I, the young onmyoji

In this case, Chang Ran chose to leave Heian Kyo and settle in Toyama, the residence of the Tengu clan.

A person who has lived for two hundred years and has not changed at all is not good at staying in Heian Kyo, right? Although he is a member of the Abe family, because he has not appeared for a long time, the Tsuchimikado family has no longer been around since the wedding. Now that they know what happened to Chang Ran, everyone thinks that this great elder who has never shown up has died of old age.

Therefore, Changran felt at ease and lived the life of a rice insect in Toyama.

However, because he was going to stay in Toyama for a long time this time, Changran stepped forward.

He appeared in front of the Tengu as the best friend of the Great Tengu (male), and took Xiaodama with him in the form of Cirrus Cloud. In this way, the image of the demon fox father and daughter was established in the eyes of the Tengu. Then he stayed in Toyama and let the Daitengu raise his family.

Speaking of Toyama, there is an interesting thing, and that is Inugami.

When Masaran, who was still a human, brought the Inugami to Toyama for the first time, the Inugami called himself Shiba Inu Tengu and deceived the Crow Tengu. This time he came to Toyama again and unexpectedly met the Crow Tengu who was deceived by him last time.

Then Inugami immediately pretended to be Shiba Inu Tengu again, and started to fool the Crow Tengu. Although Inugami didn't have to pretend at all because of the big Tengu's words, he seemed to like this way of playing, hanging out with the Crow Tengu. We were having a lot of fun together, and so was the White Wolf Tengu. Because the accidents were all from the canine family, they got along very well, especially one of them, a loli named Inuzuki.

It seems that the last time I came to the Toyama Festival, the Inugami was playing with him. Now he has grown up a little. When he saw the Inugami, he jumped on him with joy, and then pestered the Inugami. I have to say, Inugami became an enviable single dog with a house and a lolita.

That's it.

As the times slowly progressed, samurai control became stronger and stronger, and the status of the onmyoji became lower and lower. Even in the later years of the Kamakura shogunate regime, the scope of the onmyoji's activities was limited to the situation around Heian Kyo. The reliance on Shinto is also getting lower and lower, and the gods appear less and less often.

What resulted from this was the rise of monsters.

Due to the suppression of the Tengu clan, there were not many problems in the central area, but in all parts of the island except the central area, where onmyoji could not be dispatched, the power of monsters began to rise.

This caused the Tengu clan's dominance to begin to loosen.

After all, among the Tengu clan, the Otengu is the great youkai. The other Crow Tengu and White Wolf Tengu are much weaker, and the Otengu has never given birth to any offspring, so this situation is very difficult to handle.

However, just at this time, Hagoromo Fox was reincarnated again.

This time she was reincarnated with six tails. Compared to the three tails she had when she first encountered Changran, her power now should be several times stronger, plus the power of the underworld.

Therefore, this time, Changran did not send out the Tengu under the Great Tengu. In other areas, when the monsters in other areas did not care much about the Tengu clan, sending out the Tengu clan would lead to unnecessary wars.

So, this time Changran set out on his own.

"After being a rice bug for two hundred years, it's time for me to make some moves."

In the 14th century, the Kamakura shogunate fell, Japan officially entered the Warring States Period, and the monsters also entered the Warring States Period. In this case, Abe Masaran took action again.

"Jade of the Four Souls?"

In the forest some distance away from Toyama, Changran was walking on the forest path and looked at the little monster beside him with some confusion.

"That's right, it's the Four Souls Jade."

The little monster nodded seriously.

"What it is?"

"I don't know, but I know it's something very powerful."

The little monster disturbed the leaves on his head and thought about it.

"I don't know when that thing appeared. It seemed to be in the hands of humans at first, but now it is being fought over by monsters in turn. As long as the monsters get the Shikon Jade, they will become very powerful, and listen to That said, the Four Souls Jade has the ability to grant wishes."

Changran was surprised by the monster's explanation.

"Is this the reason why the monsters in the West are in chaos now?"

"Not just the West Country, the whole of Japan should know about the Shikon Tama."

"What a shame, I didn't know."

Of course, this sentence was not said directly.

"In other words, the Shikon Jade is the cause of the sudden rise and chaos of monsters in Japan..."

Chang Ran came to such a conclusion.

"The reason why they rose up was because they wanted to gain power, so they started fighting. And because there was the Jade of the Four Souls, the monsters had a goal and no longer cared about the Tengu clan. After all, the Great Tengu hadn't appeared for a long time. ”

"What about you? Do you want the Four Souls Jade?"

Changran asked the little monster beside him, the little monster he just met on the roadside.

"If you ask me if I want it, of course I want it, but a little monster like me doesn't have the power to fight for it, so it's impossible to get it."

