According to legend, Penglai Island often floats with the tide.
It also reflects the fact that in addition to disappearing periodically due to time cycles, Penglai Island’s position in space is actually not fixed... It will naturally drift randomly on the sea, and it can also Intentionally changing the orientation of appearance through some degree of external interference.
As the current person in charge of the island, Gu Mo took a brief look at his permissions, especially through the integration of the dog system, he can better and intuitively know what he can do.
Including adjustments to the Barrier of Time, controlling where Penglai Island appears...
These are also part of the authority of the island administrator.
Although there are still restrictions, at least the island can be brought close to the boundary of the land, and the movement can be achieved in disguise through the time and space changes of the island's own coordinates... Gu Mo feels that the value of this alone is completely worth it. The last golden key was invested.
When we arrived, we flew over the sea for a long time before arriving at Penglai Island.
However, on the way back, if you leave Horai Island directly, you can see the land at the end of the sea level in the distance, and you will be able to return to Tokyo in a short time.
This comparison is still very intuitive and obvious, and it probably greatly reduces the pressure on the dead soul insects.
When the two returned to Higurashi Shrine, the night was getting darker and quieter. After all, it was close to midnight, and the shrine had long been unattended. Higurashi's family had fallen asleep early, and they had been keeping watch. Inuyasha and Higurashi Kagome from the Well of Bone Eaters probably went back to the Warring States Period long ago.
After all, there is no way that they can stay here and do nothing. If they can't stop the two of them, they will keep waiting... Just thinking about this kind of thing, they know that it is completely unrealistic.
"Speaking of which, we have been away for more than a month..."
Gu Mo stood in front of the sacred tree, watching the ancient tree rustling in the night wind, then looking in the direction of the quiet ancestral hall, and couldn't help but sigh.
Including the previous stay time, he has stayed in this dungeon for nearly two months... In fact, considering that the time flow rate in the dungeon world and the real world is not equal, it seems that the former is always faster than the latter. There is no need to worry too much, but the problem is that he does not know the specific time flow rate ratio before going back.
Therefore, it is natural to have some restraint and not to go too far.
"Um……"
Kikyo responded softly, but didn't say anything. She just walked towards the ancestral hall and reached out to push open the closed wooden door.
Gu Mo scratched his cheek, exhaled softly, and followed. He had mentioned to Kikyo before that he was leaving, but she probably misunderstood something. The pretty face that was always calm and indifferent suddenly turned white, as if she couldn't believe it.
After further explanation later, it was explained that he was not about to pass away because his time was running out, but for some reasons, he wanted to return to his own world...
But after the misunderstanding was resolved, the miko seemed to become a little strange.
Although she didn't say anything at the time.
Jumping into the bone-eating well, he didn't feel anything. He seemed to be jumping from the mouth of the well. Then in less than a second, he felt a solid feeling under his feet. He just stepped on the solid mud at the bottom of the well. Gu Mo raised his head and then When I looked up, there was no longer a dark roof and beams above.
Instead, the forest sky dotted with moons and stars looks mysterious, deep and quiet.
At the same time, he raised his eyebrows at the bottom of the well.
He originally thought that after returning to this era, he would be able to sense Penglai Island at this time. With the help of the rule power of the dog system, he could take advantage of the loopholes in the authority... It was in this way that he could reasonably trigger the information about Penglai Island. The hidden branch of the island——
However.
He was probably half right, because at this moment, he clearly sensed the two Penglai Islands.
One should be the Penglai Island of this era...the other is the Penglai Island five hundred years in the future that I just bound to not long ago...
The latter is actually the same as his own equipment, following him under the power of the system, and also appears in this era? With a vague realization in his mind, Gu Mo suddenly felt that paying the handling fee for the dog system was more cost-effective. The so-called home system seemed to be much more powerful than he expected.
However, this is not the time to study it carefully.
He shook his head and reached out to grab the tough vines growing on the wall of the well next to him, using his strength to prepare to leave the bottom of the well.
The witch outside stood quietly outside the wellhead, looking at the night sky and stars in the distance. She didn't know what she was thinking. After Gu Mo also came out, she still didn't come back to her senses for a while.
"Without further ado, let's go directly there now... Now I know where Penglai Island is, and I can sense its direction."
When Gu Mo came to the side of the witch, he also raised his eyes to look at the sky. After a little estimation of the time, he said this decisively.
"..."
"..."
no respond.
"Platycodon?" Gu Mo blinked and asked softly, with a tentative tone.
The witch then looked in his direction, as if she was reacting, and remained silent for a while. She lowered her eyes slightly, nodded slightly, and her tone seemed as calm as usual: "Then. Go over now and resolve this matter as soon as possible..."
Staring quietly at the witch in front of him, Gu Mo was obviously a little confused.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Kikyo looked away and asked calmly.
Gu Mo opened his mouth first, seeming slightly hesitant and uncertain. He thought about it and said slowly: "Jikyong, how about this..."
