Chapter 610

"I remember the Great Spirit Vein is underground. Can I enter the Great Spirit Vein on a physical level?"

"Physical level?"

Sanzu Kawahiro looked at him in confusion.

"Just like this."

Broly crouched down, his hand knife directly piercing through the high-rise rooftop's ground.

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro watched the ground, pierced by the boy's palm as if it were tofu, his eye twitched, but he still explained.

"Broly-sama, although the Great Spirit Vein is said to be underground, it cannot be reached from an actual physical level. Only spirit bodies can enter the Great Spirit Vein. Even for spirit bodies, if they have lingering wishes or grudges, generally wanting to enter the Great Spirit Vein requires first settling the lingering wishes or eliminating the grudges."

Broly became troubled. He looked at his own Goddess Master: "Aqua Master, do you have a way?"

"I am the Water Goddess, not the Death Goddess, and do not have the authority to manipulate souls."

Aqua shook her head in reply, but then thought of something and proposed an idea.

"How about this, Broly, you die once first?"

Hearing this, Broly was stunned, then felt this was a good method.

"Ah?!"

Aqua hadn't even reacted yet when her own disciple raised his hand and brought it down, a hand knife chopping onto his own neck.

The condensed Qi sword, facing the neck with all defenses withdrawn, directly pierced through.

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro watched the fresh blood splattering before him and the boy's head rolling to his feet, his brain buzzing a bit. The adult behind the black-and-white twin ninja was a living person, but right before his eyes he committed suicide by decapitating himself on the spot. This operation directly stunned him into dumbfoundedness.

Is this something a human can do? Even if it's to become a spirit body, who would just directly commit suicide like this?

"Broly, I was just saying it casually. How did you actually die?"

Aqua ran over in a panic, picked up the boy's head from the ground, placed the head onto the headless corpse, and threw Resurrection spells onto the corpse without hesitation.

When Broly climbed up touching his neck, he looked around at the unchanged environment and subconsciously asked: "Am I a spirit body now?"

"Uh, no."

Sanzu Kawahiro replied, pointing at Aqua beside him.

"This lord revived you."

If before he still had some doubts about how people could be revived without the Killing Stone, then now there was absolutely no need to doubt. His own top boss's master, or rather his top boss's master's master, truly possessed the power to revive the dead.

And judging from the feeling, this power was not evil either. He had been close just now and felt his soul nearly being purified. It was only the Killing Stone in his eye socket outputting power in time that prevented him from achieving Buddhahood right here while observing the revival scene.

"Aqua Master?"

Broly looked at Aqua in some confusion, not understanding why she stopped him.

"I was just worried I wouldn't be able to revive you."

Aqua explained.

"Now that it's confirmed you can revive me, can you let my soul come out?"

Aqua pursed her lips, only feeling this world's native gods were really not sensible. If they would just obediently listen, why would her own disciple have to rely on death to achieve soul separation?

"Wait."

Just as Broly prepared to die again, Sanzu Kawahiro interjected.

"What is it?"

Broly looked at him.

"Broly-sama, although you were revived very quickly just now, I still saw clearly. Your soul did not leave your body because of your death. On the contrary, your soul still clung dead tight to your body.

And if this Aqua-sama hadn't revived you, you would probably have autonomously transformed into a zombie or a Dullahan or such powerful monster, and would not appear in spirit body form."

Sanzu Kawahiro hurriedly explained.

In this world, the stronger a person's soul, the easier it is to transform into a powerful spirit after death. Sanzu Kawahiro, who had obtained part of Tamamo no Mae's spirit's memories and knowledge, was quite certain the twin ninjas' master before him would probably become an existence similar to an Undying after death, but one possessing a corpse body, not entering the Great Spirit Vein's reincarnation, an Undying existing in the present world.

"No, then what do we do?"

Broly was also somewhat stunned. Aqua Master could indeed revive corpses, but couldn't retrieve souls. And he still couldn't separate his soul from his body to go to the Great Spirit Vein and persuade those land gods unwilling to let souls return to the mortal world. The matter of reviving his prospective mother-in-law was stuck just like this, giving a somewhat neither-up-nor-down feeling.

Fortunately, when indecisive, he could first ask his wives' opinions in the Group Chat Room.

KonoSuba World. The Lich lady minding the shop as usual in Axel's Magic Tool Shop, upon seeing Broly's help-seeking message in the Group Chat Room, became somewhat eager. Just as she was preparing to send the message 【"I'm also a ghost, can help, absolutely not because I want to go play in another world"】, someone sent a message in the Group Chat Room a step ahead.

