Chapter 119 - The Only Lifeline

*BOOM!*

Onmyōjutsu echoing between heaven and earth continuously collided, sounding very loud above the completely silent Kyoto.

Doman and Yoshihira continuously unleashed various Onmyōjutsu they mastered. Onmyōjutsu that appeared ordinary, perfected to the extreme in both their hands, produced power several times or even more than ten times that of ordinary Onmyōji.

Five Elements Onmyōjutsu conquering and generating each other.

Onmyōjutsu manipulating thousands of thunders continuously fighting and competing.

Heaven and earth continuously shook under the collision and confrontation of both their Onmyōjutsu.

For a time, it was truly like an Onmyōjutsu feast continuously staged before everyone. Even the Onmyōji who knew the danger they faced couldn't help but be immersed in it.

"Swift as a decree, Acala Fire Boundary Mantra!"

A hot fire tornado sufficient to melt steel rushed toward Doman. The terrifying high temperature swept around, as if it would dry up all moisture between heaven and earth. Kagura, who had already retreated to the side, was pressed by such terrifying high temperature, and retreated again and again. Only after retreating hundreds of meters could she barely use spiritual power to withstand it.

"Terrifying Acala Fire Boundary Mantra!!!"

Miyachi Iwao, who was inside the barrier, saw this very familiar Onmyōjutsu to him, which turned out to be able to unleash such terrifying power, and couldn't help but be shocked. As one of the Agency Hall's Twelve Divine Generals, Demon Fire, he was even respected in Onmyōdō as 'Son Bestowed by Acala'. It was not an exaggeration at all to say his Acala Fire Boundary Mantra had reached perfection level.

However, compared to an old man like Yoshihira, who had practiced for thousands of years, it was still far from enough.

Once again, these usually complacent Onmyōji realized the distance between them and those seniors.

"Ehehehe... Yoshihira, you also haven't wasted these thousands of years. This Acala Fire Boundary Mantra truly impressed me!"

Doman couldn't help but praise. The Five Elements in his hands continuously rotated, with Water power as primary, aided by other Five Elements powers, forming terrifying huge waves. Those waves were rushing and surging. What was more terrifying was that countless metal swords were hidden within those huge waves.

Five Elements generating each other, Five Elements conquering each other, rotating in reverse!

*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*

A large amount of white water vapor rose, and at the same time, within that white mist was followed by blade and sword shadows.

The white mist disappeared. Doman still stood safely in place, but one of Yoshihira's arms had been severed, and blood continuously flowed.

"Yoshihira-sama!"

Ariyuki and the others were shocked, and wanted to go help. However, Yoshihira waved his hand, signaling them to continue guarding the barrier. The barrier related to the original family head's breakthrough and ascension was most important.

After that, Yoshihira sighed, and stared at Doman, saying: "I was careless. Indeed the thousands of years of exile have improved my Onmyōdō, but unfortunately the combat aspect has declined too severely."

"Monk, you win this time, but winning the fight against me won't change anything!"

"That's not certain!" Doman said meaningfully.

Without waiting for Yoshihira to say anything further, a voice carrying slight dissatisfaction and majesty sounded in everyone's ears.

"Ashiya Doman, repeatedly disrupting my plans, you truly think I don't dare kill you!"

After hearing this familiar voice, the confused Gitsune regained a little spirit, until she saw the distorted space, and Seimei who stepped out from it with an incomparably gloomy and cold expression, that spirit dimmed again.

Behind Seimei, Rizevim still followed with a slightly playful expression. It's just that his gaze currently directly ignored Doman, instead he looked around, as if searching for something.

"He came?"

"Do you think Ashiya Doman can withstand Seimei?"

"I'm afraid it's quite difficult."

"..."

Seeing Seimei's appearance, almost all Onmyōji trapped inside the barrier placed their last hope on Doman.

This scene made outsiders feel very ironic.

After all, Doman before was a forbidden Onmyōji hunted and hated by all Onmyōji organizations. He was listed as wanted number one, and now this wanted number one had become their only lifeline.

Wasn't that very ironic!

"You already escaped before, why must you seek death again."

Seimei glanced at Doman. Both his hands formed seals. Instantly, the barrier light trapping the Onmyōji shone brightly. At this most critical moment, he wanted to squeeze all these Onmyōji's life energy at once, successfully breaking through and advancing to the Transcendent realm. Doman, who only had Devil King-level strength, was no longer his concern.
