She had also heard her teacher talk about Shenzhi.

The great yokai of the Izumo era, Kanori, has a very eccentric personality. She doesn't like to interact with others and is the most reclusive of the great yokai. She has never had any close people or yokai around her.

Even the sword demon Kashima, who followed her, was only a nominal follower and rarely saw her.

Kashima respected her greatly, but she paid little attention to him. Only when an enemy that Kashima could not handle arrived at Mount Izumo would she leave her demonic realm and appear in the mortal world, after which she would return to her demonic realm.

Hanami Yuki turned to look at herself and the path leading up the mountain from Kashima.

Kashima shook his head: "Don't worry, Your Highness. There are only a few routes in and out of the mountain. If they don't take these routes, they must have flown up the mountain."

"If they flew up the mountain, they would be more easily discovered by the monsters in the mountain."

As Kashima spoke, he suddenly paused, looking up at the northern sky, where the clear chirping of birds could be heard.

"Looks like it's been found."

"Your Highness, let's hurry and find that Sword Saint."

.......

Morikawa Yu looked up at the sky, staring at the white bird that was chirping in mid-air.

The bird was clearly a demon, with a strong demonic aura. It started chirping after he spotted it and it saw him, clearly alerting others.

However, Morikawa Yu had no intention of shooting down the bird.

It's true that this white bird is tipping off others, but isn't it also tipping off him in the process?

Let's see who sent this bird to find them.

Chapter 613 Former Favor

Morikawa Yu released his wind power, searching for the forest below where birds were circling.

Inaba Tenshi and Asaka noticed his movements and, like him, looked towards the mountains and forests below the birds, each releasing their own demonic power.

Sakurada Ichiro was the slowest to react.

He drew his sword, warily watching the flying monsters in the sky, then immediately peered into the distant forest, searching for any trace of the enemy.

Soon, he saw the leaves trembling in the woods, and a tall figure could be vaguely seen walking out from among them.

The figure was about three or four zhang tall, exceptionally robust, with a resolute face. Its body was almost as tall as the trunks of the trees next to it. Walking among the trees, it made the trees in the mountains look short, like newly grown forests.

It also carried an incredibly long sword at its waist, with faint blue-white arcs of electricity visible on its blade.

That is... the Deer Island, the island of demons who live on this mountain?

Having heard that the other party has a majestic figure and wields a divine sword imbued with the power of thunder, it must be him.

Sakurada Ichiro was both surprised and delighted. He hadn't expected to meet the demon Kashima, who had learned the swordsmanship of Kashima Shrine, so soon. He sheathed his sword and was about to step forward.

Kashima was also taken aback when he saw Sakurada Ichiro.

"Taro!?"

It almost quickened its pace to meet Sakurada Ichiro, but then suddenly remembered that Sakurada Ichiro had already passed away, and had died right in front of it.

The incredibly young Sakurada Ichiro in front of him was not the Sakurada Ichiro he knew, but rather the "Sakurada Ichiro" in this historical field.

Kashima turned his head and looked down at Hanamiyuki.

It transmitted a voice: "Your Highness, have we traveled to more than four hundred years ago? Why are we encountering a young Taro? Does Taro recognize me at this time?"

Hanami Yuki shook her head: "I don't know either."

Although she created and opened the historical realm using her power, she didn't know what time period the historical realm was at. She only knew that the historical realm they entered must be related to one of them.

Just like the time point when Morikawa Yu was dragged into the historical realm last time, it should be the modern era, because both she and Morikawa Yu are modern people. Then she can use her relationship with the priestess and the goddess to ask them to deal with Morikawa Yu.

Unexpectedly, Tenshi Inaba and Yu Morikawa entered the historical realm together, and the node in the historical realm became the Age of Gods in history.

Having no other choice, she created the White Jade Divine Puppet to deal with Morikawa Yu.

"Your Highness, you didn't know either?" Kashima asked with some regret.

It sighed and looked at Sakurada Ichiro.

Hanami Yuki also looked at Sakurada Ichiro with a curious gaze.

After all, that was her ancestor, the strongest swordsman in Izumo four hundred years ago.

Moreover, because her ancestors were great swordsmen and her family was a "Mushin-ryu" swordsmanship dojo, she was initially very curious about Morikawa Yu, the sword saint of Tokyo, and also had some vague feelings of affection for him.

So when she first met Morikawa Yu in the realm of gods, she also answered Morikawa Yu's questions.

