Tsunade couldn't help but sigh silently.
If she had known this task would be so troublesome, she definitely wouldn't have taken it on so easily.
[Chapter 486 Ten-Day Deadline]
Inside the shrine where the body of a demon is sealed in the Swamp Country.
To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Mr. Di simply used the spatial rift to travel quickly, arriving back here as fast as possible.
Only then did he return his body to Shanhu.
After Shanhu opened his eyes, he subconsciously took a step forward, but because his consciousness and body were out of sync, he fell directly to the ground.
The more often and for the longer Mr. Enemy controlled the body, the more Shanhu felt that this body was not her own, and the lag in giving commands became more and more obvious.
This made him look pale, and he wasn't in the mood to speak when he got up.
Mr. Di naturally knew why Shanhu's expression had turned ugly.
However, he was no longer going to explain anything. Once he obtained the body of the monster in front of him, he could leave it.
All problems will be solved then.
Furthermore, his 'keeping his promises' will surely make Shanhu trust him even more.
"Woman, break this seal, and don't try anything funny."
Ziyuan bit her lip. "The seal here was completed by my mother herself. My abilities are insufficient, so I can only gradually wear down the key marks within, which will take a lot of time."
Mr. Enemy glanced at her and said, "I'll give you three days. If you can't solve it, you die."
Ziyuan replied bluntly, "If you can't do it, just kill me now."
Shanhu immediately grabbed Ziyuan by the neck and lifted her up.
Shanhu stared intently at her three eyes, remaining silent, which exerted immense pressure on Shion.
"Believe me, sometimes death is not a relief, but the beginning of suffering."
Most people probably couldn't withstand this pressure and would have begged for mercy immediately.
But Shion didn't, because she was mentally prepared to face death from the very beginning.
She fled; her struggle was simply to prevent the monsters here from being released.
So she wasn't afraid of death; she simply stared back at him calmly, her face flushed.
Gradually, Shion's hands fell limply to her sides...
A flash of anger crossed Shan Hu's eyes. How dare an ordinary human woman defy his will?
He tightened his grip, intending to snap the other person's neck.
But suddenly, he found himself losing control of his body again.
"Calm down. Don't forget why we went through so much trouble to bring this woman here."
Mr. Di's voice immediately rang out.
"Humph!"
Shanhu snorted coldly, but showed no intention of killing anyone else.
Seeing this, Mr. Di returned control of the body to Shanhu.
Shanhu flung Ziyuan away in disgust.
As soon as Ziyuan fell to the ground, she began to cough violently. The terrifying feeling of suffocation is something that those who have not experienced it cannot understand.
"How many days will it take to break the seal here?"
After Ziyuan had recovered for a while, Shanhu asked again.
"It will take at least a month."
Shanhu was so angry she almost laughed. "Ten days. If you can't break the seal within ten days, I'll make a cut on your face every hour. If you still can't break it, I'll start from your toes and cut them off one by one."
Ziyuan wanted to say something more, but Shanhu kicked her into the ancestral hall.
Ziyuan, who had been smashed into the ancestral hall, coughed up a mouthful of blood.
But it was worth it; she successfully gained ten days, or maybe more.
If no one can find this place to rescue her before she can no longer hold on, she will choose to die here.
Break the seal?
She never intended to do this in the first place.
However, I still need to go through the motions to avoid getting angry and dragging her into it.
"Mom, please bless your daughter so that she can defeat these monsters."
Ziyuan held the bell, a keepsake left to her by her mother, in her palm, then sat cross-legged and began to connect with the seal here.
In an instant, a purplish-black light enveloped the entire ancestral hall, filling it with an aura of malice and misfortune.
This immediately obscured the view of the coral reef from the outside.
Even with Mr. Di's eyes, all he could see was Ziyuan sitting cross-legged on the ground, looking solemn.
"Unfathomable yet impressive" is probably the best way to describe this situation.
They didn't know if Shion was actually trying her best to break the seal, but at least the lighting effects looked somewhat like it.
It would only take about ten days, and Shanhu was ready to wait here.
If the seal is still not broken after the ten-day period, he will definitely make the other party regret deceiving him!

Meanwhile, Shinji, who had just dealt with a horde of cursed spirits, also received a plea for help from Tsunade.
He had absolutely no interest in the fact that Shion had been captured by the monster.
Based solely on Tsunade's description, it was roughly deduced that the monster was likely the Special Grade Cursed Spirit that had escaped from Iwagakure last time.
Shinji still remembered that Mr. Enemy's escape was achieved by parasitizing that guy.
He was indeed not interested in rescuing Violet, but he wanted to completely eliminate Mr. Enemy and Coral, the two top-tier cursed spirits.
And if the other side releases that damn monster, it might actually cause some trouble.
Shinji thought about it again and again, and finally decided to go and take a look.
Just then, Sasuke used the Kusanagi Sword to kill the last level 2 cursed spirit.
"Afei, how far is this place from the Land of Swamps?"
Afei, who was leaning against a tree and frantically observing the map, was suddenly startled awake and hurriedly pulled out the map.
"Let me see, the Land of Swamps, the Land of Swamps... Oh, found it!"
"After passing through two small countries, we'll reach the Land of Swamps. Huh? Are we going to the Land of Swamps?"
That wasn't their original destination.
"The plan has changed. We need to go to the Swamp Country first, and we need to speed up our journey."
"Huh? Oh..."
Ignoring the mischievous Afei, Shinji jumped off the rock and snapped his fingers, pulverizing all the corpses on the ground.
.
.
.
Meanwhile, Tsunade, along with Shizune and Sakura, is heading towards the Land of Demons.
During their journey, Shizune and Sakura felt extremely guilty, thinking they were useless for letting their mission's target end up saving their lives.
Otherwise, everyone might have died at the hands of the monster.
"Lady Tsunade, we can definitely rescue Shion, right?"
"Of course, if I can't save that little girl, I'll never drink again."
Whether it was to comfort her disciple or to set a high bar for herself, Tsunade made such a weighty vow.
This also shows Tsunade's determination!
After that encounter, Tsunade realized how formidable her opponent was, and she couldn't guarantee that she could defeat him.
However, if we catch the other party off guard and snatch them out, we still have a good chance of success.
She was just worried that her call for help wouldn't be fast enough to reach her.
[487. Chapter 475 The Guide]
In the blink of an eye, eight days have passed.
Shanhu sat motionless on the ground, waiting for the results. Only at noon each day would he bring the wild fruits and water he had found to the door, and then the people inside would take them in themselves.
The ancestral hall looks exactly the same as it did 8 days ago; there has been no change.
This caused Shanhu's expression to start to look a little off.
Even Mr. Di, who woke up several times to check on the situation, remained silent.
This suggests that they already had some suspicions.
Either the other party's ability is truly insufficient, and it takes a longer time to gradually wear down the seal.
Either the other party is playing them, using this opportunity to buy time.
Regardless of the reason, it means their patience is nearing its limit.
