Chapter 185 - Technique

Whether Gojo Satoru used 'Blue' or 'Red' , these Cursed Techniques were created by previous heads of the Gojo Family, though their power wasn't as outrageous back then.

Therefore, Fushiguro Toji, who was formerly of the Zenin Family, immediately recognized the Cursed Technique Gojo Satoru unleashed as 'Red'.

After all, the Zenin Family, as their long-time rival, possessed all the Cursed Technique data of the other two families.

However, when Fushiguro Toji saw Gojo Satoru simultaneously deploying 'Blue' and 'Red', merging these two "nuclear bombs" together to form the new 'Hollow Purple', he couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise.

'Hollow Purple' is a Cursed Technique that few even within the main Gojo Family know about, as the activation conditions are too strict, making it virtually impossible to achieve; even its developer believed this.

Only Gojo Satoru, with the refined operation capabilities of the Six Eyes, could effortlessly combine "positive infinity" and "negative infinity."

Forming true infinity, and unleashing this infinite power entirely as a Cursed Technique.

Thus, the technique 'Hollow Technique: Hollow Purple' was born.

"Zzzzt!" The Cursed Technique's formation was immensely loud, filled with noisy, grating sounds, but when the blinding red light erupted from Gojo Satoru's palm, all sound vanished.

In the universal silence, a beam containing endless imaginary mass instantly poured forth into the space!

Just by looking at the volume of the exploding purple light mass, one could tell how terrifying Gojo Satoru's Cursed Technique, 'Hollow Purple', was.

The 'Hollow Purple' Gojo Satoru unleashed with full power was truly shocking, being half the height of the Sleeping Lotus Bodhisattva Aspect constructed by Kenmyo using the Rin Winter Frost Heart Cursed Technique.

The terrifying purple light mass scattered annihilation particles, roaring as it devoured everything in its path. Space was torn apart, and even the dirac sea, which likewise contained near-infinite mass internally, was ruthlessly suppressed once again.

Since the Domain constructed by Kenmyo was quite large, everyone could more clearly feel the shock as 'Hollow Purple' rushed toward the distance at extreme speed.

"Even Gojo was hiding his strength."

Fortunately, having Kenmyo's example beforehand, Gojo Satoru revealing his true power to Suguru Geto now caused surprise, but it wasn't outrageous.

Fine, fine, fine, everyone is hiding their strength.

Suguru Geto, as their good friend, felt genuinely awful, sensing that he was dragging them down.

Moreover, what filled him more was dissatisfaction with his own disappointing strength.

Since when did time start... when did you two become so distant from me?

Suguru Geto clenched his fists tightly, unaware that his fingernails were digging into his flesh.

"I want power!"

A seed of intense craving for great power had already taken root deep within Suguru Geto's heart.

"Hahaha, interesting."

Gojo Shinyan's face was completely illuminated by the purple light, and the fierce winds made the silver braid behind him whip and rattle.

"So, in the years since I died..."

"I wasn't the only one who had the idea of rewriting Limitless."

Facing Gojo Satoru's full-power outburst, Gojo Shinyan no longer maintained his previous calm demeanor.

Giving his descendant a little pressure actually resulted in such a surprise; it was truly unexpected.

"Perfect. My Infinity versus your Infinity. Let's see whose Infinity is superior!"

Gojo Shinyan was indeed a member of the Gojo Family, just like Gojo Satoru; the intense sense of crisis instead ignited his fighting spirit.

For the strong, taking even one step back when facing an enemy's attack is a disgrace.

Taking a deep breath of fresh air, the excited Gojo Shinyan displayed a maniacal laugh that seemed identical to Gojo Satoru's.

The black aura surrounding Gojo Shinyan's entire body surged constantly, eventually forming a colossal shadow that continued to expand.

The posture it formed somewhat resembled the Karasu Tengu that Kenmyo had previously defeated: six wings fully spread behind it, a long-nosed red mask like a demon face, majestic and ornate armor covering its body, and a Katana at its waist, which was also manifested.

Moreover, as Gojo Shinyan moved, the silhouette behind him performed the exact same actions.

For instance, when Gojo Shinyan spread his hands and waved them upward, the Karasu Tengu behind him did the same, raising its hands.

"Rise!" Gojo Shinyan shouted hoarsely.

Driven by the Karasu Tengu, a nearly massive amount of Cursed Energy was directly unleashed from Gojo Shinyan's body.

Almost instantly, the dirac sea, which had been utterly suppressed by 'Hollow Purple' and was previously silent, suddenly boiled completely as if it had gained life.

"Rumble!" The earth shook and the mountains swayed; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it world-shattering, as the noise alone was deafening.

The dirac sea, which had been contained and compressed by Kenmyo to nearly six square kilometers, was actually lifted entirely by the Cursed Technique User, Gojo Shinyan.

This move by Gojo Shinyan demonstrated one thing: Your ancestor will always be your ancestor.

