blow your face

The peak of the naginata split the sky like a flying swallow.

Of course it's a stab at the back.However, a direct hit would be a big deal.Tsuchimikado Harutora swung the lower end of the tin staff, and deftly deflected the attacking sword.

Flash left and right quickly, straighten your breath, and continuously improve your spiritual power.The pentagram pattern under the left eye becomes hot in response to the circulation of spiritual power.Feeling the scorching heat, Harutora Tsuchimikado focused his attention on the shikigami in front of him.

Onmyodo-made guardian "ModelG2 Yasha", unique name "Black Maple".

This is a custom shikigami with naginata operation options added to the default hand-to-hand combat technique.Originally, it was not an opponent that the outsider Han Tu Yumen Harutora could deal with.

However, the tin stick in Tsuchimikado Harutora's hand was a special magic tool made by the Banren Dayujin.At the cost of consuming a lot of spiritual power, you can freely transform your spiritual power into a magic blade or a shield to fight.For Harutora, who is not proficient in spells but has strong spiritual power, it is both an ideal weapon and an ideal armor.As long as you have this tin rod, even if you can't guarantee victory, you can at least "fight".

Kurokaede's naginata intertwined with Tsuchimikado Harutora's tin staff.Activated the eyes of the damn Tsuchimikado Harutora, you can "visually see" the surrounding aura vortex.You can also see Hei Feng's mantra, the spiritual energy she radiates, and the flow of mantra that drags her tail along the track of the tin rod.

The mantra and the mantra are fully mixed, and the hot air and cold air and the unknown spiritual wind are blowing fiercely.The body—the astral body—was almost baked.On the other hand, as a Shikigami, Hei Feng didn't care about the surrounding Reiatsu.Consistent with the impression of a humanoid machine from its appearance, it continues to attack Harutora Tsuchimikado.

Chance! !

When this thought crossed Chunhu's mind, as if he had read through his thinking, a small shadow flashed behind Hei Feng.

is a child.And it was a young girl who seemed to be less than ten years old.Wearing water dry and finger piercing.The neat face is like an Ichimatsu doll, and the big round eyes are bright blue.Moreover, the doll has pointed triangular ears protruding from its head and a leaf-shaped tail.

This is not a human being but a shikigami.Tsuchimikado Harutora's protector form - Sora.

"Drink ah ah ah!"

At the same time that the invisibility technique was removed and materialized, the air strike hit Kuro Maple's rear.Wielding his favorite dagger to "dash and cut", he slashed at Hei Feng's feet.Unexpectedly, Hei Feng—and at the same time, his leading classmate Kyoko Kurahashi—couldn’t react to the surprise attack on the sky.Hei Feng, who was under attack, was stunned for a while, and the clutter spread all over his body, and he stopped for a moment.

"middle!"

Tsuchimikado Harutora's tin stick came at the sound and hit Heifeng.Kyoko Kurahashi, who was operating shikigami in the distance, frowned, and said "no" unwillingly.

"Ha, ha ha! How? Was it my complete victory just now?"

"Really, really beautiful, Mr. Chunhu! Really good, good skills—!" The young girl Linghu stammered in praise.

"You too, the timing is just right, Sora. Our cooperation should be much smoother!"

"This, this, this, such appreciation! Words, exaggerations - thank you so much!"

Harutora Tsuchimikado, who was smiling happily, and Sora, who was blushing when his master praised him.Although it is shy, its tail wags happily like a puppy.Kyoko Kurahashi, who was defeated, let out an unhappy "hum", and released Hei Feng's materialization.

"...As I said earlier, Black Maple originally made adjustments based on the premise of working together with White Sakura. If you fight alone, you can't display your true strength. Don't get me wrong on this point."

Kurahashi Kyoko reminded Tsuchimikado Harutora in a strong tone.

Chestnut-colored hair was brushed up and let down.Long lashes frame clear eyes.Although competitive, she is still a girl with a cute face.Even in uniform, the slender hands and feet and the well-proportioned figure are still undisguised.

"And don't forget that although he can beat my Black Maple, he is still not vulnerable to the shikigami of Shanghua Kaiyuan Qingyue." Kyoko Kurahashi said angrily. "The premise is that someone is not waterproof."

"Well... I can't control the monster shikigami like Ootengu well..." Kakaiin Qingyue and Tsuchimikado Natsume sat on the audience stage together, raised their hands to cover their lips with a fan.

