Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

So, ignoring the four unconscious Tianxie Gui siblings, Yingcao took one in each hand and could even carry two more on her shoulders: "I'm really sorry to take them out."

"Oh…"

Gu Yun looked at the tiny Yingcao, who forcibly dragged away four Heavenly Evil Ghosts roughly her size, and exclaimed, "Who said I just woke up this little grass? Such innate divine strength, truly worthy of being my grass father!"

Yingcao's strange strength is Gu Yun's own fault.

When he was waking the child, he was probably creating the child with the "grass father" template in mind.

This also resulted in Yingcao's healing ability improving at a very stable rate over the past four years, while her strength increased at an astonishing speed.

"Sometimes, I also think that Yingcao is a bit scary."

Tamaki Iijima made a comment, but it was just a joke.

Yingcao is so cute, how could she possibly be a tomboy?

"But your magic is getting more and more powerful."

Walking through the pure white passage, Inugami and Hakuro led the way, followed by Kūgen and Gyokuyō.

With this lineup, the safety level is off the charts.

Tamaki Iijima looked around. She had been by her father's side for so long, but she had never witnessed such magical magic.

"Because we've done special research on it."

Gu Yun said, "The interdimensional space is different from the complete dimension. It allows humans from the lower realm to pass through. I created the interdimensional space-crossing technique based on this."

There are seven known complete dimensions: the material world, the timeline from Hiruko-sama to the timeline of time.

Within this realm, there exist special realms such as 1.5 future lives, 2.5 illusory lives, and 3.5 eternal lives.

These three places are open to the general public.

Just like when Tamura-kun encountered the Slit-Mouthed Woman, his existence in the real world was altered by the rules of ghost stories.

In other words, he did indeed enter the virtual world.

The same applies to Chihiro in Spirited Away, where the Ogino family breaks into the bathhouse located in the afterlife.

This shows that, through special methods, life forms from different dimensions may indeed have the potential to travel to the upper realm and enter the lower realm.

"I guess I can understand."

Iijima Tamaki wasn't a complete novice anymore. Although she couldn't cast spells, she had a fairly good understanding of the basic concepts.

After all, he comes from a family that exorcises spirits.

If you react with the same as ordinary people and make a fuss, that would be truly unbelievable.

"We can't stay for too long."

Gu Yun's Spirit Vision Transcending Technique has many uses, and paving the way for the yokai of Kyoto is one of them.

"As for the fourth floor, it may take about seven or eight minutes to walk up."

The mother and son walked and talked, sharing interesting stories they had encountered in different worlds.

Iijima Tamaki talks about the company's and group's progress, while Gu Yun mostly listens and occasionally offers his own opinions.

During this time, Tamaki Iijima repeatedly asked when she would be willing to inherit the family business, take over the Iijima Group, and steer this capital empire.

"Once that person comes to power, the next ten years will be the domain of the Iijima family."

Tamaki Iijima has sufficient funds and a plan; she is far from being completely satisfied.

"If you like it, then keep doing it."

“I’d much rather manage the portfolio with my son,” Tamaki Iijima said. “That’s my dream!”

"Hi hi hi~~"

Gu Yun gave a few perfunctory replies.

He really didn't want to get involved in these things.

After all, the purpose of starting a company is to make money. Now he has no worries about food and clothing and can have whatever he wants.

What's the point of going back to work in an office? Are you just building yourself a prison to sit in?

"Ugh…"

Seeing that Gu Yun still refused, Iijima Tamaki could only sigh and say, "Fine, I won't force you to do things you don't want to do."

"Yeah, yeah."

Seeing that her mother was somewhat disappointed, Gu Yun had no choice but to compromise: "I'll come and spend a month with you every year."

"Hey?!"

Tamaki Iijima doubted she had misheard, but after receiving confirmation from Taniguchi, she exclaimed in surprise, "Really?!"

"Don't assign me any too much trouble."

"No problem, no problem!"

