Chapter 1382
Sukuna Oni: Reinforce the Seal!!!
Sukuna-ki never expected this.
He was looking for a follower, but a big one showed up instead!
Its heart, which had been pounding wildly just moments before, now felt as if it were being squeezed in someone's hand, each beat causing it to ache and feel weak.
The will-o'-the-wisp's eyes were fixed on Cui Ming, its pupils shrinking to the size of pinpoints. Even the surrounding yin energy retreated uncontrollably, as if it were avoiding some kind of plague.
Is this thing really human?
Sukuna Oni roared wildly in his mind, shattering the common sense he had accumulated over hundreds of years.
It has eaten at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, and every one of them cried out and begged for mercy, and every one of them was so frightened by its mere glance that they defecated and urinated.
But the aura emanating from this guy is ten times more sinister than that of a genuine evil spirit!
The resentment was so thick it was almost dripping with black water, each strand shrieking silently, as if countless torn and wronged souls were lining up behind him, waiting for revenge.
How can the resentment emanating from this person be so terrifying?!
Sukuna felt his jaw chattering, the fangs clanging together with a grating sound that was particularly jarring in the silent cave.
It even developed an absurd illusion, as if it were the prey that had strayed into the forbidden area, and the one standing opposite it was the true master of the mountain.
Holy crap! What happened outside while I was sealed away?!
Sukuna-ki's thoughts were completely in disarray, like a murky swamp.
It remembered that before it was sealed away, humans were weak creatures who fled in all directions, carrying bamboo spears and torches, crying out in despair.
How come, after hundreds of years, the humans outside have all evolved into these monsters?
Is this reasonable?
Is this scientifically sound?
How can this ghost survive?
Is this what humanity is like now?!
Sukuna Oni became increasingly distraught as he thought about it, his enormous demon face twisting into a ball, like a crumpled piece of paper.
It looked down at itself, then looked up at Cui Ming, and suddenly felt that its centuries-old infamy was a complete joke.
It painstakingly devours humans to accumulate resentment, only to find that a human standing there harbors even more resentment than it did in its prime. Where can you find justice in this?
Why would I break the seal then? Let's go back to sleep!
The head of Sukuna-ghost swiftly retreated into the depths of the rock, its speed creating a gust of cold wind that sent fallen leaves flying everywhere at the cave entrance.
It curled itself up into a ball, tightly clutching its still wildly beating heart, wishing it could suck back all the yin energy that had just surged out.
It decided that the seal was good, and the sealing power was comfortable. The outside world was too dangerous and not suitable for an honest ghost like itself.
Whoever wants to go out can go out; it's going to continue sleeping until the world returns to normal.
Cui Ming looked at Su Na Gui.
His gaze was calm; there was no glare, no roar, just a gentle sweep across.
But Su Na Gui felt as if an invisible knife was pressed against his throat, and even the ghost fire was flickering wildly, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, like a candle flickering in the wind.
There was no murderous intent in that gaze, yet it was more chilling than any murderous intent, as if looking at something already dead, whose soul was not even worth keeping.
Sukuna Oni braced himself, his voice trembling uncontrollably, his enormous demonic face shrinking further and further into the shadows of the rocks.
"What the hell are you?!"
Cui Ming frowned.
He felt that this guy was humiliating him.
"What?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it was like a stone thrown into ice, chilling to the bone.
"You ask me what it is?"
The demon shuddered at his reaction, its huge demon face shrinking back sharply, its fangs trembling and making a gurgling sound.
"No, no, I mean, the aura and resentment on your body, you're definitely not human!"
Cui Ming's gaze grew even colder.
He stepped forward, looking hurried and speaking rapidly as if he were in a rush. He pointed forcefully in the direction of Sukuna-ki.
"good very good."
He nodded, his chin slightly raised.
"You just wait."
The demon was stunned; its eyes widened so much they almost popped out of their sockets.
"Wait for what?!" Cui Ming had already turned around and strode down the mountain without looking back. His voice drifted back on the wind, carrying an undeniable sense of urgency.
"I'm going back to get explosives and level this mountain. You just wait, don't run away, I'll be back soon."
Sukuna-ki's demon face instantly twisted into a grimace, as if it had been punched hard.
It doesn't want to come out now because it feels it's too dangerous outside!
