In Tokyo, building the Holy Light Girls team

Above the sky, in the same spot, the holy light power transformed from Sayuri and the others' [Sacred Artifacts] had entered Natsuki's body. Feeling his body changing at a visible speed once again, Natsuki murmured:

"...In that case, they should be safe enough..."

As he spoke, the sheer size of the Demon King before him made it impossible for anyone to muster the slightest desire to resist, especially the gaze fixed on Xia Mu, which was now tinged with a terrifying, increasingly intense crimson light!

Since the appearance of the Demon King, Xia Mu has realized that he has been targeted by the Demon King. Perhaps it was because he had previously hindered the Illuminati's resurrection plan, but Xia Mu is more inclined to believe that the Demon King's actions are more closely related to the Holy Light power within him.

After all, the unstoppable killing intent, besides being directed at him, also had a small portion that pierced through the black mist and fell towards the ground below the clouds. Although he hadn't turned around, Xia Mu vaguely realized that the Demon King had also set his sights on Sayuri and the others!

In the past world of Ragna, it was the existence of the Holy Light that prevented the Demon King from destroying the world to some extent. Without the Holy Light, the world of Ragna might have been completely destroyed in just one day, no, even half a day. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Demon King has an extremely strong hatred for the Holy Light.

Therefore, in order to protect them and to obtain as much power as possible to stop the Demon King, Natsuki conveyed his thoughts to Sayuri through telepathy. Through the girl, he regained the power released from the Sacred Relic, which led to the scene described earlier.

Previously, Natsuki might not have attempted this method, because after using the power to unleash the [Sacred Relic], both Awakened beings like Sayuri and those who hadn't fully awakened would suffer uncontrollable side effects, the impact of which was so great that even Natsuki couldn't prevent it. But—

Xia Mu's eyes were deep, and a voice only he could hear rang out: "To defeat this guy... I had no choice but to do it this way... I'm sorry... If I have the chance... I'll..."

Before she could finish speaking, including the deep sorrow in her words, Xia Mu instantly wiped them away!

The next second, a torrent of energy, solidified into a tangible form, erupted from Xia Mu's body. The power it released was more than one level stronger than before!

The light emanating from the Holy Light Cross became incredibly intense, as if it knew what was about to happen. As it trembled, even Xia Mu felt a kind of emotion called "jubilation"!

"Hehe, what an incredible existence, to even possess such emotions. However, this level alone is far from enough!"

As Xia Mu spoke, the Demon King's gaze suddenly became even more terrifying because of his actions. The dense holy light power released an extremely terrifying killing intent, and a huge demonic claw was raised and slammed down heavily towards Xia Mu below!

"Unfortunately... it will take a little more time to reach the limit... being so impatient... you can't eat hot tofu in a day..."

Xia Mu shook his head, simply controlling the Holy Light Wings to bloom from within his body. Instantly, eight pairs of pure white wings appeared from his back, their flawless color subtly revealing a delicate beauty.

Compared to before, after regaining the power, Xia Mu's Holy Light Wings underwent significant changes. Not only did the number of wings increase, but the resulting speed also completely broke the speed of sound!

boom!

With just a light tap, the terrifying speed instantly made Xia Mu disappear from his spot. The Demon King's gaze was fixed on the moving Xia Mu. The giant demon claw changed its attack trajectory, lightly sweeping across the black mist, bringing huge waves, and then raised upwards again!

Whoosh!

What seemed like an ordinary strike caused the surrounding clouds and mist to surge, and because of its large scale, it even completely dispersed a large area of ​​black mist. Sayuri and the others were finally able to clearly see the figure rushing towards the Demon King in the air.

"I see Teacher Natsuki!"

"Go, big brother Xia Mu! Don't lose to that big guy!"

"Xiamu..."

"..."

Shouts rose and fell from the ground below, but Xia Mu couldn't spare much attention. After all, the Demon King's attack was imminent, and if he underestimated it, he would be smashed apart by the terrifying demonic claws just like the black mist earlier!

So, Xia Mu only glanced at the giant demonic claw, then the lowest wing accelerated, instantly turned around, and flew towards the other shoulder of the [Demon King]!

call out--

It has to be said that the threat posed by the Demon King's terrifying body became increasingly intense as the distance closed in. If it weren't for the Holy Light power that was recovered, which allowed Xia Mu to break through again, he would not have been able to get this close!

It'll be soon!

We're almost there!

Just a little bit left!

Many thoughts flashed through Xia Mu's mind. For some reason, he suddenly felt an extremely terrifying sense of danger coming from somewhere, which made his alarm bells ring. The moment he looked up, he also noticed that the Demon King's eyes were rapidly gathering crimson death energy, which then swept directly in his direction!

Whoosh!

The terrifying power, unimaginable to human society, was easily unleashed from the Demon King. With just this one strike, several islands on the edge of the island nation were directly evaporated. Even from high above, one could clearly see that the sea below had been torn with astonishing "scars" that would not heal for a long time!

