I, Hikaru Uchiha, join the chat group

Chapter 210 The "magic" of the witch lineage

The moment the shadow clone and Esdeath appeared together, there was no suspense about the monster's ending.

Both Maitreya and Kikyo have the power to seal it, but they are unable to defeat it with their strength.

As for Esdeath, he can absolutely suppress it in terms of strength, but he lacks special means such as sealing techniques, so he cannot seal or kill it.

and so……

The two sides join forces to defeat the monster.

It only takes a few minutes.

Uchiha Hikaru stayed aside and watched with his own eyes as Esdeath and the two mikos joined forces to press the monster to the ground and blast it with a blaster, then used temporary sealing techniques to bind its body layer by layer, and finally used a giant A large amount of ice froze it into a giant ice sculpture tens of meters high, and the battle was finally over.

seconds before being frozen.

The monster was still staring at Uchiha Hikari and others with its scarlet eyes, and said the last harsh words: "Hmph, I miscalculated this time... I didn't expect that Maitreya actually found you group of helpers. But even so, you guys It’s impossible to kill me, that’s something no witch in the past has been able to do! When I come out next time, it will be the end of all of you!”

In order to satisfy Bulma's curiosity, Uchiha Hikaru verbally described the previous battle.

But by that time, she, Esdeath, Kikyo and others may no longer be in this world. There is no need to worry about future generations who are countless generations away.

Namikaze Minato also counts as one.

Miroku sighed: "Actually, you can roughly think of it as the clone of the first generation miko of the Ghost Country."

"Oh okay, I know."

Facing Uchiha Hikaru's inquiry, Miroku was silent for a moment, with a wry smile on his face: "I'm sorry, this matter is indeed beyond my ability... because the power of the 'monster' has the same origin as mine, and is far stronger. For me, I have no other choice but to seal it.”

"that is……"

Theoretically, it is indeed possible for the monster to be released again in a few years.

"Kikyo, what do you think?"

The group tidied up on the spot and then set off again. It took half a day to deliver the ice sculpture with the demons sealed to the Demon Sealing Mountain. Maitreya then activated the sealing formation in the mountain and sunk the ice sculpture into the mountain. deep.

"...It's not the same as the sealing techniques I've learned, but I can roughly see some patterns."

[Anonymous: No problem, I think Ms. Kikyo is also happy to discuss it with you. 】

"Alright."

[Buma: Xiaoguang, what does the "monster" you and Eriki talk about look like? Is it powerful? Why don't you start a live broadcast to let us see it! 】

"……No."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded.

Uchiha Hikaru had already heard this term once.

[Anonymous: The look of that thing, how should I put it, is a bit ugly...]

[Anonymous@永daimei: These are all the techniques that Miss Kikyo and I can see. What does Mr. Minato think? 】

"...This matter is the biggest secret of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and only witches of all generations are qualified to know it. You and your companions helped me seal the monsters, and you are the benefactors of the Kingdom of Ghosts. I dare not hide anything. But The reason is a long story, but please send the demon to the Demon Sealing Mountain first to complete the final seal, and then I will tell you everything."

During this process, Uchiha Hikaru and Kikyo followed Maitreya into the mountain and observed the sealing techniques of the miko lineage.

"You talk a lot."

"?"

Bulma and others are more interested in the monster monster.

Uchiha Hikaru yawned and waved his hands.

Platycodon belongs to this kind of "master".

Finally, I also asked about the latter's situation.

Compared to Namikaze Minato who likes to study "jutsu".

[Unnamed: [Sealing technique diagram.jpg]×20]

present.

Kikyo pondered for a moment and said.

Having said that...

"Same origin?"

"Miko-sama, are you really unable to kill this thing?"

Maitreya said.

The sealing technique in Naruto's world cannot be the same as the sealing technique in Inuyasha's world.

But this time, she frowned slightly, vaguely aware of something: "Can you elaborate?"

But the difference between the two is somewhat similar to the difference between different languages. Although the words, pronunciation, and grammar are all different, a master who is truly proficient in linguistics can quickly understand and master it by observing its underlying logic.

