In other words, many of the evil deeds this guy committed ultimately stemmed from his hatred and jealousy of Inuyasha.

So, what if, what if Naraku were really given the chance to use the Shikon Jewel to wish for the abandonment of his own heart and to become a complete demon?

The human heart versus the chance to become a demon—at the very last moment, Naraku, what choice will you make?

Zhang Chengyi sat on Shanhu's shoulders, a bright smile spreading across his rat-like face.

That's what makes it truly interesting.

Update tonight

I'm on an IV drip right now. I'll go back and write later. I'll update around 10 AM and then around 11 AM.

Chapter 187 It's all Onigumo's fault

The Castle of Abyss.

"Da~"

"Kikyo has appeared." A string of Shikon Jewel fragments fell to the ground. Kanna, without any emotional fluctuation, took a few steps back and stood by the wall, saying, "The plan to kill Kagome Higurashi has failed."

"Her soul was too vast." So vast that even her mirror was shattered.

Is that so?

As Naraku spoke, his eyes never left the Shikon Jewels that had fallen onto the tatami mat. He should have caught them, but for some reason, his hand twitched, and the jewels fell.

[Is it Onigumo's boring human heart?]

He quickly found a scapegoat, reached out and picked up the jade, which had been purified to a clear state, and gradually became stained with darkness.

With a soft "hum," the floor and walls began to vibrate.

Don't be fooled by the fact that each piece of the Shikon Jewel is incomplete; its demonic power is undiminished. Even a complete Shikon Jewel would hardly be able to match the demonic power of the necklace before you. It's a case of quantity over quality.

Naraku possessed unimaginable demonic power simply by holding it without integrating it into his body. His seaweed-like hair floated up, and the excessive demonic power caused the miasma filling his body to leak out.

"Lord!"

The castle lord, whose body was possessed by Naraku, saw Yin Dao's subordinates rushing in due to the unusual earthquake. The moment they inhaled the miasma, they collapsed to the ground without a sound, and soon their bodies were melted into foam.

Even Kanna, who was acting as a clone, quietly left the room.

"What is your wish?" Countless overlapping voices emanated from the corrupted Shikon Jewel necklace and reached Naraku's mind.

He clearly realized one thing: he didn't need any magic at all. As long as he swallowed these Shikon Jewels one by one, he would definitely be able to fulfill his wish, satisfy his desire, and become a complete youkai.

No, not even all of it is needed. Swallowing just a portion will push his body to its limit, making it unable to hold any more of the Shikon Jewel. He will then use his superhuman power to become a complete demon.

Countless illusions appeared. After making a wish, he completely rid himself of Onigumo's repulsive human heart, and then—

"No."

Naraku closed his eyes, and he overcame those illusions with his willpower. The voice in the Shikon Jewel was also gradually suppressed by his evil aura.

"This body is too weak; I need a stronger one."

"Besides, even if I become a complete monster, I probably still won't be able to fight that field mouse..."

He opened his eyes, his expression returning to its usual calm. With a wave of his hand, the window opened, and the miasma inside the room drifted out with the wind.

The azure sky was incredibly clear, and in a daze, he seemed to see Kikyo's face.

"whee"

"The day I become a fully-fledged monster, I will settle things completely with you all."

"Kikyo, Inuyasha."

However, physical strength does not seem to determine whether one can become a complete yokai; absorbing the Shikon Jewel allows one to become a complete yokai as well.

Is it still the same problem with Onigumo?

-----------------

Above Maple Village.

"The village's location is concealed by a barrier."

As Cui Zi spoke, the barrier was unilaterally crushed by her spiritual power, exposing the village to the outside.

More than half of the buildings collapsed, and a strong smell of blood permeated the air. In front of a wooden house, there were patients with bandages everywhere.

"Huh?" Before Yunmu could land, Zhang Chengyi felt something lock onto him.

Is the target locked based on demonic power?

"Lord Rat God, it is spiritual power, spiritual power carrying resentment, hatred and longing."

Midori's voice held a hint of regret as she sighed, "A fragile body made of bones and earth, a dead shrine maiden..."

Such powerful spiritual energy, and she's already dead—is she Kikyo?

Zhang Chengyi became interested and peered down. He saw a shrine maiden dressed in red and white robes drawing her bow and gazing at the mica high in the sky.

With his current power as a demon, he could see clearly that her dignified, aloof, and beautiful face, coupled with her imposing and unapproachable aura, would definitely arouse many people's desire to conquer her.

No wonder the arrogant Inuyasha speaks so directly, and Onigumo is so obsessed with him that even Naraku, who has abandoned Onigumo's heart, can't help but love him.

