【As you watched, the Thunderbird returned to Konda Island from Yashiori Island, and habitually returned to its nesting ground】
【Mount Kanna】
【It has to be said, that shaman does have some skills. The ritual he held had a strange rhythm and power】
【The blood inside that ornate clock began to tremble, as if calling something to descend】
【Moments later, you heard the clear cry again, coming from afar on Mount Kanna】
【The sound drew nearer, swirling with wind and thunder. The Thunderbird's form appeared at the mountain peak, diving toward the Makuuchi Shrine】
【Everything went exactly as you planned】
…………
Makuuchi Shrine!
An ancient, primitive place of sacrifice, built entirely of rough, uneven stones.
Aside from the tall altar in the center, everything else was too simple to look at.
But for the Thunderbird, no matter how luxurious or dazzling the shrine, it held no attraction.
After all, it was a demon. Human worship was like trash to it. To it, humans were not far removed from beasts.
At this time, there were only a few people in the empty square of the shrine.
“Don't stop.”
Ordering the trembling shaman to continue the ritual movements, Luo Chen looked up slightly, gazing at the beautiful and arrogant demon bird in the sky.
It was called a demon, but its beautiful and noble posture was more like a divine creature.
“Master……”
Beside him, the earth spider, as large as a hill, gave a reminder, its entire body enveloped in black energy, ready for battle.
On his other side, there was a flamboyant woman in revealing clothes.
She was dressed in something similar to a blue-black kimono with a wide open neckline. Above her chest, her collarbones and shoulders were bare, her clothes held only by her proud slime breasts.
Looking at her upper body, she was undoubtedly a goddess among goddesses. Her gray hair covered her left eye, revealing a cold and vicious gaze.
But if you looked lower, that fear would surely stop a child from crying at night.
From her seductive, slender waist and hips downward, she was almost identical to the earth spider, a hideous black spider body.
Without a doubt, this was the second shikigami that Luo Chen had subdued, Jorogumo.
Compared to the earth spider, she stood a little closer to Luo Chen, mainly because of her size advantage.
At least compared to her other kind, she could be described as petite, only about half the size of a normal human.
“Master, let us go and test it first.”
Sweet and deadly words came from Jorogumo's lips.
Demons naturally submitted to the strong. In just a few days, she had been completely subdued by Luo Chen, who was from a higher level of existence.
Even her loyalty exceeded that of the earth spider.
Luo Chen guessed that it should have something to do with the effect of his “Sea King” talent.
Before he could answer, the Thunderbird, which had been diving from the top of Mount Kanna, was already approaching.
Carrying purple electric thunder, it had not yet arrived, and the suffocating air had already rushed towards them.
The wind from its flapping wings broke many plants and trees, sending sand and stones flying, stirring the wind and clouds.
Seeing this, the earth spider, without hesitation, was the first to charge.
Facing the Thunderbird, which was not much different in size, it spat out tough, sticky silk from its abdomen, like chains, binding towards its enemy.
The Thunderbird was stunned, not expecting the ritual to be a trap set for it. Then, anger at being deceived rose within it.
With a sharp cry, it burst into electric light, forming a net, destroying all the silk and easily breaking the attack.
“Filthy life……”
A human-like look of contempt flashed in its eyes. The Thunderbird decided to give a heavy lesson to these demons who dared to scheme and offend it.
As for the price, they would pay with their lives.
Perhaps the Thunderbird's mage image of controlling thunder and lightning gave the earth spider the wrong idea.
One attack failed, so it used its massive body to force open the flying stones, its eight claws quickly piercing the ground, trying to get close to the opponent for close combat.
But this was exactly what the Thunderbird wanted. It lifted one wing and struck forward without hesitation.
The agile flying creature displayed unprecedented violence.
As its wing blade, which was radiating electric arcs, collided with the black-energy-covered claws, in an instant, hundreds of fierce collisions occurred between them.
The harsh sound of metal clashing formed a series of explosions.
The earth spider never imagined that the Thunderbird was not just a mage, its melee combat was not weak at all.
Its sharp cry attacked the enemy's spirit. The Thunderbird flapped its wings wildly, its massive body like a whirlwind, its sharp wings cutting several claws at high speed.
The splashing lightning struck the surrounding area, making the shrine ravaged, as if it had been bombarded by missiles.
To be honest, the earth spider was a bit overwhelmed.
Its front claws were in excruciating pain. In a short while, they had been cut so deeply that bones were visible, and black blood was flowing down.
If it continued like this, its claws would definitely be cut off.
Jorgumo saw her colleague's predicament and immediately opened her small mouth, spitting out a thick, green mist that enveloped the Thunderbird.
The light, fluffy mist, unexpectedly, could not be blown away by the storm, making the Thunderbird very wary. It immediately broke free and quickly pulled away.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the earth spider's injured area was filled with black energy, repairing the wounds at a speed visible to the naked eye.
For a great demon, as long as it could not be killed in an instant, other injuries were not a problem.
It was only a means of forcing it back. Seeing that the Thunderbird had retreated to a safe distance and was unharmed, Jorogumo was not disappointed.
She placed her hand on the edge of her pale, cold lips and closed them. Then, with a gentle blow.
Unlike the previous probing retreat, her cherry-red mouth suddenly spit out a large amount of green mist, spreading like biogas and enveloping the entire shrine.
The thick green mist, in just a few seconds, sealed everyone present inside.
During this time, the Thunderbird did not sit back and wait for death. It let out an angry roar that pierced the sky.
Immediately, the originally clear and sunny weather suddenly became stormy.
Rumble, rumble!
The rolling thunder rumbled in the clouds, announcing the coming punishment from heaven.