"Ah. I know. I haven't gotten carried away to that extent yet." Tsuchimikado Harutora smiled wryly.

"...It's good to know." Kurahashi Kyoko looked away dissatisfied.

Tsuchimikado Harutora and his entourage are located in the curse training ground under the school building.The architectural style is similar to that of a gymnasium, and the space surrounding the arena opens up an enchantment.

Since Tsuchimikado Harutora entered the school—to be precise, since he immediately fought against the Luminous Believers right after entering the school—he has regularly held simulated battles with Kyoko Kurahashi's shikigami here.The reason, of course, is to deal with the intervention of night light believers.Specifically, it is to accumulate experience in a form close to actual combat, so as to become familiar with the use of spell power and spell warfare.

Long ago, there were "rumors" haunting Tsuchimikado Natsume.That is, the rumor of the reincarnation of Tsuchimikado Yeguang, the chief culprit of the spiritual disaster that brought unprecedented spiritual disasters to Tokyo as the founder of modern Onmyoji.Therefore, Tsuchimikado Natsume is always harassed by some radical believers of the blind believer Yeguang.

On the other hand, Tsuchimodo Harutora follows the "rules" of the branch family and serves beside him as the main clan's Natsume shikigami.Because of this, in order to protect his master Natsume, he has to train himself as much as possible like this.

"What about Natsume? In this way, the actual combat aspect of the promotion exam is also stable, right?"

Harutora looked up from the arena to the auditorium, and spoke to Natsume who had been watching the competition.

At this moment, Natsume snorted artificially through his nose,

"Stupid Tiger. How could a test like 'the caster and the shikigami fight directly' appear in the upgrade test?"

"That's true...but I think I'm starting to get familiar with the use of spell power."

"The conversion from spiritual power to mantra power is not dependent on that tin rod in the end. You are not allowed to bring such a thing during the exam!"

Tsuchimikado Natsume replied harshly to Harutora's complacent words with an expression like he had nothing to do with him.

"Anyway, let's work hard for tomorrow's exam." Huakaiyuan Qingyue still smiled and acted as a pacifier for everyone every day.

"The only one who has to work hard is Harutora, you and Natsume don't need to take the exam." A Dao Dong'er said with a smile while holding his chin.

Tsuchimikado Natsume and Hanakain Aotsuki did not take the exam because Tsuchimikado Natsume has a secret weapon, the active Hokuto, and Kakaiin Aotsuki has one of the three most "evil" monsters in Japanese legend Atagoyama The big tengu is his guardian shikigami.

Beidou is a dragon.It is a divine beast that has served the head of the famous Tumimon family since ancient times.As long as you use Hokuto's Reiatsu, you can forcibly "break up" the spiritual disasters at the Phase 1 level, and it goes without saying that Hanakaiin Qingyue possesses Yokai Shikigami.Therefore, although Tsuchimikado Natsume and Hanakaiin Qingyue will also appear in the exam, they will try to stay behind as much as possible-this is the explanation of Principal Kurahashi.

"Very good. Not bad. Work harder!"

In response to Kurahashi Kyoko's cheering voice, the whole class responded with a loud "Oh!"Needless to say the same goes for Harutora Tsuchimikado.Beside Tsuchimikado Haru's tiger's feet, Sora was holding a "Tampoku", panting heavily, and took a stance.

This is a corner of Shibuya.The juku students of Tsuchimikado Harutora's class gathered in an open space that connected the sidewalk and the lobby of the office building, covered with floor tiles, like a small square.The upgrade exam is in full swing.

A suspected spiritual disaster occurred in the central area of ​​the small square.The aura is extremely cloudy, like a heavy gas—but it never spreads—it settles on the floor tiles.

At this point, it can no longer be called spiritual energy, but miasma.It's like a pile of invisible bonfires are lit, even if you leave a distance, you still have the illusion of being burned.Although there is no physical harm, the spiritual harm suffered by the human body and the influence on the heart cannot be underestimated.

The procedure for spiritual catastrophe cleansing has to be formulated on a case-by-case basis, but the basic process remains the same.First of all, it is necessary to isolate the spiritual disaster with an enchantment and restrain its damage to the surrounding area.On top of this, it is necessary to analyze the deviation of the aura, or to guide and correct it, or to suppress it with a more powerful mantra to make it "dissipate".

