American Exorcism Male God

The massive gate had opened halfway, and Xu Yi heard murmuring voices in his ears, voices that would drive any common person into madness and cause their soul to fall into corruption.

There wasn't just one type of murmuring; it was tens of thousands of bizarre sounds gathering together, whispering in unison.

Xu Yi, in agony, clasped his head, burning his blood to activate the power of the Holy Flame, finally dispersing those murmurs.

The colossal gate connected to another world, a world that imprisoned a multitude of strangeness, Xu Yi suddenly realized.

The surge of weirdness raced toward the gate, blood-colored human-faced spiders, poison snakes with baby heads... They were almost frenzied with excitement as if they were devils imprisoned for millions of years and had suddenly seen the prison doors open.

Xu Yi's scalp tingled as he sensed presences behind the gate not inferior to that of the Evil Deity's dragon, and not just one of them. He barely managed to suppress the impulse to flee.

As the weirdness was about to burst through the gate, it was as if they had hit something, and their bodies were repelled and flung away.

Xu Yi let out a slight sigh of relief. Although these weird creatures seemed close at hand, the space between them was indeterminably vast.

The gate continued to open wide, and the black ashes gradually dissipated, revealing to Xu Yi's astonishment that there were still people standing unyielded inside.

A Great Onmyoji dressed in pure white hunter's garb stood shoulder-to-shoulder. The person on the left held a mirror shaped like a flower petal with eight tips, the back etched with many ancient characters.

The central round mirror resembled clear pond water with ripples flowing from time to time.

Xu Yi instantly recognized the mirror, one of Japan's three Holy Artifacts, the Yata Mirror.

The Great Onmyoji on the right held a long sword, two shaku and seven sun eight bu in length, the blade like an iris leaf, the body of the sword solid, the hilt resembling the joints of a fish, the color of the blade bone white.

This was a long sword nurtured within the Yamata no Orochi, an invisible wind wandering around the sword, continuously blowing away the black ash to protect the two of them.

The Sword of Gathering Clouds, one of Japan's three Holy Artifacts, also known as the Kusanagi Sword.

Along with the Yasakani no Magatama on Xu Yi, the three Holy Artifacts of Japan were gathered together.

Xu Yi fixed his gaze on the Yata Mirror and the Sword of Gathering Clouds, his eyes flickering with light.

The three Holy Artifacts of Japan required the bloodline of the Emperor to activate, and Xu Yi had no interest in becoming a so-called descendant of the Emperor.

But ever since he obtained the Yasakani no Magatama, a crazy idea had formed in his mind, which was to "merge" the three Holy Artifacts, then combine them with the Sin Remains to forge a Source of Woe weapon of his own!

Of course, for now, these were all just fantasies in his head; he only had the Yasakani no Magatama, nothing else.

The two Great Onmyoji lunged toward Skull Face as if they were archenemies who were particularly hostile upon meeting each other.

They survived with the help of the Holy Artifacts, but their disciples were not so fortunate; they perished in the black ashes.

The great battle was on the verge of erupting. Skull Face swung his Long Scythe to meet his opponents, tracing an arc of cold light.

Xu Yi had roughly figured out the strength of Skull Face; he was just a step away from the title of exorcist. Explore new worlds at My Virtual Library Empire

Far stronger than a Great Exorcist, but at the moment, he could only retreat in defeat.

With every slash of the Sword of Gathering Clouds, a howling Wind Blade followed, shredding everything it touched into pieces.

The ripples of the Yata Mirror reflected Skull Face's figure, making him feel as if his blood had frozen, his movements laborious.

The two Holy Artifacts were too powerful; Skull Face was no match and could only defend passively.

The Sword of Gathering Clouds suddenly changed its tactic, slashing toward the Sin Remains in Skull Face's hands.

In the midst of battle, Skull Face constantly shielded the Sin Remains, unwilling to put it away or to allow it to drift far from the gate.

This clearly related to a part of the ritual, and with the keen combat insight of a Great Onmyoji, he had long noticed this.

Skull Face's expression shifted subtly as he waved his Long Scythe instinctively, attempting to block. But the other Great Onmyoji had already closed in, the reflection of Skull Face in the Yata Mirror binding him, rendering him immobile.

