......

Between two lush, green mountains, there flows an unnamed river.

After Lin Tian and Kikyo, who was feeling a bit airsick, got off the plane, Lin Tian began to look around.

Looking at the corpses and broken trees left behind by the war everywhere, he frowned and asked Kikyo beside him.

Do you know where we are right now? Are we close to your home?

Upon hearing Lin Tian's question, Kikyo covered her mouth, looked around, and shook her head.

"Sorry, Lin Tian. This place looks familiar, but I can't quite place it right now."

"Hmm... Let's look around for any presence nearby. Let's see where we are. After you return here, you should disappear from the village where you were originally. To avoid Naraku noticing anything amiss, let's hurry back."

Hearing Kikyo's answer, Lin Tian frowned again, not because he was disappointed in her, but because the location he was visiting this time was different from the worlds of Yori and Shinobu Kocho he had visited before.

The first two times the landing point was near the key plot points. If this time it is also near, Kikyo, who has lived in her own village for many years, should be able to recognize the location immediately.

But why didn't she recognize him?

"Um..."

Kikyo nodded and said nothing more. She took Lin Tian's hand and walked downstream along the river. Although she couldn't remember exactly where they were, she had a vague image in her mind of a lake and a village downstream.

An hour later, as Kikyo had predicted, a small village appeared before them. This was because Kikyo's body was still in a spirit form.

Because of his translucent body, he was easily mistaken for a monster, so the task of gathering intelligence in the village fell to Lin Tian. He asked Kikyo to wait in a grove of trees and walked alone into the war-torn village.

Less than half an hour later, Lin Tian returned to the grove with a solemn expression. Seeing that Lin Tian looked unwell, Kikyo immediately came to his side.

"What's wrong, Lin Tian?"

Lin Tian stared at the bellflower, remaining silent for a while. He then let out a soft sigh.

"It is now the 20th year of Tensho. Fifty years have passed since your death. Kikyo, I had you recall the events of half a month ago when Naraku stole the Shikon Jewel on the plane. It seems that the method was not very reliable."

In truth, Lin Tian didn't know which period of the Warring States era Kikyo lived in. After asking an old man how far it was from Maple Village and which road to take, he didn't ask any more questions and turned to walk towards Kikyo's grove.

But when he passed by a paddy field, he heard several children playing talking about a red-clad, white-haired boy who looked like a dog, which caught his attention a few days earlier.

He immediately took out a few candies he had bought from the Demon Slayer world and lured the children to his side, asking them about the red-clad, white-haired boy.

Just as Lin Tian had imagined, the red-clad, white-haired boy described by the child who saw the figure was very similar to Inuyasha.

But this solidified Lin Tian's claim that the boy was indeed Inuyasha. The child added at the end that she had also eaten such sweet candy that day, given to her by a very beautiful older sister...

"I'm sorry, Lin Tian. I messed up. My mind was a mess on the plane. I couldn't concentrate on recalling what happened."

Upon hearing that she had arrived fifty years after her death, Kikyo knew it was because she hadn't been able to concentrate on the plane. Feeling guilty, she lowered her head and blamed herself.

"Don't feel guilty, it's not your fault. Fifty years from now, so be it. Naraku is still there, all we have to do is find him and kill him. As for Inuyasha... if you want to apologize to him now, I'll go with you."

Lin Tian stroked Kikyo's hair and comforted her.

In any case, the ultimate goal is to avenge Kikyo, and there's not much difference between avenging her fifty years ago and avenging her fifty years later.

However, there are some difficulties in resolving the Inuyasha issue.

After all, if we went back fifty years and killed Naraku beforehand, Inuyasha wouldn't have been sealed away. But now, fifty years later, at the start of the "Inuyasha storyline," he has already been sealed away for fifty years.

Because of Naraku's scheme, he was sealed away by Kikyo for fifty years. Lin Tian could sense that Kikyo's guilt towards Inuyasha had deepened at this time.

"Let's not go see him now. Let's go find Naraku."

Kikyo shook her head, her glossy, smooth hair fluttering in the wind. Her eyes, which had been filled with self-reproach, now held a resolute look.

She had heard Lin Tian's sleep-talking many times. Without Lin Tian needing to explain, she already understood that at this time, Inuyasha already had a girl who looked exactly like her by his side.

She didn't want to disturb their adventurous life until she had completed her revenge.

"Let's go then. These are the clothes and straw hat I bought from the village. They're a bit plain, but they'll cover your body."

After taking out a tattered hempen coat and a bamboo hat, Lin Tian mentally complained about the adorable Rabbit Island system.

Why do all the clothes on the island become translucent when Kikyo wears them? It's so troublesome.

"Um..."

Kikyo nodded, took the clothes and straw hat from Lin Tian, ​​and walked behind a tree to change her clothes.

Although she had already lived with Lin Tian, ​​changing clothes in broad daylight in front of him...

Kikyo can't do it...

After a rustling sound, Kikyo, dressed simply, reappeared in front of Lin Tian.

"What a nice view..."

A naturally beautiful person, even dressed in beggar's clothes, cannot diminish her breathtaking beauty...

After Kikyo changed her clothes, the two headed towards Kaede Village.

They are currently located in Miyama-cho, north of Kyoto, a town that is renowned as one of the three great thatched-roof houses in later generations. It preserves the most traditional rural landscape of the country where people live a good life and is also known as the "hometown of the soul".

But now, it's surrounded by high mountains and dense forests, with closed roads and isolated from the world. To put it nicely, it's a paradise. To put it bluntly, it's the middle of nowhere.

