I just wanted to become an immortal and was forced to open a harem

"How dare you show your ugliness even if you have a small skill?"

Lin Hezhen took out another talisman, wiped it on his eyes, and opened the "Sky Eye".He was now free from the influence of the cat demon's sonic attack, his five senses returned to normal, and he could see normally.

After turning on the "Sky Eye", the scenery in front of you is completely different instantly. In addition to the outlines of mountains, rivers and trees, you can also see various "qi" with a faint light.

This is the "Qi Watching Technique".

Everything has energy. From the perspective of the "eye of the sky", dead objects emit black energy, inorganic objects such as soil and rocks emit gray energy, grass and other plants emit green energy, insects and birds emit white energy, and distant cities Exudes red aura.

The purple evil energy emitted by the cat demon was also very obvious. He escaped from the evil energy and looked at the huge cedar tree where the cat demon was hiding.

The cat demon had a premonition that he was exposed, so he decisively stuck out his head, opened his mouth and spit out a ball of concentrated demon power.

It was a mass of demonic energy that had been condensed to the extreme, with an ominous meaning and super corrosiveness, and it struck quickly like a shell from a barrel.

Chapter 29 Cat Demon

Lin Hezhen didn't want to face the demonic cannonball, so he used the "Shukuchi Technique" to teleport 30 meters away and dodge the cannonball.

The Yaoli artillery shell fell on the ground, exploding a large crater about 6 meters in diameter and 2 meters deep. Centered on the impact point of the shell, sand and rocks flew around and no grass grew within 20 meters.

Since it was a cannonball with concentrated demonic power rather than a real bomb, there was no scene of thunderous explosions or billowing smoke. In addition, this was a suburb and there were relatively few residential buildings around it, so it did not disturb the sleeping Dongdu. citizens.

However, due to the influence of evil spirits, this area will not be suitable for biological survival for a long time in the future. The nearby animals and plants can easily mutate, which will cause damage to the ecological environment and is not conducive to sustainable development.

Seeing him dodge, the cat demon spat out demon power shells again and again, making up its mind to use a full-coverage saturation attack to deal with Lin Hezhen.

The monsters in this island country are the same as the people in the island country. They always like to destroy the environment and their quality is too poor.

Lin Hezhen was tossing and turning while thinking in his mind. It seemed that he had to deal with it quickly. He could not let it continue to pollute the environment like this, otherwise it would be troublesome to clean up later.

Lin Hezhen turned his Nascent Soul, and an overwhelming power rushed straight to his forehead. He snorted, and several flames spurted out from his eyes, nose, and mouth, and rushed towards the cat demon.

This fire does not harm mortal things, but when it encounters evil spirits, it burns instantly like falling into oil. It is the famous Samadhi True Fire.

The cat demon let out an earth-shattering wail, rolled on the ground, ran and jumped, even shrunk its body into the size of an ordinary cat, and jumped into a nearby stream.

Unfortunately, the true fire of Samadhi is not an ordinary fire. How can it be extinguished by ordinary water?Instead, it burned more and more intensely, gradually eating away the cat demon's demonic power and even burning its soul.

The soul is the foundation of demonic cultivation. If it is injured, it may be difficult to recover even after decades of hard training.

The cat demon was finally afraid. It endured the pain and lay on the ground. It knelt down to Lin Hezhen repeatedly and uttered human words: "Sir, please forgive me, please forgive me! I don't dare to do it anymore. Please let the little demon go!"

"I'm finally willing to talk. Wasn't it crazy before?" Lin Hezhen stood in the air, controlling the Samadhi True Fire to not harm its soul for the time being.

The cat demon transformed into a fat orange cat about ten pounds, with Samadhi True Fire still burning on its body. It said to Lin Hezhen in the posture of sitting on the ground: "The little demon has no eyesight and does not recognize Mount Tai. I thought those onmyoji masters are coming again." Trouble."

"Onmyoji? Does this country still have an inheritance of extraordinary power?" Lin Hezhen suddenly became interested.

