Chapter 296 You and I are one body

As the two continued to go deeper, the environment inside the sealed ancestral hall slowly changed.

The originally dark passage began to emit a dazzling red light, which was like the eyes of a devil and was ominous.

At the same time, the scorching temperature came in waves like a surging tide, as if to melt everything.

Soon, when they reached the deepest part, the scene before them was even more terrifying.

The pitch-black sealed area has turned into a land of magma. The boiling magma is flowing and rolling like an angry river, constantly making a terrifying "sizzling" sound, as if showing its power to the intruders.

"You've grown up. You really look like Miroku."

At this moment, a deep voice that seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell broke the silence of the magma land. The voice echoed in this scorching space, revealing an indescribable weirdness.

Naruto and Shion subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a man in black lying on a sedan bed in the center of the lava land, slowly getting up.

From the extremely weak tone of his voice, it was not difficult to judge that he seemed to have reached the end of his strength and could not hold on for much longer.

"Now, let me formally introduce myself to the young witch. My name is Huang Quan, and I am the man whose ambitions were destroyed by your mother. You should still remember what happened that day, right? The resurrected Wuliang led us to recreate the Millennium Kingdom. If it weren't for your mother, the nosy witch, interfering, our ambition would have been realized long ago."

There was a gleam of resentment and unwillingness in the black-clothed man's eyes, as if he wanted to rekindle the hatred of the past.

"Come on, young priestess, aren't you going to seal me?" Huang Quan's voice sounded particularly eerie amid the sound of the rolling magma. A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and that smile was full of provocation to Shion.

Naruto frowned deeply, his furrowed brows full of solemnity.

He keenly felt the strong demonic energy emanating from Huang Quan.

That evil power made him feel truly uncomfortable.

Shion looked at Naruto deeply, her eyes contained complex emotions, including worry, determination, and a hint of imperceptible tenderness.

Then, as if she had made some important decision, she bit her lips tightly and walked towards Huang Quan firmly without saying a word.

Although her footsteps were a little heavy, each step was full of power, as if she was a fearless warrior facing the coming storm.

Seeing this, Naruto wanted to reach out to stop Shion, but his fingertips only touched her flowing hair.

He knew that Ziyuan had made up her mind at this moment and this was her mission.

Shiyuan approached Huangquan step by step. With every step, the surrounding magma rolled more violently, and the heat rushed towards her, almost swallowing her.

Huang Quan looked at Ziyuan who was gradually approaching, his eyes were like looking at a prey that had walked into a trap, and then he burst into a crazy laugh:

"Young miko, you probably don't know anything about yourself, right? You have been concentrating on the sealing technique all these years."

His voice echoed in this hot magma land, and every word seemed to be scorched by flames.

Shion stared closely at the man in front of her who exuded an evil aura, and a hint of steel-like firmness flashed in her eyes.

"For today, I have practiced the art of sealing day after day, year after year, and have never slacked off. My mission is to seal you completely so that you can no longer harm the world." Her words were loud and clear, causing invisible ripples in the scorching air.

Upon hearing this, Huang Quan couldn't help but throw his head back and burst into laughter. His laughter was as piercing as an owl's at night:

"Learn the sealing technique? Hahaha, then come and try to seal me! Can you do it? Poor little witch, let me tell you a cruel fact. Although I can't kill you, you definitely don't have the ability to destroy me. Do you know why? Because we are originally the same body. The so-called sealing is to combine you and me into one. Your mother Miroku is like this."

There was a smug and crazy light in his eyes, as if he had already seen Shion's collapsed expression.

When Ziyuan heard Huang Quan's words, her body suddenly stiffened, her eyes full of shock and disbelief: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I be in the same body as you!" Her voice trembled a little, and the firm belief in her heart seemed to have encountered a violent earthquake.

The corner of Huang Quan's mouth slowly curled up into an extremely cruel smile, that smile seemed like the darkness seeping out from the abyss of hell, which was chilling.

"The power of the miko is too strong. In order to prevent this power from being used incorrectly, she actually split her heart and mind in half. It's like a mirror being broken, creating two completely different existences."

He paused, his eyes flashing with a strange light, and continued: "The two halves have a grudge against each other and have lived separately for a long time. I don't know when they started to have different names, one is a witch and the other is a ghost. But these are just appearances, little girl. Let me tell you the truth, we are actually a whole, and our essence should be called - demon. This is an existence that transcends good and evil and transcends worldly understanding, and you, you want to seal me, it's really ridiculous."

His voice echoed in this magma-roiling space, and every word was like a heavy hammer, striking Shion's heart.

Shion's face turned extremely pale, her body trembling slightly, but there was still a hint of stubbornness in her eyes:

"No, I don't believe you. Even if we were once one, I will not let you continue to do evil."

Huang Quan sneered: "Don't believe it? Do you think your will can change anything? From the moment we split up, our fate was already determined. Your so-called kindness and justice are nothing but childish fantasies."

At this moment, a cold light flashed in Ziyuan's eyes, and she could no longer suppress the impulse in her heart.

He walked slowly and steadily towards the mysterious formation behind Huang Quan.

I saw his hands dancing like a butterfly flying through flowers, and he shouted loudly "launch, formation, release".

In an instant, a light suddenly appeared on the array plate, and four dazzling purple lights streaked across the array like meteors, shining brightly.

Then, the entire formation started to activate with a bang. The purple light began to flash violently like a surging tide, illuminating the surrounding space into a mysterious purple area.

Huang Quan raised his eyebrows slightly, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he snorted disdainfully: "Boundary? Hehehe"
