Chapter 21: The Power of Withering, Hei Xier's Power
Rumble——! ! !
An invisible slash was swung out from Ryomen Sukuna's hand, leaving large cutting marks on the ground, walls, and buildings along the way, and came in front of Hei Xier with great power.
However, facing the attacks of Ryomen Sukuna, Hei Xier did not dodge or evade at all. All the slashes disappeared silently when they came into contact with the black and red cursed energy that spread within half a meter around Hei Xier's body.
It is not quantization, but a passive effect that simply contains the power of the withering force.
Since the power of withering has the ability to decompose, as long as Hei Xier wants, anything that touches the power of withering, whether it is an object or energy, will be wiped out in an instant. Therefore, when facing a technical attack like Ryomen Sukuna's slash, Hei Xier only needs to rely on the cursed power containing the power of withering lingering around his body to easily make the opponent's attack automatically disintegrate.
After all, in this world of spells, no matter what effect the spell shows, its underlying logic must rely on the operation of spell power. Once the spell power that operates the spell disappears, the spell will naturally become a paper tiger. Defensive spells will directly lose their effect in the face of the power of withering, and offensive spells will simply not be able to break through the spell power defense on Hei Xier's body.
It can be said that in this world, the power of withering is an even more unsolvable ability than Seele's quantization. After all, the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death is even higher in magnitude than quantization. Except for being slightly inferior in mobility, the power of withering is even more rogue than quantization in both offense and defense, especially when the opponent is weaker than oneself.
"The slash...disappeared?"
Looking at the slash that disappeared in front of Hei Xier, Ryoumen Sukuna secretly guessed in his heart.
"Is it some kind of defensive technique, something that can neutralize attacks?"
The slash disappeared the moment it came into contact with the opponent's cursed energy. Could it be that the power of a single attack was not enough and a breakthrough needed to be made with a combined effort?
"Well, never mind. We'll know the details after trying a few more times."
"Don't die so easily, you need to work harder!"
With a hint of arrogant smile on his lips, the figure of Liang Men Sukuna flashed and rushed towards Hei Xier at an extremely fast speed.
"Can you still take the blow from this distance?"
His body carried waves of air as he came in front of Hei Xier, and he waved his hand, ready to launch a slash at the other party in the face.
However, the moment he swung his right hand, Ryomen Sukuna's eyes changed.
If the previous slash was offset by the opponent's ability when it touched the opponent's cursed energy, then this time Ryomen Sukuna's slash disappeared before it could even be released.
Because, the moment it touched the black and red cursed power, Ryomen Sukuna's entire right arm, along with the slash that had not yet been released, disappeared silently at this moment.
There was no movement at all. Neither his own slash nor his entire right arm could cause any ripples in the face of the black and red cursed energy. It was like a pattern being erased from a drawing board. The speed was so fast that Ryomen Sukuna didn't even feel anything about it. His body subconsciously maintained the posture after the slash.
"Ah."
It was obviously not Hei Xier's character to passively take a beating, so when he saw Ryomen Sukuna rushing in front of him as if he were walking into a trap, Hei Xier immediately had an idea, and a black and red tentacle condensed by cursed power suddenly lashed out towards the other party.
Peng!
There was no time to dodge, and Ryomen Sukuna's body was directly pulled away by the tentacles, creating a big hole in the ground below.
"Damn...Damn it!"
Feeling the pain in his body, Ryomen Sukuna crawled up from the ground with a ferocious look on his face.
The good news is that the opponent's attack did not come with that strange ability, and except for the right arm, the rest of his body did not disappear because of the attack just now.
Bad news, after being attacked by the opponent, Ryomen Sukuna found that the cursed energy in his body was reduced by almost half in an instant.
You have to know that he is Ryomen Sukuna. Even if he only has the strength of three fingers now, the cursed power he can call upon is almost ten times more than that of an ordinary special-grade cursed spirit.
However, with just one attack, the opponent's strange ability caused most of his magic power to disappear. If he was hit a few more times, even he would probably fall into the dilemma of running out of magic power and being at the mercy of others.
Therefore, you must never be hit by the opponent's attack again, nor can you get close to the opponent again.
After regenerating his disappeared right arm, Ryomen Sukuna immediately chose to retreat and create some distance.
"He was so arrogant just now, but now he doesn't even dare to come close to me?"
Seeing that Ryoumen Sukuna chose to distance himself from her, Hei Xier's sneer widened and she spoke lightly.
"If it weren't for the fact that we wanted to avoid destroying the original owner of this body, you would have died from that blow just now. Be thankful, Curse King, you have a chance to live."
"Hmph, a curse like yours has been tamed so obediently. Honestly, I'm a little curious. Besides... you don't think you've won just like that, do you?"
