Chapter 359 Deadly Strike

With a gentle flip of the Yata no Kagami in Tamamo-no-Mae's hand, the figure of Shuten-dōji appeared prominently in the bright yellow ancient mirror.

Transposition!

Under the influence of the Yata Mirror, the space reflected in the mirror seemed to freeze, and the powerful spatial force directly sealed and imprisoned Shuten-dōji's body, freezing it like an ice block.

In a daze.

When Shuten-dōji came to his senses, he was shocked to find that he had switched places with Tamamo-no-Mae without even realizing it.

The terrifying chilling aura that was about to engulf Tamamo-no-Mae was now almost within reach of him.

At this moment, Shuten-dōji, who was still bound by a powerful spatial force, had no time to dodge and was hit squarely by that terrifying cold air that seemed to freeze the heavens and the earth.

"Yuki-onna!"

With a soul-shaking shout, Shuten-dōji's terrifying demonic body was instantly covered with white frost and ice crystals.

Although he was imprisoned by the Yata Mirror and his body was even frozen by the cold air released by the Yuki-onna, Shuten-dōji seemed to be in a very dangerous situation at first glance.

However, even though Shuten-dōji's eyes were covered with a layer of ice crystals, they still revealed an aura of domineering condescension.

Because this time, he wasn't alone.

Amidst Shuten-dōji's roar, a hazy figure appeared behind him in an instant, then a pale, snow-white, soft hand pressed against Shuten-dōji's tall demonic body.

However, contrary to Shuten-dōji's expectations, the Yuki-onna who appeared from the void was not his savior to relieve the terrifying cold, but instead knocked him down to hell.

【Ice-bound Coffin】

As the Snow Woman unleashed her power, a terrifying temperature, even colder than the previous breath and approaching absolute zero, instantly condensed into a massive ice coffin around Shuten-dōji.

Immediately afterward, under the icy gaze of the Snow Woman, the soft hand pressed against the ice coffin clenched tightly.

Instantly, Shuten-dōji, who was frozen in the ice coffin, felt a terrifying pressure that was enough to crush steel, crushing down on all parts of his body.

It was as if they wanted to bury him in this biting cold.

Upon noticing the Snow Woman's actions, two beams of light, almost tangible, suddenly shot out from the eyes of the frozen Shuten-dōji.

It seemed as if it was silently condemning the Snow Woman's betrayal.

Facing Shuten-dōji's angry glare, Yuki-onna smiled gently, like a kind older sister next door.

next second.

The crystal-clear ice coffin that had sealed Shuten-dōji in ice suddenly cracked inch by inch, shattering into countless ice blades that exuded endless chill.

Driven by an invisible force, the thousands of sharp blades suddenly stopped and shot towards Shuten-dōji's body.

He thrust his sword at Shuten-dōji, who was frozen in ice.

Rumble...

The thousands of ice blades shot out simultaneously, but it was like thousands of cannonballs firing at once, producing a continuous and violent roar.

The ground beneath Shuten-dōji's feet instantly shattered, turning into dust and then being compressed and compacted by the continuous roar. The ground, compressed to its limit, sank, forming a terrifying crater.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, dark red liquid, resembling gushing blood or boiling magma, spurted from the giant crater that had sunk several meters into the earth.

"Did it work?"

Tamamo-no-Mae's expression shifted slightly as she reflected the dark red hue in her eyes, but she remained unfazed. With a slight turn of the Yata no Kagami in her hand, under Tamamo-no-Mae's urging, a dazzling divine light once again burst forth, heading towards the area covered by thousands of ice blades.

But just then...

"boom!"

A dark red light shot into the sky, but... what gushed out from the giant pit was not blood, but dark red magma.

Lava erupted, and flames raged across the sky.

The frigid ice was instantly shattered and melted under the relentless bombardment of magma.

The rising hot steam and smoke instantly enveloped most of Senso-ji Temple.

The swirling, thick steam enveloped most of Senso-ji Temple and also obscured the divine light emitted by the Yata no Kagami, making it impossible for Tamamo-no-Mae to see what the light had struck.

Pfft!

Just as the sound of the Yata Mirror's divine light seemingly hitting something came, a huge roar, like a volcanic eruption, entered Tamamo-no-Mae's ears.

Amidst the rising steam of scalding water, a giant gourd phantom suddenly exploded.

