At this moment, Momo also elegantly uttered the name of his elegant move.

"Salted Fish Thrust!"

218 I'm in a bit of a rush

Salted fish stab?

This name is anything but elegant!

Even if the onlookers didn't have the cultural background of Mo Mo's previous life, upon hearing the words "salted fish," they knew that the name of this move was definitely not elegant.

But this seemingly ordinary move easily disrupted Inubashiri Momiji's final, powerful attack. Judging from Inubashiri Momiji's utterly incredulous expression, one could feel the immense impact this situation had on her.

Mo Mo continued walking forward, gently poking at the barrier each time. The light barrier, which could have banished everything, burst like a soap bubble, leaving it powerless to resist.

In this process, Momiji Inuhachi went from disbelief to despair, and finally to numbness.

"What...what kind of power is this?"

As Momo passed by Inuzomi, who had completely given up on testing him, she collapsed to the ground, exhausted of her power and demonic energy. However, she would never be satisfied until she knew what power Momo had used.

"The power of black mud."

Momo uttered a strange word, leaving Inuzoki Momiji completely baffled. However, Inuzoki Momiji didn't ask any further questions. This was Momo's power; even if Momo didn't want to say more, no one could criticize her.

However, what Inuzoki Momiji didn't know was that Momo was telling the truth.

While rescuing Remilia, Momo used quantum light to simulate the operation of countless abilities, finally finding a mode that could counteract the black mud. Under this simulation, the usually calm and gentle quantum light displayed an extremely violent side, perfectly offsetting the insane magic you possessed.

This very mechanism allows Momo to unleash moves similar to the "Friendship-Breaking Punch," a technique used to seduce women. As long as the magical power can be affected by the black mud, Momo can achieve the same effect with quantum light. The only difference is that the effect won't be as impressive, since this is a clash between two systems.

"The power of fun."

As Momo walked step by step past Inuzomire, countless yokai cast awe-inspiring glances at her. Inuzomire's power already terrified many yokai, yet she could so effortlessly destroy everything. The unknown inspires awe, and Momo had already commanded the respect of these yokai.

The Heavenly Demon also watched Mo Mo with great interest. She couldn't see the power behind Mo Mo, which made her even more interested in him.

"Inuzo Momiji was defeated, and Momo was victorious. I wonder if there are any young people in our Tengu clan who are willing to try and test just how strong our testers really are?"

Although the Heavenly Demon's words were a question, they could be interpreted as a joke. However, when her words reached the ears of the countless Tengu of the Tengu clan, they immediately took on a different meaning.

Lord Heavenly Demon wants to know the full extent of Mo Mo's power!

Realizing this, the Tengu immediately stepped onto the arena. Even though they weren't originally enthusiastic about stopping Momo and Aya Shameimaru, the Tengu's current intention was enough for them to fight Momo with all their might.

Mo Mo naturally understood that the Heavenly Demon was deliberately making things more difficult for him, and he had no objection or anger about it. To Mo Mo, it made no difference whether the enemy in front of him was Inuzoku Momiji or any other Tengu, whether it was a single Tengu or a group of Tengu.

Momo is standing here today to smash everything!

"Come on, Wenwen is waiting for me!"

Mo Mo's words caused the Tengu, who had appeared simultaneously and were still hesitating about who would strike first, to change their expressions. Although they had attacked Mo Mo because of the Heavenly Demon's wish, as Tengu, they still possessed pride and restraint. However, Mo Mo's words instantly ignited the anger of all the Tengu, and in their rage, they no longer cared about their pride and restraint.

In an instant, all sorts of weapons attacked Mo Mo, and countless demonic powers coalesced into many attack moves that Mo Mo had never heard of before, engulfing Mo Mo in a sea of ​​fireworks and explosions.

After all, the Tengu clan isn't just comprised of Aya Shameimaru and Momiji Inubashiri. Only three Tengu officially appear in the original Gensokyo story, but each Tengu already possesses unique abilities. Furthermore, these three aren't inherently special within the Tengu clan, which suggests that the rest of the Tengu, even if not as powerful as Aya Shameimaru and Momiji Inubashiri, aren't far behind.

It's just that the difference in abilities leads to different fighting styles and combat strengths.

In an instant, they were attacked by more than a dozen tengu, and in an instant, they were overwhelmed by various attacks. Even the candidate heroic spirits who had just thrown Momo out were taken aback. Ibuki Suika and Hoshiguma Yuugi, the two oni kings who were familiar with the power of the tengu clan, stood up with furrowed brows, because they knew that when hit by various attacks, there would always be one or two abilities that hit their weaknesses.

The reason why the Oni clan was overthrown and driven out of the Youkai Mountain by the Tengu clan was because the Oni clan was gradually declining while the Tengu clan was growing stronger, and the power of the two sides gradually became disproportionate.

"Don't worry, don't worry. Good people don't live long, but bad people live a long life. That guy Dad has ruined everyone here. We haven't held him accountable yet, so he can't bear to leave us like this."

