Naruto: All I want to do after transforming into Akali is be happy!

Chapter 169 Divine Corpse

"do not want!"

"Can't!"

Despite her broken composure, Shion was still screaming.

But with a merciless flick on the head from Akali, Violet finally calmed down.

"Huh, I'm not dead?" Ziyuan asked blankly, covering her bright red forehead.

"What, so eager to die?" Akali teased. "That's a pity. The Darkin isn't a villain in traditional stories, otherwise I could still let you die with your tongue sticking out."

"Who, who wants to die like that!" Strangely enough, Shion actually understood Akali's words.

"Oh?" Akali looked at Shion with a mischievous smile, making Shion bury her head in her chest.

Then, as if forcibly changing the subject, Ziyuan said, "Let's not talk about this anymore."

She looked around at the crimson energy that enveloped her and Akali, and at the clear outside world that she could see through the energy.

The colossal Darkin god was wielding a giant sword, locked in fierce combat with the three divine terracotta warriors of the Wraith.

Seemingly far superior in numbers to the Wraiths's Divine Warriors, each swing of Aatrox's sword caused a Divine Warrior to retreat significantly.

Even with the addition of the demon himself, they had three divine warriors who should have been able to overpower Aatrox, but in the end, they took turns blocking his sword.

"So powerful!" Seeing such immense power, Ziyuan subconsciously exclaimed in amazement.

The fully-formed Wraith was already incredibly powerful, but the giant Akali summoned was able to overpower the opponent's Divine Warrior. Shion, who had previously lived in seclusion in a corner of the Land of Demons, had never seen such power before.

As she watched, Shion also showed a puzzled expression.

"Why is it that, despite appearing so filthy and evil from the outside, once you look inside, the filth, madness, and thirst disappear, replaced by a rather pure, even somewhat sacred, negative energy?"

"It's like...it's like the reversal of the legend of Izanami after she entered the underworld!"

Ziyuan's face was full of disbelief.

Akali looked at her in surprise: "You have a good eye, witch!"

"That's right, this is the corrupted body of a celestial warrior."

Akali explained, "Although we have fallen, the corruption of the Void is more concentrated in the warrior's spirit. There is actually nothing wrong with the body. We have now taken over that spiritual part."

"I see!"

Ziyuan suddenly realized, then frowned and pondered, "Speaking of which, fallen celestial warriors shouldn't be nameless in past myths, but why does this warrior's appearance not match any of the gods I know?"

“Guess!” Akali glanced sideways at Violet. She thought to herself, “If you could guess it, that would be a miracle.”

"I can't guess!" Shion shook her head dejectedly. She was supposed to be a priestess, yet she couldn't even recognize a fallen god.

Then the resource looked at Akali, wanting to ask her directly, but only then did she notice Akali's ambiguous smile.

Ziyuan snapped back to reality: "Is this something I shouldn't ask?"

Akali smiled slightly: "Want to continue guessing?"

"..."

Ziyuan shrank back and remained silent.

Neither Ziyuan nor Akali spoke, and for a moment, the only sound in the vast inner space was the booming of swords clashing outside.

For some reason, despite the noisy sounds coming from the outside, Shion felt strangely quiet inside, to the point that she felt suffocated.

As a result, Ziyuan became even more cautious.

Seeing that the priestess, who had been aloof since they met, had finally behaved herself, Akali finally spoke up: "To be honest, I still prefer your previous calm and mysterious priestess demeanor. Why don't you revert to that?"

[Ding, Violet's emotional value +9999]

"..." Ziyuan's face turned awkward.

"Hehe!" Akali shook her head: "Forget it, we're fighting now, so I won't chat with you. But you'll have to tell me the truth after we're done."

"..." Ziyuan nodded obediently, "I understand, Lady Akali!"

Having received a definite answer, Akali shifted her attention away from her body and back to what was in front of her.

At this moment, Wangliang, who was being dealt with perfunctorily by Akali and had no power to fight back, was already furious.

"Damn little bug, how dare you humiliate me like this!"

"Even if it means sleeping for ten thousand years, I will kill you right here today!"

"Come forth, Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi!"

As the demons cried out, the bright sky suddenly darkened.

Akali and Orchid only felt a blur before their eyes, and then two tall, all-black humanoid figures appeared in front of them!

However, not all black is the same.

Between the two shadowy figures, one was engulfed in jet-black flames, faceless and eyeless, like an unfinished clay sculpture.

The other is a pitch-black shadow, like the half of the moon that is not illuminated by the sun during its phases.

"Amaterasu! Tsukuyomi!"

A gasp came from the Violet within Aatrox's body.

"You scoundrel, how dare you desecrate the corpse of a great god!"

"Hmph, still acting like big shots here? They're nothing but a bunch of dead trash. Now that they're dead, they can be used to my advantage!"

After saying this, the clay spear in the demon's hand slammed heavily on the ground, and a dull echo reverberated through the earth.

The Amaterasu, composed of jet-black flames, responded immediately, spewing out a ball of black fire from its mouth.

Seeing the air distorted by the intense heat around the Amaterasu Black Flame, Akali dared not take it head-on. She immediately activated her barrier. Under the high damage of the Amaterasu Fireball, the orange-yellow barrier flashed by. However, the Amaterasu Fireball, which was blocked by the barrier for a moment, was completely destroyed after evaporating the barrier and began to burn the forest.

Upon seeing this, Akali inside Aatrox pressed Ctrl+5 to summon her wings, flapped them, and moved away from the ring of fire.

Meanwhile, Akali dodged Amaterasu's fireball attacks while asking Shion, "What do you mean by the Great God's corpse? Weren't these created by the Wraiths?"

"I don't know the specifics either, because that involves our origins. Compared to the demons who have lived from ancient times to the present, the priestesses have gone through too many iterations."

Shion shook her head: "All I know is that in ancient times there was a great war in which all the gods of Takamagahara were killed by one person. The corpses of the gods piled up, and their resentment formed the spirits. The remaining goodness of the gods formed the lineage of the priestesses."

"Strictly speaking, we witches are actually gravediggers!"

"One person, not two?" Akali seized on the key words in Violet's words.

"No, it's just one person. Legends can be distorted, but no matter how much they're distorted, the number will still increase, so I think it's definitely just one person!" Ziyuan confirmed.

"Is that so..." Akali's mind was instantly filled with many guesses.

If it's just one person, then in her mind, there's only one who fits the criteria.

It seems reasonable for the Otsutsuki, who devours planets, to kill the original deity before consuming them.

However, these ancient secrets are no longer the focus at this point.

Seeing Akali's agility, Tsukuyomi, who had been motionless, finally made her move.

As its shadow-formed body moved.

"Whoosh!"

An invisible ripple spread throughout the entire venue.

Aatrox's body felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and at the same time, all sounds in the outside world seemed to have been stopped, and all was silent!

At this moment, the loudest sound Shion could hear was her own heartbeat!
