The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

Chapter 287 The Fate of the Witch and the Ghost

"Boom!!!"

Five meteorites, with unparalleled momentum, crashed to the ground.

Although the meteorite, which originally had a diameter of nearly 100 meters, had shrunk by more than half due to friction and burning in the atmosphere, the impact it caused was still extremely terrifying.

In an instant, the earth trembled, dust flew, and five impacts occurred almost in no particular order. Strong shock waves spread outward rapidly with the five meteorites as the center.

This powerful force swept through like a storm, causing strong winds and huge waves wherever it went.

And the ghost army near the meteorite landing point, faced with such a terrifying impact, was wiped out almost in an instant.

Fortunately, the Temple of the Witch Goddess has a protective barrier that has been continuously blessed by successive witches, and the target of Tianai Zhenxing is only the ghost army on the periphery. Otherwise, the Temple of the Witch Goddess would probably be shattered by this devastating blow, and like the ghost army, it would go directly to destruction.

.........

.........

.........

Qing Si looked at the ruins caused by the Tianai Zhenxing in front of him and nodded slightly with satisfaction. The power of this move did not disappoint him. Just five small-scale meteorites that were just a trial were able to cause such damage. So, if he used his full strength, the scene would be something that even Qing Si could not imagine.

I'm afraid that even the ninja world can't bear it!

It is no wonder that the branch of the Otsutsuki clan on the moon threatened to destroy the ninja world. If the power of the Samsara Eye was really used to pull the moon down, then the planet where the ninja world was located would probably be smashed to pieces.

Tian Gang followed behind Qing Si woodenly. At this moment, he had not yet recovered from the shock of most of the ghost army being wiped out in one blow.

Under this extremely terrifying blow that could be called a natural disaster, the ghost legions that had surrounded the Witch Goddess Temple and claimed to be unkillable were turned into ashes one after another. Almost 70% to 80% of them were wiped out. Even if they had the power of monsters, they could no longer be resurrected.

The surviving ghost legions and the undead ninja legions, with only a few big cats and small cats left, could no longer stop Seiji and Takaoka's progress.

"Mr. Mizukage, are you the god who came to save the Land of Demons...?" After coming back to his senses, Tanaka looked at Kiyoshi who continued to walk slowly in front of him without any pause, and he couldn't help but have the thought that he had mistaken Kiyoshi for a god.

Although the Demon Country believes in the shrine maidens, it does not prevent Tanaka from worshipping the god Seiji at this time. Moreover, Tanaka's belief in the shrine maidens has also shown a slight wavering. After all, the shrine maidens have only sealed the rebellious monsters many times in history, and Seiji, the Fourth Mizukage, has displayed godly power in front of him!

However, it is actually true to say this. For ordinary humans, the Otsutsuki clan, in all aspects, is worthy of the title of "God".

-----------------

On the other side, Huang Quan, who had the power of monsters in his body, crawled out from under the cracked ground in a very embarrassed manner. If it weren't for the monsters in his body and he was not at the center of the meteorite fall, he would never have been able to survive the attack just now, not even if he had monsters in his body!

At this moment, Huang Quan and the monsters in his body all had confused minds, and were in a daze...!

Who am I, where am I, what am I doing...!

They were completely stunned by Qingsi's Heavenly Star Shock...!

Moreover, the Ghost Army and the Undead Ninja Army that they had worked so hard to accumulate were wiped out in a matter of seconds...!

After a long while, just when Qingsi and Tiangang walked into the witch goddess temple, Huang Quan and the monsters in his body recovered from the chaotic state.

After taking a deep look at Qingsi's back as he walked into the Temple of the Goddess of Witches, Huang Quan retreated dejectedly with a heart full of anger and the promise of Wuliang that he would give him more power to create more ghost armies and undead ninja armies.

At this time, Qing Si also seemed to have sensed something, but he did not turn back, but continued to walk towards the depths of the Witch Goddess Temple.

It's just a little mouse!

.........

.........

.........

Tian Gang and the other guards gathered together and excitedly discussed their feelings about surviving the disaster and the miraculous meteorite fall. They shared their experiences and feelings with each other and were extremely shocked and moved by what had just happened.

When Tanaka recounted everything he had witnessed, all the shrine maidens and guards fell silent. Then they looked at Kiyoshi's receding back with expressions of surprise and admiration, and saluted his back with reverence and gratitude.

-----------------

Following the direction indicated by Tiangang, Qingsi came to the center of the shrine of the goddess of shrines, where he met the contemporary shrine maiden of the Land of Demons, Miroku.

And when Maitreya saw Qingsi, she couldn't help but be shocked. In the prophetic picture that she received from the unknown, the white figure exuding a noble aura that seemed to be shrouded in a thick fog suddenly became clear. Moreover, as the supreme ruler of the Ghost Kingdom, she also recognized Qingsi's identity.

"The Fourth Mizukage...Otsutsuki Seiji!" Miroku murmured, his eyes revealing unspeakable curiosity. This Fourth Mizukage was the one who completely destroyed the monsters and changed her prophecy!

Miroku slowly stood up and walked towards Qingsi. This man will help her completely end the fate between the witch and the monsters that has been entangled for nearly a thousand years!

Yes, this is a secret that has never been known to anyone else, a secret that has only been passed down orally through generations of witches!

The witch who represents justice and the monster who represents evil are originally one and the same, and the power between the two sides is exactly the same at the initial moment of the split. It can be said that neither can do anything to the other.

However, the witch who inherited "good" is still a mortal with a limited lifespan, while the monster who inherited "evil" has the characteristic of immortality!

However, this does not mean that the witch is in a weak position between the two. On the contrary, the power held by the witch can be passed down from generation to generation in a unique way, and in the process, it can continue to grow!

