Someone at Soul Society should know what was going on. At the very least, Yui definitely knew. Otherwise, she wouldn't have sent that message.
The problem was going to Soul Society … or more accurately, to the location that Summer Night knew where Soul Society was located, would he be able to obtain the information he wanted?
Seiji didn't see a single conscious person while he was saving his companions. Not only ordinary people, even ordinary Spiritual Ability users and Awakened wouldn't be able to survive the pressure of the giant cherry blossom spiritual tree. Seiji had no idea what the current situation was like at Soul Society's location. He didn't know if there were any survivors, and if so, if there were any, whether or not they possessed any information.
Although he didn't know for sure, this was the best place he could think of to go.
Seiji made his decision. However, at this moment, he suddenly heard a voice …
"Help me …"
It was Shirasakura!
The goddess was asking for help. What had happened to her?
While Seiji was wondering about this, Chiaki suddenly went into a daze. She felt as if she was connected to something mystically. She then received a message from a god.
"Seiji … Shirasakura is in danger!" she immediately said.
Everyone looked at her in astonishment.
"You heard her asking for help as well?" Seiji inquired.
"You heard it as well?" Chiaki countered with a question.
"Yeah, I heard her asking for help, but that's all … Do you know more about this?"
Chiaki nodded.
"It's the same as the last trial. I suddenly remembered … no, I suddenly learned about the situation.
A snake that's even more threatening than the last trial is approaching her. There's also an even more powerful enemy approaching her. That's why she's in great danger right now! "
An even more powerful snake than the last trial, as well as an even more powerful enemy … Seiji had a serious expression when he heard this.
He had to help her. First, this was a contract. Second, he couldn't lose this god's help right now.
The enemy was incredibly powerful. It was highly likely that the enemy was a high-ranked member of the Messengers! He needed to mentally prepare himself.
"Since she specifically told you about the situation, it should be the same as the last trial. She wants you to cast a spell to bring us there, right?"
"Yes."
"Let's go, then. We must help her." Seiji then looked at everyone else. "Everyone heard it. The enemy this time is even more powerful than the last trial. It might be a high-ranked member of the Messengers. We must fight cautiously!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Everyone then entered the dojo and sat down in front of the Spirit Image.
Compared to the previous trial, there was one more combatant this time: Mai.
Seeing that everyone was seated, Chiaki sang a beautiful and sacred song and began to dance.
Cherry blossoms bloomed, petals drifted down, witches danced, hymns sang …
The three figures on the Spirit Image turned into many blurry figures. An icy cold white mist poured out, attracting everyone's attention. They soon entered the mist.
…
Heikai Takagi … no, he was no longer Heikai Takagi.
Who was he? Or rather, it had no idea what it was now.
Just thinking about this problem gave it a headache … It was as if there was hot water boiling in its head, gurgling painfully and irritating. It was so uncomfortable that it wanted to go crazy!
Perhaps he had already gone mad.
It was only because of the powerful restraints that it was barely able to maintain its consciousness.
The binding came from the man standing on its head … one of its heads.
The long-haired man, who wore a white coat and black trousers, and gold-rimmed glasses, called it "Snake Nine".
Rather than having an unbearable headache trying to figure out who he was, it felt more comfortable to accept this title.
And so, he became "Snake Nine".
Snake Nine's current appearance was that of a giant snake monster with seven heads. He was currently engaged in a fierce battle against a similarly giant black-armored Samurai Demon!
The Samurai Demon continuously swung its giant longsword. Each attack contained tremendous power and created powerful shockwaves that dealt severe damage to the snake monster. Some of the snake monster's heads were even chopped off.
Snake Nine's damage against the Samurai Demon was limited. Some of its attacks were even dodged, making it seem rather pitiful.
However, with its incredibly powerful regenerative abilities, it was able to continue fighting. Even if all of its heads were chopped off, it would only need a few seconds to regenerate all its heads!
The Samurai Demon was powerful and had powerful swordsmanship. However, as the damage accumulated, its body began to show signs of collapsing. Its movements gradually slowed down.
Finally, Snake Nine used all of its heads to bite down on various parts of the Samurai Demon and viciously tore it to pieces!
This was a hard-fought victory. Snake Nine lost several dozen of its heads for this.
However, the white-coat man yawned, seeming to be quite bored.
"Too slow." He stepped on Snake Nine's head.
Snake Nine's head roared angrily, but it was unable to resist at all.
"You should have finished it off in 69 seconds, but you spent 437 seconds instead. That's 5.3 times faster than I expected," the white-coat man told him. "This battle efficiency is far lower than I expected. Although I didn't have much hope for you to begin with, this performance is far too unsightly. "
"Hahaha!!!" All of Snake Nine's heads roared angrily.
"So noisy. Shut up." The white-coat man forcefully stomped on Snake Nine's head.
Snake Nine's giant body instantly trembled, and all of its heads shut their mouths.
"Continue onwards," the white-coat man ordered.
The silent Snake Nine continued onwards, entering the thick white mist.
Not long after, they saw a red torii.
This torii seemed quite small compared to the giant Snake Nine. It seemed that Snake Nine wouldn't be able to pass through it in its current state.
The white-coat man ordered, "Destroy it."
One of Snake Nine's heads hung down and bit down on the torii, forcefully tearing it apart.
Mist swirled around the torii, increasing the chill. However, it was unable to stop the Snake Nine. The torii gradually began to shake, slowly turning a dark gray color as if it had been contaminated by snake venom.
After most of the torii changed color, the Snake Nine's head pulled the torii into the air and viciously bit it to pieces!
Suddenly, a muffled thunderous sound rang out. Mist surged and petals fluttered in the air.
A few seconds later, a shrine appeared from the fog.
A group of people stood in front of the shrine.
They all had different figures and clothing, but all of them wore white masks with beautiful cherry blossoms on them.
Something flashed in the white-coat man's eyes when he saw this group of people. He had an expression of interest.
"Snake Nine, do you remember anything after seeing these people?"
He was answered by a series of muffled hissing sounds.
"How useless. But fine, I'll ask them directly. "
The white-coat man ordered the Snake Nine to approach.
Summer Night and the others all prepared for battle as they watched the giant seven-headed Snake Nine approach!
"Don't attack yet," Seiji spoke in a heavy tone as he opened his folding fan. The words "Immovable Mountain" were written on the fan.
He then walked towards the Snake Nine by himself and shouted, "This is a holy land. Trespassers, please leave immediately!"
When the white-coat man heard this, he stomped on the ground to have the Snake Nine stop.
"May I ask who you are?" he asked with interest.
"We are the guardians of a holy land! Trespasser, who are you? "Seiji looked directly at the white-coat man.
Seiji could tell that the white-coat man didn't intend to immediately fight, so he decided to have a chat first. At the very least, it would be good to obtain some information.
The white-coat man narrowed his eyes as his mouth arced upwards.
"I'm Yakushi."
Yakushi?
When Seiji heard this name and looked at the seven-headed Snake Nine, he instantly thought of the famous manga characters from his previous world.
Was it Yakushi and Orochi!?
