Chapter 10 has been recorded
Primary activity location: Unknown
Thinking of this place, the Hakurei Shrine, before the time travel, Chen Yi naturally knew that the book "The Origin of Gensokyo" was indeed passed down from the Hakurei family
Hmm, this book is useless, throw it away. This one isn't useful either, throw it away? Huh! This book is a bit strange, wow! Spring X map, oh my! Throw it far away. Hmm? A map? Useless! ... Throw it away ...! ... Wait a minute! A map!?
Suddenly, an alarm sounded outside the study, "Quick, inform everyone, the barrier has been breached, a monster has intruded!"
Aren't you afraid? You should know that I am a monster
Ability: Unknown, currently named the Power of the Ghost God
Features: White long hair, dark red eyes, possesses a deep understanding of humans, shows no aggressive tendencies towards non-hostile humans, other aspects unknown
Chen Yi quickly unfolded the map. This map was much more detailed than the one Chen Yi had initially seized, not only marking the areas occupied by humans but also clearly indicating the locations of the monsters' activities.
New Species of Monster: Chen Yi
With no other choice, Chen Yi could only opt for a perilous path, venturing into the human city to gather information. Since he needed to inquire, he decided to disguise himself, transforming his attire into a hooded robe, concealing his hair, and wrapping his eyes with cloth strips. With the dual perception of fluctuating power and mental energy, Chen Yi was not afraid of being unable to see.
Coping Strategy: When encountering this monster, try to avoid hostility and express goodwill towards it. Exercise caution during combat, as the opponent's strength possesses significant destructive and corrosive power.
Ghost Slash
With all his might, Chen Yi infused the power of the demon god into his weapon. The blade of his sword carried an incredibly dense power of the demon god, resembling a purple-black demon slayer that lashed out like a whip, forcefully creating a large hole in the barrier before him. The residual power of the demon god on the barrier emitted a crackling sound. It is important to note that the power of the demon god is not only characterized by its immense destructive capability, but its overwhelmingly corrosive properties are also not to be overlooked
Shadow of the Fallen! Phantom Step!
Ding! Humanity has obtained part of the host's information
His face has turned completely dark, Chen Yi's face has turned thoroughly black
The youkai is truly a peculiar creature. The young girl appeared much more relaxed
Seeing the girl in front of him, Chen Yi felt somewhat disappointed (in a morbid way), "As for humans, I understand them quite well, to the point that my understanding of youkai has diminished significantly..."
Ah! Have I been discovered? When? Chen Yi recalled that he had been so engrossed in flipping through the book just now that he hadn't paid much attention to his surroundings. Turning around, he saw a petite girl holding a pen and paper, looking at him. Although her face still bore a hint of panic, the fact that she was able to speak indicated her courage.
"Ah, A Li girl, do you not know that this is very dangerous?" Chen Yi made a fierce expression.
After parting ways with the Haitian family, Chen Yi was in high spirits. Although this infiltration was not perfect due to being discovered, the gains were sufficient to make up for it. After breaking away from the Haitian family, Chen Yi not only did not slow down but instead increased his speed once again, rushing towards the outskirts of the city
Controlling the power of the spirits, a silent and invisible hole was eroded into the protective barrier surrounding the Haya family. After easily infiltrating, the search for useful materials began. After bypassing numerous guards, Chen Yi finally found a room filled with books. Quietly entering through the window, Chen Yi removed his disguise. Although he could sense the surrounding scene and even perceive some very hidden things while covering his eyes, he could see nothing at all. This could be considered a drawback of wave perception.
As Chen Yi ran, his figure became increasingly ethereal. When the guards' weapons struck his body, they passed right through him. Some spells cast by the magical monks were also obstructed by the dark veil that enveloped Chen Yi.
As spring arrives, Chen Yi continues to search for Yukari Yakumo. However, finding Yukari, who possesses the ability to manipulate gaps, is exceedingly difficult. Although he knows that the chances of finding Yukari are greater in the current Gensokyo, he does not know where Gensokyo is.
Only after the barrier was eroded to the point of being unable to maintain its form and collapsed did the residual power of the spirits dissipate into the air after losing its target
Knowing that time was running short, the young girl pressed Chen Yi for answers, saying: "I kindly ask the esteemed demon lord to inform me of your name and race before you depart."
Oh, Lord! You said it would be better if you forgot me! ... I have already forgotten you, you know...
Ding! While the host demonstrates powerful abilities to humanity, it also inadvertently reveals its own whereabouts, and the host will once again face human suppression
This is it! After searching for so long, Chen Yi had almost lost hope of finding information about Gensokyo. With this map in hand, if he were to search one by one for the places where youkai gather, he would surely be able to find Gensokyo. He put away the map, nodded in satisfaction, and prepared to jump out of the window again.
