Chapter 175

Chapter 175
On February 1238th of the year of the Black Iron Calendar, a man followed the crowd into the capital of Fuso.

"Is this the super-10th-order sacred tree? It's quite majestic."

Ash looked up at the hibiscus tree that illuminated the entire Kyoto, but unfortunately the tree was of no use to him. Its greatest use was to produce talisman paper and talisman liquid for the Onmyojis of Fuso.

Unfortunately, he is not an Onmyoji, so he can't use his second body as a magician.
Thanks to the hibiscus tree, the temperature here remains around ten degrees Celsius when other places are still covered with winter snow.

Although it's a bit cold, we can still get by if we can gather together to keep warm.

Therefore, beggars can be seen crowded together in groups of three or five in every corner.

As the capital of a country, there shouldn't be so many beggars, but many ghost kings and gods gathered in Kyoto, and they all had dirty backgrounds. One can imagine how many heinous things they did in secret.

Ash's approach not only failed to calm them down, but made them even more crazy.

Boom!

The iron hooves stepped on the bluestone slabs, making a clanging sound. Two green-scaled horses, each ten feet tall, were pulling a luxurious carriage on the road.

The coachman on the carriage didn't even shout, just let the horse rush forward, completely ignoring the pedestrians still walking on the road.

After more than a month of torture, the residents of Kyoto had long been accustomed to this and immediately hid to the side, fearing that they could not escape it.

But there was still a person on the street who did not avoid or retreat, but was still walking slowly in the center of the street.

When the coachman saw this scene, a hint of sarcasm appeared in his eyes. He didn't expect that there would be a fool who dared to block his master's carriage and seek death.

But who is seeking death will be revealed in the next second.

"Fizz!"

Just when they were about to hit the man in front, the two green-scaled horses raised their hooves and neighed in fear as if they had seen something horrible.

Then the next second, they could make no sound.

Bang! The headless bodies of the horses fell heavily to the ground, just like the people they had kicked to death before.

The groom showed a look of horror on his face. You know, neither of these two horses was weaker than him, but the man in front of him killed these two horses without any unnecessary movements.

"What's going on!" A gloomy voice sounded behind the coachman, and the coachman immediately calmed down. His master was a god, and there was no one in Kyoto that he couldn't afford to offend. Even the Saint Master had to give him some face.

After all, the current emperor's queen is his master's sister.

The carriage curtain opened automatically, revealing a fair, handsome but gloomy young man.

The young man glanced at the scene, and then his eyes fixed on the man in front of him: "Sir, what do you mean by blocking my way?"

"Arima Demon?" The man's voice was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect it to be him.

When the man turned his head, the familiar style of the black faceless mask and the black background with a golden dragon robe reminded the young man of something, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Without hesitation, Arima Guishen kicked the coachman towards the man, and rushed out from the back of the carriage, shouting "Enemy attack!"

Before the groom hit Ash, he exploded into a pile of blood mist and merged into the blood-red ground.

Ash looked at the Arima demon god who was facing a formidable enemy in the sky with his eyes slightly narrowed. He didn't like looking up at others when talking.

“【Kneel down】!”

It was as if a true god had sent down an oracle, and an unstoppable force suppressed Arima Demon.

Boom!
Like a meteorite falling to the ground, Arima Demon God was directly suppressed on the street, and cracks spread for dozens of meters on the ground.

"You can't kill me!" Arima Demon said with difficulty as he looked at Ash who was getting closer and closer.

The only answer he got was the sound of footsteps approaching.

boom!
Stomping on the head of the Arima demon god like stepping on a watermelon, Ash said softly: "There is no one in this world that I cannot kill, only those I do not want to kill."

A sea of ​​blood rose up and swallowed up the corpse of Arima Demon God.

The smell of blood in the air became stronger as the sea of ​​blood emerged. The mood of the many ghost kings and gods who were awakened by Arima Demon God's words became more solemn, and they all stared at the man in the center of the sea of ​​blood carefully.

The sea of ​​blood was surging and covered the entire city in the blink of an eye.

Standing in the center of the sea of ​​blood, Ash looked like an unparalleled devil.

"Everyone, are you ready to die?" Ash's voice was calm, but it exploded like thunder among the many ghost kings and ghosts.

Without hesitation, many ghost kings and gods rushed towards Ash.

At this point, they all knew that there was no possibility of negotiation with Ash.

Only one of the two sides can survive today!
Ya Xiu held the sword and pointed it at the sea of ​​blood under his feet. In an instant, hundreds of blood puppets of various shapes emerged from the sea of ​​blood and faced the surrounding ghost kings and gods.

The blood puppet and the ghost king and ghost gods immediately started fighting each other.

