I Am a Heroic Spirit

"Yamata no Orochi, since you have been resurrected, I will leave." Tamamonomae suddenly spoke to Yamata no Orochi.

Ten red lights shone on Tamamonomae's body. That was the gaze of Yamata no Orochi. Yamata no Orochi stared at Tamamonomae coldly but did not speak.

Huang, Abe no Haruaki, Yaobikuni, Zhang Luo and others were all shocked and looked at Tamamonomae in confusion. No one understood what Tamamonomae was thinking.

Logically speaking, now that Yamata no Orochi has been resurrected, she could just cooperate with Yamata no Orochi to kill Huang and avenge his wife's murder. However, Tamamo-no-Mae directly proposed to leave. Not to mention revenge, even Yamata no Orochi might not let her go because of her strange behavior.

Yamata no Orochi remained silent for a long time, and the others did not dare to move. Tamamonomae just stared at Yamata no Orochi, his cold expression unchanged.

-

Inside the Kamo residence, Kamo Tadayuki looked at the Yamata-no-Orochi, a towering serpent in the distance, and his heart was filled with worry.

Suddenly, He Maozhongxing felt something in his heart. He stretched out his hand to calculate, turned his head to look in the opposite direction, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

In front of Kamo's residence.

Kokarasuma's expression shifted and he stood up.

Daitenta Mitsuyo, Mikazuki Munechika, and Suzumaru Tsuneji who had just arrived also felt someone approaching, and immediately drew their swords and stood up.

"Father, what should I do?"

Mikazuki Munechika asked in a deep voice.

"Lord Shujin and Lord Kuroharuaki's orders are to keep an eye on Kamo Tadayuki."

Kokarasuma lowered his eyes and gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

"In this situation, whether Kamo Tadayuki is dead or alive, trapped or released, it no longer makes any difference."

Daiten Tai Guangyo hesitated for three seconds and spoke softly.

"Amitabha, all things are impermanent, all dharmas are without self. Father, please make your decision."

Suzumaru Tsuneji stroked the Buddhist beads and said lightly.

Xiao Wuhuan didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of struggle.

"Squeak-"

At this moment, the door of Kamo's house was opened from the inside. The sound of the door opening, which was not very noticeable during the day, seemed extremely harsh at this moment.

Kamo Tadayuki slowly walked out of the door, and Ashiya Doman and others also walked out of the darkness and surrounded the four Kokarasumas.

"It's too late."

Xiao Wuhuan raised his sword and sighed softly in front of the group of unparalleled great men.

"Then let's fight."

Mikazuki Munechika smiled faintly.

"Isn't our destiny as swords to fight? Speaking of which, after becoming Tsukumogami, we really don't live up to the name."

"...I was a tool for beheading people, yet I was actually protecting Buddhism. Ultimately, for the sake of so-called love, I abandoned my responsibility to protect Buddhism and fell to this point. Is this way of existence wrong?... Perhaps I should have died long ago. This way of existence was never meant to be... In this final battle, let me abandon everything and be willful. Amitābha... Buddha."

For the first time, Suzumaru Tsuneji took off the rosary hanging around his neck and placed it on the ground. He also untied the bracelet wrapped around the sword guard and placed it together with the rosary. He held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and indescribable violence burst out from his body.

Having lost the rosary that suppressed his anger, he returned to his true nature as a sword. He was the original Sujumaru Tsuneji.

"kill!"

With a loud shout, the bright sword light was extremely dazzling.

-

"You go."

In the end, Yamata no Orochi did not choose to keep Tamamonomae, but let her leave.

Fighting with the Nine-tailed demon with an incomplete body, even if he succeeded in killing it, he would suffer injuries that could not be ignored. The Yamata-no-Orochi had no intention of letting Huang and his group reap the benefits.

Tamamonomae smiled sweetly, and hope could be seen on her face. The nine fox tails wrapped around her, and she disappeared in an instant.

"Go! Heavenly Punishment Moon!"

At the same time that Tamamonomae disappeared, Huang immediately summoned a full moon and attacked Yamata-no-Orochi.

"The Thunder Emperor is coming!"

