Inuyasha's journey to immortality

Chapter 81 The second encounter between Li Xia and Platycodon grandiflorum
  "The hearts of humans and half-demon are really fragile things."

"Sadness, fear, confusion...

For those who enter this area, as long as their bodies come into contact with the branches and vines covering the ground, or are stuck to the falling dead leaves, the shadows in their hearts will be infinitely magnified, and their souls will be dragged into the darkness.

No human being or half-demon can resist the explosion of his own dark side...

Huh? "

Naraku's wooden puppet is talking and pointing out the country.

A Li entered the sorcery coverage area he had arranged.

However, what made him a little surprised was that the girl ignored the magic he cast and walked straight towards the Godly Tree.

"What's going on with this little girl?

Why was it that she, who was also exposed to those canes and fallen leaves, was not aroused by the shadow in her heart?

Is it because she carries four soul fragments with her, or is it because the shadow in her heart is not big and the dark side has not yet emerged? "

Naraku was a little confused.

He was a little unsure about A Li.

"That's all, let her come over. There is a stage here, just for you two..."

While talking, Naraku's wooden puppet came to Kikyo's side.

However, what greeted him was a simple blow from the hand.

This move may be said to be simple, but it is extremely fast, accurate and ruthless.

This is a skill Kikyo developed during her occasional close combat with monsters.

Although it looks very ordinary, ordinary people can swing their arms and slash it out; but if it is blessed with the spiritual power of a miko, and it is the spiritual power of a miko with advanced cultivation and high strength, this blow cannot be regarded as ordinary.

It can almost kill most of the demons with the force of cutting through gold and jade.

This is not.

Naraku's wooden puppet was instantly killed without any resistance: its head flew up high and then fell to the ground.

As for Platycodon platycodon, she only said lightly:
  "Being smart."

...

The wooden puppet was destroyed, and Naraku, who was two hundred miles away, suddenly turned his head and looked at a wooden sculpture wrapped in spider silk on the windowsill.

"The puppet was destroyed?"

The young man narrowed his eyes.

Then he frowned slightly and looked in the direction of Maple Village through the open window:

"How dare that woman lie to me?"

...

Outside Maple Village.

Next to the Bone Eating Well.

Inuyasha was still trapped in his own illusion, but Kikyo and Ali met under the tree first.

"Bikyou?"

A Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the one holding the four soul fragments was Kikyo.

However, when she took two steps forward and wanted to say something to Kikyo, Kikyo shot an arrow directly towards where she was standing. It was the arrow that destroyed the demon. After the purple purifying light spread, the ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a bottomless abyss as dark as ink.

The sudden weightlessness and sudden fall frightened the 15-year-old girl into screaming.

In addition, the feeling of watching the sky above gradually turn into a wellhead, and the wellhead is getting smaller and smaller, and the light is getting weaker and weaker, makes the girl suffocated and makes her heart heavy. At this time, it was impossible to say that she was not flustered.

"Natsu-kun, Inuyasha...!"

Out of instinct, A Li called out these two names.

Above, Kikyo frowned after hearing the call coming from the abyss.

But obviously, this call cannot reach the ears of some people.

Just when A Li could barely see the light above, just when she was confused and faintly despairing, a group of white dead soul insects flew up from below and gently caught her as she was falling rapidly.

Then he lifted her up to the ground again.

The two looked at each other again.

"Jikyo, you..."

A Li's heart was extremely complicated, and at the same time he felt unspeakably aggrieved.

She didn't do anything wrong, so why did Kikyo treat her like this?
  "You have been targeted by a dangerous guy. His name is Naraku. He is the culprit that caused Inuyasha and I to hate each other. He is an evil person who hides in the dark and has been spying on the Shikon Tama."

Kikyo opened her mouth and revealed the news that surprised A Li:

"Naraku was a little afraid of your innate ability, so he also tested me, so he used the four soul fragments to control me and wanted me to fight you."

"What? For me to fight with you, isn't his intention too vicious and sinister?"

A Li said very angrily.

As the reincarnation of Platycodon, she occupies most of the soul, and she has some subtle guilt for Platycodon in her heart.

After Kikyo's resurrection, his existence mainly relies on his obsession with resenting Inuyasha. It is not easy to find himself again. Once he takes on more resentment and guilt, he will completely become a monster.

But what A Li didn't know was.

Director Nai's plan goes far beyond this.

Because no matter who on either side hurts whom, no matter who kills whom, Naraku changed his direction and lost a big threat. (At least that's how it seems on the surface.)
  The key is that the two miko who are stained with the blood of their opponents will have a huge sense of guilt, guilt, and even guilt towards each other, leaving a big scar on their hearts. As long as this scar does not heal, A Li will lose the ability to purify the four soul fragments.

After all, a dirty mind cannot purify the Four Souls Jade.

"Eh? Kikyo, why are the four soul fragments on your chest red?"

The two of them were already face to face at close range.

In this case, both sides can naturally clearly detect the status of the four soul fragments on the other side.

"red?
  snort!
  I am a shrine maiden who purifies the Four Souls Jade, and I am not so destitute that I will be controlled by a mere fragment of the Four Souls! "

Kikyo expressionlessly took out the fragment with her hands. At first, the fragment was blood-red, and Naraku's will still resided on it; but as the blue-white light spots emerged in his hand, the blood-red four-soul fragment was immediately washed away from all filth and turned into a noble one. Mild lilac color.