As a result, Morikawa Yu killed her puppet the first time, and then guarded the shrine square the second time, capturing her. He showed no demeanor of a sword saint, which made her lose all goodwill towards him.

To be fair, she understood Morikawa Yu's actions, after all, she and Morikawa Yu were enemies. But understanding was one thing, and being able to accept it was another. Right now, she only wanted to defeat Morikawa Yu and fulfill her teacher's request.

On the other side, Morikawa Yu also reached out to stop Sakurada Ichiro, who was trying to move forward.

Sakurada Ichiro asked, puzzled, "What's wrong, Lord Morikawa?"

Morikawa Yu shook his head: "Don't rush forward, Sakurada-kun. I know you really want to see the demon Kashima of Kashima Shrine, but it might not be the demon Kashima you're looking for."

Sakurada Ichiro paused for a moment: "It's not the demon Kashima I'm looking for... Then who is it? Is there another demon named Kashima in this world?"

Morikawa Yu shook his head: "There is no other demon in the world named Kashima, but if it is at this time, then there are indeed two demons named Kashima at the same time."

After all, he and Hanamiyuki have now entered this historical realm, where there is indeed the original Oni-God Kashima and the Sword Oni-God Kashima who has now entered the historical realm.

Sakurada Ichiro's eyes widened, somewhat unable to comprehend.

Morikawa Yu didn't know how to explain it to him, so she turned to look at Hanamiyuki in the distance.

Hanami Yuki's expression darkened when she noticed Morikawa Hayao standing next to Sakurada Ichiro.

She stared at Morikawa Yu, her small face slightly cold.

"Sword Saint Morikawa, hand over Sister Wuhe and Sister Hai Ruo!"

Morikawa Yu gently shook her head: "No, Miss Hanami Yuki, I finally caught them, I can't listen to you and let them go."

"If you are worried about their safety, I can assure you that they are doing very well here with me."

Yes, they are doing very well.

Of the three, only one was broken down by Asaka's illusionary consciousness. The other was still angry with Otamaru and hadn't recovered yet. He glared at Otamaru with puffed-up cheeks, wishing he could eat Otamaru up.

However, apart from Maizuru and the Sea God, the shrine maiden Sanae is really doing very well.

Because she was just a shrine maiden with little divine power, only slightly stronger than ordinary people, Morikawa Yu and Otamamaru released her, allowing her to move freely, play games, or rest and sleep on the sofa or bed nearby.

Since Tsurumaru had nothing to do, he dragged the shrine maiden along to play games.

Because she usually cheats when playing games, neither Daimamaru nor Shinjuku want to play with her. Only Morikawa Yu will play with her for a while.

After all, although the scumbag girl is scumbag, she is indeed a genuine beautiful girl. Her way of being shameless is to give him face wash or pin him down on the sofa and give him "fan service", and then turn the tables when he can't see the screen.

Although he lost the game, he won in life, so he didn't really lose out.

Morikawa Yu: "If you don't believe me, you can come and take a look in my Goshuin account book yourself."

Then I'm going to lock you, this disobedient little loli, in the Goshuincho and train you until you lie down obediently and become just like your teacher's useless shikigami, Maizuru-neechan.

Hanami Yuki's expression darkened.

She didn't believe Morikawa Yu's words.

Ever since she met Morikawa Yu in the realm of divine history, and Morikawa Yu mercilessly shattered her white jade puppet and her consciousness projection, she clearly understood that Morikawa Yu was someone who would not show mercy to his enemies.

It's likely that Wuhe and Hai Ruo Shenzhu are in grave danger, trapped in Morikawa Yu's Goshuin Zhang.

Hanami Yuki frowned, her face growing increasingly pale.

"Morikawa...the Sword Saint?"

Sakurada Ichiro was stunned when he heard Hanami Yuki address Morikawa Yu earlier.

He looked at Morikawa Yu, then at the demon Kashima standing next to Hanamiyuki in the distance, and suddenly noticed that the sword techniques of Kashima and Morikawa Yu were different from those of his master.

Although both of them possessed powerful sword intent, Morikawa Yu and Kashima's sword intent and sword aura seemed to be far stronger than their master's.

Not to mention Morikawa Yu, even the sword intent emanating from Kashima, who just appeared, was far stronger than that of his master.

Moreover, Morikawa Yu's sword intent seemed even purer than Kashima's, and compared to his master, it felt like two completely different levels, just like when he and his master were still sword masters.

Sakurada Ichiro suddenly remembered that Morikawa Yu had said he was a sword saint, but he didn't believe Morikawa Yu at the time.

