Faced with the giant serpent, Louhu no longer held back and unleashed his ultimate killing move:

"The field unfolds like a coffin surrounded by an iron mountain."

As soon as this move was unleashed, a massive amount of magical power poured out, transforming into a jet-black shell that enveloped both the giant serpent and the other person.

The lava surged, distorting the air with its intense heat. Atop the scorching rocks, Louhu stared solemnly at the giant serpent standing not far away, and said:

"I never expected you could force me to use this move. Enjoy the last moments of your life!"

Chapter 124: Ten Days After the Challenge

The domain combines [environmental advantage] and [guaranteed hit]. In battle, once a mage deploys the domain, the battle is practically over.

But the giant serpent remained completely unfazed, as if whether or not Louhu's domain was activated had no impact on the battle. This enraged Louhu, who roared:

"Damn it! Don't underestimate me!"

After speaking, Lou Hu no longer concealed anything. He condensed his highest level of mastery of the technique [Extreme Meteor]. Due to the limited space in the domain, in order to successfully unleash this move, Lou Hu improved the killing move in a short period of time, condensing it into a plasma fireball with extremely high density.

When the ever-concentrating plasma fireball hurtled towards the giant serpent, it didn't even cause it to panic for a moment. The serpent closed its eyes, and its body began to emit a white light.

Louhu knew this was a sign that the giant serpent was about to teleport, so he said:

"Trying to dodge my attack with teleportation? Ignorant! Within this domain, every attack of mine is guaranteed to hit! No matter where you teleport to, you will surely die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the plasma fireball shot out, its terrifying power causing the domain to tremble. The moment it hit its target, Louhu could no longer withstand such a huge drain on his magical power, spitting out blood and forcibly dispelling the domain.

Seeing that the spot had turned into scorched earth, with no trace of the giant snake, he could not contain his joy:

"Great! I...I killed him!"

The very next second after he uttered those words, a pillar of spiritual energy emerged from beneath his feet, instantly enveloping him in terrifying power.

Lou Hu let out a wail and knelt on the ground. He stared in disbelief at the giant serpent that had appeared before him. Its perfect body was completely unscathed. His pupils dilated in shock, as if he had seen a ghost.

"How... how are you still alive?! How did you dodge my attack?!"

Orochi remained silent. The fact that he possessed invincibility frames during the instant he used teleportation could not be revealed, even if the opponent was just a dying person.

Faced with the devastating leak, the great serpent no longer held back. He pointed one finger to the sky and one to the earth, while muttering:

"Since you are determined to die, then so be it."

As he spoke, the great serpent paused, and his entire body began to radiate a dazzling light. Bathed in holy light, he appeared otherworldly. He said:

"In heaven and on earth, I alone am supreme... Let me return to nothingness."

As the words fell, pure magical power poured out. Louhu's pupils shrank, and even escape became a luxury. Even as one of the Four Calamities, he was powerless to resist and turned into ashes...

After killing Louhu, the giant serpent felt no guilt. He simply looked around to see where he had fought Louhu.

Seeing the stone-paved paths, stone benches, stone tables, and lush greenery all around, it was clear that the attack had taken place from the Panxing Sect headquarters to the nearby park.

Orochi didn't want to cause too much of a commotion, so he prepared to leave before his whereabouts were discovered. However, before he could leave, a figure arrived and locked onto Orochi, who had just unleashed his ultimate attack.

"So you were here all along! I've been looking for you for ages, you giant snake."

Upon hearing the voice, the giant snake looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in a black uniform with long white hair standing in mid-air, looking at him with great interest.

The serpent's expression remained unchanged, showing neither sorrow nor joy.

"Who are you?"

"You don't even know my name? You thought my name was already known throughout the entire world of sorcery? How disappointing."

Gojo Satoru was quite disappointed by the question about Orochi, but her disappointment only lasted a few seconds before she immediately adopted a serious expression:

"Ahem, let me formally introduce myself. I am the head of the Gojo family, a current teacher at a high-level sorcery academy, and the strongest sorcerer in modern times, possessing six eyes and limitless techniques! I am Gojo Satoru!"

Such an introduction is far too embarrassing. If it were an ordinary person, they would only be considered crazy, but it was Gojo Satoru who said it.

That confidence was enough to prove that what she said was undoubtedly true, but whether it was true or false was unimportant. Before thoroughly gathering information on all the cursed spirits and sorcerers, Orochi's fighting spirit was very low. He said:

"The time is not yet ripe; you should leave now."