After purifying the four-soul fragment on his body, Kikyo reached into Ali's chest and took out a small glass bottle hanging around his neck.

This glass bottle contains several clean fragments of the Four Souls.

It’s all collected through everyone’s hard work. "Even if I give you the Four Souls Jade, you won't be able to deal with Naraku; losing these fragments may actually be a good thing for you."

As for her, she actually didn't want Inuyasha, Ali and others to get involved.

Just leave everything to her alone.

Naraku is special. When she goes to the cave where Ghost Spider stayed to get some things, she can become invincible.

There's really no need to involve other innocent people.

"Miss Kikyo, is it that difficult to believe in us?"

Under the imperial tree, a very inappropriate voice sounded.

However, Kikyo didn't show the slightest surprise at this, as if he had known that an uninvited guest was coming there.

"Does Mr. Xia want to stop me from taking these fragments?"

After the dead soul insects placed the hypnotized A Li on the soft grass, they all flew to Kikyo's side.

"I do think so. But now that everything is in your hands, how confident can I be?"

Li Xia, who was wearing a mask of both crying and laughing gods, took a deep breath and then exhaled the turbid air.

Followed by a teleport across more than thirty meters, he flashed to the side of A Li who had fallen asleep. After briefly checking the little girl's condition and confirming that she was fine and just falling asleep, he carefully picked her up and placed her on an unfolded sleeping bag.

"You care about her?"

Kikyo, who had witnessed all this, had his eyes wandering and his face was uncertain.

Li Xiacai didn't want to go around too much with this overly confident and conceited woman:

"Higurashi-san is kind-hearted, pure-minded, has huge potential and a promising future. She is also lively, lovely, well-behaved and beautiful. What man would not be tempted by such an outstanding and good girl?

Li is not that lumpy elm! "

"Also, Miss Kikyo, thank you for your kindness in stopping Higurashi-san from collecting the four soul fragments.

But if you can discuss with us and explain the whole story and the important relationship, so that we can understand your intentions; then we can make our own choices, and the results may be much better. At least there won't be any misunderstandings between us, let alone being plotted by others because of that little misunderstanding. "

A few words express several meanings.

"Because we didn't speak clearly to each other, someone took advantage of us? Are you reminding me not to repeat what happened fifty years ago?"

Kikyo asked with a smile, and put away the eight four soul fragments she got from A Li.

Li Xia did not directly reply yes or no, but laughed at himself:
  "When I went out to collect the four soul fragments before, I made decisions for them based on my own preferences for good and evil, but the result was an unpleasant incident.

Later, everyone shared their thoughts. After everyone talked, I realized my mistake. Only later did I realize that I had become a little arrogant, self-righteous and too self-centered without even realizing it. "

"After that experience, I will no longer easily make decisions for others."

"Miss Platycodon, maybe your starting point is good; but sometimes, a good starting point may not bring good results."

Eyes facing each other.

What Li Xia saw was scrutiny and surprise.

What Platycodon saw was calmness and sincerity.

Both of them were silent for a while, and finally, Kikyo took the lead and said:

"There are some things that it's best if you don't know and don't participate..."

"If you don't tell Inuyasha and Higurashi-san, won't they be involved?"

Li Xia sighed softly.

"In that case, be careful yourself Naraku. Sooner or later he will come and snatch the four soul fragments from you."

This is Kikyo's last advice.

Also a warning.

"If you are confident that you can deal with or even deal with that guy named Naraku, then be sure to prepare a few more back-ups! Once your trump card is exposed, the other party may always find a way to crack it!"

Don't underestimate the potential and wisdom of that big boss, Platycodon...

Li Xia also gave his own advice.

When he finished speaking, he had already walked slowly to the bone-eating well with A Li in his arms. Without waiting for Kikyo to persuade him to stay, he jumped in directly.

His limit is approaching.

...

Why did he rush to A Li?

Of course I heard Ali's call.

The sacred tree next to the Bone-Eating Well conveys the girl's call to the corresponding sacred tree mask through some special resonance! He felt a little worried about A Li, so he immediately made a choice: to force his way into the witch barrier set up by Platycodon grandiflorum.

So why can he pass through Kikyo's barrier?

Considering the teleportation power of a single Goshenmu mask, he couldn't completely ignore Platycodon's barrier; so, he asked Maitreya to cooperate and use the wind cave to shake the barrier first, and then he put on two Weeping and Laughing Goshenmu masks. Use teleportation.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes.

After wearing two masks in a row, his teleportation ability has changed in nature.

It was easy to get into Kikyo's barrier.

It’s just too much of a burden.

Now, his whole body was burning and he felt like he was being torn apart.

Human beings' fragile bodies simply cannot bear the four-star level of demonic power!

Wearing two masks on his face at the same time was beyond his limit!
  Fortunately, he held on when he was trying to stabilize Kikyo! No flaws revealed! Otherwise, the six four-soul fragments on his body would definitely not be protected.

...

As the two disappeared into the bone-eating well, Kikyo also withdrew his gaze.

"I haven't seen you for more than a month, but a little mage actually mastered such methods..."

A group of dead soul insects supported her and quickly flew away from here.

Before the witch's barrier dissipated, she took a deep look at a nearby forest.

There, InuYasha has been stuck in a fantasy world since he was attacked.

"Can such a level of sorcery and illusion make you sink?
  InuYasha…”
