A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

Unlike simple physical regeneration, poisoning requires the specific elimination of the cause of the poison, and the use of a more difficult reversal technique.

Watching Cheng Jinci gradually sinking to the bottom of the sea, Lu Ziyun couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that it is too late to detoxify... My immortality will also end... I am very happy to meet an opponent like you--"

However, just as he was thinking this, Cheng Jinci suddenly opened his eyes and punched him.

"?!"

Lu Ziyun was stunned by the punch.

"How is it possible——This guy's reversal technique is fully automatic!! Could it be that the specific elimination of poison can also be performed automatically in an unconscious state!?"

the other side.

Burn marks began to appear on Hyōkinji's body.

"The temperature of the sea water has risen! It must be because of his cursed power!!"

"Before this round of immortality ends, I can no longer deploy my domain. But after immortality ends, I will be unable to deploy my domain in an environment of electric shock and overheated water... There are only 5 seconds left, it seems I should surface..."

But thinking of this, Cheng Jinci gave up this plan the next moment.

"no!!"

"Attack! Attack! Attack again!!"

He knew that he must not reveal his weakness to Lu Ziyun.

"Get up there!"

bang bang bang-

Rather than exposing his own flaws, it is better to force Lu Ziyun to leave the sea on his own initiative.

"Yes!!"

But Lu Ziyun showed no sign of weakness. She hugged Cheng Jinci tightly and a violent electric current burst out from her body.

boom--

There were bursts of water on the sea surface at once.

"scales!"

ashore.

The panda, which had become much smaller, looked at the scene in front of it nervously.

The sea water fell like a curtain of rain.

A broken hand fell onto the shore in front of him along with the sea water.

"!!"

This startled the panda slightly.

the other side.

Lu Ziyun climbed to the shore in a panic.

“Ha…hahaha…”

He was breathing heavily.

"My cursed energy is completely exhausted... But fortunately, that guy has..."

"..."

"Tsk..."

Just when he thought that Cheng Jinci was dead again, he found a shadow standing in front of him.

boom--

The next moment, the fist hit Lu Ziyunyi's face mercilessly.

"what!"

Although Cheng Jinci lost an arm, he still looked energetic.

Lu Ziyun suppressed the leakage of the curse power, and then released it all at once. Before the curse power was transmitted to the sea water, it was converted into heat energy, causing a steam explosion.

"Hehe, why is this happening? Logically you should have been blown into pieces." Lu Ziyun asked the man in front of him in confusion as he lay on the ground.

"I understand that you definitely don't want me to open my domain again." Hyōjinji responded calmly, "After all, we're about to enter the transformation. If the bomb doesn't kill me... so just in case, you plan to at least get rid of my hand. So that I... can't make any more seals."

"So I just decided to cut off my own arm!!"

"Sacrifice the local situation for the overall situation!"

"The moment he abandoned his arm, he formed a new 'bind' and transferred the cursed energy that was originally used to protect his left arm to other parts, resisting the power of the explosion..."

"Just give me a quick death." Lu Ziyun knew he had lost and had no reason to blame when he heard that, so he said calmly.

"I won't kill you. If I kill you, 100 points will be gone." Cheng Jinci said as a matter of course, then sat down on the ground.

"...So that's what happened." Lu Ziyun was speechless.

"First of all, I don't think I beat you." Cheng Jinci explained calmly, "Lu Ziyun, you didn't use the spell, right?"

"!!" Lu Ziyun was slightly surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that someone would see through him.

"I didn't expect that you could fight so well just by relying on the characteristics and operation of cursed power." Hyūga Kinji exclaimed.

"How did you know?" Lu Ziyun asked.

"What!? Is this really the case? I was just guessing!" Cheng Jinci was slightly stunned.

"My technique can only be used once," Lu Ziyun explained why he did not use the technique, "I will never use it unless I am against Sukuna."

"...Let's make a deal. Lu Ziyun." Cheng Jinci thought of something when he heard it and said.

···········
"scales!!"

A moment later, the panda came over here shouting.

"It's a panda?" Cheng Jinci stood up and praised the panda's appearance, "Wow, it has become cute. You came at the right time. This guy is our partner now."

