Chapter 35 Flame Pearl! The inheritance of ghost arts! (Please read it, please vote!)
Back mountain.

On the steep cliff road.

The distraught Kikyo looked like a drunken man, walking unsteadily.

Just when she was in a trance, her foot suddenly slipped and she was about to lose her footing and fall off the cliff. At this moment, a very powerful hand reached down from above and grabbed Kikyo's cold left wrist with great precision.

"You are…?"

Looking at the handsome and angular face above, the girl's eyes showed surprise.

The one who grabbed Platycodon grandiflorum's wrist was Li Xia, who was not injured and moved faster.

Beside him, InuYasha also stretched out his burnt left hand; it was just that it was half a beat slower.

"Come up!"

Li Xia exerted a little force, and the platycodon hanging below returned to the top from the bottom of the cliff.

Speaking of which, the other clay figures created by Li Tao are basically terracotta warriors and horses. Their faces are not only expressionless, but also hard. Kikyo's clay body is quite different. Although it still feels cold to the touch, it has flesh and blood. The wrist he holds is even softer, giving people an extremely clear sense of limb elasticity. In addition, the expressions are quite rich, even in details, they are no different from normal people.

This figure is so fake that it looks real!
Should it be said that it is a high-level ghost technique?

No wonder that in the original timeline, Kikyo held the hands of many little girls, and none of those children noticed anything unusual about Kikyo.

"What good will saving me do to you?
The person I am today is born of resentment;

If you don't let go of your resentment, you will continue to hate Inuyasha!
Once you let go of your resentment, it will disappear again...

Saving me is simply unnecessary! "

Kikyo sneered.

Inuyasha on the side was heartbroken to see his former lover in this state.

He secretly hated the monster behind the scenes even more.

After Li Xia pondered for a moment, he asked two questions:
"Miss Kikyo, are you still shouldering the responsibility of guarding the Four Souls Jade? In addition, what is your attitude towards the mastermind who coveted the Four Souls fragments and plotted against You and Inuyasha?"

As long as Kikyo picks up his responsibilities again, that's a good start.

Without waiting for this strange woman to respond, Li Xia smiled and nodded, then turned around and left quite neatly! Leave all the time and space to the two of you.

"Xia Jun, thank you!"

InuYasha spoke up.

I don’t know how many times he has thanked me.

In response, Li Xia just waved his hand behind his back and walked away casually.

The subsequent results were no longer important. He had done everything he had to do and no longer forced the rest.

He has other things to deal with now.

...

On the mountainside.

A thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl with long brown hair and fair skin was walking quickly through the mountain forest trails.

This woman has orange eyes and a high ponytail.

Although she is a girl, she has a tired and dead air everywhere.

There is no doubt that this girl, like Kikyo, is a clay figure resurrected by advanced ghost arts.

Just as she was walking through the small woods in the mountains and arriving at a clearing, a faint voice sounded behind her:
"After being resurrected by Li Tao, you have been controlled by that old witch, right? You even recognized the old monster as your adoptive mother, and during this period, you helped create a large number of pottery soldiers! Now that Li Tao has been robbed, you have also got rid of that old witch. The control of the old witch changed its direction and gained freedom!
Speaking of which, we are still your benefactors!
Isn't it a bit unethical for you to want to leave your benefactor without even saying a word of thanks? "

The one who made the noise was Li Xia, who was speeding up and chasing after him.

When the girl heard this, her steps stopped and her expression changed drastically.

When he looked back, he looked wary:

"what do you want?"

Li Xia raised the corners of his mouth slightly:
"Give me the old witch's advanced ghost skills, and we won't owe each other anything. What do you think?"

But the girl shook her head straightforwardly.

When Li Xia saw this, he couldn't help but frown:
"What? You don't want to?"

The ghost girl Li Tao died and turned into ashes in the wind. Even the fragments of her four souls could not be saved.

But her ghost technique, which is similar to the reincarnation of dirty soil, has not been lost.

The girl in front of him is a complete successor.

This woman's name was Yanzhu, and she was a well-known [ceramist] during her lifetime. It was precisely because of this that Li Tao resurrected her and adopted her as his adopted daughter, and by the way taught her the craft of making pottery figurines. Before Li Tao died, he had been obeying the old witch and made many pottery soldiers.

Not long ago, I witnessed with my own eyes the instant kill of Kikyo after her adoptive mother Li Tao was resurrected.

Without Li Tao's restraint, Yanzhu immediately regained his freedom.

