Kayako advanced step by step, and Xu Yi felt the entire space begin to twist, the chilling aura like tiny insects wanting to burrow into his body.
"I'm dead! You can't escape! You'll co to keep company in death!" Fick grew increasingly maniacal.
"You think this thing can kill ?" Xu Yi glanced at Fick indifferently.
Blood as Sacred! Full throttle!
A platinum aura surged from Xu Yi's body, and his hair turned the sa platinum color, a sign that he was invoking the power of Blood as Sacred to its full extent.
With a light tap of his finger, the platinum aura transford into a blazing sword of light, enveloping Kayako.
Xu Yi's hair color quickly returned to normal black; he had powered Blood as Sacred to its limits, this ti for only two seconds.
But that was enough ti.
The light faded, and nothing remained in front of him; Fick was dumbfounded that the opponent had instantly vanquished Kayako!
In these past days, he had clashed with Kayako nurous tis and knew how formidable she was; had it not been for "Ash" protecting them, they would likely have died at Kayako's hands.
The supposed "Ash" was actually a mix of the cremated remains of Takeshi and Kobayashi Junsuke, which, after a series of processes, beca an alchemical item capable of disguising their scents.
Takeshi was Kayako's son, and Kobayashi Junsuke was her "moonlight." These two items might be the last remnants of goodness in Kayako's heart.
They had used the Ash to deceive Kayako, escaping her curse.
He had never imagined that soone could eliminate a fragnt of Kayako so cleanly and efficiently!
"Mr. Fick! It's ti to go!" Xu Yi said softly.
Fick started in alarm; how did the other party know his na? But he would no longer have the chance to unravel this mystery.
Xu Yi's palm clenched fiercely, the Holy Fla blazing intensely.
Fick let out a heart-wrenching scream as his soul slowly dissipated within the Holy Fla.
[Entry Devouring initiated, devouring in progress...]
[Acquired "Soul Entry: Deceiver's Soul (Tainted)"]
[Deceiver's Soul:
Trait 1 - Corruption:
A tainted Soul Entry that leads to the corruption of the soul, altering its characteristics; use with extre caution!]
Trait 2 - Purification:
Only after the tainted soul is purified will the corresponding entry level and abilities be revealed.]
Soul Entry? Xu Yi was briefly stunned; this was an entirely new type of entry he had never seen before.
This was clearly a "Three No's" entry: no level, no guarantee, no knowing of the effects.
Blank Entries required constant experience grinding, while Red Ladder Entries were unlocked one after another. The current Soul Entry, without a doubt, needed purification.
"No wonder Fick's soul could withstand the Holy Fla!"
Xu Yi suddenly understood; Fick's soul was extraordinarily special. It was rare for soone to possess such a soul talent, perhaps one in ten million.
Although he did not know the function of this Soul Entry, he presud it must be precious.
Suddenly, Xu Yi turned his head, gazing toward Tokyo. The color of the sky had changed; previously, it was pitch-black, devoid of moonlight and starlight.
But now, a bloody light pierced through the clouds, illuminating the entire Tokyo.
The blood-red clouds began to fall from the sky, as if the heavens were collapsing, each cloud hovering above Tokyo within reach.
Xu Yi's brow furrowed; under each blood cloud, he sensed intense and murky evil thoughts. One could imagine that hordes of Dark Creatures were gathering there.
The blood clouds were clearly man-made; the only ones capable of making such a spectacle were from the Gate Organization.
If it had not been for him and Yukeni, a blood cloud would likely have been floating above this beach as well.
Xu Yi had a sudden insight: if he were part of the Gate Organization, he wouldn't just conduct the ritual in one location. The more "feeding points" for Kayako, the better.
Footsteps sounded, and Yukeni walked over holding a head; this was the woman she had fought earlier, the result of the battle evident without words.
Yukeni stood behind Xu Yi, not ntioning his earlier escape.
That was just a minor episode; she could tell that Xu Yi had his reasons for acting that way.
"I'm planning to leave Japan!" Yukeni looked up at the sky.
The sky was covered with blood clouds, signaling that the organization's plan was in full swing. At this ti, Japan beca extrely dangerous. Compared to the reward promised by the Japanese Governnt, the risk was completely disproportionate.
She was just a "Bounty Hunter," not the guardian deity of Japan, so of course, she chose to leave.