The original target of the Sword of Gathering Clouds was to cut through Skull Face's wrist and snatch away the Sin Remains.

But at the final moment, Skull Face forcibly broke free from the bindings of the Yata Mirror, attempting to pull his hand back.

The Sword of Gathering Clouds severed the fingers, striking upon the Sin Remains with a crisp metallic clash.

The sharp Sword of Gathering Clouds could easily slice through steel, an expression less than adequate to describe its capability, yet not even a white mark was left on the Sin Remains it had struck.

The Sin Remains were blasted away, flying towards the high skies.

Xu Yi's eyes shone like incandescent lamps; his long-awaited opportunity had finally arrived!

He burst forth from the shadow in which he was hiding; his Body of Demigod at full speed, he instantly moved from the foot of Mount Fuji to halfway up the mountain.

Just as he was about to rush forward and snatch away the Sin Remains, a sudden sense of palpitation came over him.

He hesitated for a moment and then stopped, sliced open his own finger, and the blood that sprayed out formed red threads in the air.

This was the ability of the "Soul Jade" entry, the Binding Soul Thread.

The Binding Soul Thread was originally formed from congealed blood. Previously, when suppressing the Soul Jade, he had been afraid of losing too much blood, and he didn't have the ability to control his blood, so he had always used red threads stained with blood in its place.

After mastering the ability of "Blood as Sacred," he was now able to control his own blood.

But he had never tried it before; using it this time was a sudden stroke of inspiration. That gate was too peculiar; for the sake of caution, it was still safer to use the Binding Soul Thread.

The Binding Soul Thread wrapped around the Sin Remains, and Xu Yi was overjoyed. He yanked hard, attempting to pull the Sin Remains back towards him.

Skull Face, seeing the Sin Remains about to be taken away, bellowed and swung out his Long Scythe fiercely.

As the scythe flew through the air, it twisted and morphed into a ferocious giant dragon, lunging towards the Great Onmyoji, temporarily forcing the two back.

Skull Face charged towards the Sin Remains, reaching for them with his intact hand. As his hand touched the blood threads, he did not take much notice; with his strength, snapping these threads seemed like child's play.

But his expression suddenly changed; white-gold flames erupted from the blood threads, and he felt the terror of those flames. He wanted to pull his hand back, but it was too late.

The power of "Blood as Sacred" exploded, and the Holy Flame instantly destroyed his hand, and Skull Face screamed as he fell.

"So it can also be used like this!" Xu Yi's eyes lit up.

He hadn't used the Binding Soul Thread for a long time, and he didn't expect that, combined with the blood of a Demigod, it could achieve such a good effect.

"Between entries, it's not just fusion that works; if matched properly, they can also have very good effects."

Xu Yi suddenly had a revelation.

The Binding Soul Thread pulled tight, and as the Sin Remains were about to be pulled away from the massive gate and fly back into Xu Yi's hands...

At that moment, black-gold roots suddenly stretched out from behind the massive gate, instantly wrapping around the Sin Remains. The Holy Flame rose on the Binding Soul Thread, yet it seemingly couldn't destroy those roots.

Xu Yi's expression changed; unnoticed by him, the massive gate had completely opened, and behind it lay a dark and desolate world.

The black-golden ancient tree swept away the eerie beings blocking the gate with its roots. The beings could only bow their heads low, as if welcoming the arrival of a king.

From the ancient tree, Xu Yi sensed a tsunami-like terrifying presence, making one's hair stand on end.

He couldn't understand why other eerie beings failed, but this ancient tree could pass through the massive gate?

The Sin Remains suddenly began to melt, like butter being heated, and merged into the roots of the tree.

The two were of the same origin, or it could be said that the Sin Remains were originally a part of this ancient tree.

Xu Yi suddenly understood—the fragments of the Sin Remains were like a compass, guiding the arrival of the ancient tree, serving as a medium for the descent of an Evil God.

Kayako, the massive gate, the Sin Remains... Everything had become clear now; the organization's goal was to summon this black-golden ancient tree!
