"Please come in." The woman who opened the door opened the wooden door and stepped aside to make way for Ito Sei to enter. After Sei Itō entered the courtyard, she closed the door and slowly walked in front of Sei Itō. She led him to the room where the head of the Ichika family, Ihika Ichika, was.
"My apologies, please allow me to report," the woman slightly leaned forward and said politely.
"Please," Sei Itō also bowed back and said.
The woman bowed back and walked to the room where Ihika Ichika was and said softly, "Family head, there is a person who claims to be a messenger from the Ichika family. He says that he wants to discuss the marriage between young master Ichika and young miss Huang Quan."
"Is that so? Let him in." After the woman finished speaking, a deep male voice came from the room with the wooden sliding door.
"Yes." The woman responded respectfully. Then she turned to look at Ito Sei, who was standing and waiting. She stretched out her hand, indicating that he could go in.
Seeing this, Ito Sei nodded and strode to the front of the room. He took off his shoes at the door and stepped into the room that exuded a cool aura. He saluted the man who was sitting on the futon and reading something in the room. "Greetings, Iigon-sama."
"What instructions does Ihika-sama have for you?" Hearing Sei Itō's greeting, Ihika Ichika did not let Sei Itō sit. He stopped reading and looked up at Sei Itō.
"It's like this. Because of young miss Huang Quan's wishes, our family head has decided to cancel this marriage," Sei Itō lowered his head and said.
"How can that be? We just agreed on this a few days ago. Why are you suddenly changing your mind? "Ihika Ichika frowned as he stared at Sei Itō.
"My apologies, this is the family head's decision. I don't know," Sei Itō shook his head and said.
"And he only sent a servant to inform me …" Ihika Ichika said unhappily, "It seems that I need to see family head again and see what he wants."
Ihika Ichika closed the things in his hands and stood up from the mat. He angrily walked out of the room. But the moment he walked past Sei Itō, the submissive Sei Itō suddenly made his move. His palm hit Ichika Ichika Ichika's neck and knocked him out.
"plop." Ichika Ichika Ichika Ichika fell to the ground like a piece.
After that, Ito Sei formed a seal with one hand and used the Mind Reading Technique to read all the information about Guan Hu in Itoka's mind, as well as the location of Itoka's secret technique collection room.
Fortunately, when Sei Itō used his mind-reading ability, no maid or anyone else appeared. This allowed Ito Sei to smoothly read the memory information in Itoka Ji's mind.
"Looks like I'm in luck. Itō family's Guan Hu recently gave birth to a group of little Guan Hu, which saved me a lot of trouble. "After a while, Itō Chenglong exhaled and thought to himself.
Sei Itō immediately bent down and picked up Itoka. Tossing him into a dark corner of the room, Seiji cast a Transformation Technique to change into his appearance and slowly walked towards the library in Itsugu's memories.
Compared to the inconspicuous library of the Hanshan Clan, the library of the Izuga Clan was much more eye-catching. Not only was the exterior of the building clean and tidy, but it also had a large number of other buildings. Even the protective barrier was set up brazenly.
However, Sei Itō didn't care about this. He directly followed the hand seals in Itoka Ichika Ichika's memories and walked into the passage created by the hand seals.
"So little. It doesn't even have a third of the number of books in the Hanshan Clan. Moreover, most of them are related to spirit beasts. However, it's better than nothing." Ito Sei casually pulled out a few ancient books from the bookshelf in the room and quickly flipped through them. He curled his lips and said secretly.
Sei Itō then closed the books in his hands and returned them to their original position. Seiji then opened the entrance to the Rubik's Cube world and stored the books on the bookshelf into the Rubik's Cube world.
"Done. Now it's time to get Ichika Ichika." Sei Itō used his mental power to scan the room. After confirming that he didn't miss anything, he turned around and left the library. Seiji restored the protective barrier and slowly walked towards the back of Itsugu's house, close to the forest.
In fact, there were also people in the Origin World who could control foxes. However, compared to the spirit beasts in the Spirit Eating World, the Guan foxes were small, cute, and loyal. In the Origin World, the method of obtaining Guan Hu was incomparably cruel, and there was always the danger of betraying their master. Therefore, other than the clans that could only rely on that method to maintain their inheritance, not many people had the heart to make them.
Of course, in the Origin World, there were naturally demon beasts similar to the Spirit Eating World, but they were rare species. Apart from the Edo period, they were extinct in the modern era.
