Youmu herself admitted this, and she also felt it during the battle with Musashi.

While secretly groaning, Youmu could only continue fighting like this.

At this moment, after watching Koizumi and Reimu leave, Ryougi Shiki continued to look at Caster.

The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception stared at Caster in front of him, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

"It's really scary... It feels like I'm facing the Journey to the West monster again..."

Ryougi Shiki chuckled, her eyes focused on Caster in front of her, and her red lips parted slightly.

"Caster... your opponent is me... Of course, I don't mind letting the Servant who holds the power of rules fight me... I also want to try, can these eyes of mine give [Pure Death] [Death]..."

Chapter 362: Monster Mountain (Part 1)

Koizumi and Reimu finally left this dangerous place, at least escaping the pursuit of Konpaku Youmu.

With Musashi and Ryougi Shiki there to stop them, the other side couldn't catch up with Koizumi and the others.

According to Reimu's perception, Musashi's combat power is not weak, not to mention that Musashi himself is a swordsman, which is different from Reimu. People like Reimu have some difficulty dealing with Konpaku Youmu, but they can still compete with each other because of their job. If it is Caster or Archer, I am afraid the winner will be decided in a short time.

So if it is left to Musashi, it will be easier to deal with Konpaku Youmu.

"Is your right hand okay? Master... that deathly aura is a bit exaggerated..."

Reimu looked seriously at Koizumi's right hand, which was wrapped in deathly energy, and felt a wave of worry in her heart.

Koizumi chuckled and shook his head. "Don't worry. Although my right hand can't move for now, I used the Great Fairy's Noble Phantasm to repair it before I left. It's not fully healed, but I think it should be fine."

That's just what you think! Reimu wanted to say that, but seeing Koizumi's expression, she could only sigh silently and let him do whatever he wanted. She would only have to trouble Komachi or Eihime when she got to hell.

After all, one is the ferryman of the Sanzu River, and the other is the King of Hell of the Court of Right and Wrong. They should be able to deal with this kind of death energy, and it should be no problem for Koizumi to recover.

"They shouldn't be a problem, right? I've heard of Miyamoto Musashi, but who is Ryougi Shiki? And those eyes..."

Koizumi's brows furrowed slightly, a look of doubt on his face, mixed with a certain amount of worry.

However, Koizumi also knew that it was pointless to just worry here; the most important thing now was to get to Hell.

Since the other party wanted to stop him from going to hell, it meant that there really was something in hell...

Maybe once I get to hell, I will know what happened in this singularity, so I have to go to hell quickly.

Reimu nodded slightly, the so-called worry still on her face, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

"I'm not too sure, but I know one thing, Miyamoto Musashi's strength is not inferior to Youmu's. Youmu's power increase is mainly strengthened in the magic reserve. I lost the confrontation with Youmu mainly because of my own magic reserve. Even if you can sign contracts with more beings in Gensokyo, compared with the one with almost endless magic power, I can never compare with him..." Having said that, Reimu couldn't help but show a helplessness on her face.

This was also what made Reimu most frustrated. If she was outmatched in combat power, it would be fine, but she was completely defeated in terms of magic power reserves. How could anyone tolerate this? This was actually a war of attrition that she lost!

"What about Miyamoto Musashi..." Koizumi turned his gaze to Reimu beside him, wanting to continue asking.

"Youmu's swordsmanship hasn't changed at all, and is practically the same as it was in life. And facing Miyamoto Musashi, who is famous for his swordsmanship, it will definitely turn into a showdown of swordsmanship in the end, so there's no need to worry about anything happening there."

After all, Reimu is completely different from her opponent, and basically every move requires a lot of magic power to deal with.

Because this is how Reimu's moves are, a completely different fighting style from Miyamoto Musashi.

So this is how it turns out when the fighting style is different, and Reimu is helpless about it.

"So should we wait for them next?" Koizumi asked with a hint of curiosity.

Koizumi didn't mind waiting for them here. After all, the fighting power of the two of them plus Musashi and the other two could definitely fight against Konpaku Youmu and the others... So waiting here was not something that was unacceptable.

"Let's go to the Monster Mountain first. We'll wait for them near the Monster Mountain. If we want to go to hell, we must pass through the Monster Mountain."

Reimu said this, and Musashi and the others knew their destination, so there was no need to worry.

If they want to follow us, they will definitely go in the direction of Youkai Mountain, so don't worry.

Of course, if they didn't catch up before nightfall, Reimu would just go straight to hell.

They can't waste time here, so sometimes they have to make some helpless decisions.

If you don't do this, you won't be able to accomplish anything big. This is also a skill that a leader must possess.

Furthermore, Reimu believed that if it were Koizumi, he would definitely make the same decision.

"I understand. If they don't show up tonight, we'll head to Hell right away. We can't waste any time..." Koizumi nodded silently, a hint of coldness flashing across his eyes. This was also a helpless move.

Just as Reimu was thinking, Koizumi himself understood the burden he had on him and the decision he had to make.

Reimu nodded silently. She knew what Koizumi meant without him having to explain...

This is a very normal decision. If it were me, I would make the same choice.

