Chapter 30 - The Taizan Fukun Ritual

"Spell?"

Mitsue gazed at the ever-changing world and murmured in confusion for a moment.

"How can someone activate a Class A spell just by thought?"

"What do you mean?"

Ichiro could hardly contain his surprise and inevitably asked after hearing this.

"A spell is a means for onmyoji." Mitsue shook her head and said with a bitter smile, "I heard that regular onmyoji use magic spells and charms to release spells, and most of them are Class B. I didn't expect anyone to be able to use it just by thought."

"A Class A spell is a very powerful spell recognized by the Yin-Yang Agency. In principle, only those who have obtained national qualifications of Type Yin-Yang I or Type Yin-Yang II are allowed to use it."

Upon hearing this, Uesugi, who was kneeling on the ground, silently cursed this old woman in his heart.

Regular Yin-Yang spellcasters did not possess this kind of power when using Class A spells!

With just one command, Shun transformed the entire large courtyard into a world of flowers and trees. The level of wonder was beyond imagination.

At the moment he knelt in fear, he even recalled the shocking changes that occurred that night eighteen years ago.

At that time, when Tsuchimikado Yakou held his ceremony, he also had such terrifying power that it changed the color of the world.

Nagisa, Kaguya, and the others could not see it, but in Uesugi's eyes, who had seen spirits, Shun had become one with the ocean of flowers throughout the garden.

The most terrifying thing was not the vast ocean of trees supporting the misty branches among the bamboo, but the power emitted by the young man in front of him that transformed into this world of flowers!

Such terrifying power and immense spiritual strength were needed to achieve this.

Now Uesugi knelt trembling, feeling like an ant beneath the feet of a giant, ready to be crushed at any moment!

Even though his whole body trembled to the extreme, he still did not dare to lift his eyes.

Shun followed the others and listened to Mitsue's speech while looking at Uesugi.

"Expert Uesugi?"

"Don't you dare! Don't you dare!"

When he heard Shun call his name, he froze like a rabbit facing a tiger. His whole body shook, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Master, have mercy on me!"

Nagisa and Kaguya exchanged glances, contrasting sharply with their gentle eyes, but Ichiro's gaze was cold.

Shun stepped forward and took the bronze mirror. After sensing the immense spiritual power within it, he asked:

"I will break your spell; will you accept it?"

"I accept, I accept!"

"I block your way to make money; will you accept it?"

"I accept, I accept!"

"I take your magic weapon; will you accept it?"

"I accept! I accept! I accept!!!"

Uesugi cried out every word and prostrated himself as if he were pounding garlic.

Shun's eyes were indifferent, and then a branch flew out and pierced the man's leg. For a moment, that thin spiritual power was swallowed by his Wood Element.

"Now that you have accepted it, descend calmly."

After speaking, Shun glanced at Ichiro. The chaebol leader who had long led the large shipbuilding group quickly understood.

He waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to drag Uesugi and Makoto, who had fallen to the ground on the other side.

The consequences for both were clear.

❀❀❀

After the unpleasant incident, Ichiro enthusiastically invited them for lunch.

During this time, Ichiro agreed to the revenge confrontation between Nagisa and Kaguya, as well as Shun's trick of pretending to be dead.

Not only that, he also honored Mitsue, and her reward was said to be as much as one billion yen.

Seeing how to win the hearts of these people, Shun could only nod.

"By the way, Grandma Mitsue, can you tell me about Onmyoji?"

Seeing the host and guests enjoying themselves during the meal, Shun asked curiously.

"If Takeda-sama wants to know, I will tell you everything."

Hearing Shun speak, Mitsue immediately agreed.

Although her level was not high, she could be said to have one foot in this circle. Besides Ichiro, she also had many connections with other powerful people knowledgeable about the affairs of extraordinary people in Tokyo.

"The revival of Onmyoji in modern times began with the sacrifice eighteen years ago."

Talking about this, Mitsue felt a bit admired and a bit regretful.

This immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.

"Actually, the mysterious revival started slowly more than thirty years ago, but at that time there was no Internet, and it was very slow. Even if something strange happened, most people thought it was just a vague legend."

"What truly strengthened this mysterious revival was the sacrifice that originated from Tokyo that year."

"And that sacrifice is called the Taizan Fukun Sacrifice!"

"At that time, there was a genius named Tsuchimikado Yakou. He combined Onmyodo, Esoteric Buddhism, Shugendo, Shinto, and other supernatural Japanese spells into one and added his own interpretation to create the Onmyoji Agency and the spell system."

"He was the strongest Onmyoji during the World War II period, but he wanted to challenge the authority of the underworld of life and death, reincarnating through the Taizan Fukun Ritual to live a second life."

"No one knows whether that sacrifice succeeded or failed, but since that day, spiritual power leaked throughout Japan and even caused terrible spiritual disasters. In fact, because of this ritual, the entire world triggered a butterfly effect, and the revival of spiritual power worldwide actually accelerated."

"More and more ghosts appeared, and I even heard that in legends, the nine-tailed fox demon made joyful cries that day."

"It can be said that the environment is changing every day, especially in Tokyo lately. I heard there are many people with strange abilities from time to time. No one knows whether that is true or false."

Mitsue then shared many stories that captivated everyone.

"Then, grandma, do you know if there is a division of power systems among practitioners in the world after the spiritual energy recovered?"

Shun asked the most important question for him. After the spiritual energy revived, even Uesugi had a very powerful relic.

Perhaps the ancient families that had been passed down would rise again with the help of spiritual energy thousands of years after the revival of spiritual energy.

The best example is Onmyoji Tsuchimikado Yakou, who was a leader of an era.

The Tsuchimikado clan had existed for thousands of years and was said to be inherited from Abe no Seimei. The clan had been passed down for hundreds of years. As a result, after the spiritual energy revived, monsters like Tsuchimikado Yakou appeared directly.

Such things might be repeated in other parts of the world, but very few people played it as large as Tsuchimikado Yakou.

Only by understanding the combat power levels of extraordinary people in the world today could Shun be mentally prepared.