Without trying to test again, this time Ryoumen Sukuna chose to attack with all his strength.
Dozens and hundreds of slashes were swung towards Hei Xier from all directions, at various angles and directions. However, without exception, these slashes disappeared when they touched the cursed energy emanating from Hei Xier's body.
brush!brush!brush!
Several black and red tentacles condensed from cursed energy rose from the ground and whipped towards Ryomen Sukuna, forcing Ryomen Sukuna to give up the attack and instead concentrate on dodging the tentacles.
Considering that most of his cursed energy had evaporated after just a brief touch from these tentacles, Ryomen Sukuna didn't dare to even think of touching these tentacles. He twisted and turned his body between the attacks of the tentacles, trying his best to hold on.
However, the next second, Hei Xier's figure instantly appeared in front of Ryomen Sukuna, and a black and red sharp claw appeared out of thin air, slapping the opponent to the ground.
Rumble——! ! !
The force of this blow was so great that the entire juvenile detention center building seemed to be shaking, and the two Sukuna below felt as if their entire bodies were wailing.
But this is not the end. As the black and red claws disappeared, the tentacles condensed by Hei Xier began to attack Ryomen Sukuna in turn. Every time he was attacked, Ryomen Sukuna could feel his cursed power dropping sharply.
"Damn guy!"
Realizing that he would really lose if he continued like this, Ryomen Sukuna didn't care about anything else and forced himself to make a gesture while there was still some remaining cursed energy in his body.
"Let me show you what a true curse is..."
"Field expansion o Demon-subduing chef!"
Chapter 22: Sukuna, the stubborn one, points received
The red shrine rose from the ground, and the surrounding scenery changed instantly.
Taking this opportunity, Sukuna escaped from Hei Xier's attack.
The field expands, giving the user the ability to guarantee that their spells will hit the target, and to amplify the power of their spells by leveraging the field.
In addition, the domain has another effect, which is to neutralize the opponent's cursed power.
In the original work, Louhu used this technique during his first fight with Gojo Satoru. He neutralized Gojo Satoru's normal unlimited technique by expanding his field, allowing his attack to break through the defense of the unlimited technique. In the Battle of Shibuya, he used the same principle of field extension to counter Gojo Satoru's unlimited technique.
Now, Ryomen Sukuna obviously had the same idea.
Since the opponent's strange ability cannot be broken through by normal means, you might as well use the domain to neutralize it, that is, you can break down the layer of magic defense. The opponent is in your domain, and you can easily use a stronger slash to kill him.
Thinking of this, Sukuna raised his head with malice and looked at Hei Xier who was not far away, hoping to see an expression of surprise or panic on the other's face.
Unfortunately, when facing the expansion of Sukuna's domain, Hei Xier's face did not show any panic, but instead showed a look that was not sure whether it was pity or sarcasm.
"Is this your last struggle?"
"What do you mean?"
Logically speaking, with the opponent's strength, it is impossible for them not to be aware of the danger of the field. The best way to deal with the field is to deploy the field in the same way so that the effects of the two fields cancel each other out.
But the curse in front of him did not move at all, and had no intention of taking Sukuna, who had expanded his domain, into consideration.
Such performance did not make Sukuna happy, but made him feel a little uneasy. After all, the strength that the other party had shown before was not fake. Without opening the domain, with his current strength, it can be said that he had no room for resistance in front of the other party.
Wouldn't such a guy be unaware of the territory and the dangers of it?
"What do you mean? You don't really think you can defeat me by relying on your domain, do you? Since you are so confident in your domain, why not take a closer look at the current situation of your domain?"
What is the current situation in your field?
Hearing Hei Xier's answer, Ryomen Sukuna subconsciously sensed his own territory, and then his four eyes suddenly widened.
Because, according to Ryomen Sukuna's perception, a completely blank area appeared in his territory at some point, and it was out of his control.
Moreover, the scope of this area is still expanding. Looking closely, it is the black and red cursed power that previously enveloped the opponent's body, which is now spreading continuously within his own territory.
All areas covered by the black and red cursed power filled with deathly silence disappeared from his perception in an instant.
Could this be the other party's territory?
No, that's not right. Judging from Ryomen Sukuna's experience, this is obviously not a domain. Combined with the previous encounter, it is obvious that this is just the effect of the opponent's technique.
However, he had only heard of spells that could neutralize a domain, but Ryoumen Sukuna had never heard of a spell that could actually destroy a domain!
"eight!"
Realizing that he could not allow the other party to continue dissolving his domain, Ryomen Sukuna immediately gathered almost all of his remaining cursed energy and released the strongest attack he could at the moment.
brush!
The invisible huge slash crossed the entire field and instantly arrived in front of He Xier.
