Chapter 170 The Demon's Frown
What Aatrox's Orchid could sense, Akali's senses were naturally even more pronounced.
At this moment, Akali felt that all around her was pitch black and silent, and she could not even feel the movement of the wind or the presence of living things.
At the same time, her chakra, mental perception, and all other means of perception vanished without a trace once they left her body, as if she had fallen into a void.
Akali raised an eyebrow at the sight of the demon.
"The second generation's dark magic? And a version that goes even further, blocking even sound and perception, okay, Kaname Tosen, right?"
"Knowing they can't hit me, they chose to block my vision and senses. Hmm, that was indeed a good move."
"pity!"
Controlling Aatrox, Akali effortlessly dodged an Amaterasu Fireball, then raised her greatsword to block a spear thrust from a demon. She then turned and delivered a powerful Dragon Tail Kick, striking Susanoo's sword-wielding wrist from behind, sending the sword flying and pointing it at Takemikazuchi, forcing him to sheathe his longbow.
The fluid movements and precise predictions made it seem as if Akali was completely unaffected by Tsukuyomi's sensory blockade!
"Impossible!" Wangliang exclaimed in disbelief.
Tsukuyomi's power should be absolute, so why is the other party completely unaffected?
"Are you surprised?"
Akali spoke calmly, her enormous Darkin eyes flashing with a mocking red light: "There's nothing surprising about it. They're just a bunch of trash wiped out by the Yuhi Otsutsuki."
"If your trash were really that strong, why would it be here today?"
"Can you hear me?" Upon hearing Akali's words, the demon was shocked.
“Of course I can’t hear you!” Akali replied. “You’re just too easy to guess, Wraith!”
"You're acting like a three-year-old!"
"No, you should say that even a three-year-old wouldn't understand as easily as you do!"
After learning from Orchid what the Wraith was made of, Akali completed the character model for the Wraith.
After all, the concept of a vengeful ghost like a demon was simply too classic in the world before she transmigrated!
As expected, after Akali's words, Wraith completely broke down!
[Ding! Emotional value from the demon increased!]
"You wretched brat! I'll kill you!"
The roaring demon thrust its spear toward Aatrox's strong chest.
Other divine terracotta warriors, along with the demons, unleashed a barrage of attacks: the longsword that slew Orochi, the thunderous arrows, and the undying black flames of Amaterasu.
Sensing these things through the power of shadow, Aatrox's red eyes shone like searchlights, casting two beams of red light into the pitch-black Tsukuyomi barrier.
"Now!" Akali frantically drained her own chakra, sending all of it into Aatrox's body, and then releasing it from Aatrox's body!
She's about to do something crazy.
That is, to use Aatrox's body to enter the veil of twilight and unleash the Cherry Blossom Kill!
Under normal circumstances, Akali would never even consider sinking a body of Aatrox's caliber into the shadows, because that would be suicide.
Even Aatrox's Shadow Strike is only a brief dash; it's a displacement, not a blink.
However, under the suppression of the dark energy released by Tsukuyomi, the membrane between matter and shadow is extremely fragile. Moreover, the darkness released by Tsukuyomi is very similar in nature to Akali's shadow power, which is why she is able to maintain her senses inside.
Tsukuyomi's dark suppression can suppress many opposing positive energies, but it cannot suppress forces that are close to the same origin.
So, just as the Wraith and its divine terracotta warriors were about to strike Aatrox's body...
"brush--"
The giant Aatrox suddenly vanished!
Before the demon could react, the Darkin Greatsword, which was being used as a ninja scythe, pierced Takemikazuchi's back!
"Splash splash splash—"
A massive amount of broken clay collapsed densely from the tip of the sword that pierced Takemikazuchi's chest!
Besides the clay on Takemikazuchi's chest, there were also drops of blood, crackling with lightning, dripping from the tip of Aatrox's sword!
"Huh? These terracotta warriors are alive?"
"So that's how it is. It uses the corpses of those Takamagahara gods as a base, and then covers them with clay to control their movements? What EVA!"
Akali complained.
Then, she would draw her sword and continue dealing with the demons and others.
As for why we didn't deal with the demons first, but instead killed Takemikazuchi's terracotta warriors first.
In team fights, shouldn't you prioritize killing the AD carry? Isn't that common sense?
However, Akali's longsword failed to budge when she tried to draw it!
The flesh inside the Takemikazuchi terracotta warrior clamped down on the Darkin Greatsword like a hydraulic press!
"Huh?" Akali was shocked. She didn't expect that these terracotta warriors, which were clearly dead corpses being driven to move, would still have such a fighting spirit as if they were living people!
Akali was about to unleash her Darkin sword energy to forcefully sever Takemikazuchi's body.
But a muffled murmur suddenly emanating from the Darkin Greatsword stopped Akali's movements: "God, kill, absorb!"
"Absorb?" Strands of pure lightning energy and life force flowed into Akali's body from the hilt of the Darkin Greatsword.
Akali then realized that it wasn't Takemikazuchi who had clamped down on the Darkin Blade, but rather the Darkin Blade that had bitten Takemikazuchi.
"Yes, so this is also a god. Okay, you are a god, that's fine!"
Akali released her control over the Darkin Blade.
The Darkin Greatsword, which had been thirsty for countless millennia, was unleashed and, like an insatiable abyss maw, sucked up Takemikazuchi's flesh and blood.
Takemikazuchi hadn't cried out when the giant sword pierced his chest, but now he let out a shrill, unpleasant screech like a squashed duck!
Listen to the shrill scream of Takemikazuchi.
[Ding! Emotional value from the demon increased!]
"Impossible! You're absorbing Takemikazuchi? How could that be?"
The demon, a manifestation of divine resentment, stared in disbelief at the scene.
On the one hand, it is incomprehensible why a corpse can still scream.
On the other hand, it still couldn't understand how Akali could absorb the power of these corpses, which it, as a newborn born from the resentment of the gods, could not absorb it for its own use and could only be forcibly driven by turning them into terracotta warriors!
But what if Akali could devour and absorb these god corpses?
"Dong dong!"
The demon's heart pounded twice.
Silently, the giant terracotta warriors began to move backward, gradually protecting Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and other terracotta warriors in front of them!