Xu Yi nodded, not surprised by Yukeni's decision. If it weren't for lingering matters, he too would want to leave this haunted place imdiately.
"I'll give you the Sin Remains!" Yukeni glanced indifferently at the Sin Remains on Xu Yi's waist and turned to leave without any hesitation.
Since she had decided to leave Japan, the Sin Remains had lost their significance to her.
Moreover, she had a premonition that if she asked Xu Yi for the Sin Remains, it was very likely that it wouldn't go smoothly.
For a powerful exorcist like Xu Yi, extending a favor was not a bad idea.
"Regal as always! Farewell, Empress!" Xu Yi gave a thumbs up.
The Sin Remains were of great use to him; if she had asked for them, it really would have been troubleso.
"I also need to hurry up and wrap things up!" Xu Yi watched Yukeni leave, then turned and rushed toward the nearest blood cloud.
He had already thought of a way to take the Ghost Samurai with him intact and unhard.
If the plan went well, he could also pick up two more "prizes" on the side.
The nearest blood cloud hovered above a small town. It was deep into the night, a ti when everyone should have been sound asleep. Yet they were all walking out of their hos, looking up at the sky with a frightened gaze at the blood cloud.
A woman in white appeared abruptly on the street, holding an oil-paper umbrella, her head hung low so that no one could see her face clearly.
At first, the residents didn't pay much attention, just found it a bit strange, until they noticed that rain was constantly drizzling around the woman, while elsewhere remained unchanged.
"Rain Woman!" soone suddenly shouted in alarm.
Xu Yi had been learning Japanese for a while and could barely understand. The Rain Woman was a type of Japanese monster said to be a woman who harbored resentnt against her husband.
With the appearance of the Rain Woman, more and more eerie entities appeared in the town.
The Enenra with constantly erging human faces in the grey smoke; the Kappa with bird heads, human bodies, and shells on their backs; various Evil Spirits exuding a strong scent of blood... Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire
Xu Yi looked around and saw no one from the organization.
They must have fled as fast as they could after attracting the surrounding Dark Creatures because this place was about to beco Hell.
"Open!"
Xu Yi looked at the Acacia on his waist; it imdiately opened its petals, more obedient than a pet trained for over ten years.
Underneath the blood cloud, all the monsters imdiately turned their heads in Xu Yi's direction.
They were attracted by an extrely "sweet" scent, but upon arrival, they found the source of the fragrance to be gone, with only a hint of it lingering in the air.
But now that rich fragrance was present again, desire evident on their faces as they surged towards Xu Yi.
A vast procession of monsters followed behind Xu Yi, who looked unphased as they made their way toward the sea.
"Behave, and I'll let you live; otherwise..." Xu Yi unhooked the Acacia from his waist without finishing the sentence, trusting the creature understood.
The petals of the Acacia twitched slightly, as if nodding. In terms of knowing which way the wind was blowing, it had quite the talent.
Xu Yi sliced open his palm, and his glistening blood flowed out. He dropped the blood onto the Acacia's petals, and the "remote detonated bomb" was complete.
Xu Yi returned to the beach he had been at before.
Blood was splashed all over the sand but no bodies to be seen, leaving it unclear whether they were disposed of by Yukeni or devoured by the Eight Monster House.
The sea began to churn, the Eight Monster House reerged, and its tentacles excitedly thrashed, whipping up raging waves.
It was, of course, excited because it caught the scent of that enticing fragrance again.
Xu Yi dodged the chains flung by the Eight Monster House, leapt onto the roof, and casually tossed the Acacia at the Eight Monster House. The Acacia grew a dense network of roots from its base, clinging to the Eight Monster House.
"Hope you enjoy your lovely evening!" Xu Yi jumped down from the Eight Monster House and quickly moved away.
By now, Xu Yi's intentions were quite clear; he was obviously trying to play the role of the "fisherman," watching as the sandpipers and the clams grappled with each other.
The previous battle by the sea had inspired him; he wanted to artificially accelerate the swallowing process of the Ghost Samurai.
Once everything was done, not only would the Ghost Samurai return to its pri condition, but he would also gain control over the Eight Monster House and Monster Hamr.
Although he did not know the origin of the Monster Hamr, he knew that the hamr was far from ordinary.
