I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

Although it doesn't look intimidating at all, it even looks a little cute.

"Okay, trouble."

As he spoke, a kunai appeared in Ara's right hand, its tip pressed against the back of his left hand.

"Will this help you regain your strength? She's not here."

He adhered to the principle of equivalent exchange.

Even if the other party is a monster with whom they have made a pact.

"do not want!"

However, the yokai girl who had been craving someone's blood frantically reached out her icy hands and tightly gripped the hilt of the blade that could be used to slash.

"No, please don't hurt yourself anymore."

"My Onmyoji."

........

Despite failing to kill Itachi Uchiha with a curse, Ara did not show much disappointment.

Through tonight's clash, he truly tested the gap between himself and his opponent.

Even if the opponent still has Susanoo, Amaterasu, and Tsukuyomi—three trump cards yet to be revealed—haven't I also been holding back my own strengths?

【Mimi Kirimaru】: A demon-slaying sword forged by the Onmyoji master, Hidemoto Kakaiin. It can easily tear through the defenses and attacks of any energy substance, and is extremely effective when attacking monsters. It consumes 6 skill points.

During the battle against the Guardian Ninja, Jiraiya, Ara wanted to exchange for this ability.

The Nichirin Blade they currently possess, while exhibiting sufficient toughness compared to ordinary swords or even expensive chakra weapons, is more than capable of dealing with ordinary ninjas.

However, when facing a powerful opponent who can use chakra to create an energy defense, such resilience seems somewhat inadequate.

Furthermore, Kakashi Hatake's Lightning Blade tonight severed Ara's weapon, completely eliminating any remaining hesitation in Ara. This will become the strongest blade he can use to tear apart Susanoo.

'Mimi Kirimaru - Attachment.'

After successfully exchanging the power, Ara immediately picked up the broken blade beside him and attached it to the power. With a focused mind, a blue wave of demonic energy surged up. Its color was similar to that of ordinary chakra, but it was lighter, like sky blue.

Compared to the intense killing aura of the Nichirin Blade, it appears quieter and less imposing. However, judging from the Ushi no Toki's swift retreat and tense expression, this blade is indeed powerful.

"Lord Ara, that is...."

Only after Huang removed the blade's properties did the quirky and mischievous monster girl calm her astonishment and fear, and slowly approach.

"Exorcism Knife."

Huang's answer was concise.

"It won't be directed at you."

he added.

"Yes, I believe in Lord Ara."

The woman of the hour of the ox began to rise in pitch, but there was still a slight tremor in her voice. Clearly, the blade created by the Onmyoji was quite intimidating to her.

So, the last card.

A mid-level summoning talisman materialized in front of Huang. This was a reward given for achieving 50% completion of the challenge two years ago, after being interrupted by Shisui.

Currently, three monsters can be summoned through this talisman.

[Hyakume-ki], [Yoko-neko], and the [Inner Bird Sparrow] that was just triggered today.

The summoning material needed for Hyakume-ki is a pair of special eyes with ocular jutsu. It is rare for outsiders to be born with ocular jutsu, and Ara would never target any of his clansmen except Itachi. As for the demon fox, it needs Naruto Uzumaki's blood. That little guy is being closely watched by the Anbu, and if any Uchiha tries to get close, it's almost like war is about to break out.

In the end, only:

【The Soul of Resentment - The Sparrow Enters】

Yokai description: A yokai born from the blood of many dead, it is the embodiment of many grievances.

By possessing the bodies of the dying, they draw resentment from the blood and transform it into their own power.

Level: Nightmare

Summoning materials: Itachi Uchiha's blood, intermediate summoning talisman.

Enjoy yourself before you decay; I will fulfill your remaining wishes.

It is a somewhat greedy and terrifying monster.

As the blood of the wilderness stained the talisman, the surroundings suddenly turned cold. Although the lights inside the room were still on, the soft light seemed to have touched something indescribable and was gradually swallowed up.

Then, as visibility dimmed, eerie whispers began to rise from the cramped room. As if adapting to the unfamiliar surroundings in the blink of an eye, the whispers grew louder and more incessant, becoming quite disturbing.

