The deeper Sukuna looked at the torn-apart sky, the brighter his eyes became as they shone with both wisdom and joy.

If it weren't for him still being sealed, he would have already started laughing maniacally out loud and would have most likely started taunting Lorien for giving him such a chance.

It's just that now, Sukuna didn't have time to even enjoy the moment, not to mention taunting anyone else.

'I must be quick, I won't get another chance like this.' Thought Sukuna as his brain and senses worked overtime to gather as much information as they could.

'GREAT!! This is exactly what I was looking for!'

From the newfound method of cutting space to the mysterious anti-immortality power he previously suffered from, Sukuna kept disintegrating the information he gathered into bits and pieces.

Doing so, he then absorbed and digested it as he merged it into his own CT pushing his powers into a higher level.

'GREAT!! This is exactly what I was looking for!'

'All the above powers are basically methods used to target very specific concepts.'

'Based on them, I am able to copy the way they function, however, I still can't find the general method used to target all concepts.'

'It feels like something is missing and I can't put my finger on it...'

Thinking of this, Sukuna couldn't help but get irritated as he sensed that he was just one step away from reaching a brand new level.

'Damn it! this is very irritating! what is it!!'

However, what Sukuna didn't know was that all he was seeing was nothing but a mirage in a desert as the level he sensed was most likely the [Law Level] which is nearly impossible for him to reach in his current state without anything unexpected happening.

'What is missing...'

Thinking of this issue for a while, Sukuna's eyes couldn't help but suddenly jump toward Yuta who was visibly getting stronger by the second.

'All these powers originated from one person, so his power system might help me!'

Contemplating this, Sukuna's eyes visibly became more erratic as he waited impatiently for the kid to wake up.

Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.

'Don't mess it up for me kid!'

'Wake up quickly before that bastard notices that something is wrong.'

However, just as Sukuna thought of this, a cracking noise suddenly echoed across the shattered cemetery.

*Crack*

*Crack*

'Huh? Could it be?'

Just then, following the cracking noise, Sukuna suddenly felt his shackles loosening as he restored control of his body.

'A coincidence?'

Feeling confused, Sukuna didn't expect that his wish could be immediately fulfilled, it was as if a higher being listened to his prayers and responded to him.

'This...'

Still feeling a bit startled, Sukuna completely reacted only after feeling a sudden wave of unknown power pash over his body prompting him to look in Yuta's direction.

Looking there, Sukuna immediately noticed Yuta's now opened eyes looking coldly in his direction.

'His presence...'

'It's very muffled, he's very hard to detect.'

'Moreover, while I can't tell how strong he currently is, I can at least tell that he's much stronger.'

'However, this doesn't matter much as I'll end it quickly!'

'Additionally, this is a good opportunity to test the new CT applications.'

Not wasting any moment, Sukuna didn't hold back any power as he launched his CT toward Yuta as he targeted the 'Space' he was in.

*Swish*

*Bzzz*

In an instant, an invisible wave of cutting power reached Yuta before anyone could react.

This sudden turn of events caused those watching from all over the world to hold their breaths in anticipation as they waited for Yuta's reaction.

"We've been waiting for a long time, please, don't die like that!"

"At least make it entertaining!"

"Huh? Are we now getting entertained by people's deaths?"

"Honestly... I don't care anymore, I've long since started considering this as a movie, otherwise, I would go crazy."

"...You should face reality..."

"..."

*Bzzzzz*

However, just then as this small debate started heating up, something unexpected happened which caused both parties to fall silent including Sukuna himself.

*Swish*

At that moment, just as Sukuna's attack was about to land on its target, an identical slash suddenly manifested itself from the unknown blocking Sukuna's slash midair and causing both attacks to dissipate.

However, as they did so, they still left a small spatial sca which quickly got closed by the world's corrective force as proof of their prior existence.

"Was that?!"

"Did his copying power improve?"

Immediately realizing what happened, Sukuna instantly became serious as he realized that something was wrong with his opponent.

'Not only was my CT copied, but even my proficiency...'

Thinking of this, Sukuna immediately understood that different from what he thought, this would actually be a hard battle.

'It's all about experience now, however, there is still something I need to test before that...'

It's just that as Sukuna was preparing himself, Yuta who had just woken up was looking around and stretching as it felt like it was decades since he started walking the Dream Path.

'Ahh~~'

'Getting attacked as soon as I wake up, no honor it seems!'

'However, speaking of waking up, how long has it been? I can't tell!'

'Time as a concept is very vague in that place, I now feel a bit disconnected from reality.'

'However...It's worth it!'

Clenching his fists and feeling the immense power hidden within, Yuta then turned his attention to the Domain which had passively manifested itself from his body and covered a large radius around him within it.

'This is...'

'So there are actually modes to it...'

'I didn't know that!'

'Passive Covering, Open Domain, and Closed Domain, this Dream Path is really comprehensive!'

'With this, I am confident in killing him!'
