Chapter 340 Tian Yuan "I said, why must...
"Why do we have to do this?" A young girl with a single black braid beneath the shade of a tree looked at her companions and sputtered, "Is this the sacrifice I have to make?"
"Pretending to be Riko's sister? Huh?" The black-haired girl, no, Geto Suguru looked at the sky and the earth in front of her, not daring to look at her peers, a sneer appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Jie, oh no, Jiezi, doesn't this suit you very well... Hahaha..." Gojo Satoru held back for a long time, but finally burst into laughter.
"Jiezi, you look a bit like a bad girl right now." The player also smiled cheerfully, but under Geto's glare, he said seriously, "Oh, Jiezi, have you forgotten? Our Star Plasma mission hasn't been completed yet."
"And the matter of that sharp-toothed brain."
"That's what you said, but you clearly want to see me laugh." Geto reached out with both hands, grabbed the tender flesh on Aurora's cheeks, and pulled. "Otherwise, you must have another way to make me become like Riko. Hmm?"
"Mmmmm, Jiezi, you have to believe me, I'm not... deliberately mumbling..." The player whose cheek was grabbed spoke a little unclearly, "And... there's also Wuzi..."
"That's right, and me too, Gojo Satoru—" Gojo Satoru, who was quite at ease, responded loudly, with only curiosity about women's clothing in her eyes.
"So disgusting..." Jia Ruxiao covered his face and looked at the eye-catching scene in front of him, not wanting to speak.
Geto Summer Oil: “…”
I feel like this experience has opened a switch that has led to some kind of enlightenment...
Exasperated by his best friend's abstract actions, Geto sighed and decided to let the matter go. "So, what are your thoughts now, Aurora?"
"Hmm...it's actually quite simple." The player sat down on the slope slightly above, propping up his chin and saying with interest, "All we have to do is free Ms. Riko and Ms. Misato from their astral plasma identities, and then we can go meet Mr. Tengen—"
"Because when we were together before, even though she said every day that she was very lucky to be able to merge with Master Tianyuan, she actually didn't want to do it in her heart, right?"
Gojo Satoru and Geto Gokuko nodded at the same time.
"That little brat didn't even have the slightest intention of hiding anything, or maybe her cover-up was just crude." Gojo Satoru spread his hands and said casually.
"Pay attention to your image, Miss Gojo Satoru." Ieiri Nio expressionlessly pulled up the skirt that was about to fly up because of Gojo Satoru's actions.
Miss Gojo Satoru shook her hands nonchalantly, but still bent her legs obediently after repeated corrections from her husband.
"That's true. Sister Riko's ultimate wish is to stay with her family forever." Geto Suguru nodded.
“That’s it!”
"Of course, if you want to hear Riko's thoughts in person, we can go to Panxing Church now to meet her... umm." Before the player could finish his words, Geto Go covered his mouth again.
"This kind of thing... absolutely not!" Geto Goto leaned close to Aurora's ear and said in a gloomy tone.
After the player finally broke free from Geto's restraint, he spoke up and stated the first, second, and third reasons for going to see Tengen in person.
Player: "Besides the problem of the astral plasma, there's also the problem of the barriers spread across Japan, and... that Sharptooth Brain."
"You mean, Lord Tianyuan might know the true identity of that sharp-toothed brain?" Gojo Satoru narrowed her eyes and asked subconsciously.
"It's not impossible..." Geto touched her chin thoughtfully. "Tengen-sama's barrier spans all of Japan. Logically, he should be able to clearly understand the flow of cursed energy in the areas it covers."
"Furthermore, Master Tianyuan has existed for over a thousand years. Furthermore, the curser's binding technique is extremely rare. Perhaps he knows more clues."
"Jie Zi is right!" The player cheered loudly for his friend's cleverness. "So let's go to Hongxing Palace and find Master Tianyuan!"
"...So, we're going back to Jujutsu High School now?" A hint of interest flashed in Ieru Niu's eyes as he stood by and watched. "Teacher Yagae will be very surprised to see us, right?"
"Hey, Noctua called me a lot last night, but I didn't answer any of them!" Gojo Satoru shook her phone. "Anyway, they just found out he's missing from Glass High School. No big deal."
"I was wondering why Mr. Yega called me in the middle of the night." Geto Gojo's hand on Gojo's shoulder was so strong that he staggered. "So it's you, Gojo."
"How can you blame me for this!" Gojo Satoru, who had suffered a loss, immediately turned over and pressed down Geto Go.
Player: "...Why do I feel like they're pulling my hair out?"
Jia Ru Ni: "...I agree."
…
…
In any case, they finally decided to go to Hongxing Palace to find Lord Tianyuan.
In order not to alert the enemy, in addition to Getsuko Getsuko who plays Tenriko, and the player who plays Kuroi Misato, Gojo Satoru and Ieiri Nio hold the companion cards given by the players and decide to stay in the high school and enter in another form.
After traveling day and night, by the time they arrived at the Jujutsu High School, it was already the next day, and there were only a few hours left before Lord Tianyuan could assimilate with the astral plasma.
**
Hongxing Palace, located in the basement of Tokyo Jujutsu High School, is the residence of Lord Tengen, the supreme and special existence in the world of Jujutsu.
Its entrance is built in many directions and is covered with multiple spells. Once you break in, even the undead will lose a layer of skin. Only sorcerers with special passes can accurately enter the depths of the core.
