Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!

```

[The three days' time had passed in a blink, and over eighty percent of Japan's curse masters were amassed in Shibuya.]

[Midnight had arrived, the chilling wind howled furiously, and the gates to the underworld flung open. You all witnessed the towering Yoshitsune, over thirty feet tall, swaggering into Shibuya with a countless horde of various demons, curse spirits, and malevolent entities, pouring toward the heart of Shibuya: the Sealing Grounds.]

[The great battle erupted in an instant!]

[Humanity's strongest force, the one and only 2.5 Go, stood alone against the Ghost King Yoshitsune, without falling behind.]

[The key to victory lay with you all. Under your and two other Special Grade Curse Masters' leadership, you needed to crush the remaining demons.]

[Bodhisattva, river demon, Gu Huoniao. Bone woman, Snow Woman, two-mouthed woman. Cat Demon, sickle weasel, Green Lantern...]

[Curse Fetus, dead spirits, rotting dogs, Zombie King, vengeful spirits, swollen corpses.]

[It seemed as if the demons and ghosts were endless, and the human casualties were devastating.]

[At this moment, to your horror, you discovered two more Great Demons among the monsters, their strength on par with the Ghost King Yoshitsune!]

[Big Heavenly Dog and Cimu Tongzi had apparently resurrected earlier, and now in their prime, they charged into the crowd, with even Level 1 Curse Masters hardly being a match for them.]

[In a flash, high-rise buildings collapsed en masse. Even the infamous Twin Towers, the little boy and the fat man, seemed like they had no more destructive power than this.]

[The scales of victory tipped in favor of the monsters and ghosts.]

["Shen Valley First-class, what are you waiting for? Fully engage now!" bellowed another Special Grade Curse Master, half their body torn to shreds, at you.]

[It seemed that through a brief fling with you, she had somehow come to know a little of your trump card. Should you succeed, there was hope of tipping the scales of victory towards humanity.]

[At this critical juncture, you hesitated, knowing that you had not held back at all. It was just that the enemy was too strong.]

["I'm sorry, I no longer have enough power to transcend. Perhaps, this is as far as I go..." You felt incredibly sorry that you could not push Cimu and the Big Heavenly Dog to their limits.]

[Upon hearing your words, everyone began to despair. It wasn't that humanity wasn't trying, it was that the enemy was too cunning and powerful.]

[In this dire moment, your vision blurred, and you saw your teacher appear before you.]

["Teacher, how are you here?" You were surprised, because you had clearly seen him locked in battle with Yoshitsune.]

["First-class, I know all about your situation. Let me, your teacher, lend you the power to peak once more!" He said as he launched the strongest reversal technique—]

[Technique: Female (Zi)]

[He transformed, yin and yang reversed, becoming a stunningly beautiful woman.]

"What the fuck?!"

Xu Shu almost spat out.

On the screen appeared a seductively charming woman, with white hair and blue eyes, a smile that could bewitch a soul, fatally alluring.

In his life, Xu Shu had surpassed so many powerful women, yet none matched him, no, her!

["Little fellow, let's get reacquainted. I am Dancing Go, as Three Corpses. This is my last trump card after returning from a three-year study in Xia Country! Although it does not possess actual strength, it has the same ranking as my original body. That should be sufficient for you, right?"]

[She whispered in your ear, her breath as sweet as an orchid, and with your youthful vigor, how could you resist her?]

[Thus, a highly anticipated, earth-shattering Yin Yang Fusion was born.]

[Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, heralding the birth of a king.]

[Dancing Go had fulfilled her mission and was completely surpassed by you.]

[And you, Shen Valley First-class, you not only surpassed her, but you finally surpassed yourself!]

[Your power to transcend reached its limit. Looking down at the ghosts slaughtering below, you unleashed all the 'transcendence power' you had accumulated.]

["This is all my transcendence power. Please take it, Cursing Picture!"]

["Divine! Spirit! Summon!"]

[You performed a desperate summoning, going all-in. You were like a mad gambler.]

[As it turned out, not all wailing kids cry every night, nor do all gamblers lose every day.]

[This time, your summoning was a massive success!]

[The gates of heaven opened wide, and a pair of eyes looked down from the high heavens, finally revealing a woman's face.]

["Ah, it's her?"]

[You recognized that face. She had once gracefully entertained you; she was Izanami!]

[However, you sensed something was off. This wasn't the scene you had imagined, where a divine spirit possessed you to conduct a great slaughter.]

[As soon as she appeared, she exuded an apocalyptic aura, and both the Night Parade of Hundred Demons and human curse masters, previously engaged in inextricable battle, stopped at once, trembling uncontrollably.]

[Even 2.5 Go, who claimed to be unrivaled in heaven and on earth, hugged Yoshitsune and buried his head between his legs, shivering too much to raise his head!]

["Eh? What the hell did I summon? Is this a real god?"]

[You saw Her, and She saw you. You locked eyes for a good ten minutes, and a glimmer of emotion stirred in Her eyes.]

[It seemed that upon seeing you, She, recalled a trace of humanity...]

[Just then, several hundred women of varying ages, cradling infants in their arms, yelled to you: Anada! Keep living! You can't lose!]

["Shit," you felt this was not a good time for such an interruption.]

[Sure enough, She turned Her gaze toward those women, and time stood still for an instant.]

[Immediately all of the women dropped dead, not one was spared, including their corpses, all erased from existence.]

[She looked at the horde of demons, and they too died, their bodies burnt to ashes by black flames.]