As he spoke, he pointed at Lu Ziyunyi behind him.

"What!?"

The panda was slightly surprised when he heard this.

"I'm not helping you for free." Lu Ziyun said lightly.

"I know, you are such a nag." Cheng Jinci laughed.

"???" The panda was confused, "What on earth is going on?"

"Let him fight Sukuna. That's what he wants," Hyōkinji explained.

"What!?" The panda was even more surprised when he heard this.

"Is it okay?" asked Cheng Jinci.

"This is a huge problem!" the panda retorted in surprise.

"Shouldn't the juniors obey the orders of the seniors absolutely? Also, I have to go somewhere, you wait here."

Having said that, Cheng Jinci prepared to leave on his own.

"I don't want to!! This is too scary!! Don't leave me alone with him!!" the panda said in panic.

"Sukuna has become... a junior?" When Lu Ziyun heard the tone of Hyo Jinci, he was a little confused about what was going on and was extremely puzzled.

···········
"...Why are you back?"

After the defeat, Richard, who was sitting under the Ferris wheel to rest, looked at Hyō Kinji walking towards him and asked in confusion.

"What happened to your arm?"

"Don't worry, it will recover later."

Hyō Kinji smiled indifferently.

"I can recover...what are you doing back?"

"There's something I forgot to ask you."

"…If you're here to give me a lecture on life, I suggest you forget it. I learned all my life rules from comics."

"...But, after venting all your emotions, don't you feel better?" Instead of answering, Cheng Jinci asked calmly.

“……”Richard was silent.

Hyōjinji continued, "Not everything can be answered simply by reasoning."

"The art of killing is the way to save people... Is that what you mean?"

"What's your name?" Cheng Jinci did not answer, but asked another question.

"What is that?" Richard was confused.

"It's the comic you drew." Cheng Jinci said as a matter of course, "Tell me. I'll buy it and read it." "..."

Richard was silent for a while and said.

"I don't know what made you misunderstand me. I'm still a newcomer. I haven't published any single book yet."

"Are there any award-winning works?" Cheng Jinci asked somewhat embarrassedly.

"not yet."

"This is unreasonable!!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jinci kicked him.

“It hurts!!”

Richard complained, "What are you doing?"

"Just a newcomer!! Draw for me!! The fight is over, just treat it as if you have died once, and draw as hard as you can!!"

"I didn't expect you to speak so philosophically!!"

"scales!!"

Just as the two were arguing, Nishimiya Tao fell from the sky and shouted.

“Nishimiya!?”

Cheng Jinci looked at the girl who came with some confusion.

"Oh!? Magical girl?" Rico, who was standing nearby, was extremely surprised when he saw the girl falling from the sky.

"Sorry, I'll be straight to the point! Did you get 100 points!?" Nishimiya Momo asked directly.

"Yes, I've got it." Cheng Jinci nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Nishimiya Tao explained the four rules they were going to add in order to achieve their goal.

1. Points can be transferred.

2. Spend 100 points to arrange for a substitute to escape death and return to the game.

3. Remove the barrier from blocking the signal.

4. Can enter and exit the barrier.

"I hope we can postpone the order of establishing the means of communication within the barrier at 3." Nishimiya Tao said.

"Ah? Isn't that required before level 4?" Kinji asked suspiciously, "There are also tough guys in Tokyo's second barrier?"

"Maki can enter and exit the barrier freely. If she cooperates with Miss Ming's brother, problem 3 will be solved." Nishimiya Momo explained.

"Wait a minute, why can the Zen temple enter and exit the barrier?" Cheng Jinci asked puzzledly.

"That's because...she became that..."

"What did it become?"

"monster."

···········
11 month 14 day.

15:05 Sakurajima barrier.

"You've changed, Maki."

"I don't want you to say that. Xianji."

"You have become stronger, but I have only fallen." Kamo Kenji said indifferently, "The Kamo family has appointed someone else as the head of the family, and I, a bastard, was naturally driven out."

"I think the current look is more suitable." Zenin Maki laughed and teased, "Especially the hairstyle. The previous one was too gloomy."

