Chapter 438: Teach him to love
Chapter 438: What taught him to love was...
“Lu Li!!!”
Sukuna's angry voice came from behind. It was the first time he showed his anger so directly.
Li Mei didn't even realize what was happening until she died, and Lu Li pulled out her head. The expression of Luosuo next to her was even more interesting.
"Immortality... Immortal Technique... So you've been playing tricks on us all along..."
Zuosuo could not accept this result. He should have thought of it earlier, but he subconsciously thought of the situation in a direction that was favorable to his side.
Lu Li had clearly demonstrated the ability of Shadow Clone in front of him, so why didn't he think that this guy might also be able to use the transformation technique?
It’s no wonder that he couldn’t guess it, the main reason is... Lu Suo couldn’t think of any benefit that doing this would bring to Lu Li!
Lu Li was stronger than them. If he wanted to kill them, he could just kill them directly. Why did he go through so much trouble and teach him Impure World Reincarnation? Why did he make such a big scene?
The angry Sukuna directly attacked the original Great Snake Master with the Space Slash.
The Great Snake Master did not dodge, but just showed a mocking smile to Sukuna, and then exploded into a ball of smoke in the space slash.
"Why on earth did you do this!?"
At this time, Xusuo couldn't help but shout and question Lu Li. He knew that he might have been completely defeated today, but he didn't want to die without understanding Lu Li's motives.
Sukuna was reborn through the Impure World Reincarnation with Tengen as a sacrifice, and his strength was indeed extremely strong, but Kosuo felt that since Lu Li had directed this, it was impossible for him to be defeated by Sukuna.
Besides, the brief confrontation just now has already explained everything. Sukuna was knocked to the ground by Lu Li when he was at his peak condition, which shows that Lu Li is still at ease.
"what?"
Lu Li smiled when he was asked, "Didn't I say that from the beginning?"
He came to the rope in an instant, grinning and showing a mouthful of white teeth, "...This is very pleasant."
It was clearly only the beginning of autumn, and the summer heat had not yet subsided, but Luosuo felt cold all over and trembled with anger, "You weirdo..."
The roar of the noose came to an abrupt end, and the blade of the demon-imprisoning blade fell from above, splitting it in half between the eyebrows, and directly wiping out the brains inside.
"I've had enough fun. You're useless."
Lu Li said with a smile, swinging his sword and splashing blood, creating an elegant arc on the ground.
Just when he stopped acting, his fun score and fashion score had both exceeded 9600.
Lu Li thought that since he was going to do it, he had to do it perfectly. He might as well try to see if he could achieve victory in both fields at the same time. Anyway, the progress in Hongmeng Space could never catch up with his own.
"Land from……"
Sukuna is worthy of being the strongest curse king a thousand years ago, with a calm and cold temperament.
He was indeed shaken for a moment by Li Mei's death, and was also furious at Lu Li for playing tricks on them, and he lost his composure just now.
But he quickly adjusted himself and focused his mindset on combat.
Regardless of Lu Li's original intention and purpose, now both he and Sukuna have obtained the strongest body and endless cursed power.
Although it was a bit ironic, he still had to say that in this state, it was still possible to be a sorcerer.
After all, his innate skills can be used unlimitedly. In the state of Impure World Reincarnation, the skill fuse is not a problem and can be reset at any time.
The infinite cursed power means that he can use powerful moves such as Space Slash at will, and he doesn't have to worry about expanding his domain.
Lu Li's extreme speed was indeed very troublesome for him. He could feel that Lu Li's physical strength was extremely high and his footwork was very mysterious, so he couldn't compete with Lu Li in the field of extreme speed.
After the expansion period, Sukuna analyzed calmly and rationally. If this was a game, he felt that Lu Li might be a little stronger than him overall.
But a slight difference in numerical values is not enough to decide the outcome of a battle. Sukuna firmly believes that he has a strong talent in the field of tactics and can defeat the strong with the weak.
In his opinion, Lu Li's biggest weakness is his extreme arrogance and a more casual and joyful attitude than his own. Sukuna feels that he still has a chance to defeat such a person.
"Why, you're not going to take action to avenge your little follower?"
Lu Li asked with a smile. He had no psychological burden in playing with these cursed spirits who were originally curse masters. As the saying goes, all evil must be eradicated. If he could make him happy a little before killing him, that would be great.
He is not the kind of person who likes to insult his opponent, but the prerequisite is that he really regards the other party as an opponent.
