Chapter 253 Witch and Black Beast

Author: love to reason

night.

The huge mountains, shrouded in mist, look eerie and mysterious.

Menma held Xiao Shion's hand and looked up at the red torii gate in front of her. The sultry air continued to pour out of the cave.

"Maitreya, is this right here?"

"Yes."

Maitreya's gentle voice reached Menma's ears: "Hundreds of years ago, the demon was defeated by the shrine maiden at that time. The soul was sealed in the shrine of the country of ghosts, guarded by successive generations of shrine maidens, and the body was sealed in the swamp.

Separate and isolated treatment in the volcanic temple of the country."

In other words, if someone wants to resurrect the monster in a complete form, he must get the body sealed in the volcano of the Land of Swamp in order to regain its full strength.

Menma touched his chin thoughtfully.

"It seems that the stone soldiers we met along the way are all smoke bombs thrown by monsters to attack the east and the west."

To him, those stone soldiers seemed to be attacking fiercely and with great momentum, but they were not an opponent that was difficult to deal with. The real key was the monsters.

If the monsters cannot be sealed, as long as the monsters' power continues to spread, these stone statue legions will be continuously created and continuously attack the towns where humans gather.

Menma looked at the crater below, squinted his eyes and said to himself: "Miroku, you must have not forgotten your promise, right?"

"Don't worry, the witch will keep her word."

In Menma's mental space, Maitreya lowered his head, a look of thought flashed in his lavender eyes.

So far, she has predicted the death of countless people and has never failed.

But what Menma's final outcome will be, she has no way of knowing at this time.

The struggle against fate gave Maitreya some curiosity and confusion.

Are there really human beings who are not bound by fate?

Miroku looked at Xiao Shion aside through Menma's line of sight, and thought to himself.

"The demon" is the dark side that the witches have stripped away from themselves. It is the other half that the witches are trying to abandon. Now its chakra content has reached an unprecedented level of terror.

As for the light side, the shrine maiden is actually equivalent to the dark side of the "demon".

This means that the current shrine maiden Shion is actually the one with the best talent and potential among all the shrine maidens in the past.

If you look at it from this perspective, then with the talent of Shion, the strongest miko, and the assistance of Menma, a strong man, it is indeed the best time to deal with the problem of "monsters" left over from history.

"Perhaps, correcting the mistakes we have made and getting things back on track is Aster's true destiny."

"But, does it really have to go to this point?"

Maitreya whispered to himself, a little confused in his eyes.

Shion's potential is not just the amount of chakra and spiritual talent she possesses. Her real potential is actually merging with the "demon" as the dark side, and then becoming a complete "miko".

Maitreya doesn't know what will happen to Ziyuan.

But when the split "miko" and "monster" merge, the power they can obtain is by no means a simple one plus one.

Unfortunately, if you want to gain great power, you must also bear corresponding risks.

If you are not careful, Ziyuan will be devoured by "monsters" and become a "monster" with extremely terrifying power.

This is why Miroku is hesitant about whether to tell Menma or not.

If it succeeds, then everyone will naturally be happy.

Shion has escaped the fate of a miko, has a complete and free soul, and does not have to worry about the threat of monsters.

However, if you fail, you will have to face a powerful monster that is powerful, good at all kinds of "witchcraft", cunning, brutal and bloodthirsty.

Menma didn't know or care about Maitreya's thoughts.

What he cares about now is another thing.

"Next, the Snow Country will continue to focus on developing domestic economic and military strength. However, as the Snow Country develops, sooner or later it will expand its territory outwards, absorb more people and productive forces, and transform from a neutral country into a great power."

The Kingdom of Swamp is located between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Netherworld. It is an extremely small country on the map, so its strategic value is not worth caring about at all.

But the Kingdom of Oni is Menma’s favorite springboard.

The Kingdom of Ghosts borders the Kingdom of Snow and the Kingdom of Earth to the north, the Kingdom of You and the Kingdom of Bears to the south, and faces the Kingdom of Water and the Kingdom of Thunder across the sea to the west.

