Curse Return: Swordsmith Start

Chapter 204 The Results That Caused Suffering for Everyone

After all, once a domain is activated, the spellcaster's own spell cannot be used a second time.

Strengths can be weaknesses, and this shouldn't be happening to Gojo Satoru.

Unfortunately, the person who was using magic power, fighting spirit to strengthen his body, and simultaneously expanding his domain at this moment was that kind of person.

Seeing that Gojo Satoru had dodged, Yue Ren casually unleashed several more light blades. These attacks, which were extremely fast and powerful, left Gojo Satoru helpless for a moment, forcing him to rely on his superhuman abilities to evade them.

Thus, the situation took a dramatic turn. What should have been a situation where Gojo Satoru, who had opened up the domain, completely dominated the field, was instead turned into an embarrassing situation where he was treated like prey and toyed with by the Yue people.

Those watching from the sidelines were completely dumbfounded.

Huzhang's mouth was agape, his jaw almost falling to the ground.

After all, the scene before them, with the light cannon chasing and bombarding the teacher within the domain, was rather surreal. And that was within the domain, wasn't it a bit too outrageous?

Two years later, he is no longer the naive boy who was accidentally drawn into the world of magic.

When Yue Ren returned, he had initially intended to show off his achievements, but now it seemed unnecessary.

"Fu Hei." His voice was a little hoarse.

"Um.

""

Did you see that?

'

"I saw it."

"Isn't Senior Yue a little too strong?"

Fuhei did not answer, because he did not know how to answer.

The strongest offensive mage he had ever seen was Senior Libra, but even Senior Libra's attack frequency wasn't this exaggerated.

Teacher Gojo's casual attacks are the strongest blows of an ordinary mage, while Senior Koshito's casual attacks are now as powerful as the strongest blows of a special-grade mage.

When did his magical power reach this level? Won't this kind of consumption lead to a state of exhaustion in his magical power?

The way the two people in front of him were fighting was completely beyond his understanding of combat.

Just like being a soldier, if the opponent is also a soldier, you can choose tactics, combat intelligence, etc. to increase the probability of winning. But if the opponent is a nuclear bomb that can instantly turn you into a molecule, all those efforts are meaningless, right?

What is now unfolding before these sorcerers is undoubtedly a battle of gods, allowing these newcomers to clearly see just how outrageous the true powerhouses of this world can be.

Although both are sorcerers, they are fundamentally different beings.

Kugizaki stood to the side, a small notebook that had appeared in his hand at some point, and he was frantically writing something down.

Tiger Wand leaned over and took a look, only to find that she had written the same sentence in her notebook several times over—"Never mess with Senior Yue Ren." Tiger Wand was quite speechless.

Maki pushed up her glasses, and the white figure inside the barrier was reflected in the lenses.

He didn't say anything, he just stared intently at the figure.

"Seaweed." Dog-Turtle's voice was low, with a sense of awe that even he himself didn't realize.

In the live stream room of Mechanical Maru, the chat was already going crazy with comments.

"Are you kidding me?"

"Is this really something a human could do?"

"Is this really a live stream? Are you sure it's not some kind of special effect...?"

'

"It's not a spell, it's magic—magic and swordsmanship from another world!"

"??? What are you talking about, you joking?"

'

""

Nanami Kento sat in his office, hands in his pockets, eyes glued to his phone screen, looking more tired than usual.

He was worried about the potential consequences of the battle.

The strongest fighting force was suddenly exposed to the world, and the impact of the situation they had to face was definitely not small. Oh no, just thinking about having to work overtime again made it impossible for him to feel any respect for those two people.

When there's no real threat, those two are the biggest threat.

He's already starting to miss Senior Mingming... How come he can't bring himself to make a clean break... Is this the punishment for being soft-hearted?

Silently open the private chat.

"Is there any budget left this quarter to cover the losses from this event?"

"7

Night Moth Masamichi was watching the battle with a dark expression, and his face darkened even more after seeing the message on his phone.

"Those two bastards."

Inside the barrier.

Upon realizing that the new domain was ineffective against the Yue people and would instead put him at a disadvantage, Gojo Satoru decisively ended the domain and switched to using a technique to counterattack.

