Meanwhile, Tengen and Yuki's faces were extremely solemn.
Yuki still looked calm on the surface, but she was secretly analysing in her heart.
She roughly estimated that Choso's strength was at the top level even among first-grade sorcerers.
If the one facing Choso was her, would she be able to handle Choso's attacks so easily like Kenjaku?
Although the fight between the two had just begun, it was obvious that their levels were not the same at all.
The difference was visible to the naked eye.
However, Tengen knew very well in his heart that it was absolutely impossible for Choso to defeat Kenjaku.
The difference in their strength is one reason, but another reason is that Choso originated from a Death Painting.
The Curse Womb Death Painting was created by Kenjaku himself.
Choso's Blood Manipulation Technique was pretty easy to see through for Kenjaku.
This is why Tengen chose to use, utilize, and even sacrifice Choso from the very beginning, to force Kenjaku to use techniques other than those of Geto Suguru's.
"The limit of the Blood Manipulation Technique is still there. Choso, give him some more pressure! Please!"
As he spoke, Tengen also glanced at the four disaster curses who were watching with great interest.
Boom!
Choso's attack once again shook the entire Tombs of Star Corridor.
After dodging the attack, Kenjaku still smiled calmly and said, "Come to think of it, I should be considered your father, right?"
"Am I right? The first of the nine Death Paintings."
Gentle words came out of Kenjaku's mouth, but they sounded extremely harsh to Choso's ears.
"Father?"
Choso laughed in anger, his bloodshot eyes staring at Kenjaku.
"How can a guy like you who plays with the lives of my brothers be called a father?"
Hearing Choso's outburst, Kenjaku spread his hands indifferently.
Among the so-called Nine Death Paintings, except Yuji, the rest were just failed experiments that he had abandoned.
However, Tengen kept them like a treasure in the Tombs of Star Corridor, which was ridiculous.
It seems that not being able to assimilate an astral plasma vessel for too long has not only greatly reduced his strength, but also his IQ?
Without saying anything more, Choso fired several more shots at Kenjaku.
Whoosh!
The blood arrow shot out through the air, rapidly approaching Kenjaku.
However, the gap in strength was obvious, and Choso's attacks were unable to hurt Kenjaku.
All of his efforts were in vain.
Kenjaku could quickly dodge and even continuously interfere with Choso's attacks.
He had perfectly inherited the strength that Geto Suguru had during his lifetime, and he had even gone a step further.
Moreover, his other abilities had still not been revealed.
"You're really too weak, let Tengen come out to face me."
As the cold words came out, countless twisted tentacles shot out from behind Kenjaku.
And under Kenjaku's control, these tentacles grew into human faces.
Seeing this, Choso's mood calmed down instead.
This is exactly the result he wants to see.
Although he doesn't know which option Yuki will choose in the end, it's always a good idea to force Kenjaku to use new techniques so that she can get more information.
This way, the chances of Yuki defeating Kenjaku will be even higher.
Thinking of this, Choso suddenly kicked the ground with both feet.
His eyes widened, and he roared, "Come on! An old monster who has lived for a thousand years, can he only rely on cursed spirits to fight?"
The compressed blood drop that had been prepared in advance suddenly flew out from Choso's hand.
Supernova!
Boom!
The blood drops were splashed forward and exploded instantly, blasting the attacking human faced tentacles into powder.
However, the thousand-year-old Kenjaku wasn't panicked.
Instead, he used the blood curtain formed by the explosion of Choso's technique to quietly circle around Choso's side.
The next second
Bang!
A powerful elbow strike hit Choso's chest, and the strong impact made him lose his balance.
The fist that he had swung out instinctively was easily dodged by Kenjaku by tilting his head.
A second elbow strike from the side hit Choso's cheek.
The physical attacks left Choso powerless to fight back for a while.
Bang!
A fist filled with cursed energy blasted Choso away, and blood splattered in the air.
Choso decisively dug his five fingers into the ground, leaving a long scratch, and only then was he able to stop himself.
Kenjaku, confident of victory, smiled triumphantly and was about to pursue Choso relentlessly.
But he found that something was off.
Choso slowly raised his hand and revealed a ferocious smile.
What's going on?
A bad premonition made Kenjaku stop decisively, and then his eyes widened.
Unexpectedly, a walnut-sized ball of blood appeared behind him.
The next second
A violent explosion sounded throughout the Tombs of Star Corridor.
The explosion of the blood core splashed blood all over the air, covering the entire area.
Looking at his masterpiece in front of him, Choso wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.
This was his unique skill that he had created in the heat of the moment while he was being beaten just now.
He had quietly left a time bomb for counterattack beside him.
Even Kenjaku should be facing some trouble at this point.
However, the next second, an unpleasant applause sounded.
The blood mist dissipated, and Kenjaku appeared before his eyes, intact.
A cursed spirit with only half of its body left after being blown up stood in front of him.
Kenjaku casually discarded the broken skin of the cursed spirit and said coldly, "Not bad. You are so stubborn. You actually learned to use dirty tricks. You are much better than your two dead brothers."
"You bastard!"
Choso clenched his fists and stared at Kenjaku. He knew that Kenjaku was talking about his brother's, Eso and Kechizu.
Kenjaku said, "Instead of insulting me, you should worry more about your dear brother Yuji, he is a much greater threat than me."
Choso roared, "Nonsense! All this strife was definitely not caused by Yuji. In actuality, a bastard like you who is worse than a beast is the true cause of all this mess!"
After saying that, another blood arrow pierced through the air.
Kenjaku sighed helplessly, looking as if he had suffered a great injustice.
This time, he did not choose to dodge, but used his five fingers to actually extinguish the blood arrow that was attacking him.
Then he sarcastically said, "Your blood-piercing ability is indeed powerful, but to me it is just a water arrow shot by a child when playing."
"I can't even feel any pain."
Choso ignored Kenjaku's words and continued to gather himself.
However, his eyes suddenly widened, and he found that his feet were actually locked by the centipede cursed spirit.
It seems that he had underestimated the cunningness of this thousand-year-old demon.
Kenjaku actually took advantage of the moment when he was distracted by his talk.
He silently released the centipede cursed spirit from underground to approach him.
Moreover, every word he said was enough to touch his heart deeply.
The dangerous thing about Kenjaku is not his combat power but his strategy and planning.
His intelligence far exceeds his strength.
Before Choso could break free, Kenjaku's fist had already hit Choso's face hard.
The heavy blow caused Choso's face to twist horribly.
Looking at Choso who had fainted temporarily on the ground, Kenjaku glanced at the gate beside him and sneered.
"Tengen, no matter what, you are an old fellow who has lived for a thousand years."
"Isn't it too low of you to send this kind of rubbish to test me?"
"With his strength, he can't even force me to use high-level cursed techniques. My fists are the greatest gift I can give him."
Now that Gojo has been sealed, and Kazuma has entered the Culling Game, there is no major threat to him
No matter how powerful Kazuma is, it is impossible for him to clear the game in just one day.
Therefore, although Kazuma usually disrupts his plans, the general happenings were still under his control.
The initiative is on his side.
If he is not mistaken, the person hiding behind the gate should be Yuki, right?
This special-grade sorcerer is Tengen's final trump card.
