The young man and the monk walked side by side. The two strolled down the aisle, turning a blind eye to the dead bones around them. Occasionally, the spell blown by the wind floated out from the depths and was caught by Ye Feng between his two fingers.

The spell was penetrated by the rain, the writing on the surface was blurred, and the attached spiritual power had long since dissipated, replaced by the abundant power of death, and then the flames rose, and the latter was burned to ashes.

In the gloomy environment, accompanied by a low voice, he slowly told a distant story.

"It was the Asuka era, and the third-generation owner of Xixing Temple planted this cherry tree. At that time, a singer fell in love with him, and the two of them had a private life."

"But the honor of the family did not allow him to do so. In the end, the two decided to elope and meet under this cherry tree."

"It's just that the man was entangled in something and couldn't get away, so he said to his lover, "You wait for me, I'll be back soon."

"That month was when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and the warm cherry color was the color of the girl's heart. She silently waited for her lover's figure until the leaves withered and the baby in her belly fell to the ground."

"However, the hard waiting was fruitless. When the child was picked up, the news was that the lover was married."

"In the end, the girl closed her eyes and fell under the tree. Her body began to rot, turning into dust and blackening the cherry blossoms. The promise of no regrets turned into eternal death and haunted the Xigongji family for generations."

"So, that baby is your grandfather?" Ye Feng pondered. Unexpectedly, the West Wandering Demon was born like this, absorbed enough grievances from the girl to become a "spirit", and coupled with the spiritual power of the onmyoji who have died from generation to generation, it is not surprising that it has such a strong power of death.

"Injustice, injustice!" Master Xixing sighed.

"No matter how many excuses there are, it is still our family who owes her. This crime will never be repaid even in this lifetime."

At the end of the corridor, looking up, the dilapidated courtyard was barren, with a tall cherry tree growing in the center. The insanely long dead branches are especially terrifying like dancing snakes. The trunks are densely covered with spells, each of which is emitting a shimmer, but it is entangled by the black gas, which is quickly swallowed up and turned into ordinary spells. Going down, a distorted face is faintly visible behind the veiled face.

Westbound demon!

Ye Feng sucked in a breath of cold air. In his sight, this cherry tree was completely enveloped by the extremely rich black force of death. It was crowded with countless souls directly above, all with painful expressions on their faces. , kept crying. .

Chapter 159: Suppress the Westward Demon!

"The imprisoned undead will never be freed. The westward demon, whose roots are stationed in the Yinquan, leads directly to the Nine Serenities, and absorbs nutrients to grow stronger day by day."

There are countless corpses buried under the intertwined roots. The soil was surging, "Kahahahah." Several bone claws broke free, leaving five hideous scratches on the surface of the soil, and then the unresting spirit controlled the corpse to slowly climb out from the deep underground, trying to remove it from the ground. All the creatures I saw were pulled down to hell.

The black mist surged, the undead cried, completely covering the sky, the wind was roaring, and the lamentation was never-ending. Although the pink cherry blossoms are beautiful, they are already rotten inside, and all that is left is darkness, which contains a terrifying death.

At this time, a faint light pierced through the night, and the spell flew from all directions, and fell accurately on the skull's head, followed by a faint fire in the dark void, like a candle in the wind erratic, almost going to be extinguished.

In the end, the soul fire dissipated, and the controlled resentful soul returned to the trunk of the westward demon. At the same time, there was another human face among the crowded undead above, with glaring eyes, and was then drowned in the sea of ​​souls.

"The endless bondage, even if it is broken, will gather together, this kind of pain from the depths of the soul, - is that so?"

Ye Feng looked at the westward demon. At this time, the new skeletons climbed out again. They were more numerous and stronger than the previous ones. Even the westward mages started to struggle. spilled.

Master Xixing smiled bitterly and said, "The Xixing Demon has been sealed with a spell by the Xixing Temple family for generations. Even so, it will erupt every so often, and it has become more and more intense in recent years. I'm afraid it won't be able to suppress it any time soon."

"Is this your intention?"

The monk was silent. He did have this plan, but he was revealed before he even opened his mouth.

At this time, the peaceful golden Buddha light and the black death energy confronted each other. The latter attacked desperately, while the former covered it like a bowl, but after all, it was not an opponent. It had been eroded by nearly half in no time, and the speed was still accelerating.

"If Your Excellency helps me, you can choose two items from the Xixing Temple family's collection!" He gritted his teeth, his face was slightly pale, and his consumption was obviously huge. Pick ten!"

