Chapter 239: Ghost King (Part 1)



After hearing what Tsuchimikado Heisaku said, everyone present calmed down and stopped thinking about Tsuchimikado Heisaku's "Shikigami" issue for a while.

However, this does not mean that they have forgotten about it. After the meeting, they will still keep a close eye on this matter and ask Tsuchimikado Kurosaku to explain it clearly.

It is better to be safe than sorry. Although the probability of Tsuchimikado Kurosaku being a ghost is not high, they now feel an uncomfortable aura, so they still have to verify it for the sake of caution.

After all, the times have changed. It is no longer the era of nuclear war. In this extraordinary era, everything is possible.

"I encountered Japanese ghosts when I came to Sakura City. This form of ghost has a similar aura to vampires, but they have nothing in common in other aspects."

Edward spoke first, describing the ghosts he had encountered. "Similarly, the damage I inflict on ghosts with ordinary elemental magic is minimal, but if I use light magic, the effect is exceptional."

Dawn George said calmly, "The power of Eternal Night can directly kill ghosts."

Lin Chuo also spoke up: "This poor Taoist has just arrived in Yingdu and has never seen a ghost before."

The three of them were very strong-willed and seemed to be stealing the show. Wang Rui sat at the very end of the meeting room and didn't dare to say a word.

say what?

Everyone present was a tough guy, and I was the only Husky there, so there was no way I could fit in with the conversation.

Looking around the field, Wang Rui did not dare to underestimate anyone. Even Beidou Marie Wang Rui took her very seriously, thinking that this little girl was definitely an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years.

As for why...that's how TV dramas are played.

What else can he say? He just sits there in fear. Now that these big guys are here, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After witnessing the horror of ghosts, Wang Rui is now very grateful for their arrival, which prevents him from fighting alone.

"The birth of ghosts is very strange. Every living being has a soul. When a living being harbors resentment or obsession before death, there is a chance that it will transform into a ghost."

As an expert in dealing with ghosts, Araki Renku explained in the conference room the formation of ghosts: "Ghosts formed from resentment will be full of resentment towards humans."

"As for the ghosts that are transformed from obsessions, it depends on the situation. If it is a good obsession, then the ghost that is born will naturally be a helpful ghost. If it is an evil obsession, then it will definitely be a ghost full of murderous thoughts."

Having said that, Araki Renku sighed deeply and continued, "However, most of the ghosts in the world are full of evil and take pleasure in killing. There are only a few ghosts who are obsessed with good intentions."

Listening to the stories told by these senior extraordinary people, Wang Rui sometimes nodded and sometimes pondered. In short, he didn't understand a word they said.

But it’s better to pretend and avoid doing anything embarrassing.

After Araki Renku finished speaking, Tsuchimikado Kurosaku coughed lightly and continued, "Mr. Araki Renku and I have cleared out most of the ghosts in Sakura City. However, besides Sakura City, there are still many ghosts in other areas of Japan."

"That's not why we're gathered here today."

George shrugged and said, "We just want to know why the Japanese ghosts that have been silent for hundreds of years suddenly appear in Japan again."

"Also, are they limited to Japan? Will they spread to other parts of the world?"

Kill demons and maintain the balance between yin and yang?

Are you kidding me? Who would work so hard when they have nothing better to do?!

If George hadn't been worried that ghost issues might appear in other countries, he wouldn't have bothered to come here to investigate the truth about ghosts.

You Japanese people should deal with your own ghosts and monsters by yourselves, and do your own things by yourselves. That's what good children do.

"Sir, I want to emphasize that the ghosts today are not the same as those from hundreds of years ago."

Araki Renku interrupted and said seriously, "In the Edo period, ghosts only dared to act in secret and sneak around. They didn't dare to appear in public like they do today."

"Moreover, in comparison, the average strength of these ghosts today is far inferior to that of the ghosts in the Edo period. So far, I have not seen a ghost king level existence."

George was a little surprised when he heard what Araki Renkong said. Before he could say anything, Lin Chuo asked first, "Ghost King level? What is Ghost King level?"

"Powerful ghosts are no different from ordinary people. They can walk in the sun and are intimidating to ghosts below the level of Ghost King. Their thinking is almost the same as that of humans. Some powerful Ghost Kings can even transform a human into a powerful ghost."

Araki Renku replied, "Other ghosts are divided into levels according to their strength: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, S, R, and G.

Ghosts of Xin, Ren, and Gui levels have no intelligence, are muddleheaded, and are the weakest ghosts;

Ghosts of the Wu, Ji, and Geng levels possess a certain degree of intelligence and can kill, and are considered to be evil ghosts;

B, C, and D-level ghosts can already materialize and possess real bodies, but their disadvantage is that they cannot appear in sunlight.

A-level ghosts are only one step away from being ghost kings, but their strength is like a chasm... I am not very talented, I have killed three A-level ghosts in one go, but I have never killed a ghost king.'"

After saying that, Araki Renku took a deep breath and said seriously, "King of Demons level ghosts are already legendary ghosts. They can be seen everywhere in the Heian period. Most of the legendary One Hundred Demons Night Parade are King of Demons level, and the rest are at least Class A ghosts."

"Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, Gui..."

Lin Chuo murmured the ten levels. As a Taoist priest, she was very familiar with these ten words.

These are the Heavenly Stems among the Ten Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches. The Heavenly Stems are like the stems of a tree, strong and yang.

It’s interesting that Japan uses the Heavenly Stems, which represent the masculine, to categorize ghosts... But what do the twelve Earthly Branches represent?

Wait a minute, Araki Renku just mentioned that the Ghost King is no different from an ordinary person, can walk in the sun, and his thinking is almost the same as when he was a human...

Thinking of this, Lin Chuo raised his head and looked in the direction of Tsuchimikado Heishuo, his eyes gradually becoming solemn.

Could this successor of Tsuchimikado Shinto be a ghost king?

The successor of Tsuchimikado Shinto is actually the Demon King?

It is entirely possible that the Ghost King is hiding in the Onmyoji, so the Ghost King’s existence has never been found.

George suddenly said: “So, is there any way to distinguish the difference between the Ghost King and ordinary people?”

Araki Renku glanced at Tsuchimikado Heishaku, smiled slightly, and said, "Yes, the swords of our demon slayers are effective against demons. Even an ordinary blow will mobilize the demonic energy around the demon."

"Your Excellency Tsuchimikado, I'm sorry."
