"Master, I'm sorry!"
Chiba Yoshiko, who had regained her senses, knelt on the ground with a thud, "I almost made a huge mistake. I'm willing to accept any punishment, master!"
Although her body was controlled by Hidemoto Chiho's split soul earlier, her consciousness was still there. One could say that she had witnessed the entire battle between Ye Chen and Hidemoto Chiho.
If Ye Chen had not unleashed the Golden Pupil Flame at the critical moment, he might have fallen into Hidemoto Chiho's trap.
That was why Chiba Yoshiko was so fearful.
However, she was more shocked. Hidemoto Chiho, the master of the Hidemoto clan, was defeated by Ye Chen. Even her split soul was destroyed.
Although Hidemoto Chiho did not come with her real body, it proved that Ye Chen's ability had exceeded her imagination again.
Especially at the critical moment, the two golden pillars of light that shot out of Ye Chen's eyes shocked Chiba Yoshiko.
"Don't act recklessly without my permission next time!"
Ye Chen shook his head lightly and walked at the front. His target was the Hidemoto clan on Omakiyama.
Through the battle earlier, he had a general understanding of the Japanese's so-called Yin Yang Master techniques. Compared to the Chinese Dao techniques, the Japanese should be called evil techniques. Their techniques were extremely strange.
If he did not have cultivation experience and his Divine Consciousness, he would have been at a disadvantage in the battle earlier.
…
Not long after they left, a man and a woman rushed over with a gust of wind. The two of them looked around carefully with bewildered expressions.
Luo Yao frowned slightly and said, "That's strange. The two pillars of light clearly appeared here, so why isn't there any trace of them?"
Tang Jianfeng did not say a word. Instead, he squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil under his feet. He pinched it with his hand and sniffed it. He shook his head and said, "There's a faint trace of yin energy in the soil."
"You can even smell that?"
Luo Yao's eyes lit up immediately. She looked at him as if he was a monster and clicked her tongue in wonder, "Xiaofeng, is your nose a dog's? Or are you hiding your ultimate technique behind my back? "
Tang Jianfeng could not be bothered with her. Instead, he looked around and his eyes flickered, "The two golden pillars of light that were similar to divinities belong to the righteousness method. They shouldn't have any yin energy. Could it be that two powerhouses fought here before we arrived?"
"Yes, that must be it!"
He nodded with certainty and stood up. "From the looks of it, it's clearly a battle between righteous and evil. The senior who cast the golden pillar of light must have won."
"You sniffed it out again?" Luo Yao was surprised.
Tang Jianfeng looked at her helplessly. "Of course I thought of it with my brain. I say, Luo Shuiyao, can you be more serious? You're always acting like a madman. Can't you take out the restraint you had on the cruise?"
"I told you to call me Luo Yao outside. Don't call me Luo Shuiyao. Otherwise, I'll fight you to the death!" Luo Yao bared her fangs and brandished her claws.
After fooling around for a while, Tang Jianfeng took one last look at the scene, "It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see that senior's voice and appearance. I wonder if such a powerhouse is Chinese or Japanese!"
…
Over half an hour later, Ye Chen led Chiba Yoshiko to the entrance of Omakiyama. As far as the eye could see, there were lush trees on the mountain. From time to time, tourists would enter in an orderly manner with incense and candles in their hands. It was very peaceful.
"Master, this is Omakiyama!"
Chiba Yoshiko stopped in her tracks and introduced, "It's said that this wasn't a tourist attraction, but an ancient battlefield and mass grave. It's said that many people were buried here a hundred years ago."
"Ancient battlefield, mass grave?" Ye Chen could not help but look at her.
She nodded and said, "It was vacant for a long time, and everyone thought it was unlucky. Later on, the Hidemoto clan applied to the higher-ups to choose this place as a dojo and built a shrine. Gradually, there were more people here."
After saying that, she took a step forward.
However, just as she was about to put her foot down, she felt her vision turn black. Then, she saw that the spacious stone steps beneath her feet were shrouded in thick black energy.
Rotting, pus oozing out of the hands kept waving in the black gas, as if the evil spirits of hell were desperately trying to grab something and take the opportunity to escape.
On the contrary, the rest did not react at all.
Chiba Yoshiko screamed and retreated immediately. She looked at Ye Chen in fear, "Master …"
"It's just an illusion. It's nothing!"
Ye Chen smiled lightly and took the lead to walk over. He ignored the rotting hands that were oozing with pus. Chiba Yoshiko clenched her teeth and followed him immediately.
"Looks like Hidemoto Chiho is trying to stop me from going deeper!"
Ye Chen thought to himself as he walked, "However, I can't figure it out. Since she wants to stop me, why did she only create an illusion? Does she really think that a mere illusion can scare me? "
He still could not figure it out even after he finished walking the stone steps. Apart from the illusion, there was nothing special about the entire process.
The first thing he saw was an unusually solemn and ancient building that stood at the peak of the mountain. It was probably the shrine that the Hidemoto clan had built.
In the eyes of the Japanese, the so-called shrine was a house that worshipped and sacrificed the various gods in the Shinto Sect. It was similar to the temples and dojos in the East.
Countless believers slowly walked into the shrine with incense and candles in their hands.
In Chiba Yoshiko's eyes, everything had changed. It was clearly broad daylight, but the shrine before her was blurry. It was as if she was in a ball of black fog.
In the center of the shrine, there was a statue of a giant toad. The toad was facing the entrance as if it was opening its mouth.
Before the believers who were lining up to approach the shrine passed by the statue, traces of red air would be sucked into the statue's mouth.
Anyone who walked past the statue would have a terrible expression on their faces, but it could not be seen with the naked eye.
"Master, w-why don't we go back? This place is t-too scary!" Chiba Yoshiko was so scared that her legs went limp.
Ye Chen saw everything and was secretly surprised, "Collecting the essence energy of the believers? A barbarian country actually knows how to refine energy into energy?"
At that moment, the door of the shrine slowly opened. Subsequently, three pale-faced old men in black hunting clothes slowly walked over.
The leading old man held a tray in his hand. There was something covered with a red cloth on the tray. What was strange was that when the three old men passed by some believers, they brushed past them as if they did not see them.
Chiba Yoshiko's pretty face changed when she saw the three of them walking toward her. She could not help but move closer to Ye Chen by instinct. She was secretly nervous.
"Greetings, powerhouses from China!"
The three of them stopped when they arrived beside Ye Chen. They bowed to him at the same time. There was no hostility on their faces at all.
Before Ye Chen could speak, the leading old man said slowly, "Respected powerhouse from China, I think there's a misunderstanding between you and my Hidemoto family, so we've specially prepared this gift for you!"
After saying that, he slowly untied the red cloth on the tray.
Chiba Yoshiko screamed in fear when she saw it.
All he saw was a bloody human head on top of the tray!
The head's eyes were wide open, as if it had died with a grievance.
Its eyes were filled with blood!