In the blink of an eye, the huge Kyoto became a battlefield, and each wealthy family activated their own defense formation to resist the aftermath of the war.

Ash in the center also suffered the biggest battle so far, with three demigods joining forces to surround and kill him.

The middle saint master is Dayou Yingming, the Thousand-armed ghost god and the Double Dragon ghost god.

"Where is the fox demon? Why doesn't she come over?" Otomo Yingming asked calmly.

"Waves are coming." Yaxiu held the sword, and his body expanded and changed, transforming into the true form of Yinglong with three heads and six arms.

The chain runes on his body broke inch by inch, and Ash's momentum continued to rise endlessly.

"Can I ask what your purpose is?" Otomo Yingming pinched the talisman paper in his hand, "If it's just for the power of faith, we can definitely discuss it."

"We can't discuss it." Ash chuckled playfully, "Would you negotiate with a bunch of food?"

"It's really a heretic." Otomo Yingming sighed, then shouted coldly, "Do it!"

The talisman paper burned, and rounds of light arrows flew by, with a power that could pierce even pure gold; the Thousand-Armed Ghost God's thousand hands each made a seal, and one monster after another smashed towards Ash; the Twin Dragon Ghost God had two heads and two mouths wide open, and two beams, one red and one blue, shot towards Ash.

“Hahaha, you’re saying I’m an evil heretic?” Ash laughed. His six swords turned pitch black and slashed down at once. “You guys don’t deserve that!”

hum!
The loudest sound is silent, and the violent sound waves cause all things to resonate and then shatter.

boom!
Some blood puppets and ghost kings were accidentally caught in the dissipated energy and were torn into pieces.

The battle started, and Ash was the first to kill the Thousand-Handed Demon.

In team battles, kill the back row first. Although Otomo Hideaki and Thousand Hands Demon God are both mage type, Thousand Hands Demon God is obviously weaker.

When the Thousand-Armed Demon God saw Ash coming to kill him, he immediately retreated, while the Double-Dragon Demon God rushed forward with a large sword in each hand.

The six swords swung in a circle, attacking the two dragon ghosts like chasing stars and the moon, each strike faster and heavier than the last.

The twin dragon ghosts were immediately suppressed, and they couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved and shocked in their hearts, because their fighting skills were completely at a disadvantage.

A hundred swords in one second. In just one or two seconds, Ash had gathered his strength and chopped down with six overlapping swords.

【All Ten Directions Are Destroyed】

Rumble!
Just like the water of the Milky Way flowing back, the destructive energy erupted endlessly, engulfing the figures of the two dragon ghosts.

"what!"

A scream rang out, but it was not from the Twin Dragon Demon God, but from the Thousand Hand Demon God. At some point, another "Ash" appeared behind the Thousand Hand Demon God and cut off dozens of its arms with a sword.

Otomo Yingming glanced around and found that most of the ghost kings and gods around him had been killed or injured at some point.

How could it be so fast!

Otomo Yingming was stunned. He took the talisman paper in his hand and wiped his eyes. Then he immediately noticed a blood dragon hiding in the sea of ​​blood, which jumped out from time to time to kill the ghost king and ghosts.

It's Victoria.

When the sea of ​​blood appeared, Ash had already quietly summoned Victoria. Because she also had the power of blood and was Ash's follower, she could perfectly integrate into Ash's sea of ​​blood.

Although she is just an ordinary demigod, but when combined with Ash's blood puppet, she can kill anyone below demigod with accuracy.

Otomo Eiaki made a prompt decision and turned around to deal with Victoria. The more combat power Ash released, the lower their chances of winning.

How could Ash let him get his wish? He turned his body, and his three heads and six arms degenerated into two heads and four arms, and there was another Ash to entangle Otomo Hideaki.

The single Ash was obviously no match for Otomo Yingming and was defeated step by step.

With a long roar, all the Ashes' momentum rose to a higher level again.

【Life in Bloom】

The single Ash held back Otomo Hideaki again, while on the other side Victoria had already killed the Demon King and started killing demons and gods.

This made the demigod in secret a little uneasy.

If the fighting continues, Fuso's national strength will undoubtedly plummet to the bottom.

In Tiansheng Palace, the residence of the Emperor, a plump woman in red and white clothes stood up and walked outside. She wanted to suppress the evil spirit.

But before she could take a few steps, a woman with black hair and gold clothes blocked her way.

"Asakusa Ruri." The woman said in a firm tone.

Asakusa Ruri nodded: "It's me, can you please be quiet, I can ask the master to spare your life afterwards."

"Master?" The woman looked at Asakusa Ruri and said, "How could a fox demon like you recognize your master?"

