The Heart's Fire Forges the Five Gods
In the Fushimi Inari Divine Domain Uka no Mitama has gained the upper hand.
The flame within the plant never went out.
Both Uka no Mitama and the Four Pillar Gods felt they were in a difficult situation.
At the same time, they were also puzzled.
We've now entered a phase where we're competing to see Power of Will.
They couldn't understand how Japan deity could dare to challenge them in terms of the Power of Will.
Even though Shuya the Vermilion Bird Divinity... the Vermilion Bird isn't solely possessed by Shuya, unlike the Uka no Mitama, which is completely controlled by a single family.
Although the Vermilion Bird is powerful, the Power of Will that Shuya can absorb is limited.
Uka no Mitama was unaware that Shuya had never dared to draw too much of Vermilion Bird's Power of Will, otherwise he would be assimilated.
His power reserves were less than Uka no Mitama had imagined.
Although Uka no Mitama had doubts, as long as Shuya didn't give up, He couldn't stop.
Otherwise, the flames would come crashing down on us.
No matter how she thought about it, Uka no Mitama was certain of victory.
But He didn't want to continue fighting; He was truly heartbroken about wasting His Power of Will here.
Uka no Mitama's mind raced, and he said magnanimously, "Alliance Leader of the Monster Alliance, admit defeat, and I won't take your life. As long as you swear Godhead oath with your divine power to serve my race for all eternity, you can become the sixth pillar god of my race."
He spoke sweetly, but if Shuya agreed, he would become a slave, and He would take away the Power of Will of all the Monster, which would be enough to severely damage all the Monster in Japan.
Shuya ignored him and simply crossed his arms.
His eyes were slightly closed, and he floated quietly in the air, burning with flames, silently keeping time in his mind.
He didn't need to bother arguing with a dying god.
"Isn't it about time?"
Shuya felt that most of the Divine Power feathers he had sent out had found a home.
The subordinates were unaware that some of these Divine Power feathers were actually quite extraordinary.
The one held by powerful Monster like Tamamo Ren is a specially enhanced version made with his Heart Fire.
After these days of cultivation, the power of his Heart Fire has become even stronger.
It's difficult to use Heart Fire in actual combat, but it's perfect for making traps.
Ten minutes have now passed.
If they delay any longer, they will realize something is wrong.
If they hadn't used the power of the Black Tortoise Divinity to conceal their destiny, they would have sensed something was wrong long ago, but this concealment is probably nearing its limit.
Shuya, and with Power of Will, all the feathers connected to him in the darkness burst into flames.
At that moment, the Five Pillar Gods of the Inari Shrine, including Uka no Mitama, suddenly felt a terrifying sense of impending death.
Before this, they had not noticed anything amiss.
This is one of the special abilities of the Black Tortoise Divinity.
Besides its ability to control water and provide defense, the Black Tortoise's tortoise shell also represents divination and fortune-telling.
The future cannot be predicted, but Shuya can use this to shield himself from fate.
Even if Uka no Mitama Kami have sensitive perceptions, they cannot sense that Shuya coming to cause trouble here.
This shielding also has its limits. Just before the feather was activated, Uka no Mitama noticed something was wrong.
But it was too late.
Shuya's scheme came too fast. From the moment they were awakened, they had been following Shuya's rhythm and were already deeply trapped.
The plants in the air paused, their Divine Power solidifying.
---A flame appeared.
A flame, pure gold on the inside and a deep, dark red on the outside, quietly ignited within the body of Uka no Mitama and the Shrine.
The Five Pillar Gods have been competing with Shuya in Power of Will, so they constantly draw Power of Will from various Divine Domain to deal with him.
When Shuya's feathers ignited in the various Divine Domain, the burning flames were all absorbed by the Uka no Mitama.
A flame, mixed with the fire of the Heart Fire, ignited within the Uka no Mitama.
A feeling he had never experienced since becoming a god arose within him.
This is what they call... pain, right?
The Uka no Mitama's mind, he couldn't help but scream in agony, "Aaaaaah---!"
The Heart Fire within the body of Uka no Mitama, fueled by His Divine Power, and burned ever brighter.
The other four pillars of the gods were also screaming in agony.
The cries of the five gods shook the Divine Domain, but the Monster were not frightened. They simply laughed wildly and launched their attack. To them, the cries sounded like war drums, making their blood boil.
Section 281, Chapter 265 Heart Fire the Five Spirits
Screams echoed endlessly, the Divine Domain trembled, and the sky shifted.
Amidst this upheaval, Shuya's unchanging voice emanated from the plants:
"It's time to set off. I'll see you off, Uka no Mitama."
Among the plants that had stopped growing, Shuya brazenly activated his Primordial Divine Blood, and the powerful flames burned all the plants to ashes.
As flames swirled and black ash exploded, a pair of black flame wings shot out, sweeping away all the ashes and piercing the divine body of Uka no Mitama across a distance of tens of meters, lifting Him high into the air.
