My personal opinion on Gensokyo

"Although I only stayed in the darkness for a short while, through the perception of the power of yin and yang, I have basically understood the nature of the darkness outside."

Having said that, Shang Yang paused for a moment and continued to explain.

"It is 'night' itself, or rather, this darkness is the 'food of the night'."

"For non-human beings that have not transcended the realm of "the principles of this world", Tsukiyomi's "Night Food Source" will definitely cause non-human beings to be 'lost' in the darkness. Rather than using darkness itself, it is more like forcibly defining the concept of 'lost' in the essence of life swallowed by darkness.

"As for us, the concept of 'lost' cannot be defined as us. We have transcended the 'principles of this world' and are immune to forces below the level of world laws. Therefore, the 'Night Food Source' has no effect on us. It only alters the structure and laws of the space it covers. The extension and directionality of space itself have undergone various degrees of abnormality."

"It's somewhat similar to the yin-yang magic I used against the Moon Rabbit troops when we invaded the Moon City. However, Tsukiyomi's 'Night Food Root' is obviously more troublesome, because the spatial laws mutated within it are not just one, but many. My yin-yang power currently lacks the ability to instantly correct such distortions."

"And, judging by the fact that Tsukiyomi launched a precise attack the moment I appeared, neither the darkness of the Night Food Source nor the changes in the spatial structure within the Night Food Source had any effect on Tsukiyomi herself."

"In other words, this is Yue Yejian's absolute advantage here."

Hearing this, Jue sighed softly and also felt that it was difficult to deal with.

"Shang Yang, your Liang Yi can distort the distinction between inside and outside, can you take us directly to the outside of this 'Night Food Origin'?"

"Forget about the inner and outer yin and yang. Even if I wanted to use the yin and yang separation to directly tear the "Night Food Source", I couldn't do it."

The gray-haired young man, whose internal injuries had basically recovered, rubbed his hair and shook his head.

"Because of the changes in the internal spatial structure, I can't find the point of force that would separate the two yin and yang. Facing the completely integrated and 'non-existent' Night Food Origin, distorting the internal and external yin and yang, or separating the two yin and yang, is difficult to achieve. At least, it can't work within the Night Food Origin."

“Even the cause and effect aspect doesn’t work.”

Shana also shook her head at this moment and said softly.

"This is a perfectly autonomous structure, with internal and external causality completely isolated and without any correlation."

"It won't work internally..."

He did not notice the subsequent conversation between Shang Yang and Shana. After hearing "it cannot work internally", Jue subconsciously continued to think along a certain line of thought. Then, Jue grabbed Shang Yang's arm, his lavender eyes sparkling.

"Shang Yang, even if the laws of spatial directionality are altered, the actual size of the Night Food Origin cannot change, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Shang Yang nodded slightly, confirming Jue's statement, and asked in confusion.

"Jue, why are you asking this?"

"Of course, we have to prepare to break Yue Yejian's tricks."

While explaining confidently, Jue let go of Shang Yang's arm and walked to the center of the Yuanshen Qinglian in three or two steps. Before Shang Yang and Shana could react, he casually rolled up his sleeves, revealing his soft and slender white arms.

A cold light flashed across.

puff.

Jue raised his fair right hand, and his sharp nails scratched across his exposed slender white left arm.

Jue couldn't help but frown, and a 30-centimeter-long, shocking-looking narrow wound appeared on his slender white left arm.

"Jue, what are you doing?!" ×2

Because Jue's actions were too fast, the whole process took less than a blink of an eye. While Shang Yang and Shana were both sweating coldly, a large amount of dark red blood had flowed down Jue's slender white jade arms, dripping onto the bottom of the Yuanshen Qinglian.

“…Don’t scare us.”

Shang Yang didn't care and simply raised his hand to grab Jue's wrist.

However, before the young man with gray hair could make the next move, the petite black-haired girl, who was also anxious, reached into the young man's pocket, took out a roll of white gauze, pulled it open, and wrapped it around the injured arm of the girl with lavender short hair, bandaging the girl's wound.

