In the pitch-black battlefield of the Ghost Domain, Nine-Tails Naruto and Senju Hashirama, standing atop the Adamantine Wood Dragon, were positioned on opposite sides, both radiating dazzling golden light.
Between the two, Uchiha Madara, Izuna, Itachi, Sasuke, and Obito, five Susanoo of various colors, towered like mountain peaks. Under the combined might of seven auras, a vast and powerful presence swept out in all directions.
Above the sky, a colossal sun hovered, continuously emitting light and heat. This sun, catalyzed by Uchiha Yūshi's right eye, possessed a natural restraint against evil, causing the surrounding ghostly aura to dissipate. Many lesser demons below rank A even melted like ice under the sunlight, perishing with screams.
"Leave everything from now on to us, the Dawnbreakers. Uncle Jin and Uncle Zhong, you can rest well!" Yūshi walked towards the slightly transparent Yang Li Bell, which had grown larger, and spoke with a smile. His gaze swept over the numerous extraordinary individuals behind the two. Seeing their faces filled with excitement and admiration as they looked at him, he returned a benevolent smile.
Without waiting for their reply, Yūshi brought his fingers to his lips, a thought crossing his mind. Instantly, a clone identical to him appeared beside him. With fingers spread wide, it pressed against the slightly warm surface of the Yang Li Bell and uttered, "Flying Thunder God Technique!"
"Wait, I can still..." Jin Da Shu opened his mouth to stop him, but before he could finish, he and everyone within the Yang Li Bell vanished from their positions.
"Damn brat!" The leading Ghost General, watching the flesh and blood he was about to feast on disappear so abruptly, saw his ghostly face turn utterly grim.
"The space within the Ghost Domain has long been sealed. By all rights, remote teleportation shouldn't be possible. Could it be..." The leading Ghost General looked at the Void Piercer on Yūshi's chest. The ghostly flames in its hollow eye sockets flickered uncertainly before igniting completely, even burning out of its sockets.
This signified its extreme rage.
"How many times can you use such a space-rending technique? Die!" the leading Ghost General roared. Empowered by the entire Ghost Domain, its strength had reached the peak below the level of laws. With a wave of its hand, dense ghostly faces surged upwards like a torrent, transforming into a ghost dragon whose entire body emitted screams. It lunged with bared fangs and claws towards the blazing sun in the sky.
Extreme coldness, extreme filth – these were the characteristics of the Ghost Domain. Under the enhancement of these traits, the Ghost Generals could gain significant power boosts, while correspondingly weakening their enemies terribly. With this push and pull, as long as the enemy hadn't reached the level of laws, even the strongest would meet a bitter end.
However, the blazing sun condensed by Yūshi dispelled this coldness and filth. Furthermore, its light could buff his allies. Therefore, for the leading Ghost General to resolve Yūshi as quickly as possible, it had to deal with that sun first.
"Ahhh~"
The ghost dragon, formed from countless ghostly faces, felt the terrifying light and heat the closer it got to the blazing sun. Soon, hundreds of thousands of ghostly faces forming the dragon's head dissipated completely under the sun's glare. However, it succeeded in polluting the sun, causing wisps of black mist to appear on the surface of the originally blindingly white sun.
As more ghostly faces continued to pollute it, the sun's light grew dimmer. The Ghost Domain, which had been illuminated to a stark white, began to soften its light. Just as the sun was about to be completely corrupted...
"Explode!"
Yūshi raised his right hand, making a grabbing gesture towards the sun in the sky, and let out a sharp cry. The pupil of his right eye dilated and contracted. Instantly, the entire sun began to collapse, shrinking from the size of a house to the size of a fist before exploding completely.
Boom!
Under the terrifying explosion, the void continuously shattered and reformed. The one, two, three, and four-dimensional voids were blown to smithereens, releasing different levels of energy that completely annihilated the giant dragon composed of ghostly faces.
