Tokyo: My Hundred Demon Scroll

“Such a condensed little deity is no different from a true god.”

Konghuan himself is a celestial fox who has attained divinity, so he is very clear about what a minor god means.

It's important to understand that benevolent deities exist in the fourth dimension, making them impossible for ordinary people to see.

Even if it's an illusion, it's impossible to reach the fourth level on its own.

As for now, Yingcao has descended from the fourth level to the second level of the soul space.

This is why Miyako was able to see and touch her.

"Is it a god?"

"She's so small and cute."

Miyako looked at Yingcao with bright, expectant eyes: "Did you find anything, Yingcao-chan?"

The curse is located between the third and fourth dimensions.

Although it was invisible to the naked eye, Gu Yun believed in Yingcao's abilities. She was a minor benevolent deity, and even a true god might not be as sensitive to curses as she was.

"Hoo~~ho~~"

Yingcao then waved the dandelion in her hand, emitting faint green fluorescence.

"ah!"

Suddenly, Yingcao, who was examining Miyako, let out a gasp.

"what happened?"

"Lord Gu Yun, please come and see for yourself. Yingcao has never seen anything like this before."

At the same time, Gu Yun also used his spiritual vision technique to elevate his level to the world of benevolent gods.

"Xiao Gu Yun's aura has changed."

"It's a clairvoyance technique!"

Miyako and Tenko Kugen had both heard of this spell.

Because it can be seen by both the visible and the non-visible, it was defined as a 'forbidden technique' by the Ten Famous Sects.

However, this spell is notoriously difficult to learn.

Apart from the deceased Kogoro, no one else has been known to have mastered this forbidden technique.

"Xiao Gu Yun is so amazing."

First, he possessed shikigami that even he himself feared, and he could also command minor gods. Now, he has even unleashed Kogoro's spirit vision technique.

Miyako exclaimed with genuine admiration, "Truly worthy of being the teacher's grandson."

"This is!!"

On the other side, after a dozen seconds of preparation, Gu Yun had already stepped into the space of the benevolent god.

Here, Gu Yun saw the curse that clung to Miyako.

That wasn't ordinary black smoke; it was rooted in her body, like a black flower, taking root in her kidneys and blooming in her heart.

This flower is very special; it looks like it was carved from crystal, and while it is beautiful, it also has a touch of allure.

In short, it doesn't seem like anything good; it feels very ominous.

"Eh~~"

Gu Yun told Miyako what he had seen, and she wasn't too surprised: "So the legend is true. The ancestors of the Mitsuchi family made a deal with a certain god."

"Hmph, a bunch of idiots!"

This time, even Kong Huan couldn't laugh.

The Heavenly Fox hates the Mitsumi clan that sealed it away, but it doesn't want the kind and innocent Miyako to be harmed.

"The water rituals of the Mitsuchi family were once renowned throughout the country for their power."

"But now, neither the magic of the Mitsuchi family nor the guardian women are as powerful as they used to be."

Tianhu Konghuan fought with the ancestors of the Sanchui family and was then sealed away by them, so he can clearly feel the difference between hundreds of years ago and now.

After the Mitsumi family broke away from the Five Elements Clan, they made a deal with a certain deity in order to preserve their own strength.

"Kid, you're saying this flower takes root in the kidneys, right?"

"Ah."

Gu Yun nodded. He could see it, but he couldn't understand it, so he needed an experienced celestial fox to explain it.

"That is the Water Spirit Flower."

Tianhu Konghuan asked again, "Is the color black?"

"black."

"Tsk."

Kong Huan said in a deep voice, "A normal water spirit flower should be blue."

Hundreds of years ago, the ancestors of the Mitsuchi family made a deal with a certain god, implanting the Water Spirit Flower into the bodies of their clansmen, thus gaining the magic to manipulate water vapor at will.

However, the human body is made of flesh and blood, and water in the Five Elements represents Yin, and women are also Yin.

With yin on top of yin, how could their bodies possibly withstand it?

If it is a normal Water Spirit Flower, it will transform the host into a Water Spirit body. In this way, the spiritual power inside the body will resonate with the water vapor in the outside world, and there will be no more damage.

However, this water elemental power is not something that the Mitsuchi family is born with.

"That unknown god is clearly not so kind."

Konghuan: "He continuously absorbs life force from the women of the Mitsumi family until the entire clan is wiped out."

"Then, if we remove the Water Spirit Flower..."

Gu Yun raised this possibility.

"Miyako will die."

Tianhu immediately rejected Gu Yun's suggestion, as the Water Spirit Flower had coexisted with Miyako since she was an infant.

This thing is like a special spiritual root, a kind of talent.

However, due to the covenant with the gods, the Mitsuchi family must pay a heavy price.

"If it's that troublesome, why don't we just forget about it?"

Miyako was not afraid of death, and she didn't want Gu Yun to worry about her: "Alright, let's continue talking about Sora-chan."

"Shut up!"

Konghuan and Guyun spoke at the same time again, startling Miyako.

"Sora-chan is one thing, but how did Kotani Kumo become like this too?"

Miyako never expected that Gu Yun, despite being a child, could be so serious that his aura instantly overwhelmed her, just like when facing Iijima-sensei.

"juvenile."

Kong Huan changed how she addressed Gu Yun.

It slowly rose to its feet, then bowed its head to him: "I want to ask you for a favor."

Gu Yun knew very well that it wanted him to save Miyako.

"I…"

Gu Yun's personality is actually quite laid-back; he's not usually inclined to argue with people.

This time, however, he felt he was facing a test.

It's like a mathematician encountering a difficult problem, which instantly ignites his fighting spirit.

"I don't know what to do."

"But I'm willing to give it a try."

Gu Yun's idea was simple: since he had met Miyako, who was his grandfather's student, and the Mitsuchi family and the Iijima family had a deep friendship.

If Gu Yun were incapable, he wouldn't interfere.

However, now…

"I've already seen it, and I won't be satisfied if I don't do my best!"

"Crackling sound".

Kong Huan looked up and smiled, "You've grown to like me, little one."

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Konghuan said, "I couldn't see it before, so I was powerless to do anything, but with you, perhaps we can really end this curse in Miyako's generation."

"Do you have any idea?"

Gu Yun had no doubt about this. Kong Huan had lived for thousands of years, and her experience far exceeded Gu Yun's imagination.

"Alright, Sora-chan, stop talking."

Miyako interrupted their conversation. Her expression changed from her previous nonchalant demeanor to a solemn one. "What is the price to pay for taking something from the gods?" she asked.

"Whether it's you or Xiao Guyun, I don't want either of you to get hurt."

Miyako refused to allow the two of them to take such a huge risk for her sake: "So, let's end it here..."

Chapter 29 Miyako, I'm sorry to have troubled you.

"This guy…"

Watching Miyako's departing figure, Tenko let out a strange laugh: "Still the same as before, hehehe."

"Little one, I'm sorry about earlier, for asking without permission."

"So, what's the price?"

"It has little to do with you; I'm the only one who will pay the price."