Today, as the assimilation of Lord Tianyuan is approaching, Hongxing Palace has specially opened an entrance, quietly waiting for the arrival of sorcerers who will take on the task of "bringing back the astral plasma."
"Please show us your mission credentials, Lord Gojo." The guards of Hongxing Palace, led by a man, said solemnly.
"Eh, this is really troublesome." Gojo Satoru complained after being transformed back to his original appearance by Aurora using a prop, but he still took out the well-preserved mission certificate and said, "This will be fine."
"Of course, please continue to move to the second level. Someone will reconfirm the identity of the astral plasma." The guard looked at the authentic mission certificate in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief. After returning the mission certificate to Lord Gojo, he signaled for them to continue walking deeper.
Do we still need to verify the authenticity of the astral plasma?
The Astral Plasma Body·Suyu Gyoko version raised her head slightly and exchanged glances with Gojo Satoru and Kuroi Misato·Aurora version.
Geto Summer Oil: "What should I do? Will it be exposed?"
Gojo Satoru: "What are you afraid of? At worst, I can just deny it! They don't know where Riko is anyway."
Player: "Don't worry, my disguise skills are top-notch!"
After Aurora's confirmation, Geto Suguru let out a breath and continued to lower his head.
Sure enough, the second level was passed smoothly. Although there was a slight setback in checking the technique, under Lord Gojo's very impatient expression, this process was omitted, and the disguised duo successfully passed!
But in the end, an accident still happened.
"Why won't you let me in?" Gojo Satoru raised his chin, his expression filled with dissatisfaction. "We've worked so hard to bring the Astral Pulse here, just to find out what happens next. And you can't even let me in?"
"Gojo-sama, please don't embarrass us." The leading guard frowned, looking very troubled. "What will happen next is that the astral plasma will assimilate with Master Tianyuan."
"But even we don't know what will happen specifically, so we can't answer your question."
"Then go ask Lady Tianyuan for me and see if she is willing to let me in."
"This..." The guard's expression became more embarrassed.
"Huh? This isn't an option?" Gojo Satoru's expression became even more ferocious.
Seeing the rising star in the world of sorcery before him, Gojo Satoru, who, together with the curse-manipulator Geto Suguru, had become the youngest and rarest special-grade sorcerer in the world of sorcery, and the designated next head of the Gojo family—the expression on Lord Gojo's face became increasingly worse, and the guard who was blocking his way couldn't help but sweat, but he still stood firm.
But fortunately, his companions who came closer and closer gave him some breathing space.
"Master Tianyuan said that Master Gojo can accompany the Star Plasma to the core of Hongxing Palace. In addition..."
After the guard on the scene announced the news, he rolled his eyes and looked at the black-haired maid who was inseparable from the Astral Plasma. "If it is the Astral Plasma's wish, the maid who came with her can also go together."
The Astral Plasma Body·Getsuko Suguru's expression froze, and he immediately realized that there was something wrong with this statement. He wanted to look up and ask, but was stopped by the black-haired maid beside him.
Kuroi Misato (Aurora Version) lowered her head, lowered her eyebrows, and spoke cautiously, "Thank you for your kindness, Master Tianyuan. I am willing to go with Miss Riko."
"...Yeah." Miss Riko hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Then please follow me." The guard nodded calmly, and after speaking a few words to his companions, he chose to walk in front and lead the way for them.
The guards who were left behind straightened their backs and held their weapons tightly, continuing their guard duties. As the most staunch supporters of Lord Tianyuan, they never interfered in other matters of the magic world, but were on the road to protect Lord Tianyuan at all times.
On the other side, Gojo Satoru, who found that he had entered so easily, walked behind the guard who led the way and blinked in disbelief.
After all, this is Hongxing Palace. Its core is the residence of Lord Tianyuan, the most mysterious person in the world of curse, and basically no one has ever been here.
He had just made that scene at the door just to give it a try, but he hadn't expected that he would actually let himself in...
Gojo Satoru winked at Geto Suguru and Aurora, and made a few gestures secretly.
The player also responded with a few actions, signaling him to pay more attention.
After an indeterminate amount of time, they finally arrived at a massive stone door. Intricate sigils were carved into the massive stone door, creating an invisible oppression around it.
"I can only send you here. When you push the door, please use pure cursed energy, otherwise it will trigger the stress response of the barrier."
"If Lord Tianyuan is willing to meet you, you will feel it the moment you step into the stone gate." The guard bowed deeply, took several steps back, and disappeared from the area.
"How mysterious... Is there a secret within this stone door?" The player looked at the stone door engraved with curse marks and tentatively reached out his hand, only to be repelled by the barrier. "It seems only a special person can push it open."
"Well, let me do it then." Gojo Satoru pushed open the door.
The moment they stepped through the stone gate, they felt a pull from all sides. It was as if they had entered another time and space. The first thing that caught their eye was the trees in the center. No, rather, the roots, formed by the roots rushing in from all directions, forming an even stronger giant.
And below, a figure was standing quietly at the center of the tree roots with its back to them.
As if she noticed the sudden movement not far away, she turned around, raised her hand slightly and said.
"Welcome, heir to the Six Eyes, manipulator of cursed spirits, and traveler through time and space..."
"I've been here, waiting for you for a long time."
