Strengthening the Herrscher Authority: An Unstoppable Power of Erosion / Nurarihyon: The Power of Erosion Isn't a Crutch; You Have to Know How to Use It ...

"Then who was the person who just confronted Master Nura? Who can actually fight against the big monster?"

"I don't know, but it seems to be a monster too?"

"Being able to fight Master Nura, does it mean that... the other party is also a big monster?!"

"It looks like a fox demon."

"Why does it look like a rabbit demon to me?"

Hearing the trembling discussions among the monsters on the street, An Xiu and Meli looked at each other and showed no intention of staying. They also followed the direction Yae Kasumi and Nura Rihan left just now.

The current commotion here will soon attract the monsters of the Nura Clan to deal with it. Instead of staying here, it is better to follow up and see what the strength level of the big monsters in this era is.

As for the restaurant that collapsed, it was Nura Rihan who took action first. Regardless of An Xiu and theirs, Nura Clan should compensate the restaurant owner after learning about the situation, probably.

At this time, outside the town, relying on the familiarity of the nearby terrain, Nura Rihan came to an open mountainous area suitable for a battlefield.

This place is far away from the town, so even if there is a battle between big monsters, it can be ensured that it will not affect the monsters and humans in the town.

However, just as Nura Rihan stopped and turned around, a dark red sword light was already approaching from a distance.

Chapter 305: The strengthening of Herrscher Authority, the unsolvable Erosion Power

Bang!

Seeing the dark red sword light approaching him in an instant, Nura Rihan immediately raised the long sword in his hand to parry.

Suddenly, a powerful force carrying a huge amount of demon power came from the tiger's mouth, forcefully pushing Nura Rihan's body backwards.

"Not only do you have strong monster power, but your physical fitness is also amazing. What kind of monster are you?"

Looking at Yae Kasumi who was chasing him not far away, with sharp eyes and looking like he was planning to continue attacking at any time, Nura Rihan asked while moving his numb hands.

When he collided with the dark red sword light just now, he thought he was being attacked head-on by a big monster-level ghost king. The powerful force almost made him unable to hold the weapon in his hand.

On the other hand, when I was in the town, the attack I launched against him was taken by the opponent effortlessly with a knife in one hand. Even if I didn't take it seriously at the time, it was enough to show that the opponent was superior to me in terms of strength.

So now, Nura Rihan is very curious about what kind of monster Yae Kasumi is.

Rabbit demon? Fox demon? No... if I feel right, the other party seems to be... a half-demon?

But logically speaking, half-demon should be inferior to pure-blooded monsters in terms of both demonic power and physical fitness. Even if a big monster like him has a half-demon offspring with a human, it will be difficult for his offspring to inherit all of his talents and powers.

If that's the case, why is the opponent so powerful?

Yae Kasumi did not give an answer to Nura Rihan's inquiry, and only responded with a few kunai flashing with lightning.

Now that it has been confirmed that the other party is the enemy that needs to be defeated, Yae Kasumi will not talk nonsense during the battle.

Moreover, Nura Rihan's problem is actually very simple in nature. On the one hand, Yae Kasumi, who was born in the worldview of Honkai Impact 3rd, has physical fitness that can compete with A-Class~ordinary S-rank Valkyrie. On the other hand, it is the enhancement brought by Herrscher Authority given by An Xiu.

As we all know, Honkai can do anything, let alone using Honkai Energy to strengthen the body, a basic operation that has appeared many times in the original work.

It is unimaginable how huge the Honkai Energy brought by a copy of Herrscher Authority is. For details, please refer to the original An Xiu in Jujutsu Seele and Makima, the embodiments of the world, have never been short of blue since they were given to Herrscher Authority by An Xiu.

Even in today's world, after adapting to the power system of the Gensokyo world, its properties are more inclined to demonic power, but the nature of the ring energy is also retained. This means that Yae Kasumi, whose fighting style is more inclined to close combat, can use a large amount of demonic power to strengthen itself anytime and anywhere.

With his strong enough physical fitness and the enhancement of Herrscher Authority, he showed a powerful force that could easily crush the big monster Nura Rihan head-on.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several kunai lingering with lightning and the sound of breaking through the air flew in front of Nura Rihan. Feeling the majestic demonic power condensed on them, Nura Rihan did not dare to be careless and immediately swung several knives to fly away the kunai one by one.

But the next second, his eyes suddenly changed, because after flicking the kunai away, the demonic power gathered on those kunai was still wrapped around his weapon, and was faintly spreading along the blade to his hands holding the knife.

He instinctively felt something bad in his heart, but before Nura Rihan could respond, Yae Kasumi, who was still far away, appeared in front of him in an instant, swinging out the Ninja Sword in his hand.

"Ninjutsu: Thunder God Flash!"

Poof!

It was only then that Yae Kasumi's voice and the sound of the Ninja sword slicing through flesh were finally heard. As a price, Nura Rihan's chest instantly had two bloodstains that were deep enough to show the bones.

