The Counterattack of the Villains

Less than half an hour after Qi Teng and others left the shrine, they came back in a hurry.

It's just that when there were four people going out, only three came back, and they were all missing.

The three of them found Li Mu, and Qi Teng said in panic: "Captain, we encountered a ghost, Xiao Ding has disappeared, please save him."

Li Mu's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Zheng Zha and others, and then asked Qi Teng: "Tell me clearly, what is going on?"

Qi Teng wiped the sweat from his head and said, "We were collecting dry firewood in the forest about two hundred meters away from the shrine. Xiao Ding suddenly said that he wanted to join the big class, so he entered a bush."

"After more than ten minutes, he still didn't come out, and there was no response when we called him, so we went to look for him."

"As a result, after we passed through the bushes, we actually saw a thatched house, which looked a bit like a simple toilet in the countryside."

"We walked over and opened the door and saw that it was actually a public toilet environment, the kind with stalls and tiles on the floor."

"The internal space is much larger than that of a thatched house. This is obviously something wrong. I felt something bad at the time and didn't dare to go in, so I hurried back to report to you."

Speaking of this, he showed a pleading look on his face and said: "Captain, I know you have no obligation to save Xiao Ding, but since there is something strange nearby, it is also a threat to the team."

"Please also ask the captain to save Xiao Ding while handling the matter. Just think that we owe you a favor and we will definitely repay it in the future."

Chu Xuan glanced at him lightly. This person had some abilities and was more than enough to be a team leader, but it was a pity that he was not of the same mind as the team.

After listening to Qi Tengyi's description, Zheng Zha and Zhang Jie exclaimed in unison: "Huazi in the toilet."

Li Mu nodded and said solemnly: "According to Qi Tengyi's description, there is a high probability that Huazi did not run away. Huazi has space abilities that can isolate our perception, so we cannot sense her sinister aura."

"She can also create an alien space. You are right not to enter the toilet, otherwise you will not be able to come out again once you enter."

Qi Teng and others felt frightened for a while, and a layer of white sweat broke out on their backs. They no longer had any hope that Zhong Ding could survive.

Hanako's murderous intent and resentment were so strong that Qi Zhongding had been missing for so long and had probably been killed.

At this time, they also realized that it was too dangerous to leave the seniors and act alone before they passed through the plot world and got strengthened.

From now on, you can't stay away from senior people no matter what.

Li Mu said to Zhang Jie: "Ajie, go to the kitchen and tell Fuling what happened and ask her to ask the old witch Zelan for help."

"good."

Zhang Jie immediately ran towards the kitchen, while Li Mu said to the others: "Guys, let's go take a look, Qi Tengyi, you guys will lead the way."

Everyone packed their weapons and walked quickly towards the woods to the north of the shrine, led by one or three people from Qi Teng.

After a while, a group of people arrived at the scene of the incident. They could see many dry branches piled here, which were the firewood collected by Qi Teng and others.

We continued walking for about twenty meters, passed through a bush, and arrived at a relatively open area.

However, the expressions of Qi Teng and the other three people changed drastically, because the thatched house they saw before was no longer anywhere to be seen, leaving only the crowd six or seven meters away, lying in a pool of blood.

"Xiao Ding." Qi Teng yelled and was about to rush over, but Zheng Zha grabbed him and said, "Don't go there, something is wrong there."

Zheng Zha has reached the third level of blood god practice, which is equivalent to the golden elixir stage, and has condensed his spiritual consciousness.

Therefore, he could sense that this open space was covered by something. Although he could see the crowd with his naked eyes, his spiritual consciousness could not penetrate it at all.

That feeling was similar to Zhan Lan's mental barrier, but Zheng Zha was sure it wasn't.

Because mental power and spiritual consciousness have the same attributes, spiritual consciousness can directly impact the mental power barrier.

But Zheng Zha's spiritual consciousness could only sense the power that enveloped this open space, but could not touch it.

Li Mu asked Zheng Zha: "What's going on?"

Zheng Zha said solemnly: "Starting from three meters away from us, there is a layer of invisible force that blocks my detection of spiritual consciousness. If nothing else, it should be a space barrier. I will try to see if I can break it."

