Zongman: My days as a chaebol in Japan

Chapter 356 Demon Eye Breaks the Moon

"Upper Five? Is that the location of that Jade Pot? It did say its name is Jade Pot, and there is indeed a character "Five" in the pupil of its eye." Ryougi Shiki saw that the two had recovered a lot, and was ready to go support Katsura Kotonoha who was in a stalemate over there.

"That's right. This is the symbol of an important member of the demon clan. I didn't expect that you could kill it. Its hands are stained with a lot of human blood." Kocho Kanae also stood up and thanked Ryougi Shiki.

"Kakushibo is the second most powerful person in the demon clan after the clan leader Muzan. His fighting power is terrifying. I will go with you to help your companions, Shinobu, you stay here and take care of this guy," said Kanae Kocho, who clenched the Nichirin Sword in her hand and stood up from the ground.

"No need, it's just a demon. I can already see the death line on him." Ryougi Shiki was a little impressed by how Kocho Kanae stood up and continued fighting despite being in a damaged state.

However, she didn't need to, because her demonic eyes had already seen the death line on Kokushibo's body. Although it was very faint, it was still obvious.

"But..." Kanae Kocho wanted to say something, but Ryougi Shiki had already flashed away and entered the battlefield between Kotonoha Katsura and Kokushibo.

Kokushibo was constantly consuming Katsura Kotonoha's Sun Divine Fire, and his clothes had become a bit like beggar's clothes. His opponent had an ability to suddenly burst out with several times the attack, breaking through his defense circle and attacking him, but he used his internal energy to defend against the power of the sun, and the regenerative ability of the demon clan could completely ignore the injuries other than the power of the sun.

Just when Kokushibo was about to release his sword skills again, a severe danger warning suddenly appeared in his heart. The feeling was just like when he encountered his own brother, as if he was warned that he would die in the next second.

Type 5 Moon Soul Disaster Vortex!!

Kokushibo instantly burst out with his internal energy to protect his body, and then his body spun wildly, generating a huge vortex of blade wind around him. The next second after the wind blade appeared, the tip of Doujikiri Angang's knife collided with the wind blade, followed by the figure of Ryougi Shiki holding Doujikiri Angang who was knocked away.

Seeing Ryougi Shiki being knocked away, Katsura Kotonoha flashed behind her and reached out to catch her.

Kokushibo's defensive skill formed a small tornado, and countless wind blades flew in all directions, pushing the building, which had already been destroyed in the battle between the two, one step further. Many evil spirits hidden in the building jumped out and prepared to escape, but were split in two by the wind blades the next moment.

When Katsura Yanye saw Kokushibo's large-scale move, she temporarily retreated and continued to swing her sword to shatter the wind blade.

The small tornado took half a minute to stop. The buildings within a hundred meters had been completely reduced to ruins. In the center, the sword in Kokushibo's hand changed. The original strange sword began to grow blade-shaped objects from the holes in the blade.

Originally a katana weapon, it is now more like a rake with blades on both sides.

Kokushibo's figure flashed in the small tornado, and the next second he appeared in front of Ryougi Shiki, swiftly swinging the strange weapon in his hand.

"clang", the Seishin sword slashed across and blocked Kokushibo's attack.

"Get out of here!" Kokushibo was no longer as calm as before, and his whole body exuded a huge murderous intent.

The long night of Lu Zhixing, the lonely moon, and the endless space!

Facing Kotonoha Katsura's obstruction, Kokushibo launched his sixth move of Moon Breathing, slashing rapidly and staggeredly. The madly flying sword energy accompanied by a huge amount of crescent-shaped blades enveloped Kotonoha Katsura and Ryougi Shiki beside her.

Ryougi Shiki was just a little surprised that Kokushibo suddenly appeared in front of her. After Katsura Kotonoha blocked Kokushibo's attack, she reacted quickly. Purple light flashed in her eyes, a sun mark appeared between her eyebrows, and her aura instantly rose.