At this time, one hundred and eight Buddha beads were thrown into the air, turned into golden runes, and formed a strange formation to surround the death energy. Then the runes were shocked and shattered in his incredible eyes. Come.

"Wow!" Master Xixing's face changed greatly, then he spurted out a mouthful of blood, his body swayed, and he coughed while covering his **** mouth with his hands, "My golden talisman beads can't be suppressed!"

Although blood is dripping in his heart, the situation has become serious beyond his expectations. If the Xixing Yao is allowed to escape today, not only the Xixingji family will suffer, but the entire Kyoto will be turned to death!

So I stopped thinking about it and made the biggest concession.

"Master Ye, as long as you are willing to help me, the treasure house is yours to choose!"

As soon as he said that, Lei Feng shook his head, "This is not a matter of compensation. Originally, it was because your Xixing Temple family was wrong. It is understandable that they want revenge, but now they have to use strong means to suppress them. In principle, I can't take action."

"Master Ye!" Facing this answer, Master Xixing was so angry that he almost spit out the next sentence, "As a great Onmyoji, how can you be so ignorant of life and ignore innocent people?"

Ye Feng rolled his eyes: "None of my business."

Is the world alive? save the world? He is not the savior, so he is too lazy to care about this kind of business. Besides, even if the West Wanderer will destroy the capital, the big deal is that he can leave with Kaguya and Meihong. As for the task, it can be completed without those people.

Chapter 159: Suppress the Westward Demon!

Is the world alive? save the world? He is not the savior, so he is too lazy to care about this kind of business. Besides, even if the West Wanderer will destroy the capital, the big deal is that he can leave with Kaguya and Meihong. As for the task, it can be completed without those people.

Moreover, the conditions offered by the other party are not attractive enough. Just opening the treasure house can't meet his needs. The strength of the Westbound Demon alone is almost comparable to Feng Jian Youxiang, which is obviously thankless.

"you…!"

Master Xixing was very angry. Since ancient times, who can advance to the Great Onmyoji is not a kind-hearted sage? Which one doesn't put the life and death of human beings in mind? Now he would actually say "it's none of my business".

At this time, the Buddha's light has long since lost its brilliance before, just like the afterglow of the last sunset, approaching the edge of collapse, which also inspired the ferocity of the dead aura, launching a stronger impact, causing the pressure on the caster to increase sharply, as if carrying a mountain on his shoulders , the bones all over his body "creaked".

oooooo asking for flowers oo

"That's it." The two of them stalemate for a while, and he sighed, "Has Master Ye heard of the Three Divine Artifacts?"

Japan's three major artifacts: Bachi Qionggou Jade, Yata Mirror, and Tiancong Cloud Sword. Ye Feng's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became interested, "Which one did you say?"

"The eight-foot Qionggou jade is now enshrined in the house of Xixing Temple. You can take it with you." Master Xixing smiled bitterly.

"The deal is done!"

At this moment, there was a muffled sound from the crumbling Buddha's light, as if a hole on the surface of a balloon had been pierced by a needle, it exploded instantly, and then the suppressed dead energy spewed out like a flood that burst the embankment. , in which the piercing strange sound seemed to mock the weakness of the other party.

............

"Master Ye!" Master Xixing was shocked.

The next moment, like the dawn rising in the sky, a mighty sword light tore through the darkness and illuminated his eyes. The sun, dispelling the night, gives warmth and hope.

"The undead who have no peace all day long, wandering around Nai He's figure, the pain of not being able to enter reincarnation, today, let me free you!"

The flames hang around the sword qi in the sky, but all the dead qi it touches dissipate, and at the same time, the mourning sound is even more miserable. The branches of the Westbound Demon began to tremble, the spells on the trunk turned to ashes one after another, and the faces in the black mist rushed to the "sun" for the final struggle.

However, all this was in vain. When the raging wave finally retreated, although it was fierce, when it encountered the sun and sword energy, if it encountered the nemesis, it could only retreat, and even with a grimace, it retreated into the westward demon.

In the end, a sword print appeared on the tree trunk, and all the terrifying scenes disappeared, leaving only a dry cherry tree in place.

"It's over." Ye Feng stood by the tree, staring at the woman's face, slowly fading in sight.

"As long as there are no accidents within a hundred years, the Westbound Demon will not bloom." He turned around and shook his head, "Come back to me when the time is up."

Chapter 160: The Treasure House of Xixing Temple

The strength is comparable to the westward demon of Feng Jian Youxiang, but unfortunately it is a dead thing after all. God is fair, and the stronger the spirit, the harder it is to become a demon. The soul that died with hatred a hundred years ago has long since dissipated, leaving only the resentment that acted on instinct.

