Chapter 430: Kikyo and the Spear of Penetrating Rain

"I have received the inheritance of a powerful miko from the Warring States period."

Ren Amamiya's brows tightened.

The Warring States period, and an inheritance from a powerful miko at that.

Ren Amamiya, deep in thought, slowly raised his hand and asked:

"Nagatsukimi, may I ask the name of that miko?"

"Of course. Her name is Kikyo."

Nagatsukimi Izumi nodded and directly spoke the name of that miko.

"Kikyo..."

The Warring States period... a powerful miko... indeed, it seems only that powerful miko could be mentioned~.

Ren Amamiya immediately thought of the strongest miko named Kikyo.

"Indeed, it is her."

"Kikyo, the most powerful and capable miko in the Warring States period, which was full of demons. Her spiritual power could kill powerful demons in an instant; besides killing, she could also use that immense spiritual power to seal demons."

"Her spiritual power also possesses an overwhelming suppression effect against demons."

Afterwards, Ren Amamiya brushed his index finger across his thumb pad, entering a state of spiritual vision.

The thickness of his star spirit body had increased significantly, and his mental body had multiplied several times over compared to the past.

However, a shattered soul fragment also loomed upon the surface of his mental body.

Noticing this, Ren Amamiya quickly stood up, approached Nagatsukimi, and squatted down before her.

"Nagatsukimi, do not move."

Obedient Nagatsukimi Izumi immediately stood still.

Ren Amamiya raised his hand and placed it in mid-air before Nagatsukimi's chest; invisible mist formed a vortex, slowly extracting the soul fragment loitering on Nagatsukimi's mental body from her own spirit.

Soon, a blue fragment slowly extracted itself from Nagatsukimi Izumi's chest.

Nagatsukimi Izumi, who possessed spiritual power, watched this entire process.

"This is..."

Nagatsukimi Izumi never expected that a soul fragment was hidden within her body.

"The miko's inheritance. Since Kikyo was a powerful miko, her own soul was unlikely to shatter completely; it was inevitable that this inheritance brought that soul fragment into your spirit along with it."

As that soul fragment was extracted, Ren Amamiya used the authority of the Origin Chamber to seal it thoroughly; the soul fragment began to crystallize and materialize.

His fingers pinched the crystallized soul fragment.

"Nagatsukimi, hand."

Nagatsukimi Izumi immediately opened her hand, and Ren Amamiya placed the crystallized soul fragment into her palm.

"You who just received that power and inheritance have not yet fully adapted. Once you have completed your adaptation, I will help you shatter this soul fragment, turning it into nourishment for the further growth of your soul. Until then, you should keep this fragment safe."

Nagatsukimi Izumi looked at the soul fragment in her hand; she did not say anything cruel, but instead wrapped it in talisman paper and placed it inside her kimono.

She understood the value of this soul fragment.

The miko's inheritance could come with such a soul fragment; she knew very well how to use it.

Reincarnation, rebirth, possession.

Whichever it was, this soul fragment was dyed with that miko's color; as long as it existed in her spirit and soul, it would promote her change to some extent, which was absolutely not a good thing.

Although it carried danger, this shattered soul fragment was also the best nourishment; if someone could turn it into nourishment, they could achieve rapid growth in their soul.

Especially with a soul fragment from a powerful miko, this growth would be even more pronounced.

"Thank you very much, my lord Ren Amamiya."

"It's nothing. But be careful in the future; even with a diary, receiving an inheritance out of nowhere requires caution. No inheritance is without its traps."

Ren Amamiya smiled, accepting Nagatsukimi's thanks; he actually quite liked such a polite, sincere, and cute girl, and within his capabilities, he did not mind lending a hand.

"Everyone needs to be careful too; even with a diary, if you receive rewards like an inheritance, you must explain it. If that inheritance still has the deceased's lingering traps behind it, it will become very troublesome."

"Don't worry, among all of us, only Izumi encountered this."

Nagi Sanzenin rarely had the chance to laugh at Izumi, and she would not let such an opportunity slip away easily.
