Chapter 217 Cutting the Sea with One Sword
Shuten-doji and Ibaraki-doji stared with wide eyes, looking at the giant creature Yamata-no-Orochi that gradually emerged from the depths of the turbulent sea in amazement. They secretly complained in their hearts, and they had never expected that Yamata-no-Orochi would be so impatient to take action. There is no doubt that this ferocious giant snake must have ulterior motives when it came this time. If it is said that its purpose has nothing to do with Lingyuan, it is simply a fantasy and a foolish dream!
"Sir Lingyuan, please forgive me for speaking frankly. The current situation is extremely urgent, and we may not be able to withstand the fierce attack of the Yamata-no-Orochi with our strength. It would be best if we stay and fight this beast to the death, and you take the opportunity to leave quickly!" Shuten-doji's face was as solemn as iron, his brows were furrowed into the shape of a "川", and he looked directly into Lingyuan's eyes with worry. Deep in his eyes, there seemed to be thousands of emotions surging and entangled.
She knew very well in her heart that after the thrilling fight just now, Ling Yuan was probably already seriously depleted of internal energy. How could it be easy to confront the Yamata no Orochi head-on at this moment? The chances of winning were slim!
At this critical moment of life and death, ensuring Ling Yuan's safety is the top priority! You know, this strange man who dares to challenge the gods is the last hope of fighting against the awakening of the gods, and there must be no mistakes! So Shuten Douji made a decision without hesitation: he stepped forward and took the risk to delay the Yamata no Orochi, even at the cost of his own life, just to win that fleeting chance for Ling Yuan to escape...
Facing Shuten-doji's proposal, Ling Yuan was slightly stunned at first, but soon regained his composure. Then, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, outlining a smile as warm as the spring breeze. He slowly raised his left hand and gently placed it on Shuten-doji's forehead, as if to use this warm touch to soothe her inner anxiety.
As his fingers gently stroked, Shuten-doji's frown gradually relaxed, and his tense expression also relaxed. At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and everything around him became unimportant. Only the care and comfort given by the man in front of him made people feel warm.
"Leave it to me!" Ling Yuan said softly, his tone firm and steady.
He raised his hand gently and rubbed Shuten's frown, as if to smooth out all his worries. Then, his figure was like a shining meteor, cutting through the sky and falling straight down. At this moment, he happened to encounter eight hideous giant snake heads that slowly rose from the turbulent sea.
The body of the Yamata no Orochi was so huge that its head alone was like a towering island, inspiring awe. It held its head high, its deep purple eyes flashing with a hint of coldness, and locked onto Ling Yuan, who was floating down towards it.
"You insignificant mortal, how dare you be so bold as to challenge the dignity of God and go against us? Are you ready to die?" The Yamata no Orochi opened its huge mouth with bloody fangs and let out a roar that shook the earth. The sound was like thunder and shocked people. At the same time, it roared in a low and hoarse voice, as if it wanted to use this method to intimidate the opponent who didn't know how to live or die.
Facing such a terrifying existence, Ling Yuan was extremely calm and composed. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a cold smile, and there seemed to be no emotion in his eyes. He tightly grasped the Seven Sin Purifying Thunders in his hand, and instantly activated the Herrscher of Thunder core in the weapon. In an instant, the dazzling purple lightning burst out, tightly wrapping him up. At this moment, Ling Yuan was like the god of thunder, majestic and awe-inspiring, and people dared not look directly at him.
Shuten and Ibaraki stared in amazement at the powerful aura that Ling Yuan was exuding from below. The pressure was even more terrifying than when they had sparred with each other before. Purple lightning danced wildly around them, entwining around Ling Yuan's body like a dragon. Even though they were far away, they could still clearly feel the strong sense of paralysis in the air.
At this moment, a sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded, and a beautiful figure appeared beside the two of them like a ghost. A beautiful woman with nine tails was looking at Ling Yuan who was confronting the Yamata no Orochi below in amazement.
This woman has long chestnut curly hair and a pair of small and exquisite fox ears on both sides of her head. Her face is so beautiful that it can be called a stunning beauty. She is wearing a loose kimono, casually draped over her body, and her snow-white skin and graceful figure are looming, which makes people can't help but imagine. Her slender and straight legs are standing in the air in a pair of wooden clogs, holding a folding fan in her hand. Behind her, nine huge chestnut fox tails are spread out, adding a touch of charm and enchantment to her whole person.
"Tamamonomae? Why are you, a woman, here?" Ibaraki Douji frowned, staring at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and he questioned her in a harsh tone.
Tamamonomae rolled her eyes in disdain, but her gaze never left Ling Yuan below. Her beautiful face was full of surprise and confusion: "What on earth happened? Why would Yamata no Orochi confront him?"
Shuten-douji shook his head slightly, stretched out his hand to push away Ibaraki-douji who tried to drive Tamamonomae away, and helplessly told her the whole story.
After hearing this, Tamamonomae's originally tense brows gradually relaxed. At this moment, she realized that the human that these big monsters wanted to form an alliance with was definitely not an ordinary person. Even a powerful one like Yamata no Orochi would probably find it difficult to defeat him in a short time.
The Yamata no Orochi stared at Ling Yuan, who remained silent, with anger flashing in its eyes due to being ignored. Its huge body suddenly moved, and its eight huge heads were raised high at the same time. It opened its bloody mouth, which was big enough to swallow a whole person, and colorful rays of light gathered in its mouth. Then, a colorful light cannon gushed out towards Ling Yuan like a volcanic eruption.
Ling Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he raised the Seven Sin Purifying Thunders in his hand high up, carrying with them the terrifying lightning. His eyes turned purple like thunder. A purple ring appeared behind him, and patterns of collapse energy spread from his chest to his entire body, and his aura rose to a terrifying height.
The Seven Thunders of Purification suddenly slashed down, and the terrifying purple blade light with thunder fell towards the Yamata no Orochi. For a moment, the Yamata no Orochi felt an extremely terrifying aura coming, and the light cannon ejected from its mouth was split into two under the purple blade light.
Yamata no Orochi suddenly felt something was wrong and just as it was about to turn around and escape into the sea, the blade light instantly caught up with its body. A dazzling purple light shot up into the sky, instantly engulfing the huge body of Yamata no Orochi. The huge snake body was almost instantly annihilated by the blade light.
After a long time, the light faded, and Shuten, Ibaraki and Tamamonomae looked at the sea. In an instant, the three of them opened their mouths in sync, with shock written all over their faces.
A huge chasm appeared above the sea surface, and sea water continued to flow back into the chasm. The cracks on the sea surface spread for thousands of miles, as if the sea was cut off by Ling Yuan's knife.