According to the original plot development, she will be placed under house arrest by another masterpiece of Li Tao, "Wawan" before the Bailing Mountain incident, and will continue to help make pottery soldiers. Wawan provides Yanzhu with the dead souls needed to survive, as well as various materials needed for firing pottery figurines.

Until he bumped into the protagonist group, was saved by Kikyo, had his soul recast by Ali, and was redeemed by Inuyasha!

In the early days, on the mortal battlefield, this woman alone could defeat a thousand armies.

The reason for this? It is precisely because of the ghost skills taught by Li Tao. Advanced ghost arts are magical skills when used well.

Li Xia came here to pass on the legacy.

But right now, the little girl Yanzhu is a bit uncooperative.

"Thank you for bringing me freedom! But you are a human being, and a living person, so it is impossible for you to master ghost arts or the method of making pottery soldiers!"

The girl said apologetically.

If she just handed over the inheritance she had mastered, there would be no psychological burden on her.

But whether it is ghost magic or the method of making pottery soldiers, they are not areas that living people can touch.

She couldn't satisfy the demands of the person in front of her.

Li Xia, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Yanzhu's explanation:
"It's okay, you just need to give me the inheritance of Li Tao! As for whether I can learn it in the end? That's my own business. Even if I can't learn it, I won't offend anyone."

Demon power? He possesses a large osmanthus mask and multiple four soul fragments, so he has no shortage of them!

At this point, the girl had no reason to refuse.

If you refuse out loud, it will be a betrayal.

"The ghost arts I learned are divided into three major chapters...

The first chapter is the basic ghost technique, which can make ordinary pottery figurine soldiers. This kind of pottery figurine does not have any memory of life and can only follow orders in a confused manner.

The second chapter is about intermediate ghost arts, which can create pottery figurines with their own independent consciousness and individual emotions, as well as some of the memories and specialties of their lifetime. I am the product of intermediate ghost arts.

As for the advanced ghost arts in the third chapter?
That requires the caster to have considerable demonic power and use special magic weapons! Not long ago, the miko who killed her mother was a masterpiece of advanced ghost arts!

And those resurrected by advanced ghost arts are usually those who had special powers during their lifetime!

After they were resurrected, they not only had independent consciousness and all the memories of their lives, but also retained all their specialties and abilities! And their clay bodies are closer to humans! Except for the fact that he has no internal organs, no breathing pulse, no body temperature, etc., he can almost be regarded as a real person in many other aspects! For example, the miko who killed her mother, after being summoned and resurrected, has the power of the miko in her lifetime..."

When she thought of Platycodon grandiflorum, she felt a little afraid.

The voice had a slight vibrato.

"anything else?"

Li Xia listened carefully, recorded the whole thing, and asked for advice humbly.

Don't miss any punctuation mark.

In this way, the two of them returned to the mountain hand in hand.

"Well, there are indeed some things to note! Determining whether a ghost spell can be successfully performed depends not only on whether the clay body contains enough ashes of the deceased, but also on whether the other party's soul is alive and reincarnated... If it has been reincarnated, Usually it is impossible to succeed!
Furthermore, the integrity of the clay body is also very important..."

Yanzhu told me all the details, no matter how big or small.

This certainly made Li Xia very satisfied.

Finally, the little girl became a little coy again.

"what happened?"

Li Xia asked.

Yanzhu lowered his head and pursed his lips, then finally raised his head and looked directly at him:

"Can I know the reason why you learn ghost arts?"

Li Xia smiled heartily:
“First, protect yourself!
Because I have some ideas of my own and have to do a lot of things! In this process, I will encounter many vicious monsters! It can be said that my life is under strong threat at all times!
Ghost magic can give me an extra layer of protection!

Second, expand productivity.

Yanzhu, have you ever thought about it? Help people in poor villages and resurrect their deceased relatives, so that the resurrected people can help their families farm and open up wasteland, greatly reducing the family's labor costs! In this world where monsters are rampant, the resurrected can also give their families and even their villages a little protection!
Don’t neglect a good deed because it’s too small! "

Anyway, without the dead souls being replenished in time, the pottery figurines will be offline soon.

This also means that the world of the living will not be overwhelmed by the dead.

"I see!"

Yanzhu, whose future was originally hazy, seemed to have caught a ray of light.

There was a different look in his eyes.

The whole person seemed to feel a lot more relaxed.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Enzhu-sensei...!"

Li Xia smiled and bowed.

The girl was a little at a loss and looked very cute.

...

He bid farewell to InuYasha and the others, and told Ergouzi to return to the village and recuperate.

Li Xia stayed with the two daughters, Platycodon grandiflorum and Yanzhu.
