The words fell!
The incredibly ferocious snake head suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a dense black gas, covering Ao Yuan.
Even before it reached him, the stench emanating from the black gas could be detected.
It was obvious.
This black gas was undoubtedly laced with deadly poison.
"It contains deadly poison! Anyone who comes into contact with it will surely die! Let's see how you dodge this!" the giant snake roared from the air.
"Sir, perhaps you should leave first?"
"We'll handle this... it's our responsibility."
Upon hearing this, Xie Churan's body trembled, and she couldn't help but speak.
She wanted to live, but she didn't want to implicate others in the process.
After all.
The terrifying, ferocious giant snake in the sky versus the seemingly ordinary Ao Yuan.
No matter how one looked at it, Ao Yuan was bound to lose.
"It's fine."
Ao Yuan turned his head and smiled at Xie Churan. "I said I would protect you, and I will definitely protect you!"
Xie Churan stared blankly at Ao Yuan. For some reason, although his words were very calm, she heard an absolute dominance and confidence in them.
It was as if the emperor's golden decree from ancient times, once spoken, would certainly be fulfilled.
"Be careful!"
While lost in thought, Xie Churan suddenly noticed that the black gas being spewed out was already nearing Ao Yuan. She immediately cried out a warning.
"A petty trick!"
A golden light flashed in Ao Yuan's eyes, followed by a wave of his sleeve.
Boom, boom, boom!
An invisible aura surged out of him, sweeping towards the void like a tide.
"How is this possible!" The giant snake in mid-air slightly changed its expression as it saw Ao Yuan make a move.
This aura appeared formless, but it could clearly sense that it was almost more potent than its own.
"I am a deity of the Kai Shen realm! How could there be anyone stronger than me in Great Xia!"
The giant snake shook its head, discarding the thought, but its vertical pupils held a lingering sense of solemnity.
Boom, boom, boom!
At this moment!
The boundless aura from the void violently collided with the mass of black gas.
Under the giant snake's utterly shocked gaze, its black gas, under the pressure of this boundless aura, instantly dissipated into the void, leaving not a trace behind.
"Roar!"
As if greatly provoked, the giant snake roared continuously, its vertical pupils filled with unparalleled solemnity.
By now, it understood that it had indeed encountered a formidable opponent.
But at this stage, how could it retreat?
"Roar!"
"Noisy!"
Ao Yuan's low roar echoed, and then he suddenly opened his mouth, unleashing a towering column of water.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
The giant snake roared incessantly, its body enshrouded in black gas that surged outwards like a tidal wave.
Splash!
The water column struck the black gas, causing it to reverberate with thunderous muffled sounds.
However.
The black gas swirling around its body seemed inexhaustible.
The water column that plunged into it, after the initial shock, produced no further sound.
"Roar!"
"You are strong, but I am not to be trifled with!"
"Congratulations, you have successfully angered me!"
Thump, thump, thump!
As it spoke, rolling black gas churned up the dust, surging outwards in a vast expanse.
At this moment.
The blazing sun was obscured by the rolling black gas, as if plunged into a dim twilight.
"Roar!"
With a muffled thud, another colossal and ferocious snake head emerged from the dense black gas.
And this seemed to be just the beginning.
Then.
Two.
Three!
...
Six.
Eight.
From the rolling black gas, snake heads continued to appear.
Until finally!
A total of eight ferocious and terrifying snake heads, all with flickering tongues and pairs of gloomy vertical pupils, fixed their gaze upon Ao Yuan.
"Yamata no Orochi!"
"This is the Yamata no Orochi worshipped by Fusang!"
"Shouldn't it be in Fusang? Why is it here?"
"This is a true deity! We're doomed! We're all doomed!"
...
As all eight snake heads fully emerged, Xie Churan and the Great Xia soldiers protected by Ao Yuan behind her had a drastic change in expression, falling into a stunned uproar.
Despite their rigorous training and countless battles, this was, after all, a deity!
The most powerful being on Planet Blue, and they couldn't help but be shaken.
"Yamata no Orochi?"
"I wonder how many evolution points I'll get from swallowing it."
Unlike Xie Churan and the Great Xia soldiers, Ao Yuan appeared much calmer.
In fact, if one looked closely, a glint of greed could be seen in his eyes.
At the same time.
Within a radius of a hundred miles.
Countless civilians also witnessed the anomaly in the sky.
"Snake! Eight snake heads!"
"Yamata no Orochi!"
"It's the Yamata no Orochi!"
"The monster that can devour humans in legends!"
"My heavens, why is it here!"
...
In an instant, countless civilians within Great Xia fell into panic.
After all, this was a deity worshipped by Fusang!
The pressure it brought was overwhelmingly strong.
Amidst the panic of Great Xia's populace, countless members of the Great Xia officialdom reported the matter level by level to Elder Long.
This was the Yamata no Orochi, a true deity.
Its appearance near Great Xia made it impossible not to be vigilant.
"What's going on?"
When Elder Long received this urgent message, his face was filled with astonishment.
However, he quickly regained his composure and asked a staff member beside him, "Where is the location where the Yamata no Orochi appeared?"
"It should be near our Great Xia's coastal border!" the staff member replied immediately.
"Who is in charge of that area? Connect them immediately and find out what's happening."
"Yes!"
The staff member responded and quickly found Xie Churan's contact information.
Ring, ring, ring!
The call was connected.
"Hello."
As Xie Churan softly said "Hello," Elder Long's deep voice came through: "Captain Xie, according to the report, the Yamata no Orochi appeared in the area under your control."
"What exactly happened?"
Hearing Elder Long's voice, Xie Churan was taken aback at first.
She never expected that Elder Long would be the one calling.
However, soon.
She recovered and glanced at Ao Yuan, who was confronting the Yamata no Orochi. She immediately recounted the situation to Elder Long in detail.
Listening quietly, Elder Long nodded slightly, but his heart was filled with some doubt.
Who was that...
Mysterious expert?
And in the battle with the Yamata no Orochi, he was initially able to gain the upper hand. Even if it was only one-eighth of the Yamata no Orochi's strength, it was not to be underestimated.
Searching his mind for information on Great Xia's powerhouses, Elder Long still couldn't find a suitable candidate.
"Tune the satellite to Xie Churan's location and transmit the footage."
With doubts in his mind, Elder Long quickly issued a command: "Then send people to negotiate with Sanben Yitian and ask him what exactly is going on!"
