Chapter 508 Kusanagi! Your girlfriend is gone!
The Eight Maidens is a cruel technique that evolved from observing the Yamata no Orochi cruelly devouring eight young girls as sacrifices.

Many people associate the Eight Maidens with Iori Yagami, believing it to be a move exclusive to him. However, if we distinguish between moves according to their orthodoxy, the Eight Maidens used by Iori Yagami's clan is actually a knock-off. Only the Eight Maidens used by Goenitz is the authentic move inherited from Orochi.

At this moment, what Nicole is using is the most authentic Eight Maidens, inherited from the Orochi bloodline, and it is the MAX super move after being activated with her power.

After Cheng Tian remotely controlled Eileen to select the team challenge option, their Twin Tigers team entered into a life-or-death struggle with half of the Heavenly God Clan members.

A strong hostility, stemming entirely from their bloodline, drove Nicole to abandon Kyo Kusanagi and turn her attack on Cheng Tian instead.

Compared to the previous rank of "True Eight Maidens Dragon", the target has an additional pre-emptive effect of using the wind to teleport, which is almost an undefendable surprise attack for those who are unfamiliar with it.

As soon as the first claw of the True Eight Maidens strikes, Cheng Tian will be met with a continuous and terrifying barrage of claw attacks that he cannot resist.

...But who exactly is Cheng Tian?

As soon as Gao Nicole got angry, Cheng Tian knew what kind of big move she would probably make. So, the moment Gao Nicole flashed in front of Cheng Tian, ​​Cheng Tian took the world back. At the same time, the Holy Radiance Protection Barrier, which should have been a wide-area protection, appeared only on the surface of the body, emitting holy light.

The cultivation of mental power combat techniques has given Cheng Tian greater freedom in the use of mental power. Actions like turning wide-area protection into single-target shields are a manifestation of this freedom.

All that could be seen was Gao Nicole's hand, which had no manicure whatsoever but looked incredibly dangerous because it was wrapped in a sharp wind, slammed hard onto Cheng Tian's face, and then burst out with a small hurricane that could lock Cheng Tian firmly in mid-air.

What followed was a series of fluid, continuous claw strikes that left the victim defenseless.

If Iori Yagami's Eight Maidens are like wild beasts tearing apart their prey's body with sharp claws and ferociously devouring it, then Nicole Kano's True Eight Maidens are like using a sharp scalpel to precisely cut every important joint on the prey's body.

After the storm, every usable and exquisite part of the prey will be completely dissected and presented to the public.

As the punching bag, Cheng Tian looked exactly like an unlucky kid caught in a whirlpool of waves, and it would be even more like he needed a corresponding sound effect for every hit he took... But his health didn't drop at all, all he lost was MP!

Although the True Eight Maidens, which do not have a barrier penetration effect, seem to hit Cheng Tian with every attack, all the damage is actually absorbed by the protective barrier. Moreover, under the continuous attacks of the True Eight Maidens, the mana regeneration buff above Cheng Tian's head has soared to a level of 640 MP per minute. In addition, every time he takes another hit, the 60-second continuous buff is refreshed.

It's a bit of a shame that the mana regeneration buff only lasts for a maximum of 60 seconds.

However, the 17-year-old girl, who was in the state of releasing the True Eight Maidens, lacked experience and could not see that Cheng Tian was only in pain but not seriously injured. He was screaming loudly but was actually fine. At the same time, she had already released the final blow to Cheng Tian in accordance with the True Eight Maidens' instincts.

But it was this very blow that made her belatedly realize the problem.

Iori Yagami's final attack in the Eight Maidens technique is accomplished by injecting and detonating azure flames. The original technique, True Eight Maidens, is similar, except that Gonik needs to inject the power of Orochi, which contains a storm.

Unlike the scorching heat of the Azure Flame, the Storm tears the human body apart from the inside, causing irreversible damage to the target's internal organs and muscles. It is direct and efficient, just like everything Goenitz did in his lifetime.

This time, however, when Gao Nicole slammed Cheng Tian to the ground like a sandbag, triggering a storm within Cheng Tian's body, a crater appeared on the ground, but the expected internal explosion did not make a sound.

has a problem!
The moment Gao Nicole had this thought, an even greater killing intent came rushing down from above.

Amidst a storm completely beyond the control of Orochi's power, the arrow descended from the sky with the force that pierced through Nicole—

A powerful storm strike!
"What utter ignorance! How dare they use wind to attack the embodiment of the storm?"

Seeing the arrow carrying the force of a storm, Gao Nicole was so enraged she laughed. She found it utterly absurd, like trying to extinguish a tornado with a fan—utterly ridiculous and laughable. But just as Gao Nicole was about to casually ward off the storm above her head, a scorching heat and a chilling cold aura attacked from opposite directions behind and in front of her!

The scorching heat from behind was accompanied by the undiminished anger on Kyo Kusanagi's face, mixed with surprise, as he unleashed his fiery fist.

The chilling coldness that came before him... was actually a world filled with white steam rising from his entire body!
Cheng Tianren was thrown away by Shin-Ya-Nyo, but that didn't stop him from releasing his Stand again in mid-air to rejoin the battle.

Attacks came simultaneously from three directions: front, back, and top. Combined with the brief power vacuum caused by the release of the True Eight Maidens, it seemed as if Nicole had no way to avoid them. And indeed, she didn't dodge, because—

A dazzling bolt of lightning struck the elven arrow.

The purple flames blocked the Kusanagi's crimson flames.

A fist brimming with heat, like flowing magma, clashed head-on with the world's greatest blow.

With the crisis over, three more figures appeared around Nicole.

"Have you fully awakened?"

After taking a full combo of True Eight Maidens, Cheng, whose health didn't decrease but whose mana was almost fully restored, sprang up from the ground with a somersault.

The atmosphere surrounding the Hell Band trio in front of us is completely different now; a strong elemental aura is emanating from each of them.

According to Chizuru Kagura, the sedative she gave the three of them was an amount that even an elephant couldn't withstand. She didn't know if the three of them were simply very healthy or if she used some special method to neutralize the effects of the drug.

"Where's Xue! Where is Xue?! Where did you hide her?!"

Although Kyo Kusanagi was surprised by Cheng Tian and the others' sudden intervention and help, his initial goal remained unchanged: to find a girlfriend. Now, seeing the Hell Band trio, his eyes were practically red...

"It has already been sacrificed to the great god."

Nicole crossed her fingers and her expression suddenly became incredibly devout.

Goodness, they've already drained all the energy? That was fast!
Cheng Tianxin said, knowing that Xue was positioned in the Great Serpent's resurrection ceremony.

But the next second, an intimidating aura erupted from Kyo Kusanagi, who had just been stunned.

"……What did you say!"

The Kusanagi Fire, imbued with the properties of the sun, erupted from all parts of Kusanagi's body like a lit gas canister.

At this moment, the Tai Chi True Eye between Cheng Tian's eyebrows also revealed the color of a fragment of the Sun God Gem.

The fragments of the Sun God Gem from both sides actually resonated together!