Among them, the Kingdom of Netherworld and the Kingdom of Swamp are seriously influenced by the Kingdom of Demons. The witch culture is relatively popular. In private, they can even be said to be tributaries of the Kingdom of Demons.

As long as the bloodless revolution annexes these small countries, and then tears off a piece of the Earth Kingdom's territory before the other big countries react, the Snow Country can have a territory and population close to that of the five major countries.

At that time, the Kingdom of Snow will become the target of public criticism, and the red moon hidden in it will soon be discovered by the five major countries.

but……

"It doesn't matter." Menma smiled and shook his head.

In the final analysis, the foundation of all this comes from its own powerful force.

Both Scarlet Moon and Snow Kingdom have been waiting for this unprecedented war for a long time.

What's more, Menma has been setting out in the entire ninja world for many years.

Just waiting for his fire to ignite the fuse, the five great ninja villages will have nothing to do with themselves, even if they want to deal with the Snow Country, they will be unable to do so.

This plan started when Menma came to this world, and he privately named it "The Prairie Fire Plan".

"What's wrong?"

Maitreya's voice came into his mind, bringing Men's thoughts back to his mind.

"Nothing, I thought of something worth looking forward to."

Menma shook his head, led Xiao Shion on the road to the ancestral hall, and continued down the circular road.

The demon's physical body is sealed in this volcano temple.

The road in the cave has been artificially repaired and spread out relatively flat.

Candlesticks are embedded in the grooves on the mountain walls on both sides. The flames of the candles are not enough to illuminate the entire cave path, so some places still appear dim.

Click, click, click...

The stone statue soldiers who originally wanted to attack Menma seemed to be controlled by a certain existence, and they all took detours to avoid Menma and the two.

Seeing this, the corners of Menma's mouth slightly raised.

"Interesting, do you want to invite me?"

In this way, the two of them arrived in front of the ancestral hall smoothly.

But just then.

"Ho ho..."

A sneer from nowhere suddenly rang in Menma's ears.

Purple-black mist suddenly rose, hitting Menma's body like an arrow.

But it seemed to be repelled by some kind of force. Before it could touch the numb face, the purple-black mist was directly bounced away.

"Um?"

In the purple-black mist, a low voice of doubt seemed to come out.

Looking at the purple-black mist, Menma smiled sarcastically.

"Is this the latest way to say hello?"

The purple-black mist trembled slightly and made a low voice: "Is it the so-called natural energy again? However, you can actually wrap the entire body directly."

"You're more interesting than that kid with glasses."

After a pause, the voice beguiled: "Human, I am very curious about this power. Do you want to become one with me? I can give you more powerful power."

"...The more powerful power you call is the dark spiritual power of human beings?" Menma sighed silently, "Only monsters like you would regard this kind of thing as a treasure."

The purple-black mist was obviously stunned.

Immediately, his tone became lower and a little more cold.

"Ho ho ho, you are so brazen. You, like the two idiots there, think you can deal with me, but the only one in this world who can defeat me is a witch."

"I can sense your extremely powerful desire. This is your flaw as a human being."

"As long as there is desire in your heart, as long as you dare to step out of the turtle shell, I will swallow you to pieces!"

After saying that, the purple-black mist let out a gloomy and strange laughter.

Then the color gradually faded, and it was about to disappear in front of you.

"You want to leave after talking nonsense in front of me?"

Menma suddenly stretched out his arm, and something as dark as liquid clung to his palm.

He directly grabbed the purple-black mist in his hand.

"What the hell is this?"

No matter how hard the purple mist struggled in his palm, there was no sign of breaking free.

It's like being isolated in another space.

As Menma gradually clenched his fists, the range of movement of the purple-black mist became smaller and smaller.

till the end.

Bang!

"Human! Just wait for me!"

With a shrill and resentful wail, the purple-black mist completely dissipated.

"It seems feasible."

Menma narrowed his eyes slightly and said to himself: "Don't worry, I'll go find you now."

Just when he wanted to move forward, there was a sudden roar from ahead.

Bang bang bang!!

The sudden explosion instantly blocked the road to the cave.

Then, in this dark cave, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded from the front.

Countless eyes shining with scarlet light emerged in the darkness.

