Tang Zheng rushed towards the stalactite in an attempt to save him.
However, just as his body rose into the air, a whooshing sound came from behind him.
He cursed inwardly and without turning his head, he stabbed with his sword.
Clang!
Sparks flew everywhere.
The War Soul Sword stabbed into the incomparably hard scales, only causing a huge head to tilt its direction slightly.
However, the other heads had already chased after him like shadows. Two bloody mouths, one above and one below, seemed to want to tear Tang Zheng into two halves.
Tang Zheng had no other choice but to save himself. The bright sword light soared into the sky.
Since the opponent's scales were so hard, he did not plan to fight head-on. Instead, he planned to use his wits. He cleverly feinted, the sword tip turned, and directly pierced towards a large eyeball.
The eyes were definitely the weakest part of a Demonic Beast, so Tang Zheng concentrated his strength and prepared to attack the eyes.
Puff!
A bloody light shot out from the eyeball. The blood was like spring water, gushing up more than a meter high.
"Roar!"
The Demonic Beast let out a heart-wrenching scream. A violent stench gushed out from its throat, causing Tang Zheng's stomach to churn. He almost vomited out the food he had last night.
▼.
However, he gritted his teeth and endured it. The War Soul Sword tried to stab forward again, but the other head had already rushed over. With a 'kacha' sound, the two fangs bit onto the War Soul Sword.
Bang!
His head fiercely swung, and Tang Zheng was like a cannonball that was sent flying, fiercely smashing into the stone wall, and tumbling down.
The Demonic Beast's screams echoed in the surroundings. It kept twisting its body. It was obviously in extreme pain. The eyeball was completely covered in blood.
This sword caused the eyeball to go blind.
"Insignificant human, I will eat you. I will swallow the powder you chewed into my stomach." A sharp voice suddenly rang out, echoing in Tang Zheng's ears.
Tang Zheng was not surprised. The other party's cultivation was so high that it was normal for him to speak human language.
Hearing the other party's words, Tang Zheng's head twitched as if he had understood something. He asked in horror, "You ate the owner of those bones?"
"Of course, it won't be long before you join them," the Demonic Beast said ruthlessly.
Tang Zheng glared at him, and his anger flared up.
He didn't have much good or bad feelings towards Demonic Beasts, but this Demonic Beast actually ate humans. That was absolutely unforgivable.
He also finally understood why those people were hung upside down in the air like pieces of bacon. It turned out that they were all food stored by the demonic beasts.
"Evil creature, what kind of Demonic Beast are you?" Tang Zheng asked angrily.
"Do you want to see my real body? Then I will fulfill your wish. " The demonic beast said proudly. In an instant, the entire cave was filled with rustling sounds, and the waves in the river grew bigger and bigger, as if many things were quietly moving.
Tang Zheng's heart tightened, and he was on full alert.
Not long after, a huge monster completely appeared from the darkness, almost filling the entire cave.
Tang Zheng's eyes gradually widened into circles as he looked at everything in front of him in disbelief. There was only one word in his mind — — ferocious!
The scene in front of him was too ferocious. If a timid person saw it, they would probably be scared to death.
Tang Zheng was experienced and knowledgeable, but he was also deeply shocked.
It turned out that his previous understanding was all wrong. The other party was not an eight-headed Demonic Beast, but a single Demonic Beast.
However, it had eight heads and eight tails. This strange combination looked ugly and ferocious.
Its entire body was black, covered with scales the size of a face, suffused with a black light. Just now, Tang Zheng's War Soul Sword was unable to break through the scales, so one could imagine how strong its defense was.
It gave people another impression that it was big. It was too big, so big that it almost filled the entire space, but there was still a part of it hidden in the darkness and the river.
This was its real body, which made people tremble with fear.
Tang Zheng had even seen the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, but the Five-clawed Golden Dragon gave people a feeling of Heaven's might. But this Demonic Beast, in addition to being ferocious, was cold, making people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave. It was a completely different feeling.
"Immortal, this looks like the legendary Yamata no Orochi." Gui Qiansui's small head suddenly came out of the backpack, looking at everything in front of him, and thoughtfully said.
"Yamata no Orochi? What's its origin? " Tang Zheng heard that the State Preceptor just called the Demonic Beast as Yamata no Orochi. He was afraid that Yamata no Orochi was its real name.
"Yamata no Orochi is a very ferocious Demonic Beast. Its body is a flood dragon, and it especially likes to eat people. Every time it eats ten thousand people, it will grow one more head and one more tail. Therefore, its strength will also increase by leaps and bounds. In order to pursue higher cultivation and strength, it ate people everywhere. Finally, it grew eight heads and eight tails. Legend has it that as long as it grows nine heads and nine tails, it can enter the dragon gate and transform into a Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon. "Gui Qiansui said tirelessly.
Only the Five-clawed Golden Dragon was imprisoned in the Imperial City, but Yamata no Orochi could transform into a Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon.