The witch's long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she sighed silently in her heart. Although she just started, she basically knew what this person wanted to say, but... she still thought about it. With words, he was ready to make up his mind to refuse.
However--
At this time, the air suddenly became quiet.
Because Gu Mo just said the beginning and then stopped. He seemed to be thinking about something very seriously. In the end, he just smiled and shook his head, seeming to feel a little embarrassed: "Forget it, just treat me as nothing." You didn’t say it, don’t take it to your heart…”
Kikyo looked up at him in astonishment.
"..."
"..."
At this moment, the forest became even quieter, and the night wind seemed to have stopped completely.
"...Then let's go." After a while, the miko looked away from him. She nodded slowly, then lowered her eyes and said without any fluctuation in her tone.
My heart is a little confused...
Her hands hidden in her sleeves subconsciously tightened her clothes, and she didn't know why she had such complicated feelings at the moment. She had obviously made up her mind, but when the moment finally came, she still felt empty inside.
There was a smile in the other person's calm eyes.
It felt very regretful, but also tinged with relief.
…………
…
The dead soul insects flew under the night, crossing the mountains.
The two cast shadows on the ground that did not overlap.
Under the blowing of the night wind, Gu Mo stared ahead. The outline of the sea in the dark night had appeared at the end of the horizon. Even from a long distance, he could hear the sound of waves lapping on the shore... Spirit and Perception The perfect combination of mind's eye greatly enhanced his basic perception ability.
The spiritual idea is so powerful that even if it is not actively spread, the passive mental induction has a large range.
The mind's eye is within this range, combined with his basic perception ability, so that his spirit can be directly sensed within the range, and it seems that it can also receive external information through visual, auditory and other sensory perceptions, so as to further Improve the range of perception and the accuracy of perception.
Glancing to the side, Gu Mo pointed forward and said softly: "Penglai Island is over there. I made it appear as close to the seaside as possible..."
The witch nodded slightly and said nothing.
There seemed to be an awkward silence between the two of them, and it had been like this since just now.
Gu Mo withdrew his gaze and exhaled softly. He could already sense the emotional changes of others very keenly, so he just stopped abruptly because before he finished speaking, he already knew the result. Naturally, he could only Unfortunately, it was terminated directly...
Although it hasn't started yet, both parties already know what's going on.
So it's not surprising that the current atmosphere is a bit weird.
Sure enough, it was too hasty. What could we do with this little time? Gu Mo looked straight ahead calmly, not surprised by this result, because it was expected... As for emotions such as disappointment, it was natural, but this was normal, after all, he was still a human being.
If you really don’t have your own selfishness, your own thoughts, and no thoughts about what you want to get, then you won’t take any action in the first place.
Human nature is not an excuse to excuse oneself, but an objective fact, that is, human nature is like this, and it is impossible to have no selfish desires... In fact, in the final analysis, my starting point is no different from Naraku's, and there is no absolute The distinction between superior and inferior is that the latter will be destroyed if it cannot be obtained, turning into an absolutely twisted evil spirit.
Gu Mo thought seriously, trying not to let his emotions affect him.
It is impossible for people to have no selfish desires, but they can suppress wrong ideas and know what is right. Only then can they be called "people"... If you can't force something, there is no need to force it. Although the result is not perfect, but This journey remains a fond memory.
Just like the obsession of youth, a gorgeous but slightly regretful journey.
I have indeed changed some things...
This is enough...
Even though we couldn't solve the most troublesome Naraku, there was nothing we could do about it. He couldn't even touch him. With that old bastard's style, he might not be able to find anyone at all... So in the end, the BOSS was left to him. Let the protagonists go have a headache.
He couldn't help but glance at the miko next to him, wondering how he should give Kikyo a warning before he left. Although it was reasonable to say that Naraku probably wouldn't be able to develop this time, and he wouldn't become like his original destiny. A super BOSS that seems to have no solution——
Although this monster is a collection of thousands of monsters, it can still reorganize its body again and again on the day of weakness once a month, abandoning the weak parts and leaving the strong parts, allowing itself to be restored again and again. Becoming more powerful through optimizations...
It sounds like a cool and powerful ability, but in fact it is not.
Naraku's real transformation was completed when the Shikon Tama reappeared and the main plot lasted for about a year, and for the entire fifty years before that, was he on vacation... So the Shikon Tama If Jade does not reappear, then Naraku's abilities may seem cool, but in fact he is just a waste, and that will be the case for the rest of his life.
Now a full third of the fragments of the Four Souls Jade are here, and the remaining ones cannot be collected by Naraku. As long as Platycodon is a little stronger... No, it doesn't even need Platycodon to be powerful, as long as the protagonist joins them. If he works harder and collects more fragments, Naraku will definitely not be able to get a few fragments, and it will still be impossible for him to develop.
In the original world line, there was an arms race. It was a key node when Inuyasha mastered the wind wound, and he briefly suppressed Naraku and won the stage.
