Offer blocks to the end times

"Haha, how could that be? We're just an ordinary family now," Rikuo chuckled dryly, still stubbornly refusing to admit it. Kiyoshi Kiyotsugu was quite puzzled. "That's strange. I clearly remember seeing quite a few monsters, but why have they all disappeared?!"

Regardless of the situation here

Senju strolled slowly through the city at night. However, there were many yokai opening shops in the city at night, with Nura Clan flags hanging above them. However, the scope of their business was a bit ambiguous. Well, it could be considered 'entertainment business'. Senju thought that if those succubi opened shops here, they would definitely be a huge success.

Senju lost interest in going in to take a look at those yokai who were just disguised as humans. Their disguise skills were too poor. Although the yokai guests around her were also bad at disguise, making it obvious at a glance that they were yokai.

However, the demonic power is more active at night, making it impossible for ordinary people to see the demons. So those seemingly frightening demons walk freely on the streets without anyone noticing.

Of course, in the shadowy alleys, there are many lurking monsters waiting for humans to stray into them to collect their venom. However, after seeing several alleys with corpses, Senju was a little annoyed. Several phantoms slowly floated out from behind him. "Go, hunt down those murderous monsters!"

Several phantoms then flew into the shadows, followed by a scream that subsided. Then, Senju found himself speechless as a trace of fear wrapped around him. The power of this world is truly strange, isn't it? Bloodline and human heart?

Ultimately, aren't those monsters just manifestations of people's fears? But the fact that these manifestations can be passed down through bloodlines and then solidify into power again through people's fears is quite strange. Is this a variant of faith?

However, perhaps Senju concealed his aura too well, because there were actually a few monsters on the roadside trying to recruit him. But looking at the monsters holding flyers in front of him, Senju wanted to complain a little. Foxes and rats are really good at becoming spirits!

Ignoring the hardworking little demon, Senju strolled around slowly and came to a conclusion: there were far more demons here than he had thought, but they were also far weaker than he had imagined, although even the weakest of these demons were not something an ordinary person could handle.

“As expected, humans are still afraid of what they fear,” Thousand Hands shook his head and glanced at the few ‘hosts’ by the roadside. Their disguises were quite good, but unfortunately they were just big rats. They were whispering among themselves by the roadside and didn’t look like they were ‘working’ at all.

After listening casually for a while, Thousand Hands realized that these were also members of the Old Rat Group. They were worried about the capture of their leader and higher-ups, and were afraid that this matter would implicate them.

Unfortunately, they didn't need to worry about that anymore. Sensing the bloody resentment emanating from them, Thousand Hands waved his hand and evaporated them, then continued wandering around.

Overnight, Senju had accumulated quite a bit of fear on his body. The main concept on it was hunting monsters. Senju removed this fear, then pinched it, turning it into a monster that hunts evil monsters. As for the appearance, Senju chose the image of an ordinary middle-aged man, and the weapon was two demonic pistols.

"Go, demon hunter," Senju nodded, and the newly born demon slowly walked out. The sun was slowly rising, and as the morning sun rose, the drifting demonic energy slowly disappeared, and the demons went into hiding again.

Senju also arrived at the Nura Clan's mansion. However, the Nura Clan lived up to their name, as their schedule was the opposite of that of normal yokai. They had just woken up during the day when most yokai were lying in wait.

"Where am I?!" At the same time, the Onmyoji Yura also woke up. Lying in bed, she stared blankly at the ceiling, then slowly remembered the absurd things that happened last night. Her face flushed, and she suddenly sat up. "Damn you yokai, how dare you bewitch me!"

Then she heard a soft breathing sound beside her. Looking to the side, she realized that there were still several classmates around her. "Wake up, everyone, we have to run away!"

"Hoo hoo," the girls next to her were still fast asleep when Yura smelled a strange odor. After sniffing closely, she realized it was coming from herself. "Oh no, I drank last night! What should I do?!"

"That wretched monster!" Yura shifted the blame to someone else, but she was also curious. Her brother had told her that drinking alcohol would make her feel terrible, but she felt great right now, and her mental strength was more than twice as high as usual. Could she be the god of wine?!