With the activation of the Sun Mark, the death line that was not very obvious due to the gap in realm instantly solidified. Doujikiri Yasunaga swung his sword, the sword flashed, and the sword energy emitted by Kokushibo was instantly shattered.

"How is this possible? My Mugen Slash was broken with just one sword strike. It's exactly the same as what happened to Yoriichi at that time." When Kokushibo saw that his Mugen Slash was broken by Ryougi Shiki with just one sword strike, bad memories flooded into his mind. He was stunned and one of his arms flew up.

Covering his broken left arm, Kokushibo looked at Ryougi Shiki who was holding the kodachi with fear. However, he was not so wary of Katsura Kotonoha who had cut off his arm.

The flesh at the wound began to wriggle, and a new arm grew out in less than three seconds. Seeing this, Katsura Kotonoha and Ryougi Shiki had a completely new understanding of the regenerative ability of the demon clan.

"Kotonoha, let me do it. My magic eyes have already seen the trajectory of his death." Ryougi Shiki calculated that from the time she came in to the battle after killing Yu Hu just now, almost an hour had passed. She didn't want to waste time. If this demon named Kokushibo would also turn into black smoke after death, then for the two people who wanted to use the trophies as proof, it would only be a side effect.

Doujikiri Yasunaga swung his sword, and two sword energies nearly ten meters long hit Kokushibo directly. Behind the sword energies was the figure of Ryougi Shiki running towards him.

Kokushibo saw that Ryougi Shiki's attack was slightly weaker than Katsura Kotonoha's, but his heart kept sending extremely dangerous signals, reminding himself that he would die if he was touched by the sword energy.

Pick up the type of face-piercing slash, Luo Yue!

Moon Breathing is an extremely destructive move. Three huge spinning swords shattered everything around them and collided with Ryougi Shiki's sword energy. What surprised Kokushibo was that his indestructible sword energy was actually destroyed directly by Ryougi Shiki's two ordinary sword energies.

"Boom, crack!" When Kokushibo saw his sword moves being shattered, he quickly dodged. Ryougi Shiki's sword energy with the power of the Mystic Eyes fell on the building and the ground behind Kokushibo, creating a huge roar. The objects that were hit were turned into powder directly like paper entering a high-precision crusher.

Seeing that the two sword energies he dodged could actually cause such a degree of damage, a drop of cold sweat involuntarily flowed down Kokushibo's forehead. He didn't know whether the demon's regenerative ability could still take effect and recover from the powder state after he had resisted the sword energy just now.

"You're too much of an eyesore, and since you don't want to leave, then die here," Ryougi Shiki's voice came from behind Kokushibo. At the same time, the tip of Douji Chiang Gang's knife had reached Kokushibo's neck, and it was about to cut into the neck. Ryougi Shiki used all the power of the sun to increase her speed and broke free from Kokushibo's visual capture.

Faced with the life-and-death crisis, Kokushibo's will to survive erupted, and his body instinctively stepped back and turned sideways before his consciousness could react.

Chapter 357: Shinobu Kocho's Plan

After retreating more than ten meters in an instant, Kokushibo touched his neck and found that it had been cut in half. It was almost there. If his body had reacted half a second slower, his neck would have been cut off.

When Kokushibo saw Ryougi Shiki preparing to chase him, he stomped his foot, jumped up, and walked away, waving the weapon in his hand.

The Sixteenth Type of Moon Rainbow: Lonely Moon!

Several sword energies hundreds of meters long appeared, shattering the surrounding buildings and falling directly towards Ryougi Shiki.

When Ryougi Shiki saw that the pursuit route was blocked by sword energy, she paused and also jumped back.

This time Kokushibo's attack was stronger than the previous one and had a wider range. He released a sword skill similar to the ultimate move. Several sword energies that were hundreds of meters long fell and directly caused a huge explosion. In a range of nearly a thousand meters, the ground and the buildings on it were directly blown over.