"No limit" can reduce the damage of "Light Katana", so why isn't it completely ineffective? Gojo Satoru wasn't sure for a moment. He had suspected that it might be because the sword of the person he was talking about had been given the "anti-magic" property again.

But that doesn't make sense, because even to break a demon, the weapon has to actually come into contact with it.

Furthermore, if it truly is about breaking the demon, why not directly eliminate the "no limits" on him instead of weakening his attack power? However, now is not the time to ponder such questions.

By skillfully employing the two powers of "Cang" and "He", they barely managed to withstand the Yue people's fierce and relentless attacks.

As the saying goes, all fear stems from insufficient firepower. Faced with this missile barrage, there really wasn't a good way to defend against it for the time being.

At this moment, Gojo Satoru's first thought was to wage a war of attrition. After all, according to common sense, an attack of this level would consume a huge amount of resources and should not be able to last. However, after seeing Yue Ren's calm and composed expression, Gojo Satoru abandoned this idea.

Through the analysis of "Six Eyes" and the explanation of Yue Ren, he roughly understood that this move, which looked like an energy bombardment, was probably just a sword technique that simply consumed physical strength.

That fleeting flash of light was merely an illusion caused by the excessive speed of the sword strike.

Therefore, the idea of ​​changing the course of the battle by consuming "cursed power" is not feasible.

After all, even though Yue Ren's weakness of lacking spell power, which he showed two years ago, was still there, he had never seen him lack physical strength.

Tch, if the defense is no good, then let's find an opportunity to attack!

The best defense is a good offense. In this situation, if we don't find a way to break the deadlock, we will eventually be worn down.

Fortunately, he still had some trump cards up his sleeve.

After releasing another "Hercules" ball with a diameter of over one meter to buy time, he clasped his hands together.

This move caused Fushiguro Megumi's pupils to contract sharply. He had seen this starting stance before in Shibuya, when Gojo Satoru used it to unleash the devastating attack that nearly destroyed the entire battlefield against Sukuna.

"this".

"Wait! Has Gojo-sensei gone mad?!"

Fu Hei instinctively shouted out, "With this move, can that barrier defend against it?"

Gojo Satoru did not answer, but the power he was gathering in He Qian's palm was rising wildly.

A tiny purple dot of light then began to spread, and the density of the cursed power it contained caused the air inside the entire barrier to tremble.

It's not an exaggeration; fine ripples truly began to appear on the energy wall of the trembling barrier, like a lake being struck by a pebble.

The Yue people looked at the purple energy ball with a mocking expression.

"Teacher, you seem to have said that we shouldn't use 'this'."

"That's right, I didn't say it was 'this'."

These words startled the Yue people slightly.

Not "this"?

After switching to his magic eyes, Yue Ren observed again and it seemed that it was indeed as he had said. It wasn't that thing at all, although it was very close, but it really wasn't.

Is this "Azure"?

"Since you've shown me so much growth," then it's time for me to open your eyes too. Let me give you a heads-up.

"The Ultimate Number," you should understand.

"I see, hehe, I didn't expect you to be interested in this too."

"If it were before that great battle, it wouldn't be necessary, but didn't we already see Sukuna, and you too?"

Gojo Satoru's expression was flamboyant; he was now completely in a state of excitement, and his "six eyes" had become brighter than ever before.

Yes, it was all because he saw a "wider world" and a "more powerful" enemy.

As the strongest, when he is invincible in the world, it is in a sense his most vulnerable moment, because losing an enemy often means losing the motivation to become stronger.

The reason why he was tricked in the original work is largely due to this.

However, because of the existence of Yue Ren, Gojo Satoru did not die, and as the strongest genius of this era, he naturally did not reach his true limit.

After experiencing a series of evenly matched battles and witnessing new heights, he discovered...

His true nature is that of a "warrior," a warrior who yearns to forever challenge the strongest.

So, after the great battle, his heart, which had been quiet because those around him could not keep up, was completely ignited by this change.

He returned to that period, the time after the Astral Event, the time of exploring how to become stronger.

What he needs to show now is the results of his efforts over this period of time.

Now, he is finding new enjoyment in the words of this student who has surprised him from beginning to end.

A new world, or perhaps the world of the past.

