Curse back: As a swordsman, what's wrong with a happy ending?

Su Ze's intuition is gradually weakening.

He could clearly hear his own heartbeat, so loud that it seemed to shatter his eardrums.

The scattered Qi in the body kept gathering and dispersing. The Qi flow in the body was like an endless flower, floating but unable to find its direction.

Fushiguro Shige's counterattack was more sinister than he thought.

Su Ze's hands were trembling slightly, but continuing to output Qi with all his strength was at least useful - although Tennuriko's breathing was shallow and slow, it was no exaggeration to describe it as languid.

But at least, her life was saved temporarily.

——It’s not time yet.

There were six colored flying swords floating around Su Ze, and the white small sword of Dui Gua was particularly conspicuous.

"...Jie." He spoke while enduring the severe pain.

Xia Youjie stared at the rising dust over there.

He wanted to go to Gojo Satoru to help, but Su Ze and others had to rely on him for protection, so he couldn't leave.

"Send your strongest curse spirit to help Wu—" Su Ze said slowly but without doubt, "That guy is too strong, Wu can't deal with him..."

Su Ze gasped and whispered.

Xia Yujie's pupils shrank slightly.

-

bang——

The residual power of "Cang" frightened away Fushiguro Shen'er who was rushing towards him. He smashed heavily on the house in the courtyard, and the bracket-style wooden tile roof shattered into pieces, and the brick and tile beam roof of the old house collapsed.

He moved around in the air to ease the momentum, then crashed into the shrine in the center of the courtyard, stirring up thick dust.

Gojo Satoru walked slowly into the courtyard with his hands in his pockets.

——Since that guy knew his technique, he must have been prepared.

He walked along the main gate of the courtyard towards the shrine in the center, his face calm, and he said loudly: "That cursed tool is your final resort, right?"

——Fushiguro Shier was willing to move the battlefield, which was exactly what he wanted. If it was at the same place just now, he would have to pay attention to Su Ze and the others at the same time.

The eyes of the sky were shining brightly, and he stopped, standing in front of the shrine that was destroyed by Fushiguro Shier, frowning and looking at the thick dust.

"It's a pity it can't touch me—"

The dust cleared and the shrine was empty.

"Hmm!" He instantly increased his perception and turned his head slightly to scan the surroundings.

A figure instantly passed by his blind spot behind him. Gojo Satoru turned his head suddenly, and the shadow was on the other side in a moment. He did not get too close to Gojo Satoru, but moved quickly on the roofs and treetops of the courtyard, making the dense buildings and trees appear hazy.

“…Tsk.” Gojo Satoru smacked his lips.

too fast.

And there is too much clutter.

You can't catch up by relying on intuition.

——We can only track the location of the cursed spirit on his shoulder.

His eyes gradually faded, and he drew a circle with his hands above his head. A blue storm of cursed energy instantly formed, and then moved to his chest. The increasingly powerful cursed energy flow lifted his short hair. The blue cursed energy ball reflected his face blue, and the ground around him cracked and splashed.

There was a serious look between Gojo Satoru's brows.

"「Ritual Shift? Cang」——Maximum Output!!"

The astonishingly powerful Cang instantly destroyed all the surrounding houses, swallowing up everything it contained like a towering building.

After the huge cloud of dust settled, the ground around him sank deeply, leaving only the space under Gojo Satoru's feet intact.

——Now he can't hide anymore.

A bead of sweat dripped from his chin, and he looked around with a sense of relief.

Nothing.

—Hidden in the distant woods?

“GAA!!”

A strange cry suddenly came from behind Gojo Satoru, and he turned around hastily - over there was the woods at the back of the high school.

The next moment, endless insects suddenly appeared, flapping their thin wings and flying towards this side at a rapid speed.

--teeny?!

It seems to be covering the sky and blocking out the sun.

Thousands of low-level flies instantly surrounded Gojo Satoru.

“…Do you want to use this thing to interfere with the perception of cursed energy?” Gojo Satoru broke out in a cold sweat.

He slowly raised his arm, a little bit of spell power overflowed from his palm, and was about to cast another "Cang" to clear the obstacles.

