As they have reached the summit of Mount Hakurei, Miroku and Sango are attacked by Kagura in a shaft. After Kagura defeats Sango by using the Wind Gust against her Hiraikotsu, Miroku uses Wind Tunnel to vacuum the demons, even enduring the poison of the Saimyōshō. Meanwhile, Jakotsu gives Suikotsu's shard of the Shikon Jewel to Bankotsu, who happily thanks him. InuYasha decides to enter the barrier in order to find Miroku and Sango, but finds himself in trouble when confronted by Renkotsu. InuYasha is purified by the barrier reverting himself to human form, while Miroku and Sango are also both purified by the barrier being able to escape outside the mountain.
