Chapter 401 The Kingdom of Ghosts

The next day, Yichen took Katsuyuki, Xia Yue, and the fragments of the heretic golem and flew away from Iwanin Village.

The country of ghosts, the capital city.

To show respect, Yichen did not fly directly into the capital of the ghost country, but chose to land some distance away from the capital.

Yichen took Shengyou, Xia Yue and two little tailed beasts into the capital of the ghost country, and immediately attracted the attention of the ghost country's civilians.

Although Yichen didn't wear the coquettish Tsuchikage cloak, the iwa ninja foreheads on the heads of the three still told everyone their ninja identities.Coupled with the two strange-looking ninja beasts, the civilians in the kingdom of ghosts naturally feared.

Not long after Yichen and the others entered the ghost country, a guard appeared in front of them.

The leader bowed to Yichen, and asked, "My lord, Dongying, the leader of the guard of the shrine maiden, may I ask your Excellency, but is this Tsuchikage-sama of Iwanin Village?"

"I'm Yichen." Yichen replied with a nod.

The guard leader named Dongying said quickly: "Master Tuying, this way please, Mr. Miko and Advisor Zhi Zihui from Guicun are in the mansion of Mr. Miko."

Yichen nodded and said, "Thank you."

Guided by Dong Ying, the group arrived at the gate of the witch's mansion, where the current maiden, Maitreya, was holding the maiden Ziyuan in the original book, and she was standing with Zhi Zihui to welcome Yichen.

Yichen quickly stepped forward and spoke first, "Yanren Village Yichen has seen Your Excellency the Witch."

Maitreya said: "Master Tuying, please come in."

After a while of politeness, Yichen directly talked about the business: "Your Majesty, Zhi Zihui should have made it clear to you why I am here. I wonder if Your Majesty has a clear answer?"

The witch Maitreya nodded and said: "As I told Zhi Zihui before, if Mr. Tsuchikage can help us completely solve the monsters, then our country of ghosts is willing to follow the example of the country of snow and agree to the establishment of a branch of Iwanin village here."

Yichen nodded and said, "I understand."

After a pause, Yichen said again: "As far as I know, the sprite and the witch are one body, the sprite is the soul, and the witch is the body, right?"

The witch Maitreya shook, and little Ziyuan, who was crawling on her lap, looked up at her mother strangely, and then turned her curious eyes to Yichen - the two little tailed beasts beside her.

Little Rhinoceros and Little Chongming were also looking at Little Ziyuan. If the atmosphere wasn't too serious, the two tailed beasts would have already run towards Little Ziyuan.

Taking a deep breath, after hearing Yichen's words, Maitreya was both shocked and expectant.

What was shocking was that Yichen actually knew this secret that only the shamans of the past generations knew. What I expected was that since Yichen knew this secret, he dared to propose annexing the kingdom of ghosts. Maybe there is a way.

So Mitreya asked: "Lord Tukage is right. The sprite and the witch are originally one. The so-called seal is to suppress the sprite with the power of the same source. And the price of sealing the sprite is the life of the witch. "

Zhi Zihui next to her was stunned when she heard this, neither Yichen nor Miko had ever told her about these things.She thought that the sprite was a monster similar to a tailed beast. It turned out that there was still such a relationship between sprite and witch.No wonder it is the mission of the witch to seal the sprites, but how did Teacher Yichen know this?
Zhi Zihui suddenly remembered the situation when she first met the witch Maitreya.Maitreya did not welcome her arrival, and only entertained her politely out of diplomatic courtesy.When she proposed the idea of ​​Yan Ninja Village, Maitreya directly rejected it.

But when Zhizihui relayed Yichen's words, Maitreya hesitated.

Zhi Zihui clearly remembered what Yichen said: "Xiaohui, if the current witch doesn't agree, you can ask her: Does she want her daughter to face the same choice in the future?"

Zhi Zihui didn't know the deep meaning of these words, but just repeated the original words.

Who would have thought that after hearing these words, Maitreya's original firm attitude immediately disappeared and became wavering.

Afterwards, Maitreya invited Zhi Zihui to stay, and his expression and tone were obviously conflicted.

After another month or so, Maitreya finally made up his mind and agreed to Iwanin Village's request.

Now Zhi Zihui understands that if Maitreya can't completely solve the monster, then the responsibility will fall on the cute little princess beside her.

Yichen nodded and said: "Your Majesty, since we have reached a consensus, from now on, our interests are the same. I will try my best to seal the monsters, and I hope that Your Excellency will cooperate fully."

"How does Master Tuying want me to cooperate?" Maitreya asked.

"I need all the information about the sprites in the kingdom of ghosts, and all the information related to the sealing technique of the witches. Afterwards, when sealing the sprites, you should also use the power of the witches." Yichen replied.

Maitreya hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement. If the demons can be completely eliminated, then these things will no longer be meaningful.

However, when Maitreya asked people to move out box after box of books, Yichen was dumbfounded, swallowed his saliva, and said incredulously, "So many?"

Maitreya sighed, and said: "Our lineage of witches has been sealing sprites for many generations. These are the materials left by the witches of the past generations. It contains the training methods and experience of the witches of the past generations, as well as all the information about sprites."

