Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 258 The whole world is the enemy
"How can I kill you if I don't get close to you?"

Ryomen Sukuna sneered, his four eyes fixed on the man in front of him.

Wen Lie stood confidently in the clouds, with a sword slung over his side, a whip tied around his waist, a golden spear standing upright in the clouds, and his cloak emitting a light golden glow.

However, looking closely, the hazy golden light came from densely packed rune engravings, and not only the cloak, but all of his weapons were engraved with fine and complex runes.

"Come closer to me, then."

Wen Lie raised his hands, and his arms moved as if they were swimming in water. It didn't look very fast, but rather a little slow.

Ryomen Sukuna paused, a look of surprise and doubt flashed in his eyes.

In his eyes, more than a dozen phantoms flashed from Wen Lie's body.

A man holds a sword, the sword energy is awe-inspiring, and the light is chilling across the nine continents.

One man brandished a whip, and a ferocious fire snake pounced and bit him.

A man held a spear, and a flash of golden light pierced through the sky.

One man swung his fist, and his fist was like a meteor.

One person's palm strike can break mountains and rivers.

One person clenched his claws and tore the sky and split the clouds.

One man raised his palm and pressed down the sky.

……

Swords, whips, guns, fists, palms, fingers, legs, even the cloak, also radiated shining swords of light. More than a dozen ways of attack showed absolute power to Ryomen Sukuna.

Ryomen Sukuna's prediction limit is 10 seconds, but in the future he foresaw, Wen Lie's moves all changed within one second. There were no flaws to seize and no loopholes to exploit. The power of the predictive eye was useless at this moment.

If you can’t find the flaw, then don’t look for it!

"Field: Demon Subduing Chef!"

Ryomen Sukuna made a gesture without thinking, and a hideous-looking shrine rose from the ground under his feet, putting Ryomen Sukuna and Wenlie at the same height.

Wen Lie could feel the spiritual light emanating from Ryomen Sukuna. The spiritual light, in the form of a barrier, covered an area with a radius of 200 meters, wrapping his body as well.

In response, Wen Lie naturally used the same kind of power.

The light of the soul enveloped the whole body, neutralizing the domain of Ryomen Sukuna and breaking the guaranteed hit effect of the domain of birth.

"untie!"

Sensing the foreign object in the area, Ryomen Sukuna remained unmoved. He quickly made gestures with his hands, outputting huge amounts of cursed power and releasing sharp slashes at Wenlie.

In an instant, hundreds of slashes formed a storm. Although they were slashes aimed at the first line, they created the momentum of a blunt attack.

"Swords shine, sing of miracles!"

Wen Lie drew out Durandal swiftly, and with the chant of baptism, he slashed out a flawless azure sword light.

"Durandal!"

The sword energy swept across the sky, and the blue light seemed to merge with the sky. The moment it was slashed down, it made people feel as if the vast sky was swinging the sword downwards.

The two slashes intertwined with each other, and the slashes of cursed power were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, breaking one after another. The storm-like momentum was completely defeated by this sword.

At the same time, Wen Lie raised the Spear of Destiny with his right foot.

The spear flew into the air and spun like a propeller. At the moment the spear tip pointed at Ryomen Sukuna, Wen Lie's right leg swelled slightly, erupting with a force that shook the space, and kicked fiercely at the tail of the Spear of Destiny.

A huge amount of ripple energy was injected into the Spear of Destiny. The Spear of Destiny began to spin rapidly and turned into a beam of golden flash. With a swirling torrent, it shot out towards Ryomen Sukuna and landed in front of Ryomen Sukuna almost at the same time as Durandal's slash.

Ryomen Sukuna's eyes were focused on the tip of the Spear of Destiny. Having witnessed the power of the Spear of Judgment with his own eyes and having used the Spear of Judgment with his own hands, Ryomen Sukuna did not dare to be careless with this spear.

The power of the precognitive eye and the six eyes was fully exerted, and the trajectory of the Spear of Destiny became extremely clear in Ryoumen Sukuna's eyes.

He didn't dare to dodge. Under the observation of the predictive eye, the future changed dozens of times, but he never succeeded in dodging it.

It's so fast!
Wen Lie, who is only at the third level, still needs time to charge up the Holy Spear of Judgment when using it to spin and charge forward. However, after reaching the fourth level, he can kick out with one kick an effect that would have been impossible even after charging for several minutes.

