Bronze door through time and space

Chapter 871 Destiny is mine
A deadly scar appeared on the beautiful and exquisite Takamagahara, and it grew deeper and deeper. This was because Yan Xu was constantly integrating the relevant laws of the DC Universe, which made the toxicity stronger and stronger, as if assimilating everything. Thick venom gathered more and more, churning in the deep valley, and with Xiang Liu's footsteps, it turned into a flood and spread to both sides. Wherever it passed, grass and trees did not grow, and everything was turned into a dead land and poisonous swamp, with no possibility of recovery. But for Xiang Liu, this was his own domain.

Given enough time, Yan Xu could transform the entire Takamagahara into his own divine kingdom. Therefore, the great gods of Japan could no longer sit still and rushed to stop him. If they didn't come soon, they would lose their home.

The dark green poisonous gas grew thicker and thicker, and even powerful Japanese deities would be dissolved by it. However, a golden light broke through Xiangliu's poisonous gas circle. It was Takemikazuchi, who was rushing over on rolling thunderballs.

Takemikazuchi is one of the few gods in the Japanese pantheon known for his fighting prowess. He is a god of thunder, a god of war, and a god of military might. His sword, Futsu-no-Mitama, is a divine sword second only to the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi and the Ama-no-Kurakumo-no-Tsurugi, which is why it was able to break through the poisonous fog. He came here to protect Takamagahara and to prove his bravery.

"Orochi, the one who took your head is Takemikazuchi of Takamagahara!" Takemikazuchi's voice was like thunder, and the divine sword in his hand turned into lightning, striking Xiangliu's neck hard.

Because it has nine heads, its neck appears relatively long and thin, but that's no excuse for being fragile.

After receiving the blessing of the DC Universe Laws, Xiang Liu's immortality gradually transformed into immortality, almost reaching the level of a Golden Immortal.

When the divine sword was deflected, the raging lightning only flickered weakly on the scales before being completely extinguished. Takemikazuchi realized that there was a big problem. He had been fooled by that woman Amaterasu. What, Susanoo can do it? You can do it too? What a load of rubbish!
Xiangliu revealed a ferocious smile as he faced the head of Takemikazuchi, then opened his mouth, and venom transformed into countless purplish-black snake heads, tearing at him like a tidal wave.

"Baka!" Faced with the venom capable of killing Takamagahara at the level of rules, even Takemikazuchi dared not be careless in the slightest. He desperately dodged by controlling his lightning, while simultaneously releasing lightning to try and eliminate the venom. However, Xiangliu's venom was not ordinary venom, but a kind of supernatural power. When the lightning struck it, it was actually dissolved by the venom. Startled, Takemikazuchi dared not linger any longer and desperately retreated, trying to escape. After all, besides being a god of war, he was also a god of military strategy and had a brain. Therefore, he was well aware of the importance of strategic retreat. But while entering was easy, leaving was not so easy.

How vast must the poisonous fog covering Xiangliu's body, which is a thousand miles long, be? And within the range of the poisonous fog, everything will be dissolved, whether it is grass, trees, soil, rocks, divine power, divine body, or even space itself, all of which will be corroded. How could Takemikazuchi escape?

Within the poisonous fog, Takemikazuchi, who wields thunder, now resembles a moth caught in a spiderweb, unable to break free. He has even become tainted by the poisonous gas, and dark green patterns are spreading across his indestructible divine armor, which is beginning to decay.

Takemikazuchi's expression changed drastically. His divine body was not as sturdy as his divine armor, so he could no longer hold back his divine power. He released a powerful divine lightning bolt that tore open a gap, and his divine sword, Futsu-no-Mitama, hummed in the lightning. He slammed it heavily into Sōryū's scales. He was going to take another gamble. If he won, he would have everything!

A thick, viscous current seeped into the gaps in the scales, making Yan Xu feel a tingling sensation, and then... it stopped.

"Quite interesting, then stay." As soon as Yan Xu finished speaking, the surrounding poisonous mist turned into chains that tightly bound Takemikazuchi, causing the lightning in his chest to tremble and his vision to become blurred with blood. He immediately regretted his decision.

They refuse to retreat when they should, and still try to fight back. This is an old problem of Japan. Even Takemikazuchi couldn't escape this damned fate.

