Chapter 584: Corpse in Hand, Evil Spirit Tide Emergency!

~15 min read 2,828 words

Two ninjas, one black and one white, wielding ninja swords, charged straight at the evil spirit tide.

Under the overhead view, they were like two cutting lines, madly reaping the lives of the evil spirits.

Especially the black shadow ninja, who performed with extra vigor, slaying evil spirits while glancing toward the white shadow ninja in the other direction.

The white shadow ninja also felt it—the gaze of an opposite nature but similar kind—and the sword in his hand couldn't help but speed up a bit.

Competition between summoned beasts seemed to unfold invisibly once more, and the evil spirits within the evil spirit tide became the objects to determine victory or defeat.

The two ninjas' spirit-slaying speed was fast, but compared to Broly, it was lacking; while the two ninjas were merely comprehensively intercepting the ever-advancing evil spirit tide, Broly's side had already cut through half of the evil spirit tide.

In his nightwear state, he didn't need to maintain the persona of an ordinary child at all; the sword in his hand was danced by him into the effect of a sword blade storm, and wherever he passed, it was like a heavy truck with the accelerator floored slamming into speed bumps on the roadside.

Any evil spirit that didn't actively dodge him, no matter what type BCD, would all turn into a pile of fragments; and the reason there were no type A ones was only because this evil spirit tide simply had no upper-level spirits of type A, not because type A could block the Saiyan heavy truck.

Broly was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye he arrived at the barrier of the Tsuchimiya Spirit Vein, and the exorcists maintaining the barrier inside had long noticed something was wrong.

After all, when piles of evil spirits were cut into pieces and flew into the sky, anyone could tell a more formidable fierce character had arrived; they had already increased their spiritual power output to solidify the Great Bright King Barrier.

However, it was useless; after Broly arrived before the barrier, just a single ordinary slash, with a crackling sound, directly rang out, and the Immovable Bright King Barrier was instantly shattered, unable to stop Broly's steps at all.

"A powerful evil spirit has broken in!"

The barrier shattering caused the exorcists maintaining the barrier to suffer spiritual power backlash; these people turned pale, but someone still sent out a warning into the spirit vein.

"What?"

But the exorcists currently maintaining the inheritance ritual had no time to worry too much, because the strongest spirit beast Byakuei also became somewhat restless after the barrier shattered; the ferocious beast that fed on evil spirits seemed to want to break through the seal and go devour the evil spirit tide outside.

"Where did this guy come from, to be so brave?"

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro, who observed this scene remotely through manipulated spirit butterflies, was somewhat surprised; he originally thought it was reinforcements from the Tsuchimiya family, but after seeing the other party even shatter the Tsuchimiya family's barrier, he negated that idea.

The guy attacking the evil spirit tide was not reinforcements at all, but a third-party faction different from him and also different from the Tsuchimiya family, probably coming for the Tsuchimiya family's Killing Stone, but whether behind it was a person or an evil spirit was worth pondering.

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro pondered, but he quickly gave up pondering, because whether it was a person or an evil spirit, the Killing Stone falling into the hands of a third-party faction was always better than always staying in the hands of the Tsuchimiya family.

If it was an evil spirit, it would be influenced by the Nine-Tailed Fox.

And if it was a person, the Killing Stone would also lure those with sinful souls, causing them to fall into evil and become evil spirits.

After all, not everyone could have enough mental resistance to the Killing Stone like the Tsuchimiya family.

And this was a favorable situation for his purpose of wanting to resurrect the Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Although I don't know which faction you are from, go seize the Killing Stone held by the Tsuchimiya family!"

Broly didn't know someone was cheering for him in the dark; after breaking into the Tsuchimiya family's Spirit Vein Land, he began searching everywhere.

"Protect the head of the family, don't let the Killing Stone be taken away!"

A group of exorcists, seeing the guy in nightwear break into the altar, maintained the spell imprisoning Byakuei on one side while surrounding and protecting Tugong Yuele in the middle, and this also attracted Broly's attention.

【Is that Tugong Kagura's father?】

Broly glanced at the bearded man with a stern face, and in his heart felt some surprise at the matter of the other party's rugged appearance being able to produce a cute daughter.

【On the other side should be the Tsuchimiya family's strongest spirit beast Byakuei, right? It looks quite big, a bit like a Danger Beast, and I don't know if it tastes good?】

Broly glanced again at Byakuei, who looked like a dragon and was bound by spell chains in midair, which made this restless ferocious beast instantly quiet down; obviously, its perception of dangerous things was also very keen.

"Eh, Byakuei quieted down?"

The exorcists were somewhat surprised, but Byakuei no longer making a fuss was a good thing; it meant they could focus their energy to deal with this guy who broke into the Spirit Vein Land.

And just when the Tsuchimiya family and others were fully prepared, Broly also found the target he wanted to find; it was in the water pool in the middle of the altar, a floating person wearing a sacrificial white robe, a woman—or rather a female corpse; Broly had seen her on the photos Tugong Kagura took to the Isayama Family and in the cemetery.