"Wow, what a beautiful girl."

After Zhang Chengyi said that, both Cui Zi and Shan Hu fell silent.

Mica snorted and then slowly descended.

Even in the end, the deceased priestess Kikyo did not release the arrow in her hand. She simply kept the bow drawn and said calmly, "The exorcist Sango, and the Rat God?"

Inuyasha burst out of the house, pulled out the Tessaiga, and glared at Zhang Chengyi with a furious expression, saying, "It's you!"

"Calm down!" Granny Kaede, pale-faced with a bandage showing on her neck, leaned against the door frame and said, "Inuyasha, since you know it was Naraku's conspiracy, don't blame others."

Has Naraku been here?

Zhang Chengyi jumped from Coral's shoulder to Kirara's head, chuckling, "Let me think... the Shikon Jewel I gave you was all stolen by Naraku?"

"So you really are in cahoots with Naraku!" Inuyasha hissed again.

"Cuizi."

"sit down."

【Cuizi? 】

Kikyo was taken aback. Of course she knew that the priestess who fought the demon hundreds of years ago and was ultimately transformed into the Shikon Jewel was named Midori. But after the rat demon in front of her called out "Midori", his spiritual power was able to forcibly use the rosary on Inuyasha's body to perform a jutsu.

Could it really be Midori?

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Zhang Chengyi didn't even look at Er Gouzi, but looked at Kikyo and said, "It seems it was stolen. Naraku sent a clone to entangle me, and I figured Er Gouzi wouldn't be able to hold on. I didn't expect you to come too."

Er Gouzi?

Inuyasha, who was lying on the ground, was furious, but he couldn't stand up. Midori's spiritual power was too strong, and with magic as a medium, no one could stand up.

Kikyo listened quietly and then asked, "So, what brings you to Maple Village?"

"Where's Kagome Higurashi?" Zhang Chengyi looked around. They were about to witness a chaotic love triangle, and it wouldn't be fun without one of the female leads.

He irresponsibly guessed, "Is he dead?"

"Even if you die, Kagome won't die!" Inuyasha shouted, lying on the ground.

"Shut up, Er Gouzi." As soon as Zhang Chengyi finished speaking, Cui Zi naturally silenced Inuyasha.

With the rosary beads as a medium, Midori could use her spiritual power to cast spell after spell on Inuyasha, leaving him with absolutely no room to resist.

Zhang Chengyi said thoughtfully, "It seems she's not dead. Since the Shikon Jewel was taken away, she probably won't return to the future. So, she must be injured."

"Let's go, Coral." Now, all they had to do was wait.

If Naraku were to reveal himself, that guy would never abandon Kikyo...

"and many more!"

Chapter 188 Er Gouzi Never Asks for Help

"and many more!"

The person who shouted those words was Granny Feng.

Zhang Chengyi was a little surprised. Theoretically speaking, he should have had no interaction with Granny Feng at all.

He could understand even if Kikyo called him, since he mentioned Midori and created so many Shikon Jewels.

Granny Feng stared intently at the rat-faced woman and asked, "You...you also come from that era?"

Zhang Chengyi thought about it and realized it was true, so he said, "The eras are about the same, but I'm a little later than Kagome Higurashi."

"It would be about thirty years after the time she lived."

Kagome Higurashi lives in Tokyo in the 1990s, while he dies in 2030, a significant time gap.

Of course, the biggest problem is that the world in front of us is no different from that in a comic book.

It's not that it's incomprehensible. As a master of game editing, he has already verified it in multiple worlds, where there are films, comics, and games that correspond to each other.

For example, Highschool of the Dead is based on the manga and anime of Bleach, Naruto, One Piece, Inuyasha, and Dragon Ball.

It's not like the comic book has become the world; it's more like information from different worlds seeping in, or perhaps an influence from a higher dimension? Anyway, he doesn't understand it yet. He just knows instinctively through the modifier that the world isn't virtual, and that's it. As for philosophical questions like "Where did I come from and where am I going?" and "What is the essence of the world?", those questions usually only come to mind after he's had his fun.

"I understand." Granny Feng frowned and thought for a long time. Could there be other time tunnels in this world made from the Tree of Ages?

Seeing Zhang Chengyi about to turn and leave again, she quickly asked, "Do you know that Ge Wei can't go back?"

"Ok?"

Zhang Chengyi became interested, patted Yunmu who was about to leave, and said, "Can't we get past the Well of Bone Eaters?"

"It seems you know a lot," Granny Feng said cryptically.

Zhang Chengyi casually made up an excuse and said, "Since you know that I came back from the future, you should understand that what is happening now has already ended in the future."
