Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1321 - 947: Nullified Slashes

"When worshipping Buddha, the most important statues are often stored in a Buddha shrine called a ’Gohonzon,’ only publicly displayed on specific days. This display is also known as ’Gokaicho.’"

This is a passage from the "Capital City Temple Chronicles."

And when the demon god known as Ryomensukuna unleashed his own mystical domain—[Demonic Conqueror’s Shrine], Reiger witnessed this scene.

A Buddha shrine slowly rose from the rippling, mirror-like world reflection, appearing beneath a blood-red sky.

Above was an endless crimson blood mist.

Below was a reflection like a water surface.

Standing before the small palace-like shrine, was Ryomensukuna with a lawless grin on his face.

And that shrine had neither any holiness nor righteousness, instead appearing incredibly grotesque, adorned with trinkets resembling animal bones and skulls everywhere.

Rather than a Buddha shrine, it was more like a demon shrine.

Being in such a domain felt as if one was situated in hell.

Reiger opened his eyes and gazed at it all, his pupils flickered slightly, yet he made no response.

"Oh?"

Seeing Reiger unmoved, Sukuna lowered the hand that formed seals, and his deep voice emerged.

"Not unleashing a domain to counter me?"

"Could it be... you’re suggesting that even dealing with me doesn’t require opening a domain?"

"Or do you think, I’m not even as much as that trash you just crushed into a lump of meat?"

Sukuna still had a smile on his face, but the aura of murderous intent he emitted was astonishing, a pressure crashing down like mountains and seas, as if one was enveloped by endless bloody malice on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Reiger remained indifferent to such a Sukuna, and said with utmost calmness.

"Why don’t you try and see?"

As soon as his words dropped—

"Splat!" "Splat!" "Splat!" "Splat!" "Splat!"...

Suddenly, countless slashes suddenly landed on Reiger, slicing him hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of times!

Those were innumerable slashes, like a storm, resembling a tsunami, endless and boundless!

The slashes, these undoubtedly were Sukuna’s curse techniques.

Even without weapons, without media, they could be released with just a wave, invisible and without form, a technique existing for sole purpose of slaughter.

When Ryomensukuna opened his domain, utilizing the innate curse techniques imbued within, he would be able to shred everything with cursed energy within the domain to pieces.

Whether human or objects, they would endure unceasing slashes until death, this was the terrifying aspect of [Demonic Conqueror’s Shrine].

More frightening still, under the domain’s effect, the power of these countless slashes not only enhanced but gained absolute accuracy.

Even the [Limitless Cursed Technique]’s invulnerable aspects had no effect facing these endless slashes.

Against this domain existing purely for slaughter, the most suitable countermeasure was undoubtedly to similarly open a domain, contending for dominance over the domain.

Only by similarly opening a domain, could one resist the guaranteed hit effect of [Demonic Conqueror’s Shrine], preventing the slashes from reaching oneself.

So, when opening a domain, Ryomensukuna was mentally prepared for Reiger to do the same, and had made plans.

Who knew, Reiger exposed himself within his innate domain without even opening a domain.

This made Sukuna’s lawless smile disappear once more.

Now, he no longer cared about the so-called Divine General, only wanting the arrogant, conceited brat before him to taste a dreadful death.

This Sukuna didn’t notice that when his slashes descended, a red-golden light of magic power briefly flashed on Reiger’s body.

Thus—

"What?"

In amazement, Sukuna looked at the scene before him.

Only to see, amidst the unending slashes, Reiger was unharmed.

"[Radiant Golden Red Body]."

An unknown defensive magic had already been unleashed by Reiger.

It was a tenth-level defensive magic capable of nullifying slash-attributed attacks and enhancing resistance to slashing, and had always been one of Reiger’s most common defensive spells.

When this defensive magic was activated, the first descending slash was completely nullified, and the subsequent slashes also due to Reiger’s own resistance to slashing attacks, coupled with magical reinforcement and immensely high "Endurance," were resisted.

Following that, Reiger swiftly waved a hand, releasing a formidable invisible slash of his own.

"Boom!"

The slash landed on the demon-like shrine, blowing away countless bones amidst a roar.

"Brat, you..."

Leaping in time to avoid the slash, Ryomensukuna’s eyes flashed red.

Reiger still paid no mind to Ryomensukuna, extending his hand to form a blade sign.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...!"

Countless blood-red whips immediately broke through the water reflection, surging towards the airborne Ryomensukuna as if to engulf the sky.

"Splat!" "Splat!" "Splat!" "Splat!"...

Ryomensukuna’s face turned grim, the domain filled with countless slashes, cutting and even disintegrating the approaching blood-red whips.

"Swish!"

At this moment, Reiger’s figure suddenly appeared behind Ryomensukuna, throwing a punch downward.

"Bang!"

The punch without cursed energy landed on Ryomensukuna’s back, yet the astonishing force exploded, still sending him crashing towards the ground.