Correspondingly, the previously arrogant 'Hollow Purple' was significantly diminished in presence.

The difference in volume between the two was like placing a billiard ball in the center of an eight-person round table—it could be swallowed whole and effortlessly.

Kenmyo watched this scene without intervening. He held his arms, but in reality, he was already preparing to act.

The waters here were too deep for Gojo Satoru to handle.

Gojo Shinyan's originally crimson eyes were now so red they seemed to drip blood—no, two distinct trails of blood were already running down from his eye sockets.

The rejection between his soul and body deepened with every use of the Cursed Technique, making Gojo Shinyan look utterly miserable.

Blood seeped through his magnificent Kimono, staining it red. It seemed that merely using this Cursed Technique was enough to send his body down the road of no return toward destruction.

But Gojo Shinyan no longer cared.

It was still that saying: without truly witnessing death, one cannot feel the true meaning of life.

He intended to use this broken body to achieve a deeper level of evolution for Gojo Satoru.

Gojo Satoru seemed strong possessing this level of power at his age, but he was still slightly short of Gojo Shinyan's expected goal.

Especially after witnessing the power of the other young man, Gojo Shinyan's demands for Gojo Satoru became even higher.

Gojo Shinyan wanted Gojo Satoru to completely surpass Kenmyo!

What does death matter? It's merely returning to that dark, sunless place.

That was just the beginning; the true Cursed Technique deployment was about to start now!

After a furious roar, Gojo Shinyan began forming hand seals.

The entire dirac sea also began to change accordingly, first transforming into a mass of black shadow that, with an invincible and overwhelming force, completely devoured 'Hollow Purple'.

Gojo Satoru's 'Hollow Purple' didn't even have a chance to resist, being completely swallowed by the terrifying, sunless darkness.

After all, Gojo Satoru's 'Hollow Purple' was at most an imaginary force approaching infinity, while the other was the combined power of the entire infinite dirac sea.

Within Kenmyo's Domain, Gojo Shinyan's dirac sea had formed an incredibly massive black sphere. Just floating there, it created a suffocating sense of oppression.

Light reflected off the celestial dome onto the central sphere, casting endless shadows below.

Gojo Shinyan slowly flew into the air, looking down upon Gojo Satoru, who was completely engulfed by his shadow.

Those were clearly just a pair of ordinary eyes, yet they managed to completely overwhelm Gojo Satoru's Six Eyes.

Gojo Satoru, looking up from below, could only see a pair of incredibly blood-red eyes, while the perpetrator himself was only vaguely visible as a black silhouette. The Karasu Tengu behind him expanded infinitely, resembling a demon god.

Now, the Domain was left with only the alternating primary colors of black and white: the crushing darkness confronted the sacred and pristine white of Kenmyo's side, subtly forming a balance of power.

It was hard to imagine the terrifying level of talent Gojo Shinyan must possess to achieve this without the Six Eyes.

"Gojo Satoru!"

"You know nothing of power."

Gojo Shinyan looked down at Gojo Satoru from above, his tone utterly cold.

"Feel the power of a falling star."

No matter how flashy a Cursed Technique is, it ultimately reverts to its essence: generating powerful destructive force.

And this ultra-high-density aggregate, possessing a weight far exceeding any substance on Earth, would, upon impact, produce destructive power no less than that generated instantaneously by an asteroid striking the planet.

Kenmyo immediately recognized this fatal problem. He had no choice but to intervene now; the intensity of his Domain might not be able to withstand that terrifying impact force.

But Gojo Shinyan gave Gojo Satoru no time to react. Just as he raised his hand high and was about to bring it down...

...in his startled gaze, he saw his own hand flying through the air.

"If you want to die, don't drag us down with you, okay?"

It was Fushiguro Toji. He cleanly grabbed Gojo Shinyan's severed hand and held the Heavenly Restriction in his other hand.

He was wiser this time. Since the previous issue seemed to be high-speed regeneration through flesh and blood reconstruction, he simply took the flesh away so the guy couldn't reassemble.

The terrifying explosive power allowed Fushiguro Toji to charge right next to Gojo Shinyan in an instant, cutting off his hand without hesitation.

"Why hasn't the Cursed Technique ended?" Fushiguro Toji had cleaved off his entire arm, yet it seemed the Technique was still progressing.

The effect of the Heavenly Restriction is to forcibly cancel any Cursed Technique currently in operation.

Logically, Gojo Shinyan's Cursed Technique should have ended, but the descent of the'Star' had already begun.

Because Gojo Shinyan had anticipated that the person who inflicted the greatest damage on him initially would inevitably interfere with him in the end.

It was absurd that Fushiguro Toji could bypass Gojo Shinyan's automatic Cursed Technique defense and still mince him, so the problem must lie with that sword.

Gojo Shinyan had been guarding against this sword for a long time, so the Cursed Technique was already completed at the very beginning of the'Star's' construction.

He set it on a timer, rather than relying on Gojo Shinyan's command.