"Let's go to Monster Mountain, but remember to be careful. Monsters are patrolling there at all times. None of those Crow Tengu are vegetarians. And...if Wenwen is born by now, it will be troublesome."

As if she had thought of something, Reimu showed a distressed look on her face and sighed slightly.

Koizumi nodded slightly, a look of understanding on his face. Although he didn't know Wenwen, he knew that someone who could cause Reimu so much trouble was undoubtedly a troublesome person. However, what Koizumi didn't know was that the trouble Reimu was thinking of was a private matter. It was Wenwen's fault for being so gossipy...

Monster Mountain is not the name of a mountain, but a general term for a mountain range. There are many monsters living here, but the Tengu are the most united among them, and they have also made quite a name for themselves among the monsters. When people mention Monster Mountain, the first thing they think of is the Tengu race.

The youkai of the mountain live in a separate society, distinct from humans and the youkai below. Even after entering Gensokyo, Youkai Mountain has served as a crucial balance point for the city. The Tengu and Kappa, in particular, possess technological prowess comparable to, or even surpassing, that of the outside world. Rumor has it that the interior of the mountain is a vast cavern, where people live a paradise-like existence reminiscent of the outside world's future.

Lingjiu Yilin, also known as the Great Tengu, has a very high reputation among the Tengu except for the demons.

However, she is a short girl wearing incongruous high wooden clogs. Although she has the strength of a big monster of the same level as Yakumo Yukari, she often worries about her height, otherwise she wouldn't have to wear stilts.

"Hmm... this aura..." Lingjiu Yilin's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes looked upwards.

Suddenly, a gap opened up, and Lingjiu Yilin was slightly startled. This is a gap! Could it be Yakumo Yukari?

That’s right, only Yakumo Yukari has this ability. After all, the gap monsters are a different race of monsters.

"Hey, hey, Lingjiu Yilin, you're still the same... But standing on stilts makes it easy for people to see your lower body... Be careful that your panties are targeted by some psychopathic people..."

The teasing tone made Lingjiu Yilin's cheeks blush, and then the corners of her mouth twitched violently.

"Yakumo Yukari... you're still as disgusting as ever..."

Slowly, Yakumo Yukari stuck her head out from the gap with an ambiguous smile on her face.

Chapter 363: Monster Mountain (Part 2)

"This is the Youkai Mountain... I really saw some beautiful scenery..."

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Koizumi couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise on his face. For some reason... it still felt very familiar.

But this is also normal. Koizumi has already determined that he had a close connection with Gensokyo before he lost his memory.

So it's perfectly normal for Koizumi to think he's very familiar with everything in Gensokyo's past...

However, Koizumi was ready to slip away at any moment, because according to Reimu, if he stayed here too long, he would be discovered by the monsters on the Monster Mountain, and then...

In this era, the relationship between humans and monsters is really not good, not to mention that the Tengu clan has a very strong sense of territory. Once someone invades, it is likely to trigger a battle. That's why Reimu didn't follow. She knew very well that if she broke into the Monster Mountain, it would not be a small matter, but a big matter. At that time, being beaten up would be a small matter!

Koizumi still has the aura of a youkai, so there's no need to worry about anything going wrong.

In addition, the Crow Tengu of Gensokyo are still sleeping inside Koizumi's body. Perhaps because of this cause and effect, the Tengu clan's favorability towards Koizumi will not be too low, so Reimu is not worried about Koizumi coming here.

What's more, at worst, he could use the opportunity and then say that he was related to Yakumo Yukari.

One thing everyone knows is that there is currently only one gap monster, Yakumo Yukari. If they knew that there was someone else who could use the gap, they would subconsciously think that the other person was related to Yakumo Yukari. As for whether Yakumo Yukari would come to them, there is no need to worry about that. After all, Koizumi really has the aura of a gap monster, so being mistaken for a gap monster is not a problem.

Even Yakumo Yukari wouldn't be able to tell Koizumi's race after she uses Yakumo Yukari's power...

After all, with Koizumi's appearance, it's really hard to tell his race... He possesses the powers of a vampire, a gap-youkai, and a nature spirit. This is really...

Even Reimu couldn't help but smile bitterly. This kind of existence must be unique in the world...

"But then again, we have to be careful, otherwise it would be really easy for people to notice..."

Koizumi glanced briefly at the Youkai Mountain, but then a look of doubt appeared on his face.

So, what's going on? Why does it always feel so quiet in Youkai Mountain... too quiet, perhaps?

Koizumi covered his right hand slightly, a wry smile appearing on his face. This was really troublesome.

If I get caught here, I probably won't be able to defeat them even if I give it my all...

Koizumi knew full well that in his current state, even a few small monsters could kill him...

His current state was truly weak and frustrating, Koizumi sighed slightly.

"Strange, why don't we see any monsters? Isn't this the Mountain of Monsters? There should be a lot of monsters here."

Koizumi's eyes flickered with doubt as he glanced at the Youkai Mountain.

As he spoke, Koizumi slowly walked around the area, a look of confusion on his face.