The Monster and clergy on the ground all stopped fighting, as if frozen in time.
They looked up at the scene.
Uka no Mitama was seen being pierced and lifted high by black flame wings that were stretched taut like steel needles, its limbs dangling in the air like a broken doll.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, drops of divine blood flowed from Uka no Mitama, falling into the air and then turning into flames and disappearing.
"Aaaaaaah!"
Uka no Mitama was still screaming in agony as the fire in his Heart Fire burned, unable to make any move to resist.
He looked at Shuya with difficulty, his eyes pleading, his lips trembling as if he wanted to say something but couldn't utter a sound.
He cannot move his mouth.
Shuya. As a righteous person, he always dealt with enemies ruthlessly, while villains love to talk.
He directly activated the Vermilion Bird Demon Blood, and the black flame wings detached from his back, shrinking away into the distance before finally entering the body of Uka no Mitama.
The Heart Fire within His heart burned with His divine Godhead, and the black flames shrank into the body of Uka no Mitama, and then...
Uka no Mitama looked at Shuya and strained to transmit his voice:
Let it go, let it go---
He hadn't finished speaking.
A violent cry echoed through the air.
Black Vermilion Bird, composed of a large amount of primordial Demon Blood, emitted a mysterious cry from the body of Uka no Mitama.
Then---
Bang!
A pair of black flame wings burst forth from the belly and back of the neck of Uka no Mitama.
At the same time, something seemed to be struggling and writhing inside Him, and it made another muffled thud.
After a series of sounds, a black bird's beak pierced out of His brain.
Uka no Mitama's body stiffened, and he stopped screaming.
His eyes were bloodshot and darting around wildly.
The scene was extremely bizarre.
The Demon Power of the alien species clashed wildly within His Divine Body, and His infinitely beautiful form seemed to be parasitized by something, constantly protruding sharp spikes or irregular shapes.
Finally, the magnificent black flame wings pushed off forcefully, creating two large openings.
Boom!
Endless black flames surged from the face and two openings of Uka no Mitama.
From the point where He was torn apart, cracks continued to extend.
Black flames spewed out from the cracks.
Uka no Mitama wanted to resist, but the Heart Fire in his heart was burning his divine Godhead, making him too painful to react.
Finally, Uka no Mitama was forced to burst open.
The god's flesh and blood scattered in the explosion, but were instantly burned away.
Uka no Mitama body disappeared, but he had not yet perished; his divine Godhead was caught in a bird's beak.
A strange, black, fiery bird flew through the air.
This is a clone that Shuya created using the original Demon Blood of the Vermilion Bird.
After the Blackflame Vermilion Bird flew back, it directly entered Shuya's body, leaving only a Godhead.
Shuya looked curiously at the Godhead in his hand, which was burning with an inner gold and outer Heart Fire.
This was the first time he had seen the divine Godhead of Inari God.
The divine Godhead of Uka no Mitama is seed-shaped.
---That's terrible, being countered by fire from the very beginning of his Godhead.
"Lord God..."
"Impossible!"
"Ahhh, how could this happen!"
Among the clergy, those of the same clan as Uka no Mitama were filled with despair and disbelief.
After all these years, we've even survived a world war, and now we're going to crash and burn? Are you kidding me?! --- This is Shuya translated, their thoughts.
On the contrary, the Monster cheered.
They are most excited about being able to kill the gods.
Seeing the clergymen standing there in a daze, deeply shocked, the Monster rushed forward and bound them.
They didn't go too far, after all, they were also afraid of the laws of the Earth Federation.
The clergy were stunned, but the Heavenly Soldiers and Heroic Spirits were largely unaffected and continued their attack on the Monster.
The Monster kept an eye on Shuya's situation while fighting.
Shuya, who was being watched by them, was currently holding the Uka no Mitama Godhead of Uka no Mitama, and descending into the Shrine.
Shizuka Hiratsuka watched him approach and casually made a sarcastic remark. "Holy crap, this Uka no Mitama is too weak, he was defeated after only a few moves?"
Shuya shook his head, stating fairly, "It's not that He's too useless; it's just that our plan succeeded. We were on the defensive, not on the other side. It's not a fault of our strategy."
To be honest, if it were a real fight, Shuya wouldn't be able to defeat Him in a short time.
The Inari Shrine has so many worshippers that it could hold off Shuya for a long time using only the Power of Will.
If He can hold out for a day or two, and then send other gods out to seek help, and all the gods come to gang up on him, Shuya will not fare well either.
Shuya think the current situation was a fluke, but it also had a sense of fate.
He thought it was mainly a matter of timing; no one could have predicted that Shuya would so ruthlessly turn on the gods and kill them so soon after unifying the Monster.
No one could have imagined that the Monster were so eager to cause trouble. Even if Shuya to oppose the gods, they dared to follow him (Yamata no Orochi:???).
Shuya laughed, "Regardless, victory is victory. Next..."
