The mountain of tentacles that rapidly coalesced blocked their path.
"What's the matter?"
"It should have been completely destroyed by me."
Instinctively, Moroha took a step back, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity with the scene before her.
She was quite certain that her strike would obliterate the opponent.
But what's going on now?
(Moroha did indeed kill it the first time.)
(However, the second strike failed to completely eliminate the opponent; it could only be described as severely injuring them.)
(The demonic energy was much larger than before, and the regeneration ability was much faster.)
Kikyo drew her bow warily, pondering the changes in the Shikon Jewel.
"hateful!!"
"Bang!"
"?"
Amber brandished her scythe, trying to cut off the attacking tentacles, only to find that the blade had been chipped open.
(This hardness!!?)
He stared in astonishment at the scene, his hands and feet bound, while a tentacle reached for the fragment on the back of his neck.
"amber!"
The arrow of purification struck, but it only penetrated a small part of the tentacle's surface; the powerful purifying force caused it greater damage.
"Oops!"
As soon as Zhu Ye turned around, he saw the fragment that had been taken out and immediately understood the other party's plan.
He immediately used his demonic power to sever the connecting tentacles with a sword, and then ran over.
Although the "hand" that was binding Kohaku was severed, the Shikon Jewel did not panic. Instead, new tentacles spread out from the broken part, grabbed the fragment in the air, and immediately brought it back into its body.
"Hmph, you did the right thing, Kikyo."
"How could that little bit of light possibly destroy me and Naraku?"
"But it's more than enough to protect this brat's life."
Upon realizing that the "light" stored within the fragments had been extracted, the Shikon Jewel said coldly.
The moment it removed the fragment, Kikyo did not let the light remain in the fragment; instead, it used that "light" to save Amber's life.
"asshole!"
Having freed Amber from its entanglement, Mochizuki glared at it with an unfriendly expression.
The swollen phantom of demonic power was about to strike again.
"Heh, go ahead and chop me if you want."
"But no matter how many times you continue, it's all in vain."
Without the previous fear and trepidation, the Shikon Jewel absorbed the newly acquired fragments again and spoke calmly.
"Boom!!"
A slash that pierced through the mountain range struck, splitting the hard body in two, only to instantly reform it.
(As expected, its physical strength has improved compared to before.)
(Has it evolved strong defense and regeneration abilities specifically to counter Moroha's slashes?)
Without any further changes in form, it remained the same tentacle mountain of flesh, but Kikyo noticed something was wrong with it.
Kikyo suspected something was amiss when her Sacred Arrows were initially used against the Shikon Jewel.
Now, seeing Amber's resistance and the damage caused by Moroha's slashes, I understand.
A youkai servant possessed by the Shikon Jewel.
It has a unique mechanism of change!
Otherwise, there is no reason to explain the even greater demonic power and the more robust physical body compared to the previous one.
The situation is quite bad.
Even if the Shikon Jewel does nothing, it can wear them down for no reason.
"Mom!!"
Holding onto Kohaku, Moroha returned to Kikyo's side, and began to get anxious as she watched the fleshy chains attacking from all directions.
"Calm down, Moroha."
Kikyo immediately erected a barrier on the spot and comforted her.
"Zizzi!!"
The tentacles, isolated from the outside, were completely unable to approach, but the Shikon Jewel remained calm.
Maintaining and blocking the barrier that currently stands against you is no easy task.
Even with Kikyo's exceptional spiritual power, she probably won't last long.
(Hopefully it's not too late)
Kikyo looked at Kohaku, who was only temporarily unconscious, and thought to herself.
Anticipating that a similar situation might occur, she made some preparations.
(No matter where you are, I will definitely come!)
Kikyo glanced at Moroha and made a choice she wouldn't have made before.
That is, choosing to let Inuyasha save him.
The Shikon Jewel before them was indeed beyond her and Moroha's ability to handle.
"Hmph, you've fallen on hard times, Kikyo. Even you have no choice but to ask Inuyasha for help?"
"But unfortunately, your shikigami will never be able to fly to Inuyasha's place."
"Naraku's clones are still keeping an eye on the surroundings for me. Your little tricks won't fool you."
But the Shikon Jewel saw through her thoughts and said coldly.
...............
"Bah!"
"Yay!"
"That's it."
Byakuya stood on the paper crane, looking at the shikigami he had cut down, and spoke.
"Whether it's Naraku or the Shikon Jewel..."
"The precautions against bellflower are too high."
"Seriously, just how afraid are those two of them of Kikyo?"
Bai Ye looked at the surging mountain of tentacled flesh not far away and spoke.
"However, this will also kill Kikyo. Inuyasha will definitely be furious if he finds out."
"I'll leave here."
After Bai Ye finished sighing, he was about to leave when a voice suddenly sounded behind him, making him widen his eyes and feel a chill run down his spine.
"Excuse me. Could you please let me know a little bit?"
"That one named Kikyo."
What is the relationship between the human priestess and my son?
A figure with a handsome face and a burly physique appeared before me, dressed in outer armor and a white kimono underneath, with three swords leaning against his back.
Just by looking at them, their domineering aura is overwhelming.
Upon hearing the other person's gentle voice, Bai Ye's lips twitched.
It seems he talked too much and caused trouble.
How did we end up encountering this giant Buddha statue here?
Chapter 93 Why are you here?!
"Uh"
Although the other party was very polite and spoke very courteously, Bai Ye felt a chill run down his spine.
To put it bluntly, in front of him, even the Shikon Jewel, Naraku, and those great demons would have to show him respect.
