Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 255: Burning the Shrine
"Damn it! I can't help it! If you're scared, just keep hiding!"

Liu Qiang cursed and stomped on the roof, causing it to collapse. The shock wave spread like a storm.

In the center of the storm, like a rocket launching, swaying flames shot up into the sky, and red clouds of fire covered the sky in an instant.

Hundreds of meters above the sky, Liu Qiang's hair had turned into raging flames, her skin was pitch black, like the deepest flame, and golden textures appeared on her body, making her look like a fire demon.

The sudden change caused a commotion at the Yasukuni Shrine. The dignitaries from various countries who were watching the ceremony and the clergy who were holding the grand ceremony looked up at the sky in panic. The figure that turned the sky into a sea of ​​fire also appeared in their sight.

Liu Qiang, who has entered her strongest state, posed a great threat to the humans below. Only Rimei and Ryomen Sukuna remained calm.

The two Sukuna sat with their horses and golden swords, ignoring the changes in the sky and not taking the initiative to respond.

The Minister of Justice, impatient, approached the mikoshi and shouted to the two Sukuna on the mikoshi, "Sukuna-sama, a criminal is trying to disrupt the festival. Please show your divine power and kill this criminal."

The Minister of Justice felt a chill running down his spine as his eyeballs rolled around. He felt a cold gaze on his face.

The next moment, the head flew up and blood spurted out from his neck like a fountain.

"I hate people who overestimate their abilities. Why do you feel you have the right to ask me for something?"

Ryoumen Sukuna twisted his neck with a look of contempt.

In his eyes, such a grand festival was just an entertainment before Tianyuan assimilated the Japanese, just a small game. What qualifications did he have to order him around when he was destined to become material?

The people around were pale and trembling.

The politicians from various countries who watched the ceremony cursed the entire Japanese political family in their hearts.

How dare you invite such a moody murderer to be your god? If you want to die, why are you bringing them into trouble?

The US Vice President couldn't help but look at the Japanese Prime Minister, but saw that the man looked calm and his expression did not change at all because of the death of the Minister of Justice.

"Fake!"

The Vice President cursed under his breath.

He had hoped to use political power to put pressure on Japan, but who knew that the ghost god invited by the Japanese government could not even influence the Japanese government itself, and was instead beaten and killed at will.

This is really too bad, it is too dangerous to stay here.

Many officials were thinking of backing out, but the two Sukuna were still sitting there. No matter what they were thinking, they could not show it, otherwise they would end up dead.

"Fire!"

In an instant, two golden flames were released from Liu Qiang's body.

The flames extended for hundreds of meters in an instant, turning into two long ropes connecting heaven and earth and shooting towards the ground, tearing open the bodies of the two officials and penetrating straight into the ground.

The official who was cut by the fire immediately caught fire, and in just one second, he turned into two pieces of charcoal.

The two fire husks were like fully drawn bowstrings, launching Liu Qiang towards the two Sukuna on the ground.

However, Huo Huan is the bowstring, and Liu Qiang is not a bullet, but a meteor!

A meteor emitting flames streaked across the sky, leaving a red track, as if splitting the sky in half. The power and momentum of its fall were extremely terrifying.

Faced with this meteor, people couldn't help but have an illusion, an illusion that the sky was shaking.

"untie!"

Ryomen Sukuna sat on the shrine, raised his palm and stretched out his fingers towards Liu Qiang.

An invisible slash came towards Liu Qiang, but before Liu Qiang made the move, he opened his gene lock to the second level and entered the Zhaoshen form.

The powerful crisis sensing ability predicted the shape and direction of the slash. At the critical moment, the fire ring inserted into the ground pulled Liu Qiang's body to the left. Ryomen Sukuna's slash only cut off the fire ring on the right, but did not hurt Liu Qiang's body.

Just one missed attack would be enough to prevent Ryoumen Sukuna from using his second [Release] with Liu Qiang's speed.

The blazing meteor fiercely slammed into the shrine, causing it to explode instantly. The fragments radiated out in all directions like shrapnel, easily penetrating the human body.

The sedan bearers trembled all over, blood splattered from their bodies, and they all died on the spot.

"boom!"

In an instant, accompanied by a heavy muffled sound, the trajectory of the falling meteor shifted 90 degrees.

The fierce flames flew towards the worship corridor, burning the bronze statue of Omura Masujiro on the road into molten iron, and crashed into the gate of the Yasukuni Shrine.

"Finally, someone with some ambition has arrived. Let me have some fun before the assimilation is complete."

Ryomen Sukuna's body fell to the ground, but he was unharmed and looked leisurely in the direction of Shenmen.