Human friendliness: Unknown
After Chen Yi broke through the barrier, the residual power of the ghostly deity lost Chen Yi's control. The already extremely violent power of the ghostly deity became even more frenzied after losing control. The originally human-sized void in the barrier began to expand at a visibly rapid pace due to the erosion of the ghostly deity's power
This! This! How is this possible! This is a barrier empowered by several powerful barrier masters! It was broken just like that!" said a sorcerer monk in disbelief
The young girl gazed at the divine power dissipating into the air, continuing to document it. On the paper in her hand, it was written:
Since it has been discovered, there is no need to hide anymore; one can simply break out directly. Because of the girl from earlier, Chen Yi also does not wish to engage in slaughter here
When covering his eyes, Chen Yi felt a deep sense of loss, as it was merely an ordinary strip of cloth rather than a curse from the Egg of Sargeras that obscured his vision
Facing a bookshelf filled with books, Chen Yi began to search for materials related to Gensokyo. He picked up a book titled "An Introduction to Barrier Creation" and glanced at it, but it was useless! He tossed it aside. Then, Chen Yi threw aside all the other useless books, including "How to Identify Youkai," "A Complete Guide to Youkai Food," "Introduction to Poison Preparation," and "Introduction to Onmyoudou."
Inquiring about information, of course, the more powerful the place, the more comprehensive the information. This is Chen Yi's perspective, although the risk of being discovered has increased significantly, one seeks wealth and honor amidst danger.
Holding a broken stick, stumbling every three steps and bumping into things every five steps, a blind man easily blended into the town, which even the city guards could not bear to stop. In the midst of the discussions among the townspeople in the language of the library town, Chen Yi found the largest family in this town—the Bai Tian family
Ding! The host's reputation among humans has greatly increased (negative).
It seems to be an Eastern name, along with a race, ghostly deities? Is it a ghost? Or a newly emerged monster? The girl said while writing something on the paper, and, hmm! There is also a hand-drawn illustration by Chen Yi attached to the paper.
Chen Yi suddenly felt a sense of being understood; how wonderful it would be if others felt the same way.
Sigh? It seems that the girl named A Li, called out by Chen Yi, was surprised. The girl did not even pay attention to Chen Yi's intimidation, asking, "Lord Yokai, do you understand humans well?"
He was discovered! Chen Yi was startled! He prepared to continue escaping through the window.
Withdrawing the Ghost Shadow Step, I exhaled. The "Asteroid" within my soul core, representing the power of the ghostly deity, had also dimmed considerably. Maintaining the Ghost Shadow Step consumed a significant amount of energy. Although my recovery speed was based on a percentage, the current percentage was indeed rather low (Ah, youth! The recovery rate based on percentage is incredibly extraordinary!). The recovery of the ghostly deity's power was not particularly fast either. After downing a bottle of blue potion, it instantly transformed into ghostly deity power, replenishing the consumption of Chen Yi, and the "Asteroid" representing the ghostly deity's power regained its luster. However, the current percentage was still rather low (Ah, youth! The recovery rate based on percentage is incredibly extraordinary!). The recovery of the ghostly deity's power was not particularly fast either. After downing a bottle of blue potion, it instantly transformed into ghostly deity power, replenishing the consumption of Chen Yi, and the "Asteroid" representing the ghostly deity's power regained its luster.
The long-absent Supreme Deity once again revealed its presence to Chen Yi
A purple shadow flashed past Chen Yi's back, transforming into a black curtain that began to swirl around his body. Then, a faint blue ghostly figure illuminated from behind Chen Yi, prompting him to rush outward, disregarding the guards blocking his path.
As Chen Yi rushed to the door, he saw the barrier before him. It was evident that the Bai Tian family had learned of Chen Yi's intrusion, reinforced the barrier, and intended to trap him.
"Excuse me, great monster, could you please tell me your race?" A suddenly weak voice of a young girl came through.
The harsh sound of crackling continued to ring out, leaving the guards of the Haya family and the magical monk in utter shock as they watched the barrier being eroded. The young girl, however, paid no attention to the changes in the barrier and continued to document the power that Chen Yi had used when he left the Haya family.
Chanyi turned his head upon seeing the girl at the window, her face filled with hope, and he did not wish to refuse. "My name is Chanyi, as for my race..." Chanyi pondered for a moment, "I suppose my race is... a demon god. Currently, I am the only one belonging to this race..."
Danger Level: High
Damn it, why can't I find it! Completely absorbed in searching through the books, Chen Yi did not notice that a young girl appeared at the door, looking at him in astonishment as he focused on flipping through the pages, covering her mouth to stifle a gasp.
A name that is quite familiar, isn't it
The young girl soon calmed down, observing Chen Yi while taking out a pen and paper from somewhere to jot down notes.
As he continued to search, Chen Yi still could not find any information about Gensokyo. Could it be that there is none? That seems impossible, Chen Yi thought. Well, let's keep looking.
Although there were very few people in Japan at that time, and a city would not have many inhabitants, if one or two perverts were to stop Chen Yi, it would be a loss. In the state of Ghost Shadow Step, Chen Yi was not afraid of bumping into anyone; he could pass through people and walls as if they were not there. The shortest distance between two points is a straight line, and ultimately, Chen Yi managed to escape the city before chaos ensued.
The young girl smiled gently and said, "The youkai has shown no malice from the very beginning."
