Chapter 868 The Woman Who Was Born to Be a Vessel


    The sky had turned dark.


    At this time of the day, the snack streets of Tokyo would bustle with activity.


    There was a bustling crowd around them.


    The young woman appeared particrly happy the entire way here.


    However, Ye Fan had a nagging feeling that Suzumiya Eigetsu was hiding something from him.


    Suzumiya Eigetsu suddenly felt dizzy again when they got back to the hotel. She staggered and almost


    fell.


    It wasn''t the first time Ye Fan saw her like this.


    Ye Fan ignored it previously and thought Suzumiya Eigetsu was just tired from having too much fun.


    But this time, Ye Fan could suddenly sense an unusual power in Suzumiya Eigetsu when he helped her


    up.


    It felt as though there was the seal inside Suzumiya Eigetsu that was about to break and unleash its


    energy.


    This time round, Suzumiya Eigetsu couldn''t help whimpering in pain before passing out in Ye Fan''s


    arms.


    "Eigetsu-chan. Eigetsu-chan?" shouted Ye Fan worriedly.


    He hurriedly ced Suzumiya Eigetsu on the bed and examined her.


    The moon was bright and wless.


    It hung in the sky like a huge te.


    Its soft glow flowed into the room like water and scattered in through the window.


    Meanwhile, Ye Fan noticed a crescent vaguely appearing on Suzumiya Eigetsu''s forehead.


    In fact, if he looked carefully, he would have noticed that the crescent actually had some hidden runes


    engraved on it.


    "This is a... spirit seal?"


    Ye Fan was shocked to see it.


    It was mentioned in the Book of Celestial Cloud that there was a kind of ninjitsu skill called spirit seal.


    It could retain the consciousness of a spirit by sealing it and transforming it into a spirit seed.


    Some ninjas transformed their souls into spirit seeds and nted themselves into someone else''s


    body, and relied on their host''s soul to mature.


    After maturing, they would obliterate the host''s consciousness, possess its body, and control it.


    In other words, they were like parasitical seeds.


    In the past, Ye Fan thought that it was merely chronicled in the Book of Celestial Cloud.


    Even if such skills existed before, they were probably lost in time by now.


    But he unexpectedly spotted signs of this happening on Suzumiya Eigetsu.


    But Suzumiya Eigetsu was Mochizuki Kawa''s disciple. In Japan, who would have the guts to nt a


    spirit seed in Mochizuki Kawa''s disciple?


    But now was not the time for Ye Fan to ponder since he realized the spirit that was sealed in Suzumiya


    Eigetsu had already gotten increasingly stronger.


    If it wasn''t eradicated in time, her body would get taken over by the spirit within the spirit seal.


    Then Suzumiya Eigetsu''s consciousness would disappear for good.


    So Ye Fan didn''t hesitate any longer and ced his finger on Suzumiya Eigetsu''s forehead.


    An invisible power transferred from Ye Fan''s finger into Suzumiya Eigetsu''s head.


    WOOOONG!


    But an invisible force kept biting back as Ye Fan attempted to eradicate the spirit seal.

    The aftershock made Ye Fan retreat by several steps.


    Ye Fan''s face grew grim.


    "This...this strength is very powerful. The spirit nted within Eigetsu-chan must have been an


    unsurpassable martial arts expert when he was alive."


    There was a grave look on Ye Fan''s face.


    Suzumiya Eigetsu finally regained consciousness a few hourster.


    In the room, dim light lit up the room.


    The moment Suzumiya Eigetsu opened her eyes, she saw a skinny silhouette standing by her bed.


    "Master, where am I?" asked Suzumiya Eigetsu softly.


    Ye Fan didn''t answer. Instead, he looked down at her and said calmly, "You know about the spirit seal


    in your body, don''t you?"


    "I..." Suzumiya Eigetsu hung her head.


    "So someone did tell you about it. Let me remind you that it is about to break out of its seal. If nothing is


    done to it, it will upy your body for one more month, then your consciousness will disappear. In


    other words, you will cease to exist in a month."


    Ye Fan exined the situation to Suzumiya Eigetsu expressionlessly.


    A young woman''s life was about toe to an end in a month.


    How very cruel.


    However, she had the right to know the truth.


    Suzumiya Eigetsu remained silent.


    Ye Fan frowned.


    "Aren''t you going to say something? If you tell me who nted the spirit seed, I might be able to save


    you."


    He needed to know the culprit in order to solve this problem.


    Ye Fan was incapable of helping her without knowing the details.


    If Suzumiya Eigetsu told him who it was, Ye Fan might be able to do something about it and save her.


    Ye Fan didn''t want this innocent girl to die.


    However, Suzumiya Eigetsu shook her head when she heard what Ye Fan said.


    "Master, it''s useless. I was born to be a vessel. I exist solely to be a host for


    Tsukuyomi Tenshin."


    What?


    Ye Fan was instantly shocked.


    "Tsukuyomi Tenshin? Do you mean that Tsukuyomi Tenshin''s spirit resides you?" Ye Fan''s pupils


    constricted in shock as a wave of emotion flooded his heart.


    It never dawned on him that Tsukuyomi Tenshin''s spirit could be sealed inside this young woman''s


    body.


    Tsukuyomi Tenshin was Japan''s Moon Goddess.


    Since time immemorial, Tsukuyomi Tenshin existed only in legends.


    Legend had it that Tsukuyomi Tenshin protected Japan for years and was an extraordinarily powerful


    goddess whom citizens believed in.


    She held the same status as Nuwa, a Chinese goddess.


    Even though they were remembered as gods in history, they were humans in reality.


    Some people were able to make immense contributions after attaining power. Then people would


    revere them as gods in memory of their charity.


    Like the three sovereigns and five emperors in China''s history, Buddha in the Buddhist tales, and even


    the God of War, Ye Qing-Tian.


    They weren''t mere illusions. Instead, they were deified by the people through the time.


    There were no gods on earth. They merely came to be because many people believed in them.


    "Yup." Suzumiya Eigetsu nodded. "Master told me that the extraordinarily powerful Tsukuyomi Tenshin


    once protected our people, but when her time was up, she used the spirit seal technique to seal her


    soul. After she died, a suitable vessel had to be found so that she could be reborn. And I am the


    chosen vessel. My older sister said that it is mine and our family''s honor to be selected. She also told


    me that I would soar to Japan''s pinnacle with the Moon Goddess and enjoy utter glory. But I know


    everyone''s just consoling me. The moment the seal breaks, the goddess will be reborn, and I will be no


    more."