But the next moment he suddenly froze.

--wrong!

He suddenly turned around and looked towards Su Ze——

——It’s over there at Ze!

——There are two seriously injured people and an ordinary person over there!

Click.

There was a slight sound of landing behind me.

A muscular figure suddenly appeared.

In an instant, Gojo Satoru's whole body turned cold, his brain went blank, and his limbs became as stiff as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

He tried his best to turn his head and look behind him.

Fushiguro Shinobu held a short blade in his right hand and stabbed it straight into Gojo Satoru's throat.

——Fushiguro Shiori won the bet.

Gojo Satoru can find his location by intuition, and can also capture the strange cursed power emitted by "Anetsuhoko" with his six eyes.

——But he was betting that at this moment, Gojo Satoru would only rely on the technique to defend himself.

Gojo Satoru looked terrified and used all his strength to activate the technique.

Click.

An invisible clear sound of shattering suddenly rang out, and the strange short blade in Fushiguro Shige's hand instantly pierced through "No Bottom Limit", and a strange purple light flashed slightly between the blades.

The corners of his mouth were curled to an exaggerated degree, and he swung his arm fiercely to stab Gojo Satoru's throat.

Ping Ping——

Two blue lights suddenly flashed in front of him, hitting his palm and blade at an angle.

The severe pain and the sense of corrosion caused the hand holding the knife to shift slightly in direction and also delayed for a moment -

However, at this very moment, Gojo Satoru used all his strength to shift his body slightly, and the strange blade only pierced his throat.

Fushiguro Jōrō still had no expression on his face. He drew out the "Tennikuboko" without hesitation, and at the same time quickly raised his hand, turned his wrist and stabbed it into the opponent's ribs. He wanted to take advantage of the time when Gojo Satoru was unable to cope and completely defeat him.

--null!

A huge and majestic pale cursed spirit rushed over from the side, it opened its mouth and bit Fushiguro Shier in the waist, the overwhelming impact and cursed power instantly took his body away. But his hand was still tightly holding the "Anetsuhoko", and with the powerful inertia of the rainbow dragon, it tore a deep crack in Gojo Satoru's body.

The tail of the "Rainbow Dragon" swung violently like a gust of wind, stirring up gusts of wind in the air. Its claws were mighty and domineering, and it raised its head and rushed forward, smashing dozens of houses in an instant.

The Fushiguro Shige in the dragon's mouth had already replaced the handle of the long sword and was pressing it tightly between the jaws of the Rainbow Dragon.

The Rainbow Dragon swung its tail at the end, smashing several wooden houses again, then suddenly turned around and drove back to its original direction.

Fushiguro Shigeki was facing the enemy with his back.

Countless dark deep holes suddenly opened up beside Gojo Satoru. The next moment, countless blue lights shot out from the black holes so fast that they could not be seen clearly, covering a large area around Fushiguro Shinji.

The light spot dragged out slender blue tail feathers and shot out indiscriminately, blocking Fushiguro Shige's way.

"Wu! Are you okay?!" Xia Youjie, who had just arrived, stopped in front of him, and his hands were controlling the direction of hundreds of blue lights in front of him.

——"Ink Squid", a cursed spirit known for its speed, is used as a disposable consumable.

Xia Yujie's face was grim, and his hair was stuck to his temples due to sweat. He took the opportunity to slightly turn his head to look at Gojo Satoru who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed.

"...still alive."

Gojo Satoru's voice was hoarse and harsh, his mouth and throat were filled with blood, making his voice suppressed and dull.

The violent and piercing exhalation sounded like the sound of grinding. He exerted his maximum magical power to barely seal the wound in his throat.

----

Note: “Middle game” is a Go term.

It means that the layout is completed and the critical stage that determines the overall victory or failure has begun.

After the middle game, the situation becomes unpredictable.

Compared with the somewhat fixed "layout" and "closing" stages, the "middle game" is more unpredictable and mysterious. It tests the player's ability to control the overall situation and judge the situation, so the "middle game" is also a key consideration in judging the player's strength.