What Koizumi didn't know was that somewhere in the Youkai Mountain, Reijiu Irin was watching Koizumi wandering around the Youkai Mountain, standing on stilts with an amused look on his face.

On the side, Yakumo Yukari had half of her body sticking out of the gap with a big smile on her face.

However, the look contained in this smile made people feel that it had bad intentions, at least that was what Lingjiu Yilin thought.

If I hadn't considered the devastating impact of a fight between her and Yakumo Yukari, Lingjiu Yilin would have wanted to slap her across the face! This lolita is standing on stilts, so majestic, and yet you're actually opening a gap right above my head. Don't you want my dignity, Great Tengu? It's like I've been completely trampled under your feet.

Being tall is fine! I can tolerate that! But I'm taller than you on stilts, and you're still a head taller than me!

"Is that the human you asked me to help? He does have your scent on him..."

Having said that, Lingjiu Yilin showed an inexplicable look on her face, as if she couldn't see through the other person.

"Don't overthink it. I'm just from another parallel world. You know that after connecting to the source, I'll automatically merge with the existence named Yakumo Yukari in each world, just like that old man, Jewel. My little Master is from the same parallel world as me. You also know what's happening in this world right now, but it's just not easy to intervene, right? My little Master is here to solve it, so—"

"I leave it to you... Lingjiu Yilin..." As she said this, Yakumo Yukari opened the folding fan in her hand and covered her face.

Lingjiu Yilin couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. If it wasn't the right time, he really wanted to beat the other person up.

However, she also knew that it was not easy for her to interfere in these matters. After all, the events in this singularity involved too wide a range, so wide that as a great demon, it was not easy for her to interfere in matters involving places like hell. What's more, Lingjiu Yilin was not interested in these things, so she did not interfere too much.

Everyone has his own responsibilities, and Daitengu's responsibility is to protect the Tengu clan on the Monster Mountain.

"This is really troublesome... I understand. For the time being, Youkai Mountain will turn a blind eye to matters related to this human. But remember, if they fight on Youkai Mountain, I will treat them as enemies... So remember... I will not show mercy!"

Having said that, Lingjiu Yilin showed a wicked smile and looked at Yakumo Yukari in front of him.

She seemed to hope to see a hint of panic on Yakumo Yukari's face, and she would be satisfied if that happened!

After all, it was always the sinister Yakumo Yukari who played tricks on others, and she also wanted to scare this youkai sage Yakumo Yukari...

Even if she shows a slightly wrong expression, her emotions will be satisfied.

But unfortunately, Yakumo Yukari just chuckled and waved her hand, making a "please" gesture.

"I have absolutely no objection. This is a good opportunity to train our little Master. There's still a lot of power in our little Master that hasn't been developed yet. The more critical the situation, the more potential can be stimulated..."

Lingjiu Yilin's mouth twitched fiercely, and seeing that the other party was not fooled, he could only shake his head helplessly.

She was just joking. In fact, for some reason, she couldn't hate the other person when she saw him for the first time, so how could she possibly do anything to him!

But then again, Yakumo Yukari must have seen this clearly before saying this...

Lingjiu Yilin, who noticed this, couldn't help but curl her lips. It was really annoying.

Chapter 364: Ryougi Shiki

"Huh~~Are you okay, Miss Shiki..." Musashi looked at Ryougi Shiki who was holding a katana, with a hint of worry on his face.

The kimono-clad beauty Ryougi Shiki smiled slightly and nodded, with a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

While interacting with Ryougi Shiki, Miyamoto Musashi also guessed that the other party might have a similar dual personality.

If the girl in the red coat who looks a bit like a man is like an Assassin, then the beauty in kimono is equivalent to a Saber, a Saber like himself. Although he really wants to compete with her, Miyamoto Musashi also knows that if he fights with her, it will be difficult to defeat her.

Just the opponent's eyes, like the god of death reaping lives, were enough to make Musashi feel that he had no chance of winning.

Fortunately, Ryougi Shiki is not his enemy, otherwise Musashi would have a headache.

Musashi breathed a sigh of relief, glanced around, and frowned slightly.

"Don't worry, the enemies around here have all left. That half-human, half-spirit and that Caster have already left, so don't worry... Now the most urgent thing is to quickly catch up with that Master, otherwise we won't be able to catch up!"

Ryougi Shiki said this with a chuckle, and at the same time, bursts of light particles emanated from her body.

Musashi was used to it, it had happened once before, and this was a sign of the transition between personalities.

What Musashi wants to complain about is that it’s just a dual personality, why does the personality transition have to be so grand!

But forget it. If someone likes such gorgeousness, what else can she do? She can only watch it silently as a special effect.

"By the way... Mr. Musashi, I hope you don't tell Shiki about my affairs... otherwise I will have a headache..." As she said this, Ryougi Shiki looked at Miyamoto Musashi in front of her, and only relaxed after Miyamoto Musashi nodded.

That's good. If my affairs were to be made known to others, it would be a bit troublesome.

Although this is not a big problem for Ryougi Shiki, she has become accustomed to this and still does not want her affairs to be known by Ryougi Shiki, so it is better to keep it this way.
