Chapter 206 Beheading, Snake Cave
The true appearance of Yamata-no-Orochi appears.
The huge snake body was dark and sticky, which made people feel very uncomfortable at first glance. With a sweep of its thick long tail, a dozen martial arts masters who had no time to retreat were immediately swept away. People vomited blood in the air, as if they were being attacked.
Heavy damage.
The layer of human skin it took off fell to the ground like dried paper scraps and fell into pieces.
"Is this the true body...it looks disgusting."
Su Yuan's expression was quite solemn.
This big snake in its true form is undoubtedly more dangerous and terrifying than the human form.
He looked towards Kami Qianle Reimu, who at some point took out many props used by onmyojis and arranged them in a specific order in an open space, as if setting up a formation.
"Prince Su, give me some more time." Shen Qianle Lingmeng held the gold and silver fan and was extremely focused, her lips just pursed. "Please let your men hold the big snake. I will use Yin and Yang to kill it later."
seal!"
"...Is this technique troublesome?"
"Yes."
While the two were talking, Yamata no Orochi had launched a new offensive.
When it appears in its true form, its speed and power are even more fierce. Even if an undead wizard keeps slowing it down, the effect is not as good as before.
Originally, the innate masters could still fight it in human form, but now that the snake form appeared, several innate masters were at a loss to deal with it, and they were all seriously injured immediately.
One of them was so panicked that the snake swallowed him in one gulp, leaving only a shrill scream.
Su Yuan saw that the innate masters were no longer of use, and quickly ordered: "All the masters in the world, please come back!"
There was no point in letting them die in vain. After hearing the order, everyone retreated, and only Li Yuanba was left on the field to support them.
He relied on his innate divine power and the two hammers in his hands to fight against the big snake. It was obvious that the big snake also found Li Yuanba's amazing strength, so it tried to wrap its body around him several times, making him unable to exert any strength.
However, Li Yuanba had an extremely keen sense of combat and had already seen the snake's purpose. He paid great attention to his position and avoided the snake's entanglement several times under the acceleration given by the priest.
One man and one snake were evenly matched, but Su Yuan could see that Li Yuanba was at a slight disadvantage.
The big snake was too big, and Li Yuanba was very frustrated when he beat it. He was almost always passively defending, and it was difficult for him to hit the big snake's vital parts with the hammer in his hand.
Apart from its vital points, this snake's body is extremely soft. If a hammer hits it, it will immediately soften its body to avoid damage.
If this continues, Li Yuanba will suffer losses sooner or later.
"Your Majesty! We can still fight!"
When a group of martial arts masters saw Li Yuanba fighting the big snake alone, their hearts surged and they continued to ask for a fight.
Su Yuan shook his head in disapproval.
Dozens of martial arts masters have been killed or injured in the hands of the snake. Since these people have joined the Bei'an Army, they are his soldiers, and he will not let the soldiers die in vain.
At this time, a middle-aged man suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I have a way! I am from the Beiming Sect. There is a martial arts in our sect. The greater the internal strength, the greater the power! If my colleagues pass on all the internal strength to
I, I will definitely be able to hurt that beast!"
"oh?"
"Beiming Sect...is it the Whale Swallowing Kung Fu?"
"I have also heard that the whale swallowing skill of Beiming Sect, the greater the internal strength, the more powerful it is. If the internal strength is sufficient, it can even kill a strong master with one strike! If the internal strength is insufficient, even a three-year-old child cannot be defeated."
"I am willing to transfer my inner power to you!"
Masters in the martial arts world have heard about this Kung Fu and agree to transfer internal energy.
Su Yuan thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, let's give it a try."
For a time, many martial arts masters lined up in a row, pressing their palms on the backs of the people in front, transmitting their internal energy layer by layer.
The man standing at the front to bear the internal force was the man from Beiming Sect. As more and more internal force was transmitted to him, the aura around him became more and more powerful.
When the internal energy of hundreds of people were concentrated on his body, his face turned purple and he looked up to the sky and let out a loud roar.
"Beast! Die!
!”
The man from the Beiming Sect jumped up, spreading his wings in the air like a roc, and slapped his palms towards the big snake.
"Whale Swallowing Jue!"
The violent and turbulent internal energy spurted out, forming the reflection of a giant whale in the air!
This giant whale, which had gathered the internal strength of hundreds of martial arts masters, smashed into Yamata no Orochi with a terrifying momentum!
The big snake felt the danger coming from above its head and immediately gave up its attack on Li Yuanba. Its whole body suddenly shrank, entangled, and coiled into a ball. The snake's head retracted into its coiled body to avoid being attacked.
The giant whale slammed into the body of the big snake. Its indestructible body was broken in several places in an instant, and a large amount of black blood spurted out.
