At that time, Japan was still in the Heian era, and Saixing Temple was one of the many famous temples in Japan. Few people knew the exact location of Xixing Temple because it was not an ordinary temple that burned incense, worshiped Buddha, and recited scriptures. When ordinary people heard of Xixing Temple, they would definitely hear that there were demons and ghosts nearby. Xixing Master had accepted a commission to go out and eliminate the demons.
The original Master of the West was known as Sato Yoshikiyo. He became a monk at the age of 23. Master Xixing was famous for his singing and spiritual power. He had once served Emperor Bird Feather and was worshipped as the " Warrior of the North." Later, he killed demons and was worshiped as a national protector.
At that time, the dynasty had changed, and a seven-tailed demon fox appeared in the Kanto region. The Emperor sent people to catch it, but the demon fox was cunning. It often turned into human form and could use illusions to confuse people's minds, so it failed repeatedly. However, this demon fox was very stupid and did not want to kill anyone, so there was an endless stream of people who wanted to capture it.
The Emperor invited the Master of the West to go out, and the Master of the West sent a letter: "The emperor sent so many monks and witch girls to capture that fox demon, but they all used dangerous witchcraft. Now that the seven-tailed fox was safe and sound, it was obvious that it had remarkable abilities. However, it was unwilling to hurt people's lives. It could be seen that it still wanted to live in peace with people. It was better to ask the emperor not to send people to disturb it in the future.”
The Emperor laughed at Master Xixing's old age, so he invited Master Hongfa. Master Hong Fa had once killed a five-tailed demon fox and became famous in Japan. Master Hong Fa took the opportunity to mock Master Xi Xing.""It seems that Sato is no longer suitable to be a Kingdom Protector.”
The Emperor took the opportunity to goad Master Xi Xing into resigning from his position as the Kingdom Protector. Master Xi Xing had no choice but to agree to subdue the Seven-tailed Fox. However, Master Hong Fa did not agree. He believed that only the strongest mage could subdue the Seven-tailed Fox, so he proposed to fight with the Westbound Mage.
Before the battle, the two of them told the Emperor about their divine powers.
Master Hong Fa used the Seven Glory Magic. The Sun Glory Technique could control the changes of day and night, the Moon Glory Technique could make oneself invisible, the Gold Glory Technique could control gold and copper weapons with one's telekinesis, the Wood Glory Technique could make plants move as one wished, the Water Glory Technique could command rivers, lakes, and seas, the Fire Glory Technique could burn down cities, and the Earth Glory Technique could cause mountains to collapse and the earth to crack. The Emperor was horrified.
Wizard Xi Xing used six sorcery spells. The Heavenly Supreme Dao allowed one to control the power of the gods, the Asura Supreme Dao allowed one to be immune to all poisons and swords, the Human Dao allowed one to control one's mind with Psyche Power, the Beast Supreme Dao allowed one to command vicious birds and beasts with one's will, the Hungry Ghost Supreme Dao allowed one to control evil spirits and ghosts, and the Hell Supreme Dao allowed one to travel freely between the human world and hell. The Emperor was terrified after seeing this.
After the two altars were built, Master Hong Fa first chanted a spell and commanded 111 samurai swords to stab at Master Xi Xing in three directions. Master Westbound was well versed in the Path of Asura, so swords and sabers could not hurt him. Master Hong Fa was afraid of revealing his flaws, so he summoned the night. He was invisible in the darkness, and no one could find him. The Emperor ordered 1,000 followers to bring torches to light up the night.
Master Nishikyo chanted the Heavenly God Mantra and summoned the Subo-jin and the Yasaka Shin-na. The Yasaka God controlled the sky, so the moon went back and the sun came out again. The world was bright again. Wizard Westbound controlled the dog in the palace. The dog smelled Wizard Hong Fa and told Wizard Westbound. Master Xi Xing used the power of the human world to control Master Hong Fa's mind.
Master Hong Fa's will instantly blurred. He used the Brilliant Earth Spell, hoping to shatter the altar of the Westbound Wizards. However, Master Westbound asked God Suwa to stabilize the earth. Mage Westbound summoned a ghost, and the ghost grabbed Mage Hong Fa and knocked his staff away. Therefore, Master Hong Fa had no choice but to admit defeat.
This was the famous " Battle of Spells in front of the Palace of Peace ". Afterwards, the ghost wanted to eat Master Hong Fa, but Master Xi Xing could not bear to hurt him, so he canceled the summoning. The ghost disappeared and saved Master Hong Fa's life.
After everyone paid their respects to the two gods, the two gods left. Master Westbound had two appointments with the Emperor. If he was willing to comply, he would go and capture the Seven-tailed Fox. Which two things? One was the state affairs. Master Xi Xing knew that the monster hunter would be crippled even if he didn't die, so he hoped that the Emperor would appoint Master Hong Fa as the protector of the country. The second was family matters. He would expand the small scale Xixing Temple and turn it into a place to train monster hunters. He would let himself or his descendants take charge of everything in Xixing Temple.
Thus, the real Xixing Temple appeared. Master Hong Fa admired Master Xi Xing after the battle. He had done his best to help the rise of Xixing Temple. As for the great battle between the Wizard Westbound and the Seven-tailed Fox, it was another story. In the end, both sides suffered heavy injuries. The Seven-Tailed Fox was severely injured, and Master Xixing's divine power was crippled. From then on, he could only manage Xixing Temple or recite poems.
