Chapter 214 It doesn't matter, I'll take action.
Kyoto, the land of cherry blossoms.
Onmyo-ryo Headquarters.
Abe Shōkichi stood by the window, watching the light outside gradually fade away.
Those lights lasted for about half an hour.
Then, it began to slowly dim.
Finally, it completely disappeared into the air.
But those scents did not dissipate.
They still exist.
The faint echoes came from the places where those meteors fell.
Although it's much fainter than before, it's still clearly perceptible.
Abe Shōkichi closed his eyes and carefully sensed those auras.
Ancient, primitive, powerful...
He took a deep breath and opened his eyes.
He turned around and returned to his desk.
Dozens of newly delivered reports were on the table.
Each report corresponds to a location where a meteor fell.
Abe Shōkichi picked up the top one and opened it.
[Crash Location: Sakyo Ward, Kyoto, Old Town Area]
[Time of fall: 12:17]
Meteor color: Gold
[Energy fluctuation level: Unknown (beyond monitoring limits)]
[Scene: At the site of the meteor's fall, the phantom of an ancient shrine appeared. The phantom lasted for about thirty minutes before dissipating. Inside the shrine were three statues of deities, which, based on preliminary identification, appear to be Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo.]
After reading the report, Abe Shōkichi's hands trembled slightly.
Amaterasu.
Tsukuyomi no Mikoto.
Susanoo.
Gao Tianyuan, the Three Noble Gods.
Is he really making a comeback?
He took a deep breath, put down the report, and picked up the next one.
[Crash Location: Nara, Kasugayama]
Meteor color: white
[Energy fluctuation level: Unknown (beyond monitoring limits)]
[Scene at the scene: At the point where the meteor fell, the phantom of an ancient shrine appeared. The phantom lasted for about thirty minutes before dissipating. Inside the shrine was a statue of a deity, which, based on preliminary identification, is suspected to be Takemikazuchi.]
Takemikazuchi.
The legendary God of War.
Abe Shōkichi's hands trembled even more violently.
He picked up the next one.
[Crash Location: Hokkaido]
Meteor color: Green
[Energy fluctuation level: Unknown (beyond monitoring limits)]
[Scene: The area where the meteor fell is shrouded by a barrier, making entry impossible. Ancient runes can be seen flowing across the barrier, and faint energy fluctuations emanate from within, suggesting the presence of some extraordinary entity.]
Extraordinary things?
A look of surprise instantly flashed in Abe Shōkichi's eyes.
This must be a gift from the gods to the cherry blossoms!
He continued reading.
One after another.
Some reports record that a shrine appeared out of nowhere, and that a legendary deity was enshrined in the shrine.
Amaterasu.
Tsukuyomi.
Susanoo.
Takemikazuchi.
Greatness is precious.
少彦名。
Great lord.
Ebisu.
Benzaiten.
Cloth bag.
……
One after another.
One by one.
There are more than thirty related reports.
More often, however, they are related to extraordinary things.
Abe Shōkichi put down the last report, leaned back in his chair, and let out a long sigh.
He sat there in silence for a long time.
Then, he suddenly laughed.
As I laughed, tears started flowing again.
He recalled the frustration he had felt these past few days.
I think of the despair of being isolated by the whole world.
I recall the helplessness of those overseas Chinese who were forced to "make sacrifices".
I recall the hatred in the eyes of those shikigami controlled by the blood sacrifice ritual.
I remember myself standing on that stage, full of vigor and confidence.
"The future of the Land of Cherry Blossoms is infinitely bright!"
At that time, he truly believed that Sakura Kingdom had a bright future.
Then, the sword came.
Everything was ruined.
but now……
The gods are returning! They will bestow extraordinary gifts upon the cherry blossoms!
They have hope again!
Abe Shōkichi wiped away his tears, sat up straight, and looked at the phone on the table.
My phone keeps ringing.
Messages came from the New World, Europe, and even some organizations he had never contacted before.
Inquire about the situation of those "shooting stars".
A cold smile crept onto Abe Shōkichi's lips as he recalled those reports.
Now you remember us?
late!
He turned off his phone, got up, and walked to the window.
Outside the window, the light had completely dissipated.
But those auras still linger.
"Just wait..."
"Abe Shōkichi murmured."
"When the gods have fully returned..."
"Everything will be different."
At that moment, his eyes seemed to be burning with a tangible flame.
……
Miao territory, Linggu Cave.
Inside the wooden building.
Li Jun sat by the window in his room, frowning as he watched a video on his phone.
In the video, beams of light fall from the sky like rain and then disappear on the horizon.
This footage was taken by a coastal resident of Daxia.
And there are many more videos like this, which have gone viral on Douyin and Kuaishou.
The comments section is full of discussions about what's going on.
What happened to Xiao Rizi again? Did he suffer divine retribution once more?
Li Jun frowned and put down his phone.
In his view, this was definitely not a natural phenomenon.
Seeing a meteor during the day is an extremely rare event.
Not to mention how dense it was, with so many colors, it looked like a bucket of paint had been spilled.
This strange phenomenon definitely indicates that something unusual has happened in Japan.
but……
What exactly is it?
Li Jun opened his contacts and hovered his finger over President Qin's name.
I hesitated, wondering whether I should make a phone call and ask.
But just then...
My phone suddenly rang.
But just then...
My phone suddenly rang.
Caller ID: Mr. Qin.
Li Jun paused for a moment, then answered the call.
"Master Li, I hope I didn't disturb your rest?" Mr. Qin's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"No," Li Jun said. "Is there something you need, Mr. Qin?"
"Master, have you seen the situation in Japan?"
"I saw it."
"That's good." President Qin on the other end of the phone took a deep breath and quickly explained the situation in Japan.
The way meteors fall.
The burst of light.
An ancient and primitive atmosphere.
and also……
Energy monitoring data.
"Daoist Master, according to the energy peak data reset by young friend Yin Jian, the energy fluctuations emitted by those meteors are all above the Dao Integration level, with the strongest even reaching five times the standard value of the Dao Integration realm."
"And the total number is in the thousands."
President Qin's voice carried an uncontrollable gravity.
Thousands of Dao Integration Realm cultivators.
What does this mean?
Currently, in the Great Xia Dynasty, there are only two Dao Integration Realm cultivators on the surface: Yin Jian and Lan Nianzhen.
Moreover, they have only just entered this realm and have not yet fully stabilized it.
If there really are thousands of Dao Integration Realm cultivators in Japan...
The pressure on the Great Xia will be unprecedented.
After listening, Li Jun remained silent for a few seconds.
Then, he suddenly found it somewhat amusing.
I never imagined that one day my good brother would become a unit of measurement for strength.
Although Yin Jian caused quite a commotion that day, he thought it was just so-so.
The strongest fluctuations in Japan right now are only five times stronger than Yin Jian's.
No matter how many come, it's not a concern.
Just then, Li Jun heard hurried footsteps coming from outside.
It's Jin Hao.
This kid probably saw the video too.
Li Jun calmly said to President Qin on the other end of the phone:
"President Qin, they are just some demons and monsters, nothing to fear. Just continue to observe them."
"In case of unforeseen circumstances..."
He paused.
"I will take action."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
