The Witch's Blessing, Luck (World Will)

"It seems we can only rely on the Priestess."

Shiraha thought to himself, "The spells are indeed effective against the Stone Golem, but this method of slowly consuming the Energy Particles in the Stone Golem's body with spells will probably drain it dry."

Unless he advances to the First-Level Warlock and can use large-area attack First-Level Spell, or can instantly eliminate the Energy Particles inside the Stone Golem, he will indeed be unable to effectively strike the Undead Legion.

The situation is urgent. There's no way to let him conduct the experiment right now. We can only rely on the Priestess to seal the Mōryō first, and then slowly study it.

"It's no use. The Undead Legion won't stop until the Mōryō are sealed. They're all Immortal Body. Let's hurry to the Swamp Country!"

Seeing that Shiraha had stopped trying, Miroku reminded him.

"Okay, let's get going!" Shiraha and Kushina quickly ran forward, but soon stopped because Miroku was basically an ordinary person.

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Miroku followed.

"Then I'll carry you," Shiraha stepped forward, preparing to squat down.

Kushina flashed and appeared in front of Miroku, crouching down. "Come on up."

"Yes, thank you! The Swamp Country is in the southwest."

Miroku hugged Kushina's neck tightly.

Shiraha nodded. He just wanted to relieve some pressure on Kushina, the main attacker; it didn't matter who carried the load.

However, before leaving, Shiraha reminded her, "Kushina, don't use the ' Crimson Dragon Armor '."

The "Crimson Dragon Armor" is a combination of offense and defense. Don't let Kushina forget about it and just kill Miroku, the client. That would be a real mess.

"Hmph! I'm not stupid, of course I know."

Kushina gave a soft hum.

"Of course you're an idiot, you were just about to use it!" Mini Nine-Tails reminded him, sending some of the purified Chakra out of the Sealing Space.

"Shut up!" Kushina was furious and embarrassed. As a gentle orange Chakra filled her body, she flashed and ran quickly towards the southwest.

Seeing this, Shiraha also activated his Breathing Technique and quickly followed.

Rumble~

The Undead Legion that was originally heading towards the palace changed direction and chased after Kushina in the direction she had left.

However, Kushina was too fast, and soon she left the army of tens of thousands of Stone Golem far behind.

However, wherever the three went, Stone Golem emerged from the ground.

Swamp Country.

In the very center, there is a Dormant Volcano.

However, few people know that at the center of this Dormant Volcano lies a massive altar.

With the power of the altar, the Priestess can seal away demons.

At this moment, the followers of the Yomi Sect, led by their leader Yomi, launched an attack on the altar together with the Undead Legion.

A massive barrier covered the entire volcano.

The power contained within the barrier has a strong restraining effect on the members of the Yomi Sect who possess the power of Mōryō, as well as the Stone Golem of the Undead Legion.

However, as the saying goes, "many ants can kill an elephant," and faced with tens of thousands of the Undead Legion and the Yomi Sect's three-day-long attack, the purple light emanating from the Underground Altar's barrier had weakened considerably.

It is estimated that the altar will be destroyed in another day.

Even if the Priestess's power can restrain the Mōryō, sealing the Mōryō will be extremely difficult without the aid of the altar barrier.

"Hurry up and attack! Once the altar is destroyed, Mōryō's power will be restored. At that time, we will all gain the power of Eternal Life, the Undead Legion will crush the Great Nations for us, and we will become the rulers of the entire ninja world!"

Yomi stood atop the mountain and shouted loudly to the Yomi Sect below.

His voice seemed to have Magic Power quality.

Upon hearing his voice, the Yomi Sect below were energized, as if injected with adrenaline. Despite their Chakra being nearly depleted, they still squeezed every last bit of power from their bodies to attack the altar barrier.

Yomi smiled cruelly at the scene before him.

Boom--!

Suddenly, a tremendous, earth-shattering sound came from afar.

The sound of the Undead Legion attacking the altar barrier was masked.

"That is..." Yomi's pupils suddenly contracted.

An orange Chakra Orb and another crimson ball of light rushed towards them from afar.

"A ninja?!"

The two of them were like human tanks, rampaging through the Undead Legion.

Wherever it went, the Stone Golem were smashed to pieces.

The most outrageous thing is that in that orange Chakra Orb, the girl carrying another girl on her back is the Priestess Miroku!