Abe Haruaki was a bit slow, but without hesitation, he summoned the Thunder Emperor, who had regained control, and pounced on the Yamata-no-Orochi with his fangs and claws bared...

"I'm sorry, this... is my mission!"

Yuzhuanjin ignited all the talismans and shot out the explosive magic-breaking arrow. A dazzling stream of light shot towards the center of the head of the Yamata no Orochi like a rainbow piercing the sun.

"Your life is running out."

The eight hundred nuns raised their staffs and held up the magic circle. The dark clouds above the Yamata no Orochi appeared with a tiny crack, and starlight descended from it.

"Come and taste this, the suffering from purgatory!"

Kagura summoned the souls from purgatory, and the souls stretched out their ghost hands from the ground and grabbed the Yamata-no-Orochi.

However, Zhang Luo did not have a strong enough means of attack, and under the power of the Yamata no Orochi, Xingbu Ji and Bai Zangzhu could not even think of resisting.

"Humph!"

The Yamata no Orochi laughed in a low voice, and its five heads opened their bloody mouths, spewing out five powerful forces: Breath of Mist, Flame of Destiny, Lightning of Wild Rice, Cracked Earth, and Death Frenzy, to fight against Ara, Abe no Haruaki, Yaobikuni, Kagura, and Ootenzu.

However, Yamata no Orochi is still Yamata no Orochi after all. Even if it only has five levels of strength left, not everyone can get the upper hand. The attacks of Huang, Abe Haruaki and others were easily broken up by Yamata no Orochi halfway.

After breaking the offensive of the five people, the power of the snake did not decrease, and it charged towards the five people with great violence. None of the five people who launched the attack was able to avoid being seriously injured. Huang, who was already seriously injured in the battle with Tamamonomae, was even on the verge of death.

In just the first confrontation, the five-man formation was completely defeated, and Bai Zangzhu was also affected by the attack and turned back into Xiaobai, who was even worse than a little monster. Zhang Luo and Xingbu Ji escaped early and escaped death.

"Xingbuji! You go back first! St. George! Nezha! Beowulf! Siegfried! Hercules! Martha!"

Zhang Luo acted decisively and sent Xingbu Ji back to Valhalla, then shouted out the name of the dragon slayer.

The world-renowned dragon slayer appeared in the light of the summoning circle.

"The enemy is the leader of the Tsukishin of the Toyo Kingdom, the most powerful snake god, Yamata-no-Orochi. Saint George! Nezha! Beowulf! Siegfried! Hercules! Martha! In the name of the Command Seals, I command you to use all your might to defeat him!"

Without waiting for the heroes to say anything, Zhang Luo gave an order and six command spells flashed from his arms.

"Yes, master!"

The heroic spirits straightened their faces, picked up their weapons, and charged towards the Yamata-no-Orochi.

"Ok?"

Yamata no Orochi looked at the six dragon slayers with doubt and surprise. He could feel that these six people all had an extremely disgusting aura, but also had the ability to restrain themselves.

"What is this? This feeling, go to hell!"

Under the stimulation of the dragon-slaying breath, Yamata no Orochi exerted his extraordinary strength and used his body as a dragon.

Chapter 220 The Final Battle (End)

With the strongest attack of the six dragon slayers and the blessing of the Command Seals, as long as the enemy is a dragon, no matter how powerful the person is, there is no possibility of survival. Even the Yamata no Orochi is no exception.

Not to mention that in order to prevent the Yamata no Orochi from having the same characteristics as the nine-headed Hydra, which would continue to resurrect as long as there were heads left, Zhang Luo ordered the heroic spirits to take care of the remaining five heads of the Yamata no Orochi. Now, nothing is left out.

Yamata no Orochi will definitely die.

Everything went very smoothly, just as Zhang Luo had expected. As the five heads of Yamata no Orochi were destroyed one by one, Yamata no Orochi's body collapsed and turned into black mist and dissipated.

Looking at the disappearing body of Yamata no Orochi, Zhang Luo was stunned, feeling confused and uncertain. Although in his imagination, Yamata no Orochi with only five heads left should not be able to withstand five shots plus one round of Noble Phantasm strengthened by the Command Spell, but Zhang Luo couldn't believe that Yamata no Orochi really disappeared like that.

