Chapter 952 – Corpse God
”The sword you wanted.”
With a casual toss of her hand, Muji threw the [Burial Mountain] in her hand into Amamiya Haruhide’s hand, and spoke with an expressionless face, as if she had not just shaken a mountain, but had only gone to pull a weed, calm and unperturbed.
”Shota, was sister just awesome?” She walked over to Hoshimi Shota and cupped his face with her hand, a teasing smile surfacing on that indifferent face.
Hoshimi Shota’s cheeks reddened and he took two steps back, “Also, it was just average.”
”Is that so? Then when we go back at night, elder sister will let you see a more powerful ……”
”Demon, demoness! Don’t talk nonsense!”
While Hoshimi Shota was being madly molested, Amamiya Haruhide took the sword, looked down and scrutinized it for a moment, and nodded slightly.
He put down the wooden box behind him and opened it up, and inside the wide box were four Banezu swords neatly arranged, emitting different luster.
Amamiya Haruhide was about to place the [Burial Mountain] into it as well, when the mountain under his feet violently trembled once again!
Everyone present turned their gazes to the aside Takehime.
Wu Ji raised an eyebrow, “Why are you looking at me? It’s not me this time.”
”Not you?” Furuhara Yoshiki spoke in confusion, “Then who else could it be?”
Rumble ……
A low humming sound emanated from beneath the mountain peak, and the cracks that had already spread all over the mountain spread crazily once again, as a large amount of debris rolled down from the top of the mountain, causing dust to rise in all directions.
A dark and bizarre pillar of light suddenly erupted from the shattered crater, piercing through the heavy clouds and rushing straight into the sky!
A cold and ancient aura rushed out from the top of the mountain, a low roar echoed within the mountain, and a palpitatingly terrifying aura suddenly descended.
The moment she felt this aura, Wu Ji’s face changed slightly, she reached out her hand to protect Hoshimi Shota behind her, her eyes staring tightly at the black pillar of light at the top of the mountain, gravity written all over her face.
”What is that thing?” A look of shock surfaced on Furuhara Ryoki’s zombie-like face.
”…… It’s a Corpse Beast, a Corpse Beast that was contained from the body of that Tientsin God at the bottom of Mount Fuji.” Amamiya Haruhide looked like he had thought of something, his brows furrowed tightly, “‘Corpse God Arching Land’ …… turns out to be this meaning.”
”What? Why didn’t I understand?” Hoshimi Shota asked in confusion.
”This corpse of the Tianjin God was suppressed under Mount Fuji for endless years, and the residual divine power in its body did not dissipate, but was sealed in this mountain.
Originally, even if the [Burial Mountain] was pulled out, there wouldn’t be any accidents, but since the appearance of that power that is strong enough to erode the human heart, the corpse of the Tianjin God has also been contaminated, and an incomparably powerful Corpse Beast has already been born underneath the peak of this mountain where the divine power is stored ……
No, in terms of the total amount of divine power it inherited, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a Corpse God.”
”So, after the [Burial Mountain] was pulled out, that Corpse God came out?” Yuzurina felt the aura coming from within that sky-rocketing pillar of black light, and her pale little face was filled with worry, “What should we do then?”
”…… Run!”
Furuhara Yoshiki and Hoshimi Shota shouted in unison, and without the slightest hesitation, the four of them turned their heads and rushed straight downwards along the gradually shattered mountain.
From the top of the mountain rushed up to the clouds of the black column of light, more and more thick, the mountain trembled fiercely, suddenly, a huge hand from the crater of the sky outstretched, heavy slap in the ring around the mountain, directly the mountain again shocked out a hideous gully.
Immediately after, a black head without five senses, will slowly rise from the crater, followed by the neck, torso, limbs ……
When its body was complete and crawled out from under Mount Fuji, the giant shadow had completely obscured the dim sun in the sky, casting shadows that were enough to cover half of the city, the sunlight was engulfed by the contours of its pitch-black body, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
Although it didn’t have the aura of the power of law, the divine pressure emanating from it was a solid divine realm.
”This thing is also too big, isn’t it?” Furuhara Yoshiki turned back to look at the huge, gigantic shadow standing at the top of the mountain and couldn’t help but speak, “If this foot goes down, a small half of the city will be lost.”
”It was born from a corpse of a Tianjin God with its divine power preserved intact, it’s not even on the same level as those Corpse Beasts we saw before.”
The Corpse God standing at the top of the mountain slowly turned its head, its black face without five senses, and looked down at these few mole crickets that were frantically fleeing Mount Fuji.
In the next moment, a vertical gap suddenly split open on its face, and behind the jagged fangs was a blood-red void.
Facing the direction that the four had fled from, strong divine power rapidly converged in front of the gaping hole, flashing with a red shimmering light.
Boom-!!!
A thin red line, shooting out from the rift, instantly swept along the shattered mountain toward those four figures, roaring explosions of fire rushing up along the path!
”Duck!!!”
When Amamiya Haruhide saw this scene, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he violently kicked Furuhara Ryoki in the chest, sending him flying, and with his other hand, he held Yuzurina in his arms and jumped towards the right side of the mountain.
On the other hand, Muji, who was guarding Hoshimi Shota’s side, took him in her arms at the first opportunity and avoided the red line with a swing of her body.
Blinding flames took over everyone’s sight, and a terrifying wave of air lifted them off the ground, and in the endless splattering of debris, their figures crashed heavily to the ground.
”Brother Amamiya!”
Yuzurina climbed up from the ground, and exclaimed in shock when she saw that Amamiya Haruhide’s back had been scraped out by the debris with a bloody scar.
”It’s just a small injury, I’m fine.” Amamiya Haruhide re-draped his black kimono, took a deep breath, and climbed up from the scorched black earth full of cracks, with a pair of eyes staring deathly at the Corpse God at the top of the mountain.
A second red shimmering light had already begun to brew at its cleft.
Feeling that heaven-destroying terrifying aura, Amamiya Haruhide’s face was gloomy, and as if he had made up his mind about something, he removed the wooden box behind his back and handed it to Yuzurina’s hands.
”Brother Amamiya?” Yuzurina froze.
”That thing’s attack is too far away, if it continues like this, we’ll all die here.” Amamiya Haruhide spoke calmly, “Notify Takibai to come over, you and Kuwabara take these Banezu Swords and leave first, I’ll stall it for a while.”
”Amamiya, that’s ……”
Furuhara Ryoki, who had just staggered up from the ground, froze slightly when he heard those words, and seemed to be about to advise something when Amamiya Haruhide interrupted him.
”Go.”
Clank-!
Only a crisp sword chirp rang out, and the dark blue longsword was pulled out from its sheath.
[Rain Bash] was sheathed.
Ka-ching!
A thunder streaked across the sky, and a drop of rainwater cut through the dim dome and landed on top of the dark blue blade, shattering into tiny droplets and bursting apart.
Immediately followed by a second drop, a third drop ……
In an instant, the pouring rain blasted down from the dome of the sky, like a silver river in the sky, flooding the devastated Mount Fuji.