"Wait! Wait a minute!"
The voice of Sukuna was broken and tearful, and its huge head shook wildly in the crack of the rock, stirring up the surrounding yin energy into chaos.
"I won't go out! I absolutely won't go out! This seal is great! It's quite comfortable inside! Please don't blow it up! Please don't!"
Cui Ming paused, turned his head, and his lips seemed to twitch slightly, but his tone remained urgent, as if he couldn't wait to go back and get the ammunition.
"It's too late, you wait."
After saying that, he quickened his pace and his figure quickly disappeared into the woods, leaving only the rustling sound of his footsteps on the fallen leaves.
Sukuna-ki stared blankly in the direction he had left, his face deathly pale, even the ghostly green flames had been extinguished by half.
It slowly retreated into the depths of the rocks, wrapping itself tightly in yin energy, like a frightened turtle, its mouth still trembling.
"It's too scary outside, it's too scary outside, I'm not going out no matter what."
It pressed down hard on the heart that had been pounding wildly, as if it wanted to suck back all the yin energy that had just surged out.
"It's safe to continue sleeping here. Just don't let that guy come back."
Although Sukuna Oni thought so, but...
Cui Ming had already taken out the communicator.
He stood on a rock at the foot of the mountain, with his back to the direction of Mount Sukuna. His fingers tapped rapidly on the communicator. His movements looked hurried, as if he were rushing to complete some urgent mission, but every key was precise and there was no trace of panic.
"Confirmed, there are no unrelated personnel in the Su Na Mountain area."
A brief response came from the other end of the communicator.
"Confirmed, the area within three kilometers has been cleared."
Cui Ming's lips twitched slightly, his eyes were as calm as if he were looking at an ordinary report, but his tone carried an undeniable impatience.
"Bombing formation, coordinates sent, saturation bombing, flatten the mountain for me."
He paused, glanced sideways at the direction of Su Na Mountain, and his voice revealed an impatience that came from being in a hurry.
"Sukuna-gui? It's cowering tighter than a turtle now, perfect for wiping it out in one fell swoop."
The demon shuddered suddenly deep within the rocks.
It heard it.
A bombing squadron?!
Saturation bombardment?!
Flatten? !
Sukuna Oni's face instantly twisted into a ball, and eerie green flames burst from its eye sockets, almost setting itself ablaze.
"Do not--!!!"
It let out a shrill, distorted wail, its massive head thrashing wildly in the cracks of the rocks, stirring up the surrounding yin energy like a turbid swamp, splashing it everywhere.
The demon was so terrified that it frantically protected its seal!
It desperately poured the yin energy it had just absorbed into the seal's cracks, layering it like cement, afraid of leaving even the slightest gap.
"Don't bomb! Don't bomb! I won't go out! I promise I won't go out!"
Its voice was choked with sobs, and its ghostly claws clung tightly to the seal, the nails scraping the stone surface with a harsh sound, leaving behind streaks of dark, sinister energy.
"This seal is my life! You can't blow it up! If you do, where will I live?!"
The ghost was so anxious that it paced around in circles. The huge ghostly figure bumped into the narrow crack in the stone. It even tried to use ghost fire to "weld" the crack in the seal, but the ghost fire was too fierce and almost burned the seal. It was so frightened that it quickly blew it out and exhaled a breath of cold mist to cool it down.
"Those three bastards! It's all your fault! Why did you pull out a knife! I'm going to file a complaint! I'm going to file a complaint!"
As it howled, it reinforced the seal with its yin energy, wrapping it up like a black rice dumpling. Even the heart was wrapped around with yin energy more than a dozen times, rendering it unable to move.
The faint roar of fighter jet engines could be heard outside, growing louder as it approached, like the footsteps of death.
The ghost was so frightened that it almost flew away. It curled its whole body into a ball, pressed itself tightly against the seal, and muttered incoherently.
"Reinforce it. Reinforce it again. Apply several more layers of plaster. This area is safe. Make sure it doesn't explode."
Its will-o'-the-wisps eyes were fixed on the rock formations above, as if it could see the giant steel bird circling overhead through the rocks dozens of meters high, its eyes filled with despair and collapse.
"I swear I'll never come out again. Please let me sleep. I beg you." (End of Chapter)