[Yong Daimei: ...I have long heard that the sealing techniques of the witch lineage are exquisite and unique, and it turned out to be so when I saw it today. Although I have learned the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan from my wife, I can't understand these techniques very clearly at the moment. It may take some time to study them slowly. 】

Hikaru Uchiha asked.

[Unnamed: Uh...forgot. 】

[Bulma: I have returned to the Dragon Ball world. Miss Najexitan gave me a lot of Oliha steel. I plan to study their ingredients with my father to see if we can use technological means to achieve reproduction and mass production. Yamato is also on my side. 】

[Gui Ji: Yeah, uncle Breev and Aunt Brigitte are so nice that they don’t care about my arrival at all! They also cooked a lot of food for me, which was much better than what I ate on Ghost Island! 】

【nameless:……】

It's normal for the Brives to accept Yamato. After all, these two are probably the most neurotic couple in the Dragon Ball world. Not to mention the 2.6-meter-tall Yamato, even if the 7.1-meter Kaido passes by, they will probably He is so accustomed to it that he even cares about whether Kaido, who is so big, can buy clothes easily.

but……

Judging from Yamato's attitude, it seems that he plans to go back to Onigashima after having enough fun outside?

Hmm... This is a bit like a child running away from home. Anyway, he will be beaten by his parents when he comes back, so he might as well have fun.

At this moment.

The chat group was flooded with pictures again——

[Gui Ji: Hey, the button for sending photos is here. It’s so magical. 】

[Gui Ji: [Almond Pudding.jpg], [Black Forest Cake.jpg], [Fresh Fruit Ice Cream.jpg]... these are all I have eaten in the past few days! 】

[Yoko Miko: It looks delicious. 】

[Tiger of the West: Indeed, it would be nice if I could eat some. 】

[Gui Ji: This is simple. I will ask Aunt Bijini for you. If she is willing, I will put the prepared pastries in the group store and you can buy them back and eat them. 】

[Tiger of the West: OK, I want to try the black forest cake! 】【Yitani Miko: Then I want almond pudding, thank you Yamato-san! 】

"Suck it..."

A series of pastry pictures flashed through his mind, making Uchiha Hikari feel a little hungry.

She originally wanted to ask Kizuna Hisahito where the progress of Spell Return to the World was, and whether she needed help dealing with the Spell Spirit. However, seeing that the latter was happily discussing food with Yamato and Miko, she guessed that he had recently I probably didn't encounter any major issues, so I stopped the topic temporarily and prepared to ask again next time.

——I said it was to help, but in fact, I mainly wanted to see those special spell spirits in the world of magic.

For example, Moxuluo.

And real people.

The abilities of these two curse spirits are very attractive to Uchiha Hikari. The former's super adaptability can theoretically overcome Esdeath's time-stop; and the latter's method of controlling souls might be able to repair Kikyo's incomplete soul. Even if not, it can at least help in the development of Yin-Yang Escape. Inspire.

of course……

Su Nuo is one of them.

However, this thing is not a separate individual, but a spirit body inhabiting the body of Japanese knotweed Hishito, which may be a little troublesome to solve. Especially if it doesn't hurt the "jinchuuriki" of Knotweed Hisahito.

In addition, we have to consider that Su Nuo is not a complete body now, but only has a few of the twenty fingers. Killing him so early is somewhat of a waste...

It takes a little more time and a long-term plan.

……

After completing the sealing ceremony of the demon.

Uchiha Hikaru and his party followed the miko Maitreya and returned to the capital of the Kingdom of Demons.

At this point, the crisis in the Kingdom of Ghosts has come to an end, but there are still some remaining mercenaries that need to be cleaned up.

Of course, the commission for this part is calculated separately, and basically only the finishing work is left. Without the blessing of monsters, the recovery ability of mercenaries is greatly reduced, and if it is broken a few times, it will become irrecoverable.

Team Kakashi from Konoha accepted the commission.

As for the two Yumu people, after receiving the reward for the task of "escorting the miko and sealing the monsters", they immediately said goodbye and left. They didn't know whether they were going back to Yunyin Village or to track down Beilihu's whereabouts.

Esdeath felt a little sorry for this.

