Crossover: A Different Inuyasha

The azure flames of Kagu flowed between his palms for a moment, then turned into a blazing crimson, as if leaping from the deep blue of the ocean into the red of lava.

The crimson flames swirled in his palm, enveloping the jade box within. The sealing patterns on the surface of the jade box cracked and peeled off rapidly under the licking of the crimson flames, emitting a series of fine crackling sounds.

'This is a seal that only a powerful priestess could break; it's truly a monster…'

To the astonishment of the Princess, the jade box shattered, revealing four precious jades inside, each shimmering with a different colored halo.

The blue of the Dragon Luo, the red of the Fierce Luo, the white of the Beast Luo, and the black of the Black Tortoise.

The four precious jades hovered in mid-air, radiating demonic energy fluctuations no less than those of the [Sun Wheel Celestial Phenomenon]. The Four War Gods performed poorly, but we also need to see who made the move.

At their peak, the Four War Gods, combined with the final four into one, became the Little Vajra War God, whose strength was enough to rival that of a Nascent Soul Celestial Venerable!

The fact that the dog general was forced to return empty-handed back then shows how formidable he is.

Inuyasha drew the Tessaiga from his waist, the blade flashing a cold, white light amidst the interplay of blue and crimson flames. With a flick of his wrist, he swept it across the four jewels in succession.

The moment the blade pierced the precious jade, its brilliance shattered into tiny fragments, like broken glass, scattering in all directions.

Tessaiga absorbed all the demonic power within the shards of light. Four streams of light of different colors lit up along the spine of the blade, then circled the blade's markings before sinking deep into the body and disappearing.

Having completed the final task of his journey, Inuyasha flipped his wrist, and the blade went into its sheath. The metal fit against the scabbard with a very faint hum.

"It's done."

He clapped his hands, his gaze returning to the green fluorescent cluster in mid-air.

"Kanae, do you want to come with me? Asagi and the others miss you."

What else could Zouhime say?

I have no choice but to go with you.

New Year's Eve.

Inside the secret chamber of Rashomon, a spirit communication array had been completed—the runes were several times more intricate than before, and a ghostly green light slowly traveled along the patterns on the stone slab.

Sesshomaru, who had been invited by Inuyasha, stood in the center of the magic circle, raised his hand and pulled the Tenseiga from his waist, then twisted his wrist and inserted the Deva Path Sword into the core of the magic circle.

The sword's edge pierced the stone an inch or so, and a circle of white light rippled outwards from the sword like waves.

The passage between the two realms stabilized under the white light, like a mirror with its frame fixed.

"Inuyasha".

Sesshomaru's cold voice was like frost falling on a stone slab on a winter night: "Don't ruin yourself for a woman."

"Even in the monster graveyard located between life and death, one cannot move freely, let alone in the Netherworld exclusive to the dead."

Sesshomaru, who truly considers Inuyasha his younger brother, said a lot this time.

His eyes fell on Inuyasha's calm profile, and he knew what the answer was.

Inuyasha turned his head and glanced at Sesshomaru. "Sesshomaru, you don't understand."

The big dog's lips twitched, and his hands were itching to punch him—that was such an infuriating remark!

"When you come back, I'll have to teach you a good lesson on how to respect your elder brother."

"Let's talk about it another time."

After saying this, Inuyasha turned back and looked into the depths of the rift ahead.

On the other side, the sound of the Styx River could be faintly heard. Deep in the sea of ​​flowers, a beautiful figure stood with her back to him, her posture clear and aloof.

The silver-haired half-demon took a step forward and disappeared into the rift from the mortal world.

The Tenseiga glowed steadily behind him, firmly locking the passage between the two worlds.

"Kikyo, I'm here."

"Inuyasha, you dare to come here again."

Kikyo watched as Inuyasha walked towards her step by step through the surging sea of ​​flowers, his gaze as calm as a frozen lake.

"My beloved woman is still here, why don't I dare to come?"

Inuyasha stopped a few steps away, his voice cutting through the wind, his smile overshadowing the flowers, "I've come to take you away."

