Chapter 221: World Destroying Serpent

The fiery tornadoes in the sky barged in rather unceremoniously between the pair of prehistoric titans before crashing into Yamata no Orochi.

The Hundred Tornado Technique was Ikkaku's most powerful attack, and its power had been drastically enhanced by Fire Elemental's flames.

Even so, the enormous fiery tornadoes were only able to lightly scorch a part of Yamata no Orochi's body. Having only just been invoked, Yamata no Orochi had been rather groggy and disoriented, but it was completely woken up by the searing pain, and it looked up at the sky with all eight of its heads in unison before opening its mouths to unleash a barrage of different attacks.

Yamata no Orochi possessed eight heads and eight tails, all of which shared the same body, and it resembled an enormous mountain.

Its eight heads weren't all identical. Instead, one had a horn, one possessed a disproportionately large mouth, one resembled a dragon's head...

Not only were the eight heads all different in physical appearance, the attacks that they were capable of unleashing were also different.

For example, the horned head was capable of breathing fire, the dragon head specialized in wind-based attacks, and the head with the disproportionately large mouth could release toxic mist.

The eight heads were unleashing eight types of different attacks, consisting of wind, fire, thunder, lightning, earth, poison, ghost, and ice. Their attacks filled the entire sky like doomsday fireworks, striking the beholder with a sense of awe and horror.

In the face of the all-encompassing barrage of attacks, Ikkaku was almost completely powerless to resist, only able to ward off Yamata no Orochi's abilities for a short while with his fiery tornadoes before part of his body was sealed in ice.

Immediately thereafter, he was beset by lightning and toxic mist, while malicious spirits swirled around him, and in the end, he was impaled by a series of stone spears. Within mere moments, a combatant who ranked in the top half of the S tier had been driven to the brink of death by the almighty Yamata no Orochi.



Upon witnessing Yamata no Orochi's terrifying display of power, Clown immediately concealed itself and vanished into thin air.

When fused with Clown, Adam's powers were only roughly on par with Ikkaku's. In fact, Ikkaku's offensive prowess currently exceeded Adam's due to the fact that he was fused with Fire Elemental, and even he had sustained severe injuries from that wave of attacks, so Adam was most likely going to suffer the same fate if he were to remain out in the open.

Yamata no Orochi's attacks encompassed an enormous area, so it didn't matter how many clones Clown could conjure up as they would all be caught in the scope of the attacks.

In the face of this legendary serpent, Nie Yiyi's psychic body was beginning to waver. This was a sign that her confidence had taken a significant hit. After noticing this, she forcibly suppressed the feelings of fear and inferiority that were rising up in her heart as she rushed away for cover. She knew that there was no way that she would've been able to play any part in a battle of this caliber.

All of the remaining combatants immediately fled away from Yamata no Orochi, desperately trying to open up some distance between themselves and the fearsome monster.

Even everyone on the second battlefield in the distance had stopped what they were doing. Eyeless and his six assailants had all turned to direct their attention toward Yamata no Orochi.

How could an adapter of her level be capable of invoking such a fearsome creature?

Eyeless was incredulous at what he was "seeing", and unlike everyone else, who was trying to avoid Yamata no Orochi at all costs, he was struck by the urge to engage it in battle.

Yamata no Orochi was a world destroyer in Japanese folklore, and it had thoroughly astonished everyone with its incredible display of power. Everyone was frantically fleeing and retreating, but there was one exception in the form of Diana.

Diana had been completely consumed by her rage, to the point that felt no fear or intimidation in Yamata no Orochi's presence. Her gaze was focused entirely on Oni no Miko, and there was nothing but vengeful fury burning in her eyes.

She spread her massive wings and swooped down upon Yamata no Orochi as she released another draconic breath. The combination of black flames and corrosive acid raised a flurry of crackling sparks, successfully attracting Yamata no Orochi's attention.

Thus, the battle between the pair of titanic monsters officially commenced with that blast of black flames.

Perhaps Yamata no Orochi's enormous size made it impossible for it to evade the oncoming pillar of flames, or it simply didn't regard the attack as a threat. In any case, it made no attempt to take evasive measures as it fought back in direct retaliation.

The same attacks that had been used against Ikkaku were unleashed once again as Yamata no Orochi's eight heads displayed their formidable power in unison.

The first attack to reach Diana was the rumbling thunder, which was a sound-based attack.

An explosive thunderclap rang out beside Diana's ears, unleashing powerful shockwaves and soundwaves that instantly stunned the giant dragon, striking her with a moment of disorientation.

It was also during this brief lapse that she was struck by bolts of lightning and a barrage of stone spears, while malicious spirits surged around her body and her wings were frozen in ice.

As a result, she began to fall out of the sky in an unsteady manner, but during her descent, she returned to her senses, and with a thunderous roar, she dispelled all of the ice and malicious spirits around her body.

Even so, in the wake of this barrage of attacks from Yamata no Orochi, a large section of her black scales had been destroyed, and the injuries that she had sustained certainly weren't insignificant.

However, Yamata no Orochi hadn't survived the clash entirely unscathed, either. As the pillar of black flames struck Yamata no Orochi alongside the corrosive acid, the two reacted to result in a violent explosion.

The corrosive acid ate through its scales, while the flames scorched its skin and flesh, revealing large sections of its skeleton underneath. Fortunately for Yamata no Orochi, its body was sufficiently enormous for it to weather the storm.

Even though Diana's draconic breath had burned away around seven to eight meters of its skin and flesh, that was only roughly the equivalent of a human losing around an inch of skin. It wasn't an insignificant injury, but it was still bearable.

However, Diana wasn't about to let Yamata no Orochi off the hook so easily.

After steadying herself, Diana rose up into the air once again, ignoring all of the oncoming attacks as she unleashed her draconic technomancy, conjuring up countless balls of black light in the air, all of which rained down upon Yamata no Orochi in a frenzy.

The attacks were extremely concentrated, and Yamata no Orochi's enormous body made it a huge target.

Almost every single one of those black balls of light struck Yamata no Orochi with devastating force, inflicting even more damage upon it than the pillar of black flames.

Of course, that also drew even fiercer retaliation from Yamata no Orochi.

As a legendary deity said to be capable of destroying the entire world, Yamata no Orochi naturally possessed some extremely powerful abilities. In fact, every single one of its heads was capable of unleashing a devastating forbidden technique.

For example, the earth-attribute head was capable of triggering a cataclysmic earthquake powerful enough to destroy the entire Japanese island of Honshu.

At the moment, it was the ice-attribute head that was unleashing its forbidden technique, and as it did so, the air temperature in the entire basin was beginning to rapidly plummet, and before long, the temperature had dropped to close to -200°C.

Under these glacial temperatures, the entire area was frozen solid, and all of the moisture in the air had been frozen solid, and the entire basin was made to resemble an enormous freezer unit.n0vεlUsB.c0M