He didn't feel that he needed to respect people like Nozomi, they were just clowns.
"I don't like to do things beyond my ability. My principle is to eat when I want to eat, kill when I want to kill, and have fun when I come across something interesting."
Sukuna said, "But, right now, I really want to defeat you."
As he spoke, he moved his feet, and his speed was much faster than before. He moved to the upper left of Lu Li, drew the bow in his hand, and shot out the flaming arrow.
Lu Li used the Demon Prisoner Slash to block the flaming arrow, and his tone revealed a bit of interest, "Oh? You actually learned the instant step?"
"You shouldn't have given me the chance."
Sukuna said calmly, forcing himself to be calm, "You have demonstrated this in front of me too many times."
Lu Li was not very surprised. He had already taught Hu Zi the skills of the Death God series, the Complete Book of Ghost Way, and also taught him Flash Step.
However, Torako had a poor understanding of instant movement and could not use it well, but Sukuna was enlightened.
"So, do you think you can fight me like this?"
Lu Li asked with a smile.
Sukuna disappeared as Lu Li finished speaking and appeared behind him, "Isn't it?"
Just as he was about to raise his hand, Sukuna discovered that Lu Li in front of him had also disappeared. A voice came from behind him, "Are you faster than before? Maybe the difference is too small, so I didn't notice it."
Sukuna felt his scalp tingling and he quickly moved forward using instant step, trying to create some distance.
What happened? According to what Lu Li taught Tiger Staff, and what he saw and understood with his own eyes, he felt that his instant step just now was not slower than Lu Li's previous one.
But how come Lu Li was still able to suppress him, as if he hadn't learned Flash Step?
"Numerical values are amazing."
However, Lu Li was saying something that Sukuna couldn't understand, "Even if it's similar, because of the control over the power, the actual power exerted is also very different."
Theoretically speaking, his comprehensive attributes are only slightly higher than the current Sukuna. Although he has broken the barrier, it cannot be said to be absolute suppression. The barrier itself is just a watershed and a division of potential value.
Just like how his Bankai was able to defeat Unohana Sensei, whose attributes were over 100, the upper limit of offensive power is determined by strength and mechanism, and with or without excellent footwork, the speed may differ several times under the same numerical conditions.
If an ordinary person who knows nothing suddenly has 100 comprehensive attributes, he may only be able to break the sound barrier even if he runs at full speed.
But people who have good control over their bodies, coupled with high-end footwork skills, can even break the sound barrier in the ordinary world when they have 50 attributes.
It was true that Sukuna had learned the Shunpo, but it was too crude in Lu Li's opinion. It was completely different from the Shunpo he had practiced for a long time.
For example, it's like the difference between an excellent student who has learned Shunpo at the Shinō Academy and Shunshin Yoruichi. "Come on, attack with all your might."
Lu Li hooked his finger at Sukuna, "The so-called strongest...challenger."
Even Sukuna himself was surprised that despite such comments and provocations, he did not feel angry at all.
Although he felt sorry for Li Mei, he did not feel sad for her death at all, nor did he have any desire to avenge Li Mei.
Ah...what is this feeling?
Sukuna felt that the blood in his body was burning, but his mind was exceptionally clear, the sky was bright and the earth was clear, and he felt extremely comfortable.
Among the four eyes, there was only one person who he wanted to challenge and defeat at all costs.
This feeling was something he had never felt in his thousands of years of life.
He suddenly remembered that afternoon a thousand years ago when a woman approached him with burning love and said she wanted to teach him what love was.
He thought he knew what true love was, so he killed the woman without hesitation.
But now he found that he didn't understand, just like he couldn't understand the joy in his heart at this moment.
It is clear that he is being absolutely suppressed and is in a disadvantageous situation.
But why, why is his blood boiling?
"Field expansion - Demon Subduing and Cook Control!"
Sukuna's voice was high-pitched and passionate, with a fanatical expression on his face that he himself was not aware of. For the first time in a thousand years, he climbed the peak called the strongest as a challenger.
He formed seals with his hands and began to continuously release space slashes towards Lu Li. The invisible blades in the field fell towards Lu Li like a rain curtain.
"open!"
Sukuna's hands were burning with flames, he drew his bow and arrow, and launched a long-range fire suppression.
Focus on reaching the top!
