkled, he seized the opportunity, and stabbed down the words in his hand from top to bottom!
The indigo-colored blade was filled with ferocious thunder, sputtering out dazzling arcs of electricity.
A word penetrated the warrior's back and opened the strange gap where the wind and sand leaked out.
Phew! Pa!
With a single word running through the back and belly of the samurai.
A more violent whip wind swept out from the warrior's violently twitching body.
A twisted human face appeared in the constantly churning wind and sand.
And that person's face was being pierced by a word, and was being eroded and burned by the ferocious sun's thunder. It seemed to be in extreme pain, and it aroused the wind and dust to roar and scream.
"Woo-"
The transformed whale watching the battle overhead played the conch horn, commanding the whereabouts of a whale spirit, and applied [Whale Bone Shield] to his own Onmyoji.
The pale white whale bone shield enveloped the Kamiya River in the center of the wind and sand in time, making the Dust Tomb Monster King's near-death counterattack unable to achieve any effect.
At the same time, Mary also spread the red mist, surrounding Prajna and Inugami.
Amidst the low sound of the conch horn, Zashiki rang the bell.
[The Monster King of the Dust Tomb has died and received 678 soul crystals!]
The dust has settled.
…
The battle ended quickly, taking only a few minutes.
After the death of the Monster King of the Dust Tomb, in addition to the soul crystal, a piece of C-level Monster Blood was drawn out by the [Candle Maker Monk's Blood Pump].
With Kamiyagawa's current strength, dealing with a C-level ghost story is really difficult.
After a battle, Inugami suffered a little superficial injury.
Wait until the sandstorm outside the mine subsides.
Kamiya looked towards the place where the Monster King of the Dust Tomb had just died, and saw that the originally thin body of a warrior had turned into a pool of fishy and unpleasant blood.
Some tattered clothes and the mutilated knife were still on the ground.
"Seal..."
Kamiyagawa dusted himself off and walked towards the samurai's relics.
He could already roughly guess what happened here.
According to Saotome Ai, the local spirit exorcist I met before, whip wind blew in Betsuko Mountain during the Meiji era, killing and injuring many miners.
Now it is basically certain that the source of this strange wind is the Monster King of the Dust Tomb.
Ms. Saotome also said that the whip wind disappeared within a certain period of time, and nothing strange happened again after leaving Tongzi Mountain.
Then maybe the warrior who becomes a zombie is the one who can deal with the whip wind.
This unknown warrior may have found the Monster King of the Dust Tomb in the mountains and fought with him. Although he did not directly defeat the monster, he finally used his own body and the strange and incomplete sword to defeat him.
The Monster King of Dust Tomb was sealed.
It seems that there was a very tragic retreat battle in Bie Tongzi Mountain a long time ago, but to this day no one remembers or knows about it.
And after a hundred years, the warrior's original seal may no longer be strong.
Coupled with Kamiya's act of lighting the requiem candle at the entrance of the cave, the Monster King of the Dust Tomb who was trapped in the abandoned mine was stimulated and woke up.
"So the reason why the strange king wakes up is probably because of me. But it doesn't matter if it is solved, once and for all. I also did good deeds and accumulated virtues, and solved a hidden danger in Bie Tongzi Mountain."
Kamiyagawa looked at the samurai's relics on the ground and picked up the incomplete sword.
"Is there anything special about this thing? It can seal the C-level Monster King of the Dust Tomb. Moreover, I always feel that it was this sword that just appeared with the withered body of the warrior."
I just got the broken knife.
The originally shattered blade shattered with a snap, and metal fragments covered with rust fell to the ground, along with some blue-gray color and seemingly unusual powdery ash.
"These things are... war ashes?"
Kamiya had held Oda Nobunaga's war ashes, so he knew what this special tempered weapon material looked like.
He carefully collected the powder on the ground.
[Get the ashes of war and the blade heart of Ittosai!]
[Ittosai's Blade Heart (super epic material): The powerful swordsman Ito Ittosai during the Warring States Period, the battle ashes left behind after his death.]
[Although Ito Ittosai never called himself "Itto-ryu", he was the founder and founder of Itto-ryu swordsmanship. He studied under Zhongmaki Zisai and learned the "wonderful sword", "wonderful sword", "garuda"
The true inheritance of swordsmanship such as "King's Sword". In addition, he innovatively developed the unique trick "Fusha Sword". Other tricks include "Blade Yin", "Xiang Xiaodachi", "Escape", "Wuxian Sword", etc.]
[Ittosai traveled through various countries and competed with famous swordsmen from various countries for a total of thirty-three times, without losing any of them. He was the strongest swordsman except for the two sword masters Tsukahara Buden and Kamizumi Nobutsuna during the Warring States Period.]
[Therefore, the war ashes born after Ito Ittosai's death carry extraordinary sword power. Forging the war ashes onto the weapon will give him unexpected abilities.]
[Note that the final effect of the war ash ability is not only related to the weapon and the quality of the war ash, but also the skill level of the forging craftsman is an extremely important variable factor!]
"Itō Ittousai? The great swordsman who pioneered the Ittōsai style in history. No wonder he was ashes of war."
Kamiyagawa carefully read the introductory information on "Kaidan Monogatari".
In this way, the sword held by the unknown warrior who sealed the Monster King of the Dust Tomb was an extraordinary weapon blessed by the battle ash of Itosai.
"The sword war ash is adapted to Ichimonji. By the way, after the war ash is forged into the weapon, is there any possibility of taking it out again..."
Kamiya thought wildly and carefully put away the ashes of Ittousai's battle.
This special trophy must be taken to Gao Tianyuan to find Sister Jue for further research.
"Gouzi." Kamiyagawa then called to Inugami again, pointed to the ground, and said, "Dig a hole."
Inujiro:……
Kamiyagawa buried all the remains of the unknown samurai and piled a small cenotaph outside the mine.
The pit was then filled in again.
After doing all this, he stood in front of the tomb and bowed seriously.
The Monster King of Dust Tomb was retreated from Kamiya River, and this unknown senior samurai should be able to rest in peace.
Moreover, if this senior had taken it as his mission to eradicate Kaitan during his lifetime, then Kamiya felt that he would probably be happy to hand over the Ittōsai war ashes he held to him.
If you're not happy, well... people have been dead for hundreds of years, so how could they not be happy?
After a simple worship, Kamiyagawa called back the shikigami, called out the little old man and planned to return the same way.
"Aba whining! Aba whining!"
As soon as the little old man appeared, he was gesticulating to his master, extremely excited.
He seemed to be reporting on the situation at the hearse group.
"Speak slowly, I can't understand that much." Kamiyakawa listened carefully for a while, with an expression of surprise on his face, "Wait a minute...what do you mean? You said that Obara has evolved!?"
