Chapter 68. The Japanese Demon Who Obtained an Alien Identity
"I really don't deserve such praise. I haven't been of much help, but I have some unfinished business to attend to... I'm grateful for your assistance."
Having received such gratitude for answering just a small question, Jinglong Jingtian felt a little embarrassed. He stood up and gave Jin Yi a solemn ancient bow.
The unfinished old story refers to the two-faced Sukuna demons suppressed beneath Mount Sukuna.
This was Keiryu's last enemy. For some unspeakable reasons, Keiryu failed to defeat Sukunagami, only managing to sever its limbs. But as long as its heart, filled with demonic energy, continues to beat, Sukunagami will one day rise from the ashes.
Therefore, Jinglong inhabited his beloved sword with his soul and built a shrine to suppress the vengeful spirit of Sukuna-ki. Peace lasted for a hundred years. However, no matter how great the shrine was, it would eventually collapse. When Sukuna-ki saw the light of day again, carrying the resentment accumulated over a hundred years, it would once again wreak havoc on the world.
However, Jinglong was not worried at this moment, because the gentleman beside him gave him immense confidence.
As long as Jin Yi makes a move, even if Su Na Gui's resentment, accumulated over a hundred years, were to return, it would be nothing more than a matter of turning his hand to destroy it.
Ida Keiryu said with relief, "It will take at least three days, and at most seven days, for Sukuna to fully awaken. However, even with a hundred years of resentment, it's nothing compared to your power..."
Jin Yi frowned slightly: "It's taking too long."
Although Belial's anger has gradually subsided, the journey to the Rainbow Realm cannot be delayed, so a swift victory is necessary.
Another point is that Sukuna-ki is currently a soul residing in the heart, and Jin Yi happens to need a soul to conduct an experiment, so he can only make do with Sukuna-ki, the little guinea pig.
No, it was his greatest honor to give his life for Boss Jin.
"What does Your Excellency mean?"
Jinglong Jingtian was somewhat confused, but then he saw Jin Yi take out his phone from his pocket and skillfully dial a private line.
"Hello, Captain, I'm sorry to bother you, but I have an urgent matter to explain."
Jin Yi's expression was serious: "Galatron has detected a suspicious signal. In the area of Sukuna Mountain in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, there is a suspected presence of the cargo lost by Foundation X, a Specia Falling Beast with the serial number 002."
"Please immediately deploy sufficient support personnel to evacuate residents within a 20-kilometer radius. As for the codename of this monster, considering that it is a humanoid bio-weapon, and combining this with the legends of the Sukuna Mountain area..."
"Let's call him Su Na Gui."
Sphia Fallen Star Beast No. 002 - Codename Sukuna Oni.
Jinglong Jingtian stared in disbelief. Then, a streak of light flew out from Jin Yi's hand, its target the collapsed temple halfway up the mountain, straight into the beating heart beneath the ruins!
----------
Thump, thump, thump...
beat,
beat,
A century-old lingering resentment drives the remaining heart to beat on and on.
Sukuna Oni, also known as Ryoumen Sukuna, still remembers the humiliation of being killed by Ida Keiryu and deeply hates Ida Keiryu.
In the past, he possessed unparalleled power and harbored ambitions to conquer the world. Countless Onmyoji and exorcists fell at his hands, their bloody remains piling up by the roadside, thus establishing Sukuna-ki's formidable reputation.
That's why he made such a bold statement to the demon-slaying swordsman who came to challenge him—
Ida Keiryu, you are the real challenger!
He has such power, he has such confidence, but what can an old man who is about to die and a decaying swordsman do?
The corpses piled up along the roadside included many famous figures, but what about now? Their former fame only attracts buzzing flies.
After one move.
Su Na Gui—died.
With just one strike, Sukuna Oni's grand ambitions vanished into thin air.
Sukunaki's remaining consciousness even realized that Ida Kageryu hadn't used his full strength.
hateful……
hateful!
My power, my desires, my ambitions—all of it has been destroyed by this guy!
A deep resentment rose from his heart, protecting the beating heart; the decaying swordsman was no longer able to completely destroy this hateful demon.
So the swordsman used his last strength to bury his still-beating heart deep in the mountains, and then passed away.
The moment Ida Keiryu's heart stopped beating, Sukuna's heart raced. He seemed to see himself returning to the world in the near future, his ambition rising once more, and this time the entire world would be his!
However, the spirit within the blade forcefully shattered his ambition, reducing it to dust.
Sukuna-ki is almost going mad. Is he going to oppose me in life and in death? Ida Kagetatsu!
Pain, anger, and resentment fermented in the sunless depths of the earth, for a day, two days, ten days, a year, two years, ten years, a hundred years...
The day has finally come!
At the moment the temple collapsed, Sukunaki's heart even stopped for a second out of excitement, followed by ecstasy.
Having accumulated resentment for hundreds of years, Sukuna Oni, surpassing his former peak, is determined to take over the entire world!
However, it takes a certain amount of time—at least three days and at most seven days—for the body and limbs to be born from the resentment in the heart.
Sukuna Oni waited patiently; hundreds of years had already passed, so this time was but a fleeting moment.
At that moment, a streak of light pierced the ground, heading straight for the heart that was enveloped in resentment.
At first, Sukuna thought it was a secret weapon possessed by modern humans, meant to kill it in its infancy. However, when the tendrils of resentment gently touched the glowing net-like sphere, a surge of power rose up.
The nameless white sphere clung to Sukuna's heart, gradually forming bones, flesh, meridians, and skin at a speed more than twice as fast as before. In just one day, he would be able to see the light of day again!
Even God is on my side!
He didn't know what this thing was; he just thought it was a gift from heaven.
Overjoyed, Sukuna used all her strength to grow back her remaining body, dreaming of conquering the world.
Ida Kagetatsu is no more. What can a mere spirit do? In this world, no one can stop me, Sukuna Oni!
But at that moment, a huge, gleaming blade pierced through the mountain peak, narrowly missing its newly grown head by a hair's breadth!
What is this?
I woke up from a sweet dream to find that my body had fully recovered. Although it was not fully restored, I could already move around flexibly.
With a roar, Sukuna-ki burrowed through the soft soil, causing the entire mountain range to tremble. With a slight exertion, his body broke through the mountain's seal and reappeared under the sun.
He shook the dirt off his white hair, searching for that wretched enemy, and looked up—
Sukuna saw a giant white dragon hanging high above the abyss, shining as brightly as the sun.
