Holy Ground of the Stars

Holy Ground of the Stars(星の聖地) is the 59th episode of Shaman King the anime series.

Summary
As pillars of light emerge from the ground by the power of the Great Spirit, Hao and his followers jump inside them and are pushed up in the sky. As everyone is surprised and shocked, Yoh and the others go after them. As Marco wonders what the lights are, Jeanne states that they guide you to the Holy Ground of the Stars, the place where the Great Spirit exists. Meanwhile, after Lyserg has apologized to Morphine, he states to Jeanne that he must go after them. As Jeanne gives Lyserg a new medium, Lyserg goes after everyone. Meanwhile, Hao and Opacho are looking for the Great Spirit. Meanwhile, Ren faces Mohamed Tabarsi and Hang Zang-Ching. As they are about to clash, Ryu shows up and makes it an even fight. As the four of them clash, Yoh is seen with Amidamaru as Silva and Kalim arrive. As Yoh wonders why they are here, they state that it is their duty to keep Hao away from the Great Spirit. Zinc and Nichrom mock Silva for being Hao's descendant. Lost, Manta thinks he sees Yoh and walks up to him, but finds out that he actually saw Hao. As Hao wonders, if he followed Yoh to the Holy Ground of the Stars, Hao states that Manta is powerless anyway.

As Yoh sympathizes with Silva to make him feel better, Silva explains that he feels that he has the responsibility to stop Hao because his blood runs through his veins. Then, Silva tells Yoh to go ahead while they have a fight between Patch Officiants. As Silva of the 10 Patch Officiants gets hit by Zinc of the 10 Patch Officiants, Hao and Opacho continue their journey while Manta follows them. As Hao tells Opacho not to mind Manta, he tells Manta that Yoh will become his strength anyway. As Manta states that Yoh will help everyone, Hao tells him that his followers are defeating "everyone" right now. Meanwhile as Ren and Ryu clash with Mohamed Tabarsi and Hang Zang-Ching, Peyote shows up to help them. Ren and Ryu then find out that Hao has given his followers more strength with Chō-Senjiryakketsu. As Ren mocks them, Ryu gets attacked by Peyote but Horohoro shows up just in time to dodge the attack. As Ren attacks Peyote, Bill Burton shows up and tackles Ren with his Over Soul. Then, Bill Burton's Over Soul explodes because he is not able to control his new power of Furyoku, shocking everyone. Meanwhile, as Hao is just telling Manta about the consequences when his followers cannot control the increased amount of Furyoku, Manta gets angry at Hao. Meanwhile, as Ryu attacks his opponents, he gets knocked back by Luchist, who has also shown up. Chocolove then shows up to block Hang Zang-Ching's next attack. As Peyote attacks everyone as well, Johann Faust VIII shows up to block the attack with his Big Over Soul. As all Shamans at the battlefield attack each other at the same time, Hao is seen telling Manta that if his followers cannot handle the strength, it is better for them not to exist anyway. Meanwhile, Yohmei and Anna are seen while Kino is performing a ritual with the 1080 Rosary Breads. As Anna asks how long it will take, Yohmei tells her that it will take a little longer and that they might be able to seal Hao once again with the 1080 Rosary Breads. Meanwhile, as Horohoro defeats Peyote, he gets knocked down by Brocken Meyer. As Luchist then attempts to kill Horohoro, Ren blocks the attack. Then, Peyote attacks again and knocks Ren down. As everyone is shocked that Ren is not standing up, Luchist states that the first one is down. As Bason and the others are shocked that blood is over Ren's body, then Horohoro screams Ren's name in horror and disbelief.