Tsuchimikado Harutora's class is divided into two teams, one team opens the barrier to isolate the spiritual disaster, and the other team casts the necessary spells to correct the direction.

The former has Kyoko Kurahashi and Touji Ato, while the latter has Tsuchimikado Harutora and Momoe Tenma.Tsuchimikado Natsume and Hanakaiin Qingyue stayed away from their classmates together, beside the invigilating lecturers, different from Hanakaiin Qingyue's leisurely, Tsuchimikado Natsume watched the exam anxiously.

In a spiritual disaster, the longer a person has been in contact with spiritual energy, the more likely it is to be affected.It is already quite difficult to keep calm under the attack of miasma.Kyoko Kurahashi, whose strength is second only to Natsume Tsuchimikado and Qingyue Hanakaiin, can easily maintain the barrier. If she is not as capable as her, she will not be able to face the spiritual disaster for a long time while maintaining the barrier.

"Are you okay, Dong'er? Have you ever been wounded in a spiritual disaster?"

Kyoko Kurahashi took the lead in maintaining the barrier, while carefully observing the situation of Toji Toji beside her.

A Dao Dong'er's complexion was very bad.

However, his gaze was fixed on Reima.There was no wavering in his expression.

"...Aah."

He replied, smiling broadly.

"No problem. Control is perfect. Can play for a while."

Kyoko Canghashi interpreted A Dao Donger's words as "able to control the barrier".So he joked with a smile: "It's me who is controlling, right?"

The team maintaining the barrier formed a circle around the spiritual disaster.Everyone spreads a barrier around themselves, and Kyoko connects them into a complete barrier.

On the other hand, the team that corrected the direction and actually carried out the cleansing went into the inside of the barrier to cast spiritual power on the spiritual disaster.Some use family spells, and some use nine-character seals.Each of them is carrying out spiritual calamity washing with the method they are best at.

Seemingly unable to stand by and watch any longer, Tsuchimikado Natsume asked the invigilator.The lecturers were flirting with each other while covering up wry smiles.

"Have confidence in Harutora-kun, Natsume-kun, I hope you can trust him a bit more than him." Kakaiin Qingyue stood gracefully beside Tsuchimikado Natsume, holding the closed bat fan in her right hand Tapping his left hand lightly.

"Teamwork is extremely important in the catastrophe. However, if you are used to relying on the strength of others, you will have no room to grow. It is good or bad that you can complete the catastrophe without your participation. In this Always see your own strength clearly, which is also the significance of this exam."

Quite rightly, this is a reminder to Tsuchimikado Natsume.Tsuchimikado Natsume had an expression of itching teeth, but he was unable to refute the truth.

But the old lecturer soon smiled again,

"... Having said that, it is not the purpose of this trip to let you complete the spiritual disaster. It seems that the critical moment is approaching now."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and looked at his watch to confirm the time.

Gradually slanting westward, the surrounding street lights lit up one by one.The time of dusk is called "the time of meeting the devil" and "the time of great disaster", that is, the time when the disaster occurs.The activation of the spiritual disaster is also in this time zone.If the exam continues to be delayed, it may cause an incalculable situation.

However, just before the old lecturer was about to give Natsume Tsuchimikado permission to take the exam, his cell phone rang.

"The situation seems to be quite serious." Hanakaiin Qingyue blinked her eyes, looked at the old lecturer who became impatient, and said to Natsume Tsuchimikado.

Tsuchimikado Natsume also saw this situation, he nodded to Hanakaiin Qingyue, and turned his attention back to the spiritual disaster.

Phase 1 surrounded by school students was suspected of a spiritual disaster, and the spiritual pressure suddenly began to rise.The original gas-like appearance began to show texture in an instant.

With a "pop", the floor tiles directly below the spiritual disaster cracked.

"Tsk! Everyone, strengthen the barrier! The Purge Squad increases its output! Stop the spread of the spiritual disaster!" Kurahashi Kyoko, who noticed the change, immediately shouted.Her voice was a little more urgent than before.All the students in the school changed color.Then—as expected of a student of Onmyojuku—immediately responded to Kurahashi Kyoko's instructions, and fully dealt with the spiritual calamity.

The total amount of mana released by the school students is increasing.

However, it doesn't work.The spiritual pressure of the spiritual disaster has risen by leaps and bounds.

