Swish, swish, swish.
Cold sword light swept through the entire cave.
Maki began to move rapidly through the cave at an astonishing speed.
Countless attacks enveloped the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's entire body.
In front of the Awakened Maki, the Special Grade Cursed Spirit quickly became exhausted from defending, and its situation became precarious.
Splat.
Another tentacle was severed.
The Cursed Spirit's octopus-like lower body tentacles were all cut off by Maki in a very short time.
At this moment, these tentacles could only writhe uselessly on the ground, waiting for the moment of their dissipation to arrive.
"So strong, it's really not good to make Maki angry."
Panda stared dumbfounded at Maki, who was dissecting the Special Grade Cursed Spirit that had previously been beating them, treating it like an ordinary octopus.
He even stopped stuffing cotton.
"Salmon."
Inumaki Toge nodded in agreement.
After a few throat lozenges, Inumaki Toge's condition recovered slightly.
Just now, in order to better cover his companions, Inumaki Toge had to carefully observe the Cursed Spirit's movements.
Therefore, Inumaki Toge already had many pale marks on his body due to the curse.
But luckily, the result was good.
They successfully held out until a variable appeared.
Inumaki Toge was not worried about the curse on his body.
Because they found that this curse was not irreversible.
As long as they didn't go completely mad like the villagers who were turned into Octopus People.
As Jujutsu Sorcerers, they could gradually expel the curse.
So Inumaki Toge just needed to be careful to protect himself with Cursed Energy and not be pulled into a dream by the Cursed Spirit's Cursed Technique, and the problem wouldn't be big.
At this moment, Inumaki Toge did not pull up his collar, but stood in front of Panda, ready to support Maki at any time.
Seeing this, Panda didn't say much, quickly dealing with the damage on his body to prevent more cotton from leaking out.
Suddenly, a huge amount of Cursed Energy erupted from the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's shattered body.
Panda and Inumaki Toge were greatly alarmed.
The next second, the location of the few people changed.
The dim cave disappeared, and the few people arrived at an ancient architectural complex.
This architectural complex was not complete, clearly part of some ancient city.
At the edge of the ancient architectural complex, a pitch-black barrier could still be seen.
"Domain Expansion!"
The three immediately realized their situation.
Panda ignored repairing his body and immediately took out a cylindrical cursed tool.
"New Shadow Style · Simple Domain."
The Cursed Technique stored in the cursed tool was used by Panda.
The Domain's sure-hit effect was immediately neutralized by the Simple Domain.
The inspiration for this cursed tool came from Mechamaru's battle with Kokichi Muta and Immortal Master.
Eichi asked Medea to create a cursed tool that could store the New Shadow Style · Simple Domain and reached a cooperation with Ashiya Ayaka, the head of the Shinkage-ryu.
Currently, this type of Domain cursed tool has been purchased and collected by many great Families and Grade 1 Jujutsu Sorcerers.
You can never have too many trump cards.
Shinkage-ryu gained a lot of income and a large amount of prestige in this cooperation.
Eichi also gained a means to protect his companions.
With this cursed tool, Kento Nanami wouldn't have to show that sad expression after being pulled into a Domain by Immortal Master, would he?
The Cursed Technique stored in the cylindrical cursed tool Panda was using at this moment was personally injected by Kusakabe Atsuya, the strongest of the contemporary Shinkage-ryu.
Even the Special Grade Cursed Spirit in front of them could not break it in a short time.
However, unlike Panda and Inumaki Toge, who were protected by the Simple Domain.
Maki currently had no protection.
Green tentacles formed by Cursed Energy continuously attacked the double-edged greatsword in Maki's hand, and roaring sounds came from Maki's location.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Maki's figure had disappeared, leaving only the double-edged greatsword that Maki had originally held in her hand.
"Maki!"
Seeing this scene, Panda couldn't help but exclaim.
The next second, Panda seemed to realize something.
"Inumaki, it's time to go all out."
"Salmon."
Inumaki Toge nodded in response.
