Granite Blast

Granite Blast (グラニテブラスト) is an extension technique derived from Ryu Ishigori's Cursed Energy Discharge.

Description
Granite Blast is the most powerful and straightfoward application of cursed energy discharge. It is a long ranged, directed blast wave of highly concentrated cursed energy capable of devistating a vast area when unleashed at full power. The more cursed energy that is charged into Granite Blast, the broader its attack range becomes.

Usage
Granite Blast is Ryu's signature attack and the most used implementation of his innate technique. He used it numerous times in his battle with Yuta Okkotsu and Takako Uro. The first time he displayed the destructive force of Granite Blast is when he used it to interrupt Uro's clash with Yuta. The beam had such a wide range of destruction that it annihilated several blocks of Sendai City.

Ryu sent Yuta flying with a burst of cursed energy and then followed up by firing Granite Blast while performing cartwheel in pursuit. However, since Ryu charged the attack in a rush, this time Yuta was able to block the weaker blast with his bare hands. Ryu was able to use Granite Blast even after using domain expansion, as he is the only sorcerer that can unleash the same amount of power regardless of if his technique is active or not. This allowed him to defeat Uro and Kurourushi with Granite Blast while they were virtually defenseless.

Ryu attempted to defeat Yuta with Granite Blast as well but the young sorcerer deflected it by copying Uro's ability to manipulate space. Yuta redirected the beam back down on Ryu and defeat him with his own destructive attack.
