Capítulo 47: Chapter 47: Domain
If the [Extreme Formula] is the ultimate technique beyond all techniques other than domains, then [Domain] is the ultimate goal pursued by all sorcerers!
A so-called [Domain Expansion] refers to a sorcerer or cursed spirit expending a vast amount of cursed energy to construct a domain around them, which applies their techniques.
Within a domain, the user receives corresponding buffs and guarantees that their techniques will hit.
In other words, it's an absolute terrain advantage!
Why did Shinsuke say that what he was facing was a pseudo-domain?
Because it only contained cursed energy but no actual techniques.
In simple terms, it's like building a house but not setting up any guards or traps inside.
When outsiders enter, they might be unfamiliar with the environment but won't face any real danger.
To kill the intruders, the house owner would have to act personally.
In contrast, a true domain is like a fully armed fortress; just moving a finger would unleash a barrage of attacks to annihilate any intruders.
The analogy might not be perfect, but it gets the point across.
Once Shinsuke confirmed this, he breathed a huge sigh of relief.
After all, he didn't want to enter a real domain and fight a [Special Grade Cursed Spirit].
That would mean his chances of winning were less than ten percent.
Even lower!
"I need to find that idiot Hidan quickly."
Shinsuke muttered to himself and then began to run at high speed to explore.
After turning into an unknown number of caves, he suddenly stopped, his face turning cold and somewhat terrifying.
On the wall was a body dismembered into pieces and embedded accordingly.
The top had the body, the bottom had the legs, and the sides had two arms, but the head was missing.
Below the wall sat a humanoid creature.
Though this cursed spirit had a human shape, it was clearly not human.
Standing at two and a half meters tall, with an exceptionally muscular physique, pale skin, and four protruding eyes on its forehead.
Its round head had no hair, ears, or nose.
Just its appearance was enough to scare away ninety-nine percent of children.
More importantly, this creature was now sitting on a stone, holding Hidan's blood-stained scythe in its right hand and tossing a human head with its left hand, seemingly in a good mood.
Seeing Shinsuke's arrival, the four-eyed cursed spirit stopped its actions and held Hidan's head in its hand.
At the same time, Hidan's closed eyes suddenly opened!
Upon seeing the visitor, he said without hesitation: "Help me kill him, preferably chop him into eighteen pieces. Consider it a favor owed to you!"
Clearly, the fact that the arrogant Hidan was willing to say "owe you one" showed just how enraged he was!
Even when Shinsuke previously helped him and crafted the Triple-Bladed Scythe, Hidan had never said such a thing.
[Bonded Character Hidan has issued a task to you!]
Task: [An Eye for an Eye]
Content: Eliminate the [Special Grade Cursed Spirit - Greed] and chop it into eighteen pieces.
Reward: Black Flash, Cursed Soul Points X5000, Bond Points +100.
PS: As the saying goes, "One should look at the owner when hitting a dog." Now that someone has bullied your pet, handle it yourself.
Shinsuke nodded seriously, "Okay!"
Even without the system-issued task, he would still want to take down this cursed creature and avenge Hidan.
After all, only he could beat and scold his own pet; no one else was allowed to touch it!
Moreover, using such an insulting method to display Hidan as a specimen and toss his head around was infuriating.
"That's a kind of play even I haven't tried!"
Shinsuke seemed to be engulfed by darkness, his eyes glowing red.
Knowing how terrifying a [Special Grade Cursed Spirit] was compared to the previous fodder, he started to prepare his true skills.
The familiar blood-red marks suddenly appeared...
But this time, the blood mark was no longer just an 'X'.
An empty circle appeared at the intersection of the 'X' marks, with vertical lines extending upwards to the hairline and downwards through the eyes to the cheeks.
[Crimson Scales Activation: Load]!
As the upgraded version of [Crimson Scales], [Crimson Scales Activation: Load] provided an overall enhancement to physical attributes, making it even more formidable.
More importantly...
"Be careful, this monster is very fast!"
Hidan only had time to give this warning before the four-eyed cursed spirit pinned him to the wall like a mural.
Then the four-eyed cursed spirit rapidly moved to Shinsuke, its scythe swinging down!
The speed of the attack had previously caused Hidan a great deal of suffering.
But Shinsuke not only responded calmly but also accurately caught the opponent's opening and attacked even faster!
Boom...
Bang!!!
The four-eyed cursed spirit was immediately thrown backward at an even greater speed, first embedding into the wall like Hidan and then directly smashing through it.
A terrifyingly deep fist imprint caved in its entire chest!
"I can control all components in the blood to enhance any part of my body, including these eyes."
"Don't mistake me for the idiot hanging on the wall!"
(Hidan: Thanks a lot!)
Techniques revealed, achieved!
Revealing cursed techniques during combat can enhance their effectiveness and power.
Clatter...
The four-eyed cursed spirit, expressionless, stood up from the rubble, its collapsed chest almost instantly restored.
[Reverse Cursed Technique - Healing]!
Using cursed energy to heal, even regrowing severed limbs or a heart!
Unless the true core is destroyed, even decapitation or a smashed heart would be ineffective.
This is the terrifying nature of a [Special Grade Cursed Spirit]!
Compared to that, Shinsuke felt his own immortality was weak in comparison.
No wonder Hidan had suffered so badly.
Buzz...
The four-eyed cursed spirit suddenly opened its mouth wide, and an orange-yellow wave of light shot out.
Boom!
The ground where it was hit was instantly turned into a two-meter-wide, thirty-meter-long trench.
Shinsuke, who had evaded using his speed, couldn't help but marvel, "Just releasing cursed energy can cause such destruction. If you continue to grow, it's truly formidable."
