"I'll fight it out with you!"
Yamata-no-Orochi naturally sensed the current situation. He knew very well that Tenshou and company had been ruthlessly suppressed by him, but they hadn't suffered any serious injuries. At most, they had brushed past the edge and suffered superficial injuries. They hadn't hurt their core. As for him, he had used a lot of strength to injure them. With this kind of energy exhaustion, he was soon unable to endure any longer.
Yamata-no-Orochi knew very well that the three bastards wanted to boil a frog in warm water and slowly deplete his energy. Then, when he was exhausted, they could destroy him effortlessly. Yamata-no-Orochi was furious about this, but there was nothing he could do. He also knew very well that he would do the same if it were him. However, understanding was one thing. When it happened to him, it was difficult to accept it. He couldn't help but feel anger.
This was human nature!
Yamata-no-Orochi was scheming and had to plan everything before taking action. He was an out-and-out schemer. However, as a demonic beast, he was naturally filled with hostility. Be it the Nine Neonate back then or the current Yamata. No matter how he changed, he was still him. He wouldn't change. Perhaps his methods were changing, but his personality remained the same.
Yamata-no-Orochi never compromised. If this continued, he would definitely die without a complete corpse. Rather than that, why not drag the enemy down with him? At the very least, he would make them pay a huge price.
With this thought in mind, Yamata-no-Orochi's eyes immediately turned from a ferocious scarlet to a determined blood-red. He was going to risk his life. He was going to risk his life!
"Not good!"
As the person who had been in contact with Yamata-no-Orochi the longest, Tenshou immediately sensed that something was wrong with her old partner. Without a word, she flew out without any hesitation. As for Tsukuyomi and Susanoo, her younger sister and brother, she didn't care. It was best if they died here and perished together with Yamata-no-Orochi.
Tenshou was smart, but Tsukuyomi and Susanoo weren't idiots. Although they were a beat slower, they sensed Yamata-no-Orochi's abnormality and instantly retreated. They all had ulterior motives. Even though Yamata-no-Orochi was bound to die today, they weren't willing to fully exert themselves. They only did it slowly. In this way, they wouldn't be too tired, and the danger would be reduced.
"All of you, die!"
Yamata-no-Orochi's body began to emit black energy waves that looked like flowing black flames. The energy contained within them was extremely evil.
"This damned guy, does he really not want to live anymore?"
Tenshou gritted his teeth. He didn't want Yamata no Orochi to die the most, but if she didn't do something today, her status would be threatened and her dignity would be damaged. Furthermore, she would fall out with Tsukuyomi and Susanoo. This was too disadvantageous for her. She really hoped that Yamata no Orochi would risk his life to escape, instead of risking his life to fight them to the death like now.
The black energy was like the energy of flames. It was the source energy of Yamata-no-Orochi. No matter what, once he used these, even if he didn't die, he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed. At the very least, his foundation would be damaged, and his strength would be greatly reduced. It would take a long time for him to recover. In fact, what was even more serious was that they would lose their source energy forever. At that time, unless he had a fortuitous encounter, his strength would fall forever.
"Hum …"
Space trembled. After Yamata-no-Orochi risked his life, it began to tremble crazily. The black flowing energy that resembled flames floated up and formed a huge phantom behind Yamata-no-Orochi.
The huge black monster's face couldn't be seen clearly, but its every move caused space to tremble. It was like the sound of metal shattering, shocking the world and making people lose their courage. What was most noteworthy was its appearance. They couldn't see it clearly, but there was a very special characteristic that was clearly displayed in front of everyone's eyes. That was, this thing had nine heads!
That's right, nine heads, one more than Yamata-no-Orochi's eight heads!
In this world, there was only one demonic beast with nine heads that could be named — Jiu Ying!
Many people had already said that the nine-headed monster with an indistinct face behind Yamata-no-Orochi was Jiu Ying. They were just suspecting, but Chu Rui, Tenshou, and the others who knew about Yamata-no-Orochi's origin were very sure.
Back then, Jiu Ying was defeated by his nemesis and fled thousands of miles away, coming to a desolate and undeveloped land in Dongying. At that time, he needed a lot of things to recover from his injuries, including tonics. However, one time, when he was asking for the Lady of Mysterious Yin, he was ambushed by Susanoo, who killed him and destroyed his body. Even though his consciousness escaped, his vitality was greatly damaged. In the end, he attached himself to the body of an eight-headed snake, which was Yamata-no-Orochi.
This was why Yamata-no-Orochi and Susanoo were irreconcilable enemies. If he wasn't ambushed and still had the body of Jiu Ying, he wouldn't have used a secret technique to escape to his core, which caused his injuries to be unable to heal and his cultivation to stagnate. His hope of revenge against his nemesis was dashed, and his life's greatest wish could not be realized. Not only that, but he also took away the divine sword that he made with many divine ores, which was the Kusanagi Sword of Clouds, which caused him to lose a super powerful magical treasure and his overall strength to plummet again.
Such hatred was as high as the sky, as deep as the sea, and would not rest until one of them was dead!
Now, the shadow of Jiu Ying was the soul of Yamata-no-Orochi. By summoning it, it meant that he was going to risk his life. Today, either Tenshou and the others would be finished, or he would be finished!
"Lunatic!"
Being the first to feel the cold stare of the eighteen eyes of the Jiu Ying, Susanoo's face twitched, and he cursed under his breath. He was afraid. That's right, he was afraid. At that time, he was just an existence with weak divine power. That was why he wandered the world, constantly honing himself, and gathering believers to obtain the power of faith. At that time, when he faced off against a giant like Jiu Ying, his legs turned to jelly.
Fortunately, Susanoo was luckier. At that time, Jiu Ying was careless, thinking that this was a barbarian land, and there was nothing to be afraid of. As a result, he was tricked by Susanoo to get him drunk and killed. His magical treasure was even seized by that despicable brat.
It was also because of this that he didn't gain the favor of the sun and the moon. He didn't have the divine crown like Tenshou, the Yata no Mirror, and the Yasakani no Magatama. He didn't have the mysterious eye technique like Tsukuyomi. Susanoo could also become one of the three true gods with his strength, and not because he was the younger brother of Tenshou and Tsukuyomi.