Chapter 1383 Youluo Pojun

Just as she was trying out Yin-Yang magic and was surprised, there was a knock on the door. Yuki-onna Hyouri pushed the door open and came in. "Yura-kun, are you awake?"

"Ah, Oikawa-kun, sorry, wait, no, you're a yokai Yuki-onna!" Yura was initially thanking him respectfully, but as she called out, she realized something was wrong. She got up and tried to pounce on him, but tripped over the blanket and fell to the ground. "Damn yokai, how dare you tease me like this!"

“No, no, no, you tripped over it yourself,” Bingli chuckled and waved her hand, then reminded her, “Yura, I’m here to inform you of something. The Second Hokage has instructed that you must attend the Nura Clan meeting today.”

"Why should I listen to a yokai?!" Yura shouted indignantly. Hyori replied seriously, "The Second Hokage instructed that Hagoromo Gitsune is a common enemy of the Nura Clan and the Keikain Clan. As an Onmyoji of the Keikain Clan, Yura needs to know the relevant information so that the clan can make preparations."

"Hmph, then let me see what tricks this monster has up its sleeve," Yura said, looking intently at Hyorii. "In the name of the Kakaiin family..."

"Righteousness, if I discover that you have lied to me, I will absolutely destroy you."

"Well, if you can do that, hehehe," Bingli chuckled softly. "Also, Yura, when you stand up while you're talking, you look even more imposing."

"I know without you saying it, get out, you monster!" Yura suddenly looked up, her face flushed red, but she still lay on the ground and looked up seriously as she spoke. Bingli smiled and backed away, "Well then, we'll be waiting for you. By the way, Yura, breakfast will be served soon!"

"Damn it," Yuluo rubbed her stomach and quickly got dressed. The girls next to her also woke up. After a moment of confusion, they remembered where they were. Their expressions turned strange, and then they went to find a place to get ready.

Seeing their leisurely manner, Yura felt helpless. After tidying herself up a bit, she started exercising in the courtyard. When the monsters saw her, they all scattered. After practicing for a while, Yura felt something hit her head. When she looked up, she saw a smiling person on the roof. "Yura, you're training very diligently. Come up here. Someone asked me to bring you a gift."

"How could I possibly get up there! I'm not a monster!" Yura jumped up and down from below, her attitude towards Senju much better than before. Senju shrugged and jumped down. "Little girl, your stamina isn't up to par. Aren't normal Onmyoji able to fight monsters in close combat, use magic to fight them from a distance, and summon hundreds of shikigami at once?"

“No, no, no, there’s no such thing as an Onmyoji,” Yura looked at Senju with dead fish eyes. Senju shook his head and raised his fist. “That won’t do. Onmyoji in the past just beat up monsters for fun. How useful is spiritual power? Once the spiritual power is exhausted, are they just going to surrender?”

"..." Yura was still speechless, while Senju clapped his hands, and a row of wooden stakes rose up in the courtyard. Then he clenched his fist and said, "Watch closely, spiritual power can be used like this!"

Then Senju demonstrated his amazing skill of smashing a wooden stake with his fists, while Yura watched helplessly from the side, "So the Keikain family also has such a school of thought, using yang energy to strengthen muscles, but my talent is strong mental strength, so I'm completely unsuited to this method."

"Huh? Really? Never mind then," Senju was surprised, looked Yura up and down, wondering if she was a special talent student. Then Senju tossed the box to her, "But you look very weak. Here, this is a talisman that Reimu left for you. Keep it safe."

"A gift from Hakurei-senpai?" Yura took the box and immediately felt the surging spiritual energy slowly flowing into her body. This was a power she had never felt before. After opening the box, she was shocked. "It's... a talisman?!"

It seems she was also captivated by this rugged talisman. Senju nodded, "That's right. Don't be fooled by its casual appearance. You can feel the spiritual power it contains, right? It's much stronger than your shikigami."

"Yeah, it's hundreds of times stronger than my shikigami," Yura said, picking up a card and waving it menacingly at the house next door. "If it weren't for... I would..."

