Just when the Kanda Myojin Shrine was transformed into a battlefield, and the Hyakuki and the Onmyojis entered into a fierce battle, deep in the shrine, underground behind the sacrificial hall, a ceremony that was unknown but could be recorded in history was about to be held.
Here, there is a basement.
The basement is as spacious as a shrine. There is a bonfire burning inside, lighting up the entire space. You can see that the walls here are lined with pillars at equal intervals, and about half of the height is plastered with cement. It is exposed soil or rock, and there are also several beams on the ceiling. The whole building is like a cave.
However, in the center of this vast basement, there is an altar.
It was a stone platform surrounded by a torii gate.
There is a black torii gate in the north, a blue torii gate in the east, a red torii gate in the south, and a white torii gate in the west. The altar is composed of multiple pedestals, on which a variety of delicacies are worshiped. Taiko drums, conch shells, and coins are also arranged. There are silks, Riduo, Yueduo and other sacrificial vessels and spell tools. There are also bonfires burning in the four corners of the stone platform, making the flames flicker.
If someone from the Tsuchimikado family were here and saw this altar, they would recognize it instantly.
Because this altar is almost exactly the same as the Temple of Heaven in the "Taishan Fujun Sacrifice".
But it is natural to say that it is natural.
The incantation ritual named "Tencao Jifu Festival" is originally an advanced version of "Taishan Fujun Festival", and its effect can be regarded as an enhanced version of "Taishan Fujun Festival". In this case, the altar used by both is the same. Isn't it just natural
Of course, in order for the "Tenso Jifu Festival" to be successful, it is not enough to have an altar of the size of the "Taishanfu Jun Festival".
Therefore, Genji Kurahashi worked hard to build the layout of the "Early Spiritual Disaster Detection Network" and turned the entire Tokyo into an altar.
now...
"Get ready, the time has come."
In front of the altar, Genji Kurahashi announced in a deep voice.
Beside him, Yashamaru and Spidermaru, both Yase boys, also appeared. Their expressions were both unprecedentedly serious and extremely exciting, making their hands tremble.
In front of the two of them, Souma Takiko stood there.
A closer look revealed that Taiko was actually wearing a miko's costume, and it was also a black miko uniform, which completely changed the impression she usually gave when she wore a white uniform. The noble and awe-inspiring temperament of a prince adds a coquettish elegance.
Duoguizi just raised his head and looked at the altar in front of him.
Everyone's eyes were also focused on him, as if they were on a pilgrimage.
Next, the shrine maiden will offer herself as a sacrifice to the gods, and send down the ancestral god, Taira Shomon.
The Souma family's long-cherished wish for thousands of years and the Kurahashi family's hopes will be pinned on him.
Regarding this...
"In the end, there was still no way to get Qiu Guan to come over."
Duoruizi is like spitting out his last nostalgia, so regretful.
But upon closer inspection, the girl's face no longer had the obvious emotional ups and downs as before. It was as expressionless as an optimistic person who had abandoned humanity.
However, waves of refreshing aura are pulsating on the body of such a multi-track man.
This is proof that Duoruizi has finally entered the state of trance, connecting and communicating with God.
In this way, you are ready.
The current multi-track is equivalent to a state where a part of God has been lodged in the body. It is normal for people to feel the need to make a pilgrimage.
Seeing his master's state, Yashamaru suppressed his inner excitement and spoke to Takako in a more respectful tone than usual.
"What happened to Tsuchimikado Akikan is indeed regrettable, but there is no need to worry, princess. As long as you can bring down Taira Shomon and become a god, then even that Lord will no longer ignore you."
Hearing this, a trace of human emotion appeared in Duogui's eyes, and he turned to Yashamaru.
"Is it true?" Duoguizi asked, "As long as I successfully seduce the spirit, will Qiuguan listen to me?"
"Of course." The smile on Yashamaru's face did not diminish and he said: "The one who was able to successfully resurrect Hyakki Yakou and convert many demons and monsters from myths and legends into shikigami, and completed the miracle of subjugation one step ahead of us. Existence is in a completely different realm and realm than we are. As a person who has successfully coexisted with God, if we cannot be in the same position as Him, how can we understand the scene in His eyes, talk to Him, and converse with Him?”
Yashamaru said this.
In fact, Yashamaru did think so.
He felt that Luo Zhen must be at a level different from ordinary people in the world, standing in a realm that he could not understand, and seeing scenes that others could never see.
If you want to have an equal dialogue with the other party and understand each other, you must stand on the same level as the other party.
Yashamaru longed for this, wanting to have a glimpse of Luo Zhen's height and see the scene Luo Zhen saw.
therefore...
"If I want to reach a consensus and understand each other with that adult, it will only be possible if the princess also successfully seduces the spirit and reaches where he is."
Yashamaru enthusiastically stated his theory.
"is that so?"
Dorail murmured and looked at Spider Ball.
Spider Ball immediately responded respectfully.
"I think that's right, princess."
Spider-Man answered like this, and he did think so, and he was not deliberately trying to coax Duoluozi.
Both Yashamaru and Spidermaru have different understandings from modern onmyojis. Instead, like the ancient onmyojis, they follow both the Tao of yin and yang and the principles of the five elements. They believe that only by communicating with gods can one be an onmyoji. responsibilities and missions, and an almost blind conservatism regarding spirituality and spiritual status.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of this that they can become the guardians of the Soma family's direct bloodline that has been passed down for thousands of years, and become the Yase boy who serves God, right
Even Genji Kurahashi said so.
"For the world of magic, the princess is a miracle, and Tsuchimikado Akikan is also a miracle. If the princess can successfully seize the gods and explore the highest realm and field of magic together with Tsuchimikado Akikan, she must be an Onmyoji An important milestone for us to enter the world stage.”
Genji Kurahashi always looks at everything from the perspective of the magic world. For this purpose, he can use Luo Zhen, and he can even put Luo Zhen on the altar, without any room for selfishness or grudges to intervene.
"I feel relieved when I hear you say that."
Duoluozi nodded reassuringly, and his tone became paranoid.
"The only one who can go hand in hand with me is Qiuguan."
"Qiuguan and I are the only ones who can understand the realm of gods."
"In order to stand on the same level as Qiuguan, this divine seance must be successful."
With this declaration, Taikoko walked towards the altar, picked up the round bamboo box placed in the center of the pedestal, opened the lid, and took out the folded Japanese paper placed inside.
That is the capital document recording the sacrificial rites.
"Next, I will hold the "Tenso Jifu Festival" ceremony and bring down the gods."
Multi-track sounds filled the room.
"Woo!"
Spider Ball picked up the conch shell and blew it.
"Boom!"
Yashamaru also picked up the drum stick and beat the taiko drum.
"finally... "
There was a hint of excitement in Kurahashi Genji's eyes.
Then...
"——The head of the Soma family, Souma Doguizi, would like to report this to General Zu Lingping——"
The multi-track began to chant the incantation.
At this point, the seance ceremony begins.
