Chapter 151 Sealing the Demon, Kimimaro's First Battle with Haku!
"Miro! Are you still going to stop me?!"
Don't forget! You and I are one!
The roars emitted by the eight snake heads simultaneously, carrying a tangible mental impact, slammed into the main hall of the shrine!
Behind the crack in the palace door, Maitreya bit his lower lip hard, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth staining his clothes red. Behind him, Xiao Ziyuan screamed in terror, her small body trembling like a leaf in the wind.
The thin shield was flashing wildly, and it looked like it was about to shatter completely!
The vortex in front of the shield was numb, and the hem of the dark red divine robe was lifted by the roaring sound, fluttering loudly.
However, the impact that was enough to break a Jonin's mind was like hitting an invisible wall when it hit him, and even the white three-eyed fox mask on his face did not shake at all!
The empty eye sockets calmly gazed at the eight pairs of vertical pupils filled with destruction and contempt.
The roar of the demon came to an abrupt halt.
The eight snake heads tilted back slightly, and for the first time, confusion was clearly reflected in their molten gold vertical pupils.
This insignificant human... actually managed to ignore its mental pressure?!
In the instant that the demon was briefly slowed down due to the abnormal numbness on its face!
"Do it!"
Uchiha Hikaru's icy voice was like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath!
Her Mangekyou Sharingan, with its intricate patterns, precisely locked onto Huang Quan, who was below the demon and was filled with doubt and surprise at the appearance of Menma!
"Ice Release: Demonic Mirror Ice Crystal!" Bai's youthful yet resolute voice rang out.
His hands formed a hand seal with lightning speed, and an icy chill instantly erupted!
Countless tiny ice crystals in the air frantically condensed and multiplied, instantly constructing a crystal maze composed of countless smooth ice mirrors around him and Kimimaro!
The five dark medical ninjas who were about to pounce on Uchiha Hikaru were caught off guard and were instantly separated and trapped in various corners of the Ice Mirror Maze!
The mirror reflected the dark purple light of the demons and the blood-red color of the shrine, creating a bizarre and eerie scene.
"Damn it! It's Ice Release! Break through it!" A burly, dark-skinned medical ninja with a hideous scar on his face roared in surprise and anger, his hands rapidly forming hand seals.
"Earth Release: Great River of Earth!" The ground trembled violently as a viscous mudslide crashed into the ice wall like a giant python!
"Wind Release: Pressure Damage!" Another tall, thin ninja unleashed a highly compressed, violent whirlwind that tore through the air and blasted towards the other ice mirror!
"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!" "Lightning Release: False Darkness!" "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!"
Five Jonin-level dark medical ninjas unleashed their five elemental ninjutsu simultaneously!
A blazing fire dragon, a raging windball, a howling lightning spear, a roaring water dragon, and a surging mudslide!
Five powerful chakra slammed into the white ice mirror labyrinth!
Rumble——! ! !
The deafening explosion almost drowned out the roar of the demon!
Ice shards and fragments of chakra light scattered and flew everywhere, and the strong smell of burning, steaming water, and earthy stench instantly filled the air!
Bai's face turned pale instantly, his body swayed, and the Ice Mirror Maze trembled violently, with countless cracks spreading, on the verge of collapse!
Maintaining such a large range and withstanding the full force of five Jonin's attacks was still a bit of a strain for him, who was still young.
"White!" Kimimaro's cold voice pierced through the deafening explosion.
Just as the Ice Mirror Maze was about to collapse, his figure appeared like a ghost behind the burly ninja who had unleashed the Earth Flow River!
Their speed caught these dark medical ninjas off guard.
With veins bulging around his eyes, Kimimaro spread his right hand, and beneath the skin of his palm, dozens of incredibly sharp, gleaming white bone spikes, like blooming flowers of death, instantly pierced through flesh and blood, stabbing fiercely toward his opponent's back with a shrill whooshing sound!
"Puff! Puff! Puff!"
The dull thuds of bones piercing flesh echoed throughout the room!
The burly ninja's sinister smile froze instantly. He looked down at the blood-stained, stark white bone protruding from his chest, his eyes filled with disbelief and astonishment.
He didn't even see how the other person appeared!
“The first one.” Kimimaro’s voice was completely flat. He suddenly pulled his arm out, bringing with it a spray of warm blood.
The body fell to the ground with a crash.
"Damn it!" The tall, thin ninja who released the Wind Release technique had bloodshot eyes. He formed hand seals again, and violent wind blades gathered in his palms!
"Ice Release Secret Technique: Thousand Kill Water Flight!" Bai endured the dizziness from the chakra backlash and changed his hand seals again!
Countless sharp ice needles rained down on the tall, thin ninja from the fragments of the still-shattering ice mirror and from the condensed moisture in the air!
The angle was tricky, sealing off all his space to dodge!
The tall, thin ninja was forced to abandon his Wind Release technique and awkwardly dodged among the narrow remnants of the ice mirror, his trench coat being slashed with blood by the sharp ice needles.
"Kill that ice-elemental one first!" Huang Quan roared.
The ninja who unleashed Fire Release techniques spewed fire dragons from both hands, attempting to burn through the obstacles and rush straight at Haku!
At that moment, Uchiha Hikaru moved. She didn't even look at the fire-style ninja; she simply raised her left hand casually, her slender fingers lightly pointing in the direction from which the fire dragon was attacking.
"Amaterasu."
The pitch-black flames burned silently in mid-air!
The roaring fire dragon crashed into the black flames, but it was like a mud ox entering the sea, not even causing a ripple, and was instantly swallowed up!
