I Am a Heroic Spirit

However, in this situation, even Tamamonomae himself cannot use the infinite light attack, nor can he release the treasure that can emit light.

"Ghost Path·Monsters and Demons! 810"

At Tamamonomae's command, evil spirits appeared from the darkness. Relying on the protection of the darkness, they wandered in front of Nijo Castle and attacked the living.

"Damn it! I can't see it at all!"

In just over ten seconds, two more scratches appeared on Kagome's body. Most of the others were good at close combat. Even if they could not see or sense anything, they could still block the attacks of evil spirits in time.

Hokusai Katsushika and Princess Geibu hid in a large piece of origami. The origami circled around them in the shape of a boomerang, tearing the attacking demons and monsters into pieces. As for Himeji Castle, it was also wiped out by the darkness of the solar eclipse.

Bai Qingming summoned the long-lost Shikigami, and with the intuition of the monsters, he was able to block the attacks of evil spirits.

"Let me do it! Stand still!"

Maitreya stood up, shouted, and tore off the seal in his hand. The wind hole was revealed and expanded rapidly, releasing a powerful suction force.

The ghosts and monsters similar to plankton had no chance to resist this suction and were sucked into the wind hole from all directions. Kagome had to be supported by Inuyasha to avoid being sucked into the wind hole when Miroku was at full power.

"A fox wearing a skull worships the moon, a spotted-footed thousand-king sacrifices to an elephant, and in the name of the fox heretic, the leader of the nine hundred and ninety-nine kings, transforms into a yaksha demon to fight for me."

This is Tamamonomae's fourth Noble Phantasm. The Nino-Prajnaparamita Sutra records the story of King Banzu of Dera's ordination. It states that when he was a crown prince, he was taught a heretic's teachings and attempted to sacrifice the heads of a thousand kings to the elephant god. After ascending the throne, he obtained the Nine-Nine-Nine Kings. Traveling north, he obtained King Puming. King Puming invited a hundred Dharma masters to expound the Prajnaparamita Sutra for him, which enlightened him. Returning to Dera, he recited the Prajnaparamita Sutra verses for King Puming. King Banzu, hearing these teachings, attained the Samadhi of Emptiness, and subsequently became a monk, achieving the Patience of the Unborn.

The heretic who bewitched King Banzu in the sutra was the fox heretic Huayangtian, one of Tamamonomae's incarnations. Even the powerful sword of the Lion King, led by the lord Puming, failed to kill him.

The evil voice echoed in the darkness, like the groan of evil spirits. A total of nine hundred and ninety-nine hand-yaksha evil spirits appeared in the darkness, not one more, not one less.

These yakshas and evil spirits are not ordinary demons, but the guardian gods of Tantric Buddhism, also known as Dakini Yakshas. They can be said to be the forms of the 999 kings before they converted to Buddhism after their death.

Although not a true god, the Yaksha demon that was transformed from the fallen king of a country is not much inferior to even a third-rate servant.

The three-headed Yaksha evil ghost followed the suction and entered Maitreya's wind cave, and then Maitreya's arm exploded, and the whole arm turned into minced meat on the ground. Although Maitreya's wind cave was powerful, its level was a bit low. After all, it was caused by the curse of the monster, and it was already the limit to accommodate the three-headed Yaksha evil ghost.

The three-headed Yaksha evil ghost and the wind hole died together, but there were still 996 Yakshas left. If Bai Qingming had not taken out the Shikigami scroll and summoned all the Shikigami in it, they would have been defeated because of their small number.

However, even with dozens of additional great monsters, Shuten-doji and his group didn't gain the upper hand in the battle. For one thing, the barrier suppressed them, preventing them from unleashing their Noble Phantasms, making it difficult for Hokusai to paint. Ushiwakamaru couldn't use his strategic Noble Phantasms because he couldn't see anything. And for another, the Yashas were simply too numerous, so many that dozens could besiege a single enemy. They were able to hold out thanks to Tamamonomae's refusal to cast a curse.

"I can't go on like this, everyone, help me."

The person who spoke was Bai Qingming, and he prayed sincerely to his Shikigami.

"Are you going to use that move? Stop kidding, you're a god now, not a ghost or a half-demon." The person who spoke was Yasha. After using the Yellow Spring Sea move to dissolve the Yasha evil spirit, Yasha shouted angrily at Bai Qingming, "For what great cause did you seal us away a thousand years ago? Now you want us to die with you?"

"I can give up my divine identity, that's all. Otherwise, we'll be dragged to death!" Bai Qingming also raised his voice, shouting into the darkness from which Yasha's voice came. "As for committing suicide, Yasha, this is already a do-or-die situation. Whether we use that trick or not is the same. Finally, are you willing to die with me?"

"You want to die, how can I not accompany you?" Yaksha shouted angrily.

"If you insist."

"Okay, Lord Qingming."

"You are so willful."

One after another, voices rang out from the darkness, but no matter where they came from, they were inevitably filled with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Once Bai Qingming abandons his divine identity, he will become nothing more than a ghost. Ghosts are powerless against the call of the underworld, and the Qingming who reincarnates into the underworld will be a completely different person. Furthermore, even if Bai Qingming can withstand their demonic power, his fragile ghost body will still cause his soul to collapse after the battle, leaving him without even a chance of reincarnation.

The group of Shikigami who found Bai Qingming through their bond after a thousand years naturally did not want this to happen, but they also knew that they could not change Bai Qingming's determination.