Shang Yang's pocket is directly connected to the internal space of the "Mystery of Cause and Effect", storing various items needed in daily life. As the incarnation of the "Mystery of Cause and Effect", Shana can naturally use it easily.

"too exaggerated……"

Seeing Shang Yang and Shana hurriedly bandaging his wounds, Jue couldn't help but reveal a slightly helpless expression, and comforted them slowly.

"This kind of wound will disappear without a trace in a minute. You two don't even need to stop the bleeding or bandage it for me."

However, although Jue said this, she was still very happy when she saw Shang Yang and Shana's caring actions and read the worries in their hearts, so she comforted them.

"Don't worry, I don't intend to harm myself. I simply wish to use the mana contained in my blood to replenish the Soul Azure Lotus, allowing it to expand beyond the area encompassed by Yue Yejian's 'Night Food Source' and potentially break through it."

Volume 3: Above the Moon Sea: Chapter 135: The Arrival of "Ashihara Takaten"

After hearing Jue's explanation, Shang Yang thought for a moment and agreed with Jue's method.

"That's right. No matter how the spatial structure of the 'Night Food Origin' changes, as long as the Soul Azure Lotus is expanded in all directions until Yue Yejian's 'Night Food Origin' is absorbed into the Soul Azure Lotus, the 'Night Food Origin' will cease to exist."

Having said that, the young man with gray and messy hair looked calmly at Miss Jue, who looked very proud, and coughed.

"However, I do not approve of Jue's hasty and reckless actions. Next time before you do anything, remember to tell me. Although the Soul Azure Lotus now belongs to Jue, it is not necessary to use Jue's blood to replenish the mana. The mana contained in my blood is more compatible with the Soul Azure Lotus. Just use my blood."

"Well, Shang Yang is right," Shana also took over the conversation, trying to be serious and admonishing Jue, "I hope Jue can listen to this warning."

"Shang Yang was injured just now... Never mind, I agree..."

Hearing this, Jue sighed softly and comforted Shana in a perfunctory tone.

Then, the girl with short lavender hair gave Shang Yang and Shana a look and shook her left arm.

"Let's not talk about that for now, Shana. Tell me first, why did you have to bandage my arm wound like this?"

"……what?"

Shana was stunned by Jue's sudden question and subconsciously cast her eyes on Jue's slender white arm. What Shana saw was the arm and the left hand wrapped in gauze. Moreover, because the joints were also wrapped with several layers of gauze, Jue could not even bend his arm.

“Ah… this… this…”

Seeing this, Shana looked away embarrassedly and forced an explanation.

"This, this is a safe bandage, yes, it's a safe bandage."

Perhaps to add credibility to her words, Shana kept nodding, but the girl's words were soon exposed.

"……puff."

Seeing this scene, the young man with gray hair laughed out loud, making the petite black-haired girl's face turn pink.

The petite black-haired girl, who was so angry that she was embarrassed, simply used the young man next to her as a punching bag. She raised her little foot and kicked the young man's leg, feeling extremely embarrassed and angry.

"Do not laugh!"

Seeing this, Jue couldn't help but smile, and casually used his magic power to loosen the gauze wrapped around his arm. Under the gauze was revealed his snow-white arm, just like before the injury, without any trace of injury.

Rolling up her sleeves above her elbows, the girl with short lavender hair closed her eyes and manipulated the pale green jade lotus that was already very familiar to her.

Because of the replenishment and stimulation of the blood rich in magic power, the size of the light green jade lotus in an instant was close to the "Night Food Source" covering the wide and open area between the Yuque Palace Gate and the Yueyejian Palace.

Just as the Soul Green Lotus was about to burst Yue Yejian's "Night Food Source", the thick darkness suddenly shrank at this moment, and the brilliant starlight of the Milky Way once again sprinkled on the moon-white surface.

