After hearing these words from Zhao Yao’s spirit, Kaede Hattori’s gaze shimmered with two blood rays. He coldly said, “With such arrogance, you shall witness the true strength of the powerful.”

In the next moment, from his body, a more violent blast of the Divine Rays of Terror erupted in all directions.

Whatever the rays touched, a series of ghostly wailing ensued. Numerous warriors, on the verge of collapse, broke into terrible wails as Kaede Hattori used them to generate even more terror energy.

Looking at the fearless Zhao Yao standing in the midst of the battlefield, Kaede Hattori nodded his head as he said, “Mr. Yamada, you are pretty good.”

After which, he glared at both Zhao Yao’s spirit and Momo and said, “Help me watch Momo. Do not let her escape. Let me teach this arrogant spirit a lesson so that he will know true power.”

“You are the first person to experience this move.”

The entire battlefield grew dimmer and a downpour of bloody rain fell from the sky. Thick crimson blood oozed from the ground. Countless mournful cries rang out from the void.

Not only did Kaede Hattori use the terror energy from the current battlefield, but he also used the terror energy he had accumulated from all his previous battle encounters and missions to create a final mass of explosive energy.

The overflow of terror energy distorted reality, causing the blood rain and wailing spirits.

Zhao Yao was shocked by the scene. He knelt down and touched the oozing blood. It was real; the blood was real.

Zhao Yao was surprised. “Such power… the Divine Rays of Terror of Kaede Hattori are really powerful.”

However, the blood rain and the wailing spirits were only the beginning. Due to the Hattori clan’s control over half of the Japanese supernatural world, Kaede Hattori had accumulated an astronomical amount of terror energy. Before he showed his full prowess, no one could come close to figuring out how powerful he was.

This sudden outburst of terror energy transformed Kaede Hattori’s inner fears into external realities. Reality was warped. He had superimposed his internal world onto the external world.

All his internalized fear was the result of accumulating terror energy and originated from the fears people held in their minds.

Reality grew even more warped. In the midst of the blood rain, spirits and demons from Japanese legends, such as Daitengu, Yamabiko, Yamawaro, Drumbeat Marquis, appeared out of nowhere.

Countless dead hands emerged from the ground, forming a zombie army.

Behind the crimson red clouds, numerous large and strange shadowy figures materialized. Their forms were indistinguishable. Countless tentacles tore up the clouds, swaying in the sky.

The unleashing of the terror energy had warped the world into a strange demonic realm. Momo and the supercats on Zhao Yao’s side shook uncontrollably.

Even Zhao Yao felt uneasy. Even without the influence of the Divine Rays of Terror, the demons were terrifying.

In this terrifying world, the more fearful people were, the greater the strange powers became.

Surrounded by myriad strange creatures and energy, Kaede Hattori pointed at Zhao Yao’s distant spirit and commanded, “Crush him.”

Countless spirits and demons rushed towards Zhao Yao’s spirit.

Zombies and ghostly figures pounced on him and started biting, while large powerful demons attacked him with various magic spells.

In the sky, the huge shadowy figures emanated weird crimson rays. Upon contact with the crimson rays, Zhao Yao felt a deep sense of terror that permeated his bones.

Normally, his Deflective Field protected him from most terror. He did not succumb to fear like normal people.

This meant that in its present state, his Deflective Field was unable to defend him against the Divine Rays of Terror.

The Deflective Field had its upper limit. The current power level of the Divine Rays of Terror had superseded this upper limit as it consisted of terror energy accumulated from tens of thousands of Japanese people.

Braced against the astonishing attack, Zhao Yao’s spirit flickered and an invisible force surrounded his body. He waved his hand and tore up a row of zombies. Dodging, he escaped the vicious bite of a large serpent.

“Hmm… the spirit seems to have my Time Freeze and Deflective Field abilities.” Zhao Yao was sizing up his opponent and silently contemplating, “However, the duration of the Time Freeze and the power of the Deflective Field have not reached my level.”

Kaede Hattori rapidly increased in size and demonic horns sprouted from his head.

He raised and waved his hand, transforming the terror energy into a blood-colored whip that materialized in his hands. The whip moved like a crimson dragon rolling in the air. From it, radiated cracking explosive sounds. He looked like the demon god from Hell and exuded a frightening aura.

The demonic creatures originated from the fear in everyone’s hearts. The most fearful of all was actually Kaede Hattori himself.

Kaede Hattori was the ultimate source of his own power.

“This guy… looks like he’s dealt with whiplash before.” Zhao Yao was very convinced after witnessing Kaede Hattori’s imposing aura.

The whip in Kaede Hattori’s hand became like an agile rain dragon. Sweeping horizontally and snaking distortedly, it lashed down on the spirits and swept all of them down to the ground.

The spirits howled in pain and retreated immediately. Kaede Hattori sneered and the blood whip extended from his hand, bringing with it countless blood shadows and dragging them towards Zhao Yao spirit.

“His Deflective Field was not as powerful as mine. Previously, it was unaffected by the Divine Rays of Terror. Lashed by a whip with highly concentrated terror energy, damaged it more than mine.”

Once lashed by the blood whip, Zhao Yao’s spirit became confused and panicked. The situation was worsened by the attack of the demons. Even if Zhao Yao’s spirit had had a portion of the Time Freeze and Deflective Field ability he did, he would succumb in no time.

Finally, after being dealt a fatal lash by Kaede Hattori, the terror energy burst open his body with full force. Bam! Zhao Yao’s spirit exploded.

Kaede Hattori exuded confidence and gave a satisfied smile. “Very good, the effect of the Terror Field is more powerful than what I expected. In all of Japan, there are no apostles more powerful than I am.”

He turned his head in Momo’s direction and saw Yamada (Zhao Yao) holding Momo in one hand, walking towards him. Zhao Yao had captured Momo using Time Freeze during the commotion.

After clearing the blood rays, Kaede Hattori smiled with the corners of his mouth and took Momo from Yamada (Zhao Yao). “Excellent, Yamada, you did very well. After I have reported the completion of my mission, I will reward you.”

The strange rays, rain, and demons disappeared from the universe without a trace, as if they had never happened at all.
