Shinji's gaze looking into the distance gradually became solemn.
The Bewitching Hegemon, who suffered a big loss last time, obviously didn't want to let it go. However, it also knew that with the obstruction of the spatial barrier, infiltrating only a small amount of power wouldn't be a match for Shinji at all. So this time, not only did it actively infiltrate power, but it also chose to accumulate power without releasing it.
"Truly troublesome!"
Shinji curled his lips.
If the Bewitching Hegemon acted now, he wouldn't be afraid at all. At worst, he would fight another fierce battle in World No. 3.
But the Bewitching Hegemon's behavior of holding back and waiting for an opportunity made him somewhat uncomfortable because he had to protect the God Trees and didn't have the energy to play hide-and-seek with the Bewitching Hegemon all over the world.
Beckoning the scientific sphere 'Xiao Yuan', Shinji asked: "How much time is left for this world?"
'Xiao Yuan' immediately replied: "According to the current speed, World No. 3 has 23 days, 13 hours, and 26 minutes left."
Because more and more data models were collected, 'Xiao Yuan's prediction of world destruction became more and more accurate.
"23 days..."
Shinji's face darkened.
At this stage, for every day delayed, the damage to the spatial barrier would worsen, which also meant the Bewitching Hegemon would become stronger.
"It seems it's preparing to strike suddenly in the latter half, hitting me hard!"
Shinji guessed what the Bewitching Hegemon wanted to do, but he didn't have a good way to deal with it. Because currently, the spatial barrier of World No. 3 was still reasonably sturdy, so not only was the Bewitching Hegemon shielded outside, but his God Trees also couldn't absorb the planetary energy here quickly.
So if he left now, the two God Trees wouldn't be able to store enough energy to nurture 'Chakra Fruits'.
Thus, the two sides were stuck in a stalemate.
The Bewitching Hegemon continuously infiltrated power into World No. 3, while Shinji continuously urged the God Trees to accelerate absorption efficiency.
Time flew, and two weeks passed. Less than ten days remained until the destruction time given by 'Xiao Yuan'.
At this time, World No. 3 had fallen into collapse. There was almost no daylight. The light between heaven and earth was only the thunder occasionally appearing in the clouds and the magma overflowing everywhere on the ground.
As World No. 3 collapsed, the absorption efficiency of Shinji's two God Trees improved dramatically. Their roots continuously went downwards, faintly touching the star core energy of World No. 3.
It was precisely at this time that the insect swarm hiding in the dark moved.
Unlike the cloud-like swarm before, this time, the insect swarm swept in from the darkness in all directions, making it impossible to distinguish how many there were, or even where the end of the swarm was.
"This quantity..."
Shinji frowned slightly.
Undoubtedly, the Bewitching Hegemon wanted to succeed in one go this time. The power it infiltrated gave Shinji a feeling that it faintly surpassed the power the Reproductive Hegemon infiltrated into the Six Rings World before, possessing the momentum of Mount Tai crushing down!
This time Shinji didn't have the help of the Supreme Mages of the Six Rings World and needed to face it alone, but his strength was also much stronger than when he was in the Six Rings World.
Buzz buzz buzz...
Soon, the sound of the swarm flapping their wings came over. At the same time, various noises flooded into Shinji's mind along with the swarm. However, this time he didn't choose to use genjutsu to counter the Bewitching Hegemon's bewitching power.
Slowly spreading his arms, Shinji endured the noise flooding into his mind while activating 'Kamimusubi'.
Instantly, a suffocatingly terrifying chakra erupted from Shinji's body, sweeping the surroundings as if it were substantial.
"Phew..."
After exhaling lightly, Shinji clenched his spread hands abruptly and shouted: "Bansho Ten'in!" (Universal Pull)
Boom boom boom...
Instantly, roars rang out all around!
The coordinate origin of Shinji's 'Bansho Ten'in' this time was not himself, but the ground beneath his feet. So when 'Bansho Ten'in' was activated, the gravity within a range of dozens of kilometers around him suddenly increased dozens of times. Not to mention the insect swarm flying in the air, even dust, ashes, and water vapor were affected by gravity and fell towards the ground.
And the vegetation and mountains originally on the ground couldn't withstand the sudden increase in gravity either, collapsing with a crash.
"Hmph!"
The corners of Shinji's mouth turned up slightly.
With the activation of his jutsu, everything within a radius of dozens of miles, except the God Tree beneath his feet, was instantly captured by gravity and crushed.
Before long, the buzzing of the swarm came from the roar again.
Obviously, even if captured by gravity and falling to the ground, the swarm was not annihilated but was flapping their wings on the ground.
This was within Shinji's expectations. He raised his hands upwards and shouted: "Chibaku Tensei!" (Planetary Devastation)
Clatter clatter...
The rocks just crushed by gravity immediately floated into mid-air again!
The swarm, losing the gravity constraint, also flew into the air together. However, before they could regroup, they floated into mid-air along with the crushed stones, then were pulled towards a point in the air, gathering with countless rocks into a huge celestial body suspended in the air.
Under the continuous activation of Shinji's pupil power, the celestial body created by 'Chibaku Tensei' became larger and larger, and flew higher and higher. Gradually, it left the atmosphere and arrived in the near-earth starry sky.
Standing at the top of the God Tree, Shinji looked up at the celestial body in the starry sky and smiled.
Currently, even with a casual move, he could create a huge celestial body not inferior to the moon, let alone exerting full force under the 'Kamimusubi' transformation state. So the celestial body he created at this moment was several times larger than the moon of the Shinobi World.
Of course.
Sealing was just a means. He wasn't naive enough to think 'Chibaku Tensei' could solve the swarm; all he wanted was to delay time.
Because through the last great battle, he already knew that with his current strength, annihilating the swarm wasn't impossible, but it was too time-consuming and laborious. So instead of spending a lot of energy fighting the swarm to the death, it was better to use sealing jutsu to temporarily contain the swarm and delay time.
Looking at the 'Chibaku Tensei' in the starry sky, he made a rough estimate. As long as he continuously injected pupil power into the 'Chibaku Tensei', maintaining it for a few days would be no problem at all.
These few days were enough for his two God Trees to absorb enough planetary energy to nurture 'Chakra Fruits'. And once the two God Trees were full of planetary energy, he would evacuate immediately and not continue to entangle with the Bewitching Hegemon.
In a blink of an eye, three days passed.
During these three days, another 'Chibaku Tensei' appeared in the near-earth starry sky of World No. 3. Because as the spatial barrier of World No. 3 became more and more dilapidated, the Bewitching Hegemon's power continuously infiltrated, so Shinji had no choice but to create another 'Chibaku Tensei'.
Fortunately, after these three days of delay, both God Trees were full of planetary energy. So Shinji decisively retrieved the God Trees, used the power of the 'Lamp' to cut through the spatial barrier, and left World No. 3...
