Heaven has bound me to weakness? I angrily unleash the Eight Gates!

"Sister Mingming! Are you alright?!"

The songstress rushed over, helped Mingming up, her face full of worry.

"Little songstress, don't worry about me."

Mingming supported the songstress's shoulders and comforted her.

"You all stay away for now, leave this to me."

Zenji Jinsuke looked at the cursed spirit rising from the ruins and a smile appeared on his lips.

We finally caught a top-tier one, and not just any ordinary top-tier one.

"Be careful, this cursed spirit is not simple!" Mingming quickly reminded him.

"So he didn't have any magical power. No wonder I didn't notice."

The cursed spirit emerged from the ruins, and the shredded flesh on its head began to regenerate. It was a little angry after being hit on the head twice.

"Humans who don't even have the power of magic, have you thought about how you're going to die?"

The cursed spirit gripped the thunder sword in his hand and swung it fiercely, sending a bolt of lightning slashing towards Zenji Jinjie.

Zen-in-shiki casually waved his hand, scattering the clouds and shattering the thunder.

"Another arrogant spirit has arrived."

Zen Monk Shenjie brought Youyun closer together, combining them into a staff, and then transformed into a blur as he rushed towards the cursed spirit.

If he kills it too late, someone else might snatch it away; he doesn't want the meat in his mouth to escape.

"Hmph! Only its speed is decent."

The cursed spirit snorted coldly, his body bursting with lightning as he engaged in battle with Zenji Jinsuke.

The two afterimages collided repeatedly, generating violent shocks as they struck each other from the ground into the air and back down.

"Sister Mingming, should we help him?"

Anka swallowed hard, looking at Zenin Jinsuke, whose strength was comparable to that of this powerful Special Grade warrior, and was somewhat shocked.

So this aloof uncle is actually this strong?

"How can I help? Your technique won't work on him."

Mingming rolled her eyes at her.

Since the opponent has no magical power, the songstress's support spells are ineffective. She is currently injured and cannot help the opponent either.

As for other sorcerers below level two, it's good enough if they don't make things worse.

"Yes."

The songstress realized that this aloof uncle had no magical power.

"By the way, isn't Kusakabe-sensei in the same group as this guy? Why hasn't he shown up yet?"

"Ha...ha...ha...we've finally arrived!"

Just as the songstress was wondering what was going on, Kusakabe arrived, panting heavily.

He had sped up and run to get here so quickly, and seeing Zenin Jinsuke already fighting a Special Grade Cursed Spirit, he couldn't help but remark:

"Did Mr. Jinsuke fly here?"

"How are you? Songstress, Mingming, are you alright?"

Kusakabe looked at the two geishas and asked them questions.

"If Mr. Shenjie had arrived even a second later, you wouldn't have seen us."

The songstress briefly recounted the events that had transpired.

"Is this cursed spirit that powerful?"

Kusakabe stared into thought as he watched Zenin Jinsuke, who was launching an attack with a smile on his face like a madman, and the Special Grade Cursed Spirit who was struggling to keep up.

"By the way, did Jinsuke-sensei simply want to kill the cursed spirit?"

What rumors are there to prove themselves? This scene looks like they're trying to prove themselves.

Chapter 28 Domain Expansion, Evolution!

"Human! You are strong! But you are still no match for me!"

The cursed spirit roared, and the wounds on its body continued to heal.

At the same time, lightning crackled between the scales, shouting, "Die!"

Wielding the Thunder Sword, thunder dragons surged in the clouds, falling like divine punishment and bombarding Zenji Jinsuke.

The power of the lightning strikes should not be underestimated. Zenji Jinsuke kept dodging, and with his physical strength, he could withstand all the lightning without being seriously injured, but there was no need to.

Looking at the arrogant cursed spirit, he pondered how to kill it with a single blow.

This cursed spirit is no weaker than the Four Calamities, and its talent is comparable to that of a real person; it can also wield the power of thunder.

If it is allowed to continue growing, it may one day reach the level of Sunu.

After all, it's rare to find a cursed spirit that's solely focused on becoming stronger.

"It's really troublesome."

Zenji Jinsuke was already getting impatient. Normally, he would probably want to have some fun with this cursed spirit.

But now, Xia Youjie and Wutiao Wu could arrive here at any time.

Back then, it was much harder to snatch kills.

Looking at the cloud-like object in his hand, Zen Temple Shenjie regretted it a little. He should have gotten a few more spell tools from Shen'er.

You Yun's strength is indeed excessive, but against a guy with high defense, fast speed, and strong recovery ability, you still have to use the Soul Release Blade to kill him instantly.

"Hahahaha! Human! Now you know how powerful I am!"

"You mere sorcerer, you're nothing but a tool for me to become stronger! And you, a fellow who doesn't even know how to use spells, can't even offer me the slightest help! You might as well just die!"