Li Mu nodded and motioned for everyone to disperse. Mao Xiong, Arnold, Chu Xuan, Ling Dian, Zhao Yingkong, Bawang and others all pointed their guns in front of them.

Zheng Zha reached out and pulled out the Snow Drinking Knife from his back, raised it high, and used the power of the blood spirit to output. The sword glowed with blood and extended forward.

In the process of extending, the blood light quickly condensed, and a huge sword light that was more than ten meters long and about half a meter wide soon appeared in front of everyone.

"drink……"

Zheng Zha shouted loudly, and the sword light fell heavily two meters away from Qu Zhongding.

"Shua...boom"

The sword light fell on the ground, first cutting out a bottomless crack that was more than ten meters long, about half a foot wide, and bottomless.

Then the sword light exploded, disintegrating into countless fine pieces of bloody sword energy that spread to both sides, scraping off a layer of the land.

The trees on the left and right were instantly scarred, and the aftermath spread to forty or fifty meters away.

If this knife were to hit a crowd, it would instantly kill and injure a lot of people. It was many times more powerful than Nie Feng's Aohan Six Techniques.

The power of this sword not only scares the newcomers, but also the veterans.

However, everyone discovered that when those tiny pieces of sword energy passed by Qi Zhongding, they passed right through.

Even a layer of the ground beneath him was scraped off, but the sword energy did not cause any harm to him, and even his clothes were not cut, as if it was just a phantom.

If you squat down and take a look, you will find that he has not landed at all now. His whole body is hanging just inches above the ground, and even the blood under his body is not falling.

Zheng Zha looked at this scene and said with an ugly face: "No, that area belongs to an alien space, which means it is not in the same time and space as us, and we can't touch it at all."

"I'm afraid that Hanako showed up her body on purpose to trick others into walking over and then falling into her alien space, letting her slaughter her."

The alien space belonging to evil spirits, to use a more representative word to describe it, is the realm.

In the realm of evil spirits, evil spirits are almost omnipotent, which is the same as the relationship between the great road and the prehistoric universe.

The evil spirit created an alien space, which is equivalent to the avenue of that alien space. It is a home battle, and the strength of those who enter it will be greatly suppressed.

Unless the strength is much higher than that of Hanako, even after being suppressed, it is still enough to eliminate her and forcibly destroy the alien space from the inside. Otherwise, once you enter, you will not be able to come out again.

However, neither Li Mu nor Zheng Zha was sure that they could kill Hanako after entering, so the situation suddenly reached a deadlock.

Zheng Zha looked at Qi Teng and the others and said, "The edge of the space barrier three meters away should be where the toilet door is."

"You are so lucky. Whenever you step into the toilet door, there will be a few more people lying there."

The three of them were overjoyed. Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi looked at Qi Tengyi with admiration.

Fortunately, he was cautious enough. If it were the two of them, they might have gone in and chosen him as their captain, which was indeed true.

Qi Teng calmed down and asked Li Mu: "Captain, what should we do now?"

Li Muning frowned and said: "Let the old witch Zelan come over first and see if she can do anything. She can guard a shrine, and there is no way she has nothing under her hands."

"After all, evil spirits with space-based abilities that can create alien spaces are rare, but they are not unheard of."

Some evil spirits can also make people escape from reality and enter a strange environment, but most of them are illusions, which are equivalent to a high-end version of ghosts covering their eyes.

It is not at the same level as Hanako's actual creation of an alien space. The illusion can deceive the eyes, but it cannot deceive the mental power and consciousness.

After a while, Granny Zelan rushed over with Poria, Zhang Qin, Zhan Lan, Li Xiaoyi, and Zhang Jie.

At this time, Grandma Zelan was holding a coin-control stick and a cloth bag slung across her body, which contained many things.

Fu Ling brought her long bow, and her quiver was filled with arrows with talismans on them.

"Kasugano-kun, how is the situation?"

Li Mu bowed to the old witch Zelan and said with some respect: "I'm sorry for alarming senior, but there is nothing I can do. This evil spirit is too difficult to deal with. I'm afraid I can only rely on senior."

Granny Zelan said gently: "It doesn't matter. This evil spirit dares to come and cause trouble near my shrine. I have the responsibility to deal with it."