Kaede Village is located in Edo territory, about 300 kilometers from Miyama Town. According to the old man, it would take a month to get there.

But Lin Tian and his group are not ordinary people. If Lin Tian uses the flame jet he developed from the Flame-Flame Fruit's power, it would take him about an hour to get there.

However, Lin Tian had no intention of doing so. The two of them disguised themselves as wandering travelers and strolled along the narrow, potholed dirt road, like a couple enjoying a spring outing, stopping and starting to appreciate the surrounding scenery.

Their original plan was to return to the time before Kikyo was ambushed by Naraku and then kill him. Unfortunately, because of Kikyo, they ended up fifty years in the future.

Since their plan had failed, and neither of them knew where Naraku was hiding, they weren't in a hurry to continue their journey.

As for why she wanted to return to Kaede Village, it was mainly because Kikyo wanted to see her sister, Kaede, fifty years in the future.

After passing through a valley between two high mountains, Kikyo's attention was drawn to a battlefield where the battle had long since ended.

Lin Tian looked at Kikyo, who was frowning, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"There are quite a few wandering souls here. If they are not released from their suffering, monsters might be born."

Although she has been "dead" for fifty years, the bellflower remains unchanged. She watches as flies have taken over and made it their breeding ground.

Kikyo gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and cast a spell to purify the negative energy on the battlefield filled with resentment and curses. She would then release the resentment trapped within the corpses by hatred into a state of enlightenment.

Watching each soul find release and return to the Land of the Dead, Lin Tian couldn't help but admire Kikyo, truly deserving of her reputation as a top-tier priestess of the Warring States period. She could unleash such extraordinary magic with such ease.

"Thanks for your hard work."

After Kikyo finished performing the ritual for the deceased, Lin Tian stepped forward and took Kikyo's hand.

“In this era, there is war everywhere. If you have to perform rituals for the souls of those who died in the war in every place you go, it will exhaust you.”

"As a priestess, this is my mission. With you by my side, everything will be alright."

Kikyo smiled radiantly, like a fairy descended to earth. She showed no signs of fatigue despite expending too much spiritual energy.

Her spiritual power has now reached 500, and her physical attributes have also exceeded 200. Although casting a large-scale exorcism spell consumes a lot of spiritual power, she can quickly recover the lost spiritual power at this moment.

Seeing Kikyo's smile, Lin Tian knew that even though he felt sorry for her health, Kikyo would still do it. He shook his head slightly and said nothing more.

The two crossed the battlefield and continued along the path toward Maple Village.

"Ok?"

The two walked a few more kilometers when Kikyo suddenly stopped, her body trembling slightly. A look of pain crossed her face, but she quickly recovered. A hint of doubt flickered in her usually calm eyes, then turned into hatred.

"What's wrong? Are you tired? Let's rest for a bit."

Seeing that Kikyo suddenly seemed unwell, Lin Tian assumed that she had exhausted herself from the previous ritual and supported her body, saying with concern.

"Someone used magic to summon my soul. It must be that witch Rito you told me about."

Kikyo shook her head and left Lin Tian's embrace. She indicated that she wasn't tired, but rather that someone was trying to summon her soul. However, because her soul was now extremely powerful, the other party's spell failed.

"Damn it, that old hag actually stole your spirit bones. Kikyo, can you sense her location?"

Upon hearing Kikyo's explanation, Lin Tian's face instantly contorted with anger. He immediately asked Kikyo if she could pinpoint Ura's location. Although Lin Tian also possessed spiritual power and could unleash the Kido from the Bleach world...

YY

However, he only mastered a few basic spells from the Inuyasha world. He had no way of finding the person who cast the spell by following the residual spiritual energy after it was cast.

However, he believed that Kikyo, as the world's top priestess, must have a way.

Regarding Rito, the one who caused Kikyo, who had already been reincarnated, to reappear in a resentful form, Lin Tian's hatred for her ranked only after Naraku.

In order to make Kikyo her puppet, she actually dared to steal Kikyo's spirit bones.

This is an absolutely heinous crime and cannot be forgiven!

"Yes, I can find her. But judging from that spell... she's very far away from us, probably over two hundred kilometers."

Kikyo also harbored hatred for the priestess Rito. So when Lin Tian asked her if she could find Rito's location, Kikyo closed her eyes and focused her mind, searching for the source of the remaining spiritual energy.

"Very well! We'll go now. How dare she steal your ashes, trying to make you her puppet. Today is her death day!"

As he spoke, Lin Tian lifted Kikyo up with both hands, and a surge of fiery energy erupted from his legs.

Insect Breathing activated!

The Eight Gates Formation's Rest Gate is open!

With all the skills that could increase speed activated, Lin Tian's figure vanished from his spot in an instant and soared into the sky.

Following Kikyo's guidance, he flew at more than twice the speed of sound towards Rito's location.

At this moment, Li Tao was unaware of the impending danger. Her bulging eyes stared in disbelief at the soulless terracotta figure in the basin.

I don't understand where I went wrong. I failed to summon Kikyo's soul back from the Land of the Dead.

"This can't be... what could it be..."

Although she didn't know the reason, she understood that the ritual had failed and there was no need to continue. She bent down and stretched out her withered, ugly, mummy-like hand, preparing to take back the green treasure from the failed object before her.

But when she grasped the green leaf and pulled it outward, the leaf did not move at all, and was tightly held in her hand by the failed product.

"Ok?"
