The next second, the seven-colored light emanating from Hina Amano suddenly became even more dazzling.
"boom."
The slight sound of the door closing sounded like melodious celestial music to Miko Yotsuya and Hina Amano at that moment.
The two took a few steps back and saw that the white door, after closing, exploded and disappeared like fireworks, leaving not a trace.
As the dark red vortex cloud burst open, turning into showers of rain, the violent tremors on the ground finally ceased.
"Won..."
Yotsuya Miko finally couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed to the ground, a look of relief on her face.
Finally...
Won.
No one, not even the brilliant Rio Futaba, could have imagined that cutting off Kyoto's power supply and cell phone signal communication was merely a supplementary measure to induce panic among the citizens of Kyoto.
The real highlight is this earthquake that just happened.
Although it took some time to close the door that had appeared out of nowhere, Yotsuya Miko and Amano Hina could tell that the magnitude of the earthquake was not high; for Sakura Province, which is prone to earthquakes, it was just a small earthquake.
The buildings in Kyoto have strict earthquake-resistant standards, making it absolutely impossible for them to collapse under this magnitude of earthquake.
There is a high probability that there will be no casualties.
..........
Later, inside another power station.
"The earthquake just happened..."
Rio Futaba and Mai Sakurajima stood not far away, and learned from the walkie-talkie that Miko Yotsuya and Hina Amano were safe and sound and were on their way.
This is the first piece of good news.
The second piece of good news, according to Soichiro Yagami, is that the emergency repairs to the power station are nearing completion, and it will be back to normal operation in less than five minutes.
When that time comes, everything will be much easier.
Rio Futaba had no intention of restoring cell phone signals in Kyoto, because defending both a power plant and a communications infrastructure at the same time would be far too difficult.
The number of evil spirits in the entire city of Kyoto is far more than tens of thousands. If you include ghosts and monsters, the number could be in the hundreds of thousands.
And what about Overload Society?
Miko Yotsuya, Rio Futaba, Mai Sakurajima, Yui Yuigahama, and Yasakani no Hitoshi. Even if we include Shoko Makinohara and Menma, who are just a burden, there are only seven.
Given such a vast disparity in numbers, simply being able to hold onto one power station and prevent Kyoto from plunging into absolute darkness tonight is already the limit.
To further divert resources to restore signal communications would be tantamount to suicide.
But the most important issue now is not in the real world.
With the entire city of Kyoto without power and cell phone signals cut off, this earthquake suddenly occurred. Even if the magnitude itself was not enough to cause much damage, how can we calculate the panic it caused to people?
In the real world, if the opponent doesn't have any more tricks up their sleeve, Xyz Society has already won.
But...
The most important person hasn't come back yet...
..........
Meanwhile, within the Inner World.
"boom!!!"
Feeling the earth-shaking tremor, before Tamamo-no-Mae could react, Yoru-hoshi, who had been lying on her lap with her eyes closed, opened her eyes.
"It finally begins."
The next second, Tamamo-no-Mae felt a blur before her eyes and found herself in an open space outside an abandoned building.
At this moment, however, she had no time to be shocked by how fast Ye Xing was.
Because the scene that appeared before Tamamo-no-Mae's eyes was something she had never seen since her birth in the Otherworld.
The hard ground burst forth with deep, abyss-like cracks.
The gaps that should have exposed the steel bars were instead radiating intense heat, with something flowing like magma.
The ground shook so violently that it seemed as if it were about to shake down the sky of the other world.
The moon in the sky had turned completely blood red, and the surrounding black mist was becoming increasingly thick, as if one were in the dark sea.
"This...this is..."
Even with Tamamo-no-Mae's composure, she was immediately thrown into a panic upon seeing such terrifying changes occurring in the inner world.
Ye Xing remained calm, his figure steady even while standing on the swaying ground, and said with interest.
"I see...it was an earthquake..."
"earthquake?"
Upon hearing Ye Xing's words, Tamamo-no-Mae wore an expression of disbelief.
"I have never heard of such an earthquake before..."
"You still don't understand."
Night Star pointed to the dark red lava flowing in the crack and chuckled.
"Do you think there's anything like this beneath the surface of Kyoto? This earthquake and these cracks are just reflections of people's fears in the underworld."
Just as Ye Xing finished speaking, before Tamamo-no-Mae could reply, a series of heavy, muffled sounds came from the black mist behind them.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
The ground, which had stopped shaking, would tremble again every time this sound came.
What horrified Tamamo-no-Mae was the voice...
It sounds like footsteps, and they're getting closer and closer.
"Ye...Ye Xingjun..."
Amidst Tamamo-no-Mae's trembling, terrified gaze, a dark purple hand emerged from the black mist, grasping the four evil spirits—tiny as insects compared to its size—that were pinned to the ground by Yoru-no-Shita, and dragging them into the black mist.
Then, a very distinct chewing sound came from within the thick black mist.
A few seconds later, accompanied by the screams of the four evil spirits, the black mist returned to a deathly silence.
Fine beads of sweat had already seeped onto Tamamo-no-Mae's fair forehead.
What exactly is hidden within the black mist...?
In the midst of this deathly silence, where you could hear a pin drop, Tamamo-no-Mae suddenly heard the familiar sound of a suona.
"Beep beep beep~~~"
Tamamo-no-Mae turned her head and was completely dumbfounded by the scene before her.
Ye Xing was holding a black suona and playing a suona tune that sounded exhilarating.
The pale and pitch-black headless half-bodied monster stood behind him, its massive body still swaying to the music.
It's shaking?
At that moment, the fear in Tamamo-no-Mae's heart was completely washed away.
She even had a very strange feeling, as if the black mist behind her and the monsters hidden in it had completely disappeared.
The other world has turned into a disco, and it's a suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument) performance.
A few dozen seconds later, the song ended.
"How is it, Xiaoyu?"
Ye Xing smiled, looking as if he hadn't had enough.
"It's just that there's not enough time right now, so I can only offer you this piece, Crimson Bow and Arrow. Next time I have another chance, I'll play the entire Attack on Titan theme song for you from beginning to end."
Tamamo Mae: "......"
She opened her lips, but couldn't utter a single word.
This is really impossible to evaluate...
No.
What are your quirks?
Would a normal person, after witnessing that scene, suddenly become excited and start playing the suona?
The most outrageous thing is that the thing hidden in the black mist, for some unknown reason, actually let Night Star play the entire piece.
What do you mean? You also like listening to suona music?
The fear and trembling in Tamamo-no-Mae's heart just moments before vanished without a trace after listening to the suona version of Crimson Arrow.
She even felt...
It feels like I've been ignited?
"it's a pity."
Ye Xing glanced at the black and white headless monster behind him, looking at it with a disappointed expression.
"You, as my true soul form, are unfortunately missing such an important part as a mouth. Otherwise, you could provide background music for me during battles, wouldn't that be great?"
Immediately after saying this, the smile on Ye Xing's face vanished abruptly. He looked towards the direction from which the giant hand had just been extended in the black mist, raised his right hand, and softly murmured.
"Looks like we need to be more serious this time."
"Gather here, Unlimited Blade Works."
The 224 realm unfolds, a divine exorcist vanquishes demons, a professional exorcist who refuses to use knives.
As Ye Xing finished speaking, Tamamo-no-Mae saw thousands of pitch-black weapons formed from the power of evil spirits appear simultaneously in the sky, illuminated by the blood-red moon.
Chains, longswords, long knives, katanas, hammers, fans, spears...
Almost every kind of weapon exists in this so-called Unlimited Blade Works.
