Even the Fallen Clam Demon's Prison Dragon Break is far beyond its reach.
Even Kujo Toru was struggling to breathe under this oppressive aura.
This was the first time he had ever experienced this feeling.
That was complete suppression at the level of hierarchy.
The strongest priestess of this era and the strongest demon sword of a thousand years—the final result is:
The entire army was routed!
As the Divine Blade struck, golden flames poured out like flowing water, turning the world into a raging sea of fire, igniting half the sky.
The foul odor was almost completely swept away.
The blade flashed fiercely, slashing towards the massive natural disaster that stretched straight to the sky.
Kujo Toru tossed the scabbard at his waist to the shrine maiden, and Kikyo immediately understood.
He immediately stuck the sword sheath into the ground, and with a flick of his wrist, several snow-white talismans fell like snowflakes.
With the seal of the sword sheath as the core, and with the help of her spells, she unfolded layer upon layer of barriers.
The swirling spiritual light formed semi-transparent walls in front of them, before directly colliding with the purplish-black sword light that came with the gale.
boom!
A muffled thunderous sound resounded in everyone's heart.
The technique only managed to block the sword light for a moment before collapsing with a bang, failing to achieve the slightest effect.
Under the control of the shrine maiden Tsubaki, the power of the Ama-no-Kurakumo had long exceeded the limits that the scabbard could suppress.
The sky and earth changed color, and I wondered if it was a sign of something.
With an aura that seemed capable of cleaving the entire world in two, the Ama-no-Murakumo pierced through Kikyo's entire barrier and collided with Kujo Toru's attack.
The golden flames and sea of fire intertwined with the purplish-black sword light, eventually transforming into a magnificent pillar of light that shot straight into the sky!
At the same time, the aura that seemed to destroy everything spread throughout the entire island nation.
In the mountains and forests, in the castles, in the secret realms...
All the monsters unconsciously went weak and almost fell to the ground.
At the mountaintop, a certain young nobleman's gaze turned quite cold, and he subconsciously touched the Natural Fang at his waist.
The little monsters following him fared even worse, their limbs trembling wildly, screaming and yelling to vent their fear:
"A great demon! A great demon who is in no way inferior to the master!"
He didn't react until a dense killing intent enveloped him.
Seeing the terrifying look in his young master's eyes, as if he were about to use him as a test subject, he shuddered, quickly shut his mouth, buried his head between his legs, and bury his head in the sand like an ostrich.
Within Kyoto, countless nobles and commoners looked up, watching helplessly as the sun was obscured by dark clouds, plunging the world into gloom.
In the distant sky, brilliant golden light and dark purple light intertwined and fought each other.
Inside the Imperial Palace, someone, in despair, burst into loud laughter:
"Good! This damned world should have been destroyed long ago!"
Both Hiyori and Kaede looked into the distance with trepidation, their hearts pounding.
The villagers dropped their hoes, collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted, and speechless.
"Hiyori-nee, is it... that my sister and the others... fighting with Ama-Kusanagi?"
Feng even stuttered a little when he spoke.
Although she had traveled with Kikyo to various places to fight demons, those were all ordinary demons who could not escape Kikyo's Demon-Slaying Arrow.
Even the most dangerous situation they encountered was the rampage of a horde of monsters.
At the time, she thought it was an extremely dangerous situation, but compared to the terrifying scene that had completely changed even the celestial phenomena, it was nothing.
Hiyori Iki nodded silently, then clasped her hands together.
Even though she knew that Kujo Toru was a god, she still began to pray to him:
Everyone in Takamagahara, please bless Lord Kujou... you must win!
Don't worry, we will win.
The sudden sound rang in her mind, then vanished in an instant, disappearing like a gentle breeze.
Hiyori Iki suddenly raised her head.
Which deity heard this?
The stalemate lasted only a moment before the sea of fire was engulfed by the raging wind.
The sword light sliced through everything in sight, heading straight for the farthest point in the distance.
Then came the rumbling thunder.
A bottomless canyon appeared on the ground, exposing the rushing underground river directly to the air.
Huge rocks kept sliding down, splashing up large amounts of water.
“I take back what I said earlier. Your strength is not bad; you actually managed to survive.”
Chun walked forward step by step, the clouds of the sky trailing on the ground, the tip of her sword drawing a shallow groove.
The foul air continued to flood into her body.
This is the source of the inexhaustible power of the Kusanagi.
War, slaughter, famine, destruction... these can all stimulate the negative emotions in people's hearts to the greatest extent, and this will make the Kusanagi even stronger.
However, the full-force attack she just unleashed, the Prison Dragon Strike, was still beyond her current capabilities.
