Suzaku Avenue.
Su Ziyu frowned as he looked at the Feitouman who was approaching him quickly and yelling at him. Without thinking, he kicked him out.
whoosh~!
I didn't expect this flying head beast to be so strong. Su Ziyu kicked it hundreds of meters away. It just dangled in the air for a while before recovering. There was a clear shoe print on its hideous face. It shouted angrily, "Who!? Who kicked me?"
More than a dozen flying head barbarians stopped in mid-air and turned to look at Su Ziyu not far away.
The scene looked a little scary.
"Do you need help?" Su Ziyu looked at the black and white ghost messenger in front of him, raised his eyebrows and asked.
Suzaku Avenue is indeed the place in Kyoto where ghosts are most likely to be encountered. Su Ziyu saw hundreds of ghosts with just a quick glance, and among them there were also some monsters in the form of animals.
"Thank you for your help!" Ghost Envoy Black looked at the Suzi fish in front of him and said, "But please don't kill them! They are still possessed by mortal bodies!"
It is said that Feitouman can possess a mortal's body and then run around with his head at night.
If this mortal does not return before dawn, he will die without a head.
"You're actually using other people's heads to race cars? That's possible!" Su Ziyu glanced around and quickly determined the location of those flying-head barbarians.
The Feitouman can only fly at low altitude. It is very fast, but it does not have very strong abilities.
Su Ziyu stood in place and stretched his muscles a little, then he disappeared instantly. With a muffled bang, cracks appeared on the bluestone ground. With the help of the burst of strength and the ability of telekinesis, Su Ziyu appeared directly behind a flying-headed barbarian, then reached out and grabbed its hair and slammed it to the ground.
boom!
He still had some measure of restraint in his attack. The flying head was hit so hard that it was dizzy and bruised, but the entire head was not directly smashed.
Then, Su Ziyu reached out and pinched the thin neck under its head, turned around and rushed towards another Flying Head Barbarian. Using the same method, after knocking the second Flying Head Barbarian unconscious, Su Ziyu simply tied their necks together into a bow, and held it in his hand like a balloon.
"not good!"
"There's a more ruthless one coming over here! Run!" Su Ziyu's move scared the flying barbarians, and they quickly scattered and ran away.
The ability to fly by telekinesis is very suitable for combat.
However, it is a bit troublesome to control, and a high degree of concentration is required. The Suzi fish itself has a strong jumping explosive ability, and with the ability of telekinesis flying, it can glide at low altitude and high speed in a short period of time. However, this tests one's own nerve reflex ability, and it may hit other things if it is not careful.
Although its speed is not as fast as the Guhuo Bird we encountered before, it is very easy to deal with these flying head barbarians who race with other people's heads in the middle of the night.
It only takes a moment.
Su Ziyu caught seven or eight flying-headed barbarians. He tied their necks together and threw them in front of the black and white ghost messenger.
With the help of Su Ziyu, the two ghost emissaries quickly captured the flying-headed barbarians. After being caught, the flying-headed barbarians looked dejected and kept begging for mercy: "We didn't hurt anyone! We didn't kill anyone!"
"We're just borrowing their heads for fun!"
"It will be returned before dawn!"
"real."
"We haven't harmed anyone!"
Bang bang bang.
The black and white ghosts in front of him beat these flying heads violently without saying a word. After beating them black and blue one by one, they said in a deep voice with a relieved expression: "Come back with us to explain to the judge!"
"Thank you for your help, sir." The black and white ghosts bowed to Su Ziyu and thanked him, then said, "The underworld is not peaceful recently. It would be better for you not to run around."
They recognized the fish.
I just didn’t expect that I would meet Su Ziyu again in the underworld today, having just seen it yesterday.
"Haha. Just passing by. Passing by." Su Ziyu said with a smile.
It seems that Ghost Kyoto is really unable to control these ghosts. Even Suzaku Avenue has become a place for ghosts to laugh and have fun.
The black and white ghosts used the soul-catching lock to hold more than a dozen flying-headed barbarians. After thanking them, they walked towards the Ghost Kyoto. In the direction of the palace, Su Ziyu could see a dark red fire cloud in the sky. If it went as expected, the ruler of the Ghost Kyoto, the Lord Yanmo mentioned by Qingxuandeng, lived there.