But after that, the situation gradually worsened. They failed to maintain their advantage over Naraku. The latter collected more and more fragments, transformed again and again, and constantly differentiated into new clones, becoming stronger and stronger, and finally The protagonist team is exhausted...
Now, it is completely possible to reverse all this.
"We're here...but it seems someone is a step ahead of us."
The witch's voice sounded. She stared at the end of the sea and sky in front of her, vaguely seeing a familiar yet unfamiliar island, and she was aware of the battle taking place on the island.
Powerful demon powers are colliding, the iconic light whip is whistling and whipping the atmosphere, and the wind is tearing and wailing, bringing about the terrifying secret that can kill hundreds of demons with one blow...
"The two dog brothers, they were both imprinted by the Four Fighters on the island. The moment I asked Penglai Island to appear, they were definitely the first to notice the situation. If they were nearby, than It's normal for us to come from Maple Village faster..."
Gu Mo's thoughts returned to reality and he said this casually.
There is no need to think too much. This is most likely the truth. The seals of the Four Fighters are a life and death battle. Inuyasha had problems with those monsters, and Sesshomaru regarded what happened as a great shame. , now naturally they all rushed over immediately.
"But this is good, we can relax..."
Gu Mo smiled and pointed forward.
"Let's go directly to the direction of the Roaring Cauldron. Let's talk to Suo Jitong first, get the jade box that seals the origin of the Four Fighters, and kill them all."
This is the whole tactic, simple and direct. Anyway, the origins of the Four Fighters have been sealed, and they are basically just hanging on. Moreover, he has only now mastered the correct management authority of the island. The home field advantage is on his side... If Gu Mo is more reckless and impulsive, he may still choose to put the Four Fighters away. After all the gods are killed, go find Suuji.
So looking at it this way, he is still more cautious.
Kikyo didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
She still maintains the barrier that hides her figure and aura, driving the dead soul insects to fly towards the interior of Penglai Island.
But just as she was passing over the beach, she suddenly frowned slightly and looked down as if she remembered something. It looked like the arrow from before... But at this moment, the beach seemed calm. None of them came.
"Huh?"
Someone next to her made a sound that represented surprise. The miko withdrew her gaze and looked in the direction of his gaze. She saw a small black dot flying towards the end of the horizon.
The speed is very fast, at least not something that the Death Soul Insect can match.
After getting close, it can be seen that it is a two-headed dragon monster, with its four legs and tail riding on flames, quickly cutting through the sky, like a burning meteorite entering the scope of Penglai Island, and in On the back of this monster, which obviously had dragon blood, was a little green-skinned monster that was taller than itself, and a little human girl.
"Ah! It's Lord Sesshomaru! Grandpa Xami, let's go there quickly!"
Holding tightly to the reins of the demonic beast's mount, the little human girl pointed to the corner of the island in the distance with a look of undisguised surprise in her eyes.
A blazing firebird was burning there, making an astonishing and ferocious cry, and was fighting with a one-armed nobleman opposite. It looked astonishingly powerful, with the flames capable of burning half of the sky. In fact, it was at a disadvantage, and it was almost disemboweled by the poisonous claws of the big dog on the opposite side several times!
"I know, I know...I saw it..."
Xie Jian responded repeatedly, but controlled the dragon beast to land directly on the edge of the island and landed on the beach.
"Grandpa Xijian..."
"I know, I know! Master Sesshomaru is busy now. Let's not get too close to disturb him, otherwise we will distract him... After he kills the turkey, why don't we go over there? Don't make any noise!" The little monster Xie Jian impatiently interrupted the disappointed words of the little human girl.
Really, I don’t know what Lord Sesshomaru is thinking...
Why bring such a human with you? Could it be that he is using it as food rations... But Sesshomaru-sama doesn't eat humans either...
Obviously it was just a test of the power of the natural teeth at that time. If it was saved, it would be saved. Why bring it with it... And this little girl has no eyesight at all. She really followed her so shamelessly, all the time Until now, I have to start taking care of her...
Thinking of this, Xie Jian felt upset and felt that he was about to fall out of favor.
Especially in the past few days, he noticed that Lord Sesshomaru seemed to be impatient with the little girl's liveliness and noisiness. He decisively seized the opportunity to make slanderous remarks, hoping that the little girl would be thrown away to die, without saying a word. After that, Sesshomaru-sama kicked him away...
"You know them? Why are you so surprised?"
In the barrier above, Kikyo frowned and asked. She didn't see anything strange about this combination.
"That little monster is a servant of Da Gouzi, and the mount also belongs to Da Gouzi..." Gu Mo replied loudly, "Did you see it? Da Gouzi actually brought a little human girl with him, and he seemed to be protective. It’s pretty good, isn’t this surprising enough?”
Just about a month after he left, it seems that some things have returned to their original point?
No wonder...
Just talk about how Inuyasha suddenly became so proficient in wind damage. From a distance, he could see the scene of this mystery breaking out frequently on the island.