The ninja who released the fire jutsu had his pupils shrink. The eerie black flames, like a leech, followed the trajectory of the fire dragon's chakra and instantly spread to his body!
"Ahhhhhh!!!" A bloodcurdling scream, so shrill it was inhuman, echoed across the battlefield!
The pitch-black flames burned silently on his body, and no matter how he rolled, patted himself, or even tried to use water magic to save himself, it was all in vain!
Flesh and bones rapidly turned to nothingness in the absolute black flames, leaving only a chilling, acrid smell.
In the blink of an eye, only a small clump of black ashes remained on the spot.
The terrifying power of the kaleidoscope instantly intimidated the remaining three dark medical ninjas!
The madness on their faces was replaced by boundless fear, and their movements became fatally stiff!
Kimimaro and Haku seized this fleeting opportunity!
"Shikotsumyaku: Dance of the Camellia!" Kimimaro's figure moved like lightning, countless sharp bone blades piercing through his clothes on his arms, shoulders, knees, and even spine. His entire body transformed into a high-speed spinning storm of deathly bone blades, instantly engulfing the two ninjas who had released Water Release and Lightning Release!
The Water Dragon Bullet's defense was utterly vulnerable to absolute speed and sharpness. The two ninjas only had time to let out a short scream before they were swept into the Bone Blade Storm and turned into a rain of blood and flesh!
"Ice Release: Ice Rock Hall of Nothingness!" Bai pressed his hands to the ground, and a huge ice wall instantly rose up, smashing Huang Quan, who was trying to escape, away!
The instant Huang Quan's body went paralyzed, countless sharp ice spikes burst forth from the ice wall, piercing him and pinning him to the air!
Fresh blood gushed down the icicles.
In just a few breaths, Huang Quan and five Jonin-level Dark Medical Ninjas were all wiped out!
The core of the battlefield.
The standoff between Menma and Wangliang reached its climax the moment their subordinates broke into battle!
"Roar--!!!"
Enraged by Menma's "ignorance," the massive dark purple chakra body of the demon surged violently, and its eight snake heads opened their huge mouths at the same time!
Instead of roaring, it spewed out eight extremely condensed torrents of evil chakra, as thick and purplish-black asphalt!
Wherever these torrents of chakra passed, they emitted a corrosive "sizzling" sound, even eroding deep ravines into the hard bluestone floor of the shrine!
Eight torrents of water, like a cataclysmic flood, surged towards Mianma and the fragile main hall behind him from different angles, engulfing him!
It had an overwhelming momentum to completely devour and corrode this tiny obstacle, along with the last hope within it!
Menma remained standing in the same spot, his white mask appearing particularly eerie under the blazing chakra light of the demon.
His right eye, hidden beneath the mask, suddenly revealed a scarlet three-tomoe star. Immediately afterward, the star spun, stretched, and deformed wildly!
A terrifying power, far more profound and domineering than any demon, seemingly originating from the very source of the world, suddenly erupted!
"Tsukuyomi!"
Silently.
The enormous, mountain-like dark purple chakra body of the demon suddenly froze!
The eight ferocious snake heads froze simultaneously, and the savagery and disdain in the molten gold vertical pupils were instantly replaced by boundless horror and bewilderment!
The eight destructive torrents of chakra it spewed out suddenly stopped and froze just meters away from Menma, like a frozen waterfall.
Deep within the consciousness of the demon, a completely different and even more desperate world instantly descended!
A mountain of corpses!
A real, boundless mountain of corpses!
A vast battlefield stretching to the horizon, formed by countless twisted, broken, and rotten corpses piled up!
Connecting with the dark red sky, which is also made of corpses!
Thick blood plasma flowed like a river through the gaps between the corpses, pooling into huge, bubbling pools of blood.
The air was filled with a nauseating, overwhelming stench of corpses and blood, almost solidified into a tangible substance.
In the center of the distant battlefield, atop a mountain of corpses piled high with countless severed limbs, a dark red nine-tailed fox sat like a throne, with a blood-red moon behind it. A spiky-haired boy lazily leaned on this throne, his eyelids raised, his Sharingan eyes looking down arrogantly at all living beings!
As for the demon that prides itself on being the embodiment of destruction, it is now like a tiny worm nailed to a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!
An unimaginable malice was locked onto it from every corner of this world of corpses, from every rotting eye socket, and from every drop of flowing filthy blood!
That wasn't individual hatred, but rather the rejection and murderous intent of the entire "world"!
It was as if the entire world was roaring to crush it!
"No... impossible...!" The consciousness of the demon emitted a silent, twisted shriek in the illusionary world. Its proud dark chakra, capable of corroding everything, was powerless against this world composed of pure malice and despair!
A fear, born of instinct and never experienced before, like a cold, venomous snake, tightly coiled around its core!
In the real world, in front of a shrine.
The massive, dark purple chakra body of the demon convulsed and rolled violently, like a soulless shell. Its eight snake heads twisted and writhed in agony, emitting silent hisses, but it could no longer muster any offensive chakra!
The malevolent energy it emitted became chaotic and weak.
"Now! Maitreya!" Mianma's icy voice, like a thunderclap, pierced through the chaotic screams of the demons and the lingering echoes of battle.
Inside the main hall, the shrine maiden Miroku, who had been waiting for her turn, unleashed a resolute glint in her eyes!
She bit her tongue hard, spitting a mouthful of blood, imbued with the power of a priestess, onto the already formed hand seal!
"Secret seal!"
