Curse Return: Swordsmith Start

Chapter 87 Solution

"But senior, I need to subdue that thing myself, but I obviously don't have that power right now. And once the subjugation ritual begins, it will be a fight to the death."

Fukuro's explanation left Itadori and the other person stunned. They hadn't expected the subjugation ritual to be so dangerous, and they instantly understood why Fukuro hadn't subjugated those shikigami yet.

The Yue people nodded calmly in response.

"I know that the subjugation ritual must be performed by the user himself and cannot be performed with the help of others. Otherwise, even if the Demon Void is defeated, the subjugation will still be considered a failure."

"6

'

The two henchmen were dumbfounded upon hearing this. Such an outrageous ceremony... What's the point of subduing someone with such a large difference in strength? Are they in such a hurry to be reincarnated?

"Since you know that, then why..."

'

"That's why I've waited until now, until I found your knife. The solution I'm offering you is right here."

As he spoke, he handed the completed black katana to Fukuro. With the three of them still looking puzzled, Yue Ren continued to explain.

"As the strongest shikigami, Moxulu has been untamed for thousands of years. To tame it, the user must first become the strongest like Gojo Satoru, possessing absolute power and capable of killing it with a single blow. But that is the problem. To possess Moxulu, one must become a powerful person. And since a powerful person is already powerful enough, why would they need to possess Moxulu?"

"So under normal circumstances, the Demon Void is useless to the Ten Shadow Masters, or rather, its only function is to take someone down with it."

"be made a scapegoat?"

The other two were dumbfounded.

"That's right. As I just said, the subjugation ritual needs to be completed independently by the user. Assistance from others is ineffective. However, this ritual can also be exploited. For example, if you encounter an opponent that you need to defeat but cannot, you can pull them into the subjugation ritual of Moxuluo. Moxuluo will kill the user of the ritual and also kill the person who has been confirmed to have joined the subjugation ritual before disappearing. This is the so-called 'mutual destruction' technique, which is also the reason why the Zen family head and the Gojo family head perished together a thousand years ago."

""

The air fell silent at that moment.

The all-seeing look in Yue Ren's eyes made Fuhei Hui dare not look him in the eye, and the other two people beside him were so shocked by the fact that it was unusable that they were speechless for a long time.

"Interesting, kid. I'm suddenly becoming quite interested in you. How exactly are you going to help this guy? Let me see."

Just then, a discordant voice suddenly reached everyone's ears. The trio instinctively tensed up and turned to look. Itachi's face now had a mouth and an eye, and his expression was arrogant and ferocious, making him look exceptionally evil.

"Two-faced Sukuna"

The evil god that had been lurking within Tiger Staff's body became interested upon seeing everything the Yue people had prepared, and even spoke up on its own initiative.

Tiger Staff slapped his face, but it had no effect; the smirk reappeared on his arm.

"Sorry, senior, this guy came out without permission."

Yue Ren waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and then said with an indifferent expression.

"Then please wait and see, Ryoumen Sukuna, witness the birth of another powerful figure."

"Hahahaha, are you kidding me, brat? One shikigami can turn another kid who's still nursing into a powerful being? Is your vision really that shallow?"

The three men looked indignant, but Yue Ren didn't mind their mockery at all and simply spoke frankly.

"Some people need a catalyst to transform themselves, just like how you gained extraordinary potential after eating your twin brother in your mother's womb. Fushiguro Megumi will also embark on his path to becoming a powerful figure by subduing this shikigami. Don't underestimate anyone, Ryoumen Sukuna."

"6

""

The Yue man's words silenced the man who inspired fear and hatred in everyone.

"You little brat, just how much do you know...?"

"Who knows? Maybe that's all there is, Lord Two-Faced Demon."

The tone was clearly sarcastic, but Su Nuo didn't continue speaking. At this moment, she felt a sense of apprehension towards this guy who actually knew such inside information.

"Senior, are you telling the truth? That guy... ate his own brother while he was still in his mother's womb?"

'

Itachi was stunned by this despicable act, as were the other two.

The Yue man said nonchalantly, "That's right. Although there are reasons related to the times, in the end, this guy is just a born villain. So, when facing this guy, you only need to do one thing: escape, or kill him when you have the ability."

