"Concentrate, Your Highness. Its mind control cannot affect those with a firm resolve."

At the same time, a gentle yet vast spiritual force quietly enveloped the priestess, shielding her from most of the spiritual pollution.

"Go! Lure it in!"

Ebizo gave the order with a hissing voice.

"Boiling Release: Super Steam Explosion!"

Han roared, his body steam boiling to its limit once more, and his fists condensed into huge steam cannonballs, which slammed into the giant single eye of the demon!

"Magnetic Release: Iron Sand Rain!"

Ebizo's puppets coordinated, shooting out a dense rain of iron needles that covered the massive body of the demon.

"Purple Lightning - Thunder Beast Chasing Fang!"

Kakashi's Lightning Release transformed into a roaring lightning wolf, tearing at the base of the demon's tentacles.

"Sixth Scenic Gate - Open! Facing the Peacock!"

A burst of violent green steam erupted from Kai's body, and countless air cannons, like burning peacock tail feathers, rained down on the demon!

The top ninjas from the three great ninja villages unleashed their signature ninjutsu without reservation!

The sharpness of iron sand, the ferocity of steam, the destructive power of lightning, and the fierceness of taijutsu—all the chakra lights of various attributes exploded at the entrance of the valley, weaving together a picture of destruction!

The demon roared angrily, its tentacles flailing wildly, easily shattering most of the incoming attacks. Dark purple beams of fel energy spewed from its massive maw, carving scorched trenches into the ground.

However, this fierce counterattack gradually enraged it, and its massive body was guided toward the narrow entrance to the valley.

"Now!"

Ebizo seized the opportunity and detonated the trap at the mouth of the valley!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The flames from the detonating tags and the attacks from the puppet mechanism erupted simultaneously. Although they could not cause any real damage to the demon, they successfully attracted its attention and pushed its massive body further into the depths of the valley!

The instant the demon's mountain-like shadow completely disappeared into the narrow valley entrance—

"seal up!"

Deep in the valley, the priestess Miroku suddenly opened her eyes and let out a clear shout!

Om-! ! !

The massive sealing array already inscribed beneath her suddenly erupted with a towering golden beam of light!

Countless golden rune chains, like living serpents, shot out from the pillar of light, precisely wrapping around each of the demon's enormous tentacles and its disgusting core!

Zizizi!

The sacred sealing power clashed and annihilated with the evil demonic chakra, producing a piercing sound!

The demon roared in pain and rage, struggling wildly. Its immense power shook the entire valley, and rocks fell from the mountain walls that had been reinforced by the Han!

"Reinforce the seal!"

Despite the dizziness from the mental shock and the immense fatigue from the chakra depletion, Ebizo, Han, Kakashi, Guy, and the others unhesitatingly poured the remaining chakra in their bodies into the valley floor, merging it into the golden sealing pillar!

Earthy yellow, sand black, lightning purple, and azure blue—four mighty torrents of chakra surged in, instantly making the golden rune chains thicker and brighter, as if they were solid gold!

The struggles of the demon were finally suppressed little by little by the powerful combined sealing force. Its huge body was forcibly dragged by countless chains and imprisoned little by little in the core area of ​​the magic circle, forming an energy cocoon that was constantly twisting and expanding, interwoven with golden light and dark purple evil energy!

"Come on!"

Ebizo, watching the demon temporarily imprisoned but whose energy cocoon was fluctuating violently and could erupt at any moment, shouted hoarsely.

"This seal won't last much longer! We must get to Fengmo Mountain immediately!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Uchiha Ei once again carried the priestess Miroku, who was extremely weak from activating the seal with all her might.

Before they could even catch their breath, the group dragged their exhausted bodies and pushed their speed to the limit, becoming several afterimages as they desperately rushed towards their final destination—the Sealed Demon Mountain of the Swamp Country!

In the valley behind them, the temporarily sealed demon was letting out an unwilling, earth-shaking roar, and cracks were spreading visibly across the golden cocoon of sealing light.

Time has become the most luxurious thing.

The light barrier of the sealing barrier in the distance temporarily isolated the suffocating evil chakra and frenzied roars of the demon.

But the acrid smell of sulfur in the air and the resentful rumbling tremors from the depths of the earth beneath their feet reminded everyone how precious this moment of respite was.

Ebizo coughed heavily, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his cloudy old eyes swept over everyone.

The Sand Village elder's puppet was nearly half destroyed in the fierce battle just now, and its voice was hoarse with fatigue:

"It must be restored as soon as possible!"

The demons could break free of their temporary seal at any moment; we can't afford to waste time.

"agree."

The word "Han" in Iwagakure is concise and to the point. The blazing white steam rising from his body slowly recedes, revealing bronze skin covered with fine burn marks, like cooled lava.

He sat down cross-legged, his heavy breathing carrying a scorching heat, clearly indicating that the Boiling Release technique was putting a tremendous strain on his body.

On the Konoha side, Kakashi was still panting, while Guy was supporting himself on his knees, large beads of sweat dripping down his face, the muscle-tearing sensation from forcibly opening the Sixth Gate coming on in waves.

Chapter 185, Sealing Demon Mountain

Uchiha Sō silently and gently put the shrine maiden down from his back.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, her body swayed slightly. The enormous energy consumed in maintaining the sealing barrier had almost drained her already meager chakra. Her face was so pale it was almost transparent. Only her eyes, gazing at Mount Fengmo, burned with a chilling, all-or-nothing resolve.

