Crossover: A Different Inuyasha

Jieluo was the first to launch an attack.

Dozens of fine hairs, accompanied by a piercing shriek that seemed to tear through the air, shot out from all directions like steel needles.

Inuyasha slightly shifted his body and swung out with his right hand—the Soul-Scattering Iron Claw!

With a flash of light, the strands of hair snapped off, and the fragments flew in the sunlight.

"too weak."

Inuyasha's lips curled into a smile, but his fingers trembled slightly—tearing these strands of hair was no different from cutting steel bars.

If it were his old hair, he wouldn't even need his claws; he could just run fast enough to break it with his face without getting hurt.

With the [Thousand Silk Defense], the hardness of hair strands is dozens of times stronger than before.

"is it?"

Jieluo chuckled softly, her slender fingers twitching like butterflies flitting through flowers.

In the next instant, a dense, thumb-thick black hair, covering everything from the rock beneath Inuyasha's feet to every inch of space in mid-air, layered and overlapping, wove together to form an impenetrable cage of death.

Inuyasha swung his claws repeatedly, the light from his claws weaving into a net in the air.

This time, although the hair strands were torn apart, there was a noticeable resistance; each strand required two to three claws to cut completely.

Stray hairs fluttered like black snowflakes, but more strands kept pouring in from all directions, as if there was no end in sight.

Strands of hair swept across the cliff, the hard rock like tofu cut by a sharp blade, leaving deep, bottomless ravines.

The entire cliff trembled violently under the onslaught of the hair, with rocks collapsing and dust obscuring the sky.

The sunlight was cut into countless tiny spots by the strands of hair, flickering on the cliff like a frenzied dance of apocalypse.

Inuyasha laughed, his expression turning serious. "That's interesting."

"Young Master, this is just the beginning."

Yura's fingers flew, and the tail of her hair suddenly expanded into nine fox tails. From nine directions, with extremely strong resilience, they struck Inuyasha at ever-changing angles like nine python whips.

Inuyasha raised his hand and grabbed one of the hairs with his claws—the claw flashed, leaving only a faint white mark on the surface, and the damaged hairs healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What?!" His pupils contracted slightly.

The remaining eight giant tails were already in front of him.

Before Inuyasha could think, he pushed off with his feet and shot backward like an arrow.

"Boom—Boom—Boom—"

As Inuyasha dodged, the giant tail slammed repeatedly into the ground.

One of the sweeps swept through the woods along the cliff edge, scraping away a large section of trees.

Immediately afterwards, the green leaves of those trees turned yellow, withered, and fell off at the speed of Inuyasha eating rice, turning into a lifeless, withered forest in just a few breaths.

Inuyasha's eye twitched.

Qian Siyu's formidable strength is being demonstrated in the battle.

Attack, defense, control, absorption, regeneration... [Thousand Silk Control] pushes Jieluo's manipulation techniques to a whole new level.

In some ways, it is comparable to Hashirama Senju's Wood Release in Naruto.

"Young Master Inuyasha, don't run away~ Continue to show me your masculine power and might!"

Nourished by the life force, Jieluo's demonic power became even more abundant. She flew directly into the air, her nine giant tails spreading out behind her, like a ferocious nine-tailed fox demon.

Sunlight streamed down from behind her, casting flickering light and shadow on her alluring face, her pink eyes brimming with smug satisfaction.

I used to always get knocked to the ground by the dog, but this time I finally got to hold my head high.

As for how his young master would "whip" him after the sparring session—that's something to worry about after the fun is over; who cares about that now?

Inuyasha landed on a tree, looked up at the smug female demon in mid-air, and slowly grinned.

"Jie Luo, you've gotten too big for your britches."

He reached his right hand towards his waist.

—Tetsusaiga, draw!

The rusty blade was unremarkable in the sunlight, but as Inuyasha poured his thoughts into it, the rust began to peel away, revealing the imposing Fang Sword beneath.

The sword that protects people, the sword of humanity—the Tessaiga, can annihilate a hundred demons with a single swing!

A sharp, demonic aura rose from the blade, causing the half-demon's silver hair to fly backward.

Having wielded the Tessaiga for two months, Inuyasha had already mastered it. While he was still a bit short of mastering the Bakuryuha, he was thoroughly familiar with the Wind Scar.

Having witnessed its power, Jieluo's smile faltered slightly, and he pouted.

"Lord Inuyasha, are you serious about me forging the Tessaiga?"

"Didn't you tell me not to hold back?"

Inuyasha hoisted the Tessaiga onto his shoulder, a playful glint in his eyes.

He's not some dog without resources. The Tessaiga, capable of constantly absorbing demonic energy to grow stronger, is more than enough to be a cheat code.

'I took Jieluo's original hair comb before the battle; now it's the perfect time to cut her down.'

Er Gouzi, who had been harboring this thought from the beginning, squinted at Jie Luo, who suddenly shivered, and said loudly.

"Come on, let me see just how strong your [Thousand Threads Defense] really is."

On the cliff, the wind suddenly picked up.

Sensing the murderous intent, Jieluo became extremely alert, her fingers flying across the keyboard, and her black hair suddenly burst into crimson flames.

His hair danced wildly in the flames, transforming into several roaring fire dragons, carrying scorching waves and the aura of death, charging towards Inuyasha.

Wherever the fiery dragon passed, rocks melted, air distorted, and the entire mountain cliff trembled.

"Good timing!"

