After obtaining divine oracles from both the Inari God and Amaterasu Ōmikami, the people at Izumo Taisha removed their obstruction, allowing Chen Yu to enter the true Yomotsu Hirasaka.
The reason it's called the true Yomotsu Hirasaka is that during the Showa period, a sign was erected at a tourist spot here, designating a particular real-world location as the site of Yomotsu Hirasaka.
However, that was merely the imagination of mortals and some necessary concealment. The true Yomotsu Hirasaka has never existed in the mortal world.
Entering through the passage opened by Izumo Taisha, after truly entering Yomotsu Hirasaka, Chen Yu finally witnessed what this renowned place in Japanese mythology truly looked like.
It appeared to be a desolate valley, a barren gorge dotted with black stones as if scorched by fire, filled with the smell of sulfur.
The sky was overcast with thick clouds. Although it should be daytime, there was no sun, making the scene appear quite gloomy.
