My wife's name is Platycodon
Page 128
Kikyo nodded, understanding Miroku's concerns, and said, "Don't worry, since I'm here, Naraku won't interfere!"
She was too busy and had no time to meet the senior who set up the barrier, and the same was true for Naraku.
The situation has forced him to the point where the truth has been revealed. How could Naraku possibly do anything unnecessary?
When Miroku heard this, he was immediately relieved. Sango handed Kanna to Amber to look after, then turned around and disappeared at the end of the tunnel with Kagome.
Shippo watched them leave, extremely worried that something might happen to Kagome, and whispered, "Is this really possible?"
But without getting an answer from Kikyo, Shippo dejectedly kicked Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, are you just going to just watch?"
"What!" Inuyasha was furious. Although their fate was over, he trusted Kikyo very much, so he did not stop Kagome's action this time.
Shippo glared. Inuyasha could survive in the barrier, at most he would lose his demonic power and become a human. But it was different. Once he left Kikyo's vicinity, he would definitely be reduced to ashes. So he was very afraid of the person who set up the barrier.
"Don't you have the red sword Tessaiga? Why do you have to let Kagome go?"
Inuyasha curled his lips. The red sword Tessaiga could break the barrier, but it also had its limitations. You couldn't expect him to split the entire mountain in half.
In fact, even with his full strength, Wind Wound could only flatten a small hill.
Boom! Jialuo came back unscathed, walking like a dragon and a tiger.
Jia Luo sneered: "Naraku didn't give these monsters any orders. They just couldn't stand the loneliness and came out to attack us."
This is not how you seek death.
Kikyo was not surprised by this result and chuckled, "If it was Naraku who ordered it, then I would be surprised."
She paused, and continued, "It seems that the barrier not only provides protection, but also has a blocking function. While protecting, it will also deprive the monsters here of their freedom and imprison them in this mountain."
"How do you know?" Jialuo was a little surprised.
Kikyo smiled and said nothing. This was inside the barrier, so the actions of the monsters were not prohibited, but outside, it was impossible to let the monsters come and go freely, otherwise it would be too conspicuous and not in line with Naraku's usual style.
More importantly, this mountain looks holy on the outside but is evil on the inside. Her judgment was correct, there is something wrong with the entire mountain.
But she was not that scared. Her thoughts crossed the space and quickly locked onto Naraku's position.
And at this moment, Naraku, who was hiding on the top of the mountain, also noticed something and his eyes met Kikyo's.
He did not dodge or escape. His eyes were dead and cold, without any emotion, as if he had lost all life.
Kikyo sighed deeply and said, "Once the thread of fate is broken, it can never be connected again."
Inuyasha felt that this sentence was familiar. He had heard Kikyo say it to him before. It implied that their relationship could never go back to the way it was before, but was now like strangers.
But now these words were not spoken to him, but to Naraku.
The earthen arrow she had shot before was the arrow of desire of Spider Demon. It was tainted with the soil of Spider Demon's mind, which could invalidate Naraku's demonic power and magic. In other words, as long as Kikyo used Spider Demon's soil, Naraku would have no way to do anything to her.
Now? Kikyo also uses the dirty desires of the spider demon in the soil to return it to Naraku, not to create a flaw in Naraku's humanity, but to sever the connection between her and the spider demon!
This is what is called fate.
It is invisible and intangible, but it really exists. Once two different individuals are entangled, their fate will change and this special karmic line will be created.
And Naraku, like a spider spinning silk, weaves a big web based on cause and effect, taking into account all the lives related to him and creating countless pains and disasters.
But the moment Kikyo cut the thread, she would no longer regard Naraku as a spider demon, and would not even have any special feelings for Naraku as a being.
Chapter 98: Naraku, you don’t understand human nature
In the dark space, Naraku stood in the void, wearing bone armor and a heavy murderous aura, but his facial features were soft and handsome, very much like a Confucian general who was good at planning strategies.
He murmured, "Kikyo, is this what you want?"
He unconsciously touched his chest. The white boy was half of his heart, but the more important half was called the red child, which was now absorbed by him.
Because of the arrow shot by Demon Spider, the feelings for Demon Spider rekindled in Naraku's heart.
This wasn't a bad thing, as it didn't cause him any problems.
