Zhong Gui: "..."
Reverse-haired Jieluo: "Little brother? What are you thinking about?"
"I'm wondering how you little monsters dare to defy Yakumo Yukari~"
As soon as Zhong Gui finished speaking, countless demonic forces pressed down on him from all directions.
"Human, it seems you're going to die a little earlier," a minotaur said, exhaling hot breath from its nostrils.
Zhong Gui saw the blood and vitality of a human in him; it seemed this ox was no longer eating grass but eating people.
Zhong Gui didn't want to pay them any more attention. He came to see Gensokyo, not to see this bunch of annoying people.
"Women? I've even fought an empress!"
Then Zhong Gui's eyes narrowed, "Kneel down!"
Zhong Gui's voice wasn't loud, but it was as if the world had received a command. All the demons felt as if their hearts had been gripped by a giant hand, and an indescribable power was born between heaven and earth.
boom--!
click!
With a series of crisp cracking sounds, all the monsters, regardless of their strength, had their knees crushed and broken by the force of gravity, causing them to kneel on the ground and roar in pain.
"Although I was originally human, and still consider myself human, I really don't pamper humans like the old man did. But, you know, I am human after all, and I haven't completely abandoned my principles yet~"
Click~click~
Two more crisp sounds rang out, and all the monsters collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
"What's this!"
It was a roaring sound, but it sounded like a mosquito buzzing.
The entire world seemed to be imprisoned.
"I do know why Yukari Yakumo gave up on you, but what can I do if I don't want to tell you?"
"me……"
"You can still speak?"
boom--! ! !
Click~ Click~ Click~
Most of the monsters were crushed into a pile of minced meat, without a single small piece, so bad that they couldn't be pieced back together.
A small number of exceptionally gifted individuals survived even when reduced to the thickness of a sheet of paper, such as the Reverse-Haired Jie Luo, whose original form, the comb, is not here.
Now she has lost all her beauty and looks like a monster made of hair, lying flat on the ground.
The red eyes that could still be faintly seen revealed only endless fear and submission.
"Spare...me..."
"Tsk tsk~" Zhong Gui reached out and opened up a space to take out a comb.
"No...no! No—!"
With a gentle toss, the comb was instantly crushed into powder the moment it left Zhong Gui's hand, and the beautiful monster died completely.
When Zhong Gui turned to leave, the surrounding area had turned into soil harder than mountain rocks.
"Want revenge? Then become stronger!"
Hakurei Shrine, Torii gate.
The place was now deserted; the current shrine maiden, Reimu Hakurei, was no longer there, but a young girl sat atop the torii gate.
Hakurei Shrine is located on the second peak of Gensokyo, second only to Youkai Mountain, and offers a panoramic view of the entire Gensokyo.
Yukari Yakumo sat on the torii gate, quietly watching the entire Gensokyo. Even though there had been many battles, big and small, in the past few days, and the Gensokyo was filled with the smoke of war, the beauty of the past could still be seen.
"~ Reluctant to part with her?" Zhong Gui emerged from the void, stopped Yakumo Yukari from bowing, and then sat down next to her.
"Hehe, there's nothing to be reluctant about. It's just that leaving a home I've lived in for so long is bound to be a little sad."
Zhong Gui nodded. Many people, even after they have become successful, still have a strange feeling when they see their former "thatched hut".
Humans are nostalgic yet yearn for the new, so people's lives are basically a repetition of this process.
"You killed those monsters?" Yakumo Yukari looked at the place where Zhong Gui had just appeared, where there was still a strong demonic aura.
"They killed them, but not all of them."
When Zhong Gui saw the reversed hair knot, he suddenly had an idea, but he didn't know if it could be realized.
Yakumo Yukari didn't care what Zhong Gui wanted to do; no matter how much trouble she caused, nothing would go wrong.
She gazed quietly at this world, feeling a pang of reluctance to leave.