It seemed as if endless, terrifying magma instantly spread out from it, sweeping across the heavens and earth.

Upon witnessing this scene.

Sensing something was wrong, the snow woman had already turned into snowflakes and disappeared from the spot.

As the snow woman disappeared, large, feathery snowflakes instantly fell from the sky over a radius of several miles centered on Senso-ji Temple.

Cold snowflakes drifted down towards the churning dark red lava.

However, before the snowflakes could even land on the dark red lava, the terrifyingly high temperature emanating from the lava evaporated them, creating a large amount of scorching water vapor.

"not good!"

This sight caused Tamamo-no-Mae's alluring pupils to shrink sharply, and she hurriedly activated the Yata no Kagami in her hand, shining it once again into the space shrouded in water vapor.

In an instant, the magma and water vapor illuminated by the Yata Mirror's divine light froze in place, and even the rising heat was trapped in mid-air.

Unfortunately, apart from the churning lava, it was trapped in place by the Yata Mirror.

The ancient mirror of the Yata no Kagami did not reflect the figure of Shuten-dōji.

Upon seeing this, Tamamo-no-Mae's beautiful face instantly darkened.

Tamamo-no-Mae activated the Yata Mirror this time not to imprison the constantly churning and spreading magma, but to imprison that space and find Shuten-dōji hiding within it.

She was not afraid that Shuten-dōji was hiding in the misty vapor, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on her or the Yuki-onna.

Instead, fearing that he would suffer a great loss under the combined attack of her and Yuki-onna, Shuten-dōji turned and ran away.

Shuten-dōji was violent by nature and powerful, with many demons under his command. Although Tamamo-no-Mae was not afraid of him, she did not want to be targeted by this terrifying guy instead of killing him.

This time, the group of women had finally set up a trap, intending to eliminate Orochi and Shuten-dōji together.

Tamamo-no-Mae didn't want to waste such a great opportunity.

Fortunately.

The thing Tamamo-no-Mae feared most did not happen.

Just as Tamamo-no-Mae's Yata no Kagami froze the magma.

The world suddenly darkened.

A massive meteorite, flowing with dark red magma, suddenly fell from the sky, plummeting towards a space shrouded in ice and snow.

Amidst the ice and snow, a hazy, beautiful figure appeared and disappeared.

Looking at the enormous meteorite overhead, the hazy, beautiful figure murmured:

"Disperse!"

next second.

One after another, illusory figures identical to her instantly split off from her body and shot off in all directions.

Just as she was about to flee and escape this space shrouded in magma and meteorites, a violent voice filled with boundless rage suddenly rang out.

"Trying to run? Ha, you bitch, die!"

Immediately afterwards, an arm, still flowing with scalding hot blood like lava, suddenly emerged from the ice and snow and slammed down on the ground with a thunderous punch.

"boom!"

Another deafening roar.

Streams of scorching magma erupted from the snow-covered ground, piercing through the illusory figures that shot out from the Snow Woman like sharp spikes.

Hundreds of clones split off by the Snow Woman, attempting to scatter and escape, were all struck by terrifying magma spikes.

at the same time.

The dark red meteor in the sky also fell, rising and falling like a giant cage of death, incinerating all the hundreds of figures trapped within it.

The Snow Woman's expression suddenly changed after Shuten-dōji's hateful attack completely blocked her retreat.

Although both are powerful demons of Fusang, Yuki-onna's strength is still quite different from that of top-tier demons like Shuten-dōji and Tamamo-no-Mae.

If Yuki-onna were to withstand Shuten-dōji's deadly attack, she would be severely injured, even if she survived.

Fortunately, it happened at that moment.

A gigantic ancient mirror suddenly appeared in the sky, its divine light illuminating heaven and earth, dividing yin and yang, and directly freezing space.

Whether it was the rapidly falling dark red lava meteorite or the menacing lava spikes on the ground, they were all frozen in the void.

Even the Shuten-dōji, who reappeared in the snowstorm covered in blood, was frozen in this space-time.

call out!

Another dazzling divine light flashed by.

The snow woman, who was also frozen in this time, instantly regained her ability to move.

Having narrowly escaped death, the Yuki-onna, the moment she regained her mobility, used Snow Escape to instantly flee the frozen space-time.

