Now she has come to Izumo with Morikawa Yu, only to find that the shrine maiden is still involved in things in Izumo.

Even if she tried to convince herself that the priestess meant them no harm, she was only fooling herself. She might as well confront the priestess directly and ask her what she was up to.

Mitsuko waved her hand, and nine long, beautiful fox tails swayed and rose behind her. Pure golden demonic power flowed and converged around her, eventually forming streaks of golden light that enveloped the location of the shrine maiden and arrived in front of her almost instantly.

The priestess remained silent.

She stretched out her hand, turned her wrist, and her fair and slender fingers emerged from the wide sleeves of the priest's robe, drawing a pure golden arc.

Its light shone brightly, like the crown of the blazing sun in the sky.

The priestess spoke softly, her voice clear and ethereal: "Sunlight!"

The golden divine light suddenly blazed brightly, and a golden halo appeared behind her, like an incomparably dazzling sun, illuminating everything around her.

At the same time, the sun in the sky also became a little brighter.

The sun, which had been dyed blood red by the Crimson Boundary, gradually lost its red color, revealing its original appearance, shining brightly and driving away and dissolving the surrounding crimson demonic power.

Ise Grand Shrine was originally a palace dedicated to Amaterasu Omikami.

Amaterasu Omikami is a goddess symbolizing the sun. She governs Takamagahara, the abode of all the gods, and is the chief deity of all the gods.

When the Age of Gods ended, Amaterasu Ōmikami disappeared without a trace, just like her father Izanagi, and was suspected of vanishing and perishing.

However, other deities later discovered that the first priestess of Ise Grand Shrine possessed power and authority similar to that of Amaterasu Omikami, and took over the entire Ise Grand Shrine, claiming the land of Ise as her own territory.

Chapter 592 The True Sword of the Gods

Some suspect that the first priestess was the vanished Amaterasu Omikami, while others suspect that the first priestess murdered Amaterasu Omikami, usurped her divine power and authority, and relinquished her divine position to become the supreme deity of the Ise region.

The first priestess ignored these rumors, remaining high in the shrine and silently protecting the world from the shadows.

Aside from sending shikigami and shrine maidens to quell disturbances in Ise and the border regions, she rarely interferes in anything in the real world.

She only shows up to express her opinion on very special matters.

However, few people knew her true thoughts, and the priestesses who followed her were just like her, rarely appearing in public.

Mitsuko waved her hand, and golden divine light enveloped the figure of the shrine maiden.

The arc of light around the shrine maiden suddenly became even brighter, radiating light in all directions. Although Mitsuko's divine power enveloped the space around the shrine maiden, it was unable to get close to her body.

The vast divine forces clashed, continuously encroaching upon the surrounding space, vying for dominance and reaching a stalemate...

On the other side, Fei Yue flew towards the main plaza of the Mizuwakazu Shrine, high above the islands below.

The priestess and the goddess stood in the square, watching the crimson moon fall from the sky.

They exchanged a glance, subtly protecting Hua Jianxue behind them, while simultaneously unleashing divine and demonic power to hinder Feiyue's movements.

Scarlet Moon did not stop.

Faced with these two powers from the priestess and the weaver, she reached out, clenched her fist, and as if she had grasped something out of thin air, a soft sound came from where she held it.

The shrine maiden's bright golden divine power and the divine weaver's jade-white demonic power suddenly stopped, exploding in mid-air and creating ripples of divine and demonic power.

Feiyue's figure flew through this divine and demonic power. The blood-red boundary demonic power protected her body, and her expression did not change at all. Not even her long hair behind her was disturbed.

This is her Crimson Boundary.

Within the Crimson Boundary, she could use almost all her demonic power to destroy anything that stood in her way.

The priestess's face darkened. She leaped into the air and quickly reached a height of a hundred meters above the main hall, facing the descending Scarlet Moon from afar.

She also stretched out her hand, and a beam of light slowly solidified in her hand. Finally, the light receded, revealing the blade within the light. At the same time, an enormous phantom of a sword emerged from the tip of the blade.

The sword's illusory form was nearly thirty feet long, shrouded in obsidian and white jade colors and light. If swung straight down, it could almost reach the main plaza of the shrine below.

It was a sword, an enormous sword, one that no ordinary person could wield.

Divine weapon, the sword of the gods, Ame no Habakiri!

Morikawa Yu had seen this sword in the realm of the Age of Gods.

That was when Hanamiyuki used the Shadow of Power to scheme against him, and when she used the White Jade Puppet to impersonate Susanoo and question him. The White Jade Puppet that Hanamiyuki controlled had used this Sword of the Gods.

However, the "Ame no Habakiri" used by Hanamiyuki's white jade doll was not the real divine weapon Ame no Habakiri. It was merely a fake with only the appearance and some divine power. It could only be used in the historical realm of the Age of Gods. Once it came to reality, this fake sword would immediately disintegrate.