Yichen nodded, and then began sorting books with his disciples.Zhi Zihui didn't come alone this time, she also brought her second batch of three disciples.The four of them also sorted with Yichen, Xiayue, and Shengyou.

Maitreya did not watch the fun, but stepped forward to help everyone research the information together.

Yichen is very good at how to deal with a huge amount of documents.

After a simple classification, Yichen gave Katsumata and Xia Yue the content related to sprites or yin dungeons, and Zhi Zihui and her staff with the content related to the training of witches in the past. disciple.

Yichen himself chose to watch the notes of important events of the witches of the past.

Maitreya, on the other hand, explained the confusion for everyone.

Little Ziyuan plays with Little Rhinoceros and Little Chongming on the sidelines every day.Every day, Xiao Ziyuan kept laughing, which made the tedious process of checking information for Yichen and others not so difficult.

There are too many materials, and it takes longer than Yichen expected.

It took a group of people nearly ten days to sort out the materials.

In the end, Yichen and others sorted out a small pile of materials that might be useful.

Yichen spent another day going through the materials carefully.

Then Yichen didn't go directly to Yaoyao, but carefully analyzed the information of Yaoyao together with Xia Yue and Shengyou.

By analogy, the three of Yichen feel that they have gained a lot, and they have improved in Yin escape.

In this way, it took more than ten days before and after Yichen and his party officially started to go to the sealed place of the sprites.

In the original book, sprites rebelled and were finally sealed in the swamp country by Maitreya at the cost of his life.

But now the place where the monsters are sealed is not in the country of swamps, but in the country of ghosts.

Yichen has read relevant records in the materials, and this is the fixed location of the witches and monsters of the past dynasties.It may be more accurate to put it another way, the witches of all ages only need to go there to strengthen the seal.

Maitreya, holding Ziyuan in his arms, brought Yichen, Zhizihui, Xiayue and Shengyou to the place where the monsters were sealed.

This is a valley, and there is a natural cavity in the valley, and the sprites are sealed in it.

But when the six of them reached the edge of the valley, Maitreya's expression changed drastically.Immediately run quickly to the natural hollow in the valley.

Yichen and the others quickly followed.

"There's something wrong with the seal." It was Yichen who spoke.

Although the seal of the maiden lineage was different from the conventional seal, it was easy to find the problem with Yichen's attainments.

Maitreya did not answer, but quickly entered the cave.

After seeing the complete seal in the cave, Yichen and Maitreya breathed a sigh of relief. The seal was still there, but there was a small gap.

"It is impossible for sprites to get rid of the seal with just such a gap. But sprites have a special shape, and some souls should have escaped from this place." Yichen said.

Seeing that Maitreya wanted to strengthen the seal, Yichen said, "Don't worry, let's study it first."

Maitreya took a deep breath and didn't insist.Things have already happened, and now even if the seal is strengthened, it will be impossible to retrieve the part of the sprite's soul that came out of the seal.

Yichen carefully checked the gap in the seal, and said: "Someone voluntarily acted as a container for sprites and left here with some sprites' souls!"

Upon hearing this, Maitreya blurted out, "Impossible. No one but the witch can bear the power of monsters."

Yichen said: "Naturally, other people cannot fully bear the sprites, but it is not impossible to bear some of them."

At this time, Maitreya was a little confused, she hugged Ziyuan tightly, and asked Yichen: "Lord Tuying, what should we do next?"

Yichen thought for a while and said: "Two things, first, get rid of the main body of the sprites that are still here. Second, find and deal with the souls of the sprites that have escaped."

"The second matter, we have no idea now, so we can only solve the first matter first. Your Excellency Miko, please calm down. The more accidents you encounter, the more calm you are. Your mentality will not help you deal with sprites later. .”

"In fact, it may be a good thing for us to lose part of the soul of the sprite. At least we can deal with this part of the soul of the sprite's main body much easier."

Maitreya nodded, feeling a little restless.

Yichen thought for a while and said, "The sprite's goal must be to get out of trouble. Although we don't know what the part of its soul is going to do, we will definitely come back and release its main body."

"So we are here to sit on the sidelines and wait for that part of the soul to come back."

Hearing this, Maitreya felt a little relieved.

Standing from the perspective of the seal master, Yichen carefully observed the broken seal for a while.

While observing, Yichen would ask Maitreya when he encountered something he didn't understand.It's just that although Maitreya can arrange the seal, the principle is not very clear, and there is not much help for Yichen.

The seals of witches in the past are more instinctive, just like the blood lineage inherited through bloodlines, they will be used once awakened, but the principle is not clear.

Yichen is still guessing more often, and then discusses his guessing and analysis with Xia Yue and Shengyou.

Maitreya originally thought that Yichen was just checking the seal, but unexpectedly, the three of Yichen studied it together for several days without sleep.

What Maitreya didn't know was that the three of Yichen had made great progress in their research on Yin Dun through this seal.

This seal, together with the information compiled before, is a set of systematic theories related to the soul.

This is different from the temple that was moved back to Yanren Village by Yichen.The temple is just an example related to the soul, but has no theoretical basis.

So when the three of Yichen studied the seal, they almost forgot about the sprites.

A few days later, the three people who had made progress in Yin escape, although tired, looked energized.
