As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

Although she is still very weak now, her future is promising. The initial fusion of spirit and body also means that it is unlikely that her mind and body will go out of control.

"You lack experience and don't know that the appearances of gods are actually incredibly diverse. And it's very difficult for those who are spiritualists to merge with gods while still maintaining their human identity."

"The human body is like a red line in water. Any movement or interference will cause the red line to deviate involuntarily, so the human body is easily mutated. Just like Tamamo-no-Mae was a shaman at first, but she was unwilling to advance to the shaman level in a step-by-step manner. She chose to follow the instinct of physical evolution. And the first thing she fused with was a fox-shaped god, so her body mutated into a nine-tailed fox. After that, she became extremely cruel and gradually forgot her excellence, going further and further down the path of inhumanity."

This situation often occurred in ancient times. She was most familiar with the ancient civilization opposite her. In the primitive era, the first spiritualists all had abnormal physical characteristics.

For example, Xuanyuan, Shennong, and Chiyou.

But that's because the lineage of spiritualists is still incomplete and extremely crude, which leads to this phenomenon.

Over time, the system of psychics gradually became more complete, but some psychics still admired this unusual characteristic, believing it to be the appearance of a deity.

"But this kind of evolution is useless. No matter how strong the physical body is, it cannot resist the call of the spirit world..."

"Once you become a god, you can unleash this trait to its fullest potential, which will counteract the attraction of the spirit world and free you from all constraints."

Suzuka retorted angrily, "I won't let you manipulate me!" She wasn't a puppet.

Amaterasu laughed and said, "You will. Time is running out. The Shadow of the Past is coming soon. You have no choice but to become stronger, or you will die."

"Hmph, I'm going to die anyway, why should I work for you!"

"Do you think you're going to die? No, I won't kill you. This extraordinary quality can't be inherited through possession. I've chosen fusion, just like the fusion of spirit and flesh."

"The divine blood within you is the bridge connecting you and me. Then, you will be me, and I will be you..."

Amaterasu slowly lowered her head, her gaze meeting that of Ise Suzuka, whose pupils had constricted, and she revealed a faint smile.

……

"Yitani Miko... Yotsuya Miko..."

The ethereal and illusory prayers echoed endlessly in this boundless sea of ​​darkness.

Yuria wandered like a ghost in the chaotic depths, exploring endlessly downwards, muttering the name of Yotsuya Miko.

In this most primordial secret place, isolated from spirit, matter, and space.

Every time she uttered these words, a beam of light would shine down from nowhere and strike Youlia's body. The light transformed into an invisible shield, isolating her from external disturbances and allowing her to safely explore this mysterious and strange place.

Time, distance, and location all lose their meaning here.

The only constant is the lingering darkness and gloom, like a thick fog.

Suddenly, Yuria stopped in her tracks and remained motionless.

A tall figure wandered aimlessly, staggering away, not far from Yuria.

In her perception, it was a giant more than ten feet tall, but headless, with its nipples as eyes and its navel as a mouth, carrying a corroded axe that was beyond recognition, and it just missed her like that.

As Yuria watched his retreating figure, she knew in her heart that he was yet another ancient god who had been permanently lost here, having long since lost his reason and sanity; in the words of the gods, he had fallen into demonic ways.

Without further delay, she continued on her way.

"Yitani Miko... Yotsuya Miko..."

The sound of prayer gradually faded into the distance.

All gods, come swiftly to aid me; if anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu: Chapter Ninety-Nine: Humans are but illusions

The surface of the abyss was dark, chaotic and profound.

Here, there is no distinction of direction.

She is both moving forward and exploring downwards.

Yuria is like a fish living in shallow waters, now diving into the deep sea, enduring the pressure, and preparing to see what's going on.

She didn't know where this place was, but it was definitely related to the spirit world, and was suspected to be the deepest part of the spirit world.

Even ancient gods who stray into this place will lose themselves here. This is because it is filled with an extremely strange and mysterious power that can dismantle everything and silently influence the mind, turning one into a demon.

However, she was already a demon, but she completely preserved her human personality while remaining a demon.

Every time she descended to a certain depth, she felt as if her mind was teetering on the edge of a cliff, with thoughts of tearing and madness creeping into her mind. This was a reminder that she could not continue to dive, otherwise the power that maintained her rationality would collapse.

But when she recites Yotsuya Miko's true name, a mysterious power flows through her, helping her resist the mysterious forces and bringing her peace of mind.

She also tried to pronounce other people's names.

For example, she heard that a gang leader in Chiba was extremely fierce and had chased down an enemy force in broad daylight, cutting down two streets and accidentally injuring many people.

After she recited that person's name here, she did not notice anything unusual, nor did she receive any protection from any power.

But when she woke up the next day, the gang leader was gone, vanished without a trace. His sleeping place was a secret room with no windows, only a locked door, as if he had disappeared into thin air. His henchmen only found bloodstains splattered on the wall and a clump of messy hair in the room.

Faced with this bizarre situation, his men suspected it was the work of ghosts and gods. While observing the room, one of them went mad. He screamed and shouted, his face filled with fear, claiming that he saw many indescribable monsters appear from the void and take away his boss.

After he finished speaking, five more members gradually went crazy.