```

[The Great Demon Yuzaoqian had just opened the sealed door when she turned her head to close it, but it was too late to escape; both the demon and the door crumbled into powder.]

[She then looked toward humanity, whereupon all the human Cursing Masters in the area died, none spared.]

[With a single thought, all beings perished.]

[She finally turned her gaze on you and it seemed that because of some past relation, she could awaken?]

[You looked again, full of anticipation.]

[You saw a pair of eyes devoid of any emotion, eyes that enveloped everything. You heard Her say to you: ——]

["You die too."]

["..."]

[An overwhelming power descended, one that the human world could not bear. The earth shook, and Japan sank——]

[News of the calamity reached all nations, yet neither aircraft nor ships could approach. To draw near was to die, and the range of the death-riddled land continued to expand over the sea, eventually forming the Sea of Death.]

[The sinking of Japan marked the beginning of the Great Catastrophe. Afterward, other nations also suffered invincible "Divine Descents".]

[Only in death did you wonder, if you hadn't merged with the avatar of Two-Five Wu's slender dance, causing that strange God to suddenly descend, could humanity have lived a few more years?]

[Or perhaps, if those women had not interfered at the last moment, could you have ultimately awakened Izanami's human nature, leading to a different turn of events?]

[Life is like a game of chess; no regrets should be had once a piece is played. Perhaps, in many years to come, a way to make amends might still emerge? Yet unknown.]

——

Looking upon the scarred earth, Xu Shu was so shocked he was at a loss for words for a long time.

"Japan has sunk; hmm, I remember there being such a record in the actual history, and it's said to have caused some peculiar effects."

"Ha, it seems the legendary tales created in the Tai Chu Scroll are based on the files I previously stuffed in, and they also combine with this world, this way, it becomes more realistic to me!"

The fog before Xu Shu's eyes dissipated, and he composed himself, not forgetting one of the purposes of initiating the legendary mode this time.

To test the state of his own body during legendary mode!

Opening his eyes, everything around him was as before, and he remained in the posture he had before, sitting cross-legged on the ground.

However, the sun was about to set.

"I remember it was shortly after lunch when I started the legend."

"Looking at the sky now, I guess about four hours have passed."

"Could it be that a legendary experience lasting three times is 12 hours, and averaging out, each instance uses up four hours of time?"

Xu Shu pondered.

And before his eyes in the void, the Tai Chu Scroll whirred open:

"Calculating your achievements for this legend..."

"You have lived unrestrained; your sweat has drenched every corner of the Capital City. You are a legend of the online social world, captivating everyone who has been in touch with you!——You've earned the achievement: Innate Enchanting Demon."

"In pursuit of power, you have continuously surpassed others through your life, from the public bus to women's bathrooms, from bunny girl seniors to centenarian old ladies. You have always been surpassing others, surpassing yourself!——You've earned the achievement: Superman."

"You've been generous with your favors; with women with whom you've had ties, you've fathered over one thousand five hundred offspring. If everyone were like you, the world would never face issues of declining birthrates!——You've earned the achievement: Breeding Champion!"

"You eventually even had an affair with your teacher Two-Five Wu, although they told you it was their avatar. But you knew very well they and she were one and the same!——You've earned the achievement: Swinging Both Ways."

"You have practiced martial arts intently with the mundane incarnation of the Mother of Divine Country. You emerged triumphantly, the closest you've ever been to the gods – you stood proudly above the high heavens——You've earned the achievement: Super God."

"Fortune favored you explosively, drawing forth an Original God who, regardless of friend or foe, killed all of you——You've earned the achievement: Party Wipe Initiator!"

"Your last miraculous move not only destroyed yourself, but also all of Japan, advancing everyone's death anniversary by half a year!——You've earned the achievement: King of Hell!"

...

"Damn King of Hell, do you think I want to die?"

Xu Shu protested.

This was not the ending he wanted.

"Assessment: All your life, not given to fighting, surviving nineteen years, the battles you've faced are few and far between. What you excel in is resolving conflicts.

"Your life's creed is: Hero, go beyond!

"Your motto is: When the enemy blushes, I shall strip off her clothes!

"From an utterly ordinary person, you have grown into a Curse Master beyond the special grade. Shouting your motto, you've stayed true to your creed, always choosing to transcend without a fight.

"Even at death's door, you still attempted to cast a flirtatious glance at the Taboo God, bravely so. You are truly defiant of heaven."

"You have earned the title: Enchanting Demon (Fine)

"In this legend, you've performed many heavenly defiant moves, having charmed a Taboo Level deity successfully. Your reward level has been raised by two levels:

"Enchanting demon (Fine)"Enchanting demon (Flawless)"

"Enchanting Demon (Flawless): While bearing this title, you will learn the skill [Charm Gaze] which can be cast at targets within a certain range of sight! Using it on the opposite gender will induce a charm effect; they will be compelled to move towards you until the effect is broken; using it on the same gender will induce a taunt effect; they will be driven into a rage to attack you until the effect fades."

——

"Single-target taunt, single-target charm? This skill seems pretty useless...?"

"But to me right now, is it really useful?"

Xu Shu stroked his chin and fell deep in thought.