The cat demon replied respectfully: "The little demon has been practicing for almost 100 years. Except for you, my lord, I have never seen a human being with magic power. Those guys who call themselves onmyojis are just some who hold strange objects and know a few tricks. In human society, Just a liar who shows off his tricks."

Lin Hezhen nodded. It seems that there is no true inheritance in this world. This may be related to the long period of low spiritual energy.

It is originally more difficult for humans to sense spiritual energy than monsters. Coupled with the deterioration of the cultivation environment, human lifespan is short, wars and disasters occur frequently, the industrial revolution and the rise of science and technology... In the modern era, all kinds of inheritance and classics of extraordinary powers have died out. .

Of course, due to the resurgence of spiritual energy, there may be some lucky people who awaken extraordinary powers by accident, and then explore a new power system on the ruins of the old system.

For example, isn't the cat demon in front of me just touching the threshold of Incense and Fire Shinto?

"It's a pity that you went astray. Incense Shinto is most taboo about interfering with reality on a large scale. That would have to bear the consequences of cause and effect and bear the punishment of heaven. But in order to gather the power of faith, you forcibly changed ordinary people's understanding of Sakurajima Mai, causing her to be unable to If you are observed, your sense of existence will disappear. This behavior has violated the laws of the world, and you are going to be in disaster!"

The cat demon was stunned when he heard this. No wonder it always felt uneasy these days. It thought it was being targeted by some other big demon, but it turned out that it was on the list of heavenly punishment.

Its hair stood on end instantly, and it felt extremely regretful, asking for help: "Then what should I do?"

"You should immediately return the things you took from her to their original owners, and then use the collected power of faith to restore people's understanding of her. This should be able to offset your fault."

"But," the cat demon said, "I have already transferred her things to another person. Unless that person gives up voluntarily, I can't take them away by force."

Lin Hezhen frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

The cat demon said embarrassedly: "How can I be so powerful that I can fulfill her wish? In fact, even I don't know what's going on."

So, the cat demon began to explain how he did all this.

It turns out that the cat demon discovered this thousand-year-old cedar tree decades ago. The cedar tree unconsciously absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, causing the place to be filled with rich spiritual energy. In order to practice, it turned into a wooden cat statue and took root here.

This cedar tree is very old and tall, and people have always come to worship it. However, the cedar tree only lived for a long time and did not become a spirit, so the power of faith was all taken advantage of by the cat demon.

The cat demon tried to absorb the power of these beliefs to practice, and ignorantly embarked on the road of becoming a god.

At the same time, it comes into contact with those human desires wrapped in the power of faith.

Over the years, it gradually understood that if human beings' wishes were fulfilled, they would become more pious, their fame would be greater, and more people would come to pray.

As a result, the cat demon began to pay attention to human prayers. Unfortunately, its intelligence was only equivalent to that of a seven- or eight-year-old human child, and it could not fully understand those wishes.My own abilities are also limited and I cannot realize other people's wishes out of thin air.

So it thought of a clever way to let some people voluntarily give up something and then transfer it to those in need, realizing their wishes through an "intermediary".

As for Sakurajima Mai, it can only be said to be a coincidence.

Originally, the cat demon only planned to use the power of faith to give her something like invisibility, but for some unknown secret, the girl unexpectedly absorbed the power of faith like crazy, not only stripping away her own sense of existence, but also changing her body on a large scale. Reality really shocked it.

Fortunately, her wish came true. Even though the cat demon felt distressed about the lost power of faith, there was nothing she could do about it.

As for Sakurajima Mai's presence, it was useless to keep it, so it was handed over to another girl who came to pray "hoping to become visible".

Knowing the ins and outs, Lin Hezhen finally had a clear understanding of the whole thing.

He asked the cat demon in detail about the image characteristics of the girl who felt Sakurajima Mai's presence, and the more he listened, the more he felt that it matched a certain person.

It was already daybreak. He collected the Samadhi True Fire, used his spiritual power to clean up the cat demon's aura, then filled the huge hole created by the explosion, cleaned the battlefield hastily, and then left here and walked down the mountain.

