Curse Reply: I'm going to fight the Myriad Corpse Immortal, the highest level one!

Faced with Xia Jie's wise words, Su Nuo's tense body slowly relaxed, and a knowing smile appeared on his lips:

"If I'm not mistaken, your spell only works when you neither move nor attack, right?"

"Let me guess again. Your technique can absorb and store external attacks, and transform them into blue light spots that kill Lu Suo, right?"

"In other words, everything you say is just a pretense to portray yourself as strong, hoping to mislead me and put me in danger!"

Click—!

Click—!

A series of fine, dense cracking sounds rang out.

Because Su Nu actively cut off the supply of magical power, the domain, which was no longer sustained by magical power, automatically collapsed, shattered, and disappeared, revealing the outermost blue-white ice shell.

Sunlight streamed through the crack created by the crow's crow, illuminating the two figures.

"What does it mean?"

If Xia Jie hadn't known her own situation, she might have believed Su Nuo's words.

After all, according to normal logic, the scenario Sukuna predicted is the most likely outcome.

Surely it can't be that some numerically monstrous transmigrator suddenly appears and gets kicked to death by the King of Curses, right?

"What do you mean? Did I hit a nerve and you panic?"

Having regained his composure, Su Nuo slowly walked up to Xia Jie, brought his face close to Xia Jie's ear, and spoke with increasing pleasure.

"Come on, kid, I'm standing right here, come and attack me."

As they spoke, Su Nuo took the initiative to lift Xia Jie's hand, pressed it against his cheek, and grinned.

"Come on, hit me!"

Snapped--!

With a clear, crisp sound, Su Nuo was sent flying by Xia Jie's large purse, crashing to the ground with a thud.

Although it didn't seem like he used much force, and his body didn't fly out and crash through the building, the palm strike seemed to penetrate straight into his brain, making him dizzy.

Xia Jie withdrew her hand and sighed softly, "I've never heard of such a strange request before."

Under Su Nuo's somewhat dazed and bewildered gaze, Xia Jie stretched out her index fingers and tapped the temples on both sides of her head.

"Think about it, Su Nuo, think about it!"

"Why are you and I still able to stand normally on the rooftop? Why is the ground completely undamaged after being struck by the domain's attacks? Think about it, who has the spare capacity to protect it?"

"There's only one answer: I'm far better than you, so much better that I have the capacity to take care of the architecture."

"Cough cough, I! Don't! Believe!"

Su Nu coughed as he stood up and used a reversal technique to repair the red handprint on his cheek that had made him feel extremely embarrassed.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Xia Jie put her hands back in her pockets.

"I ask you, why do you stand idly by and watch Lu Suo assimilate all of humanity?"

"Didn't you love using humans for amusement? If Lu Suo succeeds, what will you have left?"

"Don't act like you know me so well. That's my choice in Sukuna, and I don't need anyone else to tell me what to do."

Su Nuo's gaze was icy. He felt the clicking sound of the Wheel of Adaptation turning in the shadows, suppressed his anger and killing intent, and continued to exchange trash talk with Xia Jie to buy time.

"And then, that great cursed spirit will become your final pastime. After killing the great cursed spirit, what will you have left?"

"It can't be Rimei, can it?"

Sensing the subtle changes in Su Nuo's shadow, Xia Jie still felt no pressure. Even if Mo Xu Luo's wheel could spin two thousand times per second, it wouldn't pose any threat to him for the time being.

After all, his wheel has been spinning for a full 4.6 billion years.

"And you, I still have you, Xia Jie. I will spare your life so you can witness everything come to an end, and then I will kill you when you are utterly desperate."

Even though he was at a complete disadvantage, Su Nuo's tone remained carefree and composed, as if he were the victor in this battle.

"Besides, you seem to have misunderstood one fact, kid. You're the challenger!"

Sukuna, confident in his two trump cards—hidden body and Demon Void—declared victory.

"Someone who can't even sense my magical power has the audacity to say such a thing?"

Xia Jie took a step forward and disappeared from Su Nuo's sight.

"Disappeared?"

Su Nuo's pupils contracted sharply, and his four eyes desperately searched for Xia Jie's whereabouts.

"Take a look behind you again?"

Su Nuo turned around sharply at the sound and saw Xia Jie with her palms clasped together.

"What is this handprint!?"

Having shared Fuhei's memories, he saw what Xia Jie was going to do, but it was precisely because he knew that he found it incredible.

"Domain Expansion: Embedded Dark Courtyard!"

Using an ice shell as a sealed structure, Xia Jie recreated the domain expansion of Fushiguro Megumi from the anime using memory techniques!

The surging tide of shadows completely covered the inner walls of the ice shell before Su Nuo, whose spell had been broken, could react.

Xia Jie's voice gradually faded into the dark tide, and in its place came... Reggie's voice!

"How interesting. Even though it's completely dark, we can still see each other clearly, Mr. Fushiguro."

Reggie, an ancient sorcerer with long blond hair and clothes covered in banknotes, has arrived.

Counterfeit goods? A transformation technique?

A strong sense of denial rose in Sukuna's heart, followed by a denial of denial itself.

No, it's genuine!

What kind of magic does Xia Jie possess? Is it illusion magic?

Damn it, after defeating Xia Jie, how much strength do I still have left to deal with Gojo Satoru?

Su Nu clenched his fists, wanting to use his superior physical skills to finish off Reggie as quickly as possible.

"I'm not Fukuro!"

The fist, enhanced with magical power, reached Reggie before Sukuna could answer.

Then, Sukuna, who was confident of victory, could only watch helplessly as Reggie dodged his punch.

"A new sign."

Reggie spoke softly.

Three cars plunged into the shadows, and Su Nuo was bent over by their weight.

"What's going on? This guy in front of me is weird!"

Su Nuo's forehead veins bulged as he mustered all his strength to resist the weight's pressure.

"No, something's wrong with my body!"

Su Nuo could no longer sense his own spell power, magic formula, innate domain, or the existence of Mo Xu Luo. Even his two extra eyes had disappeared without a trace.

In other words, aside from the difference in consciousness, Sukuna at this moment is a complete replica of Fushiguro Megumi, the one who can be exorcised by a level two cursed spirit!

"Who exactly are you?"

Su Nu struggled to lift her head, her eyes fixed on Reggie.

"I'm Reggie. Have you forgotten me so quickly?"

Reggie smoothed his hair and smiled as he looked at the corrupted Sukuna.

"Your appearance, your magic, all tell me you are Reggie... but my soul denies it!"

"Tell me quickly, what exactly are you?"

Sukuna, whose voice had also darkened, shouted angrily.

"What are you talking about? I am Reggie, the real Reggie."

Reggie tore off a receipt, conjured a set of dumbbells, and added a bit more burden to Sukuna, or rather, to Mr. Fushiguro.

"I mean, how long are you going to let your soul be manipulated, Reggie!" Sukuna was already flushed.

"Then I'd like to ask you, how long are you going to let Sukuna control you, Fushiguro Megumi?"
