292 The Entire Truth! (1/2)

In the past, one had to choose a suitable mountain spot with great feng shui if they wanted to create a typical formation. Formations were extraordinary, and they exhibited mysterious effects.

Then came the era of recuperation of reiki, where formations could be drawn anywhere, be it on a piece of paper or a piece of wood, basically anything could be used as a material to draw a formation. As long as the formation was perfectly drawn out, and with the help of a Spiritual Stone to trigger the reiki from the heavens and earth, the formation would finally be complete.

Although it was currently the era with weak reiki, the Human Body Tactical Formation itself was unique all along. It could be formed even on a flat ground, and coincidentally, the place where Sakagami Village was holding the ritual was indeed a spacious flat land.

”Shigeru-sama, allow your shikigami to disconnect the key points on Otome Sakagami's formation.”

Sei Shigeru was a little stunned by Kimura Kazuki's words. How could you just expose the plan out loud, wouldn't Otome Sakagami hear it as well? However in the next second, he realized that not a single soul at the scene reacted to the words. While he was still in a state of shock, he knew it must be one of the opponent's strategies.

He did not say a word, but only nodded slightly. Kimura Kazuki acknowledged his nod, and he too did not say more. Sei Shigeru should know what to do.

Otome Sakagami was still in the process of drawing the formation. She was like an art student painting an outdoor scenery. All Sei Shigeru had to do was to order his shikigami to silently sabotage the unfinished formation and destroy it.

The complicated patterns were the basics of a formation, even the Human Body Tactical Formation was no exception. The slightest difference in the patterns would render the formation useless. This was also the reason why the big companies in the past that invented the complicated formations decided to simplify them for the future generations.

Only simple, convenient, and effective formations could be drawn the quickest. It saved time and lessened the burden on the formation master.

Kimura Kazuki wanted to destroy the patterns. In short, he wanted to destroy the flowing blood on the ground as it would easily ruin the whole formation. With this plan in mind, Kimura Kazuki did not say anything else. He continued listening to Otome Sakagami while she talked about the grudge and hate between her and Sakanoue no Tamuramaro.

”Unfortunately, on the day of his death, Sakanoue still failed to figure out a way to achieve immortality.” Otome Sakagami's voice echoed through the spacious place. The people in the area were listening to her carefully and as they did, they felt as if they had gone back in time to more than 1,000 years ago, watching memories of their ancestors fighting each other to achieve immortality.

However, after a change of thought, did he himself not cultivate to achieve the path of immortality as well?

If others could not see through it, then how could he?

”I thought that as long as I exhausted Sakanoue to death, I could be free.” When she said this, Otome Sakagami showed a pitiful smile. ”Never would I have thought that Sakanoue would seal me up before he died.”

The reason for sealing her was simple, Sakanoue no Tamuramaro knew he could not figure out a way. Although it was a pity, he accepted death frankly given that he was a soldier. Keeping Otome Sakagami sealed was to allow his descendants to continue the research on immorality.