Zhong Gui remained silent. Is this what it feels like to sit atop the Hakurei Shrine and look at Gensokyo?
As expected, we can't abandon Gensokyo (okay?).
Where Zhong Gui left, wisps of black mist began to rise from the ground, intertwining and merging to form even larger black mist.
"Become stronger...take revenge...become stronger..."
Just then, a demon wolf with a faint trace of demonic energy passed by. A large cloud of black energy seemed to sense something and pounced on it.
"Ouch!!!"
With a mournful cry, nothing was left.
The black aura seemed to have grown slightly larger, almost imperceptibly.
"Eat...eat...eat...get stronger..."
In an instant, the surrounding trees and soil began to suffer... Kill...

Chapter 212 The Strongest Being in Gensokyo—It's Me!
When Zhong Gui saw the reverse-haired Jie Luo, he was reminded of "Inuyasha".
There's a monster there named Naraku.
Naraku is a collection of demons created using the technique of "poisoning," and his predecessor was Onigumo, a ruthless human bandit.
After failing to seize the position of bandit leader from Rasetsu Kansuke and being seriously injured by Kansuke with explosives, he was thrown off a cliff.
After being saved by the priestess Kikyo, he loved Kikyo so much that he offered his soul to the demons and merged with them, thus giving birth to him.
The yokai associated with cherry blossoms can merge, or rather, their essence can merge to form a new yokai.
It retains the original ideological characteristics while also incorporating new ideas and consciousness.
Zhong Gui wanted to conduct an experiment: could Gensokyo itself, being the greatest anomaly, become a youkai?
According to the ideology of the Cherry Blossom Country, everything can be a demon.
Therefore, theoretically, youkai could also exist in Gensokyo.
However, theory is theory; it lacks the foundation for the emergence of consciousness. In more fantastical terms, it lacks spiritual energy, and the laws of nature do not allow it.
Zhong Gui had an idea: to let a monster devour Gensokyo, then purify the monster to remove its impurities, and finally let it take human form.
Does this mean that Gensokyo itself was reborn through borrowing a body?
437 Regardless of whether it counts or not, Zhong Gui decided to give it a try.
As for why they didn't just move Gensokyo out of there...
Zhong Gui: "Don't ask, the answer is I don't want to do it!"
Are you kidding me? We're already in Gensokyo, how can we cause an incident?!
Let's call this "Devouring Incident," with the goal of destroying Gensokyo!
What's the fastest way for a monster to cultivate? The answer is: devour!
Devour the stronger, devour every bit of energy!
The drawback is also obvious: you don't know if you'll still be yourself if you continue down this path.
But for a newly born hybrid monster, power is all that matters; nothing else matters, since it doesn't have a primary consciousness anyway.
The black aura devoured the wolf demon, but it felt its power was insufficient, so it instinctively began to devour everything around it.
Gensokyo is special; every place there is a tangled state between common sense and the uncommon sense, and even a blade of grass has a trace of demonic power.
The demons were crushed to death by Zhong Gui's sheer gravity, their deaths extremely painful. Their hatred was intertwined, and they would not give up any of their strength in order to seek revenge.
Gensokyo is now like an unguarded little girl, with dark energy devouring it without any restraint, as if there is not the slightest obstruction (aeeh).
"..."
Sitting on the torii gate, Yukari Yakumo could see that a corner of the Magic Forest had turned completely black. In the blink of an eye, the black aura had spread to a distance of no less than a thousand meters and had now reached the edge of the Human Village.
The human village is unimportant, because there is nothing there now. Yakumo Yukari threw the people and houses out of Gensokyo, so the dark aura arrived at the farmland without any obstruction.
The Magic Forest is located in the south-central part of Gensokyo. To the northeast, from east to west, are the Human Village, the farmland outside the Human Village, the Misty Lake to the northwest of the farmland, and the Scarlet Devil Mansion in the middle of the Misty Lake.
The black mist spread directly across the human village and farmland, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived at the Lake of Mist.
