Tokyo Paranormal, the beginning reminds me of the game plot

When this place was first built, the concentration of spiritual energy was actually not much different from that of the Onmyoji School.

Only the Star Palace and the residences of the four sacred beasts will receive the blessing of the Spirit Gathering Array and reach twice the power.

But today, two hundred years later, even the area with the lowest spiritual energy concentration is five times that of the spiritual practice room in the Onmyoji School, while areas such as the Star Palace and the Four Saints Palace can reach a spiritual energy concentration of twenty times that of the real world!

If the spiritual realm can be like this, it goes without saying that the spiritual realms at a higher level are also like this.

Since the spiritual world is named "realm", it means that it has its own cycle and does not need the help of external forces to maintain it.

It can even feed back to later successors, allowing them to break through to the Pseudo-Pure Stage in a short period of time.

It can be said that the existence of the spiritual world is a super plug-in for many people.

Even if after inheriting the spirit world, one cannot break through to the Pure Stage in the rest of his life, but in Heavy Sakura, how many people can cultivate to this level?

Unfortunately, since ancient times, there are only ten spiritual realms that have been passed down.

Among them, three are controlled by Tsuchimikado, three are in Ryugu, one is in Hanakaiin, and the remaining three are allowed to be fought for by the Onmyoji living in the psychic world.

They are respectively - the 'Wall of Sighs' controlled by Vice-President Nura, the 'Fantasy Town' where the 'Miracle of the End' lives, and the 'Paradise of the Past' of the 'Dream' mentioned by Qinglong.

Unlike the Four Holy Priestess and the Twenty-Eight Star Masters, the symbiotic relationship between the Ten Spirit Kings and the spirit world they each control will continue until their death.

Then, the spiritual world that has lost its master will either actively or passively select a successor.

Moreover, the selection method of each spiritual world is different.

Taichi Yagami lowered his head. He was not a stupid man. After listening to Qinglong's words, he almost immediately understood the reason why the academy birthday festival was restarted.

"That Lord Huanmeng...is dead?"

Qinglong nodded and then shook his head.

"That guy passed away last year. After all, if you calculate the time, he lived to be 120 years old, which is the limit of the lifespan of a Ming-level Yin-Yang Master, or a human."

"Then..." Ye Shen Taiyi opened his mouth, but due to the lack of information, he was unable to connect everything.

Fortunately, Qinglong didn't intend to keep him in suspense. Seeing the hesitation on his face, he slowly told him the truth.

"Yesterday was the anniversary of the Onmyoji Academy. Due to the request of the three above, the little girl of the Tsuchimikado family decided to open the school to the entire psychic world for one day."

When he said this, Longgong, who was standing next to Qinglong, turned his head with some uneasiness.

The ancestor's decision this time has harmed many people.

"The Onmyoji's goal is actually very simple. They want to use the identities of the three of you to lure out the members of the Blue Cosmos hiding in the dark, and then use them to completely destroy this organization."

"Then, this plan failed?" asked Taichi Yagami.

The next second, somewhat unexpectedly, Qinglong shook his head.

"No, it worked."

"The leader of Blue Cosmos, Abyss 'Mercury', also disguised himself and mixed in with the group returning to school this time, but the moment he entered the field through the teleportation array, he was discovered and controlled by your Vice-President Nura."

"The Ten Spirit Kings are quite powerful in the Pseudo-Pure Stage, and the Abyss Dwellers are also classified as Pseudo-Pure Stage, but because of this..." Qinglong raised his hand and pointed at his temple, "their actual combat power can only be exerted at 70% to 80% of the theoretical level."

After hearing this, Yagami Taichi's doubts were not only not answered, but became more intense.

If Qinglong's description was followed, the school birthday festival should have ended successfully.

how……

As if he had noticed the confusion of his own star warrior, Qinglong continued:

"In terms of combat power, Shuiyin is no match for Juebi. But let alone Juebi, even the three above could not have imagined that Shuiyin would integrate Cinderella's diary, the ticket to the inheritance qualification of the Paradise of the Past, into his own flesh and blood."