Kaguya Houraisan lay lazily on Fujiwara no Mokou's lap, patting her knees, and said, "Mommy, Mommy, don't be nervous. Your thighs are so tight they're hurting my cheeks. If you want to push, wait until you're with Daddy... Ouch!"

Kaguya Houraisan, spouting nonsense, received a sharp rap on the head from Fujiwara no Mokou, but her words completely reassured everyone. At this point, although everyone was already a candidate Heroic Spirit, just waiting to be remodeled in the Hall of Heroes, they were now under Momo's jurisdiction.

Therefore, they could naturally sense Mo Mo's condition and clearly understood that Mo Mo had not been harmed at this time.

As expected, after Momo was bombarded with various barrage attacks for a while, the Tengu all stopped what they were doing. After all, Momo was no longer reacting, and their anger had dissipated. They stopped because they were afraid that Momo would be killed or injured by the group.

Unfortunately, after they stopped fighting, they found Momo leaning on his cane, adjusting his red top hat. The slight displeasure on his lips suggested he was complaining about the Tengu's attack having left his clothes somewhat disheveled.

The tengu's anger, which had just subsided, flared up again. Just as the tengu, now truly enraged, were about to launch a second attack, the Great Tengu's voice rang out.

"Enough, step back. Haven't you realized you've already lost completely?"

The demon's stern tone startled the young tengu, who then looked at Mo Mo in confusion. Only then did they realize that their attacks hadn't disturbed Mo Mo at all, nor had they even harmed him.

Centered on Momo, the ground within a one-meter radius remained intact, while the ground beyond that was pitted and scorched. Clearly, Momo could not only easily withstand the attacks of the Tengu, but could also freely expand the range of his defenses.

Realizing this, the tengu were all filled with shame. They all bowed respectfully to Momo in the tengu clan's salute and then withdrew. Even the exhausted Inuzoku Momiji silently retreated and joined the guard's ranks, looking at Momo with a complicated expression.

Is this the end?

Momo took a few more steps forward, and was not far from where the Tenma and the Great Tengu were sitting. If Momo looked up to the side, he could even clearly see the cage where Aya Shameimaru was sitting, as well as the smiles of the four bridesmaid tengu girls around the cage.

"Your strength is beyond reproach. You have proven that you are strong enough to stand on equal footing with our Tengu clan, and are not just a weak human."

The Demon King responded to Mo Mo in a deep voice. Mo Mo smiled faintly but did not reveal the subtext of the Demon King's words.

Now Momo has proven that he possesses power surpassing that of ordinary tengu. But what kind of result will Momo prove if he continues to prove himself? Momo is naturally not worried about facing several great tengu, but unfortunately, the great tengu have no intention of going up on stage to fight Momo, let alone the tengu.

Winning is a matter of course, losing means losing dignity and face. It's natural that the Great Tengu wouldn't do something so thankless.

"What will be assessed next?"

The large tengu exchanged glances, and seeing that the demon had no intention of speaking again, they replied to Mo Mo, saying, "Power, wisdom, wealth, authority, and responsibility. These are the five aspects we will be testing."

"We have already acknowledged your strength. Now, which test would you like to take? Here's a piece of advice: choose carefully, as the order could lead to completely different results."

Upon hearing this, Mo Mo frowned. Different orders lead to different results?

What does it mean?

Is the content of the assessment not fixed and subject to change depending on the order of the assessments? Are these five assessment items a rule of the Tengu clan, a whim of the Tenma, or is there some deeper meaning behind them?

Mo Mo looked up at the Great Tengu and the Heavenly Demons. The Great Tengu wore ferocious masks, making it impossible to discern their true nature. However, the Heavenly Demons' petite bodies and intrigued expressions aroused Mo Mo's suspicion.

Something feels off...

Mo Mo's mind raced, and he couldn't help but look at the cage where Aya Shameimaru was. The four bridesmaids next to the cage seemed to be deliberately urging Mo Mo. They flew to the cage and placed their hands on it, as if they wanted to drag the cage away.

This attitude is as if to say, "If you don't make a decision soon, we're going to take your wife away!"

Upon seeing this, Mo Mo's heart stirred, and her eyes lit up.

He smiled slightly and said, "Actually, I'm in a bit of a hurry. How about we do the assessment together?"

219 The Great Crisis of Single Dogs

come together?

As Mo Mo finished speaking, many people gasped in surprise.

Although Mo Mo displayed formidable combat power during the test of strength, completely overwhelming the Tengu clan's challenge, everyone still perceived the Tengu clan as extremely powerful.

Now, facing even greater challenges from the Tengu clan—wisdom, wealth, power, and responsibility—Mo Mo is about to face them all together?

Where does his confidence come from?

"Haha, that's interesting."

The Heavenly Demon laughed heartily and said, "Since this is your own request, then we have no reason to refuse. However, you must be prepared. Wealth, power, responsibility, and wisdom are all indispensable. Only when you are approved by me will you be qualified."

After saying that, the Heavenly Demon clapped his hands, and the four tengu bridesmaid girls flying next to Aya Shameimaru's cage, as if they had received a command, landed in front of Mo Mo.

