Before the horde of evil spirits that surged forward like a tide, only scattered humans, relying on the faint light created by torches, desperately tried to block the invasion of the monsters.

But such resistance is like a moth drawn to a flame, a futile struggle before death, unable to change the outcome!

The sky curtain has been sealed off.

Without the sun's rays, this land is filled with yin energy, making it the perfect nourishment for ghosts and monsters!

"Clack, clack."

Strange sounds of bones rubbing could be heard from time to time.

Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see a Itsukushima samurai dressed in armor.

His shattered armor and horrifyingly empty chest clearly indicated that he had perished in the resistance.

But at this moment, the samurai, who should have been dead, stood up strangely, staggering like a baby learning to walk.

Moreover, just as he was gradually able to stabilize his broken body, a chilling crimson suddenly burst forth from his eye sockets, and a terrifying roar, a grotesque, undead voice, erupted from his throat.

During this time, nearby human resistance fighters cried out in anguish, but the Itsukushima samurai who had 'come back from the dead' showed no reaction. Instead, he followed the surrounding demons toward the humans and charged toward the only altar that was faintly lit!

Among this army of monsters, one can easily spot human warriors like these.

A human warrior transformed into a demon by the power of the demon.

After passing through the seemingly endless tide of monsters, they finally found a huge eye faintly visible in the dark sky.

It is like an eerie sun and moon hanging in the sky, watching over everything on this land.

It is also the instigator that turned this land into a desolate wasteland, Nightshade Soul.

"It's a really unpleasant atmosphere."

"Xiaobai hates the owner of that aura."

Just as Huang was examining this land, a similarly solemn sigh erupted.

Still somewhat dazed, the young man looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white creature following at his feet.

However, because it was relatively small and the area was completely shrouded in darkness, it did not immediately demonstrate a strong presence.

"Huh?"

Do puppies also feel annoyed by the scent of other creatures?

Huang always had a teasing attitude towards this little guy who hadn't fully formed a contract.

Sure enough, upon hearing that extremely sensitive adjective, Hakuzosu instantly became agitated.

"Little White is a fox, not a puppy!"

"Lord Ara, you're so annoying!!"

It angrily complained.

However, it was clear that such accusations were completely useless. Huang had no intention of responding to the topic and instead changed the subject.

"You should have understood before you came, this is the first place to fulfill the agreement."

He gazed into the distance at the evil, demonic eyes hidden behind the curtain, and spoke solemnly.

It would be absolutely impossible not to feel a sense of oppression when faced with this torrent of ghosts that almost completely covered the earth's surface.

“Eh,”

"Xiaobai knows."

“I will never tolerate such evil creatures, even if you don’t ask me to.”

Sensing the solemn attitude of his temporary master, Hakuzosu's mood also became heavy.

There are differences between different kinds of monsters.

Just like the shadows of Lord Seimei, Lord Ara, and the Genji clan,

There is a distinction between evil and relative justice.

And now, it represents relative justice.

This is also to cleanse myself of the 499 sins I have committed, so that I can return to Lord Seimei's embrace as a better version of myself in the future.

"Huh? Then it's a deal."

"That doesn't count as my request."

However, just as Bai Zangzhu had mustered 100% of his resolve to carry out his mission and fight those evil spirits to the death, the voice that reached his ears immediately diminished his resolute attitude by more than half.

"?"

Xiao Bai thought he had never seen such a shameless bastard, who actually dared to exploit his shikigami in this way under the guise of a powerful Onmyoji!

"Can't!"

"We made a promise back then, three times, only three times!"

"As an Onmyoji, as the leader of your clan, you cannot break your promise!!"

It made a righteous and accusatory statement, its voice filled with anxiety and grievance.

Because if the other party really doesn't intend to let it go, then there's really nothing I can do.

After all, he did see it.

Even the former Wind God has formed a contract with him, and according to the other party, there are even more powerful demons who have formed contracts with this liar!

"well."

"My people are in your care, little dog."

As they were talking, Huang descended the stone steps, and on the way, he brushed past a woman riding a large wolf up the steps.

It is worth mentioning that no trace of human life could be detected in this woman with her hair in two braids.

"Are you alright, Yin?"

"Who is that person?"

Upon arriving at the altar, Ritsu suddenly leaped off the wolf and anxiously looked at his sister, whose thoughts were still somewhat scrambled.

She had naturally seen the young man she had just brushed past, but given the urgency of the situation, she had no time to ask him anything.

"I, I don't know."

"But he said he would save the island."

Yin answered subconsciously.

And when the purpose of her visit was mentioned, her slightly vacant eyes gradually brightened.

However, this answer did not make Lu happy; instead, the solemnity on his face grew even more pronounced.

"Wake up, wake up, Yin!"

"There is no outsider in this world who can save us, and even the gods have stopped responding to us."

"The only one who can save Itsukushima is you, the tuner!"

"Furthermore, what you want is not to continue playing the music that summons the daylight, but to change the laws of the stars and reconstruct the calendar of this world."

"Only in this way can the sun return."

"Only Itsukushima can be saved."

The woman's words made Yin turn her gaze away from the unfamiliar figure.

She knew her sister was right. They had prayed to the gods for decades without getting a response. Could this strange young man suddenly appear and bring hope to this land?

That's too far-fetched, isn't it?

"Using music to summon daylight, to let the sun return to this land, and to expel the filth, is what the Itsukushima predecessors have been doing for thousands of years."

"Don't be afraid, I will help you, with my soul as the guide."

As Yin's gaze and will returned, a gentle expression slowly appeared on Ritsu's face.

As she finished speaking, she raised her hand and gently stroked the girl's cheek before grasping the jade pendant hanging from her chest.

This is where its soul is collected on this dark land.

Crush it, and your soul will be scattered.

Chapter 714 Expedition: Charge into the Darkness!

"Sister Lu!"

The voice, awakened from shattered hopes, was still a beat slower in its thoughts.

By the time she truly understood what she should do, her sister had already placed her hand on the dark green jade pendant on her chest.

In an instant, the girl's eyes filled with sorrow, and her outburst was trembling with sobs.

But at this moment,

"Ahem, two beautiful human ladies."

"Although Xiaobai really didn't want to speak up for that despicable, bastard, liar, and bad Onmyoji."

"But to be fair, Lord Uchiha Ara is indeed very strong, and he may really be able to defeat that evil monster for you."

“Even if that guy can’t do it, he and his family can definitely buy you some time.”

"Of course, Xiaobai will do his best to help."

The sudden sound not only slowed Ling Lu's movements, but Yin also took the opportunity to quickly grab her sister's wrist to prevent her from exerting force.

Then, the two followed the sound and saw the white creature still resting on the altar.

With its four short legs, gently wagging tail, and fluffy fur, it looks just like a puppy.

"Oh, right, Little White is a fox, a fox, a fox, not a puppy!"

The moment their eyes met, Hakuzosu immediately and urgently declared his identity, fearing that he would be mistaken for someone else's race again.

"Onmyoji?"

Hearing Xiaobai's complicated yet surprisingly firm introduction, Lü, who had already lost hope in the outside world, subconsciously repeated the young man's identity.