This was merely the beginning. In the aftermath of the explosion, nearly a thousand lesser demons were blasted into nothingness. Even some demons of the thirtieth tier or higher had their soul fires in their eye sockets flicker erratically upon being hit by the explosion's light, nearly perishing.
Behind Yūshi, everyone except Uchiha Madara and Hashirama couldn't help but open their mouths slightly.
"Is this the proxy lord's strength? What a terrifying explosion, Deidara himself would be impressed!" Uchiha Obito narrowed his eyes, feeling the residual power of the explosion transmitted through his Susanoo, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"This is... the power of his eyes!" Uchiha Sasuke looked at Yūshi's back, his heart filled with complex emotions. He suddenly felt that his Kagutsuchi and Amaterasu weren't as appealing anymore.
Uchiha Itachi: "..."
"Damn human, how dare you!" The leading Ghost General, seeing that the sun could actually explode, and that the explosion had nearly ripped through the Ghost Domain, with a third of its low-ranking ghost subordinates vanishing, clenched its fists.
Fortunately, that unsightly sun had finally disappeared.
A hateful expression appeared on the leading Ghost General's face. With the sun gone, the might of the Ghost Domain once again descended upon the troublesome humans before it. Under the influence of this might, it could feel the aura on the enemies' bodies clearly drop by 10%, and the human enveloped in the purple energy phantom had its aura drop by about 20%.
Now was the best opportunity to strike.
"Form a crescent formation, with the ranged Netherfire legions standing behind the Nether Shield legions, and annihilate them all!"
The leading Ghost General let out a fierce roar. Instantly, dark clouds rolled across the sky as over a thousand ghost generals began to move. Then, shields formed from Nether energy created black walls. After the black light flowed, they merged into one. Behind the shield wall, countless masses of black flames, as if possessing life, flew towards the Dawnbreakers.
Simultaneously, all ghost generals above the thirtieth tier moved freely. Many directly burrowed into the void of the Ghost Domain, their whereabouts unpredictable, ready to strike at any moment.
"Everyone, hold on, watch my play!"
Faced with this situation, Yūshi actually smiled. He first restrained the restless individuals behind him, then brought his fingers to his chest, and ten shadow clones lined up on his left and right sides.
Yūshi's gaze was condescending as he roared at the ghosts, "A bunch of experience points, how dare you yap before me? Behold, the Great Sun Cleaves the Heavens!"
With a soft shout, Yūshi and his ten clones simultaneously activated their right eye abilities, generating eleven suns the size of houses in the sky. Blazing light radiated outwards, instantly dispelling all darkness.
"How is this possible!" The leading Ghost General let out a cry, its entire ghostly being practically collapsing on the spot.
The moment the eleven suns appeared, the auras of Uchiha Madara and others, which had been suppressed and weakened by the Ghost Domain, began to rise again. Correspondingly, the strength of numerous lesser demons plummeted, and even the leading Ghost General was affected.
However, Yūshi's maneuvers were not yet finished. After condensing the Great Suns, the ten clones dissipated. Yūshi utilized the vast amount of Sage and spiritual energy stored in the Pure Land space to instantly replenish his chakra reserves, then his eyes blazed with red light.
In an instant, countless streams of pure energy intertwined and appeared around him, quickly forming a phantom image of a Heavenly Emperor clad in armor, towering beneath the eleven blazing suns, exuding extreme dominance.
"I have a sword, named the Tai Chi Heavenly Emperor Soul-Slaying Sword. Sword, come!"
A hazy vortex formed before his eyes, and then a golden long sword flew out from the vortex, grasped by his Heavenly Emperor manifestation.
"Impossible, how can this sword be in your hands!" The leading Ghost General stared at Yūshi with terrified eyes. When it discovered another ancient-looking mirror flying out of the vortex before Yūshi, it nearly had its ghostly flames burst from its eye sockets.
"The Samsara Creation Mirror! I #￥#￥@!"