Instead of retreating, Inuyasha advanced, gripping the Tessaiga tightly with both hands, his demonic power surging wildly.

"Wind's Wound—!"

The collision of demonic energy is the essence of Wind Scar, and the Tessaiga plays the role of manipulating demonic energy and accelerating the collision of demonic energy.

By utilizing the gaps in the demonic energy emitted by the opponent, one can unleash a powerful hurricane that can kill hundreds of demons in one go.

therefore--

He swung the sword.

The sharp blade light transformed into a raging storm that tore through the heavens and earth, carrying countless tiny fragments of demonic energy, as it met the several fiery dragons.

Wherever the Wind's Wound passed, the Fiery Dragon shattered, torn into countless sparks by the demonic gale, and even the white clouds on the horizon were swept away by white waves.

With a single strike, Jieluo's all-out attack vanished into nothingness.

Before the glint of the blade had even faded, Inuyasha had already leaped out from the shower of shards, as fast as a shooting star.

Jieluo's pupils contracted sharply; he tried to dodge, but it was too late.

The silver-haired half-demon was already in front of him, his hands tightly gripping the Tessaiga, poised to split Mount Hua in two.

Chapter 26 The Migrants

Seeing that he was about to be hacked to death, Jielu cursed "heartless bastard" in his heart, and instinctively crouched down to protect himself.

The sharp blade of Tessaiga suddenly receded, and the sword turned back into a rusty lump of iron the instant it touched her forehead.

"Boom."

Jieluo was tapped on the head.

She opened her eyes and saw Inuyasha retracting his Tessaiga, standing tall in front of her, teasingly asking, "Still floating?"

Jieluo raised her head, blinked, rubbed her forehead where she had been hit, and turned her head away.

"...I'm not floating anymore."

Her voice was muffled, carrying three parts grievance, three parts resentment, and four parts an indescribable coquettishness.

When the female demon raised her beautiful, shy eyes, Inuyasha's breathing became rapid.

The day passed quickly. Having experienced two major battles, Inuyasha, exhausted from a day's work, headed to Kaede Village.

Having been thoroughly pampered, Jieluo remained in place, looking radiant.

Holding the sword-comb in her hand, with a slight thought, long hair grew from the comb's teeth.

Her hair spread out like a serpent, and she began to tidy up the foundation of Luo Shengjing.

Huge rocks were easily cut by a hair, with the cut surfaces as smooth as a mirror.

The crushed stone was rolled up, transported away, and piled into neat heaps.

The uneven ground was smoothed and leveled by the hair, eliminating all the bumps and revealing a wide and flat foundation.

The tangled shrubs and dead trees were uprooted and cleared away completely, and even the soil was repeatedly turned over, becoming soft and even.

As the sun sets, its afterglow paints the sky a golden-red hue.

Jie Luo stood in the center of the intertwined hair, thousands of black hairs behind her spreading like a peacock's tail.

Like a craftsman meticulously sculpting a work, she directed countless threads to transform the barren cliff into a love nest for the two of them.

At the same time, the hair was buried underground, forming Rashomon's underground network.

On the distant border of Musashi Province, a large and impressive procession is marching forward.

Leading the group was Wolf Wild Ganna, a gray-brown figure with a pair of adorable, large eyes that seemed disproportionate to his size, constantly scanning his surroundings.

Ahead of him, wolves were scouting ahead to avoid being ambushed.

Because behind him was a migrating caravan of nearly two thousand people.

There were craftsmen carrying toolboxes and farmers carrying hoes and other farm tools.

Several hundred bandits and prisoners of war, who had been used as laborers to transport provisions, followed the group dejectedly.

Their faces were etched with exhaustion and fear; after all, they were being escorted not by human soldiers, but by genuine monsters.

When they were captured by this group of menacing monsters, they all thought they were going to be eaten, but they didn't expect that they were going to build a city.

As the number of people continued to gather, it wasn't that no daimyo issued calls to attack, but they were all repelled by monsters like Wolf-no-Kami.

As the migration procession grew, more and more witches, sorcerers, exorcists, and others came to subdue the demons, putting the wolf monsters and others under great pressure.

At this moment, the monsters were scattered in twos and threes on both sides of the group, some half-human and some still retaining their beast form.

But without exception, they all stared intently at these "goods".

Occasionally, if someone slows down, a large, furry paw will give them a push, or a deep, animalistic roar will explode in their ear, startling them into quickening their pace.

"Get yourselves together, all of you!"

Wolfy turned around and roared.

"Lord Inuyasha is still waiting in Musashi Country! Anyone who slows down the journey, don't blame me for being impolite!"

A rustling commotion arose in the ranks, then silence fell again.

The group continued their journey slowly toward Musashi Province in the twilight.

In a dense forest, a group of demon hunters sat together.

Among them are the monk Mengxin from Mengxin Temple, a sorcerer with powerful "wind cave" abilities, various exorcists wielding different weapons, and shrine maidens dressed in red and white robes.

"Judging from the monster's movements, the captured civilians will not be in any immediate danger," Monk Mengxin said in a deep voice, watching a mage cast a water mirror spell, which reflected the movements of the Wolf Wild Cavalry.

"But we have to think of a way."

The others started discussing it.

"Charge straight in and fight? With so many of us, we might not be outmatched."

"No, the other side has two thousand hostages and a lot of monsters. A direct confrontation is too risky. Civilians will be affected. We are here to rescue people, not to harm them."
