Sendai Barrier, East Gate.
As the second battlefield, the intensity of combat here was no less than at the North Gate.
The battle at the East Gate was equally fierce.
However, the greatest sacrifices were not the Jujutsu Sorcerers at the East Gate, but the Rabbit Escape and Dragon Tooth Soldiers.
With a continuous stream of Rabbit Escape distracting the Cursed Spirits, the Jujutsu Sorcerers at the East Gate also changed their fighting style.
From initially charging head-on and fighting Cursed Spirits, they shifted to quietly retreating, then suddenly leaping out with a single blow to obliterate a Cursed Spirit when its attention was drawn by the tempting rabbits, and immediately returning to the front line to hide.
One Grade 1 Cursed Spirit controlled by Tamamo-no-Mae was not tempted by the Rabbit Escape and charged directly towards the East Gate position with hundreds of other Cursed Spirits.
What awaited it was Naobito Zen'in's iron fist.
Naobito Zen'in was a long-renowned Grade 1 powerhouse.
He had exorcised more than one Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
A single Grade 1 Cursed Spirit was no match for him.
Using Projection Sorcery.
Naobito Zen'in appeared like a ghost before Cursed Spirits, one after another, using his absolute power to utterly destroy those Cursed Spirits that were charging the front line.
While any means are acceptable on the battlefield, Naobito Zen'in was the leader of the East Gate front line.
Others could use any method to exorcise Cursed Spirits.
But Naobito Zen'in could not; he had to crush the enemy head-on with absolute power.
Only then could he maximize morale boosting.
"Hmm?"
Naobito Zen'in's gaze spotted an incredibly fast figure.
Wind blew past Naobito Zen'in, leaving a bloody mark on him.
Naobito Zen'in's Projection Sorcery was interrupted, and he fell into a 1-second stun.
The next moment, a giant mace swung towards Naobito Zen'in.
Bang.
Naobito Zen'in was sent flying by the coordinated attack of two Cursed Spirits.
"Oh no, cover Naobito Zen'in-sama."
Several confidantes from the Zen'in Family immediately wanted to step forward.
"You few don't need to come over; leave this to me."
Naobito Zen'in quickly returned to the front.
"That big guy looks good."
The speaker had a rugged face, a large scar on his forehead, and his bare upper body revealed well-built muscles.
He was Special Grade Sorcerer, Naoya Zen'in.
From his name, it was clear he was related to Toji Fushiguro.
In fact, not just him, Toji Fushiguro was also Naobito Zen'in's nephew.
If it weren't for Toji Fushiguro's parents' undeniable lack of ability, and Toji Fushiguro himself being an extremely special Heavenly Restriction.
Perhaps Toji Fushiguro could have lived the life of a Young Master, thanks to his relationship with Naobito Zen'in and Naoya Zen'in.
Unfortunately, fate is strange.
"Haha, don't try to steal my prey. That one over there looks good, but this one is mine."
Naobito Zen'in laughed and rejected Naoya Zen'in's request.
These two quasi-Special Grade Cursed Spirits had just sent him flying; wouldn't it make him seem incompetent if he didn't fight back?
"Is that so?"
Naoya Zen'in glanced at Naobito Zen'in and did not object.
"That Cursed Spirit over there also looks good. If you can't find a suitable one, you can go play with it."
Naobito Zen'in pointed to a quasi-Special Grade Cursed Spirit that was only two or three meters tall, covered in muscles.
From its appearance, it was clear that the source of this Special Grade Cursed Spirit was related to a violent gang.
"A worthy opponent for a punch."
With that, Naoya Zen'in threw a punch at the quasi-Special Grade Cursed Spirit.
Clearly, he was also a powerhouse specializing in hand-to-hand combat.
"Now it's our turn."
Naobito Zen'in looked at the quasi-Special Grade Cursed Spirit, Kamaitachi, hiding among the Cursed Spirits, and the red demon, five meters tall, wielding a mace.
"A quasi-Special Grade Kamaitachi, huh? I remember it's been a long time since a Kamaitachi of this level was born."
With the development of the times, all kinds of information spread wider and wider.
People knew more and more yokai, and the status of Kamaitachi also decreased significantly.
People's fear of Kamaitachi also diminished greatly, shifting instead to those more powerful yokai.
This also made Cursed Spirits related to Kamaitachi much weaker in recent decades.
"A Kamaitachi from ancient times, interesting."
Naobito Zen'in looked at the red demon and Kamaitachi with interest.
Even with his rich experience, having seen all kinds of Cursed Spirits, he had encountered many Cursed Spirits that only existed in ancient texts since the war began.
Apparently, the Cursed Spirits found Naobito Zen'in uninteresting.
After waiting for a while and realizing Naobito Zen'in wasn't attacking, they proactively launched an attack on him.
Bang.
Fist and mace collided.
Naobito Zen'in took the red demon's attack head-on.
"It's time to settle the score for that sneak attack earlier."
Naobito Zen'in threw another punch, directly shattering the mace.
A faint blue wind quietly appeared behind Naobito Zen'in.
Whoosh.
The attack missed.
"Too slow!"
When it came to speed, Naobito Zen'in had never feared anyone.
At this moment, in the sky above the East Gate.
Uro Takako was directing countless flying Cursed Spirits to surround Qiongqi.
Qiongqi also continuously stirred up fierce winds to scatter these Cursed Spirits.
'Opportunity.'
Under the entanglement of a large number of Cursed Spirits, Uro Takako finally broke free from Qiongqi's entanglement and flew towards Eichi.
Seeing this, Eichi stopped increasing the number of Rabbit Escape.
Shadows rose around Eichi, then countless shadows shot towards Uro Takako like bullets.
Sand Shower: Modified, Shadow Shower.
After flying towards Uro Takako, the shadows began to continuously surround her, attempting to envelop her.
Under Uro Takako's Technique manipulation, space deformed like a curtain.
Uro Takako slid continuously through the air using her feet against the space.
"Do you want to participate in a skateboarding competition?"
Eichi suggested to Uro Takako.
"Huh? What's that?"
Uro Takako clearly didn't know what skateboarding was.
"I'll take you to try it another day, then you'll know."
Saying this, Eichi also controlled the shadows to move.
With the help of the shadows, he maintained his distance from Uro Takako.
"Who wants to go play with you?"
Uro Takako continuously sped up.
"Always running, are you even a man?"
Uro Takako, unable to catch up, became somewhat exasperated.
"No way, no way, you want me, a Shikigami user, to fight you with fists?"
"But if you sincerely ask me, it's not like I can't consider it."
Eichi said, mimicking Gojo Satoru's tone.
The two had been fighting for a while, and Eichi had a rough understanding of Uro Takako's personality.
She was a relatively simple aunt, with a slightly short temper, easily provoked.
"Who's asking you? Die! Ugyo Rodan!"
An enraged Uro Takako casually grabbed a Cursed Spirit and shot it out like a cannonball.
"Orochi!"
A snake tail emerged from Eichi's shadow.
A swing of Orochi's tail exploded the Cursed Spirit used as a cannonball.
The snake tail retracted, Orochi gathered power, leaped, and bit towards Uro Takako.
Uro Takako grabbed the space where Orochi was, then spun around and threw Orochi back.
Orochi dissipated into shadow before hitting Eichi.
Eichi also used the cover of the shadow to instantly complete a swap with a Clone.