The cursed spirit didn't want to get entangled with the man in front of her.

"The field expands!"

"The Calamity Thunder Palace!"

Using the surrounding buildings as a vessel, the cursed spirit activated its domain, enveloping Zenji Shinsuke within it.

Endless lightning raged within the domain, and a gate-like structure appeared within it, with the cursed spirit standing beneath it, awakening countless roaring bolts of lightning.

"Using floors as a domain barrier isn't too stupid."

Zenji Jinsuke looked at the sky filled with thunder without the slightest tension.

He could even leave the floor and exit the other party's territory at any time if he wanted to.

Although the domain is very strong, it cannot contain him, and its guaranteed hit effect is useless against him.

If the other party hadn't used the building as a shell, their domain wouldn't have been able to pull him in.

“I know you’re special, so I’ll kill you before you can escape.”

The entire area was filled with lightning. If the opponent took a single step, they would be engulfed by the lightning unless they could withstand the damage and escape.

Looking at the cursed spirit who seemed to have victory in his grasp, Zenji Jinsuke smiled slightly, "Saying you're not too stupid doesn't mean you're not stupid."

He could easily step out of the domain, wait for the opponent's domain to end and enter a spell meltdown state, and then slowly deal with it.

Without any techniques, does the opponent intend to defeat him solely through physical combat?

"You can keep up with my speed because of this lightning spell, right?"

I have to warn you, actually, aside from speed, your physical skills are no different from a newborn baby's in comparison to me.

As soon as the voice fell, Zenji Jinsuke's figure appeared in front of the cursed spirit, his body trailing behind a booming bolt of lightning.

"How can it be?!"

The cursed spirit's pupils shrank sharply; the opponent actually dared to withstand its lightning!

Gripping the Wandering Cloud tightly in his hand, Zenji Jinsuke grinned maliciously. "I forgot to tell you, my body has pretty good resistance to spells."

"boom--!!"

Youyun waved his hand, sending the cursed spirit flying.

The surrounding lightning surged toward him, but most of it was blocked by the swirling clouds, and only a small portion of the attacks landed on him.

The powerful resistance brought by the Heavenly Curse made him feel nothing at all.

His clothes were torn to shreds by the lightning, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"You're probably the first person to get beaten up in your own field."

Zenji Jinsuke launched another attack, brutally beating his opponent.

His opponent was gradually losing speed and could only concentrate on dodging.

My body's recovery speed is starting to lag behind the speed of the injury.

"Crack, click, click."

Kusakabe is wielding a long sword, slashing at the barrier.

He took action the moment the cursed spirit activated its domain.

The interior of the domain is very solid, but the exterior is much more fragile.

"Teacher Shen Jie! Hold on! I'll get you out right away!"

"Bam—!"

Kusakabe's final blow shattered the barrier. "Shin-suke-sensei! Holy crap!"

The moment the barrier was opened, a three-meter-tall figure flew backwards towards him, and he quickly dodged.

"Boom——!!"

The cursed spirit was blasted into another building, causing the floors to tilt and about to collapse.

"It's Kusakabe-sensei, thank you for opening up this field."

Zenji Jinsuke, shirtless, carried Youyun out of the building and expressed his gratitude.

If the other party hadn't opened the domain from the outside, he might have already killed this cursed spirit.

However, since the other party meant well, Zenji Shinsuke didn't take it to heart.

"Gurgle... Shinsuke-sensei, do you need... my help?"

Kusakabe's eye twitched slightly; it seemed like he wasn't really needed in this scene.

"It's alright, leave it to me. Just wait a moment."

"Crash."

The cursed spirit got up again. In just a short while, its injuries had almost completely healed, making it seem like an unkillable cockroach.

"Humanity!!"

The cursed spirit stared at Zenji Jinsuke with an excited expression. As it was being beaten repeatedly, it sensed the direction of its evolution.

It has a clue, it has the spell and the power of incantation, what it lacks now is a perfect and extremely powerful physical body.

If it possessed the physical strength of its opponent, and combined it with the use of various techniques, it should be able to become the strongest!

As he thought about it, the cursed spirit felt more cursed spirits surging within his body. Six wings, like cicada wings, suddenly grew from his back, with golden lightning patterns growing from the tips of the wings, bursting out with strands of lightning.

The armor on his body contracted, and his size seemed to shrink as well, while his muscles became more taut.

It's stronger now!

"boom--!"

With a sudden tremor of its six wings, the cursed spirit, trailing lightning, clenched its fist and slammed towards Zen-in-no-Kai.

Although it can no longer use spells, its magical power has recovered considerably, and with its evolution to a new stage, its speed and strength have both increased.

The fist collided violently with Youyun, unleashing a burst of black and red lightning.