Therefore, as time passed, the power of the witch gradually overwhelmed the monsters.

However, monsters are immortal after all, and the witches, as the other side of the monsters, do not have the ability to completely kill the monsters. Therefore, the witches of all generations can only choose to seal the monsters.

Thus, a tug-of-war began between the witch and the monsters, which lasted for nearly a thousand years.

In the process, the monster gradually became smarter. From the initial single-handed fight, it slowly learned to recruit subordinates and bestow its power on those humans who were bewitched by it. It created countless ghost legions and undead ninja legions to fight for it and weaken the power of the witch.

For the shrine maidens, their real strength lies in their powerful sealing ability. When it comes to fighting, the shrine maidens are not actually very good at it. Therefore, there is a story about the previous generation of shrine maidens, Miroku's mother, who, with the cooperation of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, finally succeeded in sealing up the monster that broke the seal and was about to wreak havoc in the ninja world again.

Moreover, with the assistance of Hashirama Senju, Miroku's mother adopted a completely different sealing method for the first time, which was to seal the body and soul of the monster separately in two different places, minimizing the possibility of the monster breaking the seal again.

Finally, the soul of Wuliang was sealed by Maitreya's mother in an underground palace in the southern part of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and the body of Wuliang was sealed in a shrine in the Linguo Swamp Kingdom of the Kingdom of Ghosts.

.........

.........

.........

Unfortunately, human hearts are hard to predict.

Maitreya's mother never imagined that in later generations there would be a traitor named Huang Quan who sold her soul to the monster, accepted the monster's soul into her body, and released the monster's soul from the seal of the underground palace.

Hence, the monsters are causing trouble this time.

However, the monster was unwilling to be re-sealed by the witch every time it broke the seal, so this time, it changed its strategy.

In order not to arouse the vigilance and attention of the shrine maiden, the ghost did not rush to retrieve its body sealed in another place, but its soul lodged in Huangquan's body, giving it power. It stockpiled a large number of ghost armies and undead ninja armies at one time, and then suddenly launched an attack, wanting to directly capture the Ghost Kingdom in a short period of time, and use the "human wave tactics" to consume the foundation left by the shrine maidens of all generations, and finally achieve the goal of devouring the contemporary shrine maidens.

Once the monster successfully devours the shrine maiden, there will no longer be any shrine maiden lineage in the ninja world that can restrain it. Moreover, the power that the shrine maiden lineage has gained through inheritance from generation to generation will become nutrients for its strength enhancement, raising its strength to a level that it itself can hardly imagine. It will even be possible for it to become invincible in the ninja world.

At least, that's what the monster thinks.

So for the witch and the monster, who were originally two sides of the same coin, it is of course possible for one of them to devour the other. However, in the nearly thousand years of fighting between the two sides, this has never been achieved.

And this is the fate that has been entangled between the witch and the monsters for thousands of years!

Although what Maitreya saw in his prophecy was that the monster was killed by Qingsi instead of being devoured by her, it didn't matter to the witches who were calm and peaceful.

As a lineage of shrine maidens that has been passed down for thousands of years, they don't actually care whether they can devour monsters and gain their power. All they want is to protect the ninja world from the scourge of monsters!

Of course, it would be best if the monsters could be eliminated, ending the thousand-year-long entanglement between the witch and the monsters!

-----------------

Coming in front of Qingsi, Miroku bowed deeply to him solemnly, "Mr. Mizukage! Thank you for your help! On behalf of all the people of the Land of Demons, I would like to express my sincere gratitude!!"

"Your Excellency the Miko, you are too polite. The goal of the monsters is to wreak havoc on the entire ninja world, and the Hidden Mist Village should do its part to achieve this!" Qingsi accepted Miroku's bow calmly. After all, he truly and temporarily alleviated the current predicament of the Demon Kingdom. Although the monsters have not been completely eliminated, they will not be able to cause any waves in a short period of time.

"That's true, but if it weren't for the quick support from Lord Mizukage, the Temple of the Goddess of Witches might not have been able to hold out for a few more days!" Miroku stood up and smiled bitterly. Indeed, she had misjudged the time. She didn't expect that Wuliang had assembled such a large ghost army, and their number was growing every moment. If it weren't for Qingsi arriving so many days in advance, if they really had to wait for the support from other ninja villages to arrive, I'm afraid there would be nothing left in the Kingdom of Demons.

It can be said that this rebellion of monsters really caught the Ghost Kingdom off guard, and the priestess Maitreya, as the supreme ruler of the Ghost Kingdom and also the object of faith of the Ghost Kingdom, failed to protect any of her people.

Qingsi did not respond. Looking at Miroku, whose face was filled with pain, he fell into silence for a while. He and Miroku were not familiar with each other. It was just their first meeting. There were some things that he was not comfortable saying directly.

After a long while, Miroku slowly calmed down his surging emotions. After taking a deep breath, he showed Qingsi an awkward and apologetic smile, "Sorry! Mr. Mizukage! I'm sorry to have embarrassed you..."

"It's okay!" Qingsi waved his hand. He could understand Miroku's behavior. If any enemy dared to attack the Water Country and the Hidden Mist Village, he would probably not feel any better.

.........

.........

.........

After introducing and communicating with Qing Si about the ghosts, Miroku suddenly changed the subject, "Mister Mizukage! The miko lineage has the ability to predict future events, and in the prophecy I made not long ago, I saw a scene where you completely destroyed the ghosts...!"

"Oh? Can you tell me in detail...!" Qingsi became interested instantly when he heard this. He knew that the shrine maiden lineage had this kind of time-related ability, but he didn't know much about it.