Iijima Tamaki wouldn't cause much trouble; her wish is for her son to be able to influence the business and political worlds alongside her.

The mother and son joined forces to manipulate people's hearts with money and power.

The thought of her son playing with her made Tamaki Iijima immediately shout, "Maki-chan, you've won!! Tonight, we're drinking until we drop!!"

"..."

Gu Yun shrugged helplessly. She was clearly a powerful and undisputed queen in the company.

But in front of me, she acts so childish, often acting spoiled or faking tears.

However, Gu Yun also knew that his mother was only so at ease with him.

"Master, you really spoil Xiao Huan."

Walking to the side, Kong Huan and Yu Yao exchanged a private conversation. The latter smiled bitterly and said, "In the past four years, this is the only reason I've angered my master. Can I be considered to have achieved something?"

"Chirp chirp~~"

Unbeknownst to them, the group had already traversed four dimensions and arrived in the Pure World.

The door opened, revealing a bright and spacious view.

"Wow, so beautiful."

Tamaki Iijima stared in astonishment at the world outside the door.

They appeared in a forest, a place with beautiful scenery, birds singing and flowers blooming, where squirrels and other small animals could be seen darting among the branches.

Such a realistic scene made it difficult even for Gu Yun to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Is this really a high latitude?

"It feels no different from the human world."

As Iijima Tamaki was saying this, she suddenly saw humans and yokai chatting and laughing as they walked side by side on the official road outside the forest.

"Humans? There are still humans here?"

“Jingshi is the kingdom of the gods,” Yu Yao explained. “Most of the residents here were once believers of the gods. After they died, they were fortunate enough to come here and live here.”

This kind of guidance is not a one-time event, but has existed since ancient times.

In addition, given the rules of the Pure Land itself, it is also possible to have children here.

Therefore, people and things that possess faith will be chosen by the gods and thus be freed from the suffering of reincarnation.

That's right, things within the divine realm are counted separately from the afterlife and the next life.

They belong to the gods and can never fall into evil unless they are harmed by forces of four or more levels.

Powers such as ghost stories and curses have almost no effect on the beings living in the land of gods.

“Those who were guided in the past were able to leave offspring, and new people will also come here.”

"Won't the number of people just keep increasing?"

Like a young mother traveling with her child, Tamaki Iijima, upon hearing Yuyao's words, asked in confusion, "Is this a bug?"

"This problem won't occur, ring."

This time it was Konghuan's turn to speak: "Each god has a territory in the Pure World, and the number of divine subjects that can be accommodated within it is limited."

If the required number is reached, then it will be impossible to introduce new children from among people, and no new children will be born.

"I see."

Gu Yun nodded and then asked, "So, does that mean Xiao Kong and Xiao Yu also have territory in the Pure World?"

"we do not have."

The two women shook their heads and said, "Only gods who have shrines in the human world can possess land in the Pure World."

Yes, the concept of real estate has even spread to the realm of gods.

It has to be said that even gods are in the same predicament if they don't have a house; they don't even have a place to stay.

"That's easy!"

Tamaki Iijima is incredibly wealthy and powerful. If the fox spirit ladies need anything, she can arrange for ten or even a hundred shrines, let alone one.

The only problem is how to define this divine office and divine position.

If it were just about building an Inari shrine, that would be too easy.

But would this really help the fox spirit ladies?

Won't this just turn into spending money for other gods?

"It's meaningless, the ring."

Yu Yao said, "There are quite a few under the master who can possess divine kingdoms in the turbid world and the pure world."

“I, Xiao Kong, Gu Huo Niao, Bi An Hua, Xiao Hui, we all have this qualification.”

The divine kingdom of the red spider lily cannot be established in the pure world; it is a spirit, and can only create 'impure land' in the turbid world.

Doing this kind of thing doesn't do them any good.

The great demon itself is like a perpetual motion machine, capable of creating demonic and divine power out of nothing.
