• The shadow reappeared as the Divine Tree’s branches spread across the ground, and its darkness began affecting Kaguya.

Moriyue escaped Julan’s attempt to merge with him by removing the Talismans, then joined Ajisai, Kazeki, and Yugito Nii in a summoned formation to fight the shadow. As the battle turned against them, Moriyue froze the shadow and its chains and called on the Evil God and Shinigami to act.

• Julan’s darkness restrained Moriyue, Kaguya, Kazeki, and Yugito Nii as he moved to merge with Moriyue.
