"Wheel Graveyard - Border Prison"
Before the words were finished, four invisible shadows instantly appeared beside the Thor's incarnation, Sansho, Bing, and another great demon who was trying to ambush Xingcha!
"Spatial confinement!"
The lightning surrounding Thor's avatar instantly froze! Misaki's massive body was firmly fixed in mid-air!
Bing's sorcery spell was extinguished the moment it lit up! The great demon who had launched the sneak attack remained in a pouncing posture, like a flying insect trapped in amber!
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"
Four muffled sounds rang out almost simultaneously. Madara Uchiha's physical body didn't even move; he merely stirred his mind.
The attack of the Limbo Shadow is simple yet deadly—Space Cut!
Thor's incarnation split open, its core containing divine power crushed; the massive bull's head of Sansho separated from its body; Bing was cut in half at the waist by an invisible force; and the great demon that launched the sneak attack was torn to pieces by the spatial power that erupted from within!
Another instant kill!
The four guardians and great demons, who were powerful enough to dominate a region in this world, were like lambs to the slaughter in front of Madara's "Limbo: Border Jail". They could not even put up a decent resistance and perished instantly!
Blood and fragments of demonic power rained down like a storm, staining the lush forests of Hachihara red.
Despair, like the deepest darkness, instantly swallowed up all the remaining rebels.
Even Nyanko-sensei (Madara) showed a look of near despair for the first time.
The gap is too huge! This isn't even a battle on the same level!
“Takashi…”
The cat teacher's massive body trembled slightly, protecting Natsume even more tightly, and growled:
"Quickly use the Book of Friends! Summon the strongest! This is our last chance!"
Natsume's face was ashen, and the immense grief he felt as he witnessed the instantaneous deaths of his guardians and friends nearly overwhelmed him.
But he knew that now was not the time for grief!
Trembling, he pulled out the seemingly ordinary Book of Friends from his pocket. The pages turned rapidly without wind under the terrifying pressure.
"In my name, Natsume Takashi! Call upon your true names, fulfill the contract! Return! Ancient beings who protect the peace of this world! Call upon your names—Hira! Sasafune! Gen! Tatsumi!..."
With all his might, Natsume shouted out names that contained immense power and ancient contracts!
His spiritual power surged into the Book of Friends like a burning flame, and the pages burst forth with an unprecedentedly dazzling golden light!
Chapter 271, Taking Over the Middle Thousand Worlds
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Several auras, which had been dormant for countless years and were far more ancient, vast, and closer to the origin of the world than those who had fallen before, suddenly erupted in various parts of the world!
In the east, a sacred mountain shrouded in mist collapsed with a deafening roar. A dragon god (Xuan), ten thousand feet long, with scales shimmering with starlight and crystal antlers on its head, soared into the sky, its roar shattering the clouds for thousands of miles!
It represents the world's water veins and the laws of life.
In the west, deep within a desolate desert, the yellow sand coalesces into a towering "Sand Giant" (Chenwei), whose every step resonates with the earth and evokes a lament. It controls the pulse of the earth and the will of the desert.
In the south, at the heart of an endless forest, the branches and leaves of countless towering ancient trees converge wildly, forming a "Forest God" (Sasafusa) composed of pure life force, with an indistinct face yet exuding an aura of both benevolence and majesty.
In the north, a perpetually frozen ice field cracked open, and the cold air condensed into a "Frost Giant" (Hira) made of ice crystals, wielding a giant axe. The extreme cold froze the space!
Four ancient gods/great demons, who possess eternal status and are closely connected to the core laws of the world, are forcibly awakened and summoned by Natsume using himself as a medium under the forced contract summoning of the Book of Friends!
They represent the most fundamental forces in this world: water, earth, life, and death (cold)!
Four vast and boundless forces traversed space and instantly converged above Bayuan!
Their auras intertwined and merged, forming a golden-green energy surge powerful enough to shake the Heavenly Court's Spirit-Locking Array!
The will of the world itself seemed to awaken at this moment, silently empowering this last protective force in an attempt to drive out the invaders.
"Oh?"
A barely perceptible flicker finally appeared in Madara Uchiha's crimson Rinnegan, no longer pure indifference, but a kind of...cold interest as if he had seen prey worth taking action.
"Eternal status? Four deities? Interesting. It seems that booklet is the core of the laws governing this world."
He slowly raised his hand, and the Heavenly Swamp Spear (projection) pointed at the four ancient gods radiating terrifying pressure:
"Now that's enough to make me take it a little more seriously."
"You ants, let me show you what true...divine power is!"
Madara Uchiha vanished from his spot in an instant. The next moment, he appeared above the towering dragon god (mysterious)!
With a piercing shriek that seemed to tear through space, the massive black spear in his hand stabbed down fiercely!
"Roar--!"
The dragon god roared in fury, and its star-like scales shone brightly, gathering a shield of floodwaters powerful enough to engulf the continent!
At the same time, the Forest God (Sasafune) swung a giant whip made of life force at Madara's back; the Sand Giant (Tatsumi) raised a giant hand that blotted out the sky and slammed down; the Frost Giant (Hira) swung his ice axe with a chilling aura that could freeze the soul!
The combined attack of the four Eternals was enough to instantly shatter an ordinary minor world!
Faced with this devastating attack, Madara Uchiha's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Planetary Devastation - Modified!"