The goddess of the Moon City still stood on the platform in front of the Moon Night Palace, staring indifferently at the huge jade lotus, which seemed to be opening and quickly expanded to the same size as her own "Night Food Field".

Afterwards, the soul's green lotus quietly disappeared.

"Night Food" shrank into a pure black ribbon, floated in front of Yue Yejian, and slowly landed on the jade shoulder of the Moon Goddess.

The indifferent goddess looked indifferently at the young man with gray and messy hair not far away and the girls beside the two young men, and seemed a little surprised.

"He was struck head-on by the Moon Sea Pearl, which possesses all the power of Ashihara Takaten, yet he wasn't seriously injured..."

"...all the power of Ashihara Takaten."

This keyword made Shang Yang, Jue and Shana frown at the same time. They guessed a possible answer and looked at each other.

"... Could it be that what Yue Yejian has been preparing for is..." ×3

"Lord of the Monsters, I originally intended to rely on the power of Ashihara Takaten to severely injure you and cripple a quarter of your Hundred Demons Night Parade."

"But now it seems that there is no need for me to hide it anymore."

As soon as the words fell, the Moon Goddess, the Night Food Source and the God of the Moon, Tsukiyomi, once again raised her right arm and opened her jade hand. The cold and indifferent Moon Goddess seemed to have awakened an unknown mystery.

"Appear on the Moon Sea! 'Ashihara Takaten'!"

A certain concept intervenes in the objective world.

At this moment, the core of the entire Moon Capital Palace - the area around Tsukiyomi Palace - has fallen into a "different world" that is different from this world and is maintained by the laws of this world, which are different from the laws of all things.

On the outskirts of the Moon City, on the northern battlefield.

The originally silent wilderness returned to its quiet and desolate tranquility after a battle between the monsters and the Moon City garrison.

At this moment, a dark crack as long as fifty meters suddenly appeared in the sky above the Moon Sea Plain, which should have been quiet and peaceful.

The dark crack suddenly opened up, and in the dark void, countless strange huge eyeballs were scattered inside. The strange eyeballs kept turning, as if observing the situation on the Moon Sea Plain.

Seeing these strange situations, the name of this dark crack is obvious.

"Gap" is the symbol of the Yokai Sage, the great Yokai of the realm, Yakumo Yukari.

The dark "gap" suddenly expanded again, and in the originally silent space, a crisp sound like cloth being torn suddenly rang out.

A sudden, intense burst of flames erupted from within the dark "gap," and a massive, earth-shattering explosion echoed across the peaceful and quiet Moonsea Plain.

boom! ! !

The shock wave caused by the violent explosion instantly rolled up the lunar dust on the lunar plain. When the drifting lunar dust dissipated, three beautiful figures appeared one after another on the empty lunar plain.

"I didn't expect that just destroying a hypocritical world would cause such a big commotion."

The figure with dazzling golden hair, the sage of the monsters, slowly opened her folding fan to hide her playful smile.

"As expected of the Sage of the Moon City, known as the 'Brain of the Moon,' the unfathomable mystery of the 'World in a Pot' truly opened my eyes."

Although the "World in a Pot" of Yagi Eirin could not be interfered with from the outside, within the twenty minutes of the battle between Kazami Yuuka and Yagi Eirin, the extremely wise monster sage still found the key to the "World in a Pot" from the inside.

While Yakumo Yukari was distracted in order to resist the magic cannon of Kazami Yuuka, and within a blink of an eye, a slight flaw appeared in the "World in the Pot" of Yagumo Yukari. She accurately used her realm ability to break through the barrier of the "World in the Pot" and opened the "gap" to return to the sea of ​​the moon.

While using the "gap" to bring himself and the owner of the large flower field out, the monster sage used the power of realm to break through the surface with a point, disrupting the structure of the "Art of the World in the Pot". Eventually, the interior of the "World in the Pot" was destroyed due to the abnormal structure of the art. Even Yagi Eirin, who maintained the "World in the Pot", was instantly hit by the backlash brought about by the destruction of his own art and was severely injured.

