And outside the ancestral hall, there was the figure of the pink-haired girl who faced thousands of soldiers alone and cleared a path for her to survive...
The sacrifices... have been too many!
Mother, Azusa's companions, countless loyal guards, Konoha ninjas...
And there are Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura who are fighting bloody battles for her right now!
Their dedication, their trust, their sacrifices...
Must everything vanish just because of a cruel truth?!
An unprecedented, unwavering will that transcended fear and confusion.
Like a raging flame, it suddenly ignited in Shion's purple eyes!
Who cares about the truth!
Forget about fate!
To protect those who believe in her and safeguard her!
So that their sacrifices will not be in vain!
She must complete this final step!
"You demon! No matter what you say! Today, I will seal you away once more!"
Ziyuan's voice carried an unprecedented resolve and power!
She forced herself to calm down, and the interrupted hand seals were once again connected!
The pure power belonging to the priestess within her body erupted recklessly!
"Sealing Barrier - Seal!!!"
The enormous purple barrier, which had been dimmed and fluctuating due to wavering in his mind, burst forth with unprecedented brilliance under the resolute will of Ziyuan!
Countless runes flowed like living things, and the divine purifying power, like a tangible tide, pressed down fiercely on the mountain of flesh of the demon!
The light instantly illuminated the entire bottom of the deep pit!
"Heh heh... Hahaha! Too late! Foolish witch! You've finally... taken the bait!"
However, the demon's maniacal laughter was even more piercing and triumphant!
Just as the purple barrier reached its zenith and was about to touch the Mountain of Flesh—
"Yellow Springs" leans against the shadow of the mountain of flesh, its withered body already drained dry.
Like a discarded tattered sack, it suddenly slumped backward and collapsed, completely losing its last shred of life! And at the same time!
"call out--!"
A thick, impenetrable, pure black mist, churning with endless resentment and evil.
Like a living, poisonous dragon, it suddenly shot into the sky from the spot where "Yellow Springs" had fallen!
The mist exuded an evil aura that was purer and more chilling to the soul than the mountain of flesh itself.
It is the true soul of the demon that has been released!
The black mist ignored the seemingly solid purple barrier.
The light, as if it had no physical form, pierced through the barrier in an instant!
Instead of attacking the barrier itself, it swiftly pounced on Shion, who was doing her best to maintain it!
"what?!"
Shion was completely unprepared for this turn of events!
All her power was used to maintain and activate the sealing barrier, leaving her completely powerless to defend or dodge!
"Hahaha! Witch! You seem to have forgotten!"
When the sealing barrier expanded to its strongest state, resonating most deeply with my body…
"This is also the moment when the barrier binds the soul's power... at its weakest! Your soul... is mine!"
The spirit of the demon emitted a piercing shriek, filled with endless greed and madness, instantly engulfing the unsuspecting Shion!
"Shiyuan—!!!"
Naruto and Sasuke's exclamations rang out simultaneously, filled with extreme shock and anger!
"Oh no! You two, get out of here—!!!"
Enveloped in thick black fog, Shion only had time to let out one last, shrill, and desperate cry!
She could sense an extremely cold and evil will.
Like millions of steel needles, they pierced her soul in an instant, frantically eroding and devouring her consciousness!
Roar! ...
A terrifying roar, seemingly emanating from the deepest abyss, capable of tearing apart the soul.
It suddenly burst forth from inside that writhing mountain of flesh!
The entire ancestral hall, no, the entire mountain, shook violently in the roar!
The rocks surrounding the pit crumbled and collapsed like fragile biscuits!
The black mist enveloping the violet, like a giant python returning to its nest, suddenly retreated back into the mountain of flesh!
Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!
That enormous mountain of flesh, made up of writhing chunks of meat, seemed to have been infused with unparalleled, violent vitality.
It began an unprecedented and violent expansion and wriggling!
Countless thick, dark red veins throbbed wildly like a engorged, blood-filled python!
The viscous black liquid gushed out like a waterfall!
Those long-broken rock chains that bound it.
Amidst the groans of unbearable strain, it was forcibly snapped and torn apart!
The few remaining dim runes on the wall flickered a few times like candles in the wind before going out and shattering completely!
A terrifying pressure, indescribable in words, seemed to drag the entire world into eternal darkness.
Like a world-ending tide, it erupted with a roar centered on the mountain of flesh!
The air was compressed, producing a piercing popping sound! The space itself seemed to be distorting and wailing!
At the bottom of the deep pit, the enormous mountain of flesh was undergoing a dramatic transformation!
Countless chunks of meat were writhing, rearranging, and rising wildly!
A colossal, indescribable, terrifying silhouette, almost bursting through the dome of the ancestral hall, is rapidly taking shape!
It has a humanoid torso, but is covered with twisted bone spurs and wriggling tentacles.
Its head has no facial features, only a huge, constantly rotating dark vortex that seems to devour all light!
At the center of the vortex, one could vaguely see a fleeting glimpse of Shion's terrified and desperate purple eyes!
A mixture of the pure power of the Shion priestess, the ultimate evil of the demon's soul, and the overwhelming resentment accumulated over countless years...
An aura of ultimate chaos swept through the entire space like a tsunami!
Sasuke stared at the terrifying being that was taking shape, radiating an aura of world destruction.
The Sharingan's eyes were filled with an unprecedented solemnity and a hint of... helplessness.
He recognized the purple eyes that flashed briefly at the center of the vortex.
The aster... has been completely devoured, becoming the sacrifice and core of this monster's resurrection!
"Aster!!!"
Naruto's eyes widened in horror, and his golden hair stood on end!
Watching the final image of Shion disappearing into that dark vortex.
An indescribable flame, a mixture of overwhelming rage, endless grief, and violent power, exploded within him in an instant!
"You bastard—give me back Shion—!!!"
Naruto let out a shrill roar like a wounded beast.
He transformed into a shooting star burning with golden flames, charging recklessly toward the terrifying monster that was completing its final form!
Tactics and composure were completely forgotten!
All he wanted was to pull that girl out of that damn monster's belly!
Sasuke's eyes narrowed; he knew it was impossible to stop Naruto at this moment.
He took a deep breath and rushed forward after Naruto. He couldn't let this idiot do whatever he wanted!
The ultimate battle erupted the moment the demons were resurrected, in the most brutal and violent way!
The sacrifice was none other than the priestess who had just mustered the courage to try and change her fate—Shion!
Chapter 239 Shion Falls into Despair
The fully formed Wraith is like a colossal beast that crawls out of an ancient abyss, ready to destroy the world.
Perched in the deep pit, its enormous body almost filled the space at the bottom of the ancestral hall.
The dark vortex located in the head area spun wildly.
It exudes an aura of despair that devours all light, within which a fleeting glimpse of Shion's desperate purple hue can be faintly seen.
"Roar--!!!"
The deafening roar carried a tangible shockwave.
The entire ancestral hall trembled violently, and pebbles rained down!
Accompanied by this roar announcing its resurrection, the enormous body of the demon...
Countless thick tentacles made of writhing flesh and dark red tendons suddenly shot out!