Lu Li, witness it, witness my ascent, witness my strength!
boom--
In the endless offensive, the rain of blades dissipated outwards and the flaming arrows shattered into nothingness.
Lu Li just stood there, and before he could strike out with the Demon Prisoner in his hand, the many strange visions caused by Sukuna's attack had already dissipated.
The profound martial arts realm extended, and the sharp sword intent confronted the slashing attack from the Demon Subduing and Chef Controlling realm, extinguishing the flames.
The moment he took a step, Lu Li slashed out with the Demon Prisoner in his hand, and the stars were visible in the daytime, while the scorching sun lost its light!
The silent knife tore through the space and the atmosphere, causing Sukuna's excitement to stagnate.
In a trance, he saw the scenes from a thousand years ago again, the joy he had experienced in his life, and the rare warmth.
It's a revolving lantern!
Lu Li just slashed with his sword seriously, and he saw the revolving lantern! ?
Sukuna forced himself to regain his consciousness and discovered that his body had been cut in half, along with the pain in his soul, making it difficult for him to repair his reincarnated body.
This forced him to use the reversal technique and his own understanding of the soul to barely hold his body together.
“The strongest…”
Sukuna sighed, his fighting spirit rising again.
It seemed that winning or losing no longer mattered to him; he simply wanted to fight the battle to his heart's content.
His four hands were frantically making seals and his two mouths were constantly chanting spells.
He seemed to be a master of curses, ghost arts, and ninjutsu, unleashing them without limit. He wanted to use all he had learned in his life to defeat the ultimate enemy before him.
The ancient warriors who were watching the battle at this time were all silent. Those powerful warriors from the Eastern High School who arrived late were even more solemn as they watched the battle from a distance with the help of spells.
Anyone could see that Sukuna was the challenger. Even though he was already as strong as a sorcerer could get, stronger than anyone else in the world, he could not shake the man in front of him in the slightest.
For a time, the ancient sorcerers were in mixed and depressed emotions, and the people at Tokyo High School were also somewhat regretful. They had never expected that the most powerful Curse King in history would end in this way.
But perhaps for a strong man who has lived for thousands of years, what he is really waiting for is not the boring killing of humans, but waiting for someone stronger than him to defeat him?
That would alleviate this overwhelming loneliness.
boom--
Lightning from the Thunder Realm streaked across the sky, and Lu Li expanded his realm again, forcing Sukuna's Demon Subduing Chef's realm to shrink.
At the same time, he slashed with his sword, just like Pangu creating the world, and cut Sukuna diagonally in half, and his remaining body slowly fell from the air.
Lu Li stood in the void, surrounded by powerful thunder, just like the Thunder God Shura.
As Sukuna was falling, he looked at Lu Li in the sky and noticed the boredom in Lu Li's eyes. He actually felt a little regretful and guilty in his heart.
"Is this the strongest peak of the modern era..."
He sighed as he fell to the ground.
"The peak..."
Lu Li looked down at Sukuna, "Although you can't feel everything, I'll let you take a look."
Lu Li's words attracted the attention of all the powerful people watching the battle nearby.
The ancient sorcerers looked at each other in bewilderment, thinking, "You are so outrageous, how can you still not be the strongest fighting force?"
Students from East Technical College like Hu Zi had already guessed it vaguely. They remembered that when Lu Li first fought with Gojo Sensei, he said that his Bankai was not easy to use in a sparring match.
This shows that Mr. Lu knows Bankai!
"Solution—"
Lu Li spoke in a low voice, and straightened the demon in his hand, "The demon is coming."
boom--
Endless purple-black devilish fog surged out, submerging the mountains like a world-destroying tsunami. The man standing at the end of the devilish aura looked as majestic and terrifying as a demon from a myth.
In the state of demon presence, Lu Li's comprehensive attributes finally reached the extreme peak, reaching 106 points.
The intuitive numerical suppression was amplified, and under the rain curtain of domineering color and spiritual pressure, even Sukuna felt difficulty breathing.
Lu Li stood in the air with no intention of moving downwards. He just slashed downwards with his sword, and the invisible blade extended out.
The sword is powerful and can break anything!
The martial saint's swordsmanship—determines life and death!
The pitch-black blade light, accompanied by the devil's intent, cut down the so-called strongest person and brought him down to earth. The mountain range was completely split in half by this blade, becoming a canyon stretching for several kilometers.
And Sukuna, who was in the center of the sword, had his soul split in two.