As for the other method, it was said that a living fox had to be buried in the ground, leaving only its head exposed. Then, it would be severely beaten and starved for a few days. During this time, a large pile of food would be placed in a place where the fox could see it, so that it could see but not eat it. When the fox's desire and resentment reached its peak (usually seven days), the cruelest method would be used to make the fox die full of hatred. Once the fox died, the soul of the fox would be sealed in the idol with the Soul Seal Spell. After that, the process would continue until the fox was obedient to the creator. This process usually took forty-nine days.
After the Guan Hu was made, the fox's soul would normally reside in the idol that sealed it. When something happened, the idol that contained the fox's soul would be placed in a bamboo tube and brought out.
The Guan Hu made in this way was also known as Itsugu. Its main function was to attack the mind. It could cause the opponent to suffer from schizophrenia or mental illness. It could also directly possess an opponent with weak mental strength and cause them to commit suicide. It could also subtly change someone's perception of the fox master.
However, because this method of making Guan Hu was too cruel, and because animal souls were naturally more vicious than human souls, Itsugu would find an opportunity to take revenge on its master.
Later on, people also used cats and dogs to replace foxes to make Guan Hu, and it was said that the results were not bad. However, Sei Itō felt that the soul of a dog would most likely become the Inugami, not the Guan Hu. If it was a cat, it would naturally become Nekomata, and it would not be suitable to make Guan Hu.
…
"I'll give this to Reina as a gift. I think she will like it." At this time, Sei Itō, who had already arrived at the Guan Hu breeding room, looked at the Guan Hu cubs lying in the small straw box in the room and thought.
However, just as Sei Itō reached out to pick up a Guan Hu cub, an adult Guan Hu suddenly stood up. Its white fur stood up, and it stared at Sei Itō with a ferocious face, as if it wanted to attack at any time.
"As expected of the spirit beast Guan Hu. It can feel that I'm not Itsugu's Ji family." Seeing the Guan Hu's action. Sei Itō chuckled and muttered to himself. Then, he spread out his mental strength and cast an illusion on the Guan Hu. The moment the Guan Hu was affected, he quickly pointed at the Guan Hu's forehead and knocked it out.
Then, Sei Itō's mind moved. Together with the Guan Hu breeding room and all the Guan Hu in the room, he put them into the Rubik's Cube world. He placed them in the dense forest not far from the central area of the house.
"Now, all that's left is the Tsuchiya family." At this time, Sei Itō did not care whether or not he would disturb the Itsugu family's defensive barrier. He directly jumped over the high wall of the Itsugu family's backyard and jumped into the forest. As he went down the mountain, he thought to himself.
After Sei Itō left the mountain area. He directly raised his hand to stop a taxi and went to the Tsuchiya family's shrine.
The Tsuchiya family, the true leader of the Yin-Yang Sect, the hidden guardian of the Tsuchiyumon family, Abe Seimei's descendant. On the surface, their duty was to protect the safety of Kyoto and lead the Yin-Yang Sect forces behind the Tsuchiyumon family.
The current head of the family was Tsuchiya Yamura. He was a burly middle-aged man who had inherited the strongest spirit beast Bai Rui from his wife.
"I hope Tsuchiya Yamura is not at home right now. Otherwise, I might really have to fight." After more than two hours of driving, Sei Itō arrived at the foot of the Tsuchiya Shrine, which was located at the edge of Kyoto. He looked up at the huge protective barrier above him and thought to himself, "After all, this time I have no excuse to enter the barrier from the front door. I can only take one step at a time."
Then Sei Itō stepped forward and walked step by step towards the Tsuchiya Shrine.
When Sei Itō walked halfway up the mountain, a young woman dressed as a Miko slowly walked up to Sei Itō and said, "This guest, please wait. This shrine does not welcome ordinary visitors." She said politely.
"I know." Sei Itō heard this and smiled at the Miko. Then, he used his Psychic Power to activate the Illusion Technique, turning into a big tree and imprisoned the Miko in place.
"Be a good girl and sleep." Sei Itō leaned half of his body out of the tree trunk and put his hand on the Miko's neck and said softly.
Then, the Miko fell asleep without even making a sound.
Then, Sei Itō stretched out his hand and carried the Miko into the nearby forest. Then, he continued to use the Mind Reading Technique to read the Miko's memories. After reading part of the Shrine's memories, he used the Transformation Technique to change into the Miko's appearance and walked into the Tsuchiya Shrine according to the Miko's memories.