Enveloped in poisonous mist, Takemikazuchi roared in anger. His inner resentment led him to create a miracle. He broke the chains on his right arm, as if possessed by the spirit of Fifty-Six. He raised his divine sword and tried to fight again, but his divine power was constantly corroded by the poison, and even the original power that supported him to become the Thunder God was disappearing.

Ultimately, the rational instinct for survival prevailed over the impulsive gamble. Takemikazuchi decisively withdrew his divine power, wrapping himself up like a dumpling to buy time. At the same time, he cursed the idiots who had encouraged him to rush in, and complained about why those damned fools hadn't come to his rescue yet, especially that bitch Amaterasu. If she hadn't praised him so highly, he wouldn't have acted so impulsively. He was a war god, not a brainless god of war. Rushing in without understanding anything was simply awful.
Even as Takemikazuchi regretted his actions, Yan Xu continued walking, because his attention had never been on the other party, especially when he felt a kind of divine mandate bestowed upon him, which focused his energy on that aspect. Whether in the East or the West, gods would encounter the crisis of world-ending beasts, which was also a kind of destiny. However, most of the time, mindless beasts would be suppressed and killed in various bizarre ways, and it was unknown where the destiny of world-ending destruction came from.

But Yan Xu is different. He not only has brains, but also a level of power that surpasses his current abilities.

Yan Xu's current level of cultivation is so high that he can definitely rank among the top five in the DC Universe after God's departure. Moreover, he will continue to improve rapidly as he becomes more complete. Therefore, he keenly sensed that the fortune of the gods of Japan hidden in Takamagahara was gathering on him.

This situation shouldn't have happened, but the gods of the East Sea initially mistook Xiangliu for Yamata no Orochi. And belief is a kind of power, not to mention that the belief was made by a group of gods. Therefore, the remaining destiny belonging to Yamata no Orochi fell upon Yan Xu.

Having received the corresponding destiny, he became entangled with the gods of Japan, which is why Yan Xu devoured everything of the gods during the slaughter of them.

Sensing that the fortunes of the gods hidden in Takamagahara were constantly being lost, and that Takemikazuchi was even more hopeless, Amaterasu was anxious. But no matter how anxious she was, she dared not rush forward. Otherwise, why didn't she appear when Yamata no Orochi was rampaging? So she could only hold her nose and call out to Susanoo, who had run off to Ashihara Province to drink and make merry.

"This is not the Yamata no Orochi at all, but the ancient ferocious beast Xiangliu from the East!" Susanoo, who had heard that the Yamata no Orochi had been resurrected, rushed over with the Totsuka Blade. Upon seeing Xiangliu, he didn't even dare to gasp for fear of being poisoned. He said to Amaterasu with a solemn expression.

"Whatever it is, it is killing Takamagahara and destroying the foundation of the gods of Japan," Amaterasu said coldly.

Japan is inherently disadvantaged, with limited land and a small population. Although it has gathered some fortune by relying on the eight million demons and gods it has been promoting, it is like building a tower out of sand, unable to withstand the storms. Therefore, it needs Takamagahara to suppress its fortune. Now that Takamagahara is being taken over by Xiangliu, the gods of Japan, having lost their foundation, may fall from the divine realm. Thus, Susanoo is forced to solve the problem.

"Save Takemikazuchi first. I need helpers and divine artifacts." Susanoo is reckless, not stupid. He used tricks to defeat Orochi back then, employing both wine and women. Now, facing the even stronger Susanoo, he definitely can't win alone. So, he needs helpers, divine artifacts, and preferably, women.

However, considering Amaterasu's temperament, Susanoo abandoned the last idea.

Knowing the situation was critical, Amaterasu used the Yata no Kagami (Eight-Span Mirror) to unleash the powerful energy of the sun god, carving a passage through the thick poisonous fog. This allowed Susanoo to enter and also saved Takemikazuchi, who was turning dark green.

The two gods of the Japanese pantheon, renowned for their fighting prowess, each wield a divine sword. With the blessing of Amaterasu, they unleash powerful solar energy, preventing them from being harmed by the poisonous mist.

However, the situation did not change much. They needed stronger power to break the deadlock, and this important task fell on Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi. Each of them held a divine artifact and accumulated divine power, preparing to create an opportunity for Susanoo and Takemikazuchi.
