The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 415 Urban Legend Part 7 ()

Inuyama Heita quietly poked his head out from behind the tombstone and observed King Kong not far away. When he saw him sitting cross-legged there motionless, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The puppet's perception was correct. He was hiding nearby. If they continued to look for him, Inuyama Heita would have to continue to escape with the help of the fox.

But fortunately, King Kong was not the kind of person who cared too much about winning or losing, and he was also very disciplined. He did not use any excessive means, so Inuyama Heita escaped.

Musashi suddenly turned his head 180 degrees without warning and looked in this direction. Inuyama Heita quickly hid himself, his heart pounding. Before entering the ghost realm, he could not beat King Kong. Only after the fox completed shaping the ghost realm in this area would he have a chance to fight with the opponent.

At this time, he heard King Kong's voice.

"Heitaro, I won't chase you. Hurry up and use all your tricks! Let's fight fair and square with our strongest postures!"

Inuyama Heita clenched his fists and thought to himself, "Yes, I will show you my newfound power!"

After shouting that sentence, Kongo ignored Musashi's reminder and sat there cross-legged with his eyes closed. More and more red lanterns were floating in the sky, and Musashi was so anxious that he almost burst into cursing. In his opinion, this kind of "fair" behavior was extremely stupid!
However, Musashi's persuasion had no effect on Kongo at all. He just waited quietly. When he opened his eyes again, he found that the scene around him had completely changed.

The originally dark and gloomy cemetery was now hung with red lanterns everywhere. Ghosts in kimonos appeared all around and walked around King Kong as if they were visiting a temple fair. These ghosts all wore white fox masks. There were old people, children, and some young people. Their laughter and joy made the surroundings extremely lively, but the rows of tombstones reminded King Kong that this was originally a cemetery and this kind of situation should not occur.

"Is it finally starting?" King Kong stood up and stretched: "I almost fell asleep."

Musashi could no longer hold back and angrily yelled, "Stupid thing! Now we have been completely dragged into the spirit world by that fox and have entered its territory! Are you satisfied now? You are asking for trouble!"

King Kong said disapprovingly: "Practice is to bring suffering upon yourself, this is the true meaning of practice. Only by overcoming difficulties can there be progress. If I can easily catch Heitaro and beat him up, then what am I doing here? This is what I want, so come on, Musashi, play your role, find Heitaro, and see if we can make progress in this adversity!"

Musashi calmed down, turned his head and looked in one direction, and said, "No need to look for it, it's right there."

King Kong turned around and saw Inuyama Heita, also wearing a white fox mask, standing not far away.

"So you're ready?" King Kong grinned. "You're not the only one who's become stronger in the spirit world, Heitaro. Show me what you can do!"

He roared and rushed forward like a bull. Musashi seemed to suddenly sense something and wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

A burst of golden light burst out from King Kong's body, and it hit Inuyama Heita, and then...

With a dull bang, King Kong was bounced back and looked forward in confusion. There was no figure of Inuyama Heita there, only a solid big tombstone.

Musashi covered his face and said, "Idiot, are you so impatient to die? That's obviously an illusion!"

Kongo was also a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I can't feel the difference. I thought Heitaro was ready to face me head-on. Musashi, can you find them?"

Musashi said, "This is the divine realm! The abilities of evil spirits like me will be suppressed. The best I can do is prevent you from being controlled by illusions and doing things that will lead to your own death. At the same time, I can remind you where there is danger. The rest depends on you, unless... you can let me eat a few souls."

King Kong nodded and said, "I understand. I'll ask you to be on guard then."

"Hey, did you hear me clearly!" Musashi shouted, "I said I want to eat!" King Kong turned a deaf ear and walked forward, while carefully observing the masked ghosts. Now his blood and energy were suppressed by Musashi. Although he was still a little dull, he was no longer unable to feel anything like before. He was also exercising his perception ability.

"Sorry." He stopped a ghost, reached out and took off the other's mask, and found that it was not Inuyama Heita, but just an old man, so he ignored him and continued walking forward.

"How long will it take you to find it like this?" Musashi said, "Remove the seal a little, and I can release my power to help you find it!"

King Kong asked, "If I unlock part of the seal, you won't do anything bad?"

"Of course not!" Musashi said, "My life is still in your hands."

King Kong thought for a while, then said, "Okay, don't lie to me."

"Absolutely not." Musashi vowed.

Then, King Kong pointed his finger at the puppet's head and chanted a spell.

There were crackling sounds, and several arms with corpse spots extended from the puppet. Musashi fell to the ground like a giant centipede. At this time, the main body of the puppet became the centipede's head and body, and those arms became its dense legs.

King Kong said with disdain: "What a disgusting existence. I regret it a little."

Even he knew that the number of these arms represented how many evils Musashi had done. It seemed that this guy was really sinful. No wonder the Hoshiba family sealed it up.

Musashi smiled with satisfaction, showing his fangs and sharp teeth, and said: "Thank you, Lord Kongo... But I'm really hungry! I can't stand it anymore!"

It turned and pounced on the ghost of a child, opened its huge mouth, aimed at the other's head and bit off it in one bite.

"Hey!" King Kong wanted to stop the other party anxiously, but stopped again.

Because he saw Musashi had started rolling on the ground.

"So cold! So cold!" Blue flames came out of Musashi's mouth, making it roll on the ground in pain. Looking at the child ghost again, his head was gone, and a blue flame was burning quietly on his neck. The blue flame wrapped around the child ghost's body, transforming it into a mocking fox's face, and then gradually disappeared.

King Kong couldn't help but laugh: "It's Fox Fire? Hahahahaha~ Musashi, this is the price of greed."

"Damn it! Damn fox!" Musashi yelled, "I don't believe it! I've been hungry for so many years, I must have something to eat!"

As he said this, he pounced on another ghost, a middle-aged ghost wearing a white fox mask.

The middle-aged man was very cautious. When he saw the other person rushing towards him, he didn't know how to dodge and was in a daze.

——Just like a timid office worker.