And with the Miko's identity as a Miko, Sei Itō's entry into the Tsuchiya Shrine was naturally much smoother. They barely ran into any obstacles and entered the shrine without a hitch. Then, he pushed forward layer by layer, changing into different identities. It didn't end until the person who had the right to enter the Ancient Records Collection Room entered the collection room.
"That Miko's appearance was too sudden. If it weren't for her, I'd probably be fighting with the Shrine's guards by now." Sei Itō reached out and took a book from the bookshelf and flipped through it. "But the only pity is that this collection room is only of a general nature. It's not the one that only the Master of the Tsuchiya Shrine can enter."
After thinking about it, Sei Itō put the book in his hand back to its original place, opened the Rubik's Cube world, and put the book and the bookshelf containing the book into the Rubik's Cube world.
The moment the bookshelf and the book disappeared, a pale yellow barrier light suddenly lit up in the room, imprisoning Sei Itō and at the same time sounding the alarm, informing the guards that the book was stolen.
Sei Itō was only a little surprised by the tight security of the Tsuchiya Shrine. Then, he turned his hand and a long sword appeared in his hand. Covering the sword with Psychic Power, he slashed it from top to bottom. A bright silver sword light instantly emerged from the sword and slashed heavily on the barrier outside the collection room.
"Boom!" The collision of the two Psychic Powers, one defensive and one offensive, instantly burst out with an explosive sound. Then, the barrier outside the collection room flickered twice and naturally dissipated in the void.
Seeing this, Sei Itō stepped on the ground and turned into a black shadow, instantly jumping out of the room. Without distinguishing the direction, he casually found a place with few people and rushed straight out.
Seeing the direction Sei Itō escaped in, a guard in the Tsuchiya Shrine hurriedly reminded loudly, "Don't let him escape."
Hearing the guard's reminder, the guards who had been waiting with rapt attention became more serious. They squatted slightly and aimed their swords at Ito Sei who was rushing over. They were ready to strike with rapt attention.
"Flash." At this moment, a black light suddenly appeared on the surface of Sei Itō's body, and then his originally extremely fast speed became even faster. While the guards were stunned, he passed by them in an instant.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" Because of his extreme speed, the sharp wind and blade energy caused wounds to appear on the bodies of the guards. Blood spurted out like blood flowers and splashed onto the ground.
"Ah ah ah ~" After the blood fell to the ground, the guards immediately reacted and immediately let out painful screams.
Along the way, Sei Itō didn't stop. Everyone who blocked his way, regardless of whether they were men or women, was defeated with one slash, and quickly rushed out of the Tsuchiya Shrine without stopping.
"Roar!" Just as Sei Itō was about to rush to the edge of the Tsuchiya Clan's barrier, a beast's roar suddenly sounded behind Sei Itō. Then, a giant beast covered in white fur, with two pairs of eyes, a ferocious expression, and several chains tied around its mouth and body, emitting a violent fluctuation of spiritual power, rushed behind Sei Itō and bit at him.
"Bai Rui! Tsuchiya Yamakura is back!? " This thought flashed through Sei Itō's mind when he turned his head and saw the giant beast attacking him. Then, his left foot fiercely stomped, and his right foot made a half circle on the ground. At the same time, his body rotated, and his arm slashed upward. A crescent-shaped silver light suddenly appeared in the air, cutting a long bloody wound on Bai Rui's open jaw. Then, Sei Itō's body leaned to the side, avoiding Bai Rui's inertia.
"Boom!" Bai Rui, who failed to attack, hit the ground heavily. A deep pit was formed on the ground paved with big stone slabs. A lot of dust was raised, covering the figure of Ito Sei who was beside Bai Rui.
Sei Itō took advantage of this opportunity to turn his palm and hold his longsword upside down. He stepped back and formed a seal with his hands. Then, a high-speed, blazing flame instantly rose in front of Sei Itō and burned toward Bai Rui, who had turned his head to bite him.
This was a spell that Sei Itō had stolen from the Kanshan Clan, the Guardian Deity's Wrath Flame.
"Roar!" Bai Rui let out a fierce roar of pain when it was burned by the flames. Its expression became even more ferocious as it twisted and rolled, stirring up the chains around its body and creating a violent rattle.
