In the Shinobi World world, the Land of Earth is renowned for its majestic mountain ranges and rocky terrain. The Daimyo of the Land of Earth has ruled this land for generations. However, following the rule of the Land of Water by Tian Yukihime, the Land of Earth also welcomed a ruthless figure: Tian Uguisu, who subdued the entire Ryūchi Cave. The capital of the Land of Earth was stained red with blood overnight, becoming Tian Uguisu's stage for a bloody massacre. Tian Uguisu, accompanied by her summoning White Snake Sage Bai Jiu, arrived in the capital of the Land of Earth, unleashing a reign of terror.
When Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu arrived at the capital of the Land of Earth, it was sunset. The sky was dyed blood red by the setting sun, as if foreshadowing the impending disaster. The city walls of the capital soared into the clouds, and the entire Land of Earth appeared peaceful and serene. However, this tranquility was soon shattered by a human and a snake.
"What kind of monster is this? How dare you trespass into the capital of the Land of Earth!" A furious shout rang out from the city wall. An Onmyoji dressed in a black mage's robe stood on the wall, his figure appearing exceptionally tall in the setting sun. He held an ancient staff in his hand, his eyes flashing with a cold light, his expression extremely solemn as he stared at a woman and a huge eight-headed white snake that were approaching slowly and recklessly from afar.
"You rats of the Land of Earth, today you either submit to me, or it is your doom." Tian Uguisu's voice was as cold as ice. She stood on one of Bai Jiu's snake heads, her gaze sweeping across the guards on the city wall like a knife. Bai Jiu's eight snake heads swayed slightly, emitting low hissing sounds, as if warning of the impending disaster.
Iwasuzume is the guardian of the Daimyo of the Land of Earth, an Onmyoji of unfathomable strength. His eyes flash with a cold light, as if all things in the world are under his control. He tightly grips an ancient staff, the top of which is inlaid with a black gem that exudes a sinister aura. This gem is the source of Iwasuzume's power and the key to his powerful spells.
The battle began with a cold laugh. Iwasuzume sneered, waving his staff, from which black runes flew out. These runes rapidly condensed in the air, transforming into countless enormous black arrows, carrying powerful killing intent, heading straight for Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu. The arrows Space Break with a sharp whistling sound, as if they wanted to tear everything apart.
However, Tian Uguisu's speed was astonishing. She transformed into a blur, instantly appearing before Iwasuzume, her Kunling Earth Spirit Divine Spear piercing out like a venomous snake. The spear was incredibly fast, carrying immense power, aimed directly at Iwasuzume's throat. A flicker of surprise crossed Iwasuzume's eyes, but he remained calm. He swiftly swung his staff, unleashing a black light barrier in front of him, blocking Tian Uguisu's attack. The spear collided with the light barrier, producing a deafening roar, the powerful shockwave scattering outwards, as if tearing apart the surrounding air.
Iwasuzume sneered, muttering incantations as he began to unleash an even more powerful Onmyoji skill. He softly chanted an ancient spell, his voice deep and powerful, like a call from the distant past. As he chanted, the surrounding air began to distort, and a powerful, eerie aura spread out. Suddenly, a black mist rose from the ground, enveloping Iwasuzume's body. From within the black mist, faint, low roars could be heard, as if some powerful being was about to be summoned.
"Shikigami, heed my summons and emerge!" Iwasuzume's voice echoed through the black mist, filled with majesty and command. As his words fell, streaks of eerie green light suddenly shone from the black mist. With each flash of light, shikigami of various shapes slowly emerged from the black mist, their eyes gleaming with a cold and merciless light, as if they were messengers from Hell.
The first to appear was a gigantic black wolf shikigami. Its entire body was as black as ink, its eyes flashed with blood-red light, and its fangs were incredibly sharp, as if capable of tearing everything apart. The black wolf shikigami let out a low roar, its voice filled with murderous intent and ferocity. With a leap, it charged towards Tian Uguisu like an arrow released from a bow, its sharp claws carrying immense power, aiming straight for Tian Uguisu's chest.