In fact, this can also be regarded as an alternative kind of completion. He was born from Spider Demon and became Naraku, and then absorbed countless monsters to strengthen himself and was promoted to a big monster. But then he accepted everything from Spider Demon again and finally became a truly complete body.
That ugly and dirty heart, the humble and disgusting desires, and the pure greed for Platycodon.
But now, Naraku no longer needs to rack his brains to separate these emotions.
Because he had nothing to do with Kikyo now, the spider-shaped burn marks that had been like a thorn in his side had disappeared.
Even if Kikyo gets the Demon Spider Soil again, he will not be immune to his demonic power.
Only by killing Kikyo can he become a real monster - this is self-defeating. He can crush Spider Demon's thoughts at any time.
He has a strong sense of self-esteem and has always wanted to get rid of his half-demon identity and the status of being despised by others.
His long-cherished wish came true, but Naraku found that he was not as ecstatic as he had imagined. Instead, he was filled with a heavy and silent sadness.
The empty soul is still empty, with nothing in it. At this moment, the joys and sorrows of the world are also indifferent to Naraku, and he suddenly feels that this life is meaningless.
He subconsciously took out the Four Souls Jade and saw that the round gem still had a flaw. A gleam of light appeared in Naraku's dead eyes.
Kagura, is this your final revenge?
Release the last four soul fragments, in order to gain freedom, at the cost of life...
Are your feathers still flying in the sky?
Have you entered outside the sky?
If so, let me go to the dark galaxy, wander and drift to a farther place.
In despair, Naraku came up with this idea.
He is now a great monster, and a collection of monsters. There is almost no end to his lifespan. Even if he falls into a long sleep, it will take hundreds of thousands of years for his life to wear out.
And who knows, it is possible to find passages to other worlds in the vast universe.
In this case, he has not failed yet, because the last piece has not been found, and Kikyo cannot attack him.
It is useless to just kill Naraku. The cause and effect of the Shikon Jade is still there, and the soul of the miko cannot be liberated. After several years, after Naraku dies, he will also become a part of the Shikon Jade.
The witches and the monsters seem to be inseparable, and have continued for so many years, with no end in sight...
Naraku closed his eyes and waited in the darkness.
Not long after, Kikyo showed up, breaking the darkness, followed by Garo, Seshomaru and others.
Naraku opened his eyes and was not surprised to see Amber, as he had long known that Amber had intentions of rebellion. The two had a blood feud, although Naraku did not care.
His gaze stayed on Shenwu: "Shenwu, are you betraying me too?"
Kikyo didn't say anything, but Shenwu had a confused expression, was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head.
There is no betrayal.
Jialuo didn't kill her. It was Coral who took her away from the monster cemetery. But when Coral left to find the person who set up the barrier, she changed her mind and followed Amber, feeling like a captive.
"Kanna... Ha, a hollow mind, without emotions, desires, or even demonic powers..." Naraku sneered, "Don't you even have the desire to live?"
Shenwu's little face was expressionless, without the slightest fluctuation.
"It seems that even you don't know it. How sad. I thought Kagura's ending would make you fall in love, but it turns out to be just this much?" Naraku sighed. The time was too short. He didn't give Kanna time to change her mind. Otherwise, she would understand all the feelings sooner or later.
Of course, Naraku did this not out of kindness, but because he felt that waiting for Shenwu to understand her feelings and then send her to death would definitely make him happy for a long time.
Naraku finished the conversation with his clone and ignored Kanna. He stayed on Kikyo for a while, then looked at Garo: "You think you won't be angry because of any suffering in this era, why are you so murderous now?"
Jialuo said nothing, but his defense was indeed broken.
He also killed Kagura with his own hands, but at that time, he just felt regretful and felt that he had witnessed the withering of a clean and beautiful thing.
But this time it was different. Kagura was filled with intense hatred and anger, a tremendous hatred for Naraku. But after seeing him before she died, that hatred actually dissipated a lot, and she was even smiling.
Even though her face looked extremely ugly at that time.
However, I became inexplicably angry.
"Where is Kagura's heart?" Jia Luo strode over. Kagura never got her heart until her death.
"You actually asked for the heart of the dead. Shura from the underworld, have you shed tears for the women from the mortal world?" Naraku asked with interest.
Jia Luo's eyes were cold: "There is a price to pay for joking with me!"