The original meaning of the sentence was to drive away, but Gojo Gono interpreted it differently.

Gojo Satoru looked at the ruined surroundings and the remnants of cursed energy, realizing that a fierce battle had just taken place. She nodded slightly and said:

"You've just been through a battle and aren't in good shape. Even if I win, it wouldn't be a fair victory for me. Fine, then let's set the battle for ten days from now. I'll defeat you fair and square then, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Orochi, who was about to leave, paused. He looked at Gojou Satoru, intrigued by this confident yet arrogant fellow.

"You're quite interesting, so you're called Gojo Satoru? I'll remember you."

"I will personally attend the battle ten days from now. Until we meet again."

After saying that, the giant snake turned white and vanished instantly, having teleported away.

Looking at the spot where the giant snake had left, Gojo Satoru pondered for a moment. She hadn't been able to figure out the principle behind the snake's teleportation, but she had a vague feeling that the snake's teleportation was achieved by eliminating something.

After thinking for a long time, Gojo Satoru still had no clue, so he simply stopped thinking about it. As for the battle with Orochi, Gojo Satoru did not intend to tell anyone, since it was not something that needed to be announced to the world.

However, not long after, Hana, a special-grade cursed spirit born from humanity's fear of nature, took the initiative to fight Orochi because of Louhu's death.

This time, their battle was not limited to a small area like the one between Orochi and Ruko. Their battle directly covered the urban areas of two nearby concentric circles. A large number of vines and thick plant roots destroyed buildings and the ground, and the resulting collapses caused the accidental deaths of many ordinary people.

In the end, the battle ended with Hanami's death, and the number of people who died as a result reached 1,300, with three times that number injured.

From this point on, the higher-ups in the jutsu world realized just how powerful a threat Orochi was. Based on the destruction it caused in battle, they classified it as a Special Class and ordered Gojo Satoru to go and eliminate it.

Seeing that the situation could no longer be concealed, Gojo Satoru finally revealed his duel with Orochi. This news immediately caused great distress to the higher-ups, who ordered Gojo Satoru to deal with Orochi immediately.

But Gojo Satoru pointed out incisively:

"That battle that killed thousands of people was not Orochi's intention; it was just that cursed spirits came to him. Rather than killing him, it's better to deal with those cursed spirits."

The higher-ups in the sorcery world were well aware of these things. However, the appearance of two top-tier sorcerer spirits in a short period of time suggested that there were likely many more. Accustomed to bullying the weak and fearing the strong, they naturally chose to pick on the easy target.

They originally intended to force Gojo Satoru to kill the giant serpent, but under Gojo Satoru's tyrannical power, the higher-ups of the jutsu world had no choice but to give in...

Chapter 125: The Annihilation Return Plan

In Sendai City, at the Itadori Yuuhito residence, the idea of ​​inviting Lilith and the others to celebrate the festival was not a sudden whim, as the group had not seen each other for over a decade.

The real purpose of this gathering was actually for the [Death Annihilation Return] that she had been planning since a thousand years ago. To start the [Death Annihilation Return], she first needed to establish ten independent barriers in various parts of Japan to set the stage for the swimmers to accumulate magical power for their battles.

However, So didn't have the ability to establish ten independent barriers across Japan. The entire country was enveloped by Tengen's barrier, so if So wanted to achieve this, he could only rely on Tengen's barrier.

This raises another question: if a barrier is built on top of Tianyuan's barrier, the barrier can be immediately dismantled whenever Tianyuan wants to. Therefore, to activate [Death Annihilation Return], a plan is indispensable: kill Tianyuan and absorb Tianyuan's control and assimilation authority over the barrier.

To achieve this goal, the current Suo is far from enough. Since Fuheshen broke into the Hongxing Palace eleven years ago, the sorcery world immediately realized that the high-level barrier was not all-pervasive, and arranged a team of twelve first-level sorcerers to protect Tianyuan.

As for where these first-level sorcerers came from? Of course, they came from the Zenin family, the Gojo family, and the Kamo family.

At this point, someone might ask, what difference is there between twelve level-one mages and ants in front of So? That's absolutely true. With the Reversal Spell, the Anti-Gravity Mechanism, and a thousand years of experience, killing twelve level-one mages is child's play.

What if we add Fuhe Shen'er, who comprehends the core of the physical body?

Eleven years ago, after Fushiguro Jinji and Gojo Satoru became close friends, he took 700 million yen on vacation and squandered the entire fortune in less than four years.

In order to have an even more enjoyable vacation next time, Fukushige decided to take on another assassination mission.

