Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

If someone like Gu Yun were in the era of powerful, secluded clans in ancient times, he would surely have been subjected to a powerful seal.

While the reclusive sorcerer is not adept at dealing with human warlocks, he still possesses some methods to counter them.

The closed-door secret technique is a powerful sealing technique comparable to the Daoist reversal secret method.

"Unfortunately, times have changed. Today's hermit masters don't have that kind of courage."

To put it bluntly, the hermit is nothing more than a sacrificial offering left behind by benevolent deities to purify the world, serving as the first line of defense against the corrupt world.

Miketsu didn't pay much attention to the plan to seal off the Gate of the Turbid World; she only knew a little about it.

"Their power, in the final analysis, is actually given to them by me."

The essence of the method of closing the door is to use the power of purifying the world to counteract the turbid world, forcibly closing the door to the turbid world, thereby interrupting the gestation of natural disasters.

If Miketsuhime wishes, she can take back this favor at any time.

"Let's not. They didn't do anything wrong."

Gu Yun's domineering attitude towards his own shikigami and his habit of digging up other people's ancestral graves at the drop of a hat have become somewhat commonplace.

At first, Gu Yun even tried to educate them.

But gradually, Gu Yun realized one thing: the decisions made by Yan Ling and Yu Zan Jin were really correct.

Others might think that killing an entire family right off the bat is too tyrannical.

However, this is already the weakest of Kotodama and Miketsu's abilities.

Even a seemingly ordinary blow after they let the water out of the water would be a devastating blow to an ordinary person.

It's not that they don't control themselves.

Instead, we should be even more restrained and simply tell them not to make a move.

Miketsu: I think you're making things difficult for us, the will of the world!

"Hello big brother, my name is Munakata Sota, and I am working hard to become an excellent hermit."

"Well, hello, hello."

Gu Yun patted the boy's head. He always took care of his juniors, and was especially polite. Gu Yun had a very good first impression of Cao Tai.

“I also have many young children in my family,” Gu Yun said. “I have long admired the reclusive master, and I can let the children move around more often.”

"This is none of your business, young master Iijima."

"it's okay no problem."

Gu Yun smiled and said, "Once the new association is officially established, it will be much easier for exorcists to communicate with each other."

"The exorcism world is currently facing a talent shortage. If new blood can flow in, people will likely be more in sync when problems arise in the future."

"Besides, I'm quite interested in the closed-door exorcism ritual."

Tonight's banquet, ostensibly a gathering for exchange among individuals, was actually more like Higa Kotoko introducing the Ten Famous Sects and a host of exorcism schools to Gu Yun, allowing him to become familiar with them.

Gu Yun has no need to take too much initiative with families like the Abe family, Tsuchimikado family, Mikadoin family, and Asakura family.

He was extremely familiar with the principles of Yin and Yang.

Gu Yun has handed over all the responsibility of dealing with them to the Shangluo people, while he himself has retreated behind the scenes to watch the show.

The Ubuyashiki and Daigo families are families that developed cutting-edge technology.

The former's breathing technique and the latter's living puppet were astonishing, even to Gu Yun, who was amazed by the wisdom of his predecessors who could create such things.

As for the reclusive type…

Gu Yun's intention to curry favor stemmed mainly from the fact that being a hermit was indeed a good profession.

A sorcerer system specifically designed to deal with natural disasters.

Whether for prevention or for firefighting after a battle, the method of closing doors is of great significance.

In addition, it was because Gu Yun knew that he might need the help of the hermit in the future.

The most recent event was the awakening mission of the Great Tengu, which involved a typhoon-level storm at sea.

Before that, Gu Yun had to go overseas to find the information in order to complete this task.

He's been quite busy these days and hasn't had a moment to finish it.

In response, Yanling repeatedly suggested to Gu Yun that he deliberately create a great storm to awaken the Great Tengu.

Unfortunately, Gu Yun declined.

A typhoon can have so many butterfly effects that even the futuristic Gu Yun can't foresee them all.

Gu Yun has always had a bottom line in her actions.

To dig such a huge pit just to summon the Great Tengu is unwise and extremely selfish.

In contrast, having a reclusive master handle the task would eliminate these problems.