"we won?"

Abe Haruaki struggled to get up from the ground and asked in shock.

"It looks like, seems like, maybe, seems like, maybe we won." Zhang Luo said in a daze, using four uncertain nouns in a row.

Kagura and Yaobikuni were helped up by Minamoto no Boya and leaned against a broken wall on the side. They looked incredulous. They had been there with such a grand display before, yet they died so easily.

"Hmph!" Huang made a weak sound. Although it was light, it was full of disdain. "How can it be that simple? Yamata no Orochi is an immortal snake god."

As soon as Huang finished speaking, he saw a dark demonic energy that was even denser than before emerging from the ground where the Yamata-no-Orochi had disappeared. Angry roars were heard from the darkness, and violent waves emanated from it, knocking Marda and the others away and crashing heavily into the ruins near Zhang Luo.

"Not dead yet?"

Zhang Luo's face changed drastically. The damage caused by this kind of targeted Noble Phantasm to the targeted enemy is even heavier than the damage caused by the 31EX-level Noble Phantasm, and it is also assisted by the Command Spell. If this can't kill Yamata no Orochi, then what other way is there to kill him?

Torrents of blood rain fell from the sky, violent gales howled, dark clouds gathered, lightning streaked across the sky, the rolling dark clouds and thunder echoed with each other, and roars came from the clouds.

The demonic energy carried by the blood rain was strong enough that its shape could be seen clearly. It reflected the light of lightning like pieces of scales. Bathed in the bloody wind and rain, the terrifying body of the Yamata no Orochi appeared again.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Just a human! Just a human...! I want you dead!"

The Snake God is the god of water and also a wild god who can summon storms. The blood rain carries a toxin that corrodes everything. Thunder falls from the sky with the anger of the Yamata no Orochi. The strong wind rolls up the collapsed houses and broken city walls, and attacks Zhang Luo and his party.

Now is the time for Yamata no Orochi to get serious. He uses his emotions to move the celestial phenomena. With his joy or anger, the heaven and earth are reversed, and the wind and clouds change. This is the power of a true god.

"Disperse!"

The Word Spirit neutralized the attack of the falling lightning, and the lightning that was rebounded shot towards the ground, turning it into scorched earth, and the splashing arcs of electricity shattered the rocks.

"Whoosh!"

The light that surpassed the gust of wind penetrated the houses and city walls, and the remaining power turned everything swept by the gust of wind into ashes.

The ones who fought back were not Abe Haruaki, nor Arakawa, nor Minamoto no Hiromasa and Miotenzu, because Abe Haruaki and the others had been seriously injured and unable to move freely. Minamoto no Hiromasa had fought all the way back to Kyoto from Himeji Castle, and his spiritual power had long been exhausted. He had only relied on willpower to hold on until now and not fainted.

"Everyone, are there any casualties?"

An old voice came from the wind and rain. Everyone looked and saw Ashiya Doman, Kamo Tadayuki, Alchemist Danmyoshi and others passing through the ruins and walking in from the Suzaku Gate.

"Master Daoman?"

"Lord Tadayuki!"

The one who called Ashiya Doman was Abe Haruaki, and the one who called Kamo Tadayuki was Shiro.

"Tadayuki? Kamo Tadayuki? My teacher?"

Abe Haruaki looked surprised and looked towards Kamo Tadayuki in the direction Xiaobai called.

"Seimeishu Sara, Hakuzosu, Yaobikuni, Boya, you guys step back first, leave this to us." Kamo Tadayuki didn't say any nonsense, just gave an order and went to the front to face the furious Yamata-no-Orochi together with Ashiya Doman, Kukai and others.

"Sara? Are you calling me?" Kagura noticed that Kamo Tadayuki was looking at herself when he called this name before, and she muttered to herself curiously. Suddenly, several images appeared in her head, but they flashed by and could not be seen clearly.

"There is no time to think so much, let's retreat first." Abe Haruaki forced himself to stand up, and he and Minamoto no Hiromasa each supported one of them, and retreated to a distance with Kagura and Yaobikuni.

