The person was chanting a curse, but their hands were wielding the black magic.

What brought tears to my eyes was not just the wine from last night.

But -

"Brotherly love!"

Amidst the scorched ruins, Shi Liulong unleashed a soul-rending roar towards the gloomy sky.

"Don't get in my way while I'm saving my brother, you utterly unsweet woman!"

boom!

The blazing white spell energy, accompanied by the roar of the Stone Flow Dragon filled with all its will, tore through the air once more.

It rushed straight towards the domain barrier that trapped Fu Hei and Lu Ziyun in the distance!

However, the heron hovering in the air merely raised its hand indifferently.

The sky was instantly folded up like paper, presenting angles and layers that defied common sense.

The moment it touched that strange plane, the trajectory of the cursed beam inexplicably deviated.

It whistled and veered towards the distant ruins that were completely unrelated to it, kicking up a cloud of dust that didn't even touch the edge of the area.

"No matter how many times you come, it's useless!"

The heron's voice began to sound weary.

They were unable to make any breakthrough for a long time, and couldn't even get close to the field.

Shi Liulong looked troubled.

Even Fukuro, who was in the same field as his brother, showed a troubled expression.

You said you're a bit hard to pursue~

Every swing of the demon-slaying sword carries the will to crush everything.

Fortunately, the limited height of the dome of this courthouse just happened to restrict the demon's movement.

Its massive body appeared bulky and sluggish as it moved within this relatively low space.

Instead, it gave Fu Hei and his two companions a chance to catch their breath.

Swish!

The demon-slaying sword once again pierced through from a tricky and unpredictable angle, precisely locking onto Fu Hei, whose body had lost the power of the curse and whose physical reactions had been reduced to the level of a mortal.

They pinpointed his weak, vulnerable spot.

This sword strike sealed off all of Fu's escape routes!

"Watch out, Fukuro!"

Just before the sword tip touched her body, Lu Ziyun pounced from the side.

laugh!

The dull thud of a sharp blade cutting through flesh was particularly jarring in the deathly silent courtroom.

The blade of the demon-slaying sword narrowly grazed Fu Hei's ribs, leaving a trail of blood.

However, a deep, horrific laceration, exposing bone, was left solidly on Lu Ziyun's left lower abdomen!

Large gushes of warm blood gushed from the wound, staining his tattered white clothes and the cold ground beneath him.

"No, deer!!!"

Fu Hei scrambled to Lu Ziyun's side, his trembling hands futilely trying to cover the horrific wound.

But all they could feel was life rapidly slipping away with the blood.

The palpitations and panic caused by his brother's near death climbed into his bones.

My soul trembled!

Even outside the domain, Shi Liulong could sense that the auras of Fu Hei and Lu Zi within the domain were rapidly dimming, like candles flickering in the wind!

There's no time! It has to be now! Immediately!

Who lacked the power to save their brother?

It's you, Shi Liulong!

Are you content with the status quo?

Stone Flow Dragon!

Are we going to let our brothers die helplessly?

Stone Flow Dragon!

"brother……"

Only Shi Liulong remained amidst the ruins, suppressing his sobs.

He slowly lowered his head, his eyes fixed on his fists, which were covered in dust and blood, yet now seemed so powerless.

His magical power surged as if some kind of shackle had been broken!

"?!"

The black egret, hovering in the air, stared intently at the stone dragon below, whose aura had suddenly surged and who seemed completely different, his eyes filled with confusion and wariness.

"What did this guy just do?"

"I've been suppressing it the whole time, so why did the curse power erupt instead?!"

This sudden surge of terrifying magical power sent a chill down Wu Lu's spine, even though he was usually calm and collected.

"Was some kind of constraint imposed?"

In an instant, the black heron frantically stretched, folded, and superimposed the plane of a large area around it, setting up layers upon layers of intricate and complex distorted spatial defenses in front of it, ready for battle.

The blindingly white magical power was compressed wildly within the Stone Flow Dragon's thunderous hairstyle, forming a terrifying sphere of light that was larger and more violently fluctuating than ever before!

"Ice Smoothie Shockwave!!!"

The shockwave that Shi Liulong had been gathering power for a long time was unleashed with tremendous force!

"It's that trick again."

"It's no use no matter how many times you come!"

The egret, annoyed, tore up the flat surface again.

"Hmph, is that so?"

Shi Liulong smiled slightly.

Just before the thick beam of magical energy was about to touch the distorted space, it appeared without warning.

A sudden split!

It split into two, then into four, then into eight... In the blink of an eye, the thick beam of light exploded into dozens or even hundreds of split rays.

Reflecting from various bizarre and tricky angles, it even penetrated the frontal spatial barrier that Uruhiro had heavily fortified.

They indiscriminately covered the vast airspace behind her, and the outer shell of the domain further behind, shooting out in a dense barrage!

It's a split cannon.

"Come on, let's see how much you can intercept!"

Shi Liulong laughed wildly on the ruins, his eyes bloodshot with excitement and madness.

"Damn it!"

Wu Lu's expression changed drastically, and he could no longer maintain his previous composure.

He pushed the [Sky] spell to its limit, wildly waving and pulling his hands in the air!

Vast expanses of the sky were forcibly distorted and folded, attempting to construct an interception net covering the entire space.

The vast majority of the splitting rays were deflected by this hastily constructed yet terrifyingly defensive spatial net.

The blazing white energy collided and exploded repeatedly with the distorted space.

Chaotic and deadly energy fireworks burst forth in the sky.