"Teacher!?" Natsume Tsuchimikado turned to the teachers in panic.However, at this time, the three invigilators had already run to the side of the students with extremely serious expressions.

While vigorously increasing the mantra power,

"The enchantment class maintains the status quo! The cleansing class withdraws from the enchantment. —— Cangqiao! Can you hold on for another minute?"

"Yes!"

"Okay. Send someone over to support the enchantment! Everyone, keep calm and act quickly!"

The stern voice of the old lecturer is full of force, but it calms the listener and gives people a sense of peace of mind.

One of the lecturers joined the barrier circle at the position opposite Kyoko Kurahashi.The strength of the enchantment doubles immediately.Then, the old lecturer and one of the remaining lecturers jumped into the barrier instead of Tsuchimikado Harutora and Momoeda Tenma who ran out of the barrier in a panic.

The spiritual disaster that continued to expand began to distort under the impact.The magic power formed into a net bounds up the spiritual calamity tightly.

Under the confinement of the spell, the catastrophe struggled violently.The miasma emanating from the spiritual disaster is still extremely thick even under restraint.However, it is still impossible to break through the curse of the two old lecturers.The expansion of spiritual disasters has been brought under control.

"what--"

A Dao Dong'er suddenly fell to the ground, his face pale.It seemed that he was enduring something with all his strength, and his shoulders were shaking violently.Pressing his temple with his right hand and propping his left hand on the ground, a beast-like roar leaked out of his clenched teeth.

In the next moment, the miasma erupted by the spiritual disaster hit.The school students screamed together.The barrier finally collapsed.In the small square, miasma spewed out.

The old lecturer and another lecturer tried their best to suppress the spiritual disaster.The lecturer, who was maintaining the barrier, gave up on setting up the barrier again, and rushed to support the two.Although the spiritual disaster is still under the spell, the spiritual pressure has risen again.

Cracks gradually spread on the floor tiles.With a crackle, the floor tiles were smashed from below, exposing the dark earth.And the soil was gushing out like lava.The current spiritual disaster, strictly speaking, should be Phase 2.

"Show yourself, Beidou!"

Awe-inspiring voice.Then, in the sky dyed red by the setting sun, a high-spirited aura burst out.

The spiritual energy rushed up and down, and it materialized in the blink of an eye.The belt-shaped body is about ten meters long.The two horns and the upside-down hairs are connected into one piece.The golden scales covering the whole body shine brightly in the setting sun.The students and even the lecturers gasped and looked up.

Dragon.

It is Tsuchimikado Natsume Shikigami, Hokuto.Its figure is far beyond its actual size, majestic, dignified, and has even reached a state of majesty.The spiritual disaster that was regarded as a big threat in the eyes of everyone just now suddenly feels small.

"Big Dipper! This is the Lord's order, cleanse this evil and filthy yin energy!"

Tsuchimikado Natsume ordered.Beidou showed a reluctant reaction for a moment.It seems that I want to enjoy the long-lost vast sky first.

However, when he noticed the spiritual disaster squatting on the ground, he showed surprise, and then frowned suspiciously.It seems that the spiritual disaster has polluted the comfortable night sky, which is very unpleasant.

Beidou twisted his body in the air with a grunt, aiming at the spiritual disaster on the ground.

"Everyone, evacuate quickly!"

As soon as Tsuchimikado Natsume finished speaking, Hokuto rushed straight towards the spiritual disaster like an eagle rushing towards its prey—or even like a sharp sword fired from the sky.

"No, not good!?"

The old lecturer hastily undid the gold binding.Instead, he opened a barrier to protect the students around him—to be precise, he spread it.

In the next instant, the big dipper with its fangs and claws bumped into a spiritual disaster.

The aura and the miasma collide, and the aura rushes in all directions.It was almost like a bomb went off.

Sora, who was petrified by Hokuto, let out an "Ah!?", and was blown away to Tsuchimikado Harutora under the impact.

Aura and miasma vortexed throughout the small square.Soon it was like dust dissipating, and it gradually became thinner.

Taking a closer look, the ground originally occupied by the spiritual disaster was completely overturned, as if it had been bombed.

Beidou floated up several meters into the air again, patrolling below with a grunt.It seems to be looking for whether there is any unsightly miasma left.All the students in the school were dumbfounded, looking up at the Big Dipper.Kyoko and the others, who had tried their best to maintain the barrier until the end, were hit by the aura storm from the front, looking like their souls had come out of their shells.