"Do not harbor any emotions toward him other than mortal hatred and hatred. He is neither worthy nor needing of such things, because he adheres to the purest evil principle: to eat or be eaten. And his true identity is that of a cook who feeds on human flesh."

"!!???"

The three of them were clearly startled, a chill ran straight to the top of their heads, and their bodies trembled involuntarily.

"Understood."

"Getting back to the main point, the reason I called Fukuro here is to help him subdue the strongest shikigami, Mo Xuluo."

This decision was somewhat shocking, but surprisingly, it wasn't too hard for everyone to accept. After all, this senior never fought a battle he wasn't confident of winning, so if he said so, then he must have a way.

This is something that everyone firmly believes in.

"Then, Senior Yue, what should I do?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Ren glanced at his phone.

"First, let's wait a few more minutes. I've also arranged for someone to act as an insurance agent for this matter. Let's see if she comes. If she doesn't, I'll call Gojo Satoru."

"6

'

"Insurance... Gojo Satoru-sensei... why?"

The three curious children continued to explain.

"As I've already said, the ritual to subdue Moxu Luo is extremely dangerous. Just in case it fails, we need someone strong enough to kill Moxu Luo and end the ritual if necessary, so Fuhei won't have to die. Understand?"

"Oh, oh, oh."

The three nodded vigorously.

A few minutes later, a sporty older sister who seemed increasingly familiar gradually came into view.

The three children looked on with curiosity: "Is this insurance?" And she's such a beauty!

Especially Haddock, this tall woman with a big bottom hit his target, but she seemed a bit old.

"Ah, there are so many cute little ones. Koshito-kun, is it some kind of fun group activity?"

The energetic older sister (older auntie) greeted everyone with a happy face, and everyone was infected by her cheerful personality, which made them less wary. "The person has arrived. Let me introduce him. This is Tsukumo Yuki, one of the top-level sorcerers."

"A top-tier mage?"

Everyone was filled with disbelief, as it was simply too incredible. This was a Special Grade Mage, one of only three in the entire world. Although they had seen many Special Grade Mages like Gojo Satoru, who could have imagined that their senior could so easily summon another one?

"She's also Toudou Aoi's teacher. Itadori, aren't you Toudou's close friend? You can get to know her better."

Upon hearing this, the two had different expressions. Tsukumo Yuki showed an interested expression. After all, she knew her apprentice's personality best. Becoming his close friend, this boy would probably be very interesting.

Meanwhile, Itajimaru wore a pained expression. To be honest, his feelings for Toudou were quite complicated.

Yue Ren continued his introduction, this time to Tsukumo Yuki.

"These three first-year students are my juniors, including the legendary athlete Hisahito Itadori."

"Huh? Who gave me this nickname?"

Huzhang looked completely bewildered. When did he get such a nickname?

"New Queen Kugizaki Nobara".

"Nice title, I like it."

Kugizaki was very happy.

"And there's the future head of the Zen family, Fushiguro Megumi."

"Senior, what are you saying?"

Fukuro Megumi looked puzzled, wondering why Yue Ren would say such a thing. How could he possibly be the head of the Zen-in family?

"Oh my, what adorable and amazing juniors! So, you've gathered us all here, is there some big, interesting plan in mind?"

The man from Yue smiled slightly.

"This place isn't suitable for what's to come, so let me change my environment."

He formed hand seals.

"Wu Yuan Sword Technique"

The surrounding environment once again transformed into the familiar Sword Hill.

"What?! This is magic that can change the world? That's amazing!"

Kugizaki was entering the territory of the Echigo people for the first time, and her face was full of surprise. Itadori, standing beside her, explained to her as if he had been there before.

"Indeed amazing. This is the first time I've ever seen such a strange field. Young man Yue, you really have a skill."

.

"No one can bother us here, so let's officially begin our plan."

Ignoring the somewhat mocking look in Jiujiu's eyes, Yue Ren didn't intend to waste any more time. After all, activating the inherent barrier also consumed magical power, so it was better to end it as soon as possible.

"First, Fukuro, pick up the sword beside you."

Yue Ren pointed to a weapon next to Fu Hei.

"this?"

Fuhei picked up a sword stuck in the ground beside him. To his surprise, the iron sword, which was originally rusty, regained its luster after he picked it up, as if it had just been forged.

"Swing your sword towards the distance."