Even with an endless supply of foul air replenishing her energy, she still needed a while to recover.
Fortunately, the other person's situation was even worse than hers.
With a cold and aloof face looking up into the air, Kujo Toru was slowly landing, holding Kikyo in his arms.
The illusory golden flames burning on his body had disappeared, and he had returned to his ordinary hunting robe appearance.
He seemed somewhat listless.
That last sword strike had burned away all the spiritual energy in his body, forcing him to exit the Ninety-Nine Weapon Form.
Despite his overestimation of the terror of the peak-level Ama no Murakumo, the actual confrontation still far exceeded his expectations.
In retrospect, when the clam demon fell, it still retained the pride of being a god and did not truly go all out.
Or rather, he only wanted to die in the battle from beginning to end, unlike the shrine maiden Tsubaki in front of him, who had completely merged with Ama-no-Kurakumo.
Rather than calling her the master of the sword, it would be more accurate to say that she is the human form of the Kusanagi sword.
How are you doing?
Kujo Toru looked down at the shrine maiden in his arms.
In the most critical moment, without thinking twice, he used his last bit of spiritual power to rescue the other party.
In the current situation, every combatant is crucial.
"good."
The shrine maiden gave a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, offering her reply.
Her condition was actually alright, because Kujo Toru was the one who mainly took the lead, so her spiritual power was not actually consumed too much.
At most, it's just the cost of two magic-piercing arrows and the energy consumed in creating those barriers.
"Could you give me some time? I need to recover."
Buying time?
Kikyo watched as the shrine maiden Tsubaki approached step by step, and for some reason, she felt like laughing.
He sighed softly and reached into his robes with his right hand.
Then she took out a pink jewel the size of a finger and handed it to him.
Meeting Kujo Toru's somewhat puzzled gaze, he spoke calmly:
"Hold it."
"it is good."
After a moment's thought, Kujo Toru chose to trust the shrine maiden and took the jewel from her hand.
Kikyo looked at him nervously, her eyes filled with something indescribable.
The moment the Shikon Jewel fell into Kujou Tetsu's palm, a layer of black energy surged from within, instantly turning the originally crystal-clear pink jewel into a murky mess.
Is it ultimately not going to work?
Kikyo's eyes showed a hint of disappointment. She carefully observed Kujo Toru's expression and found that he did not seem to be swayed by the power, so she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Just as I was about to take the jewel back, I noticed a burst of pure light emanating from the Shikon Jewel.
The jade, which had been cloudy, regained its former crystal clarity.
It was even cleaner than when she took it out.
What's happening here?
The priestess was somewhat surprised; this was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
Volume 1: Chapter 178 (4K) The Nobleman Under the Moonlight
How are you feeling now?
Kikyo pressed him with a hint of nervousness, inquiring about his current situation.
The Shikon Jewel is a precious jewel formed from the souls of the priestess Midori and many powerful yokai. It can influence the four souls of humans and yokai, granting them immense power.
When the four souls of Aragaki and Shikon are functioning normally, the soul that possesses courage, wisdom, kindness, and love is called a Straight Soul, while the soul that is the opposite is called a Crooked Soul.
When the Shikon Jewel falls into Qu Ling's hands, it will be corrupted, turning into a turbid form, while simultaneously amplifying their distorted four souls.
This is a curse that grants power.
As a human god, Kujo Tetsugen can use the Shikon Jewel and gain power greater than that of ordinary people.
This was also her last resort in preparation for defeating Ame-no-Murakumo.
Although she hesitated for a moment because of the great demonic aura emanating from the Golden Crow, after these days of getting to know him, she was willing to trust Kujo Toru.
I believe he will not be swayed by power.
However, she didn't quite understand the situation regarding the Shikon Jewel.
"I don't feel anything."
Kujo Toru truthfully expressed his feelings and tossed the Shikon Jewel in his hand.
He could sense a powerful force within it, as if he could summon it whenever he had a thought.
But in reality, it doesn't work.
It's because his incarnation and divine identity caused a bug.
Humans cannot imagine things they have never seen. Even Kikyo, based on her knowledge, can be described as a "human god" in this world.
Although they do appear very similar—he is indeed a god yet also human—their inner selves are completely different.
Just as he was unable to close the Wind Cave before, he is now unable to use the Shikon Jewel.
"Is that so...that's troublesome."
Kikyo sighed softly.
His expression quickly returned to calm. He grabbed the bow and stood up from the ground, shielding Kujo Toru behind him.
It is a fact that the Shikon Jewel is useless to this living god, and there is no need to delve into the reasons why.
What needs to be done now is very simple.
She was tasked with stopping Tsubaki and Ama no Murakumo, giving Kujo Toru time to recover his spiritual power.
