Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Three Suns
Yoriichi was confident he could slice through 2,000 pieces of flesh in an instant.
But this time, there were simply too many.
Ren Asakura watched with a slight smile.
"Finally, it's my turn. Time for these little demons to take a sunbath."
As Muzan's flesh fragments scattered in all directions, a single ray of sunlight suddenly shone down from the sky.
The moment the flesh touched the light, it turned to ash.
Sunlight… at night?
The light drove away the darkness.
The temperature began to rise rapidly.
Just moments ago, the night air had been cold.
Now, it was blistering hot.
Three suns hung high in the sky.
This reality-defying sight left everyone stunned—Muzan included.
To make sure every last demon in the world got a proper sunbath, Ren Asakura had casually moved over three suns from a neighboring star system.
The direct sunlight from these three suns was more than ten times stronger than the usual daylight.
And it possessed terrifying penetrative power.
Muzan instantly retracted all of his flesh and transformed into a massive, grotesque infant.
But even that couldn't withstand the direct exposure of three suns.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of his body disintegrated.
There was no time to run.
In the final moments before his death, Muzan reached out a trembling hand toward Yoriichi, his eyes filled with unwillingness and despair.
But before he could even touch Yoriichi—
He crumbled to dust.
Just like that, he was gone.
Even in the farthest corners of the world, countless demons were wiped out by the sudden arrival of the three suns.
Only a handful survived, those who had been fortunate enough to hide deep in the shadows.
Ren Asakura waved his hand lightly.
And just like that, the three suns vanished.
This was the power of a god.
With a single thought, the heavens and earth could be rewritten.
The three suns had appeared and disappeared in no more than five seconds.
But in that fleeting moment, the world had witnessed an earth-shattering miracle.
Three Suns in the Sky.
For the people of this world, it was an unimaginable, overwhelming spectacle.
Kagaya Ubuyashiki, still in shock, stared at the screen displaying Muzan's complete and utter demise.
His voice trembled with emotion.
"It's over!"
"Yeah, it's over."
Ren Asakura smiled slightly.
This was fun.
Of course, if he really wanted to kill Muzan, he didn't need to do it this way.
But where's the fun in that?
This way, he got to fully showcase his power while also helping his group members.
It felt great.
In his own world, a mundane reality with no supernatural beings, Ren Asakura always had to suppress his abilities.
But here, he could unleash them freely.
And he loved it.
Meanwhile, the group chat had exploded.
[Yoriichi]: "Group leader, was that your doing? Why did three suns suddenly appear in the sky?"
[Lu Mingfei]: "I was in the middle of fighting a demon, and then—boom! They all just dropped dead! This blinding light came down from the sky, wiped out the night, and when I looked up—THREE suns! My eyes nearly burned out! *shocked face terrified face*"
[Minato Namikaze]: "???"
[Saitama]: "Three suns in the sky?"
[Lu Mingfei]: "Yep! Huge and blinding."
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "Didn't I mention earlier that the little demons needed a sunbath? The sky looked way too dark for it, so I borrowed three stars from a neighboring star system!"
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "I was actually worried that one wouldn't be enough, so I just brought all three over."
[Lu Mingfei]: "I don't think I'll ever understand the world of the almighty…"
[Yoriichi]: "Under the light of the three suns, Muzan Kibutsuji was reduced to ashes, and all the demons around him are dead as well. Miss Tamayo is safe, right?"
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "Don't worry, I told you no one would be sacrificed. As long as they are on our side, no one will die."
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "With these three suns, I believe most of the demons are gone. Most demons are active in the dark of night, and this sudden sunlight would have caught them completely off guard."
[Yoriichi]: "It's over! Thank you so much, Group Leader. If it weren't for you, we don't know how many more innocent people would have died in this world."
[Lu Mingfei]: "Wait, I think I heard about the Trisolaris system on a science channel. That's four light-years away from us!"
[Lu Mingfei]: "Group Leader is amazing, Group Leader is generous, Group Leader is definitely the strongest!"
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "You're going to make me embarrassed if you keep saying that."
[Saitama]: "Light-years? That's so far!"
[Minato Namikaze]: "What is a light-year?"
[Yoriichi]: "I don't get it either, let the Group Leader explain."
Minato Namikaze and Yoriichi didn't understand the power of science yet, so they weren't sure what a light-year meant.
Saitama, despite being invincible, had once been an ordinary office worker before he became unbeatable. He had studied and knew what a light-year was.
Lu Mingfei, being a modern person, also knew what a light-year was.
At this point, Lu Mingfei started explaining.
[Lu Mingfei]: "Well, a light-year is a unit of length. It has to do with the universe. The world we live in is actually just a speck of dust in the vast universe. When we look at the stars, most of them are actually worlds just like the one beneath our feet, because the universe is so vast, that's why we use light-years as a unit of length."
[Lu Mingfei]: "A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year."
[Lu Mingfei]: "That's roughly 9.46 trillion kilometers."
[Minato Namikaze]: "Wait, let me calculate that!"
[Saitama]: "That does seem pretty accurate."
[Yoriichi]: "That's so far!"
[Lu Mingfei]: "That's why I said Group Leader is amazing!"
[Lu Mingfei]: "He's ridiculously amazing!"
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "You're too kind! This is just a simple application of spatial rules. Actually, once you reach the Dao stage, you can cultivate your own rules. The Three Thousand Daos all have their unique characteristics. The Dao of spatial rules—once you have a location, you can just teleport there, like Flying Thunder God's technique."
[Minato Namikaze]: "But with a distance that far, I wouldn't even be able to sense Flying Thunder God's marks. How strong must your sensory abilities be?"
[Group Leader Ren Asakura]: "This is where the unique spiritual power of cultivators comes in. When you reach a certain realm, you can project your spirit outward. Through special techniques, you can train your spiritual power to form divine consciousness. Divine consciousness acts like eyes, allowing you to see everything clearly. Once you reach the highest level, you can even sense the composition and arrangement of molecules and particles."
[Lu Mingfei]: "I want to cultivate and have boundless power."