"Damn it!" Yomi's expression changed drastically. Just from the powerful aura emanating from those two streams of Chakra, he knew that he was no match for them.

This has surpassed the level of Jōnin; it's the Kage Level!

Konoha and Sunagakure are fighting a major battle. Are they out of their minds?

Why send such a powerful expert here?

Yomi felt a tightness in his chest, and then everything went black.

One day, the altar barrier will break, Mōryō will regain his power, and the vision of ruling the world will be right before our eyes. Should we just give up like this?

I'm not reconciled!

Yomi shouted towards the sky, "Lord Mōryō! Stop them!"

Rumble~

A deafening roar, like thunder, seemed to resound in the sky.

At that moment, above Kushina and Shiraha, a gigantic, purple, fleshy monster emerged from the clouds—it was the Mōryō.

The body of the Mōryō was like a mountain of purple flesh piled up, covered with densely packed attacking creatures. Just seeing it made Shiraha feel dizzy and his vision go black. He immediately used "Antimagic Field" to neutralize the powerful radiation field emitted by the Mōryō.

"So strong!"

Even just sensing a portion of the Mōryō's Energy Field, Shiraha felt his head throb, his chest feel congested, and a nausea welled up from the bottom of his heart.

Such radiation is probably comparable to that of the Kurama.

How could a Priestess, who might not even be able to defeat an ordinary ninja, possibly deal with such a monster?

At this moment, Kushina seemed completely unaffected by the Mōryō. Instead, when Shiraha's speed was slowed down due to the demons' influence, she accelerated and ran towards the volcano where the altar was located.

"That wretched Priestess!"

In the sky, as Miroku drew ever closer to the altar, the shrill voice of the Mōryō rang out.

The sound seemed to be a combination of many strange tones, drilling straight into one's mind and body, making Shiraha extremely uncomfortable.

At the same time, the soft tentacles that were constantly dancing around the Mōryō's body instantly became thick, long, and hard, while releasing yellowish-white mucus.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Each clump of slime that landed exploded like a cannonball, rapidly corroding everything around it.

The Crimson Airflow on Shiraha's body was brushed against by the yellowish-white mucus, and it sizzled and emitted white smoke.

"It can even corrode Chakra?!"

Shiraha was startled and pushed the Crimson Dragon Calamity to its limit, increasing his speed dramatically and dodging the Mōryō's attack.

On the other side, Kushina had already entered ' Nine-Tails Chakra Mode ', donned 'Golden Skin', and her body transformed into a blur, shattering all the Stone Golem around the altar.

The surrounding Yomi Sect were instantly killed.

When Shiraha arrived at the cave entrance, Kushina threw the Miroku on her back at him and then launched an attack on the Mōryō.

Shiraha grabbed the dizzy and disoriented Miroku and shouted a reminder:

"Kushina, watch out!"

"Got it! I'll hold it off!"

Kushina replied.

Shiraha immediately led Miroku into the altar. With Miroku there, the barrier, which had been attacked by the Undead Legion for three days without being broken, was as thin as a film and broke with a single puncture.

The two entered the cave.

They arrived at the enormous underground altar.

The altar was densely covered with various strange black symbols, unlike any Sealing Jutsu Shiraha had ever learned.

"Shiraha Yu, this is enough. Don't go any further."

Miroku reminded him and led him toward the center of the altar.

Shiraha sensed the immense Energy Field emanating from the altar, and even without Miroku's warning, he wouldn't approach it casually.

Miroku stood in the center of the altar, then sat cross-legged, put his hands together, and began to silently recite the mantra. Immediately afterwards, his hands quickly Hand Seals.

Buzz!

The entire altar lit up, radiating a dazzling purple light.

The powerful Energy Particle Fluctuation caused Shiraha to instinctively step back.

"This is."

Boom!

The purple light emanating from the altar quickly converged at the center, then shot straight into the sky, erupting from the crater and piercing through the clouds.

"What kind of power is this?"

Shiraha looked surprised. Under the perception of his "Sixth Sense", he felt that the Energy Particles in this large space were attracted by Miroku and gathered on her body, and then burst out in an instant.

Shiraha wondered if this power, if it entered his body, could instantly burst him apart.

Even if you are promoted one level, there is no guarantee that you will be able to handle it.