Wu Lu was panting heavily, her forehead covered in cold sweat, and her slender body trembled slightly from the intense operation of the technique.

But she ultimately managed to block this unexpected split attack.

"Ha, nothing special."

The heron, panting heavily, managed a tired and disdainful sneer, confident of victory.

"Woman, surely you don't understand?"

A chillingly calm voice came from below her.

"So-called brothers."

"It's a resonance of souls!"

"What?" An extremely ominous premonition instantly gripped Wu Lu's heart.

Those few spell-split rays, seemingly completely off target and about to strike the distant ruins.

In the latter half of the flight, the trajectory became extremely strange, exhibiting two or even three subtle deflections and angular adjustments that defied the laws of physics!

They circled the vast sky, tracing incomprehensible arcs, and finally, without prior agreement—

It slammed into Shi Liulong's own back!

boom! boom! boom!

A solid, dull thud!

The blazing white curse power exploded on Shi Liulong's back, instantly vaporizing his tattered clothes.

"Uh..."

Shi Liulong let out an extremely excited roar, his whole body under the terrifying impact that was cleverly guided.

Like a cannonball being launched, his feet left the ground, and he flew backward at a terrifying speed far exceeding his own running limit!

The egret also noticed something was wrong.

The direction in which Shi Liulong flew backward was clearly that he was approaching the area.

"The split-cannon is just a smokescreen to mislead you!"

"The real purpose is to let me ride the cannon's impact and get closer to the domain!"

"This is my attack route, Uru!"

Wu Lu wanted to stop him, trying to use a spell to stretch space and slow him down, but the energy she had just used to defend against the split cannon made her move a beat slower.

Moreover, Shi Liulong's speed at this moment is too fast.

"Oh no, it's too late!"

Wu Lu could only watch helplessly as Shi Liulong's figure crashed into the outer shell of the domain at a speed far exceeding his own.

Then—

A powerful elbow strike!!!

A terrifying roar, as if the earth were shaking and mountains were moving, suddenly erupted!

Within the territory, a crumbling courtroom.

The demon-slaying sword was raised high above his head, its destructive energy compressed to its limit.

Just as the sword was about to strike, the entire dome of the courtroom shattered instantly!

The realistic gray-white light from the Tokyo barrier outside surged wildly in through the breach, pouring down!

It instantly dispelled the despair that permeated the courtroom.

It rained down on Fukuro Megumi, Hiromi Hichiro, and the heavily injured Lu Ziyun.

If the sunlight breaks through the clouds!

The realm is shattered, and all sins and punishments return to their original state.

A surge of power, both overwhelming and familiar, yet bringing tears to my eyes, returned to Fu Hei's body with a thunderous roar!

The Heavenly Reverse Blade fell from the sky and was steadily held in Fu Hei's hand.

It clashed with the demon-slaying sword that slashed down repeatedly.

clang!

This powerful blow couldn't shake Fu Hei in the slightest. He simply calmly raised the Heavenly Reversal Blade in his hand and casually held it horizontally above his head.

On the contrary, under the reaction force of this final confrontation, Mo Xuluo's figure gradually became illusory and transparent.

The successive attacks ultimately proved futile, like phantoms baring their fangs and claws.

Finally, in a roar filled with resentment and confusion.

The pale, twisted, enormous body of Demon Void Luo was completely transformed into countless pale specks of light, slowly dissipating into the air of the ruins that had returned to normal.

The Demon Void has once again ended its short life.

Wait, why did I say "again"?

"Zenka!"

The light of the Giant Deer Shikigami fell, and together with the reversal of Deer Purple Cloud's own body, it instantly twisted the blurred flesh and blood into knotted muscles.

With the realm completely shattered, the outside world was fully revealed.

Fu Hei and Lu Ziyun supported each other and saw a figure not far away on the ruins, kneeling on one knee with his back to them, his back charred and bloody, yet still standing straight.

"Debris flow..."

As the domain shattered, Shi Liulong's figure also fell heavily to the ground.

They trembled as they supported Shi Liulong's swaying body from the left and right.

"Shi Liu...you bastard..." Fu Hei's voice choked, and he could no longer speak.

"Zenka!"

Without hesitation, Fuhei immediately summoned the white giant deer, a symbol of life and healing.

The gentle, pure energy of the Reversal Technique flowed out, quickly covering the hideous, charred wound on Shi Liulong's back.

It slowly repairs the damaged internal organs and body.

Shi Liulong let out a muffled groan, his pale face slightly relieved, but he was clearly no longer able to fight.

Almost at the same time that Yuanlu appeared, Lu Ziyun saw a burst of purple lightning in her eyes! The pent-up frustration and anger that had been suppressed for so long erupted completely the moment her power returned!

He gave Riche, who had just struggled to his feet from the backlash of the domain and was still somewhat dazed, no chance to react.

His figure transformed into a streak of purple lightning, delivering a simple yet thunderous jab that landed squarely on the sun chariot's abdomen!

Your Uncle Lu Ziyun has learned how to finish off enemies.

"Well!"

Riche's eyes bulged out, and the newly returned curse power hadn't even had time to be activated to protect his body.

He was sent flying backward by the punch containing the power of lightning, crashing heavily into a pile of rubble behind him. Dust flew everywhere, and after struggling for a couple of moments, he completely lost consciousness.

In an instant, the battlefield situation changed again.

"I think I just heard someone questioning the bond between the three of us!"

The Tokyo Twin Towers stand side by side, perched atop the ruins.