"The moment he was led by Nura into the teleportation array, the diary met all the conditions for opening the inheritance trial, pulling all the people who were still in the school at the time, well, mainly you students, into the real illusion created by the paradise of the past."

"..."

After hearing this, Yagami Taichi fell silent.

After a while, he raised his head again:

"So, Lord Qinglong, what do you need me for?"

120 A tentative contract with the Dragon Priestess

Qinglong was silent for a while after hearing this.

However, Zhuque, who was sitting next to him, opened his mouth slowly at this time: "No one wants to become an awakened person who doesn't even have reason to become the Ten Spirit King."

"The Yin-Yang Bureau is like this, and the Four Sacred Mountains also hold the same attitude." She gently clicked her index finger, making a trembling sound. "But outsiders have no way to interfere with the inheritance trial in the spiritual world. Only the dream providers who are also pulled into it can change the outcome."

Yagami Taichi raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"So, you two adults want to let a rookie who has just become a regular-level Onmyoji to stop the Abyss Dweller with pseudo-Pure-level combat power?" He took a deep breath, "If that's the case, please allow me to refuse, and I will apply to use the Star Master's authority to change the destination of the next teleportation array to the Onmyoji headquarters in the present world."

Although cross-border battles often occur in the psychic world, Taichi Yagami hopes that if possible, he will never encounter such a situation in his lifetime.

pity……

"Xinsu, this is not a request."

Suzaku said slowly, but his tone left no room for doubt.

"..."

"Not only you, but also my priestess and Azure Dragon's priestess will be teleported back to the paradise of the afterlife."

Ryuguu Setsuna and Hyuga Kinoka smiled at the right time, but the expressions on their faces did not look very good.

No one wants to be in danger.

However, while gaining the rights and benefits of star masters and priestesses, the three of them also shouldered corresponding responsibilities and obligations.

At this time, Qinglong opened his mouth. Unlike Zhuque, he wore a white face.

"As a member of the Four Sacred Mountains, we naturally cannot let you act alone." As he spoke, he clapped his hands.

The next moment, three priestesses, Rabbit, Dragon and Sheep, appeared in the hall.

"Next, Chen Long will sign a tentative contract with you, Mao Tu will sign a tentative contract with the Ryugu Shrine Maiden, and Wei Yang will sign a tentative contract with the Hyuga Shrine Maiden for a period of seven days."

"And with the help of this contract, I will enter the paradise of the afterlife with you."

"……I see."

Now that things have come to this, if I refuse again, it won't be a question of politeness or not.

but……

Yagami Taichi took a deep breath and said, "My Lords, please tell me how to stop that mercury?"

……

With a flicker of light, Taichi Yagami reappeared in the spiritual arts practice room.

He took out the soul-raising talisman that sealed the Chenlong Priestess from his pocket and activated it.

Then, the person wearing a red and white witch robe and a pair of deer antlers on the forehead appeared beside him.

Chenlong Priestess sniffed twice and said with a hint of surprise on her face: "Is this the spirit world...the paradise of the past? It feels like it's not much different from an ordinary spirit realm~"

Yagami Taichi lowered his eyebrows and seemed a little silent.

If possible, he actually didn't want to wade into the muddy water that was about to happen.

But the controllers of the Four Sacred Mountains and the Yin-Yang Bureau did not allow it.

"Well then, Chenlong Priestess, I'll leave the rest to you."

Can a mere regular-rank person really interfere in the inheritance trial involving the spiritual world?

The answer is undoubtedly no.

In fact, my real role from the very beginning was to bring the Chenlong Priestess into the trial.

After saying that, Ye Shen Taiyi said no more, sat down cross-legged, and began to practice seal.

