Across the heavens, I am the Avatar Sword Master

Chapter 229 Jin Shanshan's Punishment and Test

Vimana.

The king's throne that can soar into the sky.

A shining "boat" made of gold and emeralds that can fly in the sky.

It is a flying tool recorded in the two great narrative poems of ancient India, "Ramayana" and "Mahabharata".

Powered by solar energy generated by mercury-fueled solar crystals, it can fly at high speeds, ignoring the laws of physics.

It has powerful attack power, is equipped with various treasure systems and even has excellent weapons such as ancient nuclear warheads.

But in Gilgamesh's eyes, it was just a tool for traveling.

Tousaka Tokiomi stood on Vimana and looked down at the entire Enzo Mountain.

"King, there is a powerful barrier on the top of Mount Enzo with Ryudo Temple as the base point. It is a specialized anti-spirit barrier that can repel souls other than natural spirits. It can only be entered through the mountain road."

"Then go down."

Archer sat leisurely on the throne of Vimana. After tapping the seat twice with his fingers, the entire Vimana slowly descended to the steps.

Although the ability to fly Vimana is convenient, the rest of the journey will require walking.

After Archer and Tōsaka Tokiomi came down from the Vimana, the Vimana turned into golden light and was taken back by Archer into the King's Treasure.

Following Archer, the two came to the halfway point of Mt. Yuanzang.

"King, the entrance to the Great Void is ahead. The entrance is disguised with an illusion barrier, so it is difficult for outsiders to find it."

Tousaka Tokiomi said, pointing to a hidden cave entrance on the mountainside.

The entrance to the mountain was carefully camouflaged with an illusion-like barrier. It looked like a real mountain, but once you touched it, you would know that it was just an illusion.

As the manager of Fuyuki City, he was well aware of the situation inside the Great Hollow.

In addition to the Holy Grail magic circle based on Justisia, there is a huge reserve of magic power, which would make ordinary people without any foundation in magic feel uncomfortable if they get close to it.

Even the monks who practiced in Liudong Temple were only guarding the spiritual veins to prevent them from being exploited and destroyed, and they had no idea what was happening in the big cave.

"Huh, it's hard for outsiders to find out?"

Archer snorted coldly and strode towards the cave entrance.

Tōsaka Tokiomi followed closely behind, but his heart was filled with uneasiness.

He didn't understand what he said wrong that made Archer unhappy again, so he had no choice but to follow.

As the two went deeper into the cave, the surroundings became increasingly cold and damp.

However, the scene before him made Tōsaka Tokiomi's eyes widen instantly.

"What...what's going on?"

The entire cave was in a mess, with dozens of corpses lying on the ground, all wearing church uniforms.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made people feel sick.

Tōsaka Tokiomi's face turned pale, and he asked in a trembling voice: "King...who are these people..."

Archer glanced at the corpses on the ground with contempt and said lightly, "Oh, you mean these bastards. When I came here for a walk before, they were so ignorant that they wanted to destroy my treasures, so I took advantage of it and killed them."

When Tōsaka Tokiomi heard these words, he felt dizzy.

He never expected that Archer would do such a thing.

He had been on good terms with the church since his grandfather's generation. Archer had killed so many people from the Holy Church, which would definitely cause a strong backlash from the church.

Unlike the scattered magic associations, the Holy Church was famous for its unity.

As the second largest organization in the world, its influence spreads throughout the world, centered in Western Europe.

The most famous is the department called the Burial Agency, which is a combat agency composed of the strongest personnel owned by the Church. It has great combat capabilities and can kill Servants even in human form.

"King, it's too risky for you to do this! The church will definitely..."

Before Tōsaka Tokiomi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Archer.

"Shut up, Tokiomi!" A dangerous light flashed in Archer's eyes, "It is not your turn to point fingers at my actions."

Tōsaka Tokiomi immediately lowered his head, not daring to say another word.

If this tyrant is really angered, the consequences will be disastrous.

Archer looked around the large empty environment and frowned in displeasure.

He dislikes the poor environment here.

"Tsk, this place is too dirty, not suitable for summoning the Holy Grail." He turned to Tōsaka Tokiomi, "Let's go to Ryuudou Temple."

After saying that, Archer strode towards Ryudo Temple.

Tōsaka Tokiomi could only follow closely behind him, his steps hurried, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

Even though I was so nervous, I still couldn't forget to maintain my image.