Li Mu nodded and stopped being polite. While introducing the situation, he took out Li Xiaoyi's particle gun and handed it back to him.

"The name of this evil spirit is Hiragi Hanako. Because she was brutally killed in the toilet, she had deep resentment. Since then, she has become an evil spirit that specifically resides in the toilet. She is known as the 'Hanako in the toilet' by the people."

"She has space abilities and can create alien spaces. We tried to attack, but to no avail. I wonder if seniors have a way to break through Hanako's space barrier?"

Grandma Zelan couldn't help but feel frightened when she saw the huge knife mark on the ground and the messy woods on the left and right of the knife mark.

Such powerful destructive power, these exorcists are indeed not simple.

After listening to Li Mu's words, Granny Zelan said confidently: "Leave it to me!"

She handed the coin-control stick to Fu Ling, then reached out and took out a round mirror from the bag on her waist.

The back of this mirror is pitch black and its surface is covered with dense particles. The front has a silver frame with an octagonal figure in the center. The mirror surface is made of crystal with circles.

Seeing this mirror, Qi Tengyi exclaimed: "Eight-foot mirror."

Grandma Zelan admired Qi Teng and said, "Akagi-kun is very insightful. He is the Eight-foot Mirror."

Others were also surprised when they heard this. Is this the eight-foot mirror among the three neon artifacts? How could it fall into the hands of an old witch in a deep mountain shrine?

Qi Tengyi asked this question on behalf of everyone: "But isn't the Eight-foot Mirror enshrined in Ise Shrine? How could it be in the hands of seniors?"

Granny Zelan said: "The mirror enshrined on the side of Ise Jingu Shrine is called 'Shin Sutra Mirror', and it is the incarnation of Amaterasu Omikami."

"The name of my mirror is called the Eight-foot Mirror. Although its shape is the same as the Zhenjingjin Mirror, its power is far different, but it is more than enough to deal with evil spirits."

After saying this, she said no more. She held the eight-foot mirror in one hand and pressed the mirror surface with the other, making mudras one after another while muttering something in a low voice.

The syllables of the incantation she recited were very strange. They were not in neon language, and even the Lord God did not automatically translate them.

But as her spells and hand seals continued, the crystal surface of the eight-foot mirror began to glow with white light, and the octagonal image in the middle formed a light pattern and began to rotate slowly.

After about ten seconds, Granny Zelan paused and raised the mirror to face the front.

A dazzling white light suddenly erupted from the mirror, covering the entire open space.

Zheng Zha felt that the properties of this white light seemed to be the same as Hanako's space barrier. He quickly realized that this was the space power of the eight-foot mirror, which could prevent Hanako from escaping.

The next moment, the white light converged toward the middle, forming a beam of light that shot forward. The reincarnators saw that ripples began to appear in the space three meters away.

In less than five seconds, a hole was opened at the location illuminated by the light beam. The white light seemed to have a corrosive effect, and the hole began to spread around.

As the space seemed to have been wiped away, a thatched house slowly appeared in front of everyone.

Just as Zheng Zha said, three meters away is the broken wooden door of the thatched house.

At this time, the wooden door was wide open, and the scene inside could be seen. It was a public toilet environment that was completely inconsistent with this thatched house. Qi Zhongding was lying in front of the third cubicle of the toilet.

If Qi Teng and others had just rushed to Qu Zhongding's side, they would have directly entered an alien space.

Seeing that the space barrier was broken and the eight-foot mirror beam in Granny Zelan's hand disappeared, Li Mu decisively ordered: "Everyone, attack."

"Whoosh whoosh..."

"Da da da da..."

All the firearms opened fire at once, energy particle beams mixed with rune-patterned bullets, and splashed towards the thatched house. Zheng Zha also held the snow drinking knife, slashing out streaks of bloody sword light.

Zhang Qin and Li Mu, on the other hand, continued to draw red lines in front of them, and instantly condensed hundreds of exorcism talismans, forming a talisman array outside the thatched house.

The powerful firepower of everyone, the huge spiritual power of Li Mu, Zhang Qin, and Zheng Zha, as well as the method of condensing talismans in the void, all shocked Granny Zelan.