……

The inheritance trial of the paradise on earth will last for a total of seven days.

During these seven days, the trial-taker who activated the ticket will fall into a deep sleep and complete the initial adaptive physical enhancement, while all dream providers who are pulled into the inheritance will repeat the experience of the first day infinitely.

According to the original intention of the spiritual world and paradise on earth, they should exist as obstacles to the trial.

As long as anyone can find and destroy Cinderella's diary hidden by the trial-taker within these seven days, it means that this trial has failed.

On the contrary, the trial-takers who are temporarily unable to move during these seven days will pass the test and gain absolute control over the paradise of the afterlife.

It is precisely because of such rules that most of the ticket winners of the Paradise of the Past would choose some remote mountains and forests as the final location of the trial.

Because in this way, their probability of passing the trial will be greatly increased.

but……

As I said before, the awakened ones are a group of crazy people with abnormal brains.

The trial ticket that could have been activated long ago was swallowed by Mercury as food.

But the luck of this abyss dweller is inexplicably good.

When the tickets were activated, except for the dean and vice-dean Haruka Tsuchimikado and Nura Wama, all the other professors and Onmyoji who came to participate in the school festival had basically left.

In addition, third-year students need to go out for internships in the second half of the semester.

To put it another way, all the people who were pulled into the fantasy land of paradise in the past life were almost all first and second grade students!

In the second grade, although there are some top students in the elite classes who will learn the brain blocking of the third grade in advance, it is basically impossible for them to condense a spiritual neural network that is strong enough to resist the illusion of the paradise in the past life like Taichi Yagami.

"…So, are those students of Yaoxueyan who were born in the present world hiding secrets?"

Tsuchimikado Haruka, who was also trapped in the paradise of the past, concluded with a smile.

Hearing this, Nura and Ma glanced at each other and gently reminded: "Excessive curiosity is not a good thing for an Onmyoji."

"Oh~ Are you worried about me?" Tsuchimikado Haruka was about to fall on her friend.

Then, without feeling any support, she fell directly onto the sofa.

The lady, who had a rather vulgar figure, didn't care. She raised her upper body with her hands, and a hint of curiosity on her face: "Speaking of which, how are you preparing?"

Nura and Ma paused after hearing this: "The 'Wall of Sighs' has already been deployed. Although there is no way to completely replace the illusion of the paradise before the end of the trial, it should not be a problem to save all the students."

Tsuchimikado Haruka raised her eyebrows. As a friend of Nura and Ma, she was naturally aware of some of their little habits. If this guy had 100% confidence, he would definitely not be like this now, without even a hint of a smile.

"Then it seems that I have to work hard on my side too~"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tsuchimikado Haruka, who had sensed something with the help of the authority of the academy president, suddenly curled up the corners of her mouth.

Not only her, but Nura and Ma beside her also showed surprised expressions.

"It seems that our support has arrived~"

121 Qinglong's Plan

As the clock struck twelve at midnight, the second day of Onmyoji Academy, October 10th, did not arrive.

Almost everyone who was pulled into the spirit world seemed to have their time paused at this moment.

Then, as if rewinding, it returned to midnight on October 10th.

The earthly branch priestesses who were forcibly sent to the paradise of the afterlife by the four sacred beasts through a temporary contract did not appear in the original "dream".

Almost at the moment the restart mechanism was activated, they were detected as abnormal intruders and were directly teleported out.

Fortunately, because last night Qinglong and Zhuque each lent their own priestess a magical weapon that can resist phantom magic, once the two wake up in the spirit world, they will be teleported to the Four Sacred Mountains as soon as possible according to the plan.

Then, he brought the Earthly Branches Priestess, with whom he had temporarily made a contract, back to the paradise of the afterlife.

As for Yagami Taichi...

"Great-grandfather, I don't understand."

In the Qinglong Palace, because there were no outsiders present, the words of the Chenlong priestess could not help but carry a hint of coquettishness.