The Priestess's power is truly amazing!?

"Ah! I'm not reconciled! Miroku—!"

In the sky, the Mōryō that was constantly attacking Kushina suddenly let out a sharp cry. An invisible sound wave spread rapidly, and a dark shadow was pulled out from the Mōryō's body and then merged into the Purple Light Beam. As the pillar of light disappeared, the dark shadow also merged into the altar.

"I will come back sooner or later, Miroku!"

The malevolent voice of the Mōryō rang out, making Shiraha feel dizzy.

"Shiraha Baiyu, please escort me back to the palace in the Demon Country."

Miroku stood up, but his body went limp, as if he had no strength to walk.

Shiraha quickly stepped forward to support her, and at the same time sent Yang Release Chakra into Miroku's body. He found that her body was not damaged at all, only slightly tired.

That's an incredible ability!

He's just a little weak?

"Your Highness Miroku, I'll take you back."

Shiraha Miroku on his back.

Once he emerged from the Underground Altar, all the surrounding Stone Golem had ceased their movements. Although the Mōryō in the sky was still waving its tentacles to attack Kushina, its movements were much slower than before. At this speed, even an ordinary Jōnin could easily dodge it.

"Kushina, keep up with me!"

Shiraha called out to Kushina in the sky before returning to the Demon Country.

Fortunately, both the Demon Country and the Swamp Country were small countries, and he made a full-speed run, returning to the palace in just one hour.

And just as Miroku had said, the body of the Mōryō was forced to follow.

Miroku returned to the palace and used the ' Priestess's power' once again. Although the Mōryō's body struggled continuously, the Mōryō, having lost its soul, was merely an empty shell and could not put up any effective resistance. It was quickly suppressed by the underground barrier of the palace.

After doing all this, Miroku seemed completely exhausted and collapsed onto the mat.

"Your Highness Miroku, how are you?"

Shiraha stepped forward and said.

He originally intended to seize the Mōryō for his experiments, but the Mōryō felt too dangerous to him, and conducting experiments at this stage would be too risky.

On the contrary, since the Priestess's power is so effective against the Mōryō, if we can figure out the source of the Priestess's Source of Power, we can better study the Mōryō.

Since the Priestess and the Mōryō are both here and can't escape, he's determined to find out what's going on.

"After the Mōryō was sealed, my abilities were also suppressed, and I'm just a little tired now. I thank Shiraha Yu and Kushina for their help. Without your help, sealing the Mōryō wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

Miroku said gratefully.

Without their help, countless people in the Demon Country would have died, and the price paid would have been unimaginable to successfully seal the Mōryō. The seal might even have failed, leading to the destruction of the world.

"How did it go? Did it succeed?" Once the Mōryō's physical body was successfully sealed, Kushina entered the palace.

"It's a success."

Shiraha nodded.

"That's good." Kushina breathed a sigh of relief, "The power of the Mōryō is really exaggerated! By the way, it seems that the leader of the Yomi Sect has run away."

With that, Kushina closed her eyes and used Mind's Eye of the Kagura to sense the location of Yomi.

"Found him! I'm going to bring him back."

Kushina rushed out of the palace in a great hurry.

At this moment, Shiraha frowned slightly, unsure of where to begin.

"If Shiraha have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will tell you anything I know, after all, we are the same kind of people."

Miroku suddenly spoke.

"The same kind of people?"

Shiraha was taken aback.

"You also resonated with the power of the Mōryō, didn't you? Apart from the Mōryō ' followers and Priestess, no one else is directly affected by the Mōryō. You don't have the Mōryō ' aura, but you were still affected, which means your power is similar to that of the Priestess. I didn't expect this kind of power to appear in a man."

Miroku explained.

"You mean I can also wield the power of Priestess?"

Shiraha asked.

This power is so strong that if he could master it, it would greatly enhance his combat strength.

Miroku shook his head. "I don't know either. The power of Priestess is innate. It is passed down from generation to generation. When Mōryō breaks the seal, the Priestess's power will increase; when Mōryō is sealed, the Priestess's power will weaken, until it is passed on to the next generation."

"If I wish to study the power of the Priestess, and the Mōryō, would Prince Miroku be willing to help me?"

"Research?" Miroku was taken aback. "The power of the Mōryō is evil and can cause people to lose their minds. You actually want to research the Mōryō?!"

