Curse Returns, a gamble from the start, I awaken dual spells

Chapter 150, Level 2

"Rito, over here!"

Rito suddenly turned his head and saw Hitomi standing on the rooftop at the end of the street.

"I found it! The entrance to the second checkpoint!" Hitomi's voice was tinged with anxiety.

Li Ren's heart skipped a beat.

He looked at Itadori and Fushiguro Megumi.

Herashi's right arm hung limply at his side, Fushiguro's face was as pale as paper, and there was still blood on the corner of his mouth.

If they continue fighting, they will surely die.

"Itadaki! Fukuro! Go!" Rito shouted, pushing off backward and rushing in the direction Hitomi indicated.

Itachi almost reflexively followed his movements, grabbed Fushiguro Megumi who was buried in the bricks and stones, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and ran after Rito's back.

"Wait...that guy!" Itajō called out as he ran, turning back to shout.

Fuheshchen followed closely behind.

With each step, it was as if the distance between them had been reduced to an inch, instantly closing the gap between them.

"He's catching up!" Fushiguro Megumi said weakly, leaning on Itadori's shoulder.

Rito gritted his teeth and quickly formed hand seals.

"Zero coffin——disintegration!!"

Ignoring the depletion of his cursed spirit, Rito unleashed this extremely destructive move.

However, Fuheshner simply shifted his position slightly and easily dodged it.

Fortunately, he paused for half a second, which was enough!

Rito and Itachi took the opportunity to turn a street corner and rush into the narrow alley leading to the parking lot.

"Where's the entrance?" Itachi asked, panting heavily, sweat mixed with blood dripping onto the ground.

"Ahead!" Tong's voice came from above. She was moving quickly on the eaves of the building, pointing the way for them.

"That blue roller shutter door, that's it!"

Rito looked in the direction she indicated.

At the end of the alley, a dark blue roller shutter door was emitting a faint golden glow.

The light displayed a certain regular pattern, like part of a sealing technique.

"This is it!"

Rito quickened his pace, channeling his inner power of magic to its fullest extent. With each step he took, a shallow crack appeared in the asphalt.

Twenty meters.

Fifteen meters.

ten meters.

Just as they were about to rush to the roller shutter door.

boom!

A dark shadow fell from the sky and crashed onto the ground in front of them, scattering rubble everywhere.

Fuheshchener stood in front of the golden roller shutter door and slowly straightened up.

A playful smile played on his lips, his gaze fixed on prey already caught in his net.

Li Ren's heart sank to the bottom.

He stood less than five meters away from Fuhesh, and could even feel the suffocating sense of oppression.

The alley behind them was narrow and cramped, with high walls on both sides, leaving them nowhere to retreat.

Ahead lies Fuheishen'er.

"Riri--" Itadori put Fushiguro Megumi down, clenched his fists, leaned forward slightly, and prepared for a desperate fight.

"You guys go in first." Rito's voice was deep, carrying an undeniable firmness. "I'll hold him off."

"What nonsense are you talking about! How could a person possibly..." Itachi blurted out.

"I'll be fine. After you go in, I'll find a way to get out." Rihito interrupted him, looking directly at Fukushiro.

Itadori opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but when he saw Rito's eyes, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He gritted his teeth, grabbed Fu Hei Hui, and rushed toward the golden roller shutter door.

Fuheshchen glanced at it, raised his right hand, and prepared to intercept.

But just as he was about to make his move, Rito's figure appeared beside him like a ghost, a ball of gray cursed power gathering in his right palm, aimed straight at his chest.

"Your opponent is me."

Fukushiro's pupils contracted slightly, seemingly surprised by Rito's speed.

He abandoned his attempt to intercept, sidestepped Rito's attack, and simultaneously countered with his right elbow, striking Rito's ribs.

The person in charge did not directly confront the situation.

His body twisted in an extremely unnatural posture to avoid the core impact of the elbow strike.

But he was still grazed to the side, and he fell two steps to his knees.

But in just those two steps, Itadori and Fushiguro Megumi had already reached the rolling shutter door.

With one hand pressed against the roller shutter, the pale golden light suddenly expanded as if ignited, engulfing the two figures.

The next second, their figures disappeared in the light, leaving only the residual magical energy fluctuations in the air.

"They're inside—" Li Ren felt a sense of relief, but he dared not relax in the slightest.

Fuhesh'er's gaze shifted from the golden roller shutter door back to Rihito.

This was the first time Rito had observed this face so closely.

A powerful profile, sharp eyes, and an arrogance etched into his very bones.

But all that remains is a puppet controlled by spirit possession, a machine that only knows how to kill, not the real Shen'er.

Rito took a deep breath, and the cursed power within his body began to operate at its maximum frequency.

He knew he couldn't defeat the man in front of him; his goal was to stall for time and then find an opportunity to rush in.

Fuheishen moved.

Without any warning, his figure vanished from the spot.

Rito instinctively rolled to the left, a gust of wind from a punch grazing his back and slamming into the wall behind him.

boom!

The entire wall cracked and collapsed, with bricks and stones falling like raindrops.

Ignoring his disheveled state, Rito rolled on the ground and then got up, his hands forming hand seals so fast that they were just afterimages.

The next second, the rubble and dust on the ground instantly condensed into countless tiny ice spikes, shooting towards Fuheshen'er like a rainstorm.

But Fuhesh didn't even dodge; he simply raised his arm to protect his face, letting the ice spikes hit his body.

The sound of ice spikes shattering was continuous, yet it didn't even break his skin.

Rito gritted his teeth, took a sharp step back, and rushed towards the golden roller shutter door.

He only has one chance.

Fuheshen shattered the ice beneath his feet and chased after him like a cannonball.

He was too fast; he had only gone five meters when that suffocating pressure was already pressing against the back of his neck.

Li Ren didn't turn around. He stomped his left foot hard on the ground and slammed his right elbow backward.

boom!

The elbow struck Fukushiro's fist, and the force of the recoil caused Rito's right arm to instantly lose sensation.

But using that force, he rolled forward and lunged directly at the golden roller shutter door.

Golden light exploded before my eyes.

Rito felt as if his body was being grabbed by an invisible hand and then suddenly pulled in a certain direction.

The scene before them began to distort and spin, and Fuhesh'er's figure became blurred in the golden light before finally disappearing completely.

The feeling of weightlessness lasted for about three seconds.

Then, Rito's foot stepped on something soft.

He opened his eyes and stood there stunned for a moment.

The sun shines brightly, a gentle sea breeze blows, and a vast blue sea unfolds before your eyes.

The white sand beach stretches into the distance, and the waves gently lap against the shore, making a soothing sound.

Li Ren looked around blankly.

Blue sky, white clouds, sea and sand.

"Where...am I?"
