"In the aftermath of destruction, one finds not only corpses, but the remnants of a soul."

The room was wafting with fear and despair, its air thick with the smell of decay and the pungent odor of blood.

Dozens of bodies lay on the floor. Blood had pooled around them, making sticky puddles the reflected the dim light in the room.

These corpses, once full of life, were slowly being chewed up by the monsters crawling around, crunching sounds emerging as the monsters took bites out of their flesh and bones.

There was an uncanny stillness in the room. Everyone was standing with their eyes widened, staring at the figure of the Centipede King.

Just a few moments ago, Sukuna had jumped into its mouth.

The body of the king was moving around, making grinding sounds on the cold stone floor.

Every single movement of its body sent tremors around the whole room, causing the dead bodies to move slightly.

Inside the King's body, there was Sukuna in an extremely uncomfortable position as the creature's muscles threatened to crush him alive.

Despite all this, there was a twisted grin on his face. He had planned the end of this monster.

Sukuna could feel the centipede's heart beating, sending a light vibration throughout its body.

Suddenly, the centipede started to thrash around as it felt the temperature inside its body getting higher.

A fire formed in the centipede's body, spreading throughout its frame, consuming everything in its path.

The creature let out a loud shriek, one which chilled the hearts of the bravest people in the room.

Silvas, barely conscious, lifted his head with difficulty just to witness this spectacle.

The creature's shriek got louder as its exoskeleton started to crack. Bright, orange light escaped through the cracks as the creature thrashed around.

Through the cracks in its exoskeleton came out unrecognizable parts of its body, flowing out like hot lava.

The creature's dreadful screams only intensified as it noticed the heat converging at a single point...on Sukuna's hands.

Inside, Sukuna was enjoying the chaos he had caused, his grin widening as he readied his final attack.

The centipede's muscles convulsed, a final attempt to end Sukuna once and for all.

Sukuna's grin only widened at this discovery, his hand moving in practiced paths as he finally unleashed the firestorm.

The explosion was instant, a violent blast that tore through the centipede's body, its exoskeleton cracking further as its body swelled up.

The cracks widened as a black, thick liquid began to ooze out of them at a quick pace.

The smell of burning flesh filled the room as a sizzling sound emanated from the centipede's figure.

Ultimately, the creature's body couldn't hold on.

With a loud crack, the centipede's body burst open, a violent blast of innards and flesh.

The room was covered in hot blood, burned flesh and shattered pieces of its armor as its body was now reduced to a pool of blood.

The pieces of its armor hit the walls with a loud and shrill clank, creating cracks on the stone.