Under the influence of the Yata Mirror, the space where Shuten-dōji was located was completely frozen. The powerful spatial force sealed and imprisoned his body, freezing it like an ice block.

With his body once again bound, Shuten-dōji was completely unable to move, and his situation suddenly became dangerous again.

In an instant, the situation changed dramatically.

One moment the Snow Woman was facing a deadly crisis, the next she had become Shuten-dōji.

"Why aren't you making a move?"

Not far away, in order to maintain the spatial power that imprisoned Shuten-dōji, Tamamo-no-Mae's demonic power surged wildly into the Yata no Kagami in her hand, making it difficult for her to move.

But don't forget, Tamamo-no-Mae wasn't fighting alone.

Just as the Snow Woman, who had fled hundreds of meters away, heard this and was about to turn around and attack Shuten-dōji,

On the gate of Senso-ji Temple, which had long since turned into ruins with only a broken pillar remaining, a burly figure that had been standing there for who knows how long suddenly leaped down.

With a gentle flap of his enormous wings, he broke the sound barrier, creating a violent hurricane and a fierce wind pressure.

Before the huge sonic boom could be heard.

The burly figure flashed a silver light in his hand and suddenly covered a distance of several hundred meters, appearing behind Shuten-dōji.

"Sizzle..."

As the sound of a sword being sheathed slowly echoed, a dark crack, as if cleaved by a sword, suddenly appeared in the void behind the Great Tengu.

"Great Tengu, you..."

That slash that spread across the void seemed to have also released the restraints on Shuten-dōji, restoring the frozen spacetime to normal.

In that frozen space-time, covered in blood, with a hint of resentment in his eyes, Shuten-dōji's lips twitched slightly. He had barely uttered a few words when his burly and majestic demon body was instantly torn into dozens of pieces by terrifying sword energy.

Boom!

Followed by.

The demonic body, torn into dozens of pieces, was incinerated by the sudden eruption of magma meteorites and magma spikes after it was unsealed.

"drink!"

Amidst the terrifying impact of the falling magma meteorite, Tamamo-no-Mae shouted.

Ignoring the physical strain and overdrawing his demonic power, he forcefully activated the Yata Mirror of the Recycling Station, once again unleashing a dazzling beam of bright yellow divine light.

The photograph captured the space shrouded in lava, and also the soul struggling to escape from the churning lava.

"Buzz!"

As the divine light shone down, it searched the heavens and earth, and Shuten-dōji's dim soul instantly appeared in the Yata no Kagami.

In an instant, a bright yellow divine light flowed, and a large portion of Shuten-dōji's dim soul was pierced by the bright yellow divine light, and then crushed into nothingness by the spatial power that followed.

In an instant.

This great demon, who left a glorious name in the history of Japan, was completely silenced by the combined scheme of Yuki-onna and Ōtengu in front of Tamamo-no-Mae. Even its demonic body, which contained terrifying power, was ignited by the terrifying magma it summoned, and burned into pools of black ash.

Shuten-dōji—Die!

···········

"Walk!"

After delivering the final blow to Shuten-dōji, Ōtengu's wings flapped once more, instantly breaking the sonic boom. Then, carrying Tamamo-no-Mae in one hand and Yuki-onna in the other, he vanished into the hellish dimensional passage beneath Senso-ji Temple.

Almost the instant they entered that hellish dimensional passage.

The nuclear shockwave that swept from Mount Fuji shattered the barrier that Tamamo-no-Mae had set up outside Senso-ji Temple.

Like a plowshare sweeping away a cave, the nuclear explosion directly engulfed Senso-ji Temple, which had already been reduced to ruins, in the aftershocks.

No sooner said than done.

Although it seems like a long time has passed since the battle between Shuten-dōji and Tamamo-no-Mae, Yuki-onna and Ōtengu.

In reality, only a few seconds passed between Shuten-dōji's appearance and his death.

However, in those few short seconds, the terrifying nuclear shockwave from the explosion at Mount Fuji spread to Senso-ji Temple.

If Tamamo-no-Mae hadn't taken the time to activate the Yata Mirror, unleashing a divine light that delayed the nuclear explosion's impact and set up a barrier outside Senso-ji Temple in advance...

I'm afraid that before they can completely deal with Shuten-dōji, the aftershocks of the nuclear explosion will engulf these great demons.