The territory of Fuso is very small, and the underworld here seems to be centered on Ghost Kyoto.
However, in Su Ziyu's current opinion, as long as it is out of the scope of Ghost Kyoto, the underworld has no control over other places. It is completely other demons and monsters that have occupied the mountain and are the kings.
This is somewhat similar to the world of the living. The current Fuso imperial court is extremely weak and the shogunate era is about to come.
In 935 and 939, Fuso had just experienced the Johei and Tenkei Rebellions. During this period, the imperial court was already somewhat powerless to suppress the rebellion and had to rely on the power of the samurai group. However, the Fuso royal family was still very capable of lingering, and the samurai group did not have the courage to overthrow the emperor for the time being.
"Master Su, please stay." Just as Su Ziyu was about to return to the world of the living, a cold female voice suddenly came.
Immediately following.
A woman in blood-red clothes appeared in front of him. She wore a pendant made of bones on her head and a sword that looked like it was forged from a human spine at her waist. She leaned slightly towards Su Ziyu and said, "Lord Yama invites you!"
"Please follow me."
Bone girl.
Su Ziyu saw her near Rashomon during the day, and she was guarding behind the collapsed Rashomon.
Does Yama want to see me?
It seemed like they all knew of my existence.
Su Ziyu's expression was a little hesitant, but then he quickly followed. He hadn't found any clues to the main quest in the past two days, and the ghosts he encountered didn't give any obvious clues. Maybe meeting Yan Mo in Ghost Kyoto would be rewarding.
"Please come this way!" The Bone Girl led the way, and the two of them ran straight to the location of the palace.
The imperial palace of Fuso was also modeled after Chang'an, but it looked much smaller.
There were some night patrols along the way, but they only patrolled inside the imperial city of Ghost Kyoto. There were not many monsters and ghosts to be seen here, as if the interior of Ghost Kyoto was still controlled by them.
——"Spiritual Vision!"
Su Ziyu couldn't help but want to die, so he activated his spiritual vision and looked up at the imperial city in front of him.
soon.
A hovering dragon appeared in his sight. The dragon's body was light yellow and looked a little hazy, as if it was extremely weak. It had no self-awareness, and was more like what the Chinese called the incarnation of dragon energy, that is, the dragon representing the destiny of the Fuso court.
Unfortunately, this dragon is already on its last legs.
Its body is limited to the scope of the Imperial City and radiates to the outskirts of Ghost Kyoto at most, but it has no effect on places outside Kyoto.
This meant that the power of the mortal court had weakened to the point where it was gradually unable to control places other than Kyoto.
——"Patrol at night but not during the day."
——"Patrol during the day but not at night."
Most of the ghost officers near the imperial city patrol at night. Most of them are ghosts of warriors. When they see Gu Nu and Su Ziyu, they avoid them.
“Meow~!”
A black shadow fell from the wall, and then a cat demon with two tails appeared in front of him.
The cat demon was wearing a black and red kimono. After landing, he touched his beard with his hand, looked at the bone girl in front of him and asked, "Who is he?"
"Lord Yan Mo wants to see him." The bone girl said expressionlessly: "Nine-life cat! Get out of the way!"
Another powerful monster.
Her strength was probably about the same as the three-tailed fox in the Green Bamboo Forest, but Su Ziyu saw a sign on her waist with the words "Soul Guiding" written on it.
"Meow! Okay." The cat demon looked at Su Ziyu curiously, then turned around and made way.
As the two people passed by each other, the cat demon suddenly said, "Bone Girl! I caught a lot of wandering souls today! Soon I will surpass you!"
After saying that, she leaped up and disappeared from sight. Cats have great talents, and they look pretty powerful when they turn into monsters.
In front of a palace.
The bone girl stopped and said softly, "Lord Yan Mo, the people have been brought here."
Creak.
The heavy door opened, and a slightly lazy female voice came from inside: "Come in."
"Bone Girl. You can leave now."
Two maids wearing ghost masks were standing at the door. Su Ziyu glanced at the ghost girl next to him, took a deep breath, and walked into the hall in front of him.
Green ghost lights lit up on both sides of the palace.
After Su Ziyu walked into the hall and looked up, he saw a woman sitting on a throne. She was surrounded by mist and her face could not be seen clearly. All he could see was a white-haired judge holding a soul-collecting pen next to her.