At this moment, unlike the tall girl with short light green curly hair, the owner of the large flower field, Kazami Yuuka, who was still very elegant after the battle with the Moon Sage, the Moon Sage Bayi Eirin's messy clothes were covered with dust everywhere, and most of the clothes showed signs of being scorched by the high-temperature flames.

However, the Moon City Sage himself didn't seem to mind. Although he was tricked by the Yokai Sage in the end, as a Penglai native, even if his body was reduced to ash, let alone a serious injury, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Just as he was about to say something, the sage of the Moon City, Yagi Eirin, suddenly noticed that in the distance, in the core area of ​​the Moon City located on the Moon Sea Plain, an unusual and discordant aura suddenly erupted.

"oops……"

The sage of the monster also noticed something unusual and closed his fan, looking extremely happy.

"It seems something interesting has happened in the core of the Moon City."

Although his smile was extremely happy, at this moment, the bright yellow eyes of the Youkai Sage with dazzling golden hair were filled with cold indifference.

The Moon City Shrine, the Great Palace can be seen on a moonlit night.

Although some extremely abnormal changes that occurred in the core area of ​​the Moon City have been noticed by Yakumo Yukari, Kazami Yuuka and Yagi Eirin in the Moon Sea Plain outside the Moon City, the Moon Goddess no longer cares that the changes here will be noticed by others.

The Moon Goddess's cold girlish voice slowly rang out.

"Amaterasu, the goddess of the Azuchi-no-Takagi and the sun, rules over Takama-ga-hara, where the gods dwell. At my request, illuminate the moon sea with the sun's radiance!"

"'Susanoo, the god of the vast sea and chaos', you rule over the vast and violent vast sea. At my request, as the god of the vast and violent sea, descend upon the Moon Sea!"

"Come down! Lord of the gods who exist in mythology!"

"I am the embodiment of the sky and the earth, yin and yang, and all things. I am the Moon Goddess who rules over the Night Food Plain and the Moon Sea. Following the language woven by myths and legends, I open up the realms of fantasy and reality..."

"...In the name of 'Ashihara Takaten, Sankiko'!"

Volume 3: Above the Moon Sea: Chapter 136: The Three Noble Sons

Following the Moon Goddess's declaration, the Moon Dragon Veins, which were spread across the deep surface of the Moon's sea, began to flow faster.

The originally even circulation of lunar spiritual power changed under the guidance of Yue Yejian. A large amount of lunar spiritual power circulated along the dragon veins of the entire moon and gathered at the core of the Moon Capital Palace - Yue Yejian Palace.

At this moment, the concentration of spiritual energy here has become unimaginably dense. The spiritual energy that humans on earth cannot see is so dense that it appears in the objective world, appearing as thick white mist. The entire Moonlight Palace has become hazy.

Within three blinks of an eye, a huge amount of spiritual power gathered in Yue Yejian's body. At the same time, the incongruous "otherworldly" feeling of the Moon Capital Shrine became more and more prominent.

As Yue Yejian finished speaking, two phantoms emerged from the Moon Goddess's body, one on the left and one on the right. The Moon City Goddess raised her arms and placed her white jade hands on the shoulders of the two phantoms at the same time. The huge spiritual power that had originally gathered in Yue Yejian's body flowed into the two phantoms along the Moon Goddess's arms.

Under the infusion of huge spiritual power, the phantom quickly condensed and was no longer an illusory shadow.

Among them, the shadow on the left manifested as a young girl who resembled the Moon Goddess, with the concepts of the "sun" and "sky" divinities, while the shadow on the right manifested as a middle-aged man who was very different from the one seen on the moon night, with the concepts of the "storm", "sea", "earth" and "riot" divinities.

Just a snap of the fingers later, the divine bodies of the two pillar gods had actually descended in front of Yue Yejian Palace.