Asakusa Ruri couldn't help but squeeze her legs together: "I can't help it, the master is so big, he has completely conquered me."

"She is indeed a vixen." The woman spoke with contempt, "She actually recognized her master for something like that. She is unworthy of being a demigod!"

Pah! Asakusa Liuli opened her folding fan, a cold light flashed in her eyes: "I originally wanted you to serve the master, the master seems to like you very much, but since you said that, I have no choice but to ask you to die!"

"You deserve to die, you shameless beast!" The woman took out a large bow, and then a beam of light condensed, "Go to hell!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the arrow shot out and arrived in front of Asakusa Ruri in an instant.

But the light arrow only reached Asakusa Ruri when an invisible barrier blocked it.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort from Asakusa Ruri, the light arrow instantly shattered.

The golden hairpins, the gemstones, the belt all shone brightly, and a surging torrent of elements washed over the woman.

Rumble!
The movements of the Tiansheng Palace were naturally known to the other two holy palaces.

In front of a desk, the former Saint Master Makino Teruto and the latter Saint Master Ashiyamiya Shihiro sat opposite each other.

After noticing the movement, Makino Teruto put down his teacup and said, "It's our turn to take action. If we continue like this, our losses will be even greater."

"Okay." Ashiyamiya Zhihong nodded happily.

But as soon as the two stood up, Ashiya Tomohiro suddenly attacked, and a short sword so sharp that it could cut through space stabbed towards Makino Teruto.

Makino Teruto seemed to have anticipated this, as a turtle shell suddenly blocked his back.

clang!
After a crisp sound, it was Makino Teruto's calm voice that could not hide his anger: "Do you know what you are doing, Ashiya!"

"I know." Ashiyamiya Zhihong nodded, "Please stay here quietly, Master Makino. After the matter is accomplished, you will still be able to hold a position second only to the emperor and above all others."

"What if I say no!" Makino Teruto said in a cold voice.

"Then I have no choice but to go and tell Master Makino to die." Ashiyamiya Zhihong still said with a smile on his face.

As he spoke, he turned the dagger in his hand, broke through the turtle shell, and pierced straight into Makino Teruto's heart.

Makino Teruto didn't want to be stabbed by Ashiyamiya Shihiro's dagger. Who knows what kind of difficult curse or poison was on it.

There are very few poisons that are effective against demigods, but that doesn't mean there are none.

Makino Teruto leaped back, and then his whole body was covered with golden light, and his old appearance became younger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The skinny body swelled up like a balloon, and finally a three-meter-tall, muscular man stood in front of Ashiyamiya Zhihong.

"Are you ready to roll me into a meat ball, Ashiya?" The sturdy man grinned at Ashiya Miya Shihiro.

"It's time for you to turn into a meat ball, Saint Master Makino." Ashiyamiya Zhihong chuckled, then took out a scarecrow, and with his hands, the scarecrow immediately crumpled into a ball.

The opposing team, Makino Teruto, also suddenly formed a group.

With only his face exposed, Makino Teruto spoke with difficulty: "How is it possible? Ashiya, what did you do?!"

"Do you think I only did those things in the last few decades?" Ashiyamiya Zhihong slowly walked in front of Makino Teruto and whispered, "It was more than a thousand years ago."

"No, it's impossible!" Makino Teru stuttered. More than a thousand years ago, Ashiyamiya Zhihong was not even a demigod.

"Nothing is impossible." Ashiya Shihong raised his dagger, "You are too old. You are too old to know change. You are destined to be eliminated by the times."

"No!"

puff!

The dagger pierced into Makino Teruto's forehead, and the curse on it immediately took effect, petrifying him into a spherical statue.

Ashiya Shihong nodded slightly upon seeing this. Even for him, it would take a lot of energy to kill a demigod of the same level. However, now was not the time to waste energy, after all, there was still a powerful enemy outside.

Therefore, sealing up Makino Teruto is the best option at this time. It saves time and effort, and there is no need to worry about him suddenly jumping out and causing trouble for him.

"Take him away." Ashiyamiya Zhihong said indifferently.

Then a black shadow emerged and swallowed up the stone ball that Makino Teruto had transformed into.

Ashiyamiya Zhihong sat down to drink tea again. It was not time for him to finish yet.

On the other side, on the battlefield, Otomo Hideaki's face became increasingly ugly, not only towards the current situation, but also towards the other two saint masters.

He knew that something strange must have happened on Makino Teruto's side.

They had been aware of Ashiyamiya Zhihong's strange behavior over the years and had been secretly wary of him.

Ashiya Tomohiro will not come to support, but Makino Teruto will definitely come.

But up to now, almost all the ghosts and gods are dead, and Makino Teruto has not taken any action. Something must have happened.