As the name suggests, it must be many times more powerful than the Five-clawed Golden Dragon.
"What? It ate tens of thousands of people and killed so many people, and it can still transform into a Dragon? "Tang Zheng was shocked and felt a chill in his heart.
When ordinary people mentioned the famous ancient generals, they would often say that they killed thousands of people, but compared to Yamata no Orochi, they paled in comparison.
Not only did it kill people, but it also ate people. It swallowed the bones into its stomach, and it ate tens of thousands of people.
This was simply an astronomical number, and it was enough to show its deranged nature. For cultivation and strength, it had completely lost its nature.
In Hua Xia's legends, the dragon had always been a righteous image. It was a sacred symbol. For such an evil demon beast to be able to transform into a Dragon, it was like a big stone pressing down on one's chest, making one unable to breathe.
"Yes, Exalted Immortal. Although it had killed so many people, it still had a chance to transform into a dragon. Back then, it was only a step away from becoming a Nine-clawed Golden Dragon. When it ate the eighty thousandth person, its ninth head and ninth tail immediately grew out.
"At that time, it was precisely the time when it transformed into a Dragon. It was also the time when it was at its weakest. A very powerful cultivator appeared and fought with it for eighty-one days. In the end, the newly grown ninth head and ninth tail were cut off, and from then on, its hope of transforming into a Dragon was cut off."
"Who was so powerful?"
Tang Zheng could not help but have a kind of worship. This cultivator was so great that he could fight against such a powerful evil beast by himself.
There was no doubt that if Orochi really transformed into a Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon, with its cruel nature, it would definitely cause more killings.
The good deed of this xiuzhe had saved countless lives.
Gui Qiansui shook his head: "I don't know who this cultivator is. Later on, no one knew the whereabouts of Orochi. Some people said it was dead, but no one expected it to survive and hide here."
Tang Zheng gradually became enlightened.
No wonder Orochi appeared in the Island nation. At that time, the Island nation was a barren land, and no demon beast or cultivator came here.
In order to avoid being hunted down, Orochi crossed the ocean and came to the Island nation. That was why it survived until today.
"Since it was only one step away from becoming a Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon, does that mean its cultivation and strength are still ridiculously high?" Tang Zheng suddenly realized a serious problem.
"If it was really so powerful, it would be invincible in this world. With its cruel nature and the tyrannical nature of the Island nation, it would be the end of the world."
"No, when his ninth head and ninth tail were chopped off, most of his power went down the drain. So, its strength was greatly reduced. Otherwise, it would not have to escape to this barren land. "Gui Qiansui explained.
Tang Zheng heaved a sigh of relief as he thought that it was a close call. All of this was thanks to the powerful cultivator from back then. If he knew who this person was, then Tang Zheng would definitely thank him.
"However, I feel that its strength is still very strong. According to the legend, its strength should not be so strong." Gui Qiansui said with some doubts.
Tang Zheng had an idea, and said: "You mean it has recovered its strength?"
"Yes, and it has recovered a lot."
"Did it eat a lot of people again?" Tang Zheng felt a chill in his bones.
Gui Qiansui hesitated, and said: "It's possible."
Tang Zheng turned his head and stared at Orochi. He felt more and more disgusted. He did not know how many people were buried in its stomach.
The conversation between the two was heard by Orochi and the State Preceptor. Orochi twisted its huge body, and looked at Gui Qiansui covetously, and said: "You have heard of my deeds, not simple. Humph, but you know it too late. Now I have recovered half of my strength, and there are no powerful cultivators in this world. So, no one can stop me. "
"I want to eat more people. Moreover, I found that martial artists and cultivators are the most delicious and can increase my strength the most. Therefore, I will eat all the martial artists and cultivators in the world who don't listen to my orders. That way, my strength will recover faster."
Orochi's eight big heads were raised high, ferocious and crazy.
Tang Zheng trembled in fear when he heard this. He glanced at the Imperial Preceptor from afar and said with disdain: "Imperial Preceptor, you are really crazy. You are using your own people to feed this evil beast and help it recover its strength. You are helping the tyrant. There will be a day when you will suffer the consequences of your own actions."
The State Preceptor laughed crazily: "Who said I use my own people to feed Orochi? I will not be so stupid. "
Tang Zheng's face changed slightly: "Then where did you find so many people?"
"Oh, of course, it is Hua Xia people. There are so many Hua Xia people. Isn't it a small matter to sacrifice tens of thousands of people? Hasn't your country always wanted to control the population? I am doing you a big favor. "The State Preceptor said ferociously.
"You … are crazy." Tang Zheng was furious. The State Preceptor wanted to kill Hua Xia people, and it seemed that many Hua Xia people had been buried in Orochi's stomach.
No!
Tang Zheng suddenly realized a problem. If so many Hua Xia people disappeared for no reason, there must be some news.