0.1 second ago, when Liu Qiang fell from the sky, Ryomen Sukuna, who had already seen through his predictive eyes how Liu Qiang would dodge and attack, grabbed Liu Qiang's fist the moment Liu Qiang rushed in front of him and punched out, and kicked Liu Qiang in the abdomen.

Ryoumen Sukuna, who possesses the eyes of foresight, grasped the timing of his attack very accurately, and Liu Qiang's full-strength attack was easily resolved by Ryoumen Sukuna.

"Well……"

Liu Qiang felt that her intestines were kicked by Ryomen Sukuna, but this was just an illusion caused by the severe pain. Her body was not that fragile.

Enduring the pain, Liu Qiang climbed up from the ground. She used all her fire power to restore the fire ring attached to her back to its original state. She tied the fire ring to several pillars of the Divine Gate and then ran towards the pavilion on the right.

The supersonic movement created a strong shock wave, and flames streaked across, igniting the Shenmen and the Zhaiguan. The exhibits inside were burned to ashes, and buildings collapsed one after another. The green plants along the way turned into candles.

From the Shinmon Gate to the Saikan, and then to the Garden of Comfort at the entrance of the Yasukuni Shrine, Liu Qiang ran wildly around the front half of the Yasukuni Shrine, forming a blazing sea of ​​fire, surrounding the two Sukuna in the middle.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Qiang suddenly stopped, her feet sunk into the ground, her upper body bent forward like a bow, and her arms stretched backward.

In an instant, the sea of ​​fire shook violently as if a bomb had been dropped, and layers of fire raccoons popped out from the dazzling flames. The fire raccoons circled dozens of times and shrank towards the center at an extremely fast speed.

"NO!"

"Ya Butterfly!"

……

Officials from various countries who were watching the ceremony suddenly screamed, with distorted expressions of fear on their faces.

Those layers of fire encircled them as well. When the fire shrank, they were the first to be hit.

Thousands of officials and clergymen were strangled by the fire. The scalding fire melted their clothes and caused their skin to rot. The intense burning sensation made the officials scream in pain.

However, what frightened them even more was that Huo Huan, who was strangling them, was pulling them towards Ryomen Sukuna.

They have witnessed Ryomen Sukuna's cold-bloodedness and cruelty, and everyone can foresee what is about to happen. In order to prevent them from touching him, Ryomen Sukuna will turn them into the same as the Minister of Justice.

However, they guessed wrong!
Not the same as the Minister of Justice, but even more vicious.

Hundreds of slashing blows formed a huge net, which was pushed forward. The officials who were packed up and thrown towards the two Sukuna by Huo Huan crashed into the huge net and their bodies were split into dozens of pieces.

A thick bloody mist rose, sending tens of thousands of pieces of flesh flying through the air. The Prime Minister's head flew through the air, a look of astonishment on his face, as if he had not expected such a fate. The fragments of the body covered the central square of the Yasukuni Shrine like a massive hailstorm, obscuring both Sukuna's vision.

At the same time, spider-web-like cracks spread from under Liu Qiang's feet. Her legs swelled up, erupting with extremely terrifying power, pushing her body towards Ryomen Sukuna.

The slashing net did not disappear because it cut off the bodies of Huo Huan and hundreds of people, but relying on the crisis sensing ability of the mental chain and gene lock that Zhan Lan connected a few seconds ago, Liu Qiang nimbly and quickly passed through the gaps in the slashing net and appeared in front of the two Sukuna.

Liu Qiang's hands slapped the chests of the two Sukuna with strange palm prints, and within a second, several golden palm marks were left in succession.

"Fire Owl!"

The last palm released extremely compressed flames, which engulfed Ryoumen Sukuna's body, blasted forward a thousand meters, and pierced through the distant worship hall.

[Killed a Reincarnator from the East Sea Team...]

[Kill one of the East Sea team's gene-locked reincarnators to gain a B-level side story...]

The Lord God’s reminders sounded one after another.

However, this hint does not announce the death of Ryomen Sukuna.

In fact, when Liu Qiang rushed out, others also began to prepare.

"Life ends!"

"Life ends!"

"Life ends!"

"Life ends!"

Reciting a difficult spell, Zheng Zha, Qi Tengyi, and the two skeleton mages summoned by Qi Tengyi simultaneously released soul-attacking spells at the two Sukuna.

Lingdian, Xiao Honglu, and Zhan Lan worked together to fire a telekinetic bullet with a tenfold speed. The bullet crossed the space and aimed at Ryoumen Sukuna's eyes.