"..." Senju was speechless for a moment. What else could it be?! However, Senju still wanted to give her a slight reminder, "Although the talismans inside are powerful, they contain rules called 'spell cards,' which release large-scale barrages. Be careful when using them."

“I know,” Yura nodded, waving the talisman in her hand at Senju. “After touching the talisman, I understood the spell it contained. This is a double barrier, this is flight, this is…”

“Alright, no need to introduce them one by one,” Senju waved his hand, stopping the earnest Yura. “However, don’t think about these talismans in the future, and don’t give up your own cultivation. These are for last resort.”

“I understand,” Yuluo nodded seriously, then said happily, “My cultivation seems to have improved a lot, I can even use the forbidden techniques passed down in my family!”

"Po Jun, huh?" Senju's eyes were somewhat subtle. He was now holding the position of the Grim Reaper, and someone was talking about summoning the dead right in front of him. "It is indeed a good skill."

"Huh? How did you know?!" Yura was shocked. Senju rolled her eyes. "Have you forgotten where I came from? The principle of the Soul Reaper is to summon the spirits of the ancestors of the Keikain family back to this world. As a Shinigami, I know this best."

“Ah, that makes sense,” Yura nodded after a moment of shock. Senju, wanting to see the difference between this and the Impure World Reincarnation, urged, “Give it a try and see how powerful the Hōgun is now. Aren’t you supposed to attend the Nura Clan meeting? There are many rude yokai there. It’ll be good to use this to intimidate them.”

“That makes so much sense,” Yura, who was completely bewildered by Senju's words, nodded repeatedly, striking a pose. “I will definitely defeat the Lord of the Demons and become a qualified Onmyoji!”

"The Lord of Yokai is so worthless," Senju muttered to himself, then sensed that Yura's spiritual power was resonating with the underworld, opening a special passage from there. A ring of talismans then appeared around him. "Shikigami: Hagun!"

Then a bunch of skulls emitting blue flames appeared around them, all dressed in white Onmyoji robes. Senju nodded, looking quite understanding. "Not bad, it's quite useful among spells related to the underworld, but..."

"If only I could borrow all the power, that would be great. Once you've summoned all the ancestral souls to be like this one, you'll have achieved perfection."

Chapter 1384 Xiuyuan

"Huh?!" Yura exclaimed in surprise, turning around to see a smiling Onmyoji behind a pile of bones. "Eh, did I summon this? It didn't happen before when I tried. Could it be because my cultivation level has increased?"

"Oh my, what a talented young lady. Is it you who summoned me?" The only remaining human-shaped shikigami, the Po Jun, said with a smile. Then he looked around. "But the demonic energy here is quite strong. Oh my, this symbol... Isn't this the Nura Clan of Nurarihyon? It seems the relationship between yokai and onmyoji has improved."

"No, that's not it. There are many reasons," Yura stubbornly said. But at that moment, an old figure appeared beside her. "Oh, I never thought I would see you again after four hundred years, Hideyuki."

"Oh? So it's Nurarihyon," Onmyoji Hidemoto turned around and looked at you, his eyes brightening. "But you look quite different from four hundred years ago."

"You haven't changed at all. What tricks have you been up to?" Nurarihyon sneered. "If I remember correctly, you've been dead for four hundred years, and look at you now, hmph!"

"Well, don't worry about it," Xiuyuan chuckled, covering his mouth, then looked at Senju, "By the way, who is this?"

“This is Lord Aizen Sousuke, a Shinigami from another world,” Nurarihyon glared at Hidemoto. “He ran away from Hell and got caught, didn’t he?”

"The Grim Reaper?!" Hidemoto was surprised for a moment, then looked at Senju with curiosity. "I did sense a powerful spiritual energy, but I've never seen it over there. Could it be because it's been sleeping for so long?"

“Well, it’s normal not to have encountered one,” Senju shrugged. “If a soul like yours were discovered, we would guide you to become a Grim Reaper. Excellent souls are rare.”

"Oh dear, thank you for the compliment, Lord Grim Reaper, but I'm perfectly fine now," Hidemoto said softly, then looked at Senju in surprise, "Lord Grim Reaper, why did you draw your sword?!"

