Chapter 65: Martial God Possession, Activate
The scorching sun hung high, cicadas chirped everywhere, and the morning dew hung dripping, resembling countless crystal-clear, radiant jewels dangling from the tips of lush green grass.
On the road, Alex Moyan strolled along, followed by an Assistant Supervisor in a black suit.
"Since this Special Grade Cursed Spirit was arranged by the Zenin Family, I really want to see what kind of Cursed Spirit it is that can hold me up for a day."
Alex Moyan smiled faintly, feeling a slight anticipation in his heart.
The Zenin Family probably wouldn't bring out an ordinary Special Grade.
It should be a Cursed Spirit whose strength is not inferior to the level of the later four calamities.
"Since they are sending a benefit, I will naturally accept it properly."
There was still one day left before Satoru and the others returned to Tokyo Jujutsu High.
In Okinawa, after Satoru and Amanai Riko and the other two finished their rich breakfast at the hotel,
they continued to tour Okinawa.
On the other side, Satoru had already arranged for his junior Haibara and Nanami Kento to wait at the airport, ready to receive the group at any time.
As a result, Satoru, feeling sorry for Amanai Riko, ended up playing for another day and stood Nanami and the others up.
In the mountain village, Alex Moyan was on his way to fight monsters.
Looking at the gradually revealing villa, Alex Moyan frowned and suddenly stopped his steps.
"Wait."
Alex Moyan reached out to stop him.
The Assistant Supervisor stopped in confusion: "What is it, Lord Alex Moyan?"
Alex Moyan glanced ahead, then kicked a small stone by his feet.
The stone hadn't flown two meters before it mysteriously vanished.
"This is?"
The Assistant Supervisor behind him looked ahead with surprise and doubt.
"It's the Innate Domain of a Cursed Spirit."
Alex Moyan spoke.
The Assistant Supervisor said incredulously: "Impossible, how could there be such a huge Innate Domain."
"There are still hundreds of meters from here to the destination!"
Alex Moyan said lightly: "Nothing is impossible, it just means you have never encountered such a powerful Cursed Spirit."
"You wait here, I will go in alone."
Alex Moyan said: "Put up the Curtain."
The Assistant Supervisor hesitated, looking somewhat embarrassed: "Um, Lord... My Cursed Energy isn't enough to put up such a large Curtain."
Alex Moyan didn't turn back and walked straight in. A small black ball traced a perfect arc in mid-air, landing exactly in the Assistant Supervisor's hand.
Soon, the black Curtain, like an inverted giant bowl, completely enveloped an area of one li around them.
Entering the Innate Domain, Alex Moyan felt as if he had just passed through a water membrane.
The scorching sunlight and the noisy cicada calls instantly vanished.
What greeted Alex Moyan was a dim, cold, and hazy mist.
A winding path appeared before Alex Moyan; this path hadn't been visible in his previous line of sight.
The atmosphere grew increasingly bizarre. For ordinary people, perhaps their hearts would already be pounding with fear and anxiety.
But for Alex Moyan, such things were commonplace.
Alex Moyan followed the path forward and soon arrived at a large gate.
"It seems the Zenin Family really splurged this time."
Alex Moyan looked at the gate, which had become tall and solemn, no longer resembling the villa he had seen before.
It looked more like a manor inhabited by a medieval noble, occupying a vast area.
It would look even more like it if beautiful roses could be planted at the entrance.
Alex Moyan slowly walked into the manor, strolling leisurely as if he were walking in his own garden.
Under this bizarre Innate Domain, ordinary Jujutsu Sorcererss would probably be sweating profusely, their nerves stretched taut.
Alex Moyan looked around with interest.
A wide square, a fountain, flower beds, a huge four-story Western-style building—everything was there.
"This is the first time I've seen such a tasteful Innate Domain."
Alex Moyan quietly admired everything before him.
After eliminating so many Cursed Spirits, this was the first time he had seen an Innate Domain possessing this kind of Western fairytale aesthetic.
"Perhaps this Cursed Spirit really should plant something; then it would truly resemble the castle of the Beast Prince in Beauty and the Beast."
Alex Moyan continued to wander, in no hurry to find the Cursed Spirit.
Since the Zenin Family wanted to stall for time, he would play along with them.
Alex Moyan had sensed something abnormal the moment he entered the Innate Domain.
Alex Moyan kept walking, intending to go around the building in front to see what else was in the back.
A mass of dim fog floated from behind, and the sound of 'thud, thud, thud' like hooves could be heard, as if something was about to arrive.
The next second, a giant creature whose height rivaled the manor building,
with the face of an exquisite woman, a body half-human and half-horse, and double wings growing from its back.
A monster whose horse body was covered in thick black-and-white fur and whose tail was a white snake slowly walked from behind the manor, appearing within Alex Moyan's sight.
Alex Moyan and this bizarre Cursed Spirit locked eyes.
Pupils resembling vibrant amber met with eyes ashen and lifeless, pure white.
"Interesting."
Looking at the Exquisite Cursed Spirit, this was the first time Alex Moyan had seen such a Cursed Spirit.
It was clearly extremely strange and incredibly bizarre.
Yet, it possessed a seductive beauty.
The mismatched, strange features, when combined, created a Picasso-esque, distorted beauty.
The Exquisite Cursed Spirit stood silently, like a giant statue.
Alex Moyan stood with his arms crossed, quietly gazing at the Exquisite Cursed Spirit.
"Why do I feel a strange sense of familiarity?"
Alex Moyan stroked his chin. The more he looked at this Cursed Spirit, the weirder it seemed, yet it felt like he had seen it somewhere before.
While Alex Moyan was still thinking, the Exquisite Cursed Spirit had already assumed a fighting stance.
Its pale arms resembled fleshless white bones, from which several skeletal structures extended, transforming into a bow and arrow that looked like a work of art.
The Exquisite Cursed Spirit slightly leaned its massive body backward, drawing the bow, and several sharp bone spurs materialized on its arms.
The bone spurs were sharp, resembling jade, emitting a dazzling white light and a cold gleam, yet they also seemed as hard and heavy as fine iron.
The aura they emitted suggested they could pierce anything, easily penetrating even the earth.
Whoosh———
The bone spurs instantly pierced the air, slicing through space, stirring up a fierce wind like blade energy, emitting piercing, deafening shrieks. Their might was already tearing the earth apart!
In just an instant, several bone spurs arrived before Alex Moyan.
But Alex Moyan showed no intention of dodging.
A vast, sea-like surge of Cursed Energy erupted from Alex Moyan's body.
The imposing aura it emitted instantly blew away the mist enveloping the entire manor.
The bone spurs passed by, leaving Alex Moyan completely unharmed.
Alex Moyan caught one of the bone spurs steadily with one hand.
"It's been a long time since I met a Cursed Spirit that satisfies me this much."
"It's good; it's been a long time since I fought. Let me test your strength."
Alex Moyan crushed the bone spur, which was harder than steel, into dust, and shouted softly:
"Martial God Possession, activate."
