"Not enough! Still not enough!"
Amakusa Shirō looked at the Crimson Orb in his hand, realizing that the Blood Realm contained far too little blood essence—not even one and a half measures. It wasn't enough to restore Shuten Doji to her optimal state.
As Amakusa Shirō grasped this, his eyes slowly filled with madness. He raised his hands high and shouted at the blood-red sky!
"Formidable enemies run rampant! They bully our realm! They see the Land of Yamato as empty! How can my people of Yamato endure such great humiliation! People of Yamato! It is time for you to demonstrate the Spirit of Yamato! The Soul of Yamato! Offer your Soul Blood! Annihilate the invaders!!"
Amakusa Shirō finally extended his wicked hand to all the people of Nihon. A terrifying power swept over everyone who had fainted, beginning to extract their Soul Blood essence. The young and strong could hold on for a while, but the old, weak, and sick couldn't last long.
For a time, large amounts of blood essence began to surge from all over Nihon, converging into several Servants. Amakusa Shirō was throwing caution to the wind; he was furious! Furious at himself for not being decisive enough. Before, he was only two Secret Realm Fragments short of filling it completely. If he had chosen to sacrifice some Nihon people then, he could have quickly formed a complete Blood Realm! Things wouldn't have turned out this way.
Now, all the blood essence accumulated in the fragments had dissipated. Filling them again would require time and effort he couldn't afford right now. So, instead of sending the extracted blood essence into the blood-red light pillar, he poured it all into the Servants!
"Aaahhhh!!"
This action certainly had an effect.
"Roar!!"
A blood-flame dragon flew from the sky! It was an Eastern dragon, similar to a flood dragon, with chaotic blood flames, a single horn on its head, and only two claws! Its massive, dozens-of-meters-long body charged towards Mo Shuying!
Mo Shuying showed little emotion in the face of the attack. Suddenly, strong lightning erupted from his entire body, and a Thunder Giant rose from the ground! Mo Shuying manifested the form of the God of Thunder with lightning! He reached out his hands towards the pouncing fire dragon!
"Boom!!"
The fire dragon collided with the Thunder God's arms. The massive Thunder God's body shook violently, revealing numerous cracks, as if it were about to collapse.
But then, look at the fire dragon.
"Ow!"
The fire dragon's horn was broken off, and it let out a sorrowful cry as it retreated, only to be seized by the throat by the Thunder God! The Thunder God tried to choke it to death! But suddenly, several gigantic snake shadows appeared around the Thunder God, rapidly coiling around its body and tightening their grip!
"Hmm?"
Mo Shuying turned his head to look at a spot not far away, where blood essence swirled. Amidst it, a woman was forming hand seals. An enormous eight-headed snake shadow flew out from beside her; she was controlling the giant snake shadow to bind the Thunder God's body! She intended to crush that body!
"Not bad, finally some resistance."
Mo Shuying glanced at Mochizuki Chiyome, and with a thought, a large amount of lightning descended! The lightning repeatedly struck the fire dragon, making it constantly wail in pain.
Meanwhile, Mochizuki Chiyome looked up. A bolt of lightning fell directly towards her, but just as it was about to strike, it was hit by another purple lightning bolt! This prevented the heavenly lightning from falling!
"Roar!!"
With a mighty roar! Mo Shuying saw an Ushi-oni, shrouded in lightning and blood essence, striding towards him! It wielded a gigantic Doji-giri Yasutsuna. Clearly, Minamoto-no-Raikou was back!
"Two snakes! One ox! Do you people of Nihon not have any normal folks?"
Although the Thunder God's body had begun to shatter, Mo Shuying remained completely unperturbed, even cracking a few jokes.
With a cracking sound, the Thunder God's arm, which was gripping the fire dragon's neck, shattered. The Thunder God's body began to collapse completely.
"Roar!!"
Seeing this, the fire dragon thought its chance had come. It opened its mouth and began to spew flames. What should have been blue dragon flames had turned into eerie red under the influence of the blood essence!
"Whoosh!"
The dragon flames passed through the broken Thunder God's body and slammed into the ground, instantly engulfing it in fire and spreading rapidly!
But after the fire dragon's attack, both Kiyohime, who had transformed into the fire dragon, and Mochizuki Chiyome, who had summoned the giant snake shadows, were stunned! Because they couldn't see Mo Shuying!
Such a large person! Just vanished before their eyes?
And just as they were searching!
"Boom! Boom!!"
Two bolts of lightning struck an empty space nearby. The lightning faded, revealing Mo Shuying holding Mjolnir high.
The lightning was absorbed by Mjolnir, and the charged Mjolnir began to display its true power!
Mo Shuying raised the thunder and slammed it down onto the ground!
"Storm of Myriad Thundering Strikes!"
"Boom!!"
More than a dozen towering lightning pillars instantly spread out like blooming flowers! Everything around them was instantly engulfed by lightning. The fire dragon was repeatedly struck by the lightning pillars! It wailed as its fire dragon form dissipated, turning back into a blue-haired girl who fell through the air and vanished.
Mochizuki Chiyome was a bit further away, but she was still hit by the edge of the lightning. Her blood essence was instantly shattered, and she was sent flying, crashing to the ground, her fate unknown.
Only the Ushi-oni, into which Minamoto-no-Raikou had transformed, extended its hands and blocked the force with Doji-giri Yasutsuna, preventing itself from being defeated. But the look in her eyes as she gazed at Mo Shuying was filled with much unwillingness.
At this moment, Mo Shuying stood upright, holding Mjolnir, and looked at the Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou, smiling.
"Want to keep going?"
"..."
The Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou glared at Mo Shuying. Without another word, after a roar, lightning surged around her! Four lightning-formed clones immediately split off from her side.
The clones, wielding various weapons, charged fiercely towards Mo Shuying. The main body, meanwhile, gripped its sword with both hands, unleashing its final strength!
Yet, it was all in vain. Even though they had been empowered by blood essence, with their attributes boosted several times over, why! Why were they still no match?!
"Boom!"
Mo Shuying's right arm transformed into the Divine Arm, and gripping Mjolnir, he quickly smashed the approaching Thunder Giant clones to bits. But these were secondary attacks; the real threat lay with the main body of Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou.
However, Mo Shuying frowned, not because he was worried about Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou's attack—with Mjolnir in hand, Mo Shuying feared no lightning. His frown was due to a massive demon that had appeared behind Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou!
"Roar!!"
The colossal demon let out a roar! Its mouth stretched to its widest extent! In one bite, it tore off Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou's head!
The attack came without any warning; Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou had no time to react before she was completely disoriented.
"Crunch, crunch!"
After that single bite, the massive demon chewed a few times and swallowed Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou's head. Then, it seized Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou's body with both claws and began to devour her rapidly!
A massive Ushi-oni was, at this moment, being torn apart and consumed by another giant demon, like a fragile chicken!
Mo Shuying watched this scene, somewhat shaken. That colossal demon, devouring its own kind! It must have been Shuten Doji, transformed.
And as Ushi-oni Minamoto-no-Raikou was devoured, the aura of the demon that Shuten Doji had become surged to an entirely new level!