The masked him leaped in one bound into the water pool, picked up the woman—or rather the female corpse—from the water pool, glanced once more at the stunned Tsuchimiya family exorcists, then directly carried Tugong Kagura's mother's corpse and left the Spirit Vein Land straight away.

During this period, no one stopped him, because everyone was on the other side, guarding Tugong Yuele and the Killing Stone.

And only after he left did someone speak: "That guy's target, unexpectedly wasn't the Killing Stone?"

The voice seemed to carry surprise; the person beside him nudged him with his elbow and used his gaze to indicate: 【The Head of the Tsuchimiya Family is still here, don't say that the wife's corpse being taken away by a mysterious intruder is an irrelevant matter!】

"Head of the family?"

The speaker glanced guiltily at Tugong Yuele and asked cautiously.

"The inheritance ritual continues; other matters will be discussed later."

Tugong Yuele kept a tense face, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

"Yes."

Everyone responded.

【No one stopped me from taking the corpse?】

Broly ran out of the Spirit Vein Land carrying the corpse, and no one stopped him along the way, which surprised him somewhat, but things going smoothly still made him happy.

"By the way, Sister Kagura's mother's body is still soft even now, a bit unlike someone who has been dead for four days; was some method used to treat it?"

Tugong Mai's corpse could be said to be no different from an ordinary person except that her body temperature was somewhat cold and she had no breath, like Wiz's touch.

Broly carefully examined the face of the female corpse in his hand; the other's features were exquisite, and with her eyes closed, she gave off a gentle woman's feeling.

And Tugong Kagura's appearance was seventy or eighty percent similar to hers; it seemed her looks were inherited more from her mother's side, and didn't match her father's rugged appearance at all.

"Aqua Master, I've got the corpse."

Broly @'d Aqua in the group chat room.

"Ah, hah, sorry, Broly, I'm temporarily working overtime on my end; Chief God asked me to preside over the examination of newly graduated angels, and I can't get away; after the examination ends in a month, I'll go to your side."

And Aqua quickly gave a reply.

"Before that, you freeze the corpse in a fridge or use ice magic to preserve it."

Broly: "......"

【Then what was he looking for a corpse so fast for?】

However, Aqua Master having temporary matters and not being able to make time was unavoidable.

However, what Broly didn't know was that this wasn't temporary.

Aqua had already received the communication regarding the assessment of the Angel.

It was just that she often acted as a hands-off Main God, so she didn't take it to heart much.

By the time she belatedly realized it, she felt Broly probably wouldn't be able to get the corpse that quickly, so she didn't care.

Now that she was being asked about it, she was completely breaking into a cold sweat as she replied.

"Alright, Aqua Master."

Broly replied with a sentence, then began thinking about how to preserve the body of this prospective mother-in-law in his hands.

He knew Ice Magic, but where would he put the frozen corpse? He couldn't possibly put it at the Isayama Family.

And if he put it in the Wild, what if small animals like rats ate it?

Hmm, perhaps, he should have the Twin Ninjas guard it...

Thinking to this point, Broly's train of thought stopped. He looked at the corpse in his hand, and the next moment, the corpse disappeared from his hand.

The corner of Broly's mouth twitched. He suddenly remembered this matter: although the Crystal Palace's Internal Space cannot smuggle living beings who are not Crystal Palace members, dead objects can be placed inside, and as long as they are not placed in the Environment Module's space, they can obtain extreme preservation.

【I have collected the prospective mother-in-law's corpse~】

Strange information popped up in his consciousness. Broly shook his head and looked in the direction of the Twin Ninjas.

"You two, how have you still not settled the situation here?"

He went directly over to rendezvous with his two summoned creatures, somewhat dissatisfied with their dawdling.

From the time he entered the Tsuchimiya Spirit Vein Land to the time he came out, plus the communication with Aqua Master, two or three minutes had passed, yet the杂灵 outside still hadn't been cleaned up.

The two competing ninjas, hearing this, stiffened and looked over with a somewhat innocent expression.

Although there were no high-level spirits in the entire Evil Spirit Tide, there were still quite a few Type B mid-level spirits.

Although the Black and White Twin Ninjas' strength was above Type B spirit bodies, it wasn't like they could instantly kill mid-level spirits in seconds.

Especially inside, there were still some relatively troublesome special-type mid-level spirits.

If it were human Exorcists, they would likely have been injured long ago, or even wiped out.

Unlike them, who could still rampage and kill in the Evil Spirit Tide.

But, compared to their own Master, slow is slow.

The Black and White Twin Ninjas could not refute this point. They lowered their heads, feeling guilt over their insufficient efficiency in handling matters.

"Forget it, the corpse is already in hand, we can withdraw."

As Broly spoke, he slashed a horizontal sword strike at the remaining Evil Spirit Tide.

Sword Qi pushed out, and the group of evil spirits that hadn't been wiped out yet were directly cleared out by him.