Master Nishikyo was very active at the end of the Heian period and the Kamakura period after that. The demons were scared away when they heard the name of Nishikyo Temple.
However, Xixing Temple encountered the most troublesome monster. This demon took on the appearance of a seventeen-year-old girl. She held a parasol in her hand and wore strange clothes. Her name was wanted by the royal palace and the Westbound Temple respectively. Her name was Purple Eight Clouds, a demon that was even older than Ignaki. It was said that if she used 50% of her power, she could flatten Mount Fuji.
After the battle with Wizard Westbound, the Seven-Tailed Fox broke through her limits and transformed into a Nine-Tailed Fox. However, the heavy injuries inflicted by the Westbound Mage had left it on the verge of death. This demon named Eight Clouds Purple easily revived her and took in the Nine-Tailed Fox as her Spirit-branded Retainer. Her name was Eight Clouds Blue. From then on, the Nine-Tailed Fox, Eight Cloud Blue, was invincible in the human world. The Westbound Temple knew that they could not defeat her, so they could only give up on the plan to capture the Nine-Tailed Fox. Moreover, the master of the Nine-tailed Fox was even more frightening. After all, the master's demonic power was something that a Spirit-branded Retainer could only dream of. Many people guessed that the Pingan Shogunate could not do anything to Purple Eight Clouds. Even if all of Japan attacked together, they would not be able to pose any threat to this monster called Purple Eight Clouds.
A few years after Yoshiki Sato defeated the Seven-Tailed Fox, something happened at the Westbound Temple.
All the demons killed by the Westbound Temple were buried in the Wuwang Pagoda. The tower was filled with a sinister aura, and ghosts could be vaguely seen. The Undesirable Tower was surrounded by cherry blossoms. One day, a cherry blossom seed fell into the Undesirable Tower. It used the ghostly aura as light and the demonic power as water. It quickly grew and turned into a demonic tree. Coincidentally, there were three years of peace, and the evil spirits also went into hibernation. Thus, the Undesirable Tower was sealed for three years. Three years later, the demon tree had already eaten all the demons in the pagoda and was anxious to break free from the pagoda's restraints. By the time Master Hong Fa realized the threat of the demon tree, it was already too late. The demon tree's magical power was comparable to the nine-tailed fox. The entire pagoda was broken by the strong trunk of the demon tree. Under the guidance of Master Hong Fa, the monks of Xixing Temple temporarily sealed the demonic aura of the demonic tree and trapped it in the cherry blossom forest of Xixing Temple. From then on, this place became a forbidden area. No one was allowed to enter. However, the demonic tree in the seal kept attacking the seal. Only the Dharma Master could repair the damage, but there was still demonic power seeping in, tempting mortals to come under the cherry blossom tree and die. Therefore, the monks of Xixing Temple named this demonized cherry tree the Xixing Demon.
After sealing the Seven-tailed Demon Fox, Yoshiki Sato returned to the Westbound Temple and changed his surname to the Westbound Temple. During this time, Yoshiki Sato gave birth to three more sons. Including his previous daughter, there were two boys and two girls in total. Master Westbound asked Master Hongfa about the demon, and Master Hongfa said,""I was indebted to you for sparing my life during the battle, so I will now do my best to help you get rid of the Western Yao. However, the demons that made up the demons hated the Xixing Temple Clan to the core, and the bloodline of the Xixing Temple Clan was the only way to defeat the demons of the West. You and your wife will give birth to another son. The son will be born under the demon tree in the west. When he is twenty years old, let him return to the demon tree in the west, and the demon tree will die.”
Although it was difficult for Yiqing of Xixing Temple, he had to do it. Therefore, the wife of Yiqing of Xixing Temple became pregnant. When she was about to give birth, Master Hongfa hung a faint mirror that could separate Yin and Yang on the Xixing Demon. The wife gave birth to the child, and the umbilical cord was not broken. Master Hong Fa performed the ritual, and the faint mirror cast a faint light on the wife. The glimmer flowed out of her lower body, passed through the umbilical cord, and flowed into the child's body. The Dharma Master took the opportunity to cut off the umbilical cord, so the glimmer remained in the baby's body.
The Faint Mirror was the most precious treasure in the world. Master Hong Fa was too burdened with it, and his spiritual power was exhausted. His body turned into a pile of meat paste and died. Yiqing of Xixing Temple was extremely sad. He ferried Master Hongfa's body for seven days before sending it back to his home for burial. In the next two months, Master Xi Xing sang and sang for Master Hong Fa all day long.
This girl was named You Youzi because she had the light from the You You Mirror. As long as she lived to the age of twenty, she would be able to be sent to the demons of the west and completely kill them. Yiqing of Xixing Temple was grieving over the death of Dharma Master Hongfa. This Dharma Master had never mentioned that he would die after doing this. At the same time, he was also grieving over the future of his younger daughter. She would always know that she was going to be used as a sacrifice to the demon tree.
This was the birth of You Youzi of Xixing Temple. In fact, when she was born, the method and time of her death had already been predetermined. Yiqing of Xixing Temple looked at the baby who was still crying. He didn't know what kind of vicious words she would use to curse him in the future. He didn't beg for his daughter's forgiveness. He secretly made a decision in his heart. When Youyou's death came, he would cut open her belly with a knife and go to Santu River to accompany this daughter who would hate him for the rest of her life.
However, this daughter of hers only knew how to rub her father's nose, laugh through her tears, and squint her eyes.
At this moment, tears streamed down Yiqing's face.