At this moment, Ryoumen Sukuna thought for a minute in his mind, and in reality, he made the decision almost without hesitation.

The Spear of Judgment inside the storage ring appeared in Ryomen Sukuna's hands. He held it across his chest with both hands, blocking the blade of the Spear of Destiny without missing a beat.

"boom!"

Overwhelming power erupted from the collision between the gun blade and the spear body. The gun blade nailed the spear body, spiraling at high speed like an electric drill, and layers of power vibrated out towards Ryoumen Sukuna's body.

In an instant, the skin on Ryomen Sukuna's arms swelled up, rolled towards his shoulders like a wave, and quickly exploded, splattering bright blood and broken flesh.

Suddenly, there was not a single intact piece of skin or muscle on Ryomen Sukuna's body, and his bloody and mangled appearance was extremely terrifying.

Under the impact of the Spear of Destiny, Ryomen Sukuna's body was thrown backwards and fell to the distant earth like a meteorite flying from the universe.

Lu Shiyunyi and Mandu, who were chasing Ryomen Sukuna, saw this scene. Their bodies froze and their faces showed expressions of disbelief.

One round or two? In any case, the battle didn't last more than two seconds.

Ryoumen Sukuna, who had unfolded his territory, fell into a disadvantage so quickly and was knocked away by his opponent?

The ancient sorcerers who knew the name of the Curse King looked at Wen Lie above the clouds in shock, and at the same time thought that they might have been under an illusion.

Seeing the noose falling from the sky, Shi Liulong asked bluntly, "Noose? Who is that guy?"

Nozomi laughed and said, "Well, to put it in the terms of this era, he's the final boss of the Death Reborn. Swimmers in the Death Reborn have only one choice: kill him, or be killed by him, and only then will the Death Reborn end."

"Noose, what's going on here? This tiankeng, these ruins, this was once a city, right?"

Kurusu Hana, with a pair of pure white wings, flew down from the sky several hundred meters above. A mouth grew from the side of her face, and she questioned Noose coldly.

She flew to a high place and looked around. The ruins around her, the corpses in the ruins, and the survivors who had managed to survive, the scene after the natural disaster was extremely vivid.

It is obvious that this was still an intact city for no more than a day at the earliest.

Nozomi patiently explained, "Yes, this is Tokyo, the center of Japan. However, a few minutes ago, someone chopped down Tokyo with an axe and destroyed it."

Suddenly, everyone was horrified, their eyes filled with shock, but even more so with terror. A single strike could create such a massive crater? For most, no! For all sorcerers, this was an unimaginable force!
"What are you talking about?"

"Impossible! This is impossible!"

"Odo-san! Oga-san!"

……

Hundreds of men and women showed expressions of shock and anger and rushed to the ground quickly.

The remnants of the 19-Nation Allied Forces looked at each other, not understanding what was wrong with these Japanese. Until a comrade who was good at Japanese translated what Nozomi said, the soldiers' faces changed drastically.

How many people are there in Tokyo? Even ancient sorcerers could understand this through the memories of those who received the flesh.

More than 30 million! Even if the 10 million cursed spirits released by the Death Rebirth and the Noose cause a population exodus, there will still be tens of millions of people left.

In addition, with a sinkhole of this size, the shock waves and vibrations will definitely have a severe impact on other cities and even the entire country, and the death toll will not be less than 30 million.

Thirty million dead and wounded! In the 21st century, even if their country declared war on Japan, they would not dare to cause such a large-scale massacre. The man in the sky actually dared to risk the world's condemnation and killed so many people in Japan!
"Ya Butterfly!"

Miserable wails echoed through the sky. The swimmer, who was born in Tokyo, returned to the surface and saw the ruins of the city before him, and let out a cry of grief.

They regretted immensely, regretting why they had participated in the Death Reincarnation, and why they had not left when the Death Reincarnation first allowed them to leave, and taken their families to other cities. This regret burned their hearts like a raging fire.

"Devil... He's definitely a devil! Angel, he must be the Fallen Angel we're looking for! Apart from a Fallen Angel, how could anyone do such a cruel thing?"

Lai Qihua knelt on the ground weakly. Although she was an orphan without any family, the death of tens of millions of compatriots was a shock that was enough to make people dizzy.