Xiao Yu: "Broly, don't you have the Sheep Talisman? That talisman can let your soul leave your body."

"Eh, I completely forgot about this talisman. I'll go try it."

And below, a new message appeared very quickly.

"Thanks, I've already successfully achieved soul projection!"

Wiz: "..."

Silently deleting the message she wanted to send, sitting behind the counter she revealed a sighing appearance.

Also seeing the Group Chat Room message, Yunyun who was wiping magic tools looked over at Wiz, but also helplessly sighed.

Perhaps because she was older than Broly, Teacher Wiz was always shy about making requests to the boy that were a bit like acting spoiled.

Food Spirit World. Broly had already used the Sheep Talisman to successfully achieve soul projection. But looking at Aqua beside him, he always had a strange feeling. Subconsciously he asked: "Aqua Master, did you suddenly get smaller?"

"It's not that I got smaller. It's that Broly you suddenly got bigger."

Aqua pursed her lips. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe her own petite disciple's body actually hid such a big guy's soul.

At this moment, appearing before Aqua was a tall, sturdily built youth with knotted muscles, arms that could let horses run, a tiger back and bear waist, clear brows and beautiful eyes.

On his body was a set of Wanpa Star-style Bay Beast beast skin clothes. There were some scars on his face, yet it was full of wildness.

Broly lowered his head to look at his own palms, discovering it really was true he had gotten bigger. At least compared to his own flesh body lying on the ground, he was at least two to three times larger in degree.

"Eh, why would my soul be this appearance?"

Broly looked at his enlarged and strengthened body, yet was somewhat confused.

"Broly-sama, soul appearance is related to self-cognition. Your subconscious believes you are what appearance, then your soul posture will manifest in what appearance."

Sanzu Kawahiro, who had already believed Broly was absolutely not a little boy, now stood to the side with an unsurprised expression and gave an explanation.

"I see."

Broly understood; his subconscious would sometimes spit out weird information, which differed somewhat from his subjective consciousness.

"Apart from the scars on your body, Broly, once you grow up you'll probably look just like this."

Aqua stroked her chin, circling around Broly's youthful spirit form and scrutinizing it carefully.

"Didn't grow crooked, very handsome, sturdy body, and quite well-endowed too!"

As she spoke, Aqua reached out and touched his face, then his chest, his abs, and finally grabbed Little Broly once, revealing a satisfied expression of 'my boy has grown into a man'.

Broly: "..."

He couldn't shake the feeling that his Goddess Master right now was just like a delinquent woman teasing an innocent young man.

"Aqua Master, the Sheep Talisman only provides one hour of astral projection; I still need to rush to restore your face by persuading those land gods inside the Great Spirit Veins."

"Oh, right."

Reminded, Aqua flared up instantly and instructed her disciple: "Broly, you must give those ignorant lower world native gods a proper lesson! Make them know that I, the Great Water Main God worshipped by the Axis Cult, am absolutely not to be trifled with!"

"Mm."

Broly nodded solemnly, then looked at Sanzu Kawahiro.

After a while, seeing the other party do nothing, Broly hurriedly asked: "Aren't we departing?"

"Broly-sama, I already said, the Killing Stone cannot carry you."

"So my astral projection is actually useless?"

"Not exactly. I know a Great Spirit Vein entrance; you can enter from there."

"Lead the way!"

"Okay."

The butterfly youth hurriedly took flight to lead the way, and in his spiritual sense perception, the youthful spirit form following behind was like a spiritual sun; although the other party leaked no terrifying power, merely looking at him gave his spirit form a heavy feeling, like an ant looking up at a star overhead.

He had spoken too soon just now; the guy behind was absolutely an existence countless times more terrifying than the Nine-Tails that formed the Killing Stone, no wonder the Killing Stone couldn't move him.

"We've arrived, Broly-sama."

Hibiya Park. Two spirit forms descended one after another. Sanzu Kawahiro pointed at the lawn in the park center and said to the Saiyan spirit form in youthful appearance behind him.

"But there's nothing here?"

Broly looked around, but saw nothing at all.

"The entrance is underground."

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro spoke and dived underground; Broly followed inside.

The sensation of a spirit form entering underground was somewhat like entering a liquid.

The deeper he went, the more a sense of stagnation grew.

And when it felt roughly like a mud pit, Broly saw points of light.