Hahaha, what could be more interesting to him than this news?

He's already starting to look forward to it.

In response to his will, he pushed out the "Extreme Strike" - "Azure" - "Phase Collapse" that had turned colorless in his hand.

The effect is simple: Gojo Satoru's technique, which rotates in the direction of "Azure," essentially transforms incantation power into a gravitational singularity, attracting everything around it.

Gojo Satoru, on the other hand, abandoned all other fancy effects and simply enhanced gravity.

Although in this regard we have to thank another master mage, Yuki Tsukumo, for his help and guidance.

But in any case, he succeeded.

They pushed this sphere, whose gravity was comparable to that of a black hole and could influence space, toward the Yue people.

The terrifying gravity caused everything around to crumble at the slightest touch, like severely weathered plaster. The protective barrier around them emitted a sound similar to shattering glass, clearly already at its limit in the face of such an impact.

As the one being called upon, the Yue people left two deep scratches under their feet, barely managing to steady themselves with all their might.

This is an extremely dangerous power. Although it can only exist for a short time, like certain forbidden powers, its appearance would be a disaster for the world itself.

The longest Gojo Satoru ever managed to sustain it was ten seconds, and as a result, an overseas island the size of a large city disappeared from the map.

Therefore, this extreme situation is extremely dangerous.

This was a power he wouldn't normally study; it was too dangerous and unnecessary.

But now it has a stage where it can shine.

Gojo Satoru was certain that even with such power, Yue Ren could handle it, because Yue Ren was his prized disciple, a genius just like himself.

Yue Ren had no idea what Gojo Satoru was thinking at that moment. If he had known, he might have slowly typed out a question mark.

In any case, faced with such a crisis, the Yue people took action.

Faced with something that was almost impossible to defend against, he undoubtedly chose to take the initiative.

He gripped the sword in his right hand, and the white light of his battle aura solidified to the extreme on his fist, forming a crystalline outer shell.

His left hand swept across the blade, condensing three orbs of light of different colors in the process—red flames, cyan wind, and golden lightning. The three orbs spun rapidly on the blade, emitting a buzzing sound.

The three different magical energies reacted violently the moment they merged, unleashing a visible energy storm.

He used his fighting spirit to forcefully suppress the rampaging energy, and then unleashed a final sword strike that combined swordsmanship, fighting spirit, and magic.

A single sword strike that achieves the effect of a city-wide light cannon.

Although it resembles a black hole, it is essentially constructed from cursed power. In that case, it can be annihilated using the same, or even more advanced, energy. Coincidentally, the magic power of the Yue people, as a product of sublimation, is naturally able to devour and suppress cursed power.

Swordsmanship alone cannot reach the core of that thing, because there is not enough energy to counteract it. However, it is different when combined with a massive amount of magic power.

Just like adding fuel to a rocket, the effect is definitely more than just one plus one.

Wherever the beam of light passed, space itself seemed to groan, and the energy walls of the barrier were scraped by the overflowing energy, emitting sharp cracking sounds.

The four-color energy beam cannon and the black sphere collided in mid-air.

No sound.

It wasn't that the sound was too faint to hear; there was absolutely no sound. It was as if something had sucked away all the sounds around the point of impact, even erasing the vibrations of the air.

Then, the light came.

The spectrum, which humans cannot analyze with their retina, filled every inch of space inside the barrier.

It is similar to the gamma-ray level radiation shock after energy annihilation, with a temperature so high that even light itself seems to be burning, and it can partially ignore physical and energy barriers.

The energy barrier trembled violently under the impact, and the blue light on its surface rapidly thinned, like a bubble being constantly inflated, ready to burst at any moment.

Those outside the arena instinctively closed their eyes, but even so, the light still pierced their eyelids, leaving a brief burning sensation on their retinas.

Some people screamed and backed away, while others lay down on the ground, and the scene descended into chaos.

The moth's roar echoed through the white light: "Everyone retreat! All teachers, reinforce the barrier!!"

The incantation of Dog Roll, the energy shield released by the robots sent out by Mechanical Maru, and the defensive measures of the other teachers.

Seven or eight layers of defensive barriers of different natures were constructed in just a few seconds, completely surrounding the training ground.