It was too late to go home, so he used the "dust removal technique" to remove the traces of the fight on his body, found his bicycle, and rode directly to school.

Chapter 30 Mai Sakurajima is gradually forgotten

When Lin Hezhen came to school, it was like the spring breeze blowing into the classroom in April. No one paid any attention to his arrival.

The previous turmoil has subsided, and these people have found a consensus to get along with him, which is to ignore him.

Students in this country will rush to pursue the current ones, fear to run away from the delinquents, ridicule and bully the weak, and choose this ostrich method to pretend they are invisible to those who cannot integrate and cannot be bullied.

It has to be said that they are in line with the temperament of their fathers and ancestors.

In fact, Lin Hezhen quite likes this state of not being disturbed.

However, there is a strange person in this class, and that is Kamigo Yoshihiko.

For some reason, he especially liked to get close to Lin Hezhen, which made him sometimes wonder if there was something wrong with this guy's orientation.

Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrived. Kamigo Yoshihiko came over excitedly, patted his shoulder and leaned into his ear, saying mysteriously: "Kazuma, the voting for 'Miss Academy' has begun, are you ready?" Who to choose?"

"Not interested." Lin Hezhen said without raising his head.

Uego Yoshihiko had become accustomed to his cold demeanor. He took out his mobile phone and clicked on a voting page with the names and photos of the participating girls.

"In order to eliminate the phenomenon of vote fraud, this year's voting webpage has been redesigned by the software company. Each IP address can only cast one vote. You see, the top three vote-getters are Kato Megumi, Yukinoshita Yukino and Kasumigaoka Shiwa. Among them Megumi Kato is far ahead in the number of votes and is worthy of being the strongest dark horse this year..."

Lin Hezhen interrupted his eloquent speech and asked: "Isn't there Mai Sakurajima?"

"Mai Sakurajima, who is that?" Kamigo Yoshihiko looked confused.

Now it was Lin Hezhen's turn to be confused. Has Mai Sakurajima's condition deteriorated to the point where even her classmates at school have forgotten about her?

Yoshihiko Uego thought hard for a while, and finally vaguely remembered such a person: "Third-year senior Mai Sakurajima seems to be very beautiful, and she used to be a star. I'm curious, why is she not among the candidates?"

Yoshihiko Uego finally thought of Mai Sakurajima, and Lin Hezhen breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that things had not collapsed beyond repair.

"Xiyan, do you still remember her? Tell me all about the impression she gave you in school."

"You are finally willing to call me by my name." He happily patted Lin Hezhen on the shoulder.

Perhaps because he was excited by Hayashi Kazuma's direct name, Uego Yoshihiko racked his brains to recall the information about Sakurajima Mai.

"I remember that Mai Sakurajima-senpai has always been a loner. I haven't seen her with anyone in school. She doesn't seem to have any friends. I heard from the seniors in the basketball club that she didn't come to school at all in the first year of high school because I still have work to do.”

"She only went to school every day after the summer vacation. At that time, after a year of getting along with her classmates, their relationships and small groups had been fixed. Mai Sakurajima-senpai was unable to integrate into the school atmosphere and became persona non grata. Everyone ignored it.”

"As expected..." Lin Hezhen finally understood Sakurajima Mai's situation in school.

People in this country attach great importance to ethereal things such as other people's evaluations, interpersonal relationships, and atmosphere. When they go to a new environment, the first thing they do is to integrate into the group and build a small group of their own.

Once a relationship is established, it doesn't change easily, and everyone feels secure that they have a place.

Although people say things like "It's so boring, isn't there anything new?", they don't really pursue change.

They are content to stick to their own habitat and are tired of maintaining their status in the class.

Mai Sakurajima, who only went to school in the second semester, was considered a difficult person to deal with.

She is a celebrity, so of course her classmates will care about her, but they don't dare to touch her casually.If you actively talk to them, you will attract attention. Someone will gossip behind your back, which may lead to you being isolated in the class.