"Next, they will be in charge of the tests. Among the five tests, they represent wisdom, wealth, power, and responsibility. You need to figure out what each of them represents and what kind of tests they will give you."

Momo gazed at the four tengu, and they returned his gaze with equally bright eyes, smiles of various kinds playing on their lips. Undoubtedly, the elegantly dressed tengu girls were, besides Aya Shameimaru's Kagoro, the most eye-catching figures at the moment, and they displayed their beauty without any hesitation.

Mo Mo looked at the girls and was somewhat troubled.

Judging solely by the girls' appearances is clearly inappropriate; each of the four girls' elaborate costumes has subtle differences. However, based on Momo's limited knowledge, she was unaware of the meanings behind these details in the Tengu clan's attire. Even Momo hadn't considered asking Aya Shameimaru about this.

To Mo Mo's dismay, all four girls looked at him with smiles, but none of them seemed inclined to speak. This meant that Mo Mo would have to find the questions himself for this assessment; perhaps this was part of the intelligence test.

Wisdom, wealth, power, and status.

Each of the four bridesmaids represents one of the challenges, and Mo Mo's current task is to find a breakthrough. However, instead of finding a breakthrough, Mo Mo turns to look at Aya Shameimaru's cage.

The five assessment questions are now clear: wisdom, wealth, power, status, and strength. Momo has already passed the strength assessment. However, what Momo is concerned about is, since the four bridesmaids represent wisdom, wealth, power, and status, what does Aya Shameimaru represent? Does she represent strength?

Aya Shameimaru is definitely not qualified to represent power. After all, although Aya Shameimaru's power is considered relatively strong in Gensokyo, there are certainly quite a few Tengu who are stronger than Aya Shameimaru in the Tengu clan.

Of course, it's also possible that Mo Mo is overthinking it. Aya Shameimaru doesn't represent anything. The idea that the four bridesmaids represent four aspects other than power is just a concept that Tenma or Ootengu came up with on a whim, and it doesn't have any deeper meaning.

However, Mo Mo felt that something was not right.

What exactly is wrong?

Mo Mo felt that the Heavenly Demon was trying to tell him something through this strange method. Or perhaps the Heavenly Demon wanted to convey some information to Mo Mo, but couldn't do so directly; it had to take a roundabout, very roundabout way, so that it could avoid something.

what exactly is it?

Mo Mo's face remained expressionless, but a hint of caution had crept into his eyes. With a thought, another Mo Mo appeared in a hidden corner of Monster Mountain. Accompanying him was the last person Mo Mo had encountered in the afterlife, Sanae Kochiya.

“Time is limited,” a large tengu said. “Although we don’t want to appear too harsh, this test cannot be allowed to continue indefinitely. There is still some time before noon. You must find a breakthrough before noon.”

"Otherwise, we'll fail this test, Momo."

Upon hearing this, Mo Mo brought his consciousness back to the scene and looked up at the sun. The sun was still some distance from reaching due south, estimating it would take about half an hour. This wasn't a lot of time, but considering that the Great Tengu was only there to give Mo Mo a breakthrough, it was already quite a long time.

"A breakthrough..."

Mo Mo's gaze swept over the four bridesmaids, who continued to smile at him, none of them showing any intention of speaking. Furthermore, Mo Mo had no idea what the four bridesmaids were thinking, or whether they had received any orders.

In the worst-case scenario, the four bridesmaids could deliberately make things difficult for Mo Mo, remaining silent and refusing to ask him any questions, which would inevitably lead to Mo Mo failing the test. In the best-case scenario, if Tengu himself supports Mo Mo and Aya Shameimaru's wedding, then Mo Mo only needs a trigger, and the four bridesmaids will surely reveal the relevant information.

Therefore, rather than seeing this as a test for Mo Mo, it is more accurate to say that this reflects the attitude of the Tengu clan, or rather, the Tenmo and the Great Tengu, towards Mo Mo, their son-in-law.

That makes the problem simple.

The real breakthrough doesn't lie with the four bridesmaids, but with the Heavenly Demon and the Great Tengu who control everything. If Mo Mo tries to find a breakthrough with the bridesmaids and they remain silent, Mo Mo will be in a difficult situation.

“Lord Heavenly Demon,” Mo Mo looked past the bridesmaids and toward the Heavenly Demon, and said, “May I ask a small question?”

"Please feel free to speak."

"Actually, what I want to ask is whether this assessment, or rather, my wedding with Wenwen, should be conducted entirely according to the customs and traditions of the Tengu clan? While it is only natural to follow local customs, could you consider bringing in the customs of my hometown as well? After all, this is a major event in my life, and I can't help but want to savor the taste of my hometown."

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Demon was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting Mo Mo to make such a request. She then asked with great interest, "What are the customs of your hometown? Can you tell me? I'm very interested. Up until now, we don't actually know your specific origins, so we can only perform all the rituals according to the customs of the Heavenly Dog Clan."