Immediately afterward, a gigantic Crow shikigami emerged from the black mist. Its wingspan was several meters, its feathers were jet black and glossy, and its eyes gleamed with an eerie light. The Crow shikigami let out a piercing cry, its voice filled with evil and curses. It flapped its enormous wings, creating a powerful gust of wind, and swooped down towards Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu, its sharp claws and beak like blades, ready to tear them to shreds.
Besides the black wolf and the Crow, more shikigami were summoned by the Iwasuzume. A gigantic spider shikigami emerged from the black mist, its eight thick legs and body covered in thick black fur, its abdomen emitting a ghostly green glow. It swiftly wove a massive black Spiderweb, its Spiderweb radiating a powerful stickiness that seemed capable of trapping anything within it. It hurled the Spiderweb towards Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu, intending to ensnare them.
A gigantic serpentine spirit emerged from the black mist, its body hundreds of feet long, its scales shimmering with an eerie green light. The serpentine spirit raised its head high, its blood-red tongue flicking, its eyes flashing with chilling killing intent. It swiftly swam towards Bai Jiu, its body like a black lightning bolt, preparing to coil around Bai Jiu and strangle him with its immense power.
Faced with the numerous shikigami summoned by Iwasuzume, Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu's situation became extremely dire. Tian Uguisu was agile, constantly dodging the attacks of the black wolf and Crow, while her Earth Spirit Divine Spear was constantly wielded, each attack carrying powerful force to repel the shikigami. She was incredibly fast, like a white lightning bolt, weaving through the siege of the numerous shikigami, searching for an opening.
Bai Jiu transformed into a gigantic white-scaled Orochi, its scales shimmering with a dazzling silver-white light. He used his powerful Immortal Power to defend against the attacks of the spider and serpent shikigami, his body constantly coiling around them, engaging in a one-sided, brutal battle with the serpent shikigami. Bai Jiu's Immortal Power was incredibly strong, emanating a powerful aura that seemed capable of shattering anything that stood in its way.
However, Iwasuzume did not stop his attack. He swung his staff again, the black gem at the tip of the staff gleaming even more brightly. With the swing of his staff, black runes flew out from the staff, transforming into beams of black light that shot towards Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu. These beams of light carried immense power, seemingly capable of piercing through anything that stood in their way.
Tian Uguisu and Bai Jiu were surrounded by numerous shikigami while also dodging Iwasuzume's magical attacks. They had already sustained some minor injuries. Tian Uguisu hadn't expected the Daimyo of the Land of Earth to have such a strong trump card; this Onmyoji's fighting style was unpredictable and extremely difficult to deal with. Tian Uguisu activated the predictive ability of her Mangekyō Sharingan. Tian Uguisu's speed surged again, becoming so fast that it was almost invisible. She transformed into a series of afterimages, reappearing before Iwasuzume, her Earth Spirit Divine Spear thrusting out like a phantom.
"You think an attack of this level can stop me?" Tian Uguisu's voice was filled with disdain. Her Earth Spirit Divine Spear, imbued with powerful Chakra, pierced straight through Iwasuzume's defenses. A look of terror appeared on Iwasuzume's face as his body was pierced by the Earth Spirit Divine Spear, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
"No... impossible, how could you be so strong! My shikigami..." Iwasuzume's voice was filled with resentment. His body twisted in the air a few times before crashing heavily onto the city wall, turning into a twisted corpse. Tian Uguisu stepped on Iwasuzume's corpse and coldly looked at the various shikigami that Bai Jiu had killed below the city wall.
"Who's next?" Her voice echoed in the wind, like the whisper of Death God. The guards on the city walls were intimidated by her aura and retreated. Tian Uguisu's gaze swept across the entire capital; her target was only the daimyo's mansion in the Land of Earth.