Light appeared again in the dark Kyoto. It was the divine radiance of Bai Qingming. Countless golden spots of light spread out from Bai Qingming's body, illuminating an area of ​​space.

Bai Qingming's face was extremely pale. Without his divinity, he was just an ordinary ghost. No matter how strong he was in his lifetime, it would be difficult for him to display his strength. If his divinity had not completely dissipated, the darkness around him alone would have been enough to make his soul disappear.

"Sorry, everyone, please forgive me for being willful this last time."

Bai Qingming's voice was very weak, with a bitter smile on his face, but his eyes were full of unshakable belief.

No one spoke, and all the Shikigami remained silent, because Bai Qingming's belief could no longer be changed.

"Come, my companions who fight with me, lend me your strength."

Bai Qingming's Shikigami including Deer Man, Aoandon, Youdaohime, Hana-chomaki, Kaguya-hime, Higanbana, Yuki Onna, Onikiri, Aobouzu, Mannentake, Yasha, Black Boy, White Boy, Shogo, Youqinshi, Phoenix Fire, Enenra, Inugami, etc. turned into light and shadow and attacked Bai Qingming.

Just like a blank scroll painted with colorful strokes, all the Shikigami entered Bai Qingming's painting.

The incomparable demonic energy rose into the sky, frightening even Shuten-doji. This powerful demonic power was several times stronger than before she became a Heroic Spirit.

With a powerful demonic aura emanating from his entire body, Bai Qingming was naturally no longer in his previous ghost form. He was like a great demon, and had undergone tremendous changes from head to toe.

Accompanied by the beautiful sound of the piano, bright red flowers like flames grew at Bai Qingming's feet, butterflies and birds danced among the flowers, and snowflakes fell.

A pair of horns rose from Bai Qingming's head, his eyes showed blue pupils, blue jade ornaments hung behind Bai Qingming's head, and patterns symbolizing monsters appeared on his face. The originally simple hunting clothes became extremely gorgeous, and the bat fan in his hand disappeared, replaced by a demon sword shaped like Tsumutarumasa.

From then on, the ghost entanglement was completed.

That's right, it's ghost entanglement. Bai Qingming had thought about this trick as early as middle age. As a half-demon, with a close bond with the shikigami, how powerful would it be to gather everyone's power into one.

However, Bai Qingming had no opponents at that time, so he did not perfect this trick. Later, when Kuro Qingming and Yuyuko attacked, he did not have time to find a place to seal his Shikigami to avoid being poisoned or bewitched by Kuro Qingming and Yuyuko. Then, after a desperate battle, he became a ghost.

Later, in order to gain the power to repel the returning Yuyuko and Black Seimei, Bai Seimei perfected this move. However, he only then discovered that he had become a god, and his divine power and demonic power were incompatible, so he could not use such a move at all.

It has been delayed until now. In order to repel Tamamonomae, Bai Qingming abandoned his divinity and turned himself into an ordinary ghost, and then used this ghost entanglement trick.

"Listen, the sword is beating."

Bai Qingming stared at the approaching darkness with a resolute expression, and the magic sword raised in his right hand emitted bursts of sword sounds.

"Take it! This is the ultimate demon sword, the goal of countless demon swordsmen's hard work! Imitation of Tsumugari and Muramasa!"

Bai Qingming held the sword in both hands and swung it forward with all his strength. The flash of light illuminated the entire Kyoto, splitting the darkness that enveloped Kyoto. Almost all of the more than 990 Yakshas and evil spirits disappeared in the dazzling sword light.

Based on the demonic power of dozens of great monsters and with Youtouhime's talent as a bridge, Bai Qingming recreated Tsukuru Muramasa who once killed Yamata no Orochi. Although the power may not be stronger than that used by Sengo Muramasa, it is enough to break the barrier. After all, Tsukuru Muramasa's moves are aimed at barriers.

"Dragon Head Jade."

After breaking through the darkness, Bai Qingming did not dare to waste time. The green jade ornament behind his head shone brightly, forcing Tamamonomae into the illusion.

"I'll move her down!"

Ushiwakamaru took the opportunity to use his strategic Noble Phantasm, the Free Sky Eye: Six Strategies to see through everything, and moved Tamamonomae from the sky to the ground.

"Obscure Moon Snow Flower Slash!"

"A Hundred Flowers in Disarray - My Pet Name!"

"Thin Green Sky Blade Shrink Step!"

"King Kong! Explosion Flow!"

"Benkei Buddha!"

"A great flame rises from the Great River Mountain!"

"I want to help too! Lord Baike Daitendou of Shiragi Castle! Smash Tamamonomae to death!"

"Then I'll use this move, White Rain Under the Mountain!"

"Use the Command Seal to command all Kyoto Servants to defeat Tamamonomae."

The moment Tamamonomae landed on the ground, everyone used their ultimate skills together to besiege Tamamonomae. Even Princess Goubu had her attributes reversed. Zhang Luo, who had been keeping an eye on the battles on all sides, used four Command Seals at the fastest speed to strengthen the power of Princess Goubu, Hokusai, Shuten-doji, and Ushiwakamaru.

After Tamamonomae took a second to break free from the illusion, she found that the crowd's attack was already very close.

All eight moves hit, tearing Tamamonomae's body apart. Golden divine blood flew all over the sky, and Tamamonomae's breath dropped to the lowest point in an instant.

This was the first time that the Heroic Spirits had launched an offensive powerful enough to influence the outcome of the battle, and it was also the first time in this battle against the Beast that they had inflicted significant damage to the Beast.