"He actually escaped?" Gui Yanye had been paying attention to the fight between the two. After seeing Kokushibo's route and attack, she immediately guessed his plan. She leaped onto a relatively intact building with a few leaps, and used the force to fly. Then she saw Kokushibo flash into the space crack, and then the space crack quickly shrank.

Under the sweep of mental power, the cold malice emitted by the demons and ghosts could no longer be found.

After hearing what Gui Yanye said, the Butterfly Sisters, whose movements were no longer affected, immediately went to the location where the space crack had originally existed. They saw the scene where there was nothing but the ground and air, and they felt a little headache.

"If you can't find the way back, why don't you follow us first? I don't know about others, but my man can definitely find the way back to your world." Gui Yanye saw that the Butterfly sisters had temporarily lost their direction, so she invited them to follow her first. After going out, she would ask Li Xuan if he had any information about the channel to the Butterfly sisters' world.

"Thank you, Miss Kotonoha and Miss Shiki. Shinobu and I are sorry to bother you for a while. I didn't have time to ask you if you are looking for something here. I didn't have time to ask that guy just now." Kanae Kotonoha put away her weapon, straightened her clothes, thanked them, and then asked about the purpose of Kotonoha and Shiki's coming here.

Just now, when Miyamoto Gojo met him, Kokushibo appeared the next moment. Without saying a word, Kokushibo attacked the two of them. Although Miyamoto Gojo was full of sense of justice, his cultivation was too low. If the Butterfly sisters had not been fighting desperately, he would have been almost cut in half by Kokushibo several times.

Katsura Kotonoha began to explain the reasons why the two of them came in, and mentioned Miyamoto Gojo who was still lying on the ground in the distance. The three of them came for the same reason.

"Oh, so we have arrived at the legendary human world, right? In that case, let us help you. I am also very curious about the records of the human world." Shinobu Kocho could not hide the curiosity in her eyes. After seeing the records of the human world in the library, she always wanted to come to the human world. In addition to curiosity, more importantly, she wanted to find a strong man in the human world, a strong man who could kill Muzan.

Shinobu Kocho's world is in a remote corner of the fantasy world, which belongs to the territory of the Hell Demon Clan. The Hell Demon Clan is an extremely warlike race. Although the Demon Clan has strange abilities, the clan leader with the highest cultivation, Muzan, is only equivalent to the commander-level in the Hell Demon Clan. Therefore, the Hell Demon Clan does not care about this race. The commander-level is just qualified to enter the core gate in the Hell Demon Clan.

The Demon Slayer Corps, to which Shinobu Kocho belongs, is a force that has been hostile to the Demon Clan for generations. The ultimate goal of the Demon Slayer Corps is to kill the clan's patriarch, Muzan, who has survived for hundreds of years and is the source of the Demon Slayer Corps who has outlasted more than a dozen generations of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Muzan has strong abilities, but his strongest point is his ability to escape. Every time the Demon Slayer Corps loses a large amount of combat power and drags him into a desperate situation, he can self-destruct and escape.

The demon clan is restrained by the sunlight and high temperature. Shinobu Kocho heard very clearly what Kokushibo said during the battle just now. The two people who saved herself and Kanae, the noble Katsura Kotonoha and the cold Ryougi Shiki, possess the power of the sun. Although Kokushibo later confirmed that this power was only temporary, Shinobu Kocho wanted to meet the owner of the power of the sun.

Just relying on the power of the sun, it can instantly elevate Katsura Kotonoha and Ryougi Shiki, who are only slightly stronger than itself and Kanae, to the commander level. Its owner must be countless times stronger than the commander level, and there is a high probability that he is a demon king-level strongman.

(Demon God - Demon King - Commander - Demon General - Demon Soldier - Demon, corresponding to the six realms in the human world)

Although Shinobu Kocho's combat power has reached the level of a demon general, she is actually not very strong in battle. She mainly relies on pharmacology, configuring potions that restrain the target to achieve the purpose of killing or repelling the enemy.

