Chapter 2202: Simulation of the Big Bang
Kiyohime, a snake demon, disguised herself as a half-demon as Seo Kyung-seon, one of the Four Consorts, and just as she rushed out of the Konya, she was locked onto by the evil gaze of Saegusa Ukon, the leader of the Black Finger Party, who was possessed by Amakusa Shiro.
He swung his demon katana and delivered a long-range slash!
The Oni-Tachi is none other than Onimaru Kunitsuna, one of the Five Great Swords of Japan.
This is a famous sword forged by a blacksmith after three years of fasting. Legend has it that after pacifying the country, Hojo Tokimasa, the first regent of the Kamakura Shogunate, was plagued by sleepless nights by mischievous spirits, and even rituals performed by sorcerers and onmyoji (yin-yang masters) were ineffective. Tokimasa eventually fell ill and was deeply distressed. One night, he dreamt that a tachi (a type of long sword) appeared before him in the form of an old man, saying, "My body is too dirty to save you. Let a clean person cleanse my body." Then it transformed back into its original tachi form. Tokimasa believed this dream deeply, and the next day he immediately cleaned the tachi: He lit a brazier in his room, and on the brazier he noticed the shadow of a demon, very similar to the demon that appeared in his dreams every night. At that moment, the tachi guarding Tokimasa fell towards the brazier, swiftly severing the demon's head. From then on, Tokimasa's illness gradually improved and he recovered completely. For this, Tokimasa named the sword "Onimaru," and it became a family heirloom of the Hojo clan. Later, the Hojo clan perished along with the Kamakura Shogunate. Onimaru passed through the hands of Nitta Yoshisada and was circulated among rulers such as Ashikaga, Oda, and Toyotomi. During the Meiji era, it was collected by the Japanese Emperor.
With the burst of crescent-shaped blade energy, it was as if countless hideous demon heads were revealed from a torn hell.
That's right, they were all demon heads cut off by Onimaru Kunitsuna.
These demon heads, severed by a single slash, came in groups of three, spewing curses and ghostly fire as they lunged at Consort Xu Jingshan.
Wu Chen immediately recognized the source: "Be careful, they are 'dance heads'."
In Japanese folklore, there is a monster called "Maikyuu." It consists of three human heads, representing the three villains "Kosanta," "Akagoro," and "Matashige," who were burdened with blood debts in their past lives. These three quarreled over a trivial matter, which escalated into a fight, resulting in their heads being severed. However, their resentment caused them to continue their struggle, their hair becoming tangled and intertwined, binding them together into one monster. It often appears at sea, breathing fire and stirring up raging waves, its appearance accompanied by shouts and curses; on nights of high tide, the three heads fly up and tear each other apart.
"Hmph! Still a sorcerer." The Four Consorts, Xu Jingshan, remained calm and composed in the face of battle. She had already seen through Amakusa Shiro, who was possessing the Black Finger Gang leader, Sanegae Ukon, and realized he was a sorcerer from the evil faction of Onmyoji.
Among the sorcerers of his time, Amakusa Shiro might only rank second in terms of skill. The number one sorcerer was Kin'eji Jibei. Kin'eji Jibei was a Catholic missionary active in Japan during the Shimabara Rebellion. Church records refer to him as Thomas de Saint Augustine (his baptismal name), and his Japanese name was Thomas Ochiai. His father, Leo Koemon, and mother, Clara, were both martyrs. He studied at Arima Seminary and was fluent in Latin. After the Great Martyrdom in 1622, the twenty-two-year-old Kin'eji Jibei went to Manila to become an Augustinian priest. In 1630, he disguised himself and infiltrated Japan as a missionary, infiltrating the stables of Takenaka Ume, the magistrate of Nagasaki. On December 6, 1637, before the outbreak of the Shimabara Rebellion, he was arrested in Nagasaki on charges of participating in the uprising and hanged.
As the leader of the Shimabara Rebellion, Amakusa Shiro's sorcery was among the best.
With a single, casual swing of the sword, a hellish scene of demons running rampant can be unleashed.
Furthermore, because this is the place where the female protagonist, Asahina Chisa, met her end, the distorted branching lines gathered in this azure house are far more powerful than those in the previous dilapidated houses that were also chaotically teleported into by Shizana Reiko. This also means that the characters in the story, as the carriers of the plot, are also far more powerful than the characters in the previous dilapidated houses.
This is the same rule as how the main character can withstand more powerful plot-driven deaths than the supporting character.
The most effective way to combat malevolent energy is through spiritual energy. Even if a Cyber Banshee born from the "Secret Realm's One-Layer Drink" hasn't yet been engraved with the "Ω Cyber (Banshee) Ring" and cannot obtain the terrifying empowerment of the "Shangri-La Heart Ring" + "Life (Fountain of Life) Gift Ring" (which grants instant star-up for those with less than five frames and guarantees breaking through frames for those with more than five frames; the "Gift Ring" grants instant breaking through five frames), the 120cc of spiritual energy from the Fountain of Immortality contained in the one-ladle drink is sufficient. This is because, unlike the possessed demons whose inner cores are shattered, the "Four Primordial Consorts" were originally snake spirits that had already undergone transformation, and their demon cores had already formed.
As mentioned earlier, one of the most important achievements of the unique fusion technology line of the 0326 Star Cube Base, the core principle of the "Secret Realm Drink" which is made by mixing 20cc of the Fountain of Immortality and 1 seed capsule to give birth to the Cyber Banshee is to make the separation of spirit and flesh clearer: the true body and the original form.
The most crucial role of the seed capsule in the entire fusion technology is the "simulation of the Big Bang." As is well known, the seed capsule can transform all matter within the blast radius into shapeshifting elements, but it cannot transform spiritual energy (spiritual body). Therefore, the spiritual energy contained within the 120cc Fountain of Immortality is entirely extracted by the seed capsule to shape the true body (please understand this accurately). Broadly speaking, the true body is "formed with the inner core as its core, the spiritual essence materialized." Just as the formation of rain and snow requires a "condensation nucleus," spiritual energy, in order to shape a body, also requires a sufficiently powerful core. The inner core of a demon is the most suitable core. In other words, even if the cultivation is not yet complete, and the separation of spirit and flesh has not yet been achieved—separating the spirit from the original form, refining the spirit into the "true body," and the original form into a "magical weapon"—after a female demon swallows the "Secret Realm's One-Layer Drink" lotus, this seed bomb simulating the "Big Bang" will directly transform the original physical body entirely into shapeshifting elements. The spirit body, forcibly separated by the explosion, absorbed 120cc of spiritual energy released from the Fountain of Immortality and directly refined its true form.
This is the operating principle of "A Glimpse of the Secret Realm." It's likened to a "simulation of the Big Bang" because the process of separating the spirit from the body is like using an expanding singularity to push matter throughout the universe; the antimatter purified in place naturally forms the Dirac Sea. To give an analogy everyone can understand: if you could "change the size of the mesh" to catch all the white fish, then the fish tank would be filled with only black fish. Therefore, in the Big Bang theory, as the universe expands and visible spacetime unfolds, what remains at the center of the Big Bang must be the unfathomable Dirac Sea. Moreover, the closer to the center of the Big Bang, the more unfathomable the Dirac Sea becomes.
Thus, a complete demon core made the entire "Big Bang simulation" process incredibly smooth.
