Knocking on the door of Pupil Art in Yuanshen

After clearing the barrier of the Arakami, the group returned to the Narukami Grand Shrine in Shadow Mountain and came to the sacred cherry tree where the Yae Godson always lives.

However, for some unknown reason, at such an important juncture, the Eightfold Divine Son was missing from the bottom of the sacred cherry tree.

Fortunately, although she disappeared, she left behind a purple-colored black-framed magic weapon with gold accessories, which was in the shape of a ring.

It is said to be the magical weapon forged by Hu Zhai Palace during his lifetime, the Ring of Bai Chen.

Hua Sanli recognized it at the first sight. It seemed that even though Yae Shenzi was lazy, he still completed the last piece of the puzzle for them.

It is said that Bai Chen's Ring can preserve Hua Sanli's consciousness, but it is not known in what way.

There is also a letter attached.

"Leave it to the little one.

Are you feeling disappointed when you return to the shrine and don’t see the Yae Godson whom you miss so much?

No need to say much, I know it.

In order to sympathize with your mood, Yae Shenzi, who values ​​both beauty and wisdom, specially gave you a royal guard as a souvenir.

On days when you don’t have the Eight Great Masters, you might as well use it to comfort yourself.

Don’t use it for weird things~”

Zhaoyue, who was wearing a shirt, held up the letter, and the handwriting was quite elegant, but the fox's disdain was rushing towards her face.

Sister Yae, what is a strange thing?

I don’t quite understand. Shangshan Zhaoyue tilted her head and looked strange.

Holding the imperial guard with floating pink light spots, Zhaoyue frowned and put it into her pocket.

"Is that eighth-level divine son the only immortal fox left in this world?" Hua Sanli looked at it and felt thoughtful.

"..." Daocheng Yingmei shrank aside, a little ashamed to speak.

Mr. Yazi is good at everything, but his character is not to be praised.

"The Huzhai Palace is like this too, maybe the fairy foxes really all come from the same origin." Unexpectedly, Hua Sanli was not only not surprised, but actually felt nostalgic.

"..." This time, it was Daocheng Yingmei's and Shangshan Zhaoyue's turn to look at each other expressionlessly.

So, is it all a virtue?

They are not fairy foxes, but the fox clan, right?

"Both of you, come with me. The next step is the final barrier. The barrier of uprooting the roots of the sacred cherry tree will complete the ceremony of the Great Sacrifice of the Divine Sakura."

"Do you want to go to the roots of the sacred cherry tree?" Before Daocheng Yingmei left, she looked at the tall and strange sacred cherry tree in the courtyard in a daze.

The crown bush located in the backyard of the shrine is lush and full of life, but unexpectedly the roots have rotted and been invaded by filth.

Accumulated over many years, the evil has even condensed into a huge "tumor" deep in the Shadow Mountain, and now the roots of the sacred cherry are tightly entwined to suppress it.

But this kind of suppression has its limits, just like a dam under the accumulation of floods. It can barely resist in the early stage. When the water volume reaches a certain threshold, the dam is no longer able to compete. The huge flood will destroy it, and tens of thousands of tons of river water will flow.

Rushing, flooding farmland and filling lakes into seas.

Calculated to this point, the entire Narukami Island will probably fall into boundless darkness again.

Although General Lei and Lightning will be there to control the situation, San Fengxing and government officials will be safe, but most ordinary people will probably live or die in uncertainty.

Therefore, Shenying Dazu is a necessary procedure. It will solidify the filth into a form that can be killed, and then it can be removed manually.

The three of them came to the torii gate halfway up the mountain. Looking from here, they could see the deep pool water below, sparkling with purple light.

Under the pool is the final barrier, where the roots of the sacred cherry blossoms are entrenched.

"I will protect you and continue to lift the barrier," Hua Sanli told Daocheng Hotumi, then turned to look at Shangshan Zhaoyue, "When the time comes, please Shangshan, please concentrate on attacking the location of the "tumor"."

"I have no problem." Shangshan Zhaoyue nodded.

"Miss Hua Sanli, please be careful, you are still young..." Daocheng Yingmei's face was a little pale.

She could still hide in the open sea of ​​Kamisato Yashiki, but there was no way to hide here in Kage Mukago Mountain. To deal with the "tumor", Shang Shizuki had to leave the barrier to her.