She had heard the Demon Slayer Corps leader talk about two solutions to deal with Muzan at the Pillar Conference. One was to trap him and prevent him from escaping until the sun rose, and the sunlight would kill Muzan; the other was to directly invite a demon lord-level strongman to take action and use the power of rules to kill Muzan directly.

In the territory of the hell demon clan, the stronger you are, the more respected you are. There, even if you are a relative, it will be considered a shame if you ask a stronger person for help because you cannot win.

Shinobu Kocho has been trying to find a way to break the fate of the Demon Slayer Corps. The members of the Demon Slayer Corps are just normal humans. They increase their strength by extremely exploiting their own potential, but the price is a drastic decrease in their lifespan. The demons, however, have no such concerns. They accepted the blood of their patriarch Muzan, and their lifespan became the same as Muzan's.

The demon clan's approach to the Demon Slayer Corps has always been to beat them hard if they can, and run away if they can't, and then use their extraordinary lifespan to outlast them.

Until now, Shinobu Kocho finally saw hope of breaking the impasse. The human world can remain unaffected by the invasion of the fantasy world, and there will be more powerful people there. She wants to seize this opportunity. For this, she has made plans to sacrifice everything.

Katsura Kotonoha didn't think there was anything wrong with what Shinobu Kocho said. After all, she and the group of sisters in the villa were actually quite curious about the fantasy world, so she could understand Shinobu Kocho's curiosity.

"Okay, then let's start searching for the evil spirits that are still left here, find the two strongest ones, and kill the rest directly," Gui Yanye took the lead and walked forward, spreading his mental power to search for the evil spirits that had not been accidentally killed in the two rounds of destructive wars.

"Um, aren't you going to take this young man with you?" Shinobu Kocho reminded them when she saw that Katsura Kotonoha and Ryougi Shiki ignored Miyamoto Gojo's intentions on the ground.

"There is no trace of any evil spirits here, and Niten Ichiryu is not a school for the weak. He just encountered an enemy that was too powerful. Now the enemy is gone. He will be fine. Besides, he probably doesn't want to accept our protection," Ryougi Shiki followed behind Katsura Kotonoha, and when she heard what Shinobu Kocho said, she turned back and said something.

- Shinobu Kocho

Chapter 358 Nine-leaf Flower

"Miss Ryougi Shiki is right. Niten Ichiryu is not a weakling. He can kill a mere evil spirit with ease." Miyamoto Gojo supported himself on the ground with his hands, sat up, and responded proudly, although the pain in his body made his voice tremble when he spoke.

However, Miyamoto Gojo didn't want Niten Ichiru to lose face here.

The Butterfly sisters walked at the end. Kanae Butterfly said something in her sister's ear, and Shinobu Butterfly nodded, took out a bottle of potion, came in front of Miyamoto Gojo, and put it in his hand.

"Thank you very much, young man. Although you didn't defeat Kokushibo in the end, your courage is worthy of praise. This is the healing potion I prepared. It can quickly restore your injuries and physical strength. Come on," Shinobu Kocho put down the potion, smiled, then turned around and followed Kanae and the others.

Miyamoto Gojo looked at the potion which still had some residual warmth in his hand and was stunned for a moment. Then the pain in his body immediately woke him up from Shinobu Kocho's smile. He pulled out the cork and drank the potion.

The sealed area is not very large, only about three or four kilometers in radius. After Kokushibo and the others came in, Yuhu discovered the evil spirits inside and left his blood on the body of the strange fish. The evil spirits that were attacked and bitten by the strange fish were all infected by Yuhu's blood and turned into ghouls. Because it was not Muzan's blood, these ghouls could not be transformed into the demon ghost clan.

Tamao's attack range is very large, but due to time constraints, he soon encountered Miyamoto Gojo. After Miyamoto Gojo passed by, Tamao hid in the dark and prepared for a sneak attack, but was discovered by Katsura Kotonoha and Ryougi Shiki.

Finally, a few evil ghosts whose strength had reached the level of no leakage escaped being transformed into corpse ghosts by the jade pot.