Kikyo raised her eyes, her gaze swirling with emotion, which then subsided, leaving her beautiful face devoid of any warmth or emotion.

"Inuyasha, stop lying to me. If you truly love me, stay here with me."

“That won’t do, babies can’t be born here.” Inuyasha shook his head in refusal, and just as he was about to say something, an angry voice rang out.

"Inuyasha, you big liar!"

Kikyo reached behind her back, her body arching and flipping in her palm, the string being pulled open.

The spiritual energy arrow condensed and took shape on the bowstring, like a miniature sun compressed to its limit, humming on the bowstring and emitting a deep purple spiritual energy light.

Inuyasha didn't say anything more.

At this moment, Kikyo is like a desperate gambler unwilling to face reality, unable to hear any different opinions.

The arrow of slaying demons flew straight through the distance between him and Kikyo—crimson petals fluttered off the stem, the wind whipped up by the arrow swept into the air, swirling into a beautiful crimson vortex.

Among them, the cold, hard arrows flew towards Inuyasha's chest.

"Kikyo, even if it means harming you, I will still take you away from the Underworld!"

Just before the arrow tip was about to touch his chest, azure flames exploded from Inuyasha's body.

In an instant, the Garment of Kagutsuchi was no longer just a flaming garment covering the surface of the fabric, but expanded and rose, transforming into a great blue sun that illuminated the sea of ​​flowers and the underworld.

Tiny flames of light drooped from the edge of the blue sun, like thousands of elongated tongues of fire, licking at the swirling petals and gray mist all around.

The arrow struck the blue sun, and the resulting explosion created a massive circular crater in the sea of ​​spider lilies, which stretched for hundreds of feet.

The violent shockwave spread outwards from the point of impact, like a pebble thrown into a deep pool of the underworld, with ripples spreading outwards in layers.

Countless eyes in the underworld suddenly opened, casting their peering gazes.

Even Touga was startled. He abruptly looked up. "That direction? It's the shrine maiden Kikyo that Hosenki reported! Wait—"

"And that Inuyasha brat too!"

"How did they start fighting? They're all kids who can't talk properly!"

Douya stood up, and with a flash, he sped off in the direction from which the fluctuations came.

At the same time, the powerful and unrestrained aura, clearly demonstrating the attitude of a large entourage, quickly reduced the number of eyes that were secretly watching.

'We need to find a way to get rid of these bedbugs in the sewers.'

When Douya Wang passed through the churning gray fog and reached the edge of the sea of ​​red spider lilies, he saw—

Inuyasha stood in the center of the blasted circular crater, his azure flame robes swirling around him, and his demon horns jutting out from his silver hair, radiating an intense aura that even he found trembling with.

Between the son's hands, the azure flames were slowly closing, like a lotus flower closing, enveloping a figure within.

"Kikyo, let's go home."

Inuyasha gathered the sphere into his arms and looked at Old Deng, who was approaching from a distance.

"Inuyasha, what are you doing—"

Toga stared at the demon horn on Inuyasha's forehead, then swept his gaze over the azure flames surrounding him, and finally looked at the unsheathed Tessaiga, his eyes filled with a complex expression of shock and confusion.

"what happened?"

Inuyasha's lips twitched, as if he wanted to explain, but then he felt that the current occasion was not suitable for a long explanation.

The deathly aura of the underworld was surging in from all directions, piercing his skin like invisible ice needles, and the dull pain of being eroded in his bone marrow was spreading along his spine.

He took a deep breath, and the azure flames around him gradually receded, the shadows of the demon horns faded from his forehead, revealing a radiant face.

"Dad, there's no time to explain now. I'll invite you to my wedding later."

After Inuyasha finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared into the underworld, drawn by the magic circle.

Douya stood there, somewhat stunned. "Judging from what this brat is saying, he came to the Underworld to kidnap a little girl?!"

Is this a popular trend now?

Is this correct?

The ancient demon, Touya, was puzzled, but a smile appeared on his lips.

