"Go and find the hidden samurai!"
In the forest, a two-meter-tall evil spirit with only one eye on its forehead roared and opened its bloody mouth. Blue will-o '-the-wisps floated out and spread in all directions.
"Poof!"
Suddenly, a blue will-o '-the-wisps collided with the void and extinguished.
"Here!"
The evil spirit roared loudly. Numerous wisps of will-o '-the-wisps gathered and turned into raindrops, hitting the light screen that appeared in the void.
A small campsite vaguely appeared in the eyes of the Hundred Ghosts.
"Kill them all, don't leave a single one alive!"
In the void, in the forest, a large number of evil spirits, including a snake-like spirit body, surged forward like a wave and pounced on the barrier.
"Whoosh!"
The tree branches on the ground immediately burst into flames. The three-leafed branch that represented the barrier was destroyed, and the powerful force tore the barrier apart in an instant.
"Hehe … hehe …"
A evil spirit rushed to the camp and opened the tent, but was immediately stunned. "No samurai …"
"Boom!"
In an instant, a bright flame shot into the sky from the fake camp, accompanied by the evil spirit's roar.
"Very good! The prey has fallen into the trap! "
Watching the wisps of black aura dissipate, Wu Ming patted Ito Keisuke's shoulder. "I'll leave the cleanup of the battlefield to you …"
"I'll definitely work hard!"
A fire barrier instantly opened. Ito Keisuke looked at the wisps of black aura that escaped, but a bitter smile appeared on his face. "This time, I'll have to risk my life!"
But he did not say much, because he knew that Wu Ming had an even more difficult task to complete.
…
"Shutendoji?"
Wu Ming strolled in the forest, and according to the Heavenly Eye, he came to an empty space.
On a rock in front of him stood a handsome monk, wearing a monk's robe and holding prayer beads in his hand.
"A powerful samurai … Do you also want to be my enemy?"
As Shutendoji spoke softly, wisps of black demonic aura filled the surroundings, bringing with it a terrifying spiritual pressure.
But Wu Ming's expression suddenly relaxed.
Although the other party's demonic power was amazing and worthy of being called the King of Evil Spirits, it was a pity that under the Heavenly Eye, he still revealed his true strength.
"White Red Inner Luck, Pinnacle Level Two? It seems that at its peak, it was indeed a level-three monster!
Wu Ming narrowed his eyes and unsheathed his katana, making his stance clear.
"If that's the case …"
Shutendoji sighed. All of a sudden, he seemed to have transformed into a whirlwind, rushing over.
Bang!
The huge ghostly claw slapped the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
"Is this your true form?"
Wu Ming stood at the side, looking at Shutendoji who had revealed his true form, but his expression did not change.
At this moment, Shutendoji had transformed from a delicate-looking monk into a three-meter-tall, burly, ferocious-looking demon with a head full of red hair. He had two horns on his head and a beast's fur wrapped around his waist. An astonishing demonic aura emanated from his body.
'What a pity … the essence of power is only this. What does it matter if I transform or not?'
Wu Ming shook his head. This Shutendoji might have been troublesome if he had not broken through, but now that he was a real person, he was not afraid at all.
Traces of the power of wind and thunder gathered on the Wind Magic Cut, and he jumped up and slashed down with his katana.
"Thunder Slash!"
Lightning flashed, and Shutendoji's roar could be heard.
Bang!
A huge ghostly arm fell to the ground, but strangely, there was no blood at the stump.
"Hehe … Your Kimi-kun is still in my hands … Onmyoji who can control Thunder … Don't you want to save your Kimi-kun?"
Shutendoji saw the Thunder on Wu Ming's sword, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes. He laughed maniacally, grabbed the arm on the ground, and pressed it on the stump.
A black light flashed, and the stump immediately recovered.
"Idiot!"
Wu Ming squinted his eyes.
What did the Kimi-kun of the Yamada family have to do with him? It would be best if he could save her, but so what if he could not save her in the end?
In a battle, the most taboo was to have misgivings, or else he would definitely lose.
"Looks like … I have to get rid of you as soon as possible …"
Wu Ming looked in the direction of Itō Keishu, and saw that the fire was gradually extinguishing, and the faint roar of a samurai could be heard.
"Get rid of me as soon as possible?"
Shutendoji suddenly took off the wine gourd on his waist and took a big gulp.
"Today, I'll let you see the power of my 'Katana Wine'!"
Rumble!
The terrifying demonic power increased again, and in an instant, his body expanded again, and he became a six-meter tall giant ghost. The wind and clouds behind him surged, and the Reiatsu pressure was terrifying to the extreme.
"Using human blood and resentment as raw materials to brew wine that can increase demonic power?"
Wu Ming smiled and let go of the Wind Magic Cut in his hand. "You're very lucky … You're the first to use the Thunder Technique after seeing me in person!"
Boom!
Destructive lightning instantly lit up in his hands, causing even the eyes of the Shutendoji opposite him to reveal a trace of horror.