Fu Hei didn't understand, but following the Yue people's instructions, he gripped the Western two-handed sword tightly and slashed downwards.

The next moment, something shocking happened.

A beam of energy shot out from the sword, like a light cannon, and blasted into the distance, tearing the earth in its path. The intense visual impact made it impossible for anyone to question the damage of this attack.

Fu Hei stared in disbelief at the scene before him. A huge crack had appeared in the ground in front of him, like an abyss, after he had blasted it.

He only swung his sword once, how could this be...?

"Keep going, get used to this feeling. Any weapon around you is fine, pick one."

"Why, senior? What is the purpose of doing this...?"

""

"The katana I gave you is the same weapon you just used, but it's a one-time use weapon, much more powerful, and it uses your magical power. This is the key I designed to help you subdue the demon Xu Luo."

"As the strongest shikigami, Moxu Luo's mechanism is naturally very special. Besides having strength comparable to a special-grade shikigami right after being summoned, its biggest trump card that makes it the strongest is its technique 'Adaptation'."

The Yue people's words attracted everyone's attention. This kind of information was very interesting and deserved everyone's attention, including Tsukumo Yuki.

"The Demon Void has a Dharma wheel on its back that rotates whenever it is attacked, allowing it to gradually adapt to all spell attacks until it becomes completely immune. Similarly, the mechanism is the same; no matter how absurd the mechanism is, as long as it adapts to it, it can find a corresponding solution. In other words, it is the strongest counter-attack in rock-paper-scissors. Once it has witnessed all of its opponent's moves, then it becomes the most terrifying enemy."

"6

""

Outrageous!

This was the only word that came to everyone else's mind at this moment, including Tsukumo Yuki. It was also the first time she had learned about the strongest shikigami, "Dry Seed Shadow Magic." If this was the mechanism, then it was not surprising that it could be called the strongest shikigami.

Fushiguro Megumi finally understood why the teacher said the "Ten Shadow Arts" were very strong; the mechanics of this shikigami were truly absurd.

"How exactly does this incredibly powerful guy...?"

'

"Does Senior mean a fatal blow?"

Yue Ren nodded unconsciously. Fu Hei's potential was actually quite good, and his combat intelligence was extremely high.

"Fukuguro is right. To subdue the Demon Void, we must use a technique it has never seen before to blast it into dust in one blow, similar to Gojo Satoru's strongest attack."

"But Fukuro doesn't have that kind of move right now, so I came up with a shortcut: weapons."

Everyone's attention was drawn to the weapon in Fu Hei's hand.

"That katana was infused with twenty times the amount of Fushiguro's daily magical power, and the weapon itself was an energy emitter similar to the one just mentioned. If Fushiguro's magical power is like a bullet, then that katana is like a gun, its function being to amplify Fushiguro's magical power for a single, powerful strike."

"What Fuhei needs to do is to use that sword to strike and shatter the newly summoned Demon Void Luo, which has not yet adapted to its new form."

"I think that wouldn't count as assisting in the subjugation, since weapons are inanimate objects and cursed power is also dark."

These words were like a light shining in everyone's hearts—was this really the way they planned to solve the problem?

so amazing.

"I see, what a brilliant idea. So you had him swing his sword just now to get him used to this kind of attack in advance?"

'

"That's right. After all, you only get one chance, and you, Tsukumo Yuki, are that insurance. If you fail, you have to use your own power to kill Moxu Luo and ensure Fukuguro Megumi's survival. Any objections?"

"How could that be? Indeed, it's a very interesting suggestion. I'm eager to witness the power of this strongest shikigami."

The woman was overjoyed. This trip was definitely worthwhile. Although it required effort, if she could see the result the Yue people had predicted, it would be well worth it.

"So, Fukuro, do you understand now?"

'

"Yes, thank you, senior."

"Focus on what's coming next, after all, I didn't do this entirely for you."

"clear."

Knowing that this senior always did the gentlest things with the harshest words, Fushiguro kept this warmth hidden in a corner of his heart once again.

His gaze gradually hardened; he felt he absolutely could not let his seniors down.

Without hesitation, Fu Hei practiced dozens of times, including sparring with Yue Ren, until he finally fully adapted to this attack method.

The real challenge is now officially beginning.

Encouraged by the crowd behind him, Fushiguro Megumi clasped his hands together and began the subjugation ritual.

"Demon Void"