"This demon power... isn't right!"

His body jumped away quickly, and it was only then that Nura Rihan finally realized what was going on with his previous bad feeling.

I saw that at the scar on Nura Rihan's chest, the dark red demon power carried by the two ninja swords was now spreading on his body like maggots attached to his bones. Wherever it passed, scarlet lines appeared in the eroded areas.

Faced with this situation, Nura Rihan instinctively tried to use his demonic power to stop it, but this action was like adding fuel to the fire. The dark red demonic power that originally took some time to corrode the body instantly extended along the gathered demonic power, which seemed to spread directly to the whole body through Nura Rihan's demonic power.

This scene instantly made Nura Rihan break out in cold sweat. He withdrew his demonic power with a solemn expression and allowed the opponent's demonic power to continue to occupy his body.

To be honest, this feeling of being gradually eroded all over the body is not pleasant. It is like waiting silently for death, but Nura Rihan is unable to do anything about it.

The body will be eroded by the opponent's demonic power. Using your own demonic power to stop it will speed up the spread of the opponent's demonic power.

This kind of ghostly nature basically means that as long as you are contaminated by the other party's demonic power, you can't stop it at all, and you can only let your body be continuously invaded.

The only solution is to find a way not to touch the opponent's demonic power from the beginning. Maybe cutting off the part of the body contaminated with demonic power can also be solved, but the problem is that his injury is on the chest.

"Such a troublesome and evil force is as if it was created specifically to target life. It is full of malice from the inside out."

"With this kind of power, to be honest, I have some doubts about your purpose. Is your purpose of coming here really just to fight me?"

Nura Rihan ignored the worsening scars on his chest, straightened up and asked Yae Kasumi.

Unfortunately, the only response he received was another attack.

Whoosh!

The dark red sword light cut through the night again, leaving a hundred-meter-long crack on the ground. The mixed demonic power spread along the soil to all sides, constantly turning everything around it into a realm of erosion.

Nura Rihan, who had already experienced a powerful lesson, did not dare to confront him head-on. While his body kept dodging, his eyes also showed an extremely serious look.

Since you can't stop the opponent's terrifying demonic power from spreading by yourself, then if you defeat the opponent, will the opponent's demonic power disappear?

To be honest, he actually doesn't like leaving his fate in the hands of others, especially when the other person is his enemy.

Nura Rihan, who has already doubted the opponent's purpose because of Herrscher of Corruption's power, cannot guarantee whether the opponent will mercifully take back this power after the battle is over. Therefore, whether it is for the Nura Clan's safety or simply for his own life, he must win this battle.

The remaining demonic power in the body was circulating. Nura Rihan used his special ability unique to the slick ghost clan for the first time in the battle, Mirror Calm.

As the ability was activated, Nura Rihan's figure quietly disappeared from Yae Kasumi's sight.

Chapter 306: Nura Rihan: Erosion Power is not a wheelchair, it needs to be operated

Mirror Calm, its essence is to control its own existence through the innate ability of the Slippery Ghost, turning itself into Nihility, thereby achieving the effect of disappearing in the eyes of others.

Of course, this so-called transformation Nihility is not the transformation Nihility in the true sense. Its nature is more focused on manipulating its own sense of existence.

Under the ability of Mirror Calm, the enemy cannot detect Nura Rihan's figure, nor his aura, nor his attacks.

Very good ability, if used for sneak attacks, he is definitely a good player, but unfortunately, Remembrance, who possesses An Xiu, and Yae Kasumi, who already knows the opponent's ability, have already thought of a way to deal with it in advance.

I saw the figure of Yae Kasumi erratic on the battlefield. While guarding against attacks that might come at any time, it released a large amount of dark red demonic power, which filled the entire battlefield and crazily eroded the surrounding environment and land.

Since Slippery's innate ability is not the true incarnation of Nihility, it means that even if he uses his own abilities, the opponent will still be affected by a wide range of abilities.

And it just so happens that Herrscher of Corruption's power is best at large-scale erosion and transformation. In other words, most Herrscher Authority have the ability to affect the environment on a large scale.

Compared to the barrier that restrained Herrscher Authority with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers, the flame Herrscher burned the entire Australia, and even Herrscher of Earth manipulated gravity to directly tear and sink the continental plate. Now that Yae Kasumi has a complete Herrscher Authority, the part of Erosion Power released has been very restrained.

But even so, with the release of Erosion Power, everything within a radius of nearly 10,000 meters instantly turned into eroded territory.

At this moment, Nura Rihan, who had concealed his own existence, was sweating profusely.

He had been accidentally injured by the opponent's attack before, and his body was constantly being eroded by the opponent's strange demonic power.

Now, as the opponent completely releases his demon power, the entire world has instantly turned into the enemy's domain. In this environment, without the opponent taking action, his body will collapse in a moment or so at most due to the combination of the opponent's weird demon power within his body and the surrounding environment.