Upon seeing this, Shangshang Zhaoyue looked away silently. He actually knows the clone technique, but this place is too close to Narukami Grand Shrine. Who knows if Yae Shenzi is peeping. To be honest, he doesn't trust that one too much.

He looks like a very cunning fox.

"Then, I'm going to lift the barrier."

One person in the flower bed stepped forward and began to recite a mantra like a Sanskrit sound, while the other two retreated consciously.

"...As far as the Whale Abyss in the east, the Ember Sea in the west, Yanguang in the south, and Weak Water in the north...Thousands of branches and leaves, please eliminate the disaster."

As she finished her last sentence, the water below seemed to be stirred by something. With the sound of rushing water, it sank at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing the dense cave entrance, with the roots of the sacred cherry blossoms crisscrossing through it.

.

"What's next?" Daocheng Yingmei looked at the bottomless pothole, swallowed, and looked unsteady.

"What else can I do? Dance with confidence and boldness."

Shangshan Zhaoyue rolled her eyes at her, and then jumped down without hesitation. His thin figure faced the entrance of the cave and quickly disappeared in the dense gas.

"Although the roots of the sacred cherry tree are filled with filth, they still know the aura of the person who is the "Great Exorcist" this time. She will ensure that you land safely..."

The flowers were scattered, looking at Daocheng Hotami who was full of fear, and swallowed back the last words that came to her lips, I promise.

"Let me take you down."

"Yeah, yeah!" Daocheng Yingmei nodded repeatedly.

Halfway up the mountain, shortly after they left.

A woman in a white dress and gold and jade jewelry walked out.

Her expression no longer seemed so relaxed, but a little heavy. Suddenly, her face was full of smiles, which changed so much that it was difficult to understand her thoughts.

Underground, the war situation gradually developed to a fever pitch.

"Thunder Technique!" Daocheng Yingmei threw out the talisman and forced a purple phantom warrior back. Before it could react, a thunderbolt dropped from the mist out of thin air, killing the fallen warrior.

Seeing that the crisis was over, Shangshang Zhaoyue turned around and struck another thunderbolt from the clear sky on the huge miasma tumor in mid-air.

This behemoth is probably as tall as a small building. After all, it is the filth accumulated on Narukami Island for hundreds of years. Ordinary lightning strikes are ineffective and require the cooperation of Shen Ying.

And Kamizakura's suppressive power requires the operation of the agency, which also requires the efforts of Inagi Hotumi.

If Inakiro Hotumi wants to concentrate on dismantling the mechanism, she must eliminate the influence of the endless stream of fallen warriors.

However, she was unable to cause effective damage to the fallen warriors, and the attacks in the flowers were simply ineffective. She could only use the purple shield to protect Daocheng Hotumi from the miasma. As for the enemy, she was solely responsible for Shangshan Akitsuki.

As a result, Shang Shizhaoyue had to take care of both ends. As he came and went, he frequently activated the form changes of the Chidori Spear, which consumed chakra violently. Even he felt a little tired for a long time.

Fortunately, the dawn of victory is not far away.

After Hotaru Inagi once again consolidated Shenzakura's suppressive power, Shangshan Aoyuki calmly mobilized a huge amount of chakra to hit a Chidori Spear, and continued to sway the lightning.

For a moment, the surging thunder and lightning dispersed the dense mist, and Miasma's size continued to shrink in the struggle. Shenying seemed to sense hope and increased her suppression.

"It's finally over..." Seeing that the miasma was completely wiped out, Daocheng Yingmei's face looked exhausted.

The poisonous miasma quietly receded, but the ground was still lifeless, and the roots of the sacred cherry trees remained unchanged.

Obviously, the final step of Shenying Dazu is still missing.

It was supposed to be self-dissolution in Huasanli, but now, the variables are in the hands of Shangshang Zhaoyue.

"It's not over yet," Shangshang Zhaoyue took out the imperial guard with a sullen face. What he held in his other hand was the dark-colored Bai Chen Ring.

"It's time to get to work." He silently accused a certain fox who had been fishing until now.

"Did you notice?" The soft whisper was like a breeze, and the pink light was like a bubble, shining like a pearl in the dark underground.

The figure that appeared after the light dissipated was the Eightfold Divine Son dressed in white.

She smiled beautifully and was as gentle as spring.
