Chapter 921 The Sword of Certain Death
Two moons in the sky, a crimson hue spreading.
Countless whispers exploded in the ears of Merlin and Susanoo, like thousands of silver needles piercing their consciousness and spirit, leaving their minds riddled with holes.
Merlin’s pupils contracted slightly, his once clear eyes becoming clouded. His brows furrowed as he covered his ears with both hands, as if struggling.
The corruption of the red moon takes time to erode one’s mind. Even though Merlin actively dispelled his mental magic, exposing himself to the corruption, his willpower and wisdom still allowed him to maintain his rationality while listening to the whispers.
However, the simultaneous appearance of two red moons, coupled with the mental fatigue from using powerful forbidden spells throughout the day, made his consciousness begin to blur.
He had to use all his rationality to fight against the corruption to prevent the two red moons from completely taking over his body.
ROAR—!!!
Susanoo, pinned under the demon-suppressing ring, his eyes blood-red, suddenly let out a roar as divine power surged through his body!
In the distance, the crimson ocean began to boil, several hundred-meter-thick water columns shot into the sky, transforming into blood-colored serpent heads, dancing wildly under the twin moons before crashing heavily onto the surface of the demon-suppressing ring!
A dull thunderous sound echoed through the heavens and earth.
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!
Under the continuous impact of the blood sea serpent heads, a crack appeared on the surface of the demon-suppressing ring. He glared with his frenzied blood-red eyes and suddenly raised the Kusanagi sword in his hand!
The blade of Kusanagi easily cut through the demon-suppressing ring, the golden light shattering inch by inch. The magical array’s backlash made Merlin’s face pale, and the redness in his eyes intensified slightly…
Merlin’s usually calm mind was stirred with waves of turmoil, his expression becoming unsightly.
Damn! This sword is too troublesome!
The Kusanagi sword, capable of cutting through all things, rendered even Merlin’s sealing forbidden spells largely ineffective. The demon-suppressing ring was among the top-tier sealing forbidden spells he possessed, yet it was still forcibly broken when the opportunity arose…
Without dealing with this sword, Susanoo’s combat power would be incomparably terrifying!
Susanoo’s figure rose from the shattered golden light, his enraged eyes looking in the direction where the carriage had departed. He raised the Kusanagi sword once again, releasing a surge of killing intent.
This is bad!
Merlin, as if realizing something, quickly flashed away, instantly opening layer upon layer of instant magic arrays in front of Susanoo!
Susanoo ignored these magic arrays as if they weren’t there, channeling all his power into his right arm, and suddenly threw the Kusanagi sword toward the direction where the carriage had departed!
The Kusanagi sword transformed into a dazzling white light, instantly piercing through the void. The blade’s rapid cutting through the air produced deafening sonic booms, invisible shock waves destroying all buildings and ground in its path.
Where the blade went, destruction followed.
The instant magic arrays in Kusanagi’s path were torn apart like paper, but the next moment, dozens of new instant magic arrays would appear to block the sword’s path!
Merlin, his eyes blood-red, barely stabilized his stance, his right hand’s magic staff frantically flickering with light, creating instant magic spells at an astounding speed every second.
In less than three seconds, Merlin had instantly created 3,333 magic arrays, forming a corridor of intersecting magical light barriers in front of that sword shadow!
But the time was too short. Each instant magic array could only slightly weaken the sword’s power. The Kusanagi sword continued to pierce through one magic array after another with unstoppable momentum, disappearing beyond the horizon in the blink of an eye.
…
The silver carriage raced across the shattered ground.
“Uncle Merlin…”
The roar of explosions came from the distance. Lin Qiye frowned as he looked in that direction, quickly standing up from his seat and reaching to open the carriage door…
His hand stopped in mid-air.
Lin Qiye stood there, his eyes full of struggle.
After a moment, he sighed and sat back down, his hands tightly clenched on his knees until his knuckles turned white.
Before this, he hadn’t realized that when Merlin said he had some small matter to attend to, he meant holding back Susanoo’s pursuit… but now everything was set in motion, and if he made any rash moves at this point, it would only cause more trouble for Merlin.
A soft hand gently gripped Lin Qiye’s clenched fist, and Jialan’s voice came from beside him.
“Don’t worry, Uncle Merlin will be fine… He is the great God of Magic and Prophecy!”
Lin Qiye turned to look at Jialan’s pure eyes, and after a moment of silence, nodded.
“Mm.”
Lin Qiye took a deep breath, about to say something when suddenly a strange sense of agitation welled up in his heart. The three mental magic spells Merlin had left in his body suddenly began to fluctuate violently.
Has the magic failed to suppress the red moon’s corruption?
Lin Qiye was slightly startled and suddenly looked up at the sky. At some point, a second red moon had appeared, both moons emitting an unsettling red light, mysterious and eerie.
“Two red moons?” Lin Qiye muttered to himself.
Earth only has one moon, this is indisputable, so why were there two red moons in the sky above Takamagahara?
If the original red moon was formed by the corruption of the Cthulhu gods on the moon, then what was this second red moon?
While Lin Qiye was deep in thought, outside the carriage on the desolate ground, several red-eyed corpse beasts noticed the rapidly moving carriage. Operating purely on instinct, they immediately let out a roar and charged forward one after another.
The silver carriage streaked across the ground like lightning, heading straight for the Gate of Summoning. It was moving too fast; none of the corpse beasts it had attracted could touch the carriage itself, at most only trailing far behind like a black wave, roaring as they surged forward.
Lin Qiye saw this scene through the carriage and frowned slightly.
He looked back in the direction the carriage was heading, where the enormous Gate of Summoning was now within reach, no more than two kilometers away.
For the silver carriage, this distance was but a moment’s journey; the wave of corpse beasts behind them couldn’t possibly catch up.
Lin Qiye let out a slight sigh of relief.
Just then, as if sensing something, he suddenly turned to look behind the wave of corpse beasts, where a white sword light was breaking through layer after layer of magic arrays like lightning, shooting rapidly toward them!
The blade that could cut through all things instantly shredded the bodies of over a dozen corpse beasts into pieces scattered through the air. These beasts, which could match “Klein” level beings, didn’t even have time to let out a cry before dissolving into the air.
Cutting a bloody path through the wave of corpse beasts, its speed showed no signs of slowing. Terrifying sonic booms crossed the sky as the cold sword light carried overwhelming killing intent, aimed directly at the silver carriage!
This was the ultimate strike of Japan’s last deity!
This was Takamagahara’s supreme weapon of destruction!
The Kusanagi sword.