"...As expected of the Guardian Beast of the Tsuchimikado family... how powerful it is."

The old lecturer expressed the aspirations of all the staff in a shocked tone.The enchantment he cast hastily has been blown away without leaving a trace.

"Yes, I'm sorry! Everyone, are you injured?"

Natsume, who summoned the Hokuto, ran towards the juku students with a flushed face.

"Natsume..." Harutora Tsuchimikado greeted her with a bitter face. "Thanks to you, everyone was saved...but isn't there a more prudent approach?"

"No, there is no other way, right? Isn't this an emergency situation!"

"The moment just now was the most urgent situation."

"What, what kind of sarcasm are you talking about! Didn't I rush into battle too?"

But it's not over yet...

The old lecturer was taken aback.

huge.It was like an elephant falling from the sky.Even with all fours prostrate on the ground, the height is already over three meters.It has a head, a body, four limbs and a tail, but the first impression it gives is an "unbalanced" combination.The head "seems" like a baboon, the limbs "feel" like a tiger, and the tail "looks" like a snake's tail.However, their respective impressions are changing all the time.No, it's not just the impression, it's actually constantly changing its appearance.Such a monster suddenly jumped out from the side of A Dao Dong'er who fell to the ground in pain, and landed in the big pit hit by Beidou just now.

The fur and scaled parts of the body surface are distributed alternately, and even the lengths of the hands and feet are inconsistent.The stripes are swimming on the surface of the body like a living thing. It has just grown horns and wings, and immediately fell off from the roots.It's as if several kinds of creatures were forcibly synthesized together—no, it seems that they are still in the process of synthesis.

This is because the five qi of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are independent and concentrated.The five partial yin qi disguised as miasma, after materialization, still compete with each other for dominance within it.

"Ph, Phase 3...how could this be..."

Phase 3, "Type Chimera".

A spiritual disaster known as "鵺" among fellow Onmyoji.

Qingyue Huakaiyuan, who was standing gracefully by the side, also became serious.Pressing his closed bat fan against his lower lip, he thought for a while.

"Five Elements Barrier Formation." He raised his hand and used the bat fan to blur a platycodon flower mark in the air, and then stretched his hands horizontally to prop up a huge barrier to protect the surrounding people into the barrier. The silver-haired boy opened his mouth and said sharply. "Big Tengu, Feather Blade Storm!"

A young monster with huge black wings appeared in the air in front of the "Ne" in an instant. The soft light golden hair and the snow-white sleeves of the hunting uniform with blue patterns together gave off an ominous appearance in the "Ne". Flying in the wind, those are not the soft wings of a bird, but steel-like feather blades scattered in the air.

After hearing the words of the silver-haired onmyoji, the young monster's blue eyes calmly glanced at the huge barrier propped up behind him, spread his wings forward, encased himself, and opened them in an instant.The storm suddenly formed and rolled up the steel-like feather blades scattered in the air, and hit the spiritual disaster called "鵺" ahead.In order to improve the hit rate, the storm and the feather blade, which attacked indiscriminately, hit the barrier propped up by the silver-haired boy.

"Feel my power over the storm."

The barrier was in danger, shaking violently, the silver-haired boy sighed helplessly, raised his hand and took out another talisman paper from his pocket.

"Dragon, show up and lend me your strength." The gentle young man wearing a blue-and-white dragon-scale-like feather weaving appeared in the blue light transformed from the talisman paper, and raised his hand without hesitation to control the winding The whole body of the orange dragon.

The former Lord Fengshen used the power of the Wind Dragon God to turn it into a guarded wind shield to protect the people in the barrier.

The next moment, the barrier shattered.

The author has something to say:

This world is a little bit beyond expectations. According to the previous progress, at least more than 20 chapters can be written in this episode, but because some babies have not read this episode, the author speeds up the progress a little.

Seimei's cover can't stop Ootengu's Featherstorm, so if you meet the opponent with Ootengu in fighting skills, you can consider not bringing Seimei. (It’s just the author’s personal opinion ps: The author’s fighting skills are super bad. The only hobby is that Kagura sucks the opposite side twice in a row with the blue light, and they suck until they have no fire and the rabbit has no fire to open up.
