Inuyasha's journey to immortality

Chapter 57 The second shikigami of the contract... (please read it, please vote!)

Maple Village, under the sacred tree.

Everyone gathered here.

Li Xia took thirteen four-soul fragments from A Li's hand.

Among them, one is from the big osmanthus mask, one is a contribution from Maitreya, and one is from the painter's hand. In addition to the four provided by the demon slayer village and the remaining six in Li Xia's hand, there are ten in total. Three pieces.

(Considering that more than half a month ago, Naraku collected twenty or thirty pieces; now that more than half a month has passed, the guy will only have more jade fragments in his hand.

This is also the main reason why in the original timeline, after Kikyo took away the large piece of the Four Souls fragment from the protagonist group and gave it to Naraku, the Four Souls Jade formed by Naraku's fusion was directly over half. Because the huge incomplete jade of four souls obtained after the fusion was the result of combining at least forty or fifty fragments.

And in the future, Naraku will collect at least 8 fragments related to the former bandit leader, Barbarian Snake Bone and other members of the seven-man team without damaging most of the four soul jade.

Plus a dozen or so scattered pieces...

It can be roughly speculated that A Li's shattered Four Souls Jade was conservatively estimated to have turned into sixty or seventy fragments.

And just a little more.

After all, the sixty-seventy films are viewed from the perspective of the protagonist group. Subjectively, Naraku's collection of four soul fragments during his active period was slowed down and placed on the same level of action as everyone in the protagonist group. But this obviously underestimates Naraku's intelligence capabilities and regional governance capabilities, which have countless fiercest victors as sentinels. )
  Closer to home.

Next to the bone-eating well outside the village, the sacred tree where Inuyasha had been hung for fifty years had its smooth side carefully carved out by Li Xia into the outline of a human face.

The face on the tree trunk had exquisite features and a handsome face; the key was that it was exactly the same as his face.

The size is exactly the same.

This is simply his "other face".

Then, under everyone's surprised gazes, Li Xia took out one of the thirteen four-soul fragments that had been purified by A Li and embedded it between the eyebrows of the face on the tree trunk.

The next moment, the originally clear sky suddenly became overcast.

The originally peaceful earth suddenly began to tremble slightly.

It was as if something huge and huge had awakened beneath the ground.

"Wake up, spirit of the sacred tree...

Gather all your will into this mask and wake up quickly...

Your time has arrived! "

Li Xia waited beside the sacred tree, mumbling several words like a magic stick.

However, the moment he finished speaking:

"Buzz...dongdong,dongdong..."

A sound similar to the rhythm of the heart broke into everyone's ears!

This made Inuyasha's expression become alert and solemn, ready to pull out the iron broken teeth and strike with all his strength at any time.

Maitreya responded seriously and was ready to use the wind cave to fight at any time.

A Li, who was wearing a red and white witch costume and looked exactly like Platycodon but had a different charm, was a little nervous. However, the girl remembered Li Xia's instructions, so she was always highly focused and could bend her bow and shoot an arrow to destroy the demon at any time. arrow.

Qibao and Ah Ba, who were far away, seemed to be aware of this, and hurriedly hid behind Granny Feng, who had an extremely solemn expression.

"Thank you, thank you for giving me the four soul fragments, which enabled me to awaken my independent consciousness in advance..."

Amid everyone's shock, the face on the sacred tree opened its eyes with beautiful golden-blue pupils, and then its lips moved and uttered human words.

"Success?"

“This tree really gave birth to consciousness?”

"Is it really possible?"

"Is what Mr. Xia said true?"

"Amazing…"

Everyone present felt incredible.

Under the imperial tree in front of everyone, Li Xia was extremely excited, but his face remained calm.

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart, he looked at the face that was exactly like his own carved on the tree trunk, and suddenly felt like he was looking into a mirror.

"Spirit of the sacred tree, I am very happy and honored to be able to help you. This is the first time we meet. My name is Li Xia. Please take good care of me in the future..."

Li Xia simply introduced himself.