Unfortunately, this strongest attack that gathered the last of Sukuna's cursed power and hope was no different from the previous attack. The moment it touched the black and red cursed power, it disappeared silently.
Is such a terrifying technique really supposed to exist in this world?
Ryomen Sukuna fell silent.
At this moment, he felt for the first time that he seemed to have fallen behind the times.
Compared to the extremely powerful technique in front of him, his once invincible slashing technique seemed a little too simple.
No, it must be because my strength is not at its peak. If all twenty fingers were gathered together, the curse in front of me would definitely not be my opponent!
With this thought in mind, Ryomen Sukuna did not continue to resist, allowing the spreading black and red cursed power to overwhelm him.
My consciousness is about to disappear. Is that little ghost coming out?
No, it was simply that under the influence of the opponent's curse, his consciousness was about to collapse and fell into silence.
Unable to mobilize a trace of cursed power, all the functions of the body came to a standstill at this moment. Once enveloped by this strange cursed power, even the most powerful curse or sorcerer would probably be helpless.
No, judging from the fact that my body disappeared instantly when it touched the other party's cursed power, an ordinary sorcerer would probably have been wiped out when he was surrounded by this strange cursed power.
What a terrifying ability, it's like the embodiment of pure death.
"Let's just say you win this time. Curse of good luck! You'd better pray that when I completely regain my power and take away this little devil's body, you'll still be so lucky."
The black lines disappeared from his body, and Yuji Itadori fell to the ground.
Facing Sukuna who only logged off after saying something stubbornly, Hei Xier shook her head in boredom and withdrew her cursed power.
"With only three fingers of strength, Ryoumen Sukuna is much weaker than imagined."
It can be said that Hei Xier did not enjoy this battle at all, and she was restrained throughout the entire battle. As it was just a sparring match and she could not kill her opponent, not even one tenth of the horror of the power of withering was revealed.
"It can't be helped. A three-finger Sukuna wouldn't even be able to defeat Ruhu, and Ruhu, who is supposedly eight or nine fingers strong, was slaughtered by Gojo Satoru and Fifteen-finger Sukuna. If we really want a satisfying fight, I guess only Twenty-finger Sukuna or Gojo Satoru at full strength can do it, right?"
Seeing that the battle here was over, An Xiu and Xier in the distance also came to Hei Xier's side.
After comforting Hei Xier, An Xiu looked at Yuji Itadori who was lying on the ground with no sign of waking up, and turned to look at Xier beside him.
"Xier, give him some treatment."
Although Hei Xier always limited the power of Withering Power during the battle and withdrew all the Withering Power as soon as the battle ended, the situation of Yuji Itadori, whose entire body had been shrouded in the Withering Power for a period of time, is still not optimistic.
If left alone, the healing methods of the world of curse would probably be completely unable to cure Yuji Itadori at this moment. After all, there is still a small amount of withering power remaining in his body. Without the restriction of Hei Xier, these residual powers alone are enough to make Yuji Itadori disappear on the spot in an instant.
"I understand, Brother Anxiu."
White cursed energy gathered in his hands, and the vital power of creation was spread over Yuji Itadori's body, dispelling the remaining power of withering and quickly restoring his body.
Meanwhile, An Xiu, who was standing by, heard the system's prompt sound in his ears.
"Ding! It was detected that Seele defeated Ryoumen Sukuna for the host, and 5000 points were rewarded."
Chapter 23: System Mall Refresh, New Avatar Appears
"Ding! It was detected that Seele defeated Ryoumen Sukuna for the host, and 5000 points were rewarded."
Hearing the system prompt, An Xiu showed a satisfied smile on his face.
Sure enough, just as Ryoumen Sukuna himself said in the original work, there is an independent consciousness clone of Ryoumen Sukuna in each of Sukuna's fingers, so each finger can trigger a system reward separately.
Previously, Xier defeated Yizhi Sukunu and triggered a reward. This time, Hei Xier defeated Sanzhi Sukunu and triggered a reward again.
One finger is worth 2500 points, and three fingers are worth a total of 7500 points.
"No, something seems to be missing. Why didn't I trigger the reward when I killed that special-grade imaginary cursed spirit?"
Suddenly, An Xiu realized something was wrong. In this Children's Palace incident, in addition to Ryomen Sukuna, Xier also defeated a special-grade imaginary curse spirit. Why didn't killing that special-grade imaginary curse spirit trigger the system reward?
"Ding, since that special-grade imaginary cursed spirit was created by the power of Sukuna's finger, it is counted as the same reward as Sukuna's finger itself."
The system's answer came to An Xiu's ears.
"Does the cursed spirit created by Sukuna's finger share the same reward as the Sukuna finger itself?"