…
Bang! Bang!
Itō Keishu's face was pale, and he looked at the fire barrier that had been compressed to the extreme, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
As a thirty-year-old Onmyoji, even Shichuan was in awe of his talent.
And the foundation of Onmyoji was spiritual power!
Right now, he felt that his Spiritual Energy was almost completely depleted from the onslaught of so many Demonic Ghosts.
Once the barrier was broken, he would only end up being eaten by the ghosts.
"I really don't know how that lord has such terrifying spiritual power …"
This was the last thought that came to Itō Keishu's mind as his vision darkened.
Rumble!
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard, and the remaining ghosts cried out uneasily, greatly reducing the pressure on him. "This … What's going on?"
"Edict! Summon the Thunder spell! "
Soon after, a vast and mighty voice, accompanied by terrifying lightning, swept out in an instant.
Many of the remaining black demonic ghosts did not even have the chance to scream before they turned into ashes in the white light.
"Ghost … Gui Yi Kun!"
A look of relief appeared on Itō Keishu's face, and he completely fainted.
"Hmm … It looks very tragic …"
Wu Ming rushed back and saw Toda Mitsumasa and the others, as well as the demon corpses all over the ground, and the fainted Itō Keishu. He could not help but ask, "How are the casualties?"
"Itō Onmyoji has fainted, Shota and Kenichi are fine, only Akiyama Kanbōei … has died in battle!"
Toda Mitsumasa wiped the corner of his eyes, which seemed to be a little red, and said in a heavy voice.
"This is the honor of a samurai! I believe that the mayor of Numata City will give him the treatment that meets the requirements! "
Wu Ming said in a low voice.
"Hmm! Gui Yi -sama … It's great that you appeared in time! "
Toda Mitsumasa wiped his tears, and suddenly jumped up in surprise. "You … Didn't you go to suppress Shutendoji? Could it be … "
"That's right!"
Wu Ming nodded. "I have already subdued Shutendoji. As long as we take advantage of the situation and attack the village, our mission will be considered complete!"
"That's great!"
Looking at Toda Mitsumasa's excited expression, which was close to cheering, Wu Ming also smiled.
Putting aside the other rewards, just the fact that he had single-handedly killed a hundred people, and the battle record of subduing Shutendoji would probably be enough for his name to spread throughout the entire Izumo Nation, right?
With the demand for heroes in this era, a large number of vassals would not be far away.
Of course, there were also dangers accompanying this, such as the possibility of being discovered by enemies with authority.
However, that was then and this was now. Back then, Wu Ming was only a sorcerer, and of course, he wanted to hide and protect himself. Now that he had become a Perfected Person and reached the peak of a certain period, he wanted to try to make contact with his opponents and find their flaws.
At this time, it was not a bad idea to release some news, if it could attract the other party to come over.
In any case, at most, he could prepare a Shadow Samurai. With his Heavenly Eye magical power, and the other party being a Reincarnator, it would be difficult for them to escape his eyes.
"In fact, there is a high possibility that the other party is not even in the Izumo Nation … With the size of the Fusang World and the lack of information, I'm afraid it will take a long time to determine the winner!"
This kind of battle record might be a big deal in the Izumo Nation, but if it was in the entire Fusang Continent … Wu Ming shook his head.
"Ah … I'm going to break through the checkpoint now to protect Kiji-kun!"
Toda Mitsumasa seemed to have thought of something and jumped up.
This was a problem. Otherwise, it would be quite depressing if Kiji-kun, who was originally still alive, died in the chaos of losing his leader.
"Yes, it is indeed a good opportunity before the news spreads!"
Wu Ming nodded and got up to kick Shota and Kenichi, who were trembling and could barely move. "What are you waiting for? Go and help Ito-kun up!"
These two original mountain bandits were quite lucky this time. Because they did not have much courage, they were forgotten by both sides and were lucky to survive until now.
Apart from being slightly disheveled, they actually did not suffer any injuries, which made Wu Ming a little surprised.
While these three people hurriedly set up a stretcher and collected the spoils of war, Wu Ming walked a few steps into the dense forest as if he was taking a leisurely stroll.
"Come out!"
His voice was low, but there was no response.
"If you still don't come out, I will take it as a provocation. At that time, I will kill you without mercy!"
His sharp eyes suddenly stared at one place.
The bark of the tree shook, and a shadow could no longer be maintained and emerged.
"My name is Zangzo, and I am a ninja!"
"Your name is Zangzo, are you a ninja?"
Wu Ming looked at the person's tight black pants and half of his face that was covered, which was quite in line with his impression.
"Were you sent by the Lord of Numata City?"
The other party did not have any malicious intentions, which he had long noticed. Otherwise, he would have killed him from the beginning.
"My lord ordered me to gather information!"
In the face of Wu Ming's cold murderous intent, the ninja did not hesitate and immediately revealed the truth.