"Power has no distinction between good and evil. Just as you said, your power also comes from Mōryō, but you are not evil, are you?"

"This..." Miroku fell into deep thought, then looked up and asked, "What can I do? How can I cooperate with you?"

"You're agreeing to this?"

Miroku's agreement was so readily accepted that Shiraha was somewhat bewildered.

"The seal on the Mōryō will continue to weaken. Even without the Yomi Sect, the seal will be broken sooner or later. Then my daughter will have to face such a terrible demon again. If Shiraha really has the ability to study the power of the Mōryō, it will not be a bad thing for me or for the entire Demon Country."

Shiraha countered, "Aren't you afraid that after I figure out the power of the Mōryō, I'll also want to rule the whole world?"

"Without Shiraha's help, the altar of the Swamp Country will be destroyed tomorrow. At that time, the power of the Mōryō will be fully restored, and the world will fall into chaos. The ending will be the same."

"Alright, since you've put it this way, I have no more reservations. By the way, what's your daughter's name, and where is she now?"

I don't have a daughter yet.

"No?"

"The Priestess's offspring will only be female. I will conceive when I receive the Prayers and Blessings of the people of the Demon Country," Miroku explained.

"Prayers and Blessings?!" Shiraha raised an eyebrow, surprised that such Conception Method actually existed.

"To provide Your Shiraha Mōryō, please accept the Priestess's Blessing."

"Priestess's Blessing? What is that?"

Miroku stepped forward, his face slightly flushed. "Please close your eyes."

Shiraha: "?"

What story unfolds here?

Shiraha closed his eyes, squinting slightly.

"Please don't peek." Miroku grabbed Shiraha's right hand.

Since the "Sixth Sense" did not sense any danger and the Energy Field around Miroku did not fluctuate, Shiraha closed his eyes.

The warm, damp touch from her fingers made Shiraha instinctively open her eyes.

Miroku looked up at him slightly and actually put his index finger in his mouth.

Despite his pure and holy expression, Shiraha felt a surge of warmth in his heart at his impure act.

"Hiss!"

Immediately afterwards, Shiraha felt a sharp pain in his fingertip.

Miroku had bitten her fingertip, and she sucked the blood from it into her mouth.

"Shiraha enjoy great success in his military endeavors!"

Miroku bowed Grand Ceremony to Shiraha.

"Received the ' Priestess's Blessing '"

"Luck Value +6"

Charm Value +0.5

[Luck: 6.01 (related to the Favor of the World Will, etc.)]

[Charm: 6.5 (related to social interaction, summoning, etc.)]

The prompt displayed by the "Eye of Truth" startled Shiraha.

Being bitten by Miroku actually boosted my Luck Value stat, increasing it by 6 points! My Charm also increased by 0.5. Is this the Priestess's Blessing?!

If you let her take a few more bites...

Wouldn't that make them the Child of the Plane?

Seeing Shiraha staring intently at her mouth, Miroku blushed slightly and explained, "Each Priestess can only give a blessing once in her lifetime, and it only works on those who share the Same Origin Power."

"I was too greedy," Shiraha said with an embarrassed smile. "Thank you, Your Highness Miroku."

"Your Excellency Shiraha, you are too kind. Compared to my blessing, what you bring to the Demon Country is far more precious." Miroku smiled shyly, stroking his flat stomach with both hands. "In about three years, once we have accumulated enough blessings, our daughter will be born."

"Well, congratulations then." Shiraha nodded with a smile, then suddenly realized something was wrong, his expression changed, and he exclaimed, "What did you say?! Our—!"

Boom!

At that moment, a loud crash came from outside the palace. Kushina, carrying Yomi, walked into the hall, looked at Shiraha with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Shiraha, what's your name? What's your name?"

Shiraha looked at Kushina suddenly walked into the hall and felt his heart skip a beat.

who I am?

Where did I come from?

Where should I go?

Kushina looked at Shiraha with a puzzled expression. "Why are you sweating? Are you hot?"

Shiraha: "Ah, this."

Think of a way to explain this quickly!

PS: The first book also included the Priestess's Blessing, but the plot was too rushed at the time, and I wasn't feeling well, so updates were slow. As a result, I didn't have time to write many interesting plot points. This book is a good opportunity to continue that story.