Having narrowly dodged the attack, Xia Mu, through his eyesight, saw the scene unfolding in the distance and gasped in shock: "Hey, hey, hey, you're not kidding, are you? This level of power, even a hundred nuclear bombs probably couldn't compare to it, right?"

He also realized once again that if this problem could not be solved in a short time, the world might face an even more terrifying end than that of Ragna!

As a result, Xia Mu once again unleashed astonishing speed, subconsciously controlling his wings. However, as if sensing something, he turned his head and saw that one side of his wings had been dissolved by the previous attack, while his own body was falling helplessly downwards. His pupils widened instantly.

"it turns out?!!!"

At the same time, one of the Demon King's demonic claws struck out again, accompanied by a terrifying pressure that seemed capable of destroying the world!

……

Chapter 323 Killer Move!

The demonic claw slammed down, creating a whooshing sound. From Xia Mu's perspective, it looked like the sky was falling. After all, a hand as large as a mountain was enough to destroy a town directly, so it wasn't surprising that it gave off this feeling.

That terrifying power, combined with astonishing speed, ignited crimson flames at the edge of the demonic claws. This was a phenomenon that occurred spontaneously on the surface of an object when speed and power reached a certain limit.

Strangely, Xia Mu was calm at this moment. As he watched the descending demonic claws, he felt a sense of déjà vu, as if he were facing the Five Finger Mountain, and he felt just like the mischievous monkey who once wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace...

Shaking his head to clear his mind of distractions, Xia Mu narrowed his eyes. The cross-shaped holy mark etched in his pupils was emitting a sharp light at an extremely fast speed. With a "hum" sound, the holy light wings, which were in a damaged state just a second ago, were restored at an extremely fast speed in the next second. In just two breaths, they were back to their previous state.

Whoosh!

As soon as it recovered, Xia Mu flapped its wings and charged straight at the demonic claw as it came down!

In an instant, an indescribable impact erupted the moment the two collided, its astonishing scale forming a terrifying shockwave that spread outwards. Amidst the swirling clouds, the speed at which the Demon King's claws descended also slowed slightly!

Finally, the demonic claw touched the ground, causing an instant earthquake. Terrifying cracks spread outwards from the claw. Because Xia Mu had consciously guided the attack, it did not land on Sayuri and the others. Otherwise, even with the Holy Light power, they would have had a hard time surviving this terrifying blow!

For the Demon King, this attack was as easy as killing a mosquito. His calm expression remained unchanged until he saw a figure surrounded by holy light flying rapidly towards him from below. At that moment, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"Fool! Do you really think you can subdue me with just one hand? Don't be ridiculous!!!"

Xia Mu shouted, and the holy light power emanating from his body reached an even more astonishing level in an instant. He noticed that when the Demon King's head was bombarded with the Demon Claw, it inevitably sank down, which caused the distance between them to shrink rapidly in an instant. This made Xia Mu overjoyed, and his speed increased even more!

"Hurry up! Faster! So what if you're the Demon King? I'll slaughter you today!"

Overcome with excitement, Natsuki unconsciously swore. If Mai and the others were there, they might feel uncomfortable, since the Natsuki they remembered had always been gentle, and such a behavior was quite rare!

Finally, after Xia Mu raced at full speed, he arrived in front of the Demon King's head and finally saw the terrifying head that was as big as a mountain!

As Xia Mu drew nearer to the terrifying head before him, an indescribable visual impact continuously affected his mind. Beyond the psychological effects, the flow of holy light was also subtly hindered compared to before. However, correspondingly, the power systems of both sides clearly countered each other. The holy light was affected, and the aura of the [Demon King] before him was also suppressed somewhat as Xia Mu approached. Although it wasn't as noticeable as the vast, hellish aura, the [Demon King] still displayed terrifying rage at the changes occurring within him!

!!!

An indescribable sound came from the Demon King's mouth, and the astonishing wind and waves made Xia Mu's pants, which were the only thing on his body, rustle loudly, and even the wings on his back trembled slightly in the wind and waves.

However, facing such a ferocious [Demon King], Xia Mu showed a disgusted expression: "Hiss—this smell... How long has it been since you brushed your teeth... Sorry, I almost forgot... If I remember correctly... it should be since that world... you've been sleeping until now... naturally you haven't had much chance to brush your teeth... Hehe... Hehe..."

Xia Mu didn't understand the sarcasm in Xia Mu's words, but the Demon King still roared loudly at him. Xia Mu realized that the Demon King clearly didn't have much intelligence. All his actions followed the principles of destruction and devastation. In other words, the purpose of his appearance was simply to destroy the world at present, nothing more.

"How pathetic... But... that's precisely why... I have even more reason... to completely erase you from this world... no... from this dimension... If you were to appear on Earth... the place that gave me birth and raised me... that would be a real problem..."