Therefore, the 'Star Fall' was unavoidable.

"Hahaha, it's useless—*cough*."

Gojo Shinyan didn't finish his sentence before he vomited a large pool of blood. Even covering his mouth with his hand, the blood still poured out in gushes.

Moreover, the Karasu Tengu behind him also let out a miserable shriek, as if severely wounded. Its majestic armor decayed, and the built-up, muscular physique underneath peeled away layer by layer like silk being unwound.

In the end, nothing, not even bone, remained, and it simply dissipated into the air.

In the pools of blood Gojo Shinyan vomited onto the ground, one could see a considerable amount of flesh chunks—a mixture of internal organs and muscle tissue.

Furthermore, more and more blood was seeping through Gojo Shinyan's Kimono.

If Gojo Shinyan lifted his clothes, he would see that his body surface was already riddled with holes, flesh had rotted away, leaving many frightening large cavities through which his internal organs and pale ribs were visible.

"Have I reached my limit?"

Gojo Shinyan's vision went black, becoming blurry, and the world began to spin.

He likely only had a little time left in this world.

Gojo Shinyan clutched his severed arm. He looked incredibly weak, swaying until he could no longer maintain his position in the air, falling to the ground before the'Star' did.

Gojo Shinyan, lying on the ground, was like a fragile porcelain doll; the impact caused cracks to spread all over his body.

Despite his state, Gojo Shinyan still looked toward Gojo Satoru's location with expectant eyes until the moment before death.

Because Gojo Shinyan wanted to see Gojo Satoru use a Cursed Technique that surpassed 'Hollow Purple'.

Unfortunately, Gojo Satoru did not live up to those expectations.

"Hey, hey, hey, you've got to be kidding me."

Even if Gojo Satoru was abnormal or spacey, he felt a completely different sense of danger at this moment.

He widened his eyes, staring up completely at that massive object.

If that thing above his head fell, it would definitely cause major trouble.

Thinking this, Gojo Satoru didn't dare to stop for a second, immediately conjuring another 'Hollow Purple' and throwing it upward.

Since this time it acted on the surface, he could observe its destructive power upon explosion.

The power was considerable; it probably vaporized nearly 700 cubic meters of earth and rock.

Compared to the volume of the entire'Star', it was merely the tip of the iceberg.

"Damn it!!!"

Gojo Satoru acted like a madman, abandoning the low-efficiency 'Hollow Purple' and immediately casting 'Blue' and 'Red' instantly. Although their power was less than the former, they compensated with high frequency.

By the time one 'Hollow Purple' would form, Gojo Satoru had already thrown out four 'Blue's.

High frequency completely compensated for the lack of damage.

Kenmyo shook his head watching Gojo Satoru's anxious appearance. Perhaps this was a case of worry clouding judgment.

If Gojo Satoru had used Limitless to construct a true black hole, there would be no way he couldn't completely devour the'Star' above.

Unfortunately, Gojo Satoru lacked the time cost for such a technique; one mistake and they would all be finished.

Therefore, the cautious Gojo Satoru chose the safest method.

That was to rely on quantity and continuously attack.

But, doing this, would Gojo Satoru's Cursed Energy really be enough?

"So, I guess it still falls to me." Kenmyo sighed softly.

Gojo Shinyan and the Karasu Tengu that appeared behind him gave Kenmyo a hint: it seemed that using a shaped construct more powerful than one's own physical body as the Cursed Technique User resulted in Cursed Techniques that were stronger than usual.

"Then let's be a little rougher."

In the incredibly oppressive atmosphere, Kenmyo slowly raised his hand in front of him. The Bodhisattva Aspect behind him instantly changed from pure holiness to pitch black.

The closed eyes of the Bodhisattva Aspect opened at this moment, revealing crimson pupils.

The power was completely different—it was the monstrous resentment from the skull, which had polluted it.

The 'Maximum Technique' is the limit of a Cursed Technique, its maximum power.

Kenmyo's right eye burned with intensely crimson, enchanting flames as he activated his Cursed Technique.

'Heaven's Fall'. No matter how big the star is, it must fall into this world. But conversely, what if the firmament falls? How immense would that destructive power be?

When Kenmyo's Cursed Energy burned to its limit, the'Star' and the sky of the Domain were simultaneously ripped apart, like a white eraser wiping away everything.

Revealing the azure sky, the previous world-ending scene was merely an illusion.

"We're back." Gojo Satoru, breathing heavily, showed a look of relief after escaping disaster.

Over there was Suguru Geto, who had also returned to the spot where Kenmyo had used his Domain.

"Wait, where is that bastard uncle taking Riko and Kenmyo?"

The last scene Gojo Satoru saw before losing consciousness was Fushiguro Toji helping Kenmyo and disappearing with Riko Amanai.

"Medical team! Medical team!" The Jujutsu Sorcerer stationed outside from the Jujutsu Sorcerer Association immediately rushed over.
