Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Demon God Demon Core

Entering Mount Fuji once again, this time they didn’t hide their presence excessively, yet the number of demons from the demon clan daring to disturb the two of them ended up even fewer.

To be precise, there were none.

It wasn’t that no demons noticed them; in fact, Su Chengyu keenly sensed more than one Demon Monarch’s Divine Sense falling upon them, and Ye Qingci surely detected even more.

All these Demon Monarchs, however, unanimously chose to turn a blind eye, as if unaware of anyone’s arrival, letting Ye Qingci and company pass through.

"Something’s not quite right."

Ye Qingci spoke softly, voicing the doubt that Su Chengyu also felt.

"Hmm, these demons should not be this docile. Even if they sensed Aunt Ye’s presence as threatening, there should be some kind of reaction."

Ye Qingci’s gaze turned toward a stabilizing aura, and she blinked, "Maybe it’s not me they’re wary of, but someone else."

Su Chengyu’s heart tightened before he could speak, Ye Qingci sent a breath of air that landed directly on Su Chengyu’s chest, its warm essence carried a somewhat familiar feeling, clinging tight to his chest, in a semi-activated state.

"Just in case, it can shield you from a blow from an Earth Immortal. If you sense danger, don’t worry about me, and directly hide inside the Thousand-Mile Mountain and River Map."

Su Chengyu nodded gravely, understanding that no matter who the uninvited guest was, this was destined to be a battle of Earth Immortal level, far beyond his capacity to intervene.

Following the source of the aura, the air temperature around them gradually started to rise, and even behind the thick mountain walls, Su Chengyu could tell that they were now in the heart of a Formation.

Without a doubt, this Great Formation created by utilizing the entire terrain of Mount Fuji was the one trapping the legendary serpent, Yamata no Orochi.

This Great Formation, which had existed for who knows how many years, now, even in its broken state, had not lost an ounce of its effectiveness and still securely imprisoned the Yamata no Orochi within.

And this Formation, from which one could only enter but not leave, today welcomed its second group of visitors.

"We’ve arrived."

Ye Qingci spoke softly, drawing her sword gently, and parted the invisible barrier in front of them.

Only then did the interior view of the Formation appear before the two of them. As Su Chengyu followed Ye Qingci inside, the next second, the scene that met his eyes left him frozen in place.

In the searing magma lay a colossal corpse collapsed within, identical to the Yamata no Orochi Dharma Body Su Chengyu had previously seen, the Demon God’s true body lying lifelessly in the magma without a trace of life.

"Dead?"

Startled, Su Chengyu spoke out then turned his gaze to Ye Qingci, whose heart was equally shocked, yet she remained composed with an inscrutable expression.

"Who might you be?"

Speaking softly, an Onmyoji dressed in a tall hat and hunting attire slowly rose from behind the gigantic body of the Yamata no Orochi, his face bearing a faint smile as he looked at the two and blinked, "You both have finally come. It’s been a long time, Su Chengyu. Honestly, I didn’t expect we’d meet again so soon."

"White Fox? Or should I say... Abe no Seimei?"

Despite the notable differences from the appearance Su Chengyu had seen in the tavern that day, he recognized the identity of the person from his demeanor and speech and immediately responded.

And Ye Qingci, upon hearing Su Chengyu’s words, also slightly frowned and coldly said to the god-level Onmyoji in front of her who threatened the State Preceptor of Dongying Country.

"The son of the White Fox?"

Abe no Seimei slowly closed the Ying Yang Fan in his hands, then turned his gaze upon Su Chengyu and said, "To tell the truth, I don’t like being called by that name. You’ve said too much, little guy."

The reason Abe no Seimei revealed his identity to Su Chengyu was just to point out what they had in common. Otherwise, despite being a Demon God Himself, He would not assume the identity of a god-level Onmyoji.

Onmyoji have never had a path to becoming divine. Only due to her half-demon heritage had she attained the status of an Earth Immortal.

"Why are you here?"

Ye Qingci sternly asked, She didn’t care about the bottom line of this person or how he ascended to the Earth Immortal status. What she cared about was why this person had appeared in this place.

Looking up at Ye Qingci, Abe no Seimei smiled and said, "Quite cold, aren’t we, even though we have just met not long ago."

"So it was you. You left that Divine Sense in Su Chengyu’s body to learn what had happened inside the Cave Heaven?"

"It was a coincidence. At that time, how could I have known this kid would have such a great opportunity, and... his relationship with you."

With a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, and paired with Abe no Seimei’s androgynous features, the atmosphere grew eerily tense. Ye Qingci tightened her brows and pressed on, "So why exactly are you here now!"

Ye Qingci’s voice carried an urgent tone. Clearly, her patience had reached its limit, but Abe no Seimei seemed in no hurry and casually turned to look at the now-corpse of the Yamata no Orochi on the ground, "Isn’t it obvious? I came to take care of this guy. I’ve waited so long; how could I let him continue to wreak havoc on Mount Fuji?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingci scoffed coldly, "You people of Dongying offer a living sacrifice at your annual ceremony for him, and you still have the face to say such things?"

The ceremony at Mount Fuji involved a human sacrifice, something that was no secret to the Demon Slayer Department.

The Yamata no Orochi had been sealed in this place for so long, yet its strength had not declined, and this was one of the major reasons.

However, faced with Ye Qingci’s accusation, Abe no Seimei didn’t take it to heart and said softly, "This guy chose to connect himself with the volcano of Mount Fuji; without the living sacrifices, it wouldn’t just be Dongying in trouble—even Xia Country far away would be affected. We do the dirty work, and you enjoy the benefits. The Demon Slayer Department should be content with that, right?"

"Preposterous reasoning!"

Ye Qingci would not waver because of what he said; regardless of the reason, choosing to sacrifice living people for peace was something Ye Qingci could never accept.

"Say what you will, but my purpose in coming here is just as you see it—to kill this creature. After all, it’s not often you get such a good opportunity, maybe not even once in a thousand years. Oh right, kid, you’ve done a big favor. Here, this is for you."

As Abe no Seimei spoke, he then raised his hand and threw a black orb toward Su Chengyu.

Instinctively, Su Chengyu turned to look at Ye Qingci, and only after noticing Ye Qingci nodded did Su Chengyu catch the gigantic orb which was almost as big as his own head.

"Aunt Ye, what is this?"

Su Chengyu quietly transmitted his voice to Ye Qingci.

Only then did Ye Qingci slowly begin to speak.

"Demon God demon core."