It would take several hours for her to successfully draw a talisman with the effect of exorcising evil spirits, but the other party could just draw it without any carrier.

What kind of magic is this? Is there such a method in the inheritance of Neon Onmyoji?

And those things they shoot out beams of light, what kind of magic weapons are they?

Is it because I don’t understand, or is the world changing too fast?

After not leaving the mountain for more than twenty years, what has the world become?

Granny Zelan felt that after this incident was resolved, she needed to go down the mountain for a walk.

Not to mention that Granny Zelan was inexplicably shocked there, but she said that the entire thatched house was actually built by Hanako, and in fact did not exist at all.

With the saturation attacks of the reincarnations, the environment of the thatched house and the public toilet inside began to distort like a phantom.

At this moment, a petite figure wrapped in rich black energy swept out of the twisted space and flew in the opposite direction of the reincarnations.

"Crackling..."

The flying figure collided with the exorcism talisman array, making a sound like an electric shock. Along with the splashing sparks, the figure was violently bounced back.

And as the figure swept out, the thatched hut completely disappeared, and the figure of Zhong Ding reappeared on the ground.

Everyone immediately turned their guns and focused their fire on the small figure with rising black energy.

Under the continuous shooting of particle beams and rune-patterned bullets, coupled with Zheng Zha's flying sword energy, large areas of black energy disappeared, and continued to emerge from the figure, but the black energy was obviously gradually becoming thinner.

As the black energy thinned, Hanako's true form was revealed.

It was a little girl who looked like a primary school student. She wore a white shirt with a red suspender skirt, a pair of red round-toe shoes, and even her eyes were blood red. She held a sharp fruit knife stained with blood in her right hand.

No wonder he was so cruel. He was wearing such red when he died. It would be weird if he wasn't cruel.

At this time, the surrounding space was suppressed by the power of the eight-foot mirror. Hanako was unable to use space jump to escape, so she wanted to rush towards the crowd and kill them.

But under the concentrated fire of particle beams and rune-patterned bullets, she was unable to move forward at all. She could only wear a twisted and crazy look on her face, and kept letting out frightening howls from her mouth.

After everyone had been firing for more than a minute, and all the firearms and spare magazines that used rune-patterned bullets had been emptied, the black energy on Hanako's body finally became so sparse that even her figure became somewhat transparent.

Li Mu and Zhang Qin looked at each other, and Zhang Qin smiled and said, "Let's see who is lucky!"

Li Mu also smiled and said: "Come on!"

After saying that, they pointed their sword fingers towards Hanako with the same movement, and shouted in unison: "The evil spirits retreat."

This is what they agreed to do. In front of Grandma Zelan and Poria, every time they use the talisman to attack, they will tell the evil spirits to disperse, and they will do the whole show.

In fact, their talismans are all controlled by thoughts, and there is no need to shout any words at all, but shouting can help deepen the thoughts.

This is the same as when memorizing a text, reading it aloud makes people remember it more deeply than reading it silently, and it can be recited faster.

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the hundreds and nearly a thousand evil exorcism talismans surrounding them all converged inwards and rushed toward Hanako.

"ah……"

"boom"

Hanako was instantly wrapped into a rice dumpling by many talismans. Quantitative changes led to qualitative changes. All the talismans exploded at the same time when they encountered the evil spirit, blasting Hanako to pieces.

The main god's reminder sounded in Li Mu's mind: "Kill Hanako in the evil toilet, get a C-level side plot, and 3,000 reward points."

Others said: "Assist in killing Hanako in the evil toilet, obtain a D-level side plot, and receive 1,000 reward points."

Li Mu blinked his left eye at Zhang Qin and grinned. After all, he had a higher level of spiritual power and made more talismans. At the same time, the talismans flew one step faster, so the final blow was his.

When everyone heard the voice from the Lord God, they all became energetic and looked happy.

Everyone was greatly surprised that Hanako had the value of a Sadako clone. For such an easy solution, they thought the reward wouldn't be too much!

But they didn't want to think about it. If it hadn't been for Granny Zelan's eight-foot mirror this time, they wouldn't have been able to break through the space barrier. How could they have defeated Hanako so easily?

If you enter Hanako's alien space to fight, you don't know what will happen!