Those were not the stone soldiers outside, but human beings whose whole bodies were shrouded in black aura.

Many of them wore forehead protectors from Sunagakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure.

They were all obviously ninjas who were corrupted by the power of monsters and then became unconscious puppets.

"Finally waiting for you!"

In front of these ninjas, stood three guys wearing white robes and masks on their faces.

It was the four members of the Underworld Sect who had already lost one person.

Except for the dead Kitai, the remaining ones are Kusha, Setsuna, and Shizuku.

"Oh? You are actually here?"

Menma protected Shion behind him and looked at the three of them, seeming a little surprised that they were still alive.

Didn't Kabuto and Naruto take care of these three guys easily?

Or...what happened?

When the three members of the Huangquan Sect heard this, they seemed to have thought of something, and their bodies trembled in unison.

After reacting, their faces showed undisguised murderous intent!

"court death!"

"Setsuna, Shizuku, swallow the chakra!"

As the leader, Jiusha directly issued the order.

Then, under Menma's curious gaze, the two of them opened their sleeves and saw that the blood vessels on their slender arms bulged, and then it seemed as if there were worms swimming in them.

puff!

The skin on their arms exploded, and a small purple snake emerged from it, shaking its body in the air as if roaring.

Jiusha was no exception and also performed the same set of operations.

But then, the three people's actions caused Menma to cover Shion's eyes.

They directly tore the purple snake apart, raised their arms, raised their heads, and swallowed the liquid from half of the purple snake's body directly into their mouths.

"Children, don't watch this. You will have nightmares when you go back."

The scene in front of me really challenges the visual nerves of normal people.

"Well, okay~" Ziyuan nodded obediently.

The next moment, a powerful aura erupted from the three members of the Underworld Sect.

boom!!

A huge purple beam of light rose into the sky, and a terrifying shock wave centered on the three people and spread out in all directions.

Countless gravel flew and dust rose.

The boulder under his feet even had cracks and cracks, and could turn into powder and shatter into the soil at any time.

And with the fusion of chakra, the light beam gradually dissipated.

Under the stimulation of that chakra, the bodies of the three people changed.

Kaka!

The arms of the three people became extremely long, lying on the ground like some kind of strange species, with strange lines carved on every part of their bodies.

There are even more demon-like faces.

At this time, they were like evil ghosts climbing out of hell.

"Haha, I feel full of power!"

"I'm going to tear that kid to pieces!"

"I don't believe you can be as perverted as those two guys!"

Looking in Menma's direction, the three people's necks performed very exaggerated rotation and twisting movements, and even heard the sound of bones breaking. They tilted their heads and grinned evilly.

Under their skin, snake-like creatures squirmed and squirmed rapidly.

It made the faces of the three people look even more ferocious and terrifying.

Menma's eyes were filled with disgust, and he couldn't help complaining: "What kind of strange thing will leave a shadow on little Shion's childhood?"

"Besides, with the borrowed power, even if you don't fight, you won't survive a day."

Devouring such a huge and vicious amount of chakra was simply not something their bodies could bear.

Death is already inevitable.

"Huh, we won't die!"

The corners of Jiu Sha's mouth curled up, and he said loudly with a fervent expression, "The great Lord Sprite will definitely resurrect us and give us eternal life!"

"There will be only one eternal kingdom left in the entire ninja world!"

Obviously, under the impact of the huge amount of alienated chakra, their sanity was also affected to a certain extent.

But this also gives them greater power.

The next moment, the three of them had launched an attack, roaring like beasts.

"Roar!!!"

As the roar sounded, a purple-black shock wave visible to the naked eye spread out from the mouth, easily blowing up a storm that ripped apart rocks, and launched an attack in the direction of Menma.

"Escape Earth Corridor!"

The ground cracked open, instantly surrounding Menma and Ma like a pair of giant hands.

"Fire Release·Flowing Fire!"

"Wind Release: Divine Wind!"

Immediately afterwards, the flames burst onto the cracked ground and submerged into it, and then the divine wind swept across, amplifying the fire instantly and spreading to the ground, trying to completely devour Menma and the two!

It must have been reported. I spent a day revising the outline and cut out a lot of content...