Panda took out all the cursed tools on his body.
Then, holding a slayer demon in one hand and the katana that Maki had previously left at the cave entrance in the other, he began to block the Cursed Spirit's attacks.
Inumaki Toge, protected behind Panda, picked up the rockets and firearms on the ground.
He began to continuously attack the Cursed Spirit in front of him.
The Cursed Spirit was very large, so there was no need to aim; just pull the trigger and it was done.
Hmph.
A large number of attacks landed on the Cursed Spirit's still regenerating body.
The intense pain attracted the Cursed Spirit's attention.
The Special Grade Cursed Spirit began to attack Panda with all its might.
Under the Special Grade Cursed Spirit's full-power attack, the Simple Domain used by Panda was quickly worn down by more than half.
The Cursed Spirit's massive body directly came in front of Panda.
Clearly, this Special Grade Cursed Spirit wanted to end the battle as quickly as possible with its size advantage.
"Take this!"
Panda suddenly threw the katana in his hand towards the Cursed Spirit's octopus-like head.
The Cursed Spirit only slightly tilted its head and dodged the katana's attack.
However, a figure that the Special Grade Cursed Spirit had not expected appeared and caught the katana thrown by Panda.
"It's over."
Maki's eyes flashed fiercely, and before the Special Grade Cursed Spirit could react, she cut off its head, and then countless sword lights flashed.
The Cursed Spirit's octopus head, which was much larger than Maki, was shattered to pieces.
The current Maki, like Toji Fushiguro, has a reverse Heavenly Restriction with completely 0 Cursed Energy.
Therefore, the Domain cannot recognize Maki.
In the Domain's judgment, Maki was like a stone on the ground.
But this Special Grade Cursed Spirit did not know this.
The Cursed Energy source locked by the Domain was the Thousand Machine Umbrella in Maki's hand.
Not Maki.
Therefore, Maki went with the flow, dropped the Thousand Machine Umbrella at the appropriate time, and left the Domain at an extremely fast speed.
That's right, Maki could ignore the Domain's confinement and leave the Domain directly.
Because the Domain would not recognize Maki.
Unless it was like Megumi Fushiguro using a physical entity as the Domain's shell, or modifying the Domain's conditions.
Or obtaining Maki's consent.
Otherwise, the Domain's barrier would only treat Maki as an existence like a building and ignore her.
Panda also realized this when he found no trace of blood on the ground.
After all, they were companions who spent day and night together, and Panda also guessed Maki's thoughts.
So he found an opportunity to cooperate with Maki, handing her the katana that had been pulled out of the Thousand Machine Umbrella's handle and left at the cave entrance.
Maki also lived up to their expectations and successfully exorcised the Cursed Spirit.
"Great job, Maki!"
Panda gave Maki a thumbs-up.
"Salmon."
Although Inumaki Toge's throat was uncomfortable, he still happily echoed.
"Isn't that obvious?"
Maki picked up the double-edged greatsword, inserted the katana into the gap at the bottom, and then transformed the Thousand Machine Umbrella back to its original form.
During the battle just now, Maki's uniform also suffered a lot of damage.
Her hair, which had been tied up high, had also come loose.
Under the pure white Thousand Machine Umbrella, Maki, smiling from the bottom of her heart, completely shed the madness of a tyrant and a battle god.
She was as dazzling as a goddess descending upon the battlefield.
"Hey, what's wrong with you guys?"
Maki held the umbrella, looking strangely at the two people who suddenly froze in place.
"Maki."
"What's wrong?"
Maki looked at Panda strangely.
"Want to go shopping for clothes this weekend?"
He hadn't thought much of it before, but at this moment, Panda truly believed that Maki was wasting her beauty.
What kind of thing was it for such a beautiful person to only wear tracksuits every day?
"Huh? Why are you suddenly talking about this?"
Just as the few of them were chatting and laughing in the cave, enjoying the joy of victory.
A figure completely shrouded in a large cloak, with stitches on his forehead, arrived outside the village.