And because he had no idea that the other party's ability could affect such a large range, Nura Rihan couldn't even use his ability to escape from the influence of this strange demonic power, and his body would definitely be unable to hold on.

There is not much time left for him, now is the time, he must take action immediately!

Only by defeating the opponent can it be possible to get rid of the influence of this strange demonic power. There is no other choice.

The long knife in his hand was tightly held in his hands, and a silvery cold light flashed under the moonlight.

Nura Rihan ignored the scarlet lines that were climbing up his body, saw the right moment, and forcibly launched an attack on Yae Kasumi in front of him.

It was clear that he was attacking with fierce momentum, but due to the innate ability of the Slippery Ghost, he came to the enemy silently. He only needed to take one more step to kill the enemy with his sword.

Just at this moment, Yae Kasumi, who should have known nothing about the attack, suddenly raised the ninja sword in his hand and blocked Nura Rihan's attack.

Bang!!!

The slash that condensed all his strength collided with the opponent's weapon, making a harsh clang sound. A bit of astonishment appeared in Nura Rihan's eyes. Before he could react, Yae Kasumi immediately struck and kicked him away.

Boom!!!

Relying on his own physical fitness and the enhancement of Honkai Energy's demonic power, Nura Rihan's body was hit hard on the ground by this blow. The surrounding land suddenly sunk and cracks appeared like spider webs.

"You lost."

When the dust in the sky dispersed, Nura Rihan, who could no longer maintain his ability, just recovered and saw a ninja sword placed on his neck at some point.

"How... did you find out about my attack?"

Nura Rihan, who was lying on the ground, stared at Yae Kasumi in front of him, opened his mouth, and found that just speaking was extremely difficult for him at this moment.

The scarlet lines that symbolized unknown ominousness had spread all over his body before he knew it, and both his body and his demonic power had collapsed in all directions.

Now, he is almost unable to sense his own existence.

Faced with Nura Rihan's questions, Yae Kasumi, who had already won, did not hesitate to give his answer.

"It is true that I cannot detect your attack, but I can sense changes in the surrounding environment Erosion Power."

"That's it..."

Hearing this, Nura Rihan suddenly understood.

Mirror Calm's ability can indeed cover up its own existence, and it can also cover up its ordinary impact on the surrounding environment. This is why Nura Rihan feels confident in its own abilities.

But the problem is that his ability obviously cannot affect the opponent's strange demonic power that he calls Erosion Power, and naturally he cannot conceal the impact on it.

In the previous battle, the opponent used his own demon power to turn everything with a radius of tens of thousands of meters into his own territory in one breath.

In such an environment, even if the other party cannot detect your own existence, you can still detect the changes in the demon's power and deduce your actions.

In other words, the moment the opponent releases the demonic power that contains its own special power to rewrite the environment, the outcome of this battle is already doomed, and you have no chance of winning from the beginning to the end.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps came, and they had already arrived at the scene. An Xiu and Meli, who had been watching the battle, came over from a short distance away.

"What a wonderful battle. The strength of the big monster is indeed far beyond what ordinary monsters can match."

"Now that the battle is over, Xia, please withdraw all your demonic power."

"It's an order."

Hearing this, Yae Kasumi nodded, then retracted his Ninja Sword, and then retracted all the Erosion Power in the surrounding environment, including Nura Rihan.

However, since Nura Rihan's own demonic power has been completely eroded by Erosion Power, when Yae Kasumi takes back its demonic power, Nura Rihan's remaining demonic power is also cleared away. Even after getting rid of the influence of Erosion Power, the whole person's aura has become extremely weak, and it is expected that it will take a long time to recover before returning to normal.

"Ding! It is detected that Yae Kasumi is the host and defeats Nura Rihan. Reward 45,000 points."

The system prompt sounded in An Xiu's ears at the right time.

With a very high proportion of the plot in the original work of the Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, and a strength that is almost only inferior to that of the half-demon Abe no Seimei, Nura Rihan was able to contribute more than 40,000 points, which was also expected by An Xiu.

After receiving the harvest from this battle, An Xiu, who had already walked closer, set his sights on Yae Kasumi.

"Do you have any special feelings about this battle?"

After hearing An Xiu's words, Yae Kasumi thought for a moment.

"How do you feel? The so-called big monster seems to be weaker than expected."

Just listen to Yae Kasumi reply.

Not far away, upon hearing Yae Kasumi's answer, Nura Rihan, who was lying weakly on the ground, suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth.

Do you think that as long as you release your demonic power and fight your opponent casually for a few times, you can watch your opponent die suddenly on the spot, which is very useful?

If it weren't for that extremely tricky and weird ability, and it was just a competition on the use of demonic power and combat skills, even if he lost in the end, he would never lose as embarrassingly as he did now.

"Even if it got to this point, they didn't take my life. It seems that they really just came to the Nura Clan to discuss things."