Although it's unclear what methods Inuyasha used, it's enough that he was clear-headed and able to control the power of that blue flame.

As for girls, as long as you treat them well, any misunderstanding can be resolved.

"It seems I haven't played any role... The child has grown up, what am I, a dead man, supposed to worry about? Once the sheath for the Tsurugi is finished, it's time to go find Izayoi."

Thinking of this, Douya Wang thought of Ling Yue and sighed softly.

This was the only thing he felt deeply guilty about in his eventful life.

Given the choice between Lingyue, who was so powerful she needed no protection, and Izayoi, who was just an ordinary human princess, he ultimately chose the latter.

In fact, Toga had also considered having it all, but things didn't go as planned, and in the end, he could only make the final arrangements in the Underworld.

"I wish I could have a happy family like that!" Dejected, Touya-o carried the Murakumo-ga and headed towards various parts of the Underworld.

He planned to kill a few old monsters who were still alive but coveted the present world to relieve his stress and also to reduce some pressure on his children.

Inuyasha returned to the human world, and before he could even get his footing, he felt a gaze shot at him from the side, like a blade honed to its finest, brushing past his skin.

Having witnessed Inuyasha's performance in the Underworld, Sesshomaru, who thought he was invincible and felt lonely, was eager to challenge him.

"Inuyasha, let's have a match—"

"Next time definitely!"

Inuyasha replied without hesitation.

He rushed past Sesshomaru, hurrying towards the Ruri Shrine where Kikyo's body was kept.

Sesshomaru stood there, watching the open door and his younger brother's figure disappear in the blink of an eye, and clenched his fists.

He paced back and forth a few times, then noticed that the Tenseiga was still stuck in the ground. He reached out, pulled it out, sheathed the sword, and turned to leave.

His handsome figure disappeared into the moonlight.

On the other side, Inuyasha entered the secret room in the backyard of the Ruri Shrine. The room was warm and quiet, with several luminous pearls embedded in the four walls, emitting a soft and stable glow.

In the center of the secret room, a stone platform was covered with thick brocade and cotton quilts.

A figure dressed in a brand-new white robe and crimson trousers lay peacefully asleep on the bed, just like Sleeping Beauty awaiting a prince's kiss.

Inuyasha slowed his pace, slowly stopping by the stone platform. Gazing at Kikyo's serene face, he gave a self-deprecating smile, "When the time comes, what's there to hesitate about?"

He had already messed up the plot beyond recognition, and he had absolutely no confidence that Kagome would be dragged from the Well of Bones in the modern world into the Ruri Shrine by the Centipede Demon or some other monster more than twenty years later.

Rather than letting the possibility of not being able to have both Kikyo and Kagome slip away, it's better to get Kikyo first, and as for Kagome...

All the beautiful impressions and possessiveness he had of the girl remained in his own fantasy.

Inuyasha can still distinguish between reality and fantasy.

"I remember that the Warring States period and modern society are parallel universes."

Er Gouzi unleashed his astonishing wisdom.

Since it's a parallel universe, is it possible—like in "Future Diary"—that the female protagonist of timeline 1 finds the male protagonist of timeline 2, and the male protagonist of timeline 2 is found by the female protagonist of timeline 3?

"Damn it, you're so indecisive, like a spineless woman!"

Inuyasha stroked Kikyo's soul in his arms, looking at Kikyo's peaceful sleeping face on the bed. This was his beloved, so close yet so far!

"I won't regret what I've done!"

Chapter 75: A Gift at the Banquet, the Awakening of Kikyo

The New Year's banquet was held in front of the gate of Ruri Shrine.

The shrine was illuminated by thousands of paper lanterns, and the warm light stretched like a galaxy from the stone steps at the foot of the mountain to the eaves of the main hall.

To avoid the pressure of gatherings and inconvenience, the Water Mirror Technique was developed two years ago by Yu Shi Bai Lu.

At this moment, above the shrine, two ethereal projections are suspended in the night sky, like two giant mirrors held up by moonlight.