However, Morikawa Yu seems to really be a sword saint.

Sakurada Ichiro opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but Hanami Yuki in the distance waved her hand, signaling Kashima that he could make his move.

Morikawa Yuya took out Tsurumaru Kuninaga and Mikazuki Munechika from the Goshuincho space and hung them on his waist.

He gripped the hilt of a sword in each hand and slowly drew the swords from their sheaths. The blades of his two beloved swords immediately rang out with a clear sound, and the blade of Mikazuki even gleamed with a white light.

Not to be outdone, Tsurumaru unleashed a flash of light, making the surroundings seem even brighter in an instant.

Hearing the clang of Morikawa Yu's sword, Sakurada Ichiro suppressed the urge to speak, and subconsciously drew his sword as well.

Morikawa Yu glanced back at Sakurada Ichiro.

He noticed Sakurada Ichiro's actions and shook his head slightly: "Sakurada-kun, please stay away. Our battle doesn't need anyone else's interference, and you don't need to help either. Just wait on the side for a while."

Inaba Tenshi and Asaka also looked at Sakurada Ichiro and shook their heads, signaling him to step back and move away.

Sakurada Ichiro, a swordsman who has just become a sword master, is not qualified to participate in the battle between sword saints and demon gods, and is easily injured by the sword auras of Morikawa Yu and Kashima.

"I see!"

Sakurada Ichiro immediately stepped back.

Although it was obvious that Morikawa Yu and Inaba Tenshi looked down on his strength, he didn't mind at all; on the contrary, he was quite excited.

Because he was about to witness a battle between a sword saint and a demon who had mastered the swordsmanship of the Kashima Shrine sword saint.

This is a sword duel of the highest level that an ordinary swordsman might not see in several lifetimes. He can even brag about it to his fellow disciples for the rest of his life.

Sakurada Ichiro retreated all the way back, almost to the place where he had met Morikawa Yu.

Fortunately, after his swordsmanship reached the level of a sword master, his physique gradually became inhuman, and he could still clearly see Morikawa Yu and Kashima's figure even from that distance.

He gripped his sword, unfastened his backpack, leaped onto a nearby tree, stood on a branch, and gazed into the distance towards Morikawa Yu and Kashima. He saw a strong wind rising and thick, dark clouds gathering on the horizon.

Thunder rumbled and lightning flashed in the clouds, as if a thunderstorm was about to arrive.

Chapter 614 The difference between cuteness and the root of all evil lies only in whether or not someone is cute.

Morikawa Yu flashed away from where he stood.

He stepped through the mud in the woods, leaped into the air, and rushed toward Kashima. Behind him, Inaba Tenshi and Asaka circled around him, surrounding Hanamiyuki, who was not far from Kashima.

The three worked together simultaneously.

Morikawa Yu faces off against Kashima, while Inaba Tenshi and Asaka team up to capture Hanamiyuki.

This was also part of Morikawa Yu's pre-planned strategy.

This is the realm of history; we must destroy Hanamiyuki's consciousness projection to return to reality.

However, Hanamiyuki knew more about history than he did. Although he didn't know exactly how much more Hanamiyuki knew than him, she certainly knew more.

Moreover, Hanami Yuki also knows that death in the historical realm is not true death, but merely the destruction of a consciousness projection. She will definitely not surrender without resistance, but will fight to the death without any scruples, and may even perish together with him.

Kashima will also protect Hanami Yuki from the sidelines, looking for an opportunity to kill him and help Hanami Yuki obtain his power of shadow.

He might as well defeat Kashima, the sword demon god, first, and then he, along with Inaba Tenshi and Asaka, could righteously gang up on Hanami Yuki, the emotionless little girl, and win by taking a more conservative approach.

He also wanted to see the swordsmanship that Kashima had learned from the previous sword saint, Urabe Tomotaka. It would be even better if Kashima knew the "Ichi no Tachi".

Morikawa Yu was the first to arrive in front of Kashima, and swung his sword at Kashima.

Kashima was also ready, and raised his long sword to face Morikawa Yu.

The clash of their blades instantly unleashed a massive gust of wind and a deafening roar of thunder.

Morikawa Yu's swordsmanship includes both his own sword stance and the wind he controls.

Kashima's swordsmanship is not only about sword techniques, but also about the overwhelming force of thunder.

It seemed to be a kind of supernatural lightning power, more powerful and bizarre than ordinary lightning, and extremely difficult to deal with. If we don't find a way to solve it, it will cause great problems during the battle.