Fortunately, lacking start-up capital, he approached Gojo Satoru and, through her introduction, took on the security work for Ryousei-gu for a monthly salary of ten million yen. Otherwise, a bloodbath would have swept through the assassin world...

With a formidable lineup of twelve first-level sorcerers plus Fukuro Jinji, Ryousei-gu is arguably the safest place besides Gojo Satoru's side. If Zoro enters Ryousei-gu, his only options are to eat the Heavenly Reversal or to escape.

So, after Lilith and the others had finished the feast she had meticulously prepared, she finally dropped her pretense and addressed everyone present in an extremely sincere tone:

"Actually, this invitation to everyone is not just for a simple dinner. Let me be frank, I want to start [Death Annihilation Return]."

These words immediately went unanswered. Lilith was discussing how to beat "Minecraft" when Yuujin Itadori advised her to look up a walkthrough. Of course, as a gaming expert, Lilith refused to look up a walkthrough, saying it would be a desecration of the game.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Suo's eye twitched, feeling somewhat embarrassed. To save face, she coughed lightly, trying to get their attention, but when that didn't work, she coughed louder:

"Cough cough...cough cough! Cough cough!!"

This time, Sue's voice finally caught the attention of the group. The group, who had been discussing why wooden pickaxes couldn't mine iron ore, all looked at her, their eight eyes filled with confusion.

After a moment of silence, Hisahito Itadori broke the silence by saying:

"Mom, are you sick? Why do you keep coughing?"

Although the others didn't speak, their eyes were filled with the same confusion as Hisahito Itadori.

Having lived for over a thousand years, when had she ever encountered such an embarrassing situation? Faced with the gazes of the four men, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into and wait until they forgot about it before coming out again.

[On the bright side, at least I've attracted their attention. I can use this opportunity to send Lilith and the others to the Red Star Palace to deal with Tengen...]

Suo comforted herself and forced herself to calm down before preparing to explain the plan. However, before she could speak, the group went to Itadori Hisahito's room, chatting and laughing.

Seeing this, Suo's face stiffened, and he could only try to clear the table by doing so as to make himself less embarrassed...

In the end, So still told Lilith and the others about his plan to "solve the Tengen".

As she said this, she deliberately avoided mentioning Itadori Yujin. Given Itadori Yujin's personality, if he knew about this, he would definitely stop it. After all, Itadori Yujin has always valued life, regardless of whose life it is.

When So revealed his entire plan, the snake was the first to refuse to help him, giving the reason that "as a mountain god, how can I attack Tengen? She is the core of the barrier of all of Japan. Without her, the world will be in chaos."

Knowing the snake, Iso knew that his words were half true and half false. The reason he was unwilling to take action was most likely that he wanted to go home and play games, rather than caring about whether the world was in chaos or not.

Fortunately, Lilith, who had nothing better to do, patted her chest and readily agreed to So's request. Since Lilith was going, Amelia, as his maid, naturally had to go with her.

Now, So had finally gathered two helpers. After pointing out the direction of the Death Star Palace to the two of them, So prepared to leave home to begin the Death Annihilation Return Journey. Before she even stepped out of the door, she suddenly remembered Itadori Yuujin, who was home alone.

[The time required to start the Death's Return journey is quite long. During this time, will Hisahito be able to take care of himself? What if he gets hungry? What if he gets injured? What if there are bad guys...?]

Even though Yuujin Itadori has Sukuna inside him, Sora is still worried about him. To ensure that Yuujin doesn't go hungry while she's away, she revives Sukuna's loyal follower, Rime, according to the contract.

When Rime was resurrected, upon seeing the woman with the scar on her forehead, her first question was:

"Suo? What era is this? Where is Lord Sukuna?"

Seeing that Rimei's first words after her resurrection were about Su Nuo, Suo couldn't help but admire Rimei's loyalty. However, despite her admiration, she still said:

“A thousand years have passed since your time, and as for Su Nuo… the reason for resurrecting you is precisely for this.”

After revealing that Itadori Yuujin was Sukuna's vessel, So naturally asked Rime to take care of Itadori Yuujin while she was away.

Although Rime noticed So's ulterior motives, he still agreed to So's request to take care of Itadori Hisahito for Sukuna's sake.

With Rime by his side, So finally felt relieved and left to begin his journey of returning from the brink of death. Rime, on the other hand, followed Sukuna's cursed power and found Itadori Yuujin playing a game in his room.

"Hey! Who are you? How dare you just barge into someone's house?!"