He couldn't completely kill the West Wandering Demon. Because it is rooted in the depths of the earth veins, it is connected to the origin of the underworld, and it continuously absorbs nutrients. The two are one and cannot be shaken at all, so it is temporarily sealed with sword energy.

As for the so-called one-hundred-year agreement, he just said casually. When the task is completed, he will return to the system space. It is still unknown whether he will be able to stay in this world again. As for the consequences, it is not something he considers.

At this time, the dark clouds dissipated, and the warm sunlight poured on the ground to drive away the residual chill. Except for the scattered skeletons, this place looked like an ordinary dilapidated temple.

Thinking of the figure dancing under the cherry trees in later generations, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Let's plant a few more cherry trees here, maybe someone will live here in the future."

The matter was settled perfectly, and then it was time to collect the payment. Master Xixing did not breach the contract, he just said 24: Come with me. Ye Feng took a high look at the other party, knowing that Japan's three major artifacts are treasures of the country and are willing to give them to foreigners.

A strange light flashed in the seemingly turbid pupils of Master Xixing, and he said meaningfully: "Integrity, this is the attitude that a great Onmyoji should have."

"That's the best."

Afterwards, the two returned to Xixing Temple's house very quickly, and did not do any extra things, whether it was picking up the dust or singing and dancing, they all went straight to their destination.

Although the other party agreed to present the Bachi Qionggou jade, the previous conditions have not been abolished, and the treasures can still be selected.

The treasure house is located in a hidden place, so the former leads the way. After passing through many corridors, passing through dozens of guarded levels, and finally turning into a courtyard with simple and rigorous decoration, there is a huge ancestral hall in front of it.

Ye Feng walked side by side with Master Xixing, but at this moment he suddenly stopped and chuckled, "Sometimes don't do unnecessary things." Then he flicked his fingers.

The sword energy floated forward slowly, and then a strange scene appeared. I saw ripples in the air where it touched, just like throwing a stone into calm water, the ripples gradually spread, and At the same time, the sound of "Zizzi" sounded, accompanied by golden thunder patterns, and the objects that were touched suddenly fell apart.

At this time, a drop of cold sweat flowed from the forehead of Master Xixing, and he quickly explained: "This is the magic circle laid by the ancestors to guard the ancestral temple. It has been too long, and I have forgotten it. Fortunately, Master Ye found it in time, otherwise I would also will get hurt."

"Really?" Ye Feng sneered, "You can even forget your own organs, you are really amazing."

Master Xixing smiled awkwardly and said, "I'll let you see a joke. When people are old, their memory is not as good as before. Forgive me, forgive me." Then he chanted the mantra, and the golden characters blurted out. After circling in the air, he finally entered the invisible law in the array.

At the next moment, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the semi-circular cover gradually appeared from top to bottom, and the place where the characters disappeared was like being eaten by insects. Talents enter the ancestral hall.

Standing in front of the vermilion gate, looking around, in the center of the spacious hall stood a three-legged golden cauldron, with three striking incense sticks about the thickness of the arms burning and pale white smoke wafting out. There is an offering table at the back, and the wooden plaques arranged in order of status are neatly arranged.

At the top are the three major Japanese gods, and the ancestors of the Nishigyoji family are in the second row. The Westbound Mage first bowed to the tablet, then walked over and drew runes on the raised stone slab with his fingers.

Chapter 160: The Treasure House of Xixing Temple

At the top are the three major Japanese gods, and the ancestors of the Nishigyoji family are in the second row. The Westbound Mage first bowed to the tablet, then walked over and drew runes on the raised stone slab with his fingers.

Taking advantage of this time, Ye Feng wandered around the ancestral hall, glanced around, and finally landed on the murals on both sides.

Maybe it's been too long and the lines are a little blurry, but you can still see the content. There are nine murals in total, arranged from front to back, filling the left and right walls.

A fox with nine tails, a giant sea beast with eight tails, a strange demon knife, a woman with the sun in the background, a man with a naked upper body...and finally a woman with a parasol.

Yakumo purple?

Ye Feng was a little surprised. Why is there a portrait of Yayunzi in the ancestral hall of the Xixingji family? Taking a closer look, I found that the woman in the painting was short and childlike, and seemed to be being driven by a monk.

"Master Ye knows Yayunzi?"

The Westbound Mage who finished drawing the runes came to the side with a wry smile on his face, "The realm demon born from the root has unimaginable and terrifying abilities."

"She made your ancestors suffer a lot back then." Ye Feng recalled the situation when he was intercepted by the other party before.

