Malicious Spirit Contract

This technique allows a person to summon spirits from the afterlife, and has formed the very basis for the fujutsu of the present day. In order to be able to execute it, the fusha must have been branded with the Heigo, a seal of blood imbued with spiritual chakra, on the palm of their dominant hand. Once this has been done, the user can channel chakra through this seal while reciting an incantation in the Shintai language, which results in a portal being opened between the afterlife and the mortal world through which a spirit is forced to migrate. This incantation is somewhat lengthy, and a novice fusha must recite it slowly so as to avoid garbling the words. Experienced fusha, however, can open this portal without the need of incantations. In fact, kan'nagi that are as skilled as Shiko need only to think about opening this portal for it to become reality, a testament to his power.