Everyone knew this, so no one dared to risk contact with her.

The atmosphere of a class affects the atmosphere of the entire school, so Mai Sakurajima is regarded as an air by the students.

Although not being bullied can be considered a blessing in misfortune, this kind of "ignorance" can also be regarded as a kind of treating others differently. Part of the reason Sakurajima left the entertainment industry was because she wanted to live an ordinary life. It is obvious that her wish Didn't happen.

When things went against her wishes, she accidentally learned about the rumors of the Laughing Cat, and a series of things happened after that.

It can be said that those students who catered to the atmosphere and acted hypocritically were all accomplices in Mai Sakurajima's current predicament.

Lin Hezhen had no interest in studying the evils of human nature. He asked Shanggo Yoshihiko about the class where Mai Sakurajima was in and hurriedly left the classroom.

After going to the third-grade classroom, I didn't see Mai Sakurajima. I asked her classmates and found out that she had asked for leave today.

I don't know if it has something to do with the not-so-pleasant farewell between the two yesterday. Lin Hezhen felt that she was deliberately avoiding him.

Although it only took a small spell to find Mai Sakurajima, there was no need to do it. Lin Hezhen decisively returned to his class, preparing to find another person involved to solve the problem.

During the lunch break, Lin Hezhen took the lunch box he had made last night and went straight to Kato Megumi's seat.

"Kato-kun, can you please come out? I have something to tell you." He ignored everyone's gaze and whispered to Kato Megumi.

"Huh? Okay, of course."

Lin Hezhen nodded and walked out of the classroom door first.

Kato Megumi was tired of dealing with the girls who were eager to talk to her. Lin Hezhen's invitation rescued her from the encirclement, but soon she found herself in a more embarrassing situation.

The girls around her had the fire of gossip in their eyes and chirped: "That's classmate Lin Hezhen. What is he asking Hui for? Is it a confession?"

"Hahaha, Megumi is so popular. How many times is this since the beginning of school?"

"Actually, Classmate Lin is quite handsome."

"He is very handsome, but he got into a fight before and sent four boys to the hospital."

"No way, so violent? Wouldn't it be very bad if Hui rejects him?"

They looked at Megumi Kato worriedly, and then cast fearful and curious glances at Lin Hezhen.

Women are such contradictory creatures. They say they like mature and steady men, but in their hearts they long for mysterious and dangerous handsome men. They are really contradictory creatures.

Enduring all kinds of looks, Kato Megumi still followed Lin Hezhen to the rooftop with her calm face.

This is not the first time Lin Hezhen has come to the rooftop, the place where Brother Cheng once fought.Speaking of which, the first time he met Kato Megumi after he recovered his memory was also in this place of special significance.

However, Lin Hezhen did not intend to repeat the mistakes of his predecessors. He closed the rooftop door, put a talisman on the door to drive away idlers, and turned to face the girl.

"Kato Megumi, something happened to you!"

Chapter 31 Megumi Kato, want the real thing?

"Kato Megumi, something happened to you!"

Megumi Kato: "Huh?"

Although she guessed that Lin Hezhen came to her not to confess, but this kind of super development was really unexpected.

"Do you want me to cooperate in telling funny jokes? I'm not boasting, as long as I tell jokes, everyone will fall asleep."

"...Really." After hearing such a tragic speech, Lin Hezhen didn't know how to comfort each other.

But he quickly remembered his purpose, took out his mobile phone, and clicked on the link sent to him by Yoshihiko Uego.

When you open the "Miss Academy" voting page, the first thing that comes into view is the girl who currently has the most votes. Her daily life photos are placed in the most conspicuous place in the middle.

The girl has a cute bob short hair, a rabbit hairpin on her bangs, a white beret on her head, a white dress, a red sweater, and bows on the collar and waist. She is very dressed up. Girl next door.

Her fresh hair, delicate face, clear eyes, and the fresh and natural breath exuding from the inside out paint a beautiful picture, making her pure, lovely, and charming.
