"Squelch!""Squelch!""Squelch!"...
The sound of a blade slicing through mortal flesh repeatedly echoed.
Like an exploding fireball resembling a red teor suddenly appearing on the ground, it darted around Knot at lightning speed, relentlessly attacking him, causing flaming slashes to land upon Knot ti and again.
Knot desperately activated the [Anti-gravity chanism] technique, using supergravity to influence Reiger’s slashes, struggling to maintain his lifeline, while desperately operating the reversal technique to heal his injuries. Yet, the healing speed couldn’t catch up with the speed of injury, causing his body to be drenched in blood and severely damaged.
Neck, heart, brain... these vital parts were slashed countless tis, leaving Knot’s neck barely half-connected to his body, with the other half spraying blood outward. A corner of his head was sliced off, faintly revealing the skull, and the heart area was visibly hollow, clearly pierced through.
As for other parts of his body, there’s no need to elaborate; at least one of Knot’s hands and feet were already missing.
Such severe damage made Knot anxious.
"Co forth! Prison of the Evil Road King!"
At the brink of life and death, Knot no longer held back, laying all his cards on the table.
He first seized an opportunity to summon a ghostly Curse Spirit wielding a long blade, and then summoned a gigantic Curse Spirit resembling a mountain god to guard his flanks.
These were the two most formidable Curse spirits under Knot’s command — one, a renowned ghost deity from folklore, and the other, a colossal spirit tied to myths from foreign lands. Their strength was only slightly inferior to that of entities like Rikka, and among the previous four special Curse spirits, possibly only Luohu and Mahito could surpass these two; Hanami and Dagon might not even match them.
"Roar!"
"Oooh oooh oooh...!"
Once these two powerful Curse spirits manifested, they imdiately crushed the ground beneath, emitting roars that shook the atmosphere, followed by one drawing its blade for a violent slash capable of carving a hundreds-of-ters deep trench, while the other pounded its fist, blasting a building to rubble.
Yet, their attacks still failed to catch up with the fla charging through the heavens and earth.
"Boom!"
The fla suddenly accelerated, like a fiery teor descending from the sky.
"Squelch!"
Blade light flashed as a slash ford by flas seed to cut through space itself, decapitating the ghost deity and slicing the mammoth mountain god-type Curse Spirit in half, turning them to ash.
Their might did not manifest in this battle; instead, they appeared painfully fragile.
Because, faced with Reiger’s ghost-cut, lethal to Curse spirits, they were at a disadvantage.
Because, faced with Reiger’s specialized attack capability, they were also restrained.
Even against Reiger’s Sun Breath, against sword techniques capable of purging malevolence, they were constrained.
Under triple suppression, however renowned or powerful they were, before today’s Reiger, they could only be slain with a single cut.
Knot understood this too.
He knew very well that attempting to threaten Reiger using two Curse spirits was utterly impossible.
Thus, he rely used these once-regarded trump cards as at shields to buy himself so ti.
Now, this precious ti has been successfully acquired.
"Domain Expansion!"
Entirely wounded, blood-soaked, resembling a broken, living corpse, Knot crafted hand signs while shouting.
"[Embryo Across the Fields]!"
Instantly, a pitch-black curse erupted from behind Knot.
Knot’s domain expanded but did not form a closed barrier; rather, like Ryonsukuna’s domain, it appeared openly.
Under such conditions, a black tree ford from countless cursed embryos appeared behind Knot.
The black tree stood tens of ters tall, its surface covered with twisted and tornted human faces, including a headless female body seemingly bound to the tree exuding black miasma; the base filled with ominous and grotesque statues whose heads, bodies, and limbs dripped black blood, instantly making one feel ntally tainted at first sight.
"Boom!"
In the split second Knot’s domain successfully expanded, gravity tens, hundreds of tis more dreadful than before crashed down, causing the fla hurtling mid-air, poised to slash Knot spectacularly once more, to uncontrollably plumt just before reaching him.
Reiger’s form erged from within the fla, his feet slamming heavily onto the ground, shattering it and lifting dense dust, resembling a teor landing.
"Gravity again?"
Feeling the terrifying gravity pressing upon himself, Reiger strained to control his body, preventing his knees from bending, staunchly resisting the weight, and his expression and gaze remained chillingly calm.
"[Extre Version · Vortex]!"
The creepy sensation from Reiger’s cold stare made Knot’s scalp tingle, causing him to instinctively unleash a maximum power attack, absorbing the thousand-plus Curse Spirits into a massive vortex, elevating a vortex of cursed power behind him.
In the next mont, all thousand Curse Spirits within the vortex were instantly disintegrated into cursed energy, forming an enormous torrent of cursed power surging towards Reiger.