"Your Highness, please hurry up and recover."

Uchiha Sho's voice was calm and even as he handed over a specially made soldier's ration pill.

The priestess did not refuse, took the medicine, closed her eyes to regulate her breathing, but her tightly pursed lips and slightly trembling fingertips betrayed the turmoil in her heart.

Uchiha Elephant's gaze swept across her face, and deep within the vision of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, he saw the massive, complex mass of chakra belonging to the demon.

At this moment, bound in the valley by a layer of pale purple light membrane, it was like an enraged trapped beast, frantically crashing against the sealing barrier, each impact causing the earth's veins to tremble slightly.

In his eyes, this power was too violent, but lacked purity and refinement, and was far from being a real threat.

His desire to win over this "good helper for infrastructure" became even clearer.

The brief respite passed in tense tension. When the priestess opened her eyes again, though still weak, the unwavering will of a guardian of the demon kingdom had been rekindled.

"go!"

She gave a low shout, her voice carrying an undeniable penetrating power.

Without another word, the group shot off like arrows, heading once again toward their final destination—Mount Fumo in the Swamp Country!

Uchiha Sō still carried the shrine maiden on his back. His figure leaped and bounded through the rugged mountains and forests, yet remained remarkably stable, as if he were carrying not a person, but a light feather.

This effortless composure stands in stark contrast to his identity as a "Konoha genin".

However, the final stretch of road leading to Fengmo Mountain became a veritable corridor of death.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground suddenly cracked open, and countless terracotta warriors clad in ancient and tattered armor burst forth from the earth. They were silent, but their movements carried the fierce momentum of a thousand troops charging forward. The decaying swords, spears, and halberds merged into a gleaming jungle of death, fiercely attacking the breakout team!

What's even more chilling is that among the terracotta warriors, there are many living figures with twisted limbs and grotesque faces—

Those were remnants of the Yellow Springs Cult whose minds had been completely corrupted by demons. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they roared like wild beasts. They brandished their weapons and charged forward recklessly, using their own flesh and blood to serve as shields and vanguards for the terracotta warriors. Their offensive was frenzied and chaotic.

"Sand Iron Boundary Law!"

A sharp glint flashed in Ebizo's turbid eyes, and his withered hands rapidly formed hand seals.

The earth trembled, and countless black iron sands, gleaming with a cold metallic light, gushed out like fountains, instantly forming several huge walls of iron sand covered with thorns and spikes, blocking the path of the terracotta warriors and living puppets as they charged.

The sharp iron thorns mercilessly pierced through the decaying terracotta figures and tore apart the bodies of living people, splattering filthy blood and broken terracotta shards everywhere.

However, the subsequent puppets, stepping on the remains of their companions, climbed and charged fearlessly, causing the Iron Sand Wall to groan under the strain.

Earth Release: Rock Collapse!

A deep, muffled voice, like muffled thunder, rang out.

He slammed his fists into the ground, and large sections of rock in front of him cracked, rose, and were compressed!

It was as if the earth had opened its giant jaws, engulfing dozens of terracotta warriors and living puppets into twisted cracks in the rock, instantly crushing them into dust, and tearing open a gap of flesh and stone amidst the surging tide of puppets.

"Leaf Whirlwind!"

"Purple Lightning!"

Kai and Kakashi's figures intersected in the gap.

Kai's physical skills were as fast as the wind and as fierce as a whistling wind. Every kick was accompanied by a sharp whistling sound as it tore through the air, sending the approaching puppets flying and shattering them.

Kakashi transformed into a leaping bolt of lightning, his purple lightning spear radiating destructive energy as it precisely pierced the cores of one living puppet after another, which posed a greater threat among the terracotta warriors. Wherever the lightning passed, charred corpses fell to the ground.

Uchiha Xiang carried the priestess on his back, closely following Kakashi's lightning bolt.

The Kusanagi sword in his hand transformed into a cold, icy barrier. Occasionally, a stray creature would break through the blockade of his teammates and rush forward. With a flash of sword light, both the hard terracotta warriors and the fragile flesh and blood would be instantly cleaved in two.

His movements were concise and efficient to the extreme, with not a single ounce of energy wasted. The Eternal Kaleidoscope slowly spun beneath his mask, its vision piercing through the chaotic battlefield, firmly locking onto the direction of Mount Fengmo, and...

The evil core that was getting closer and more violent was becoming more and more apparent in my perception.

Finally, the group arrived at their destination, "Fengmo Mountain".

Looking at the treacherous mountain before him, Ebizo suppressed his unease and asked.

"Is this the Demon-Sealing Mountain?"

The priestess nodded and then explained.

“There is a natural lava pool inside Mount Fengmo that can suppress the evil and cold chakra of the demons, making it an excellent place to seal the demons. Not to mention, there is also a special altar on it.”

Soon, everyone saw the altar the witch had mentioned.

The altar is built of huge black rocks, and its surface is engraved with intricate and mysterious sealing runes. Despite the passage of time, it still exudes a faint yet tenacious protective power.

"arrive!"

Kakashi gave a low shout, his voice carrying a barely perceptible gasp.

Almost at the same instant the squad broke through the puppet encirclement and stepped onto the black boulder at the edge of the altar—
