He is the Okuninushi.

Shuya laughed and said, "You have remnants of Hachiman's aura on you, and Amaterasu has also absorbed Hachiman, so you can help me locate Amaterasu and find her in Takamagahara."

"---Be happy! You will go down in history for acting as traitors, causing the outbreak of the war for the unification of the extraordinary world of Japan, and the trigger for the war between gods and demons! Hahahaha!"

Shuya the ashen faces of the Three Munakata Goddesses, and suddenly used the power of the Four Spirits of Heaven to activate the Godhead power of the Okuninushi.

Moment.

The power of the Five Elements is complete.

A peculiar sense of space appeared, Shuya vaguely understood some techniques. He immediately tried to sense and identify the Three Munakata Goddesses, trying to find the aura of Amaterasu that he had sensed before.

Before long, he sensed a shared aura emanating from the island in the sky.

Shuya didn't hesitate to locate it.

His entire being swept across Takamagahara, finding the weakest point in the spatial barrier—the edge of the island furthest from Amaterasu.

He used his spatial abilities to connect that place with the land beneath his feet.

Buzz---!

A mysterious array appeared in the plaza Imperial Palace Complex the Monster City.

The teleportation array is complete.

Immediately... march on Takamagahara!

Chapter 316 The Battle of Takamagahara

"Completed, the spatial array leading to Takamagahara is complete."

Shuya looked at the array diagram on the ground, stepped on it, and didn't feel anything special, but it could be activated as long as he made mental contact, teleporting him to the edge of Takamagahara.

The teleportation array diagram was full of complex lines and symbols, Shuya couldn't understand at all.

This can be considered an automatic manifestation of the rules; Shuya did was sense Takamagahara and connect through the Three Munakata Goddesses.

That doesn't mean he knows how to set up spatial arrays.

This is also the level of most gods.

Don't be fooled by their ability to freely use this Main Hall to descend upon the Divine Domain or expand their territory; they simply know how to use it.

Unless one has a divine authority over space, it's fundamentally incomprehensible.

Even the Heavenly God, who are the God of Learning, do not understand it.

But if it works, there's no need to understand it.

Shuya's thoughts flashed through his mind, and he warmly shook hands with the Three Munakata Goddesses exhausted, then sent them aside to wait.

Then he turned to look at his subordinate Monster.

Everything is ready.

There wasn't much to prepare.

Grab your weapons and let's fucking get to them.

There are reasons for setting up the teleportation array in the Monster City.

First, this is the territory of Monster; second, the Monster City is protected by the Four Spirits, making it very safe.

Shuya considered that the portal might also be usable in Takamagahara, so he couldn't just set it up arbitrarily.

The Monster City is the safest place.

Moreover, he didn't believe that Amaterasu attacked, those old Monster would just watch the show.

Shuya saw that both the Monster and Heavenly God factions were ready.

Then he called out loudly, "Is everything ready? Then... let's go!"

"Aww!"

The Monster all shouted in unison.

Amidst the terrifying roar, a halo of light spread from the teleportation array beneath Shuya's feet, covering the entire city.

In an instant, the Monster City became much emptier.

The transmission process was very stable.

In the blink of an eye, Shuya felt a refreshing breeze brush past him.

The view was a sea of green, indicating that the outer perimeter of Takamagahara was a plain.

Above... no, all around was a scene of blue sky and white clouds.

This floating island is incredibly beautiful.

While Shuya admiring the scenery, the Monster had already set up their formation, standing on either side of the plain with the Heavenly God' retinue.

Shizuka Hiratsuka and the others stood behind Shuya.

This sacred land, peaceful and serene, was trampled underfoot by a rude Monster.

Amaterasu's side reacted quickly.

A short while later, a tremor came from the direction of a Divine Mountain in the distance, which is covered with numerous Shrine.

A large number of footsteps approached.

First, a black line appeared, followed by an endless sea of people.

Takamagahara is now essentially a vast Divine Domain, inhabited by Heavenly Soldiers and Heroic Spirits, as well as retainers of various Shrine.

In terms of sheer numbers, they far outnumbered Shuya's group.

Shuya has 200,000, while the other side has at least two or three times that number (including many small fry). He can't see the end of the gap, so he can't give a specific number.