The mountain road was rugged and the stones made a crunching sound underfoot.

The air is filled with the fresh scent of earth and grass, and occasionally you can smell the scent of sandalwood coming from afar.

The sound of birds singing in the distance blends with the rustling of leaves in the mountain breeze.

As the two gradually approached Ryudo Temple, the solemn atmosphere became more and more intense.

The gate of the temple stands majestically, and the simple wooden structure exudes a sense of vicissitudes of time.

Archer pushed the door open without hesitation, and it creaked heavily.

The interior of the temple is quiet and spacious, with smooth stone slabs on the ground reflecting the moonlight.

Tōsaka Tokiomi carefully threw out a few gems and set up a barrier to hint at something.

Although the monks of Ryudo Temple are pure practicing monks.

However, they are not people who use their souls to achieve Buddhahood other than by chanting sutras, having faith, or praying. They are not like magicians or other sorcerers who possess supernatural powers, and they do not have the concept of magic power.

Easily affected by magic barriers.

Moreover, the Tousaka family is in charge of the sacred land of Fuyuki City. Tousaka Tokiomi and his predecessor have been converting the sacred land into commercial land and renting it out.

As the first spiritual vein of Fuyuki, the entire Mt. Enzo is considered the property of the Tohsaka family.

Archer and Tōsaka Tokiomi came to the pond behind the temple and felt the direction of the magic power flowing in the air.

The golden hair sparkled brightly in the moonlight.

Archer asked without turning his head, "Tokiomi, are you ready?"

Tōsaka Tokiomi bowed his head respectfully and asked in confusion, "King, I am always ready. Should I lure the enemy over now?"

According to the secret magic book of the Tohsaka family, only five Servants need to withdraw from the Holy Grail War, and the Greater Holy Grail will be activated because it has absorbed enough souls.

Now Assassin, Lancer, and Saber have left the stage, but there are still two people missing for the Holy Grail to come.

Tōsaka Tokiomi thought that Gilgamesh had only decided to use Mount Enzo as the location for the final battle.

A plan has been made to use magic to release a signal to attract the remaining Masters to gather at Yuanzang Mountain.

Archer turned around, a dangerous gleam in his eyes. "Very good. Then, let's get started now."

He stretched out his hand, and golden ripples spread in the air.

The Holy Grail reappeared, emitting a dim light.

Tōsaka Tokiomi's eyes widened: "King, are you planning to use the Holy Grail as bait?"

"That's right," Archer sneered, "The Lesser Holy Grail is the bait, and it is also the key to locating the Greater Holy Grail."

He slowly walked towards Tohsaka Tokiomi, a cruel smile on his face: "And you, Tokiomi, will be the container that holds it."

Tousaka Tokiomi suddenly felt a chill run down his spine: "Wh...what do you mean?"

Before he could react, Archer suddenly attacked and grabbed his tie.

"Tousaka Tokiomi!" Archer shouted, "Don't think I don't know your plan, Tokiomi! You want to kill all the Servants and activate the 'Greater Holy Grail'. Yes, kill all the Servants, including me. Only in this way can you use the Holy Grail to reach the root, am I right? Tokiomi..."

Tōsaka Tokiomi was shocked by Archer's words.

Because what Archer said was right, this was what he had originally planned.

After Archer defeats all the Servants, he will use the Command Spell to make Archer commit suicide so that he can have the Holy Grail alone.

Having his plan exposed by Archer, Tōsaka Tokiomi struggled backwards in fear: "Wait! Archer! What do you want to do? If you kill me, you will disappear too!"

"Don't worry, Tousaka Tokiomi. I originally thought you were a boring person, but I didn't expect you to have such thoughts. I am really impressed by you."

"Although you have a rebellious heart towards me, you are my magic power provider after all. Since I have decided to give you the Holy Grail, I will naturally not kill you."

Archer thrust the Small Holy Grail fiercely into Tōsaka Tokiomi's abdomen.

"But the death penalty can be forgiven, but the living crime cannot be pardoned. If you want to obtain the Holy Grail, you must withstand the test... Let me see if you are qualified to obtain the Holy Grail."

Blood gushed out from Toosaka Tokitoki's abdomen, directly staining his white shirt red.

Tōsaka Tokiomi curled up on the ground in pain, cold sweat soaking his clothes.

Archer looked at him coldly: "Bear with it, Tokiomi. What does this little pain mean? To fulfill your family's long-cherished wish, this price is nothing."