Xia Mu sighed, looking at the Demon King before him with a chilling glint in his eyes. Before taking any action, he glanced down and seemed to see the worry on the faces of the women looking in his direction.

"call……"

He stopped staring, his pupils flashed with the holy cross mark, and the cross necklace on his chest released an unprecedented light. When it landed on the Demon King, it instantly generated a powerful suction force!

Whoosh!

The Demon King's ferocious eyes seemed to finally sense some impending danger. He swung his two demonic claws simultaneously, trying to extricate himself from this danger, but to his astonishment, he was unable to stop it!

"Ha! Haven't you realized yet? This was a predetermined outcome! Foolish Demon King!"

Xia Mu let out a cold laugh. On her cross necklace, an eyeball-shaped object was releasing a powerful suction force. It was because of its existence that the Demon King could not break free. If Sayuri and the others were here, they would probably be surprised to find that this was actually the vanished Heavenly Dao!

In fact, the former [Heavenly Path] was part of the cross necklace, the phantom that Xia Mu once discovered. It was because of its existence that the actions of the ghosts were constantly restrained until Xia Mu absorbed it. The power of the [Heavenly Path] was also condensed into the necklace. The reason why its power has grown so terrifyingly is inextricably linked to it!

In particular, during the years of exterminating demons, the Heavenly Dao has accumulated an astonishing amount of power. Combined with Xia Mu himself, the cross necklace at this moment has reached the same dimension as the Demon King's power. The move he is currently using is an attempt to forcibly absorb the Demon King into the necklace, making him disappear completely from the real world and even from the dimensional level!

……

Chapter 324 What kind of dream is this?

Whoosh!

The once awe-inspiring Demon King suddenly began to struggle violently, trying with all his might to break free from a terrifying suction force behind him. However, it was all in vain. The source of this suction force was none other than the Eye of Heaven from a necklace!

puff!

Xia Mu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, which was covered with a crystalline golden light and clearly still contained some traces of power. After leaving his body, the blood floated in mid-air and eventually turned into specks of crystalline light.

Even now, the [Eye of Heaven], after absorbing the power of the demons, has actually surpassed the power of holy light from the Ragnar world, which is why it was able to suppress the [Demon King]!

However, using this power still comes at an unimaginable price. Not only does the Holy Light within the body need to serve as a medium, but life, soul, and spiritual power are also affected to a certain extent.

Xia Mu also realized that the price of this [Eye of Heaven] was that if it continued, even he might face an indescribable end. But the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be released. Letting this [Demon King] continue to run rampant would only cause the world to repeat the same mistakes and end up like Ragna. Now that he had seen some opportunities, how could he give them up so easily?

Thinking of this, Xia Mu mobilized even more of his mind, his pupils almost bursting, and the cross-shaped holy mark inside trembled violently, as if it also realized the resonance of the body's power, trying to pull the [Demon King] in front of him into it in the shortest possible time!

"Get in here... obediently!!!"

Xia Mu roared, and the Demon King also let out an astonishing roar. The sound shook the heavens, and the surrounding clouds trembled slightly. Terrifying cracks appeared in the void.

Click, click!

The clash of forces between the two sides had a terrifying impact at this moment. The surrounding space trembled, waves tens or even hundreds of meters high surged in the nearby sea, and the ground also trembled violently. As for Mount Fuji, the most famous mountain in the island nation, it had already been affected by the terrifying force. With a "boom," crimson magma rose into the sky, and billowing black smoke turned the surrounding area into a terrifying inferno.

In addition, various astonishing phenomena were also occurring around the world, with cries for help echoing throughout the world. Knowing the severity of the situation, Xia Mu couldn't help but devote more of his efforts to it. Suddenly, he noticed a familiar figure appearing in the scene before him.

"Ms. Natsuki, what have you been daydreaming about all this time? Oh well, I'll only say this once. But you're my favorite Ms. Natsuki, hehe..."

"Sa...Sayuri?"

When Xia Mu saw the girl, he was somewhat taken aback. Wasn't he just subduing the Demon King? How did he end up here?

When he subconsciously shifted his gaze, he found himself lying on the bed, with the girl in his arms. The spot against his chest was a stunningly beautiful sight, and he could even see her translucent skin through the gap.

"This is……"

"Is it time already? Natsuki-sensei, and Sayuri, you've woken up way too early. Shiroshima is still a little sleepy..."

Shirashima's voice also came from under the covers. A girl with short white hair emerged from under the covers, and Natsuki realized that she was hugging him with both arms. Her exposed white skin was clearly in a wonderful state, just like Sayuri's.

Natsuki even saw that on his other arm, a sleepy-eyed girl was slowly waking up. The way she was rubbing her eyes was incredibly cute, and the girl's face was clearly Rika's!

Sayuri...Shirajima...Rika...

what's the situation?

Wasn't I just fighting the Demon King?

How did I end up here?
