Especially the madness the opponent displayed when facing the Onmyoji, and the invisible killing aura surrounding him, were a thousand times more terrifying than he had been before!
The sudden interruption made Kidomaru instinctively look towards the source of the sound.
But just one glance was enough to make the little squirrel shrink back behind the mountain wind.
"Thank you, thank you."
"But if you could be a little gentler in your eyes, like Komatsumaru, that would be great."
At the same time, this clever little guy didn't forget to offer suggestions.
The physical sensations so different from those at Kamo Academy caused the gaze of that evil spirit to shift silently.
At that time, as a half-demon, apart from Seimei and his teacher Tadakyu, no one gave him a kind look. In fact, they even wanted to exorcise him as a monster.
The brief standoff made the footsteps beside him seem increasingly distant and faint; that damned Onmyoji had no intention of waiting for him at all.
The two little monsters of Seven Horns Mountain will stay here to rest with the mountain wind, and will not go any further.
"I won't be grateful."
His eyes swept over the girl who was still holding her little hands high, clutching the feather, and Kidomaru still chose to take the so-called guardian item.
However, the words he uttered and his cold tone clearly defined the line between the two.
He was a born demon, a demon destined to only be accompanied by slaughter, needing no companions, much less the same emotions as other living beings!
"Yes,"
May you all have great military fortune.
The former's indifference did not cause Xun any discomfort. On the contrary, she felt a strange sense of relief after the other party accepted the return gift from her, and a faint smile appeared on her delicate face.
This response made Kidomaru very uncomfortable, so after grabbing the owl feather, he immediately turned around and chased after the Onmyoji who was almost disappearing from sight.
At the same time, Komatsumaru peeked out from behind Yamakaze again, raising his hand to his mouth in a megaphone shape:
"Go for it, Demon Lord!"
Her voice followed her all the way.
.........
By the time Ara arrived at Ichimokuren's side, a whole day had passed.
This was not only because the forest they were in was very vast, but more importantly because a large number of monsters were surging in from the depths of the forest like a tide.
He did not choose to avoid it.
Instead, they used the flames of Amaterasu in conjunction with Kidomaru to sweep through the enemy lines.
In this way, the dangers they encounter from the mountain winds and smoke will naturally be much smaller.
"Lord Ara, the young deer went to a deeper part of the forest alone half a day ago."
"My strength is no longer enough to protect him as he continues on his journey."
Ichimokuren said, his eyes filled with guilt.
In fact, he has already done more than enough.
Along the way, they not only acted as guardians of the monsters of Seven Horns Mountain, but also constantly repaired the damaged barrier of the forest to stop the speed of the monsters' invasion, and the enormous consumption of their energy was self-evident.
Under these circumstances, he also protected the little deer man as he reached the depths of the forest, even deeper than the Lord of the Forest, the Mountain Wind.
The name of the Wind God is truly worthy of his reputation!
"Okay, I understand. Leave the rest to me."
"I will bring him back safe and sound, and I will also clean up the filth here."
After expelling some of the demonic energy accumulated in the former's body, Huang prepared to set off again.
Thanks to the fact that they all use wind talismans to control the wind as their fighting style, although they have reached deeper into the forest, they are less affected by the monsters than Yamakaze and Kidomaru.
The latter, in particular, after knowing that he was destined to be left behind halfway, killed hundreds of monsters along the way, and the demonic energy accumulated in his body had reached an extremely dangerous critical point!
After responding to Ichimokuren, Ara looked at Kidomaru, who was sitting far away.
At this moment, his effeminate face appeared somewhat distorted, and the thick veins on his arms, which were tightly gripping the chains, were visible, as if he was trying to restrain something.
Upon feeling the gaze upon him, he immediately sneered at his Onmyoji:
"You don't need to look at me. I remember what I promised."
"It's not enough to erode my will!"
After receiving a response from Kidomaru, Ara finally felt a little relieved.
He was genuinely afraid that this crazy kid would recklessly charge straight into the depths of the forest.
However, just to be on the safe side, he still asked Ichimokuren for help:
"Then I'll trouble you to look after that kid as well."