The Ame no Habakiri in the hands of the priestess is the true sword of the gods, which has been born and has slain many gods, and has even defeated the ferocious Yamata no Orochi.

The priestess swung her longsword, and the enormous Ame-no-Habakiri slashed towards the sky, moving with the blade in her hand.

Although she only swung it a short distance, the illusory image of the Heavenly Feather Blade connected to the sword body had already swung dozens of feet, almost directly in front of Fei Yue, stirring up a huge wave of air and divine power, trying to force Fei Yue to stop.

Feiyue waved her hand, and a power mark shone on her hand, instantly creating a blood-red barrier in front of her.

The illusory image of the Heavenly Feather Blade struck the blood-red barrier, causing it to shudder violently and bounce backward.

Feiyue snorted coldly and reached out to grasp her hand.

The crimson demonic power formed an almost visible giant hand, which grasped the illusory image of the Ame no Habakiri sword and pulled it to one side.

Although the sword of Tenyuu Habakiri was filled with powerful divine power, it was still unable to resist the crimson demonic power of the crimson moon. The sword trembled incessantly, and the priestess's expression became extremely solemn.

"Master!" Hua Jianxue exclaimed in surprise.

She leaped into the air, wanting to help the priestess, but fearing that she might distract the priestess and put her in a more dangerous situation, she eventually stopped.

The priestess is her teacher, the highest god of Izumo, whose strength is incomparably powerful, and she is truly one of the strongest beings standing at the pinnacle of secrecy.

Even such a powerful priestess cannot confront Scarlet Moon head-on; if she rashly steps forward, she will only cause trouble for the priestess.

Moreover, the crimson moon kept flying towards them, perhaps to catch her.

She can't just go up there like that.

Hanami Yuki looked to Kamio for help.

Shenzhi had already taken flight.

She arrived in mid-air, facing the priestess from afar. Her jade-white divine power rushed towards the illusory sword of Ame no Habakiri and blasted towards the crimson demonic power of Hiigetsu.

At the same time, a stream of the jade-white divine power split off and condensed into countless white threads of light, which wrapped around Fei Yue's hands.

Feiyue frowned slightly.

She waved her hand, and a blood-red barrier of demonic energy appeared in front of her.

However, these white threads of light struck the barrier directly, but instead of collapsing or scattering, they stuck to the surface of the barrier, like real spider silk, wrapping her up layer by layer, enveloping her and the barrier together, and quickly obscuring her vision.

The priestess found an opportunity, unleashed her divine power, and wielded the Ame no Habakiri, finally freeing the illusory sword of Ame no Habakiri from the crimson realm of the demonic power of the crimson moon.

She flew straight up, raising the sword in her hand. The illusory image of the Heavenly Feather Slash at the end of the sword shone brightly, and slashed down at the white spider silk cocoon that enveloped the figure of Scarlet Moon and the blood-red barrier!

With a deafening roar, a huge gash was slashed open in the white spider silk cocoon.

A mark was also made on the demonic energy barrier of the crimson moon.

The priestess raised her sword again and slashed down once more at the phantom of Ame no Habakiri, instantly creating an even larger gap in the barrier.

Shenzhi also released more demonic power, binding the white silk cocoon that enveloped the crimson moon and the demonic power barrier even tighter, and spreading it in all directions.

Power – “Weaving together all things”!

This power, like the name given to it by the goddess Kaori and Kaori, can connect all things.

Since she can connect to all things, she can naturally connect divine power to space as well. Given time, she can completely connect this white silk cocoon body to space.

Of course, the priestess might think of using the Sword of the Gods in her hand to cut through the white silk cocoon and severely injure the Crimson Moon, but she doesn't care, as long as she can help.

She looked at the priestess.

The priestess nodded slightly to her, then raised her sword again. A dazzling light and divine power swirled within the illusory image of the Heavenly Feather Blade.

But when the priestess tried to swing the Heavenly Feather Blade down again, aiming at the white silk cocoon in mid-air, a faint crimson demonic light emanated from the white cocoon.

Chapter 593 The Power of the Red Moon

Within the white silk cocoon, Fei Yue stood in mid-air, surrounded by a protective crimson demonic energy barrier.

She looked at the priestess and the divine weaver outside through the gaps and cracks in the barrier and her white silk cocoon, while a crimson aura of demonic power gradually gathered around her.

Although the goddess had trapped her with a cocoon of jade-white demonic power, and the priestess was still using the divine weapon, the Heavenly Feather Blade, to break through her barrier, she didn't feel any tension.

She hasn't actually used her powers and strength yet; she's simply fighting based on her own demonic energy level.

Feiyue closed her eyes, and a faint mark of light appeared on her forehead.

Finally, she opened her eyes, and the light of the mark suddenly became incredibly bright. The surrounding blood energy also became more concentrated, permeating everything around her and quickly turning the white silk cocoon body that was wrapped in the barrier red.

