Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

She quickly ran to Gunia's side and activated the Palm Healing Technique.

Gonia didn't lose her severed limbs because the greatswords could reattach the severed limbs to the body by releasing demonic energy.

It just takes time.

Nohara Rin's Palm Healing Technique can quickly repair cells, restoring her severed limbs in an instant.

"Thank you."

Gunia expressed her sincere gratitude.

Then, seeing Tanjiro's calf pierced by the blood-robed Taoist in an instant, he rushed to his aid.

Several heavy slashes fell, forcing the blood-robed Taoist to retreat repeatedly.

"I will refine you into the most perfect demon zombie."

The blood-robed Taoist licked his lips.

While they were being driven back, they were about to grab a white-haired zombie and throw it into the giant mouth in the chest.

boom.

Who knew that the white-haired zombie he had captured would suddenly burst out of smoke and transform into the appearance of Nohara Rin.

A sharp kunai, catching him completely off guard, severed the tongue inside the gaping maw of his chest.

"what……"

A painful scream.

The blood-robed Taoist was utterly enraged, and he transformed his chest into a gaping maw capable of devouring zombies.

The resources consumed are incalculable.

He slaughtered five towns to gather enough suitable materials, only to be injured by a swarm of ants.

Unforgivable.

Do you like to dance, children?

The Taoist in the blood-red robe twisted his body and pulled a copper bell out of his pocket.

Clang.

The crisp sound of bells spread.

One by one, white-haired zombies began to dance to the sound of bells, and started to devour each other in a frenzy.

Finally, they merged to form two gigantic zombies, their bodies entirely crimson, their muscles bulging, and resembling mountains.

【Mighty Zombie Lv.12 (Commander)】

The blood-robed Taoist was a lord himself.

They barely managed to hold on with the strength of the entire team, and now there are two leaders at the same time. If they want to survive, they have no choice but to turn around and run.

Kuina's lips curled into a helpless expression as she whispered, "There's no way to escape. The surroundings seem to be covered by illusions, and we can't get out at all."

She had just settled the villagers who had been sacrificed to prevent the evil corpse from being conceived.

The result was that it felt like we were standing still, shrouded in mist everywhere, unable to escape this graveyard.

"How does it feel to be trapped in a maze?"

The blood-robed Taoist stood on the shoulder of a giant zombie, his eyes coldly fixed on the crowd below.

He set up a formation over the entire cemetery.

With the two vengeful spirits as the core of the formation, the [Mist Ghost Formation] they set up would be difficult for even a Taoist of the same level to break easily.

"One-Sword Style, Steel Slash!"

Kuina drew her sword and leaped into the air.

The blade, whipping with a slight whirlwind, sliced ​​through the giant zombie's shoulder, but was caught by its incredibly dense muscles.

This move was her strongest technique, which she had painstakingly practiced before falling down the stairs, and was designed to cut through steel.

That is,

The two zombies in front of them had bodies as strong as steel.

The giant zombie stretched out its hand and was about to grab Kuina, its immense strength capable of crushing the mass of flesh and blood.

Kuina pushed off with both feet, using the momentum to draw the blade and land steadily on the ground.

【Blood-Robed Taoist Lv.17 (Lord)】, 4700/5000 HP

Seeing that the enemy's health remained unchanged...

Everyone felt a sense of despair.

Nohara Rin frowned, her face full of worry, and whispered, "Hasn't Master Yimei arrived yet?"

"Sister, I will never give up!"

Tanjiro's eyes were resolute, and his fists were clenched tightly.

Even when facing an invincible foe, he would not give up, constantly reviewing the sword techniques taught by his teacher in his mind.

"I will not die. I have not resurrected Teresa yet. I want to see her smile one more time..."

Gunia clenched her teeth, as if making a decision.

Boom.

The demonic energy suddenly erupted, reaching 80%.

The Claymore organization has explicitly forbidden the release of demonic energy to its limit; once this value is reached, one can never transform back into a human.

Chapter 325 Uncle Nine

"Gunnya?"

Looking at Quinya, whose body was beginning to mutate into a demon, Nohara Rin had a bad feeling.

She was very clever and always remembered what Gunia had said: to avoid unleashing her demonic energy unless absolutely necessary.

That means that the eruption of demonic energy has strong side effects.

previously,

When Gunia unleashes her demonic energy, she communicates with them and asks them to cover for her.

But now, without saying a word, Gunia is continuously unleashing even stronger demonic energy than before, which means that this side effect has exceeded its limit and reached a point where communication with them is no longer necessary.

"Stop right now, Gunia..."

Nohara Rin quickly spoke up to stop her.

She activated her palm technique, pressing it tightly against Gunia's constantly stretched skin, and keenly sensed that the other's cells seemed to be changing.

This process cannot be reversed even by the Palm Healing Technique.

It's important to know that while the Palm Healing Technique is a universal remedy in the ninja world, capable of reviving even dead fish, it cannot prevent the side effects of demonic energy eruption.

In other words, Quinya may become a demon permanently.

The thought of this possibility caused Rin Nohara's pupils to tremble slightly.

She didn't want... even newly acquainted friends to make sacrifices in front of her.

"What should we do? What should we do?"

Just when everyone was at a loss,

Clang.

It's the same sound of bells, but it doesn't have an eerie feel. Instead, it's like the sun dispelling the fog, warming the heart.

Accompanied by the sound of a bell,

The cemetery, shrouded in mist, resembled a ripped sack with a crack through which light shone.

"It's him?"

Upon hearing the bell, the blood-robed Taoist's expression changed drastically.

Having lost his composure, he now controls two giant zombies and must eliminate everyone as quickly as possible.

boom.

Gunia blocked them, her sword pressed firmly against the two zombies' thick arms.

Having transformed into a demonic figure, Gonia let out a low growl: "I won't let you hurt my companions!"

aside,

Nohara Rin and the others rushed forward, using ninjutsu, breathing techniques, and pirate swordsmanship to cut through steel.

The blood-robed Taoist was firmly imprisoned in place.

stab.

Tanjiro turned his head to dodge the giant zombie's claws, but his forehead was still scratched by the long, narrow fingernails, leaving a hideous scar.

Clang.

The majestic bell rang a second time.

The formation was completely broken.

A figure dressed in a golden Taoist robe, carrying a peach wood sword and holding a Taoist bell, hurried towards the Ren family cemetery.

The figure flashed repeatedly in place, and in the blink of an eye, it had already leaped over half of the graveyard.

"Very well, once I've refined the evil corpse, that will be the day you all perish."

The blood-robed Taoist's gaze fell on Gunia, and he said with considerable resentment.

The giant zombie under his control lifted the coffin on the ground, creating a gust of cold wind, and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Side quest completed, reward issued.