"Wind Arrow!"

Zhang Heng raised his longbow, and the arrow on the full string flew forward with terrifying momentum. The silver flash released tremendous energy and blasted towards the two Sukuna.

"Ghost Arrow!"

Ming Yanwei's Cosmo and the Sagitta Cloth resonated with each other, and the arrow infused with all its power flew out silently, accurately hitting Ryomen Sukuna's heart.

Everyone who could do it did it. There were no strategies or plans. Perhaps if they thought about it for a while, they could come up with a perfect plan.

But before that, everyone understood one thing.

Ryomen Sukuna, who possesses six eyes, precognitive eyes, blood dragon eyes, and red eyes, is good at defeating fancy moves. No matter how sophisticated the moves are, they cannot be hidden from his eye techniques. There is only one way to defeat Ryomen Sukuna, and that is to kill him with absolute power.

It’s a pity that their power is not absolute enough.

The blazing flames and surging deathly aura gradually dissipated. In the center of the spreading sea of ​​fire, Ryome Sukuna stood proudly, and the person who fell down was Liu Qiang!
Just like Gojo Satoru's death, Liu Qiang's body was separated into two parts.

She fell in front of Ryomen Sukuna, the blood flowing from her waist formed a pool under her body, her eyes were wide open, and she was dying.

Ryoumen Sukuna said lightly, "That's great! Your cooperation is truly remarkable. Unfortunately, the power this eye brings to me is greater than all of you combined."

A second ago, Ryoumen Sukuna saw his own defeat through his foresight.

If no measures were taken, his soul would be severely damaged by the end of his quadruple life and would be temporarily separated from this body, which would then be shattered by the two arrows.

Even if he used the soul in his body to support him, Kobayashi Bunsho could only withstand one fourth-level spell that attacked the soul. The remaining triple spells would still cause Ryomen Sukuna to be offline for a few seconds.

In fact, Ryomen Sukuna didn't know all this. He only knew that he would be defeated by two arrows, and he didn't know what the underlying reason for his defeat was.

Well, since the arrows were the direct cause of his defeat, wouldn't it be enough to just cut off those two arrows?
Through the observation of the precognitive eyes and the six eyes, Ryomen Sukuna released three slashes.

A slash blocked the wind arrow.

A slash blocked the ghost arrow.

With one slash, Liu Qiang in front of him was cut in half.

After taking action, Ryoumen Sukuna felt the spell attacking the soul. He decisively treated Kobayashi Bunsho's soul as a consumable and blocked the attack. Then he withstood three attacks and fell into a three-second sluggishness.

These three seconds are the only chance to kill Ryomen Sukuna, but it is too difficult to seize this opportunity.

Zhao Yingkong couldn't do it either. If she took action, Ryomen Sukuna would see it in advance and then change his response measures. In that case, there was a great possibility that Zhao Yingkong would die.

“…It’s my turn.”

Faced with such a situation, Zheng Zha took a deep breath and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Zhan Lan grabbed Zheng Zha without hesitation.

"Don't go and die! You can't beat Ryoumen Sukuna!"

Zhu Wen also nodded quickly.

In her eyes, the Zhongzhou team was in a dark cloud, and everyone was in danger of bloodshed. As long as they attacked Ryomen Sukuna, they would not be able to escape death.

"At least bring back Liu Qiang's body."

"There's no need to rush. Ryoumen Sukuna isn't the type to whip corpses. Didn't we use a soul-preserving spell on Liu Qiang before? We can wait until Ryoumen Sukuna leaves and then retrieve Liu Qiang's body to revive her. If we go now, not only will we not be able to retrieve Liu Qiang's body, but we'll also lose our own lives."

Zhan Lan grabbed Zheng Zha's arm tightly, with such force that Zheng Zha felt pain.

Zheng Zha hesitated.

A strong sense of unwillingness arose from his heart.

Without Wen Lie, is the Zhongzhou team so powerless? Is he so powerless? He can't even charge the enemy.

"hateful!"

The floor beneath Zheng Zha's feet crumbled into powder, and resentment was written all over his face.

He had never wanted power as badly as he did today. Even in the world of Bram Stoker's Dracula, he had never wanted power so badly.

At least, when facing Dracula, he could still fight to the death, but in this battle, he couldn't even fight to the death.

After returning this time, I must strengthen the dark magic no matter what!

Zheng Zha made up his mind.

In his current state, his melee combat ability is weakened, and his spell ability can hardly be effective against stronger individuals. He must strengthen his melee combat ability, otherwise he won't even have the capital to fight to the death.