"Yan, he's an Onmyoji, and a rather weak little guy at that. It seems he has no idea how serious it is to summon yokai at will, hehe."

"Qing, he's still alive, don't go too far. But it's certainly interesting that he summoned us here so arbitrarily."

"Oh? There's another little monster here. Let me think, who is this again? Isn't she the cursed Ushi no Toki, the one no one wants to approach?"

The conversation, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, went on in a back-and-forth exchange. The former's voice was clear and crisp, like that of a mischievous child; the latter's voice was deep and resonant, like that of an old man who had experienced much.

Upon hearing the sound, the demon girl who was sitting to one side suddenly stood up, and eerie green cursed flames appeared around her.

'Bearing a curse, no one dares approach.'

This is her taboo past.

Normally, she wouldn't care about these comments and would have long been used to them.

but.

This is in front of an Onmyoji I respect!

However, just as the woman of the hour of the ox was about to make a move, a warm hand swept past the flickering cursed fire and gently pulled it behind her. At that moment, a quiet, cool blue demonic flame reignited on the broken blade.

"Are you trying to get yourself exorcised by playing tricks on an Onmyoji?"

Huang's voice was soft, yet it carried a clear hostility.

Summoning talismans differ from contract talismans; the monsters summoned by the former do not have a direct contractual relationship with the host.

As monsters grow stronger, they become less likely to submit to humans easily.

"interesting."

The voice called Yan responded in a gloomy tone. Although the knife gave him a strong sense of intimidation, the one wielding it was a little guy. Should he be too concerned?

"A mere nameless Onmyoji dares to..."

However, the rest of the conversation abruptly ended halfway through.

Because several energy fluctuations quietly arose around them, one of which was even more powerful!

Upon closer inspection, a monster was already standing in each of the other three directions.

The sorcerer, the terracotta warriors, and the source of that powerful force: the Snow Maiden, the lord of the far northern snowfield!

"Ok?"

"what do you want to say?"

"I didn't quite hear you."

Chapter 66 Undercurrent

The light gradually returned.

A scarecrow, roughly the height of an adult, appeared in the wilderness's view.

However, beneath its tattered clothes lay piles of white bones, a truly gruesome sight. It was impossible to tell whether this straw figure was genuinely made of straw or transformed from the living dead.

But this is not the actual body of the bird that enters the enclosure; rather, it is the shell on which it resides.

The real creatures were the two bluish-purple birds that perched on the straw hat and the back of the shoulder, respectively.

"Young Onmyoji, what do you want?"

The bluebird, being watched, asked in a deep voice.

Its name is Yan, and it is one of the earlier birds that entered the inner realm, formed from resentment. It has a wealth of experience, having seen the powerful Genji and also encountered the Phoenix Fire, a lord-level great monster.

The little guy in front of him was able to find his true form at a glance, which made him look at him with more respect.

Of course, the most important reason is that it doesn't yet have the strength to deal with four monsters at the same time.

"Dichi, lend me your power."

"In exchange, I can grant you one request."

His words were concise and to the point.

Even if the other party is a relatively greedy monster, he treats them the same way.

"Okay, then please..."

The bluebird, wearing a straw hat of rice-yellow color, suddenly spoke.

Its name is Qing, and it is a sparrow that has just entered the palace from resentment. It lives with swallows and has an even more urgent desire to find the next body to parasitize.

Although the Onmyoji's vital signs are still very strong, it doesn't mind; it can wait.

"Qing! Shut up!"

However, before the newcomer could finish his request, his companion on the side had already shouted at him.

Having spent so much time with it, it understands its thoughts all too well. That longing for a host is indelible for every newborn larva, and it takes time to gradually suppress it.

But even if you really want it, you should still be mindful of the occasion!

Even if this young Onmyoji is foolish enough to agree to let them stay, what about the other yokai lurking around them?

Could they easily tolerate their Onmyoji being possessed by other yokai?

Especially the Snow Woman.

That was a powerful demon on par with Phoenix Fire. In the past, the fear of being dominated by the latter made Yan always cautious in everything she did.

Then, ignoring Qing's resentful look, he spoke on his own:

“Young Onmyoji, since you can easily distinguish our true forms, you obviously have some understanding of our race.”