"The blond woman's strength seems pretty good. I originally wanted to invite her to a fight."

"Well, there will be a chance. Next time I have time, I will take you to her village. There are two very powerful guys there who should be able to catch your eye."

——Yes, I am talking about the two brothers, the Fourth Raikage and Kirabi.

These two are both strong in physical skills, and one of them is a perfect Jinchuuriki. Together, they can probably fight Esdeath for a long time.

But now...

Uchiha Hikari was busy listening to the miko Maitreya's explanation of the origin of the monsters.

As said before...

The demon is actually the "incarnation" derived from the body of the first-generation shrine maiden of the Kingdom of Demons. The reason why the former transformed into this clone is related to the erosion of natural energy.

"Natural energy erosion?"

"Yes."

Maitreya nodded: "The origin of the miko lineage can be traced back to thousands of years ago, when the ninja sect had not yet appeared. At that time, there was no concept of chakra and ninjutsu in the world, only the ubiquitous energy in nature. Some talented humans discovered these energies and tried to absorb and utilize them, thus forming the profession of 'miko'.

A long time ago, there used to be more than one lineage of 'miko', but as the years have changed, most of them have fallen and been lost. Today, only the lineage of the Kingdom of Demons is still left. "

"I see."

Uchiha Hikari rubbed his chin: "In other words, the 'magic' of the witch lineage and the 'magic' of the three holy places are essentially the same thing?"

"You can say that."

Maitreya nodded again: "The so-called 'spiritual power' of the witch lineage is essentially the magical chakra extracted from the body by absorbing and refining the energy contained in nature.

But this kind of refining is not possible for everyone. I can do it mainly because I have the blood of a miko in my body, so I am born with the potential to do this.

In addition, some birds and animals have been exploiting and utilizing "natural energy" for a longer time and are more skillful than humans. Among them, the most successful cultivators turned into monsters and gathered together to form forces such as the Three Holy Lands.

On the contrary, due to physical problems, the upper limit of human energy tolerance for natural energy is much lower than that of those big monsters. Even those talented talents may die at any time in the process of absorbing natural energy for cultivation, or may be corroded by natural energy and become villains controlled by it. "

In fact...

Maitreya's statement is still a bit conservative.

Because it's not just humans.

Even the magic of the three holy places has a high failure rate when learned.

——The large number of toad statues on Miaomu Mountain are the by-products left behind by previous generations of contractors who failed to practice the "Sage Mode".

The frog characteristics that Jiraiya showed when he used the sage mode, as well as the inhuman and ghostly appearance of Kabuto Yakushi in the later part of the plot, are also side effects of the magic of Mt. Myoboku and Ryuji Cave.

As for other than the Three Holy Lands...

There is also an intuitive example——

Libra weighs me.

Jonggo is a born immortal with a human body, able to unconsciously absorb the natural energy around him.

Once these energies accumulate too much, they will erode Jugo's own will, causing him to change his temperament drastically and commit murderous acts that he would never do in a peaceful state.

I am afraid……

The first generation shrine maiden of the Demon Country had a similar physique to Jugo. After discovering that she had absorbed an excessive amount of natural energy and was unable to control it at will, the first-generation shrine maiden chose to separate these natural energies and seal them. Unexpectedly, she gave birth to a monster like the "Monster", which almost brought disaster to the world. bring huge disaster.

"understood."

Uchiha Hikaru now completely understood what Maitreya meant by "same root and origin".

The relationship between the witch and the demon is the same as the relationship between the god and the great devil Piccolo...

"So, I have a new question..."

Uchiha Hikaru took a slight breath and looked up at the miko in front of him: "Can the method of refining natural energy of the miko lineage be taught to others?"

"..."

Maitreya was silent for a moment and then slowly said: "I... I'm not sure."

"As I just said, I have the ability to temper spiritual power largely because my bloodline comes from the first generation of witches. And you are not a descendant of the witch lineage, so even if I teach you the method, you It may not work properly either.

of course……

If you want to learn, I will try my best. If we could analyze the principles of this refining method and make some adjustments according to our personal constitution, we might be able to develop our own 'spiritual power' system. "