"It's done!"
The Beiming Sect man who landed on the ground clenched his fists and shouted, then fell backward weakly and was supported by others.
His attack drained everyone's internal strength, including his own. If it hadn't yielded results, then they, the masters of martial arts, would be of little use.
Su Yuan was also quite excited. The amount of bleeding was so large, this big snake monster should have been seriously injured.
He looked at Kami Qianle Reimu again, and suddenly found that she was taking out a dagger, cutting her finger, and dripping blood into a guard. The guard gave off a faint light, as if absorbing the blood.
"What are you doing?"
"My lord, you will be fine soon..."
"That's not what I'm asking." Su Yuan said seriously, "You have to pay a huge price for this sealing technique, right?"
Kami Chiraku Reimu said in a weak voice: "To seal the Orochi, you need to sacrifice the life of the Great Miko. This was the case with the first generation of Great Miko, who successfully sealed the Orochi."
"Now the responsibility lies with me. For the sake of my tribe and the people of Dongbo, I will not escape." She pleaded to Su Yuan, "I just hope that Prince Su... can treat the people of Dongbo better after the big snake is sealed...
"
After saying that, she started to activate the technique.
But the next moment, her wrist was grabbed.
She looked up in shock. Su Yuan grabbed her hand and said to her, "Stop."
"Varied……"
"I said stop."
Su Yuan kicked away the onmyoji props placed on the ground, and Shen Qianle Reimu immediately became anxious.
"My lord, what are you doing?"
"Listen, I don't allow you to do this." Su Yuan frowned and said, "Is it worth sacrificing your life to seal the snake?"
"Of course it's worth it! The first generation..."
"Just because the first generation of shrine maidens did that doesn't mean you have to do that too. After hundreds of years, has there been no progress at all? A few hundred years ago, you had to sacrifice your life to seal it, but will it be the same a few hundred years later? Is it just a seal?"
Su Yuan looked a little annoyed.
"I would say that you guys are just stupid! Even if it is sealed, will it wake up and harm people in a hundred or two hundred years? Then what is the use of this seal?"
"But!" Kami Qianle Reimu was anxious, "This is the only way..."
"I will kill this beast today so that it will never have the chance to harm others." Su Yuan interrupted coldly.
After saying that, he let go of Kami Qianle Reimu's hand and told Tanya to keep an eye on her and not allow her to perform the ritual again.
"I'm sorry." Tanya walked to her side, "I must obey the commander's order. Please don't touch those strange things again."
"..."
Shen Qianle Reimeng's eyes were red and she looked at Su Yuan. The latter's cold and determined eyes made her a little overwhelmed and confused.
Killing the big snake...can it really be done?
It is obviously the duty of the great miko to seal the big snake...
Kami Qianle Reimu is not afraid of death, and the previous sacrifices of her clan members were just for her to seal the big snake today.
However, Su Yuan did not allow her to do this.
She still wanted to fight for it, but Tanya beside her was staring at her hard.
Helpless, she could only look at Yamata no Orochi.
The combined blow of the martial arts masters really seriously injured the big snake, causing huge wounds on its body. The large pool of black blood that emerged showed that it was seriously injured.
But the injury was not fatal.
Li Yuanba shouted loudly and raised his hammers, hoping to take advantage of his illness to kill him. When he got closer, the Yamata Snake suddenly raised its head, opened its mouth wide, and sprayed out a cloud of black mist!
The black mist was extremely smelly. Li Yuanba avoided most of it, but some of it was still stained on his left shoulder. The armor on his left shoulder made a "sizzling" sound, as if acid was corroding it.
Su Yuan, who was behind, saw the pain on Li Yuanba's face and knew that the black mist was powerful and might have hurt him, so he quickly told him to retreat temporarily.
But the Yamata no Orochi refused to let go. It raised its head high and opened its mouth wide, as if it wanted to swallow Li Yuanba in one bite!
Chance!
At this moment, the snake's high head was far away from the snake's body, seven inches of vital parts were exposed, and the four swords that had been waiting silently were immediately dispatched.
Plum Sword, Orchid Sword, Bamboo Sword, and Chrysanthemum Sword, the four of them formed a sword formation in an instant, and the Plum Sword holding Su Yuan's sword delivered a fatal blow with the force of thunder.
"cut!"
She shouted softly, and the sword energy surged out like lightning!
Everyone saw a flash of light before their eyes, and a large amount of black blood erupted from the air!
The head of Yamata no Orochi fell from the sky and was cut off by this sword energy!
"The monster is dead!
!”
For a moment, not to mention Su Yuan's Bei'an Army, even the surrendering Eastern Japanese warriors and Ashigaru burst into roaring cheers.
