Chapter 352: Nine-Tailed Fox Transformation Technique
Tsuchigumo, carrying a wooden box on his back, walked leisurely on the mountain road, just like an everyday peddler or artist, but who would have thought that this seemingly kind uncle was actually a veteran ninja from the Moroboshi family.

Ninja's career is a rather short-lived one, with most ninjas' careers often lasting only a few years or even a few missions, and there is no retirement, only death.

Even if they are seriously injured or disabled, they will often be abandoned and given the final mercy. This is a ninja.

The brutal career path has resulted in ninjas being very short of resources and time to improve themselves. Even those old ninja organizations will only give some resources to a few geniuses, and the duration will not be long.

The reason is simple, because even a genius cannot guarantee that he can survive the cruel missions and battles, and once he dies, all the previous investments will be wasted.

So instead of risking everything on one throw, it is better to share the risk. This way you may not succeed, but you won’t be easily cut off either.

The Moroboshi family is different. Although they value ability, they are not lacking in humanity. Therefore, as the earliest ninja to follow, Tsuchigumo has obtained a lot of resources, enough to make his peers envious.

In addition, the Moroboshi family always made sufficient preparations for each external expansion and had never lost in a head-on battle. Therefore, there were no frequent and cruel missions to be carried out, so Tsuchigumo had a lot of time to improve and perfect his skills.

This time they went out because the ninjas of the Moroboshi family noticed something nearby, but they were still unable to confirm what it was, so they reported the situation.

After receiving the information, Mori Yu was not careless. Even though there was no clue, she believed in the intuition of those ninjas, so Tsuchigumo went out this time.

Tsuchigumo had naturally read the relevant information. Like Mori Yu, he believed that there was indeed a problem here. Because of the level of the Moroboshi family ninjas, the biggest problem was that they could not find any problems.

In this damn world today, how could it be possible that other places are completely safe except for important towns guarded by large armies and temples?

These guesses were correct, but unfortunately the three of them found out too late. It was not until they became dazed and saw the fog rising around them that they realized they had been tricked.

"Oh no, it's the hidden place of gods, it's a trap!" Long was almost having a headache. She never thought that since the centipede incident, they would fall into a trap again. However, it would be difficult to escape and ask for help this time.

In fact, Shenyin belongs to a kind of domain. Its weakness is like a ghost wall, and its strength is like a self-contained space. But no matter what, it is not easy to escape from it, not to mention that the person behind the scenes will not be watching.

"Buy me some time!" Izumi knew that the life and death of the three people and the raccoon cat was in her hands. She immediately concentrated her mind to sense the gap in the Hidden Land, that is, the secret path out of the Hidden Land.

Neither the ghost wall nor the space can completely separate them from the real world, so as long as they find the hidden gaps, they can escape.

Unfortunately, just as Long had expected, the people behind the scenes did not intend to give them a chance.

From the surrounding woods walked out girls wearing fox masks and shrine maiden costumes. They had empty eyes and stiff movements, like puppets on strings, appearing and disappearing in the mist of the mountains and forests like ghosts.

With a bang, Asha fired, but the bullet went through, making only a hole in the tree.

"It's a spirit, and the mask may be a possession." Long immediately made an accurate judgment, and didn't even have time to feel pity for these girls. These fox-masked girls were obviously village girls who were tricked away by the fox dancers as sacrifices. Now that they have become spirits, they have obviously met with misfortune, and even their souls cannot rest in peace, becoming tools driven by the murderer.

However, Long and the others were helpless in this regard. Not to mention that they themselves could not protect themselves, even if they were free, they did not know how to perform the rituals of the monks and the shrine maidens, so they could only perform physical rituals.

As a demon-hunting ninja, Oboro has extensive experience in dealing with demons and monsters, and knows that spirits are immune to attacks from swords and guns. When the only Onmyoji concentrates on finding a way to disappear, they can only rely on themselves.

Fortunately, these girl spirits did not get rid of their possessed objects. After Asha shattered a mask, the girl spirits disappeared.

But this also angered the people behind the scenes. As the fox sounds rang out, the resentment of these young girls' spirits increased a lot, and their movements became faster and more bizarre, leaving no time for Long and the others to reload their weapons.

After firing the last shot, Long and Asha decisively drew out their short blades.

Since the Demon Hunter Ninja has the word "Ninja" in its name, its fighting style is naturally more like that of a ninja. He is flexible, sharp, and agile. His long legs are not just for show. He has plenty of explosive power. Combined with his strong core strength and solid chassis, he can let the two counterweights on his upper body sway left and right and shake up and down without being affected at all. He can even use centrifugal force to make the cut more powerful.

Although the fox mask of the girl's spirit is a possession, it is only slightly harder than an ordinary mask. With Long and Asha's skills, it is not difficult to split it even if they are weak. Therefore, the girl's spirits dissipated as they lost their possession, which was a relief for them.

"As expected of you, you are a Demon Hunter Ninja. I really underestimated you. That's why you keep looking for trouble with me. I haven't offended you." The Fox Dancer walked out surrounded by several young girls' spirits with a resentful tone. Even the three tails behind her shook in dissatisfaction.

"You grew a tail?" Long stared at the fox dancer's tail, which was lifelike and not an illusion of a spirit, and couldn't help but tighten the short blade in his hand.

It's not like she had never seen someone use the technique of transforming a monster before, but this was the first time she had seen someone grow a tail, especially since the other party had three tails. Long instinctively felt a huge sense of crisis.

"Nine-tailed Fox Transformation Technique?! You are practicing the Nine-tailed Fox Transformation Technique!" Because she was too shocked, Izumi, who was busy perceiving, suffered the backlash, just like being punched, and her nose was bleeding. But she did not care about much else and pointed at the fox dancer's tail and screamed.

"Haha, you have some knowledge, but unfortunately it's not a good thing." Not many people knew about the Nine-tailed Fox Transformation Technique, and yet she was recognized by others. This made the Fox Dancer feel that the three people opposite should not be kept, because they had ruined her plans twice.

The first time she broke the centipede, and the second time her ritual was interrupted. She didn't know if it would attract some troublesome beings, so she decided to end it quickly.

The fox tail, which was taller than a human, swayed gently and produced three balls of faint blue fox fire, but they did not fly out directly. The fox dancer used his fingers as a pen and fire as ink, and simply drew a few strokes, and they became three fox fire talismans. Quan Mei gasped several times when she saw it.

Although he took advantage of the power of fox fire, it was also like drawing talismans out of thin air, an ability only great Onmyojis possess.

A three-tailed fox demon and a big Onmyoji, Izumi has already considered what kind of pose she should have after death so as to appear poignant and show the cruel beauty of death and decay.