"But what if you get it? If you get the Four Souls Jade, as you said, you can become a big monster. Then other monsters will be no match for you."

"Forget it. I feel that even if I get such a strong power, I still can't fully control it. Before I became a big monster, I was already killed by other monsters."

It seems that this is a little monster with self-awareness, and he did not snatch the Four Souls Jade like other monsters.

Changran had quite a good sense about this little monster.

"But now the power of the Onmyoji has been severely reduced. They are all huddled in Heianjing. Everything outside Heianjing cannot be taken care of. It is really difficult."

It has to be said that this situation is the result of the shogunate's rule. If all the monster incidents in Japan were under the supervision of the Onmyo Lao like the Heian period, the monsters in Japan would not become as rampant as they are now. Although the Onmyo Lao is now There is no great Onmyoji, but at least mid- to low-end monsters can still be defeated. After all, big monsters don’t appear that easily, right?

"What a tragedy of the times."

Changran couldn't say anything about this. He couldn't overthrow the samurai ruling class and restore the rule to the conditions of the Heian era. He was not that kind of person.

However, Changran himself is considered ignorant. Since the death of Hagoromo Fox Four Tails, he has basically been a rice insect, letting his wives support him. He is taken care of by his wives and Ibaraki every day, and then he lives every day. I played with Xiaoyu for nearly 300 years, and I was so decadent.

"So now I'm out to make Xiao Lin's ideal come true again."

He inexplicably raised his head and said this in mid-air, which made Xiaoyu, who was sitting on his shoulder, full of questions. She looked up at the sky, looked left and right, but saw nothing.

"Who are you talking to, father?"

"Father didn't speak to anyone, he was just talking to himself."

Touching Xiaoyu's head, Changran answered with a smile. This time, he only brought Xiaoyu with him. Neither the Great Tengu nor Ibaraki was brought out, and the Inugami was not brought out. As for why he was not brought out, it was because Changran was there. Over the years, I accidentally learned a technique, which is a technique based on the relationship between the master and the shikigami. It allows the shikigami to be unconditionally summoned to the master no matter where he is, using a different space as a transit station, similar to Changran also created a small alien space in the heaven where Qingming's generals usually lived when they were not appearing.

As long as Changran is summoned, the shikigami in the distance will first enter the different space, and then appear next to Changran through the different space. In this way, Changran does not have to drag his family with him every time he goes out.

As for her daughter Xiaoyu, she has always taken her with her. After all, she is a daughter.

"That's it."

The obedient Xiaoyu nodded, then continued to hold Changran's head and look around.

It took decades to travel all over the island to make all the monsters on the island obedient and obey the rules set by the Great Tengu, so that the Tengu clan would be in a dominant position.

But now the Tengu clan has lost its dominance. It can only be said that it is the ruler of some areas in the central area centered on Toyama.

So this time Chang Ran came out, in addition to looking for the Hagoromo Fox who had been reincarnated by divination, he also had another task: to deal with the monsters again, so that the monsters could return to their original situation.

But this Jade of Four Souls should be considered an unexpected situation.

"Although it was an accident, it also pointed out a way for me."

Regarding the Four Souls Jade, Chang Ran can be sure of one thing, that is, if it can give powerful power to monsters, Hagoromo Fox will definitely snatch it.

Now that the power of Baqi and the Killing Stone cannot be obtained, this Jade of Four Souls can almost be said to be Hagoromo Fox's only target.

All he has to do is wait and see.

"So, do you know where the Four Souls Jade is now? I think the guy who got the Four Souls Jade will not give up showing off."

"Well, the one who currently has the Four Souls Jade is a giant centipede, and it's in the Kansai region."

"Kansai, it should be in the west of Heianjing. It's obviously right next to Yin Yangliao, but I didn't know it at all. It's really..."

Chang Ran shook his head with a wry smile and waved to the little monster.

"Well, that's all I've asked. Thank you very much."

"It's nothing, I just want to help you, sir."

Changran's power is too powerful for the little monster, so the little monster is also very polite.

"Then, I'll go first."

After saying that, he hugged Xiaoyu's dangling calves tightly to his chest, made Xiaoyu sit firmly, and Changran flew away directly.

After coming out of Toyama, I learned so many things at once, but I had quite a lot to deal with.

I don't need to worry about the situation of Tsuchimikado in Heianjing for the time being. It would be of no use if I did. None of them probably know me, so I might as well forget it and go directly to the location of the Jade Monster with the Four Souls.

Accelerating in the sky, like a meteor, it flew directly to the Kansai region.

Owning the Shikon Tama is a big deal.

Any monster can be described as extremely happy after getting the Four Souls Jade, and he will definitely show off his power and show off his power.