"brute!"
Li Yuanba vented his anger and hit the head of the snake that fell to the ground with both hammers, smashing it into a puddle of flesh.
The huge body of the big snake, as the snake's head was chopped off, crashed to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Su Yuan's heart felt light, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Shen Qianle Lingmeng shouting: "Don't relax! It's not dead yet!"
"
What?!
As soon as the girl finished speaking, the headless snake body that had fallen to the ground rose up again, and with a sweep of its long tail, it killed dozens of warriors. Then, like an earthworm that had been cut off from the middle, it coiled and swam away.
!
Kami Chiraku Reimu was in a panic: "It's going to run back into the snake cave, we must stop it!"
Su Yuan calmed down and asked Qi Jiguang to lead some Bei'an troops to stay in the Daming Palace to control the situation and supervise all the samurai ashigaru.
He himself led Li Yuanba, Mei Lan Zhuju and other martial arts masters to immediately chase him out on horseback!
Everyone was riding Xiliang horses at very fast speeds, but they still couldn't catch up with the headless snake body.
Su Yuan watched it run further and further away, but he never thought that this beast could survive after its head was chopped off!
Kami Chiraku Reimu accompanied him and said anxiously: "This guy is very tenacious and difficult to kill! The first generation of great miko suffered a big loss when she subdued it. She had clearly injured it seriously, but it didn't take long for it to come back!"
"You mean, it can heal wounds in the snake cave?" Su Yuan asked.
Kami Qianle Reimu was certain: "This must be the case!"
As he spoke, the snake's body swam out of everyone's sight. Fortunately, God Qianle Reimu knew the location of the snake cave and led everyone underground.
Arriving at the location of the Shenqianle Clan's underground clan, the darkness was illuminated by the torches lit by everyone. There were still broken pottery fragments of statues on the ground, which were left behind when the clan's land was destroyed.
When they arrived at the snake cave, there was still black blood stains at the entrance. It was obvious that everyone was a step too late and the big snake had already entered the snake cave.
Looking at the dark, deep hole with no end in sight, the martial arts masters looked at each other, at a loss.
Go down?
It's just a joke, who knows what's underneath. Besides, this cave is so narrow that it would be difficult for a person to turn around after entering, and it would be difficult to come back.
Kami Qianle Reimu gritted his teeth and said: "Let me seal it. Otherwise, when it recovers, it will come out to cause trouble again."
Su Yuan stared at the snake hole, pondered for a moment, and then looked at someone: "Tanya."
"Commander, I'm here!"
"Use C4."
"clear!"
Su Yuan will definitely not send anyone into the hole, but there is no problem in letting Tanya throw a C4 bomb down.
For such a narrow hole, the lower space may not be very large. If C4 is thrown down and detonated, it will definitely hit the big snake's body.
Whether it can be blown up is another matter. Anyway, Su Yuan plans to have the hole dug out to see what is underneath!
"Commander, please return to the ground first to prevent collapse caused by the explosion!" Tanya said.
"Okay. What about you?"
Tanya showed a charming smile: "I will make a timed detonation device, commander, don't worry."
Su Yuan nodded, and the group returned to the ground.
Shen Qianle and Lingmeng were unwilling, but were forcibly taken away by Su Yuan.
Not long after, Tanya also came out.
Then there was an explosion.
"Boom!"
The sound was very muffled, and no one knew what the effect was. The explosion occurred in the snake cave. Who knows whether the remains of the big snake were killed?
Su Yuan did not hesitate too much. He left some people to guard, and then led the team back to the Daiming Palace.
At this time, Qi Jiguang had all the prisoners lined up and all weapons confiscated. He also searched the palace, and he also found the daimyo Hojo Nobu and had people tie him up with ropes.
"Your Majesty, you are back."
"Um."
Hearing Qi Jiguang's attitude towards Su Yuan, Hojo Nobu knew that this person was Su Yuan, and quickly shouted: "Is it Prince Su Yuan! I am the great name of Towa! I sent the witch to invite you to bring troops!"
"
"...That's the daimyo?"
"Yes, does the prince want me to untie him?"
"Need not."
Su Yuan had no idea of paying any attention to Dai Ming.
He came to this land to be the master of the family, not to do good or good deeds.
This daimyo thought that the Bei'an Army would defeat the shogunate, and then Orochi would leave immediately and let him take charge of power. That was just a daydream.
Su Yuandao: "Lock up all the important people, and then pick out three thousand strong men... Just pick out the warrior who went to the palace Shingen, pick them out, and go to work with shovels."
Hearing that Su Yuan wanted to pick out Jingzhuang, Shen Qianle Lingmeng realized something and stepped forward: "Prince Su, you..."