In response, the Godly Tree shook the branches of the tree and rustled: "Xia Jun, you specifically used the power of the Four Soul Fragments to help me awaken my independent personality and will, but is there any use for me?"

A sacred tree that has existed for at least six hundred years has been infected by Platycodon's spiritual power and Inuyasha's demon power for a long time, or it has been "nourished" by the two forces for fifty years! Even if there is no chance of the Four Soul Fragments, in the future, it has great hope of becoming a tree demon like Pu Xianweng! And he is the leader among the tree demons.

But even though it had a hundredfold confidence in itself, it did not deny Li Xia's "favor of reinvention" to it.

"Spirit of the sacred tree, you who have been stuck in a small place for hundreds of thousands of years without being able to move, must be very unwilling to continue to waste time in such a hard place, right?

Concentrate your power into that mask, then break away from the tree and become my shikigami.

I can take you to witness the scenery thousands of miles away, to appreciate the various aspects of life and different scenery, to feel the different tastes of traveling across thousands of mountains and rivers, to experience flying in the blue sky and even swimming in the vast starry sky. It’s so cold at high places…”

"Leave the tree, become a shikigami, and then follow you?"

On the trunk of the sacred tree, the face became a little cloudy and uncertain.

It was as if he was caught in an inner battle between heaven and man.

At this moment, A Li got encouragement from someone's eyes and asked the spirit of the sacred tree who was in tangle and hesitation:
  "Spirit of the sacred tree, I beg you to be our partner, Mr. Xia. We want to collect all the four soul fragments to bring peace back to this world; but during this period, we will definitely encounter a lot of resistance, and in the end even You will encounter a powerful monster holding multiple fragments.

It's not easy to put all the pieces together; therefore, our team is always growing.

We need the help of many like-minded people.

I hope you can also become Xia Jun and our partner, and fight side by side with us. "

As soon as A Li's voice fell, InuYasha on the side immediately spoke up and extended an olive branch to Yu Shenmu:

“I didn’t expect that you could also be born with spiritual wisdom.

Old acquaintance, how about joining us? "

The request of these two people is something that the psychic sacred tree will consider no matter what.

The relationship between it and Kikyo, Inuyasha, and Ali is very deep.

Li Xia begged A Li to put on the witch uniform in advance, and this was the extra layer of purpose.

In fact, he was a little unsure whether Mishenmu would have an almost buggy space-based auxiliary ability like in the Yashahime anime after gaining the power of the four soul fragments.

The sacred tree mask is different from the big osmanthus mask.

The latter's ontology only has that little potential.

To be able to control the poisonous dragon with the appearance of a big monster, he had to kill the poisonous dragon first. If you dare to put the big osmanthus mask directly on the poisonous dragon's face based on its own power, it will be in vain for Roubaozi to beat the dog.

The mask on the sacred tree is quite different.

Not only does it have huge potential, but if it can really harness the potential power, that is, the power of the "Era Tree", I am afraid that it will be able to form considerable auxiliary capabilities right now.

Therefore, if conflicts can be avoided, then conflicts should not break out.

It would be great to be able to achieve the purpose of the contract just by talking.

In the plot of the anime Yashahime, this psychic sacred tree can condense the phantom of platycodon (in an attempt to harvest the feelings of old fans, but few old fans buy it). This tree can open a space passage similar to the Bone Well, reconnecting the two worlds that were disconnected due to the disappearance of the Bone Well.

Through this passage, it can transport people from this world to the modern world where A Li lives.

In addition, it also has long-distance one-way transmission capabilities.

As for the two abilities, are there any other abilities? It is unknown.

There was no way. When Li Xia saw the plot related to Yasha Ji, he felt that it was too ruined for the classics, so he decisively closed the continuous membership of station B. The subsequent plot is not memorable at all.

...

The contract altar, shrine, intermediate spirit-sealing talisman, spirit of the sacred tree, and contract magic formula are all ready.

The final contract can be completed right away.

Li Xia only needs to carry out the contract ceremony in an orderly manner and repeat the entire process of contracting the Daguishu Mask two months ago.

But the accident still happened.