After all, monsters don't have very good IQs.

Therefore, after arriving in Kansai and passing by Heian Kyo, Chang Ran quickly learned the location of the Jade Centipede with the Four Souls.

"You can feel this strong demonic energy from afar. It's really not low-key at all."

Flying low against the treetops, Changran didn't need fireflies to feel the huge demonic energy in the valley not far ahead.

It's not just one evil spirit, but many evil spirits gathered together. The different evil spirits are clashing crazily. It seems that this big centipede is being attacked by other monsters.

After all, the Shikon Jade is still very attractive to monsters, and it is normal for it to be attacked.

Smiling slightly, Changran sped up and rushed towards the valley where the demonic energy erupted.

When they reached the edge of the valley, a brake landed on the highest stone on the edge of the valley. He grabbed Xiaoyu in his hand and pulled Xiaoyu back, who almost flew out due to the brake, and let her sit firmly on his shoulders again.

It would be very troublesome if you accidentally overshoot. Now there are a bunch of monsters tearing at you down there.

"This kind of scene is really disgusting."

The whole valley is filled with the corpses of monsters. The huge centipede is in the center of the valley. It is not dead, but there are a large number of other monsters wrapped around it. It is easy to feel that those monsters are just trash fish, but This huge centipede is a slightly more powerful fish.

Changran could see a bead shining with purple light inside the centipede. That thing should be the Jade of the Four Souls.

The monsters that often surround the centipede's body are biting the centipede's body crazily, probably to find the Four Souls Jade, but unfortunately, it seems that because of the Four Souls Jade, the centipede's body has become abnormal. It is suggested that the miscellaneous fish monsters have no chance of biting the centipede's body to obtain the four soul jade.

Changran looked around and found no trace of Yuyihu. Thinking about it, in this case, Yuyihu couldn't directly appear to rob. She was not the kind of person who was brave and foolhardy.

"Then, let me accept this Jade of Four Souls."

In order to hide his identity a little, Changran did not use Tianhu's flame, but used Shutun's power. After so many years, because of Tianhu's transformed body, Changran has been able to use most of Shutun's power. , coupled with the power of Tianhu, Changran is now considered a great monster in two parts. Besides that, he is also a great onmyoji. Although he uses little onmyoji, he basically just buffs his weapons. .

His right hand turned into a ferocious ghost hand, with black flames emerging from the palm of his hand.

Then, he raised his right hand high above his head, and the black flames in his hand began to expand rapidly, and separated from Chang Ran's palm.

Under Xiaoyu's curious gaze, the black flames slowly rose and quickly grew in size, turning into a huge fireball that looked like a black sun from below.

The terrifying temperature also made the monsters in the valley below feel it, and they all looked up to look at the huge black sun in the sky.

Seeing that it was almost done, Changran raised his right hand and waved it towards the center of the valley.

The huge black sun also followed Chang Ran's gesture and fell directly, hitting the monster's body without the monsters reacting at all.

The black fireball exploded instantly, turning the entire valley into a sea of ​​fire.

The monsters were all burned by the flames, rolling their bodies but unable to extinguish the flames.

Soon, the bodies of the monsters stopped struggling, then fell to the ground and gradually turned into ashes.

In the center of the flame, a purple jade bead floated low in the sky, shining with purple light.

Opening his hand, the purple bead floated into Changran's hand and landed firmly on his palm. Then the light dissipated and it looked like an ordinary jade bead.

"Is it polluted? It's filled with a lot of filth."

After all, they are ordinary monsters, and it is normal for them to be full of filth. It is impossible not to be polluted by these miscellaneous fish monsters.

His right hand turned into a normal shape and he held the Jade of Four Souls in his palm. Chang Ran instantly felt the power in it.

"So that's it? The power of the soul? No wonder it's called the Four Souls Jade. There are so many souls of monsters in it. No wonder it can increase the power of monsters. However, the amount of improvement is only that much. Let's forget about wish fulfillment. .... Oh? There is even a human soul... If the underworld knew about it, would it send a ghost envoy to come?"

"Father, what is that?"

Xiaoyu seemed to be very curious about the Four Souls Jade, and kept staring at Changran's right hand with her eyes wide open.

"Well, it's a good thing for little monsters. Although it's not particularly powerful, it is somewhat dangerous to some extent."

After explaining to Xiaoyu, Changran opened his palms again and suddenly started singing.

"Return to destiny! There is no birth! Tathagata! Great vow! Void and formless! All Tathagata!"

The purification spell was cast, and the powerful spiritual power instantly purified the dirt contained in the Four Souls Jade in the palm of his hand, and the Four Souls Jade also changed from purple to bright pink.

He threw it to Xiaoyu who was curious.
