After thousands of years of reincarnation, Yuyuko has made some progress, except for the increase in her demonic power.

This martial art is enough to be used on the battlefield.

However, it’s not enough.

Even the battles that Yuyuko had accumulated over thousands of years were not as exciting as Sakurai’s in just three months.

This level of [skill] is necessary for Sakurai, who has defeated powerful enemies time and time again and finally won the battle.

It is not an overly powerful existence.

The saying “an inch longer, an inch more dangerous” doesn’t work for Sakurai, at least not for Yuyuko.

The crimson blade danced on his fingertips, easily blocking Yuyuko’s attacks again and again.

Then–

Seizing an opportunity, Sakurai mobilized the latent power within the Aragami Fang and covered it with the flame of the soul.

Plasticize, and then strengthen its toughness and sharpness.

In another clash with Torateji, Sakurai, who had been waiting for a long time, pressed down hard.

He broke this famous spear from four hundred years ago with great efficiency.

So, what moves does Yuyuko still have that she hasn’t used yet?

Thinking this, Sakurai felt like he was being locked by something.

Looking up, he saw the feathered fox using its tail to draw a bow and arrow, with an arrow aimed at his chest.

Its name is the Five-Tailed Bow, and it is the pinnacle of long-range weapons in ancient times, and it is also…

The only long-range weapon possessed by Yuyuko.

At this moment, the only shortcoming of the bowstring has been overcome by the feathered fox with nine tails.

The endless stream of arrows turned into a rain of arrows and shot towards Sakurai.

He attacked Sakurai with a violent and oppressive force.

This is the trick that Yuyuko, a great demon with thousands of years of demonic power, is best at.

This scene inevitably reminded Sakurai of a weapon called Zhuge Crossbow from the Three Kingdoms period.

but–

Who do you think I am? I have fought similar battles thousands of times.

Less here…

You look down on people.

So…

It’s time, checkmate’s time.

Sakurai slowly opened her five fingers and followed the guidance of his fingertips.

The armor made of the soul flame that had been wrapped around his body from beginning to end disintegrated into ripples.

Intercept all the arrows shot by Yuyuko.

Sakurai knew it from the beginning.

As a reincarnated monster, it’s true that every time you die you gain an extra tail.

It is true that the accumulated demonic power will also be doubled.

Correspondingly, Yuyuko’s ability to control power is extremely weak.

It was as if her favorite thing was to defeat the enemy through bombardment.

She is simply incapable of delicate combat.

In the thousand years of reincarnation, she has not been able to get any real training.

He died in repeated betrayals and misfortunes.

After all, the so-called thousand years might not actually be a hundred years.

“So…”

“General.”

Closing her eyes, Sakurai whispered.

“Kill, the dagger will be revealed and the blood will be shed!!!”

The moment the words fell, Sakurai disappeared from the spot and reappeared.

The Aragami Fang had already pierced through Yuyuko’s chest, and the soul flame that followed crushed her heart.

The barrier that kept the sky from collapsing and the earth from falling apart, but the mountains and rivers remained the same, collapsed and turned into an eight-sided bright silver hammer that returned to Sakurai’s palm.

The outcome of this battle has been decided.

Sakurai——

Win!!!

14. Go ahead and change it up

While Sakurai and Yugekotsu were fighting in a world where the sky was collapsing and the earth was collapsing, but the mountains and rivers remained the same, the great monsters led by Kyōkotsu, who had gone mad because Yugekotsu was forcibly taken away, confronted the Nura clan and the Onmyoji of the Hanakaiin clan, who had followed Sakurai’s footsteps and arrived one step late.

A evenly matched fight broke out between the two sides.

Just as the battle was about to reach its climax, a ripple slowly emerged in the sky.

The sky cracked like a broken mirror, and then a young man and woman fell out of it.

The man’s face was cold, but full of determination and resoluteness, while the woman’s face was filled with fear and anger. She desperately ordered the nine tails behind her to abandon all defenses and attack the man.

The man remained unmoved. A scarlet dagger, with the whistling wind and the cold Yishui River, pierced her heart with the determination of the warrior who would never return.

Seeing these two people, all the people (monsters) present showed extremely shocked expressions.

The only difference is that Onmyoji and Nura group are delighted, while the big monsters under Yuyuko show extremely horrified murderous intent.

“sister.”

Desperately trying to get rid of the young man with dead eyes and a helpless look on his face, Kuang Gu pounced desperately on Sakurai and Yuyuko.

Then he was intercepted by the young man who came forward again.

Although he may not be as good at fighting as his friends, his friends would laugh at him if he ran away from the enemy in front of them.

Especially the captain with an overly bad temper, who would laugh heartily with glee while forcing himself to practice more.

The dead-eyed boy didn’t want to see this happen at all.

The moment they returned to the real world, Sakurai and Yuyuko looked around.

Then Sakurai was the first to breathe a sigh of relief. It was not as bad as he had expected.

It’s great that the monsters under Yuyuko were stopped before they could start a killing spree.

If allowing Yuyuko to return to the real world would have had a greater impact, Sakurai would have unlocked the Heaven Collapses and the Earth Shatters, but the Mountains and Rivers Remain the Same the moment he dragged Yuyuko into the duel.

Similarly, Yuyuko was also laughing.

She finally left that damn world and returned to reality.

“Do you think this level of injury can kill me?”

“monster.”

Staring at Sakurai intently, revealing an extremely terrifying smile, the feathered fox also grinned grimly, piercing Sakurai’s heart.

“I should be the one saying this. Your attack is ineffective, big fox.”

For Sakurai, trading injuries for injuries is always a win-win for him.

However, there is one thing that Sakurai is very concerned about.

That’s why Yuyuko was hurt by herself on purpose.

Even as a reincarnated youkai, the wound through the chest should be fatal to Yuyuko.

Why on earth did she deliberately give herself the opportunity to reveal that flaw at that time?

You know, there is only one condition for the collapse of heaven and earth and the collapse of mountains and rivers to be lifted, and that is that one of the two parties in the battle is dead, so the Yuyuko just now was indeed [died] under his own attack.

“Monster, are you confused?”

“It seems that your ability to predict the future is not without limitations.”

“You can’t read the future without me killing you, right?”

“The taboo of eating the flesh of [item] and [merman].”

At this point, Yuyuko, who is an immortal after all, certainly must know Sakurai’s origins.

so…

Just now, she deliberately didn’t kill Sakurai.

Smiling triumphantly, Yuyuko collected all the broken weapons into its tail.

Then the body slowly rose into the air and floated in the air.

With her beautiful face and superior aura, she is undoubtedly a great beauty in everyone’s eyes.

“Returning to the real world itself is enough for me to make such a decision.”

“You may not know this, but for the Hundred Ghosts like me who drink the Demonic Wine together, the presence of our companions is strength.”

Declaring in a condescending manner, Yuyuko raised her noble head and stopped looking at Sakurai.

She admitted that the monster Sakurai was a tough enemy, but…

It’s definitely not unbeatable.

This confidence was given to her by Kuang Gu, Kidomaru, and all the great monsters present.

“My servants, obey my command. The darkness is ahead, the enemy is ahead. Join me and crush the enemy!!!”
