Chapter 1066: 631. Vest falls off
Kamo Tadayuki felt incredibly frustrated at this mont.
Even with the composure developed from long-term authority, she almost couldn’t help but swear.
Damn it, why? Why could there still be an unexpected turn at this final juncture?
The Great Onmyoji was utterly unable to comprehend this.
Do you know how long she has been planning for today? Do you know what price she has paid to subdue this Ghost King Shikigami?
She sacrificed even her own daughter and wife as offerings, and she even used an Ancestor’s Clan-Suppressing Talisman to seal the scene.
For today’s harvest, she calculated everything on the Japan island, certain that no one would interfere tonight. Yet, unexpectedly, sothing still happened.
At this mont, she was so enraged that she almost spat blood.
As the Bureau Chief of the Yin Yang Bureau, the foremost Onmyoji of the current generation, Kamo Tadayuki realized early on that the Yin Yang Technique on Japan island had its limits.
Although called the Yin Yang Technique, it essentially was the Five Elents Technique. This could be seen from the Pentagram Magic Circle most commonly used by the Onmyoji.
The Pentagram symbolizes the power of the Five Elents.
As for why it’s called Onmyoji when clearly using the Five Elents Technique, perhaps because people desire what they lack.
Kamo Tadayuki scoured the array of family tos left behind, eventually finding answers in her Ancestor’s cultivation manual.
The current Yin Yang Technique heritage was indeed incomplete. The full na of the complete Yin Yang Technique should be the Onmyodo Five Elents Technique, with the upper scroll Yin Yang Scroll explaining the Wheel of Yin and Yang, and the lower scroll Five Elents Scroll explaining the transformations of the Five Elents.
But for so reason, the Yin Yang Scroll, a fundantal part of the whole doctrine, has been lost, with only the Five Elents Scroll still being passed down.
However, a technique that’s incomplete leads to a dead end.
Though in the eyes of outsiders, the Great Onmyoji is already an exceptional figure, one of the strongest on Japan island, ought to have no regrets left.
But Kamo Tadayuki did not think so; she wanted to advance further.
Since the future of the Yin Yang technique is severed, she decided to abandon it and take a different path. After all, the island isn’t limited to just this immortal path.
However, the Amaterasu Shrine she couldn’t provoke for the ti being, leaving only the Hyakki Buddhist Dharma on Monster Mountain as the sole option.
Fortunately, the Ancestor who revitalized the Yin Yang Technique heritage also had great research into the Hyakki Buddhist Dharma.
Even that Ancestor had comprehended the essence of the Hyakki Buddhist Dharma, discovering a thod to gather the Power of Hyakki and condense the Demon Buddha Form.
The Shikigami thod, this was the Ancestor’s combination of the Yin Yang Technique with the Hyakki Buddhist Dharma, a thod to borrow the Power of Hyakki.
Theoretically, as long as one could make all the Hyakki shikigami, one could gather the Power of Hyakki to achieve the highest realm of the Demon Buddha Law.
Yet the Ancestor ultimately could not successfully verify this theory, as although the thod existed, there weren’t enough Hyakki at that ti, with not a single Ghost King level present.
But when Kamo Tadayuki found this Ancestor’s note, she was ecstatic. To her, the Hyakki gap wasn’t a huge problem; since it didn’t exist, she decided to cultivate it herself.
Moreover, the Yin Yang Bureau on Japan island was supposed to be a departnt to subdue monsters and demons; often, one’s opponent knew them best, so no one understood Hyakki better than her as the Great Onmyoji.
In her view, Hyakki wasn’t difficult to cultivate. After all, those obstinate villagers were always greedy, yearning for things they didn’t deserve. Clearly, if they controlled their desires, they could live quite well by working humbly, yet there were always so blossoming desires that would drive them to beco demons.
Over the years, Kamo Tadayuki cultivated quite a few Hyakki seedlings, among which Ibuki Yuuki was her most outstanding creation.
She was among the Three Ghost Kings, Shuten Douji, indeed.
Just waiting for this mongrel to go completely mad with demonization, she could then forcibly contract her as a shikigami to obtain that Ghost King Power.
Yet, the plan was grand, and everything proceeded smoothly, but at this very final harvesting stage, such an unexpected turn happened.
Kamo Tadayuki summoned all her strength to urge the ancient, sowhat faded Talisman in her hand.
This was an amulet left by her Ancestor for future generations, ant to form a powerful barrier in the face of irresistible danger, isolating the inside from the outside to buy ti.
But this ti, this treasure ant for protection was used by her as a ans to trap, aiming to cut off Ibuki Yuuki’s escape route completely, granting herself enough ti and space to handle the Ghost King properly.
Even though this mongrel was indeed sowhat formidable and not easy to deal with, it wasn’t a big problem. A sane Ghost King was hard to handle, but a rampaging demonized Ghost King was much less threatening. With the robust restraining power of the Shikigami Contract on rampaging demons, she had confidence she could handle it one-on-one.
However, the Ancestor Barrier ant to isolate everything was forcibly breached by an external force at this mont.
That power was terrifying and mighty beyond Kamo Tadayuki’s imagination; what she thought was her trump card, the Ancestor Barrier, was easily pierced, and a Void Gate boldly opened right before her eyes.
