Adaptation and Devouring

"A Cursed Tool..."

As a Jujutsu Sorcerer, Mo Bai could naturally tell there was something special about the Prayer Beads on Mahoraga's wrist.

Back on Solaris, he had considered making a Cursed Tool of his own.

But just like the predicament Mahoraga had faced before, he lacked the materials.

As for using his own body, as Mahoraga had, to create a "bath" that produced a cursed energy solution?

Unfortunately, he didn't have as much time as Mahoraga did.

It seemed that ever since he had arrived on Solaris, he had been running into all sorts of enemies, one after another.

It didn't matter even if that guy completely adapted to his current attacks.

This time was different from the last, after all.

He had never intended
