"Blood Manipulation Technique: Extreme Number - Blood Deception!"
Since all these shikigami had entered Shinji's domain, his curse techniques were now guaranteed to hit!
Snap!
Shinji snapped his fingers casually.
The moment he did, all the shikigami that had intruded into his domain exploded into a mist of blood, then sank into the blood sea below along with their remains.
If the original [Extreme Number - Blood Deception] had drawbacks such as difficult activation conditions and insufficient power, then after he acquired a domain, these drawbacks would completely disappear.
Shinji had merely used the special effect of [Blood Deception] to deceive and simulate the blood within these shikigami as his own.
Then, he used his curse energy to control this blood and cause destruction from within!
In other words, the greatest regret of Blood Manipulation Technique had been compensated for in another way in his hands.
Originally, the user of Blood Manipulation Technique could only control their own blood, but [Domain Expansion] + [Blood Deception] allowed him to control the blood of all living beings within his domain.
Here, with just a thought, he could make anyone explode and die!
Unless someone could isolate themselves, preventing the blood energy containing Shinji's curse energy from entering their bodies.
"It seems your shikigami are nothing special."
Shinji spoke the truth with a hint of mockery.
Tuogen grew angry. Using water as a medium, he summoned a large number of shikigami again.
And this time, there were almost no weaklings among them; they were mostly giant isopod shikigami.
These giant isopod shikigami, resembling giant isopods, were the strongest shikigami Tuogen could currently summon.
Their attack power could easily split mountains and rocks, and their carapaces were extremely tough, able to withstand direct attacks from curse tools without taking any damage.
If Tuogen had summoned these giant isopod shikigami from the beginning, Mei and Mangetsu Hōzuki might not have been able to hold on.
But as these seemingly terrifying giant isopod shikigami crossed the boundary and entered Shinji's domain, their fate was sealed.
Snap!
With a crisp finger snap.
The heads of all the giant isopod shikigami were pierced by spikes formed from their own blood.
"That's it? Anything else?"
Shinji's mocking voice rang out at the opportune moment.
But this time, although Tuogen was angry, he also calmed down a bit, knowing that continuing to summon shikigami would only be sending them to their deaths.
Within the opponent's domain, his shikigami were just targets.
Moreover, the opponent's domain was clearly not weaker than his. When two domains were activated simultaneously, it was like a large circle enclosing a small circle. The weaker party could only maintain a small circle within the stronger party's domain for self-protection.
But if the strengths of the two domains were similar, the current situation would arise: the two domains would clash fiercely, mutually compressing each other's domain range.
This was also the most dangerous form of confrontation!
"Although I really don't want to become like that, I must pass Father God's test!"
The calmed Tuogen actually underwent another drastic change in form.
Countless shikigami phantoms directly merged into his body, enhancing his strength in a different way.
When all the phantoms disappeared, Tuogen had transformed into a monster over 3 meters tall.
The hardened armor of the giant isopod shikigami covered his entire body. His left hand became a giant crab claw, and his right hand held a knight's spear that seemed to be made of fish bones.
Vivid blue ring-shaped patterns were distributed on his arms and legs, his feet were covered with powerful suction cups, and even his octopus head wore a green turtle shell.
Upon seeing this, Shinji felt that this guy's transformed form had a touch of the comical amidst the ferocious.
His gaze was always involuntarily drawn to the guy's head. Was this some kind of mental attack? Damn it!
After transforming again, Tuogen no longer relied on a large number of shikigami, because he himself was already the strongest marine creature!
Blue waves clung to his exterior, and Tuogen walked on the sea surface, directly tearing open the blood sea at the boundary and forcibly invading.
Shinji narrowed his eyes as he observed his opponent, secretly attempting to attack.
However, the blood energy that had always been effective could not break through the thin blue film on the opponent's body. It seemed the guaranteed hit effect had been lost.
Shinji then noticed a sea path extending from behind the opponent, connecting to the blue film on his body.
"He actually covered his entire body with his domain to resist the guaranteed hit effect of others' domains."
Shinji realized he had learned a new trick and immediately began to try it.
Although it was a bit clumsy and he couldn't quite grasp the knack at first, he quickly mastered the secret and successfully draped a blood veil over himself.
This way, even if the opponent escaped back into his domain, he could still pursue.
So he dispersed the blood veil, drew his Executioner's Blade, and leaped high from the throne.
Boom!
Shinji, descending from the sky, slashed at Tuogen's crab claw, which was firmly clamped onto it.
Then Tuogen counterattacked with a bone spear!
"The power of a whale!"
Shinji, holding his snakeskin sword in his other hand, blocked to the side. Instantly, a terrifying force, enough to change one's color, surged over.
Keep in mind that the effect of [Turtle and Snake Force Dissipation] reduced the impact force by 60% when receiving physical attacks.
Even so, the remaining force was astonishingly large!
Bang!
Shinji used the force to create distance.
He looked down; cracks had appeared on the Executioner's Blade. If it had been a moment later, it might have been broken by that giant crab claw.
"Now I possess the greatest strength in the sea, the fastest speed, the most ferocious poison, the hardest defense, and the sharpest weapon. Facing me like this, you have no chance of winning."
"Is that so? Then watch carefully."
Shinji suddenly looked up, discarded the Executioner's Blade and snakeskin sword in his hands, and formed hand seals.
"Blood Manipulation Technique: Blood Shadow Void!"
Under the reflection of the blood moon, Shijni's shadow grew infinitely on the blood sea. Then, upon reaching a certain critical point, it seemed to come alive, stirring up monstrous blood waves and engulfing Shinji in return.
Ten meters, twenty meters, fifty meters…
In the blink of an eye, a hundred-meter-tall half-blood giant appeared before Tuogen.
Splash, splash, splash…
The blood-colored giant raised its right hand from the blood sea, stirring up towering waves. In its hand was a giant blood-colored cross. If one looked closely, they could see dense, meaningless mysterious runes covering it, along with black chains wrapped around it. Moreover, the tip of the cross was actually shaped like a sharp arrowhead.
After the two exchanged glances, Tuogen, instead of showing fear, actively lunged forward, pouring all his strength into the spear in his hand!
Shinji also drew his right arm back like a bow and threw the Cross Annihilation Spear in his hand!
BOOM!!!
PS: In the original work, Domain Expansion and Innate Technique cannot be used simultaneously. However, the situation when using Domain Expansion on oneself while already having a domain active is unknown.
Therefore, a second setting is made here: when a domain is already active, extending a part of the domain to oneself for protection is feasible. The domain will not disappear directly, but Innate Curse Techniques cannot be used simultaneously.