This demonic power continued to spread outwards, quickly turning the space further away crimson.

Just now, the Priestess Hime used her powers and divine strength to awaken the sun in the sky above the realm and domain, dispelling the crimson demonic power of the Crimson Moon Realm and making the sun shine brightly white.

As these demonic energies permeated the sky, the crimson color of the sky grew increasingly intense. The scarlet demonic energy once again stained the sun in the sky, causing the originally bright white outline of the sun to dim once more.

The sun's corona was missing a piece, and a faint black shadow spread out from the gap, like a solar eclipse, gradually swallowing the sun's light.

Soon, most of the sun was obscured by a blood-red shadow, and the sky and earth became incredibly dark, as if night were about to fall.

The priestess and the origami exchanged a solemn glance.

They didn't know what Fei Yue had done, but this blood moon eclipse-like scene clearly indicated that something terrifying was about to happen.

Without further hesitation, the priestess swung the Heavenly Feather Blade, and the massive phantom of the Heavenly Feather Blade slashed down again, heading straight for the white silk cocoon body.

However, before the Heavenly Feather Slash could strike, the white silk cocoon that enveloped Scarlet Moon and her demonic energy barrier trembled and exploded outward, stirring up a massive turbulent flow of demonic energy.

A figure dressed in a scarlet kimono flew out from the turbulent currents, reaching out to forcefully block the illusory image of Ame no Habakiri's sword.

The priestess's hands trembled, and the sword in her hand almost slipped from her grasp.

She used her divine power to surround the sword, gripped the Heavenly Feather Blade tightly, stabilized the sword's illusory form, and focused her gaze on Fei Yue's figure. She was shocked to find Fei Yue waving her hand to push away the sword's illusory form, flying into the sky, and looking down at them from above.

Not only that, strange phenomena also occurred in the sky.

Behind the crimson moon, the sun appeared dim and lifeless.

The dark red demonic energy had completely swallowed the sun's light, leaving only the outline of the sun with a faint glow. The entire sky was pitch black, with only the faintly visible stars.

A tiny red glow emerged from the center of the swallowed sun, gradually spreading into a blood-red light until it dyed the entire sun blood-red.

When that ray of red light disappeared, the sun in the sky had vanished completely.

Where the sun originally stood was an enormous red moon, which looked like the sun but was many times larger, surrounded by a rich, bright, blood-red light.

Even the appearance of Hiiyue herself has changed.

She was no longer in her previous human form, but had revealed her true form, her appearance becoming even more beautiful and exquisite, with an eerie and magnificent mark on her forehead, and countless marks of power surrounding her.

The crimson moon shone brightly and dazzlingly, almost overwhelming everything.

Only a silhouette of Fei Yue's body could be seen, her face was not visible, only her beautiful silver-white long hair was seen flying behind her, her intricate crimson long-sleeved kimono was slightly billowing, and she was surrounded by flying crimson orbs of light that rose into the sky, turning the sky completely crimson!

Soon, Fei Yue made a move; she reached her hand down.

As Fei Yue moved, the light rose and fell, and the entire space within the Crimson Realm trembled slightly. There was also a faint, heavy heartbeat that could be heard, as if the entire Crimson Realm had come alive.

The priestess's face darkened.

She was filled with a sense of crisis and subconsciously gathered her divine power domain to protect herself.

Shenzhi's expression was also quite solemn, and she similarly withdrew her demonic power.

The next moment, a terrifying crimson beam of light crashed down from the sky, striking the domain barrier in front of the priestess and shattering the surrounding space, stirring up a massive surge of demonic energy.

The priestess trembled, her face turned pale, and she almost lost her balance and fell from mid-air.

Just as she was about to catch her breath, she suddenly noticed more crimson beams of light crashing down from the sky, like stars turning into light and falling from the heavens.

Some crashed into the sea rocks, causing the rock layers to vaporize silently and disappear. Others struck the sea surface, creating towering waves, almost all of which were hundreds of feet high. Even more terrifying was the evaporation of seawater, forming huge whirlpools, with the waves surging towards the seabed.

Some of them run directly through the island, with seawater gushing out of the cracks and engulfing the island's buildings.

Only the divine power domain and demonic power realm that she and Shenzhi erected barely managed to block these crimson pillars of light and protect the Mizuwakazu Shrine below.

Even so, she and Shenzhi were still being blasted back, and they were about to fall to the ground.

Once she and Shenzhi land on the ground, even if she can protect Hanamiyuki, she won't be able to protect the shrine, and the entire archipelago will be directly sunk.

Even the more distant seas were bombarded by these crimson beams of light, countless seawater was evaporated, the waves surged, the wind howled, and the mist from the evaporating seawater quickly rose from the surface.

The fog continued to spread, almost filling every part of the sea surface. The crimson demonic power of the realm permeated the sea fog, turning it blood-red, along with the blood-red sky. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, creating a scene of apocalypse and impending world destruction.
