Chapter 401: The Crying Demon Sword Sky
Chu Jiang had already been on guard against Yamata no Orochi’s move. He waved his hand, using the power to interfere with reality, and swept away the eight tails from a distance.
However, one special tail unexpectedly withstood Chu’s Jiang’s power, shooting towards him without changing direction!
So, using the "authority" bestowed by 666, Chu Jiang made the earth split open, causing a violent tremor in the Ghost Abyss, and trapping Yamata no Orochi deep in the crack, as if it had been banished to hell.
The tails have a certain length limit and were dragged by Yamata no Orochi’s main body, forcefully moving away from Chu Jiang’s body.
However, from the tip of this tail, a sharp blade shot out! It shimmered with a cold light, aiming directly at Chu Jiang’s forehead.
Chu Jiang calmly reached out his right hand and forcefully grabbed the blade.
But this long knife was terrifyingly sharp, actually cutting through Chu’s Jiang’s flesh and penetrating the bones.
Chu Jiang was holding the tip of the knife, but the blade continued to advance along his palm, almost hitting him.
Before Chu Jiang could completely deal with struggling Yamata no Orochi underground, the rain that had been falling from the sky suddenly pierced through the Sun Ghost Domain and silently dripped onto Chu Jiang’s head.
Moreover, the long sword he was holding scattered and splashed like water, and every droplet aimed at his head.
Seeing countless droplets about to hit him, Chu Jiang’s eyes suddenly froze, freezing time in this moment!
Then the droplets retreated, either leaving his Ghost Domain or turning back into the long sword that dripped rainwater.
Just as Chu Jiang was about to use the power of the Blood Hand Ghost to suppress and seal this "demon sword," suddenly all the rainwater from the Ghost Abyss above and the sky came pouring down!
It should be noted that Chu Jiang’s time restart also has its limits and cannot cover the entire Ghost Abyss.
Feeling the increasing pressure, Chu Jiang quickened his movements, combining the powers of the Black Sun and Blood Hand Ghost to cover the demon sword in a flaming red color.
This thing seems to be not a ghost, but a very special seal. This is the first time Chu Jiang has encountered a ghost that uses a seal. This Yamata no Orochi is indeed very special.
However… Chu Jiang once felt that the death threat posed by this sword is greater than Yamata no Orochi itself, but he’s not sure if it’s just his imagination.
With this thought in mind, Chu Jiang successfully suppressed this strange and eerie long sword, which means that this attack was interrupted.
Before Chu Jiang could temporarily put away the long sword, he heard a crisp "ding~!" sound.
This sound, this sound… like the sound of metal hitting metal.
Wait! Chu Jiang’s eyes widened. In the moment he realized something was wrong, he saw everything in front of him collapse and disappear like snow.
After everything faded away, Chu Jiang found Yamata no Orochi standing unharmed not far away from him. Its cold eyes showed no emotions, and one of its tails lifted slightly, pointing towards itself.
However, the sharp snow-like long sword was not held in Chu Jiang’s hand, but floating in the air. It seemed that in the previous second, it pierced through a black iron box in front of his forehead.
Holding the box was a female ghost dressed in a white bedsheet.
This was one of the minions forcibly contaminated and transformed by Chu Jiang when dealing with the false god last time; it had been hiding in Chu Jiang’s watch, and just now it held the black box to block the lethal strike for him at the critical moment.
Of course, the Nun Ghost didn’t possess this level of intelligence. Chu Jiang had simply set its action mode in advance. When the owner was attacked by a long sword-like sharp object, it would come out on its own to block the attack.
This mysterious metal box didn’t have a single scratch, even though it was hit by a magical knife.
The attack was interrupted this time, and Chu Jiang also broke free from the illusion. The long knife silently slipped from his hand and ultimately fell to the ground before being caught by Chu Jiang.
It was not until this moment that Chu Jiang knew what had happened…
He had indeed entered the state granted by 666, and he had indeed fought through the ocean of negative emotions. Ghost Diary had indeed controlled all the vengeful spirits and helped him bear the damage.
However, from the moment the eight snake heads bit him, Chu Jiang fell into an illusion, brought by the enchanted knife, Sky Crying!
Chu Jiang had always believed that the power of illusions was the ability of Yamata no Orochi itself.
But looking at the current situation, it was clearly the power of this knife.
It would make it rain without clouds in a certain area. Even if people were protected by their own supernatural powers and not directly in contact with the rain, they would still be affected.
The reason why the Peaceful Spirit Garden trio and Chu Jiang were trapped in the illusion world was because they got caught in the rain when they entered the Ghost Abyss.
And now, facing the real form of the demonic sword, Chu Jiang fell into even scarier illusions. He thought he had suppressed Yamata no Orochi and the sword, but in reality, he had been standing still since crossing the ocean.
If Chu Jiang hadn’t learned about the prophecy from the Ghost Diary before and had it confirmed by Soga Hayayuki, he would have already been struck by a sword and lying dead here.
When Chu Jiang realized what was happening, he was attacked by Yamata no Orochi, which had lost its sword and used its eight snake heads to bite!
But at this moment, Chu Jiang had already adapted to the enemy’s attacks and knew that the real threat of this giant snake lay in its ability to trigger negative emotions. The rest was not enough to defeat him!
It was almost like replaying the previous battle in the illusion. Chu Jiang trapped the giant snake underground and caused a thunderous explosion.
In the end, he succeeded in sealing the genuine body of the snake, which was definitely not a fake, inside a jar.
When Chu Jiang finished all of this, he noticed that the children’s spirits who had been afraid to approach Yamata no Orochi were all falling into the depths of the Ghost Abyss, confused one by one…
This confused Chu Jiang. It was understandable if they didn’t receive salvation, but why were they still falling?
Suddenly, Chu Jiang saw the Headless Guardian Deity again. It looked almost unchanged, and the entire Ghost Abyss seemed to be the same.
Even though Chu Jiang put away the magic sword, Xiao Yu, who has been following him, disappeared. But the roaring and moaning still echoed, and the tempting power of the Ghost Abyss remained. It seemed like everything Chu Jiang did was in vain.
"What is this?!" Chu Jiang couldn’t believe it as he examined the giant snake that had just been sealed away.
At this moment, the snake had lost its physical form and transformed into an eight-headed black crystal, resembling a piece of art.
After a long silence, Chu Jiang forcefully removed the ghost mask from his face, allowing the Ghost Diary to take back the ghost. If the Ghost Diary could curse, it would probably be cursing Chu Jiang by now because the negative emotions still lingered and would take some time to dissipate.
Chu Jiang didn’t have time to pay attention to the diary. Combining his previous encounters with faces of people from different countries and various skin colors in the Sea of Negative Emotions, he had a bad suspicion.
Perhaps… the true ghost is not Yamata no Orochi, but this Ghost Abyss itself.
Lastly, it’s possible that the Ghost Abyss contains the negative emotions of the entire world, yes, the entire world, not just the island country.