Master Xixing nodded and said in a low voice, "Since the first ancestor discovered the realm demon, he thought she would pose a threat to human beings, so he joined the rest of the family to encircle and suppress it. At that time, the realm demon was just born, and the demon power was weak."

"It's just that the other party almost survives every time, and grows into a big demon in a short period of time..."

At this moment, a sigh sounded, "It was a 363 catastrophe, the killing without resistance in the **** storm, and many people died."

"This is a shame for the Xixing Temple family. Every generation of Onmyoji will keep it in mind. Here I still want to remind Master Xia Ye that a demon is a demon after all, and people who are not my race will have different hearts."

Ye Feng smiled and didn't say anything, Master Xixing could only shake his head when he saw this. At this time, a rumbling sound sounded, and a line appeared in the middle of the table, which was evenly divided into two halves and moved to both sides, revealing the passage to the treasure house, and then the two walked into it.

The diameter of the passage is wide enough for five people to pass side by side. The ground is very clean, and it looks like it is often cleaned. There are tiger head ornament candlesticks on both sides, extending to the end. The faint candle is burning, and the strange thing is that the heart of the flame is not orange but purple.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the narrow and deep passage, and neither of them spoke. The leader recited a few incantations every few steps to close the attack barrier. At this moment, Ye Feng felt a faint cool breeze. face.

"It's here." A dull voice sounded.

The next moment, the eyes suddenly brightened. They came to a valley through the tunnel, and their position was in the middle of the cliff. In front of them was a winding artificial staircase leading down, and a quaint shrine stood quietly in the valley. .

Chapter 161 That's all, a pile of rubbish!

"I didn't expect the treasure house of the Xixingji family to be set up here. Such a hidden building is also the hard work of your ancestors, right?"

Ye Feng did not take the artificially excavated stone ladder, but jumped down from the cliff, with the wind and thunder, just as he was about to approach the bottom, an icicle as thick as a grinding disc suddenly jumped up from the soil and caught it. Falling figure.

His feet landed firmly on the icicle, followed by another leap, and a new icicle rose again in front of him, repeating the previous action, and soon came to the entrance of the torii gate of the shrine.

Looking around, the entire shrine was empty, and there was no priestess, but both the walls and the floor were bright and clean, and it seemed that with the passage of time, it left traces of the years.

After a while, Master Xixing finally came and said with admiration, "I can't believe that Master Ye is not only excellent in swordsmanship at such a young age, but also involved in ice yin and yang techniques. ."

"It's just a little research." Ye Feng chuckled and shook his head. He didn't know the ice yin-yang technique, he just used the ability given by the "Colorful Jade Gourd". But being complimented is also a pleasant thing.

With the lifting of the layers of defense, the two finally entered the shrine, which is the treasure house of the Xixing Temple family, and stopped at the entrance of the main hall. After that, the two vermilion gates were pushed open by the Xixing Master.

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light shone from the crack of the door, and then the spacious and bright treasure room was fully displayed in front of Ye Feng.

The walls are made of gold, the lamps are made of precious stones, the pearls and jadeite are randomly thrown on the ground to form hills, and countless diamond-encrusted treasure chests are thrown in the corners, from which all kinds of treasures are squeezed out. If ordinary people saw such a scene, they would have fainted with excitement, but Ye Feng had no intention of being greedy.

He is not short of money, these things are not considered "treasures" in the concept, or even the same as garbage. Having experienced the treasure house of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, those precious treasures of heaven and earth are worthy of the word "hidden treasure". Compared with the latter, the former can only be regarded as the small treasury of the rich.

"Is that all there is to it?" Ye Feng shook his head.

Master Xixing looked a little annoyed, "Master Ye doesn't like this? These are the savings of my Xixing Temple family for a hundred years."

As soon as he spoke, the leaves fell out of the wind and almost laughed out loud. As a great family of Onmyoji, they actually regard these mortal things as treasures? Just a big joke! The real treasure is probably still hidden in some dark room.

He shook his head and walked forward, sucked a piece of gold into his hand, squeezed it lightly, turned into gold powder under the sharp sword energy, and sprinkled it from his fingers.

"I didn't expect the dignified Xixingji family to have the same face and face as ordinary people. It's really eye-opening."

Before the gold powder fell to the ground, it spontaneously ignited with a sound of "hoo", melted into gold juice, dripped into the cracks of the floor tiles, and then flowed to the corner of the wall along the trend.

"Master Ye, what are you doing!" Master Xixing was shocked, and he was speculating on the meaning of what the other party did, but what happened next made him stunned.