Tōsaka Tokiomi gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain: "Archer, why...why are you doing this?"

"Because it's fun, because it's a punishment for you and a test for you."

Archer looked down at him condescendingly: "Originally, the Holy Grail this time was in human form, so it is natural that this Holy Grail needs to use the human part to operate. The Holy Grail cannot be completed without a container to carry it, and you are very suitable to be the container of the Holy Grail."

Tōsaka Tokiomi raised his head with difficulty, his eyes filled with confusion and anger: "But... this is too dangerous! I might die!"

Archer said dismissively, "Die? Humph, don't think too highly of yourself, Tokiomi. You won't die. If you were truly a capable magus, you could control this power."

Tōsaka Tokiomi felt a surge of despair in his heart.

He never expected that the Servant he had summoned with such care would do such a thing to him.

"Archer...you betrayed me..." Toosaka Tokiomi said weakly.

Archer sneered, "Betrayal? Don't be naive, Tokiomi. You repeatedly advised me as a subject and did not carry out the assassination at the banquet I hosted. You offended my dignity. I was generous enough not to ask you to commit suicide."

Tōsaka Tokiomi closed his eyes and felt the power of the Holy Grail flowing in his body.

He knew that he could no longer change the current situation.

"So...what should we do next?" Tōsaka Tokiomi asked with difficulty.

"Use the magic circuit to connect to the Holy Grail and control it. Let me see whether you control the Holy Grail or are controlled by it."

At the moment when Tōsaka Tokiomi subconsciously followed Archer's words and connected the Magic Circuit to the Lesser Holy Grail, something strange happened.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

“It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts…”

The blood vessels are expanding.

It felt like there were billions of worms crawling inside his body. Intense pain instantly swept through Tohsaka Tokiomi's body and he let out a shrill scream.

The pain was comparable to that of a mother giving birth, and it constantly assaulted Tōsaka Tokiomi's spirit.

The air became damp, and a fishy and rotten smell came from Tōsaka Tokiomi.

The channel of the magic circuit was violently opened by the impact of magic power.

The body was shaking.

The body is constantly expanding.

The body is growing rapidly.

The exposed flesh and blood vessels are born and die at a rapid speed.

Flesh and blood reproduce, flesh and blood perish.

The Holy Grail is constantly adjusting and adapting to its new object.

Toosaka Tokiomi was also desperately using his willpower to hold on, not allowing himself to completely degenerate into an inhuman monster.

In a trance, Tōsaka Tokiomi seemed to see black mud rolling around like waves in the sea.

Everywhere there were mountains of dried corpses, which were constantly floating in the black sea.

The sky is red, as red as blood.

The dark sun dominated the sky, and endless black rain fell from the sky.

Even the blowing wind is full of curses and complaints.

"Where...is this?"

"This is the place where all your wishes can be fulfilled. It is the inside of the Holy Grail you are pursuing."

A dark figure emerged from the black mud and quickly condensed into a human shape.

It looks like an Einzbern puppet, but it is wearing more gorgeous clothes.

Tōsaka Tokiomi recognized the woman in front of him at a glance.

She is the android accidentally created by the Einzbern family two hundred years ago, who later became the basis of the Greater Holy Grail and the great magician known as the "Holy Maiden of Winter" - Justisa Rizleich von Einzbern.

The heavenly clothes he wears are the best proof of this.

She is the foundation of the Holy Grail. Ten years after the millennium, Machiri Zorgen, Tousaka Nagato, Jewelon and others witnessed Justisa transform into the core of the Holy Grail.

Being squeezed (squeezed) by the giant stone pillar, her blood flowed all over the magic circle. The circuit in the large cavity with a diameter of one kilometer, like the surface covering the crater of a volcano, was the result of the continuous expansion and appreciation of her magic circuit.

This magic circuit with a diameter of one kilometer close to the Holy Grail is the Holy Grail's Great Magic Array.

"Winter Saint? You said... this is the inside of the Holy Grail?"

"Yes, but you don't need to be afraid. This is just like an unformed dream."

Justisa pointed her finger toward the sky.

"Look, that is the way to transcendence you seek, that is the hole that you seek to reach the root."

Tōsaka Tokiomi raised his head and looked at the position of Yustiza's finger.

What was in the sky was not a black sun, but a black vortex like a black hole.

That is the center of this world, the hole that connects to the root.