A hermit can close the door to the corrupt world, but he can also open it.

With his knowledge of disasters in various places, Gu Yun could easily ask them to help him open a door to the turbid world on the sea.

The gates of this turbid world have opened, and the turbid currents have surged into the human realm.

This process is not instantaneous, and the formation of a disaster does not happen overnight; a typhoon does not form as soon as the door is opened.

No way, it can't be that fast!

The advantage of the secret method of opening the door lies in this.

The gates to the turbid world have opened, a typhoon is brewing, and the Great Tengu has been successfully summoned.

Then, as long as the gatekeeper closes the gate in time, the typhoon that was forming will vanish in an instant.

All of this happened in an alternate world, unrelated to the present world.

In reality, no typhoon formed, but for Gu Yun's scrolls and Ling Ge, a typhoon did indeed occur.

It's like a bug; if you use it well, not only can you accomplish this with Ōtengu's Typhoon Valley Cloud, but you can also copy it completely whenever you encounter a shikigami that needs to deal with natural disasters in the future.

Therefore, Gu Yun planned to treat the Munakata clan, who led the closed-door master, better.

If possible, he even wanted to train a private tutor for the Iijima family.

Gu Yun thought it would be wise to consult with Yuzhanjin about this matter, to see if she could bestow upon his children a blessing to cleanse them of the filth of the world.

Chapter 274 This money is clean.

The banquet continued into the evening, and Higa Kotoko introduced Gu Yun to other schools and families that had a considerable reputation in the exorcism world.

The exorcists didn't put on airs; they all adopted the proper attitude and kept trying to curry favor.

These self-proclaimed exorcists, who consider themselves aloof and detached, don't even care about power and influence.

Pure power, like that of Yoh Asakura, will be respected and feared, but will not be groveled before.

However, when a person has both worldly power and the strength to crush everyone else...

There's nothing shameful about being humble and subservient to such a monstrous being, is there?

"Everyone!"

Finally, Kotoko Higa brought up the main event of the evening: "From now on, the rewards for the Association's missions will be tripled."

"three times?!"

"Sigh~~"

"So this is the Iijima zaibatsu? They're really rolling in money!"

Exorcists don't have an easy life. Because they know about the karma of the afterlife, they feel it's extremely unfair to sacrifice their future for the pleasures of this life.

Throughout history, there have been many powerful sorcerers who were blinded by worldly interests, leading them to commit unforgivable crimes.

Such people will all fall into hell and suffer endless torture.

Those like the death row inmates in Infernal Affairs fall into this category.

Therefore, in the eyes of sorcerers who know that doing bad things in life will bring retribution after death, it is extremely unwise to sacrifice one's virtue for money.

But things are different now.

The Iijima family made their money without using magic or harming the interests of others.

The blessings of the gods and the protection of the monsters are more like good fortune and blessings.

Simply put, Fukuzawa is a domain-type buff.

It will affect everyone, everything, and all things related to the person who is blessed, thus guiding them toward a positive outcome in the unseen realm.

This is why blessings and protection will not harm others or cause resentment.

The rise of the Iijima family benefited not only members like Tamaki Iijima, but also collaborators and those who worked for the Iijima Group.

On a larger scale, almost everyone in the world will benefit to some extent.

Two companies were fighting, one of which went bankrupt, and a senior executive of that company committed suicide by jumping off a building.

Later, the two companies merged into one.

Employees in bankrupt companies, except for a very few who suffer losses, can still keep their jobs and even get promoted and receive a raise.

It's certainly impossible to avoid harming others completely.

But the concept of good fortune lies in the fact that a few suffer while the majority are happy.

Moreover, this kind of suffering is not indiscriminate or aimless; its target is very precise: the enemy who is in conflict with the blessed person.

Since they are enemies, we must be ruthless and merciless.

"The Iijima family truly lives up to its reputation as a family blessed by the gods."

The Iijima family's wealth and resources are untainted by worldly corruption; they are pure, and even if one takes them, one will not be bound by cause and effect.

In Japan, the concept of cause and effect is generally referred to as 'karma'.

In the warlock's concept, "forming a bond" is actually very broad; many things can be considered as forming a bond.

There is another word, "缘结" (yuánjié).