Huang hesitated for a while. When a bolt of lightning struck his side, creating a huge hole that almost buried him, he quickly stood up, braving the wind, rain, thunder and lightning in the sky, and slowly moved towards the outside of the Suzaku Gate with Yu Zhuanjin.

Kamo Tadayuki, Ashiya Doman, Kukai, Saicho, Jyozo, Gensohama, and Alchemist Danmushi are all Onmyoji standing at the top of Japan. Each of them is qualified to be a reserve for the crown, but under the attack of Yamata no Orochi, they are not as good as Siegfried, St. George and others. On the one hand, it is because of Yamata no Orochi's berserk state, and on the other hand, it is because of their compatibility.

"What's going on? I've blown all five heads up at the same time, so why can they still be resurrected?" Zhang Luo stood in place, a light suddenly flashing on his body, avoiding the rain of blood, and said anxiously.

"Because of the Desolate Soul, the Desolate Soul cannot die, it can only be sealed."

A figure suddenly appeared beside Zhang Luo. St. George subconsciously wanted to chop it down with a sword, but the figure was in front of Zhang Luo in a breath.

"Master Zhongxing?"

Zhang Luo stopped St. George's actions and shouted in surprise to the old man who appeared in front of him. He turned his eyes to the direction of Yamata no Orochi. Kamo Tadayuki was still fighting with Yamata no Orochi.

"Don't be surprised, this is just a clone." Kamo Tadayuki said lightly.

"You just said that the wild soul is immortal. What does that mean?" Zhang Luo didn't care what clone He Mao Zhongxing was talking about and immediately asked He Mao Zhongxing.

The six dragon slayers also gathered around and looked at Kamo Tadayuki.

"According to records, the origin of Yamata no Orochi is his wild soul. As long as the wild soul is not dead, it can be resurrected indefinitely. His wild soul has the power of immortality. Even the former Tianjin God could not kill Yamata no Orochi's wild soul. He could only separate it from his body and use artifacts to seal it in various parts of Japan." Kamo Tadayuki said seriously.

"Aside from sealing, is there no other method?" Zhang Luo asked again. Seals are really unreliable. Almost all sealed characters will break the seal once. This is the law that the seal must be broken.

"Killing Yamata-no-Orochi is extremely difficult, but not impossible. In the heyday of Yamata-no-Orochi, the three main gods used all their strength to destroy its eight heads. At that time, they no longer had the power to seal Yamata-no-Orochi's wild soul. However, Amaterasu left a divine prophecy before her demise. The sword that accompanied Yamata-no-Orochi had the potential to kill Yamata-no-Orochi. However, Yamata-no-Orochi knew this and destroyed the sword before being sealed. Now, only a small fragment is left in the underworld."

Kamo Tadayuki said seriously.

"You mean, the Kusanagi sword?" Zhang Luo reacted immediately. Isn't the companion sword of the Yamata no Orochi the Kusanagi sword taken out from the tail of the Yamata no Orochi?

"Yes, it's the Kusanagi sword, also known as the Ame-no-Kurosakumo sword, which is not even as powerful as the Ten-Grip Sword of the Gods." Kamo Tadayuki nodded slightly and continued, "Even so, even if the Yamata no Orochi is completely destroyed, it can't be killed by a fragment of the Kusanagi sword. So having a way is almost the same as not having any way."

"Kusanagi Sword..."

Zhang Luo fell silent, frowning. He did have the Kusanagi sword. Sengo Muramasa's Noble Phantasm, Tsumukari Muramasa, was another name for the Kusanagi sword. However, once this Noble Phantasm was used, it would cause Sengo Muramasa's spiritual base to collapse. At that time, it would be a big problem whether he could summon it a second time.

"Is the Kusanagi sword necessary? Are there no other methods? For example, Buddhist magic to liberate the wild souls." Zhang Luo asked. To deal with things like wild souls, Musashibo Benkei's Five Hundred Arhats Potala Palace Crossing the Sea might have a good effect.

"That's much more difficult than killing the Yamata-no-Orochi. Unless the Buddha comes in person, there is no possibility." Kamo Tadayuki directly rejected Zhang Luo's proposal.

"Then, I have no choice but to use this sword."