"Hmph, same to you."

Kamo Kenji snorted coldly.

"That attack just now has already eliminated most of the offensive sorcerers and cursed spirits. Once you are out of the barrier and meet up with Yuta, head to the next barrier as soon as possible."

"That guy also helped me deal with some personal matters. Is that okay?" Zenin Maki asked, "Aren't those siblings famous for being good at scheming?"

"I heard that they are doing risk diversification and advance investment." explained Kenji Kamo.

"What the hell?" Zenin Maki said she didn't understand at all.

At this moment, they were both stunned almost at the same time.

"Hi! I'm Xiao Jin! A game of mutual slaughter called Death and Rebirth is being held in this barrier! Once you step into it, you will also become a player!"

"Do you still want to enter the barrier now!?"

"Long-winded."

The ferocious figure that arrived said angrily.

"I'm going to kill you!"

"Tsk."

What the two people below felt was the unknown cursed spirit that was descending.

···········
June 11, 3:23.

Kyoto, Kamo Mune family residence.

After the Kamo Incident, the Kamo family fell into silence.

"I'm back!!"

"Is anyone home?!"

"Shino!! That's great!! Please help me contact the principal of Rakuganji!! And the Gojo family and the Zenin family!!"

After returning home, Kenji Kamo shouted to the figure that should have been familiar.

"Boy, where did you come from?" But the answer I received was this.

"What?" Kamo Kenji realized something was wrong when he heard this.

"That guy Xuanji, ever since he became the captain of the garrison, the barrier has become full of loopholes." The hunchbacked old man said to himself.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Shino? The captain of the garrison is Hei Nanchi." Kamo Kenki's eyes became serious, "Sorry, I don't have time to joke with you now. Don't say you forgot what the next head of the family looks like."

"..."

The old man was silent for a moment, and finally said.

"Don't try to fool me, young man. Although I am old and confused, I will not mistake the face of the master. You are nothing like Master Xianlun."

"So, I am Xianji——"

While speaking, Kamo Kenji was suddenly stunned and realized what was wrong.

He sensed a strange aura.

When he pushed open the door, his pupils shrank sharply.

Because inside is Kamo Kentoshi! Or rather, the silk rope covered in this skin!

"Shino's brain is wandering about 150 years ago. Don't blame him." Kinsuo explained with a laugh.

"You're coming back so slowly... No, traffic in Tokyo is completely paralyzed right now, so you're coming back really quickly, Kenji."

"Suyu...Jie...!!"

For a moment, Kenji Kamo didn't know how to address the man in front of him.

"I no longer use that name." Kinsuo laughed, "You should have heard of my true identity in Shibuya, right?"

"An unprecedented attack of magical terror - sealing Gojo Satoru and Death Reborn."

"You think that although the main culprit of the incident is a long-dead person, since he was born in the Kamo family, the conservatives who are the core backbone of the General Directorate may have already become puppets..."

"But since my disguised identity, Geto Suguru, has been ordered to be executed, the conservatives are not rock solid, and the corrupt are only a part of them."

“So you plan to ask Yoshinobu Rakuganji, who has a voice among the conservatives and is trustworthy, to revoke the notice issued by the Directorate General.

"2. Identify Gojo Satoru as the co-conspirator of the Shibuya Incident and expel him from the world of curse forever. Anyone who removes his seal will be considered guilty of the same crime."

"The second clause, 'the act of removing the seal', depending on your interpretation, you and your companion Shattered Stone may be held accountable in the future."

"You are amazing. You are just a student, but you can see through the whole thing and take action."

"But unfortunately, the Directorate has already been mine."

Kamo Kenji's forehead was covered with cold sweat when he heard this: "You used the content of the notice to alert the enemy, and have you eliminated the person who ordered the death penalty for Kagome Jie?"

"There are also people who nominated Yukotsu to execute Xuanhao." Juansuo added with a faint smile.

"The hope in my eyes turned out to be nothing but a little pus squeezed out by this guy?" Hearing this, Kamo Kenji felt despair in his heart. (End of this chapter)