Just as he was about to leave, the Black Shadow Ninja pointed at the dissipating evil spirits.

"Oh, right, almost forgot, you still need to hunt evil spirits and absorb them to increase your strength!"

Broly patted his forehead, remembering this matter.

He threw the sword into the Crystal Palace and activated the Plundering Aura.

The intense lingering resentment in the surroundings, and the evil spirits that hadn't dissipated yet, were rolled up, then compressed, compressed, and compressed again.

Finally, compressed into a black crystal roughly the size of a small infant, Broly threw it to the Black Shadow Ninja.

After catching it, the Black Shadow Ninja first glanced at the White Shadow Ninja, then absorbed the black crystal the size of a small infant into its body.

The black flames on its body surged violently. The power condensed from the evil spirits of most of the Evil Spirit Tide brought the Black Shadow Ninja's spirit body level to the level of a high-level spirit. Its aura instantly surpassed the White Shadow Ninja, causing the platinum flames on the White Shadow Ninja to flicker.

And having absorbed so much soul power, the Black Shadow Ninja's appearance also became more refined.

Its crimson eyes narrowed as they looked at the White Shadow Ninja, like crescent moons, as if laughing.

White Shadow Ninja: "..."

Silent, it turned its pale gold pupils toward its own Master, expressing nothing, yet seemingly expressing everything.

Broly, being looked at like this by his summoned creature: "..."

Both doing the work, the Black Shadow Ninja got benefits while the White Shadow Ninja got none; he seemed to have been somewhat partial.

Thinking it over, Broly condensed a ball of Qi and threw it over. Soul Crystals are relatively rare, but Qi is more than enough on his end.

The White Shadow Ninja hurriedly caught it, and after absorbing Broly's Qi, the platinum spirit flames on its body also blazed up vigorously, gradually forming a situation of confronting the black flames on the Black Shadow Ninja side by side.

Black Shadow Ninja: "..."

Suddenly felt the Evil Spirit Crystal was a bit unappealing.

"With a wave of the hand, he created two high-level spirits?"

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro, seeing this scene through the manipulated Spirit Butterfly, murmured to himself. This scene also confirmed to him that the black-clothed person over there should have already successfully seized the Tsuchimiya Family's Killing Stone, which was why he had the ability to casually raise spirit bodies to high-level spirits.

"Hm?"

Broly suddenly looked toward the landscaping tree by the roadside. It was at this moment that the two ninja soldiers, originally gazing at each other, vanished from their original spot and appeared on the tree Broly was gazing at, while an unknown butterfly with wings emitting phosphorescence flew away as if startled, flapping its wings.

On the water tower five kilometers away, Sanzugawa Kazuhiro, already serving as host to multiple Killing Stones, rapidly broke out in a dense layer of cold sweat on his forehead.

He really hadn't expected that his remotely manipulated, highly concealed Spirit Butterfly, hiding in the landscaping belt tree, could actually be discovered. Good thing the spell sharing perception was severed quickly.

"No, I can't harbor a fluke mentality. What if that guy has already discovered me? I must leave here first!"

The not-large boy on the water tower quickly transformed into a swarm of butterflies, letting the butterfly swarm concealing his existence fly off in different directions.

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro was extremely cautious. He determined that tonight's third-party faction was not something the current him could handle.

If the other party discovered he also had Killing Stones, they might come kill him and seize the goods. Of course, he didn't care about the Killing Stones, but he cared about the purpose he wanted to achieve.

"Before resurrecting Mother, I cannot die yet. Before figuring out the other party's identity and temper, I absolutely cannot make contact with them haphazardly. Even if I ultimately have to offer up my own Killing Stones to resurrect the Nine-Tails, it must be conducted under the premise of guaranteeing my own life safety..."

"Just a glowing butterfly?"

Broly looked at the butterfly flying far away, but didn't pay much mind to it. He had the two ninjas go rehearse the Exorcist Girl Training Plan's scenes a bit more, then flew straight back to the Isayama Family.

Left at 12 o'clock, returned only half an hour later, yet the Isayama household was already brightly lit; Broly's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly changed into sleepwear and slipped into the toilet.

"Sister Huangquan, what's wrong?"

"Eh, Broly, you weren't sleeping in your room?"

Jianshan Huangquan looked at him in surprise.

"Going to the toilet."

Broly pretended to have just come out of the toilet, yawning and rubbing his bleary eyes as he answered.

"The Tsuchimiya Spirit Vein encountered an Evil Spirit Tide attack; the Countermeasures Bureau contacted me urgently, I have to rush over."

"Then what about me?"

"Sister and Father going is enough; a child still needs to maintain sufficient sleep time every day."

Jianshan Huangquan ruffled his head, then with the Treasure Sword at her waist prepared to go out with Father.

But just at this time, the girl's phone received a text message...

"Uh, Father, it seems we don't need to go."

"What's wrong, Huangquan?"

"The Evil Spirit Tide has already been solved."

"Eh?"