Shuya stared at the opposite side, but did not see Amaterasu's figure.

Only Takemikazuchi and Futsunushi are visible in the center.

Surrounding the two gods were a series of unfamiliar deities, all of whom were gods from Amaterasu's side.

"Amaterasu is not here?"

Shuya said subconsciously.

"On the contrary, His situation is worse than we imagined."

The Heavenly God said, "He must be focused on bringing Takamagahara down, so He can't spare any more attention."

Takemikazuchi and Futsunushi, and the army stopped, confronting Shuya's side.

The two armies faced each other from a distance.

With their eyesight, Shuya and the others could clearly see each other's faces.

Takemikazuchi and Futsunushi were expressionless, but their faces betrayed a hint of urgency.

Shuya and Takemikazuchi stared at each other.

His voice came from afar:

"Alliance Leader of the Monster Alliance! I didn't expect you to have a way to get up here, but... I won't let you take another step forward!"

The Futsunushi also cried out, "You great sinner who trespassed upon the sacred Takamagahara! Atone with your death!"

"Kill!"

Both sides knew that saying anything was pointless, so there was no wasted words.

The only option left is to fight each other.

The Heavenly Soldiers, Heroic Spirits, and warriors of Amaterasu's Amaterasu charged forward with shouts, their every movement like a mountain collapsing or a tsunami crashing, creating an incredibly awe-inspiring scene.

This open plain is more than enough to accommodate a major battle between the two sides.

As the enemy charged forward, a sun and a moon rose in the sky.

Amaterasu's voice boomed:

"My beloved, I bless you with the power of the sun to vanquish all evil; I bless you with the comfort of the moon to heal your wounds---"

Go forth and fight for me!

As soon as he finished speaking, the sun and moon shone with golden and silver light, and the morale of the warriors on the Amaterasu side rose.

Shuya sensed that their physical abilities and healing abilities had both increased.

This is... Divine Arts from a powerful god!

Buff applied!

At the same time, Takemikazuchi and Futsunushi also offered their blessings.

The warriors' weapons flashed with electricity, their blades becoming even sharper.

Their postures and movements became more refined, and their combat skills were directly enhanced.

After applying his buffs Takemikazuchi roared, "Charge! Slaughter them all! Monster cannot be resurrected after being killed, but we can! Therefore, we will surely win!"

"Snort."

Shuya spoke up to refute, "Everyone, don't worry. Although we can't be resurrected, I've already made preparations with the teleportation array."

"We all bear Divine Arts marks; if we are seriously injured, we will be teleported back to the Monster City. The only cost is the depletion of all our strength!"

Shuya's voice boomed. "So charge! This is the last battle! There won't be another chance to vent like this, therefore—"

"Let's wreak havoc, you Monster!"

"Awooooo!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Tear them apart!

"Get him!"

The Monster rose up, their blood boiling, their minds filled with murderous intent.

They rushed out, maintaining only a basic formation.

The Heavenly God also sent their retinues into battle.

Then Shuya also started applying buffs.

His power is sufficient to unleash such a super Divine Arts.

The first thing to appear in the sky was the Vermilion Bird, whose red light illuminated the Monster and the retinue of the Heavenly God.

"In the name of the Vermilion Bird, I bestow upon you the secrets of fire and attack."

Attack power increased; weapon now has fire attack capabilities.

Then Black Tortoise appeared, radiating black light.

"In the name of Black Tortoise, I bestow upon you the secrets of water and defense."

With increased defense, layers of water ripple around him, deflecting attacks from both near and far.

Then the White Tiger appeared, scattering golden light in all directions.

"In the name of the White Tiger, I bestow upon you the secrets of gold and sharpness."

The weapons and fists gleamed with golden light, carrying a powerful edge.

Finally, the Azure Dragon appeared, its azure light dazzling.

"In the name of the Azure Dragon, I bestow upon you the secrets of wood and lightning."

All the weapons were wreathed in flames and crackled with lightning. At the same time, the body was stimulated by the lightning, which boosted its functions, while the wood elemental energy provided vigorous vitality and recovery ability.

The blessing buff from the Four Spirits of Heaven is very comprehensive and powerful.