He really made a move, with great momentum and overwhelming force, crushing forward like a tidal wave, vowing to get Kagura's heart.
The strong momentum squeezed the dark space, and Naraku's face became ugly: "Kikyo, are you just going to sit there and do nothing?"
Kikyo said lightly: "It's all my own fault."
Bang!
Garo attacked with incredible force. Naraku naturally refused to sit there and wait for death. He fought back hard, but was defeated after three rounds.
In the darkness, many monsters came together to replenish Naraku's body.
"If you continue like this, you will never get the complete Four Souls Jade." Naraku's face became even gloomier, and his eyes were dead and lifeless.
It's not that he has no talent for fighting, but Garo's body is naturally able to restrain monsters, especially those like him who rely on the accumulation of a large number of monsters.
If Seshomaru's demonic power was steel and cement, his demonic power was equivalent to a sand and stone fortress that would be shattered by a single attack. His qualities in all aspects were inferior to those of Garo, so he naturally appeared vulnerable.
Kikyo said in a deep voice: "You shouldn't insult Jia Luo."
This unfamiliar name made Naraku frown slightly, but was that an insult?
At this time, Naraku suddenly said quietly: "You have to think clearly. If I give Kagura's heart to you, the Four Souls Jade will never be restored to its original state."
His original plan was to use Kagura's heart to summon back her feathers, but he later changed his mind and went into the starry sky alone. He was also able to find the correct course according to the mysterious cause and effect until he found the fragment.
But Kikyo heard this, looked at Naraku with pity, shook her head and sighed: "Naraku, you don't understand human nature."
Kikyo raised her hand, and in her palm was a white feather, which was the feather that Kagura gave to Garo in the monster cemetery.
Naraku's face changed drastically and he looked up. Although there was a rock layer above, both he and Kikyo sensed a faint breath of the Four Souls Jade approaching quickly.
Chapter 99: Fifty years of life, like a dream and an illusion
Naraku was stunned for a moment, unable to believe it.
"How could such a thing happen?"
"Do you think Kagura will let you control her?" Kikyo sighed softly. Although she vaguely guessed the result the moment she took over Kagura's soul, she still couldn't help but sigh at this moment.
The monster girl who yearned for freedom finally broke free from Naraku's control.
"Being too scheming will only backfire." Kikyo said calmly. In her opinion, Naraku was just tying himself up in knots.
There are no completely obedient chess pieces in this world, and this is especially true for Kagura.
The situation was out of control, but Naraku remained calm in the face of this desperate scene.
Survival and death are not difficult issues for monsters.
On the contrary, only humans, whose lives are short, attach importance to the world after death and are unable to accept the fact that they are about to die.
However, Naraku now asks himself in his heart: "Is this the end of my life?"
He was very unwilling to give up, and he had one last wish, but now it seemed that none of them could be fulfilled.
"Kikyo..." Naraku slowly said this name. For so many years, it has been haunting him. He could only glimpse the voice and smile of this priestess in the memories of Spider Demon.
That is a figure engraved in the soul, with a gentle posture, picturesque features, a calm tone, and great tolerance...
But at this point, he could no longer use Demon Spider as an excuse. The moment Kikyo's earthen arrow pierced his body, the burn mark that symbolized love also disappeared.
Naraku could no longer deceive himself and was convinced that it was the Spider Demon's Heart that was interfering with his judgment.
Naraku's murmurs were heard by Kikyo, and those words contained strong and complex emotions. Even though the cause and effect had been severed, the past could not be easily forgotten, and Kikyo also showed an expression of infinite sadness.
"Kikyo is dead."
"Fifty years on earth are nothing but a tiny thing compared to the heaven and earth. Looking at the world, it is like a dream. Life is just once, and death is just around the corner." She saw these words in a book brought by Kagome, but they were very consistent with her experience.
Until now, the two who were once mortal enemies can communicate peacefully and have let go of many things. She never sticks to her current identity. Jialuo has been deliberately avoiding this issue, but she is very calm.
Naraku said with relief: "Yes, Kikyo is no longer alive. And I, Naraku, should have died fifty years ago."
He spent the past fifty years in a daze, without any goals, like a walking corpse, constantly looking for fun and excitement, and even cursing the Maitreya clan at the cost of his own life.
The reappearance of the Four Souls Jade brought back the cause and effect that had been dormant fifty years ago.