Wisps of will-o'-the-wisp fire floated in the air.
Su Ziyu felt a pair of sharp eyes falling on him, and then the lazy female voice sounded again: "You smell like the underworld."
"Are you a resurrected person?"
Not quite understanding, Su Ziyu simply didn't answer and just moved his feet slightly.
There was a brief moment of dead silence.
Then the lazy female voice sounded again, with a tone that seemed to be a little dissatisfied: "As a living person, you have trespassed into the underworld twice. Do you know your crime?"
Su Ziyu shook his head upon hearing this and said, "The gates of hell are wide open. I just entered here by accident."
The questioning voice stopped abruptly.
After a moment, the female voice sounded again: "Forget it. I will not hold you responsible."
"Now is the time to use people. I would like to ask you, are you willing to work for the underworld?"
"I will naturally not be stingy with my rewards."
Is this an attempt to recruit me?
Su Ziyu looked ahead curiously, as if trying to penetrate the fog, and asked, "Now the gates of hell are wide open, and you can encounter ghosts even during the day."
"What happened in Hades? Why did Rashomon collapse?"
A cold wind blew by.
After a moment of silence, a majestic female voice came: "It's just some evil spirits causing trouble."
"I will naturally deal with them."
"Are you willing to be the soul guide of the underworld? Help me clean up this mess in the underworld?"
The words fell.
The data flow in Su Ziyu's brain suddenly changed, and a large amount of data emerged in the next second.
"Scan analysis completed!"
"Data calculation completed!"
"Transmitting..."
"Current plane: Medieval civilization."
"Civilization level: Level 1."
"Energy level: Level 3."
"Pollution level: medium."
"Alarm! Alarm!"
"The current world has overlapping planes!... Unknown reasons have caused chaos between the underworld and the world of the living!..."
"Recording plane coordinates!... Joining the correction sequence!... Activating the autonomous response mode of the Spacetime Supervisor System!..."
"Post the mission."
"Mission objective: Reorganize the realm of yin and yang, and reshape the way of reincarnation."
"Mission Reward: Upgraded authority level! Expanded space and enhanced! Law domain - space! Law domain - death!"
Something is wrong! ?
Why is the triggered main quest so difficult?
Isn’t this reward too generous?
The domain is a powerful force that can only be mastered by legendary levels, and the rewards for this main quest are actually the space domain and the death domain.
There is no such thing as a free lunch.
The reward for this main quest is so high, so the difficulty must be extremely high!
There must be something I don't know.
Su Ziyu pondered for a moment, then looked up at the front of the hall and said in a deep voice: "Okay."
"Good." A wooden sign with the word 'Soul Guiding' engraved on it flew towards them.
Then, the lazy female voice sounded: "This is the soul-guiding card of the underworld. Take it. From now on, you can freely enter and exit the Yin and Yang worlds."
"For the time being, you should act together with the Black and White Ghost Envoy."
"The judge will naturally tell you what your mission is."
"Back off."
Su Ziyu took a deep look at the throne shrouded in clouds and mist, then turned and left the hall.
A moment later.
The mist on the throne dissipated, and a young girl about seven or eight years old jumped down. She looked delicate and clever, wearing a light red dress and a crescent-shaped pendant on her head. She pouted her lips and looked at the white-haired judge beside her with dissatisfaction, saying, "When will my elder sister come back?"
"I can't pretend anymore!"
Hearing her words, the white-haired judge next to her couldn't help but let out a bitter smile and whispered, "Yue Ji, hold on a little longer."
"Lord Yan Mo should be back soon."
Although he said this, the white-haired judge in front of him couldn't help but reveal a trace of worry on his face.
Rashomon collapsed.
Ghost Kyoto is in chaos.
Nowadays, the underworld is overrun with ghosts, and the most feared thing is that they will run to the world of the living and cause chaos. Now the situation in the underworld is maintained entirely by the white-haired judge in front of him. It's just that other people don't know the news of Yama's disappearance yet, otherwise the situation in the underworld may be even more chaotic than it is now.
"What's wrong with this Yama? Why doesn't he even want to show up?" Su Ziyu stood outside the hall with a frown on his face.
He played with the soul-calling card in his hand and walked towards the outside of the imperial city.
Meow.
Accompanied by a cat's cry, a black shadow suddenly flashed by and snatched the soul-guiding token directly from his hand.