He clasped his hands together, and a tiny, pitch-black sphere that seemed capable of swallowing all light instantly appeared in his palms!
Immediately, an irresistible and terrifying gravitational force originating from the level of rules erupted from the center of the sphere!
Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!
Space is wailing!
The earth is cracking!
The flood shield condensed by the Dragon God was instantly twisted, torn apart, and forcibly pulled toward the black sphere along with its massive body!
The Forest God's giant whip of life broke apart inch by inch and was devoured!
The giant hand of the sand giant disintegrated into a sky full of yellow sand, which was then captured by gravity!
The frost giant's massive ice axe, along with its arm, was forcibly torn apart and shattered by the distorted space!
"Do not--!"
Natsume let out a heart-wrenching scream. He could feel the true name contracts of the four ancient beings on the Book of Friends flashing wildly and becoming extremely unstable!
Madara Uchiha hovered at the core of Planet Chibaku Tensei, like a god who controlled a black hole.
He ignored the four Eternals whose bodies were being pulled apart by gravity and were beginning to disintegrate. His cold gaze pierced through the chaotic energy field and precisely locked onto Natsume Takashi, who was being protected by Nyanko-sensei below, and the booklet in his hand that was emitting a stubborn golden light.
"Found you, bug."
Madara's figure disappeared again, and the shadow of Limbo silently imprisoned the space around Natsume, making him unable to even move his fingers!
"That artifact of the world, and your very soul, have returned to the Heavenly Court."
Madara's true form, imbued with absolute power and a chilling pronouncement, appeared before Natsume as if by teleportation. A hand wreathed in destructive energy ignored the demonic flames that Nyanko-sensei desperately spewed out and went straight for the Book of Friends and Natsume's head in Natsume's hands!
Absolute crushing victory!
Even the existence of eternal beings only made him take it slightly seriously!
The last hope of the Natsume's Book of Friends world seems to be extinguished completely by this one claw!
……
Madara Uchiha's hand, carrying the power to tear through space and annihilate souls, was only a hair's breadth away from Natsume's head and the Book of Friends that emitted a stubborn golden light.
The demonic flames of Nyanko-sensei (Madara) struck his protective energy, but it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, failing to even create a ripple.
Despair, like the deepest ice, froze Natsume's blood and soul.
However, in that one in ten thousandth of a second, a sudden change occurred!
The Book of Friends, which Madara regarded as the "World's Treasure," held in Natsume's arms, burst forth with unprecedented brilliance when its master faced utter destruction and when Natsume infused it with his purest spiritual power, imbued with endless sorrow and a strong will to protect.
That wasn't the light of power, but... the backlash of the laws!
"Om-!"
A resounding, grand and poignant echo, seemingly emanating from the very origin of the world, resounded!
The pages of the Book of Friends flipped wildly, and the true names of countless yokai, whose names had been returned by Natsume or were still recorded, shone brightly at this moment!
Each name represents a contract, a bond, a "connection" recognized by the laws of the world.
Takashi Natsume, the boy who inherited Reiko's bloodline, treats all the strange beings in the world with a gentle heart and wins the hearts of countless yokai, is himself the most compatible and core "spirit" of this "world vessel"!
The protective obsession that erupted from his burning life and soul at this moment, through the Book of Friends, a wondrous artifact of the laws, triggered a backlash from the most core and fundamental laws of this world: "spiritual symbiosis" and "true name contract"!
A beam of light, indescribable in color, containing countless threads of bondage, and purely composed of the laws of contracts, suddenly burst forth from the Book of Friends. It did not attack Madara, but instantly wrapped around the hand that Madara had grabbed, and then spread wildly along his arm toward his body!
"Um?!"
For the first time, a clear change appeared on Madara Uchiha's perpetually icy and indifferent face—a hint of surprise!
He felt an extremely strange and stubborn force eroding his energy and will!
This force wasn't strong, not even enough to shake his vast, ocean-like chakra, but it was like the stickiest spider web, carrying the characteristics of a law of "binding," "agreement," and "inviolability," attempting to forcibly establish some kind of...contractual connection with him?!
What alarmed him even more was that this power of law was extremely pure and primal, and even faintly repelled the laws of plunder and domination within his body that originated from the divine tree and the Great Luo Heavenly Court!
It's like pure water being dropped into a pot of boiling oil!
Although the oil (his power) holds an absolute advantage, the stubborn existence of the water droplet (the law of the contract) is itself an "impurity," an interference with absolute control!
"Contamination of the laws?"
A fierce glint flashed in Madara's eyes, and the light of his Rinnegan surged as he attempted to tear apart and annihilate this strange contract law with brute force and eye techniques.
However, at the very moment his power erupted, Natsume, who was imprisoned by the shadow of Limbo below, bled from all seven orifices, his body cracking like shattered porcelain. Yet, he stared intently at Madara, using the last ounce of his soul power to utter a name—not the true name of a yokai, but the name that originated from the depths of his bloodline, the name of the original creator of the Book of Friends:
"Grandma Lingzi...please help me...protect everyone..."
boom--!!!
The pillar of light from the Book of Friends suddenly took on a desolate yet powerful eerie purple hue! A phantom yet incredibly clear figure, as if stepping out from the river of time, faintly appeared behind Natsume—
With her silver hair flying in the wind and her eyes both arrogant and gentle, it was none other than the phantom of Natsume Reiko!
