Chapter 3591 Unblocking
Following Suzuka Gozen, everyone also arrived in front of the white stone monument. At this time, everyone discovered that the white stone tablet was much larger than what they saw from a distance.
If you look at it up close, this thing looks like a white building. It's so high that you can't see the top of the building even if you look up from below.
Then several people also discovered that the building seemed to be slowly rising.
Yes, the speed of elevation has reached a speed that is visible to the naked eye. Although it is somewhat invisible because the whole body is white, if you look carefully for a while, it is obvious that this thing is constantly "growing".
"This... this thing seems to be still growing taller..." Xingping Soma said directly, probably because he doubted his own eyes, so he said it for verification.
"Everything is recovering." Suzuka Gozen said, "The spiritual wedge is being pushed out, and below it is the node of the demon world passage."
"Then do you want to re-fix this spiritual wedge?" asked Alice Nakiri next to her.
"My sword is below." Suzuka Gozen said, "It is one of the key nodes of the seal. But now I must get it back first, otherwise with my current spiritual power, I will not be a match for that barbarian guy. The human body is still too delicate.”
"Then if the sword is retrieved, the corrosion of the demon world here should accelerate, right?" Alice Nakiri pointed at the black substance that was still spreading on the ground next to her. Although Suzuka Gozen did not introduce what these black substances are, looking at the current situation, I can guess that it should be something coming out of the demon world, because just by looking at it, I can tell that it is obviously not a thing of the human world.
"Yes." Suzuka Gozen nodded, "But that's not the point. The source of everything is Otakemaru. Only by solving it can we stop the invasion of the demon world around us, so we must get the sword back now."
I have to say that Suzuka Gozen, who suddenly started working seriously, began to become inexplicably reliable at this time. He seemed to be completely different from the guy who just screamed about wanting to fall in love.
Yes, this guy's original temperament should be like this now, cold and capable. When I first saw the other person, I felt that he had this kind of temperament, but after what happened just now, and looking at his current state, I always feel... weird.
At this time, Suzuka Gozen obviously didn't care about the strange contrast on his body, but continued to walk a few steps forward and came directly in front of the white stone monument. Without saying hello to anyone, he stretched out his hand and placed his palm on the white stone tablet.
The next moment, a burst of light suddenly emitted from her body. Then, the entire white stone monument seemed to be suddenly activated, and suddenly began to "grow" upwards violently.
Yes, it was already growing upwards visible to the naked eye just now, but compared with the current speed, it is obviously still far behind. Now with this fierce speed, everyone can even feel the friction on the ground. That is to say, the stone monument has grown too fast, and it is starting to feel friction with the ground.
Not even waiting for more than ten seconds, the friction from the ground suddenly stopped, because right in front of everyone, the bottom of the white stone tablet suddenly appeared. Yes, at this time, the entire white stone monument is no longer in a growing state, but is floating in the air, slowly rising to the sky.
Just as the white stone tablet was rising into the air, the large rectangular hole left on the ground suddenly began to clearly see more black things pouring out, spreading rapidly towards the surrounding areas. The speed of spread this time is also like a dam bursting.
The area covered by this black thing before was quite small, and they had not seen it even from the helicopter in the sky before. It wasn't until I entered the shrine that I saw these things around the white stone pillars.
But now, the speed of diffusion can once again be described as visible to the naked eye. However, this black thing didn't seem to have any impact on a few people.
Yes, at first, everyone also felt a sense of fear when facing this spreading thing. After all, I heard that it is something from the demon world, so I wonder if there will be any problems if it gets contaminated on them. This black substance doesn't look like a good thing at first glance.
However, in fact, everyone was standing in the black material at this time, but they did not feel any discomfort. They even... seemed to feel a little comfortable. Why?
Everyone immediately understood the reason for this somewhat comfortable feeling. That's because of spiritual power.
Yes, these black substances seem to have some activation effect on spiritual power. Once they enter the range of this black material, everyone feels that the spiritual power in their bodies becomes active, and the speed of replenishment seems to have increased.
To put it bluntly, it's like entering an area with abundant spiritual energy, which obviously feels more comfortable for practitioners like them.
But... isn't this an invasion of the demon world? Why do they feel more "adapted" to the environment of the demon world?
Doubts arose in everyone's minds, but before they had time to ask questions, a beam of light suddenly appeared in front of their eyes.
It was a beam of crimson light, and something like a fireball suddenly flew out of the rectangular hole, and then hovered directly in front of Suzuka Gozen.
The light was a bit strong, but everyone still looked at the "fireball" with ninja light. Gradually, they also saw clearly the appearance of a sword emerging from the fireball.
It was obvious that this was the sword that Suzuka Gozen wanted to retrieve.
Linton was also a little surprised when he saw this sword. Because this is indeed a sword.
This is not a sick sentence. The actual situation is that although three swords have been mentioned before, according to Linton's understanding, shouldn't there be three samurai swords? After all, the distinction between swords and swords in Hiben has always been extremely confusing. They say they are swords but they are actually knives, and they say they are swordsmanship but they are actually swordsmanship. At this time, Linton felt a little surprised when a sword suddenly appeared so normally.
The sword in front of me obviously feels a bit like the Eight-sided Han Sword, and it looks square as a whole. Of course, the more obvious feature is the constant fire.
If I have to say it, it should be a fire-attributed Noble Phantasm... Linton wasn't so sure either.
Just as he was thinking about it, Suzuka Gozen had already taken the sword in his hand. At the moment of contact, all the originally white aura on her body was dyed red, and everyone around her could clearly feel that a strong heat seemed to be released from her body.
"This is my sword, Otsuren." Suzuka Gozen said slowly.
