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

"I will absolutely not let you interrupt Lord Sukuna's resurrection!"

Rime's voice pierced the darkness; his obsession had seeped into his very bones, becoming the sole meaning of his existence.

The frost and wind spread outwards from him.

Wherever it passed, the moisture in the air instantly condensed into tiny ice crystals, shimmering with a faint white light in the darkness.

A thick layer of ice instantly condensed on the wall, spreading and thickening at a visible speed, clinging to the brick surface like a living thing, filling and sealing every crack.

The entire underground space was completely surrounded by frost, like a cage forged from ice, with no entrance and no exit.

Li Mei wanted to completely seal Lu Ziyun in this space, preventing him from transmitting information to Fu Hei and the others.

"Do you think you can stop us from passing messages like this?"

Despite being suppressed, Xiao Lu's fighting spirit never died out.

"Don't underestimate our bond!"

As if guided, the electric charge crossed the ice layer, bypassed obstacles, passed through the cracks frozen by the frost and wind, and pierced towards the other end of the underground space, traveling through the darkness like a messenger.

Whoops-

The electric charge continuously ionized, drawing a winding blue trajectory in the darkness, and finally returned to the Nue, which also possessed lightning properties.

"Little Deer has come to report!" Fu Hei announced loudly.

Shi Liulong quickly cooperated with Shen Er, suppressing Lu Suo once again, so that Fu Hei could take the time to decipher the information in the electric charge transmitted by Xiao Lu.

All attention was focused on the subtle electrical signal, its long and short frequencies, its regular rhythm, like a whisper.

It's Morse code!

Another masterpiece from Dr. Spellcaster.

Fu Hei carefully observed the frequencies, translating the signals word by word in his mind. His brows gradually relaxed, and finally he had a profound realization.

"Your plan is to use [Reincarnation] on the incarnation of Sukuna, right?"

"Lu Suo!"

Fu Hei's gaze was like two sharp swords, piercing through all pretense and disguise.

Wow, this box!

For the first time, Lu Suo felt the sensation of having his underwear completely stripped off in front of others.

Throughout his long and storied life, never before have schemes been dismantled so cleanly and efficiently.

Fu Hei clearly saw all the wavering.

"Looks like we need to finish this quickly!"

With sharp eyes, Lu Suo launched a final counterattack while being surrounded by the Elbow Technique Brothers.

"End the domain!"

The giant tree with the human skeleton collapsed instantly.

The branches formed from the power of the incantation broke, disintegrated, and vanished as if they had lost their support, turning into countless tiny specks of light that drifted into the air before disappearing completely.

Everything was plunged into darkness and taken over by the Shadow Tide.

The surging shadows, like a victorious tide, engulfed every inch of space.

However, Lu Suo, after being swallowed by the shadow tide, made no defense whatsoever, ignoring the shadows clinging to his body.

He didn't even glance at them, as if those shadows were nothing more than unimportant decorations.

"You think I didn't notice?"

"Your field has absolutely no guarantee of success!"

As expected of a seasoned schemer, such high strategic acumen.

They actually saw through Fu Hei's weakness.

"Now I can unleash my full power of spirit manipulation!"

Lu Suo instantly switched the spell power fluctuations, breaking free from the gravity spell that had become a shackle due to the melting.

Because it possesses two completely independent spells, the fusion after the domain did not have much impact on Lu Suo.

On the contrary, when Fu Hei can no longer support [Inlaid Dark Court] and his offensive breaks down, will Lu Suo turn the tables on him?

His magical power was being consumed at a visible rate. Although the surging shadow tides were powerful, the magical power required to maintain such a vast area was astronomical.

How long can Fuhei hold out? One minute? Five minutes? Or even less?

With the gravity tactic ineffective, Lu Suo can only pin his hopes for victory on his second-hand spell manipulation technique.

"Ganesha!"

A colossal figure emerged behind Lu Suo, like an ancient behemoth forcibly pulled from the void.

Its long nose swayed in the air.

Even Fuhei was somewhat wary of this conceptual-type special-grade cursed spirit.

Interference at the conceptual level is often more difficult to deal with than simple physical attacks.

However, Lu Suo showed no signs of stopping, and the fluctuations of the Cursed Spirit Manipulation Technique continued.

"The King of Evil Roads, Da Yue!"

Lu Suo continued to summon, and another figure appeared.

It is enormous, like a moving hill, and wields a giant axe. The blade of the axe gleams with a cold, sharp light in the darkness, as if it could cleave through any obstacle.

This was the very same top-tier cursed spirit that Gao Yu had shoveled up with a truckload.

It is precisely because he did not demonstrate his true strength in the main series that he became the only one who was misled by information gaps!

He didn't know what the cursed spirit's abilities were, its attack methods, its weaknesses, or its habits; everything was unknown.

"besides--"

Lu Suo's voice carried a cold laugh.

"Kuromu is dead!"

A third figure emerged from the shadows.

The compound eyes reflected a faint light in the darkness, emanating an aura that instinctively evoked disgust.

Due to the alteration of the Death Barrier, Hei Musi no longer needs to be automatically deployed to other battlefields by Lu Suo.

And now, they have become the three sharp blades against Fu Hei.

"You really underestimated me, Fukuro."

Lu Suo caught a fleeting look of astonishment in Fu Hei's eyes.

"Did you really think I had no backup plan?"

The simultaneous release of three top-tier cursed spirits instantly turned the tide of the battle.

"Now it's four against four."

Thousands upon thousands of cockroaches were the first to invade. The black swarms of insects poured out of Hei Musi's body, forming a curtain that blotted out the sky.

A black tide, roughly the size of Fuhei's domain, formed and rushed straight towards Fuhei and his companions.

"It's so noisy, all chattering away."

Stone Dragon frowned and kept firing spell cannons, trying to clear out the swarm of insects.

The blazing white beams of light exploded among the swarm of insects, clearing a blank area with each strike. The cockroaches that were hit turned to ashes in the light, leaving not even a trace.

But there were just too many cockroaches. The empty areas were almost instantly filled by the swarms of insects, as if they could never be killed, like a weed that could never be cut down.

The cockroach's curse power wasn't very strong; it was completely unharmed when it collided with the Stone Flow Dragon.

Strength, speed, and attack power are all insufficient to cause substantial damage to a sorcerer like Stone Dragon.

Their impact wasn't even enough to make the Stone Dragon retreat a single step.

But why did Lu Su choose this offensive strategy?

"Yes... Stone Flow Dragon, watch out for the ambush behind the swarm of cockroaches!"

Fu Hei's voice carried a sense of urgency, as if he had just suddenly realized something.

Before the words were even finished, the giant axe and the Rotten Life Blade were unleashed simultaneously, two beams of light suddenly slashing out from the cover of the swarm of insects, their target the Stone Flow Dragon's unguarded waist.

"I still prefer your defiant look from just now."

Lu Suo gently wiped the bloodstains from his face, regaining his composure as he sat at the chessboard.

"We will win..."

"it's me."

The sash evoked a fox-like smile.
