"Great Catfish!"
Facing the unknown strength of Adam, Kenjaku had no intention of fighting. He immediately unleashed a special Cursed Spirit with illusionary abilities.
The Great Catfish was a special Cursed Spirit born from humanity's fear of earthquakes. It could make targets experience illusions as if they were on the edge of an abyss, causing them to involuntarily fall to the ground.
However, the Great Catfish's illusion clearly had no effect on Adam. Adam merely looked down, then gently stomped his foot, and the entire ground actually shook as if there were a real earthquake.
When Gohan was in school, he could cause an earthquake just by stomping his foot in the classroom. Adam's current combat power was no less than Gohan's at that time.
For a Cursed Spirit born from humanity's fear of earthquakes, encountering a real earthquake could only lead to one outcome.
In the face of immense power, the special Cursed Spirit, the Great Catfish, was instantly shattered.
"Absorb!"
Adam did not let go of the shattered Great Catfish. Instead, he raised his hand and absorbed it, directly transforming the dead Great Catfish into Cursed Energy and devouring it all into his Cosmo, merging it with the Planet representing Cursed Energy.
The Cursed Energy within Yuji Itadori's body was not particularly strong, so the Planet representing Cursed Energy in his Cosmo was also the smallest.
To enrich the Cursed Energy Planet, he tried devouring Cursed Spirits in the same way he would devour the Spirit King.
The result was clearly effective.
"This is a good method."
After devouring the Great Catfish and noticing that the Cursed Energy of the Cursed Energy Planet had increased, leading to an overall power boost, Adam couldn't help but stroke his chin.
In this World, as long as there are humans, there will be negative emotions, and there will be an endless stream of Cursed Spirits born, and he will have an endless supply of Cursed Spirits to devour.
"What exactly are you?"
Seeing Adam directly devour the Great Catfish, Kenjaku's eyes widened instantly.
Devouring Cursed Spirits—is that something a human can do?
Although Suguru Geto's Cursed Technique was said to be devouring Cursed Spirits, that wasn't entirely accurate, because the fundamental principle of his Cursed Technique wasn't truly swallowing Cursed Spirits into his stomach to absorb and digest them; humans couldn't do such a thing.
Suguru Geto's Cursed Technique was fundamentally similar to the principles of a traditional Jujutsu Sorcerer's Shikigami.
The only difference was that normal Jujutsu Sorcerers form contracts with Shikigami to become partners in battle, while Suguru Geto's Cursed Technique replaced Shikigami with Cursed Spirits, and the partner contract with a master-servant contract, with no limit on the number.
But what had he just seen? He had seen Adam directly transform the Great Catfish into Cursed Energy and devour it into his body.
That's why he suspected whether Adam was truly human.
He had lived for over a thousand years, and this was the first time he had encountered such a thing. It truly was a rare sight.
However, his reaction was also swift. Despite his surprise, his body didn't hesitate for a moment. Taking advantage of the instant Adam devoured the Great Catfish, he quickly retreated, preparing to counterattack.
Adam's speed was too fast; he felt that simply fleeing would likely be futile, so he had to employ some means.
But Adam could devour Cursed Spirits and grow stronger. If he continued to release Cursed Spirits, it would only make Adam more powerful and terrifying.
"Black Mucus!"
With a flicker in his eyes, Kenjaku released a special grade Cursed Spirit.
Even Dagon was almost instantly killed by Adam, so Black Mucus, a special grade Cursed Spirit much weaker than Dagon, was naturally no match for Adam.
However, he felt that it might serve some special purpose.
Because Black Mucus, this special grade Cursed Spirit, was a curse born from humanity's negative emotions towards cockroaches. It wielded the Rotten Life Blade, a Cursed Tool containing insect eggs, and had a special attack against humans.
Of course, the most important thing was that this Cursed Spirit looked incredibly disgusting.
"An open scheme?"
The moment the new special grade Cursed Spirit appeared, Adam's brow couldn't help but twitch.
Because in an instant, he guessed Kenjaku's objective.
If he devoured Black Mucus, how would it be different from eating a giant cockroach?
And such a large cockroach, even during a battle, one wouldn't really want to touch it, would they?
At this point, he couldn't help but recall the Nine-Turned Intestines incident.
"Domain Expansion: Maggot Infestation!"
As soon as Black Mucus appeared, it launched its Domain against Adam, and its Domain was also super disgusting.
Because this was a World filled with maggots and cockroaches, Black Mucus was hidden among this army of maggots and cockroaches, ready to ambush Adam at any moment.
"This is really all about being disgusting, isn't it?"
Adam looked at the countless flying cockroaches and wriggling maggots around him, and couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
A normal person truly wouldn't know how to deal with this.
Especially close-combat Jujutsu Sorcerers, it would truly be disgusting with every punch, and vomit-inducing with every step.
"Fiendfyre!"
Fortunately, although Adam had just been displaying close-combat abilities, in reality, he wasn't just limited to close combat.
A giant blue Dragon flew out from Adam's hand, circling around once, and all the cockroaches, maggots, including the hidden Black Mucus and the entire Domain, were all incinerated into thin air.
It was just a special grade Cursed Spirit; he didn't need it. Anyway, there were plenty of Cursed Spirits in this World, and they were endless, so there was no need to be so economical.
"Maximum: Uzumaki!"
The moment Black Mucus's Domain shattered, Kenjaku, who had condensed all the collected Cursed Spirits into one, seized the opportunity to launch his strongest attack against Adam.
"Is that all?"
Seeing a large amount of Cursed Energy condense into an Impact similar to a Kamehameha, Adam couldn't help but smile wryly.
In the eyes of Jujutsu Sorcerers in this World, a pure Cursed Energy attack with widespread destructive power was actually the most difficult technique to deal with.
Because it was truly raw damage. Besides confronting it head-on, there was generally no other way, unlike functional Cursed Techniques which could be countered with other Cursed Techniques.
However, in Adam's eyes, this kind of technique was precisely the most useless.
Because the Cursed Energy Impact he was seeing now, in terms of combat power, was probably only around five thousand. It wasn't even as powerful as a casual ki blast from him.
Hitting him would be like a gentle breeze, not even requiring defense.
"What!"
Seeing that his strongest Cursed Technique attack had absolutely no effect on Adam, unable to even break through his defense, Kenjaku's heart was also greatly breached at this moment.
He truly couldn't understand how there could be such a strong Jujutsu Sorcerer in the World, and crucially, he had lived for a thousand years and had not known about it at all.
Even Gojo Satoru couldn't take this blow of his like this.
"I originally intended to use it against Gojo Satoru, but now I can only use it on you."
After a series of probes, Kenjaku no longer held onto any Luck, and directly activated the special grade Cursed Object, the prison realm, which he had prepared to deal with Gojo Satoru, and was said to be able to seal any Jujutsu Sorcerer and Cursed Spirit.
The prison realm was a special grade Cursed Object formed from the physical body of the top Jujutsu Sorcerer, Monk Genshin, after his nirvana. As long as it appeared within four meters of the person to be sealed, and the time exceeded one minute, or the memory recall time in their mind exceeded one minute, it could seal them.
Just to be on the safe side, before Black Mucus activated its Domain, he had already released the prison realm.
If Maximum could not kill Adam, then he would proceed to use the prison realm to seal him.
