The moonlight gradually deepened, the moon had reached its zenith, and there wasn't a single cloud in the sky, not even many stars.

The enormous crescent moon hung in the sky, illuminating everything on the ground, truly not a good time for murder.

However, the thick smoke from the exploding tanks and armored vehicles on the ground still rose upwards like wisps of cooking smoke.

The countless pits on the ground looked as if they were caused by meteorites. If it weren't for the surrounding greenery, one would think it was a filming location simulating the lunar surface.

The explosions caused forest fires, and smoke billowed everywhere. If it wasn't contained, it would likely lead to disaster.

But no one paid attention to the forest fire. Two enormous figures, like demons and gods stepping out of ukiyo-e prints, stood facing each other on this ravaged land.

What was a forest fire compared to these demons and gods capable of destroying nations?

In the air, the Tengu were also engaged in a fierce battle. Some of the more intelligent Tengu had long noticed the powerful defense of the Tengu General.

Even the Karasu Tengu, with their average intelligence, noticed the only different color on the Red Oni's red skin—the purple Hundred-Eyed Demon on its forehead.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon and the Red Oni were in a semi-fused state. Their physical bodies were partially merged, and their spirits were independent yet adjacent.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon had to suppress the other chaotic spirits within the Red Oni's body, consuming a great deal of attention. Its current strength was only half of what it would normally be. Fortunately, thanks to the Red Oni, it currently had unlimited stamina.

The movement of these few Karasu Tengu flying over was quite loud. The Red Oni and the Hundred-Eyed Demon noticed them immediately.

However, they didn't stop them, but instead allowed the Karasu Tengu to attack the Hundred-Eyed Demon.

Although the Hundred-Eyed Demon was relatively weak among the Demon Lords, it was still a Demon Lord, not something these cannon fodder could handle.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon instead used its mental power to control several Karasu Tengu, using them to attack other Tengu.

The battle between the Tengu General and the gigantic Red Oni was also very exciting, making for a great spectacle.

Especially the Tengu General, who had gained the martial arts sensitivity of the Sojobo of Mount Kurama. He had previously seen countless sword masters practice.

He had also seriously studied swordsmanship, and a few years ago, he even won the runner-up prize at the Jade Dragon Flag Tournament, a major kendo event for young people in the Sakura Country.

In order to better fight the youkai, he had used connections to bring in some of the most famous sword masters in the Sakura Country to learn swordsmanship.

These masters usually didn't show their faces, and many had long stopped teaching disciples, but the government departments used their connections.

Of course, it wasn't enough to invite those reclusive masters. They were very rigid on certain principles.

But the Sakura Country government was rich and generous. They originally wanted to refuse, but they offered too much...

Especially the title of contemporary swordsman. It was very rare for the government to grant titles to sword masters. At that time, one could go down in the history of this school.

Naturally, there were also people with lofty ideals, but if other schools of the same generation had it and you didn't, what would the students of this school across the country think?

Those lofty ideals eventually succumbed to pressure and went to teach Ashiya Subarashi swordsmanship. His swordsmanship talent wasn't particularly high, only at the level of a normal person. He couldn't learn many secret techniques and mysteries at all.

But in this state, those obscure techniques in his memory were as easy as picking them up, and swinging his sword was like swinging his arm.

Many secret mysteries of various schools in his memory could be easily used by the Tengu General.

If it wasn't for the Hundred-Eyed Demon assisting in observing the trajectory of the Tengu General's sword and predicting it in advance, the Red Oni would have been seriously injured long ago.

The Red Oni was injured, with seven or eight wounds of varying sizes on its body, none of which were fatal.

They both wanted to end the battle quickly. Ashiya Subarashi used the power of the Chi Mei Wang Liang to simulate the power of the Great Tengu. Fighting consumed this energy, and although it would slowly recover, his fighting time wouldn't be particularly long, at least not for days and nights.

The Red Oni also relied on people's fear as energy to repair its own injuries. As time went by, the consumption of energy became greater and greater. The Red Oni could certainly handle this high-intensity battle, but the Hundred-Eyed Demon couldn't.

The speed of replenishing magic was limited, and the Hundred-Eyed Demon's spirit would be overwhelmed after fighting for a few more hours.

Both only knew their own shortcomings and didn't see through each other's weakness.

Except for the Swallow Return, which even the principle was not understood and not passed down, the Tengu General could use all the moves that Ashiya Subarashi had seen.

What Okuyama Nenryu, Kakinuma Ittoryu, Mirai Kinenryu, Hozanryu, Okumura Nitoryu, Yagyu Shinkageryu…

The state of the gigantic Red Oni was very similar to Boros, but the Tengu General was still faster.

But the Red Oni made big, sweeping movements, and its strength was at least twice that of the Tengu General. But with big, sweeping movements, there were many unnecessary actions.

Often, the Red Oni was cut seven or eight times before it could punch the Tengu General back. But the Tengu General's vitality was strong, but its recovery speed was still normal, far behind the Red Oni.

Watching the world-destroying melee gradually drift away, Jon felt a sense of powerlessness. He couldn't beat either of them, and he didn't even have the courage to chase after them.

He didn't have Crimson King and was injured. He couldn't run fast, and he couldn't escape in a crisis.

He didn't even have the strength to get close to them. Who would be responsible if he was accidentally trampled to death?

Heavily injured and without Crimson King, Jon's state could be said to be the worst it had ever been.

With a bang, there was some noise from the wreckage of the armored vehicle behind him.

Jon came with the sonic boom of the aftermath of the battle between the two great youkai. In the deafening sound, Jon's footsteps were perfectly masked.

As soon as it came out, it spotted the flaming human next to it, and immediately the alarm bells rang.

Run! This was the only thought in Nurikabe's mind.

How could Jon let it have its way? "Divine Fire. Shiranui!"

Jon waved his right hand back towards the three-eyed Pekingese in front of him, and a fire spear as thick as a washbasin rushed towards Nurikabe.

It was nailed to the tree, and what came into Nurikabe's eyes was several cold glints. Several flying knives pierced into its stomach.

It cried out in pain, making canine snorts and sticking out its tongue.

This was its last image. Its feet were cut off by invisible sword blades. This was the attack of Hanged Man. Because it had lost Crimson King, Jon tried to avoid close combat with those youkai with strange abilities.

"Sorry, I have to borrow something from you… It won't hurt, it will be over soon…"

Nurikabe's eyes went dark, and its body suddenly felt so weak. Physical strength and vitality were draining crazily, and Nurikabe lost consciousness.

A dozen purple footprints stuck to this giant three-eyed Pekingese like plasters until the Pekingese's body began to gradually turn into black dots before Jon let go.

Highway Star absorbed the youkai's vitality, and its body felt a little better, but it was still far from fully recovered.

"It seems I still have to go get some health packs. I can't beat those two monsters, so replenishing my troops is also very good…"

Jon figured it out. Without Purple Haze, Shining Diamond, and no air thick with miasma, what was there to fight monsters for?

Jon thought of a bold plan…

ps: Is anyone there…