Of course, this wasn't a visual image, but a scene perceived through spiritual power.

Beneath Hibiya Park, there existed a gap like a passage.

"Is this the Great Spirit Vein entrance?"

Broly asked the butterfly youth ahead.

"Yes, however, rather than calling it an entrance, it's more a seal. It seals an Undying, one of the Great Spirit Vein land gods — the Great Tengu."

Sanzu Kawahiro explained; having personally witnessed Aqua's ability to resurrect the dead, he honestly disclosed the situation here.

"The Great Tengu also devours spirit forms. Sealed here for so many years, he's definitely starving. If Broly-sama wants to enter the Great Spirit Vein from here, you'd best be careful..."

Sanzugawa Kazuhiro hadn't finished speaking when Broly charged straight into the seal opening.

"Ah, Broly-sama, I haven't told you yet how to get out of the Great Spirit Vein?"

Sanzu Kawahiro was startled, gritted his teeth, and hurriedly followed.

Upon entering the seal, spiritual perception vision plunged into darkness again; the surroundings gave a feeling of sinking, sinking, and sinking further in a mire.

Broly lurked at extreme speed for three minutes; with a *puff*, he emerged from a pitch-black passage into a strange space composed of a vast amount of black mire.

The entire space seemed to have only him as a light source, while the slightly writhing black mire all around gave an oppressive, dead silence.

"Anyone here?"

Broly shouted directly. The slightly writhing black mire space halted its writhing; faces of despair gradually emerged on the mire. Only then did Broly realize the surroundings weren't mire, but countless shattered souls emitting malice and resentment.

"Ah—"

These souls, looking at Broly in youthful spirit form — the only one emitting light in the dark world — let out piercing screams the next moment.

The entire dark space came alive; a black tidal wave composed of countless evil residual souls began surging toward Broly in midair, as if wanting to drag him into this endless abyss as well, to share the same despair and pain.

"Shut up!"

But before the huge black wave reached Broly's side, the evil residual souls' screams made another existence feel displeased.

The black wave was shattered by a giant clawed hand; the evil residual souls were crushed and reassembled, and a giant humanoid creature with horns on its head climbed up from the mire-like evil residual soul ocean.

The Great Tengu, already displeased by Aqua's harassing communication, had not a shred of patience for the racket of these idiot residual souls in the depths of Naraku.

A swung giant claw directly suppressed the residual souls' clamor, and He also noticed the strange guy overhead who could emit light in the depths of Naraku.

"Who are you, where do you come from?"

The Great Tengu tilted his head. He sensed danger from Broly, and therefore did not attack directly, but inquired about the other's identity.

"I'm Broly, a Saiyan who came in from outside. My master said you land gods won't give face, unwilling to release the person she prepared to help me resurrect. So I personally came down here to the Great Spirit Vein, ready to talk with you land gods about this matter."

Broly introduced himself concisely and stated his purpose.

"That bossy voice, is that your master?"

Broly: "..."

"Forget it, I'm hungry. Since you're partners with the guy who woke me up, stay here and fill my belly!"

The Great Tengu spoke.

【How strong could an outsider possibly be.】

Thinking thus, he directly made a move; a giant palm struck toward Broly, just like swatting a fly.

But the next moment, Broly used Instant Transmission to step ahead and arrive before the Great Tengu, driving one kick into that guy's face.

"Bang—"

The Great Tengu's head was kicked to the side first, then the tremendous force sent its massive body flying, crashing into the black wall constructed of evil remnant souls with a huge sound; countless remnant souls wailed in pain as they flew up, faces twisted.

"Although I don't know if Aqua Master said something rude, since you want to eat me, you'd better be prepared to take a beating from me."

Broly looked at the fallen Great Tengu and spoke seriously.

"That hurts, you bastard!"

The Great Tengu climbed up, its face full of anger, opened its mouth, and a beam of black energy wave rapidly condensed inside its mouth; the next instant it spewed toward Broly's side.

Broly neither dodged nor evaded; his body went against the black energy wave upstream, and upon reaching the front of the Great Tengu's mouth, he gave that guy another punch, forcing its mouth shut.

Although the size difference was huge, the small-framed Broly was, without a doubt, pinning the large-framed Great Tengu against the black wall made of evil remnant souls and hammering it.

After entering the Naraku at the depths of the Great Spirit Vein, Sanzugawa Kazuhiro who had followed in saw the scene of the Saiyan beating the Great Tengu — the kind where the Great Tengu had no power to fight back at all.