"It's nothing, just letting the sword bask in the sun," Senju said, drawing his sword, Kyoka Suigetsu, and then touching the blade. "It absolutely doesn't mean 'I'll cut you if you don't agree.'"

"..." Sensing the killing intent aimed at the soul above, the people around were speechless. Xiuyuan rubbed his forehead and asked, "May I ask, Lord Grim Reaper, what kind of treatment do you receive when you become a Grim Reaper?"

"Of course there are many benefits. First, the soul is materialized, turning the originally weak soul into a living entity with a lifespan of about ten thousand years," Thousand Hands said, pointing to himself, "I am actually a soul, you can't tell at all, can you?"

“I can’t tell,” Xiuyuan nodded from the side. “But maintaining this posture must require some kind of expenditure, right? It’s impossible to live for tens of thousands of years without paying a price.”

“That’s right. To exist, one needs to absorb spiritual particles. That’s a different kind of power from spiritual energy and demonic energy. They permeate both worlds. It is because of the existence of spiritual particles that all things have a soul,” Senju said, condensing a ball of spiritual particles. “By constantly absorbing spiritual particles and increasing spiritual pressure, that is the training method of the Shinigami.”

“I see. It feels similar to Yin-Yang techniques,” Xiuyuan nodded, glancing at Senju. “However, I’m a little worried. Will absorbing high-quality souls accelerate cultivation?”

“Of course it will,” Senju nodded, and the expressions of the people next to him changed. Then Senju continued, “However, the souls that do this will soon lose their minds. Due to the conflict of memories, they will become completely chaotic monsters. We call them ‘Hollows,’ and exterminating them is our daily work.”

"I see, so this is also the work of an Onmyoji. I'm in!" The usually serious Hidemoto's face broke into a smile. Senju, on the other hand, silently complained to himself. He could smell the 'delicious' aroma. However, a ball of light appeared in Senju's hand and slowly floated onto Hidemoto's body. The illusory Onmyoji instantly turned into a real figure. "Then welcome to the Shinigami's team. Consider these early gifts: teaching materials and asauchi."

“Oh, this feels like being alive,” Xiuyuan said, shaking hands before taking the sword and book from Senju. “What are these two things?”

"The Shinigami's teaching materials," Senji pointed to the book, then to the sword, "This is an Asauchi. By continuously injecting spiritual pressure, you can make it your own Zanpakuto."

Then Senju explained to him what a Zanpakuto was. Seeing that she had convinced him enough, Senju nodded and said, "Now, you and the Nura Clan will complete a mission as a trial. After you solve the problem, you can go to this location in the Underworld."

Senju then sent him a coordinate. Hidemoto was momentarily stunned, then looked at Senju and asked, "What's the mission?"

"Yeah, he knows. Ask him for details," Senju glanced at Nurarihyon, who nodded and then started talking to Hidemoto about Hagoromo Gitsune. Yura, standing nearby, was stunned. What to do? She used the Hakuryuu technique, and her ancestor was resurrected!

Seeing her flustered appearance, Senju also found it somewhat amusing.

"Alright, stop making that face. Hidemoto is still one of the shikigami of the Breaking Army. You can still borrow his power; after all, he's still accepting the faith of the Keikain family."

"Really?" Yura asked excitedly. Xiuyuan came over and patted her head. "Of course, little Yura. I was summoned by you, so you have to take responsibility for me."

"Get away!" Yura shouted, weakly punching her ancestor. Just then, Nura Wakana came out of the house. "Everyone, it's time for dinner. Hmm? And who is this gentleman?"

“I am Hidemoto, a relative of Yura,” Hidemoto said with a happy expression. “Please be sure to invite me to the Nura Clan’s morning banquet!”

“That’s great! I’ll go help Mr. Hidemoto with the preparations,” Wakana said happily as she ran back. Hidemoto was still smiling and saying, “Ah, it’s so nice to be able to come to Nurarihyon’s house for a meal. That lady is such a kind person.”