"...It doesn't matter whether he's a fallen angel or not. He's killed so many people. Even if he's an angel, I must destroy him."

The angel was silent for a while before opening his mouth from Lai Qihua's face.

"Swimmers, you heard what Noose said just now. We have only one relationship with that man. Either we kill him and then kill Noose, escaping this death game, or he kills us and achieves Noose's goal... In short, I hope you can help me kill that man."

A heavy voice rang in everyone's ears, and everyone looked at each other with different expressions.

"I'll join!"

After a moment of silence, Shi Liulong was the first to accept the angel's proposal.

"We're on a life-and-death stalemate with that guy. This won't change. If we want to survive, we have to unite everyone's strength and kill him first."

Duruf Lakdawala also responded: "I will join in too. I have obtained a physical body in this era and I don't want to end my life easily."

Wu Lu Hengzi crossed his arms and said impatiently, "Tsk! You're talking as if we have any other choice, escape? Noso set up this trap and won't let us slip away. We have no choice but to join forces to kill this final boss."

Higurashi Hiromi said resolutely: "I will judge him for the dead in Tokyo!"

Lu Ziyun also heard the angel's voice. He had always wanted to duel with Ryomen Sukuna, and after a brief hesitation, he acquiesced to the angel's proposal.

He knew very well that he had no chance of winning if he fought alone.

After all, even Ryoumen Sukuna was knocked away by the opponent even though he had deployed his domain. No matter how confident he was, he would not think that he could win alone.

Most sorcerers accepted the angel's proposal, and even ordinary soldiers had no choice but to release the sorcerers they had captured and formed an alliance with the sorcerers to fight against Wen Lie.

Of course, when we say most, it doesn’t mean everyone.

"Form an alliance? That's clearly courting death! How can we possibly win? Against a monster like that, what's the difference between fighting him and courting death?"

Having said this, Charlie Bernard left decisively.

There were many people who chose to leave like Charlie Bernard. Faced with this huge sinkhole, those who did not have deep hatred all had a lucky mentality.

Now that I've emerged from the Death Reincarnation, why bother fighting? Why not just escape with the techniques I gained from the Death Reincarnation?

With the skills at their disposal, they can live a good life no matter where they are.

The remaining sorcerers did not stop it, and neither did the noose.

"Then I'll take my leave. As the organizer, I won't leave easily. After all, there's no need for me to do anything."

He smiled gently, waved goodbye to Lai Qihua, and flew to a distant height on the Curse Spirit, putting some distance between him and the battlefield.

However, even though no one tried to stop them, those who left were unable to escape.

A human body made of soil and rock walked on the ground. It was about two meters tall and had a hard body. Its identity as a cursed spirit could be identified at a glance.

Charlie Bernard had just escaped a short distance when he encountered such a monster on the ground.

"It's the curse spirit again, get out of here!"

Charlie Bernard clicked his tongue and summoned a giant pen.

However, although it is called a fountain pen, the tip of the pen has a red tassel similar to that of a spear.

Charlie rushed towards the native with a gun in hand and stabbed the pen into his chest.

Facing Charlie's attack, the native simply raised his arm and slapped it forward.

A violent shock wave whizzed through Charlie's body.

In an instant, the pen and Charlie's body shattered, and the fragments like sand fell away without a trace.

Not only Charlie, but all the sorcerers fleeing from all directions ran into the cursed spirits pursuing the holy lamp.

The curse spirits that can survive the aftermath of the Holy Axe and retain a certain degree of combat effectiveness are all special-grade curse spirits. With the amplification of the main god, the strength of these special-grade curse spirits is three or four times stronger than the previous special-grade curse spirits. Among them, there are curse spirits born from human fear of natural disasters.

That’s right, it was Wen Lie’s axe that shattered Charlie’s curse spirit in one blow. It was a natural disaster curse spirit born from the Japanese people’s fear of earthquakes.

Special-grade cursed spirits, sorcerers, soldiers, all of them, whether voluntarily or forced, have the same goal, which is to kill Shang Yunlu and eliminate Wen Lie.

In the distance, Ryoumen Sukuna, who had fallen to the ground, stood up.

The injuries caused by the Spear of Destiny were quickly healed by the reversal technique.

However, at the end, there was still a scar left on the chest.

It was a sword mark, a sword mark left by Durandal, which could not be erased even by the reversal technique.