However, this was not their luck, because they soon met the four daughters of Gui Yanye.

"These should be the only evil spirits left here. When Yu Hu transformed the corpse spirits just now, they should have fled here together," Katsura Yanye looked at the evil spirits trembling under the pressure of herself and Ryougi Shiki.

The Qingxin sword was unsheathed and sheathed in less than a second.

The heads of several evil spirits fell off their necks. They didn't notice anything and the last thing they saw was a headless body before their vision fell into darkness.

Katsura Kotonoha and Ryougi Shiki pulled out the fangs of the evil spirit, which were their trophies and also the proof of the trial.

All the evil spirits in the sealed land were eliminated. The light golden light in the ruined town shot straight into the sky and then the scattered light formed a protective shield, covering the entire sealed land.

"This is the purification ritual. It's been restored. Is there anyone else here?" As a member of the demon-exorcising clan, Ryougi Shiki naturally knew very well what this light golden shield was.

This technique is used to purify evil spirits and evil spirits. After the technique is performed, a shield centered on the caster will appear. The size of the shield is related to the caster's strength. The enemies within the shield will be continuously attacked by the power of purification.

However, this technique must be released actively. The four of them just used full speed and searched the entire sealed area within a few minutes. Except for the few evil spirits that were just killed, the only one left was Miyamoto Gojo who had already started searching for evil spirits again. Miyamoto Gojo was a master of Niten and would not retreat from the magic technique.

Ten seconds later, Ryougi Shiki arrived at the center of the sealed area and saw a plant emitting a light golden glow, a withered nine-leaf flower.

"What kind of flower is this? It can actually emit the same solar power as Xuanjun. Although its power is not as strong as Xuanjun's, its purity is almost the same as Xuanjun's." Gui Yanye walked over curiously and observed closely.

When there was still about two meters away, the sun mark on Gui Yanye's hand suddenly lit up. Ryougi Shiki, who was following behind Gui Yanye, was even more exaggerated. A sun mark appeared directly between her eyebrows, and then an illusory figure appeared.

"Shiki, where are the enemies?", the illusory figure asked as soon as it appeared, with a golden-red light flashing in its eyes. The four girls, Katsura Kotonoha and Miyamoto Gojo who were walking towards here from a distance suddenly felt as if they were being scanned by something.

"Xuan Jun, there is no enemy. It's a problem with this nine-leaf flower. Yanye and I just walked closer, and the sun power in our bodies was directly activated," Ryougi Shiki pointed to the withered little flower in the distance.

Hearing that the power of the sun was activated, curiosity appeared in Li Xuan's eyes. He turned his head and looked over, and recognized the true face of the Nine-Leaf Flower at a glance.

"Shi, bring this little flower back," Li Xuan's shadow said, and the sun mark on Gui Yanye's hand emitted a dazzling light. Rays of golden light flew out and were commanded by Li Xuan, flying directly into the light golden column of light. The light golden column of light directly turned into a golden column of light.

Ryougi Shiki clearly felt that this purification ritual had been strengthened a lot. Its original purification ability, which could only purify those below the Pure Land Realm and weaken the evil spirits in the Pure Land Realm, was directly upgraded to a higher level, becoming able to purify the Pure Land Realm and weaken the True Person Realm.

After the beam of light turned golden, Li Xuan stopped moving. The sun mark on Gui Yanye's hand also dimmed by half and disappeared again.

"Well done, I'll wait for you outside," said Li Xuan's shadow, then turned into golden light and dissipated, returning to the center of Ryougi Shiki's eyebrows.

Ryougi Shiki took the nine-leaf grass that Katsura Kotonoha had pulled out, but it still looked withered.

"Shi, do you know what this is?" Gui Yanye asked curiously as he fiddled with the nine-leaf grass with the handle of the Qingxin sword.

Ryougi Shiki looked at the nine-leaf grass carefully, and finally shook his head, "I don't know, we can go out and ask Xuanjun."