"Tch," Nurarihyon snorted unhappily, then walked into the house. "That's my son Rihan's wife. I'll introduce you to my son and grandson in a bit."

"Oh my, you have a son and grandson already? The world really flies," Hidemoto remarked, then looked at Yura. "By the way, how many generations is the Kasaiin family now?"

"Twenty-seventh generation, wait, why do our ancestors get along so well with the yokai?!" Yura, who was slow to react, only realized this now, but Hidemoto just patted her head and said, "Don't worry about these details. But twenty-seventh generation, it seems you've found a way to avoid the fox spirit's curse."

Chapter 1385 Breakfast

"But!" Yura wanted to say something, but Xiuyuan covered her mouth with his finger. "Alright, you have to see things with your own eyes. The most important thing now is to completely eliminate the female fox and break the curse of the Kaikain family."

"Waaah," Yura grumbled unhappily, while Senju nodded in agreement. As expected of a clever person, she had discovered the opportunity to completely eliminate Hagoromo Gitsune from the smallest details.

Then Yura dismissed the shikigami of the broken army, and the group went into the house to eat. Of course, not everyone ate together. Senju and Yura went into the room where Rikuo and his classmates were eating.

Nurarihyon had invited Senju to dine on the other side, but Senju refused, saying that it was impossible to eat in front of a bunch of strange creatures!

Inside the house, there was also Hyori, but the most conspicuous was Kiyotsugu Kiyoji. He looked bitter and resentful, wondering why he couldn't find the yokai. He had clearly seen (dreamed of) them last night, but he couldn't find any trace of them. Moreover, he had heard from Jiro Shima that there was a yokai banquet last night, and he had actually fallen asleep! This made him very upset.

Fortunately, the classmates were still mindful of keeping secrets and didn't tell him about the curse or Fullbring. However, judging from their eagerness, Senju knew that they wouldn't be able to keep the secret for long. But Senju had already taken precautions, and those abilities couldn't be used within Kiyotsugu's sight.

"Who is this?" Then everyone noticed Xiuyuan, after all, he was dressed in eye-catching clothes and was handsome. Xiuyuan patted Yura's head and said, "Hello everyone, I am Yura's shikigami. Please take care of me."

"Wow, that's amazing!" Kiyotsugu rushed over and grabbed Hidemoto's arm. Then his expression turned strange. "It has warmth and a heartbeat. What is this? It's not a shikigami."

“Yes, yes, yes,” Yura nodded frantically, seeing Kiyotsugu’s disappointed look. “He’s a relative of mine, and also an Onmyoji!”

"So you're an Onmyoji," the classmates said with varying expressions. Kiyotsugu became interested again, while the others looked at Yura and Hidemoto, then at Rikuo and Hyorei, and decided to eat properly.

"Oh my, Lord Aizen, can I eat too?" Sitting there, Hidemoto finally realized that his current 'body' was real after the touch. He hadn't realized this when he touched Yura, after all, Onmyoji and Shikigami have a very close connection.

“Of course, you can eat as much as you want,” Senju said, taking a bite of the food in front of her. “It tastes very good, full of the taste of happiness. You should try it too.”

“Oh, I definitely have to try it,” Hidemoto nodded, while Senju looked at Kiyotsugu, “By the way, which shrine are we going to today?”

"Go to a shrine?" Kiyotsugu was completely bewildered; he didn't remember ever hearing about it. But this was his specialty! He abruptly flipped open his laptop. "Mr. Aizen seems quite interested in shrines, so today I'll tell you about the largest shrine in Japan..."

"Wait, Kiyotsugu-kun, shouldn't this be done after school?!" Rikuo said timidly from the side. Kiyotsugu then realized, "Ah, we still have to go to school. Well then, Aizen-san, after school, I'll take you to visit the nearby shrine. I'm very familiar with the legends there, the most famous one is the 'Jade...'"

"Uh..." Senju was speechless for a moment, looking at Kiyotsugu, whose speaking skills were comparable to Usopp's. Did they actually go to school?! Seriously, these guys are middle schoolers! They're a bit too young. I guess I brought my anime-watching mindset with me.