"However, if he really doesn't listen, just leave him here and ignore him. If he can't go to the festival at the Enmusubi Shrine in a few days, it's his own loss."
Huang deliberately spoke very loudly so that a certain troublemaker who was far away could hear him.
"Yes, I will take care of him, Lord Ara."
"After all, that child has gained the approval of both Kaoru and the Goddess of Fate."
Ichimokuren responded earnestly.
"Well, that's troublesome."
Huang nodded, and before leaving, he made a point of speaking, seemingly casually, towards the location of the evil spirit:
"You brat, Ichimokuren was once the wind god of Takamagahara. He recognized the god of marriage a long time ago. After I leave, you better behave yourself."
Upon hearing this, Kidomaru, who was suppressing his demonic aura, did not show any excessive anger, and his gaze toward Ichimokuren underwent a subtle change.
I've known that idiot for a long time, which means he knows some things about his past...
Continuing onward, they didn't encounter any large-scale monsters. Instead, the area was lush with greenery, and the surrounding environment became much quieter.
This strange phenomenon made Huang wonder if he had fallen into some kind of natural illusion, or stepped into a special teleportation array and been unknowingly transported back to the edge of the forest.
However, this is only a temporary speculation.
Illusions or teleportation fluctuations that can simultaneously conceal two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan are unlikely to exist in this dimension.
However, the most crucial problem is that they have lost track of the Deer Man.
That guy probably encountered some special event on his journey, causing his tracks to suddenly disappear halfway through.
However, Ara wasn't too worried about Deer Boy's situation.
After all, Yu Zhi still had the token given to him by his friends from Qijiao Mountain, and that person was by his side.
"Huang, come and see quickly."
Just as he was lost in thought, he heard the call of the spring.
Without hesitation, Huang quickly walked to his lover's side and looked in the direction she pointed. There, deep in the tranquil forest, appeared a small 'island' surrounded by a stream.
In the center of the empty 'island' stands a giant deer statue.
"arrive."
"The heart of the former forest."
"The remains of the life of the Deer People".
Upon seeing the stone statue, Huang muttered to himself.
No wonder the desolation and chaos along the way gave way to the tenacious growth of green plants here, and the surroundings became quiet and peaceful. It wasn't because they had been transported back to the edge of the forest, but because they had arrived at the heart of the forest, the place where the souls of the deer-men slumbered!
The breath of the soul rests in the trees; may the forest remember everything.
It is the departed souls of that clan that are protecting and nourishing this place!
However, this power has become extremely weak under the erosion of demonic energy, the best proof of which is that the surrounding vegetation has also shown signs of withering and yellowing.
However, the Deer Man was not found around the statue.
Perhaps he hasn't arrived yet, or perhaps he has already left.
"Let's go over and take a look."
With that, Huang leaped down.
The cliff at our feet is not high, only a few dozen meters above the ground. It was probably caused by the floods brought by heavy rains after the trees were all cut down.
After crossing the decaying wooden bridge, they stood before the statue of the giant deer.
The lifelike stone statue has some distinct cracks, and the vermilion torii gate has not only faded most of its color but has also tilted to one side.
Large swaths of green moss covered this tranquil ruin, while also bringing back the message of the deer boy to the wasteland.
The four kick marks on the ground clearly indicate that the other party had been here.
The lingering traces of his soul in the space signify that he took away the blessings and will of his people.
After lightly touching the enormous stone statue in front of him, Huang began to silently form hand seals.
Amidst the surging magical power, pink butterflies quietly appeared and fluttered down onto the cracked giant deer statue.
【Spirit Communication - The Dark Butterfly!】
Through the power of Yin and Yang, he could sense the deep resentment hidden within the statue worshipped by the deer-people.
It's like there's something I haven't fully expressed.
Just as the last Nether Butterfly landed on it, the Giant Deer Statue began to emit a blue-green color like the aurora borealis, the surrounding trees swayed slightly, and some special light and shadow quietly appeared on the entire 'island'.
Chapter 772 The forest remained silent, yet it watched over everything in secret.
"Humanity?"
The clear call seemed to fall from the sky, vast and distant.
"Yes."
Huang responded softly to the giant deer statue in front of him, while the corner of his eye was drawn to the obscure energy surging around him.