The incident escalated to a major point, forcing the gang to seek help from the police to detain the insane individuals in a mental hospital, while simultaneously claiming to the public that their leader had committed suicide.

Yuria knew the details of what happened because her tentacles reached there, she heard everything, and she sensed traces of the demon in that room.

Yuria finally confirmed that this place was special. Even a name, as long as it had a clear meaning, would reach the ears of the demons wandering here and have a corresponding effect.

Afterward, she conducted several more experiments and discovered a terrifying fact.

If she harbors hatred towards someone, she doesn't even need to know their real name; a basic understanding of that person is enough for her to influence their future fate through this place.

This is a terrifying ability, like the legendary Death Note.

She has come here many times, but each time, due to various unforeseen circumstances, she has been unable to reach the final destination.

This time was no exception. Since encountering the headless deity, she had met many other deities, and their numbers began to increase.

Now, she witnessed a colossal shadow lurking ahead, its size unparalleled, making even the mountains appear small in comparison. It possessed a hard shell and spines on its belly, resembling a ichthyosaur, yet its imposing form and unconscious movement dispelled the thick, fog-like darkness, releasing a suffocating sense of oppression.

It stands there, more despairing than the world's highest peak, because for her, it's simply impossible to get through.

If contact is made, the force that maintains rationality will collapse due to contact with something that should not be contacted.

Then a commotion came from behind, indicating that another demon had arrived.

Yuria gazed at this place filled with gods, then abandoned her advance. She quickly rose to the surface, and the surrounding space rapidly changed, the original rich colors gradually fading until she finally returned to the 'shallow sea area'.

This is where she was supposed to be.

However, this is not actually a shallow sea, but rather the edge of a secret place. It just looks like an ocean, but the seawater is dark.

"Yitani Miko... Yotsuya Miko..."

Yuria murmured the name, then she raised her perspective, revealing a chaotic and profound space where countless figures floated and sank, each with a different shape and color, forming cocoons that filled the ten directions of heaven and earth, densely packed.

Humans made up only a very small part of it; there were many things she couldn't recognize, or even identify what they were.

At this moment, all life was asleep in the cocoon, uttering unconscious murmurs that formed a chaotic and frantic sound. Yet, within these murmurs, she felt a sense of space rippling, with the misty things that constituted the space surging naturally like the tide.

Yuria looked around; she was the only one awakened here.

All other life forms are asleep, and countless cocoon-like life forms stretch to the horizon, seemingly without end.

Billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions—these numbers are insufficient to encompass it all. It seems that all life throughout the universe, from ancient times to the present, has been floating and sinking here.

This black ocean is both illusory and real, making it impossible to be sure whether it truly exists or if it is all an illusion.

She began to lose track of which side was real.

Is it the real world filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, or this black ocean?

Should she not have woken up? Should she have fallen asleep with all living beings?

"If this is a dream, then please let this nightmare end!"

But no, the cruelty of the world is that it never changes according to individual will.

She felt a chill of despair in her heart. She looked up, but she couldn't see the sky above her; all she could see was darkness, without any light.

Countless times I've murmured to myself.

"Human civilization is nothing but an illusion..."

……

Yotsuya's mother was cleaning in her pajamas when she happened to see Miko, who was dressed neatly, coming down the stairs.

"Jianzi, are you still going out?"

She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Jianzi seemed to be becoming more and more charming. Although she was still the same calm person, she felt different when she was with her than before, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Seeing Zi brush a strand of hair aside, she nodded slightly: "Yes, I made an appointment with Hua." She planned to meet Tendo Kagura today.

"It's very chaotic outside right now, so it's best not to go out if you can avoid it."

Yotsuya's mother was very worried. Recently, Miko had been frequently away from home. She had gone to Tokyo a while ago and didn't return for a long time. If Miko hadn't called every day to let her know she was safe, she would have thought something bad had happened to her daughter.

Now, she also feels it's necessary to talk to Miko about this issue.

"Miko!" Yotsuya's mother called out to Yotsuya Miko in a stern tone as she prepared to leave.

"Ah, Mom, Kyosuke hasn't gotten up yet. I saw his room light was still on last night. He must have been playing games until midnight." Miko suddenly exclaimed. Yotsuya's mother was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shifted her attention.

You can be more lenient with daughters, but you can't be like that with boys. You have to be strict with them, otherwise you won't raise real men.

Kyosuke Yotsuya, how can you sleep at your age?

May all gods swiftly come to my aid; if I disobey, I will be punished in Fengdu: Chapter 100: If the price of appearing before you is death, then I will die without regret.

Ding Dong!

"Coming," Hiratsuka Shizuka called out weakly as she went to open the door.

Then I saw Yotsuya Miko standing prettily outside the door.

“It’s Miko…” Hiratsuka Shizuka scratched her head, unsure of what to say.

Seeing that Miko was calm and composed, she had been caught off guard last time and lost her composure, but she had now adjusted and would not release Miko again.

It's no big deal!

She comforted herself with this thought, mainly because she had no right to be angry. What Kuroko thought was none of her business; that personality was completely different from hers. Since she came back, she hadn't heard Kuroko's voice again. Kuroko thought she was probably traumatized and was now withdrawn...

She suspected that if the target hadn't been Hiratsuka Shizuka, she probably would have already exploded. That guy had been eyeing Tendo Kagura for a long time.
