Chapter 391 Killing the Yamata no Orochi and the World Tree's Main Root [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

"When the tree withers, the dragon is born; when the dragon dies, the tree flourishes."

The return of the Supreme One is a predetermined destiny, but who will be the Supreme One is uncertain.

The general trend cannot be changed, but the minor trend can be changed.

My good-for-nothing brother, even if you don't want to ascend the throne, you can't escape this predetermined fate!

"Chen Hong? I hope you don't covet this supreme position, otherwise, as a devil, I'll have a hard time dealing with you."

The little devil Lu Mingze stroked his chin, his golden eyes shining brightly. Despite his seemingly harmless and noble appearance as a young boy, his eyes concealed arrogance, obsession, and tyranny.

In Lu Mingze's heart, there is only absolute "power and strength". He and Lu Mingfei are twins. He has an extremely deep and obsessive feeling for his brother and is committed to making his brother become like him.

Unfortunately, he always failed. No matter what he did, Lu Mingfei was always that "loser," a hopeless case.

Even so, Lu Mingze, who loved his brother deeply, still did not give up on him and wanted to push him to the final throne.

In the deep sea, the massive explosion, flames, and whirlpools gradually dissipated, revealing human figures inside.

It was Chen Hong, who was activating the blue light protective shield and the golden light protective wall, wearing the Raging Rhinoceros Armor and holding the [Raging Rhinoceros Giant Shield], and Uesugi Erii, who was firmly protected behind Chen Hong.

"You're... alright?"

A hint of human-like shock flashed in the Yamata no Orochi's golden vertical pupils, revealing that its intelligence was no less than that of humans.

Without the slightest hesitation, realizing just how terrifying this tiny human was, Yamata no Orochi swiftly launched its attack.

"【Word of Power: Indra】!"

When Yamata no Orochi activated the incantation, his pupils were no longer the golden color of his golden eyes, but were covered by the incandescent white (blue-white) of lightning, obscuring their original gold color.

The Yamata no Orochi was covered in blinding lightning, which spread so widely that even the space around him was highly ionized.

The seawater was ionized into hydrogen and oxygen by the terrifying lightning.

Golden lightning pierced through everything, triggering a massive explosion of hydrogen and oxygen. The lightning bolts struck Chen Hong like an electric net, leaving him no way to avoid them.

A beam of lightning also hurtled towards Chen Hong, determined to kill him.

"Humph!"

"【The ocean is boundless, the abyss is swirling】."

"【Yin Five Thunders, Shadow Thunder】".

"【Sea Heart Ice Flame, Ocean Magic】".

"【Reversed in eight directions, electromagnetic rotation】."

"【Ultimate unity, the convergence of all forces】."

"【Return to the Void - Extreme Point - Kill】!"

Chen Hong threw a spear, the shaft sweeping through the ocean whirlpool, condensing the power of each skill he unleashed, and also engulfing the hydrogen-oxygen explosion that the Yamata no Orochi had accidentally created.

Carrying immense power, it shattered Indra's lightning pillar, and like Odin's spear of destiny, locked onto the Yamata no Orochi, striking its massive serpentine body with a devastating blow.

The Yamata no Orochi was too large to avoid Chen Hong's attack, which pierced its body, creating a hole the size of a building.

The Yamata no Orochi groaned, and black-gold dragon blood flowed from its wounds like a stream.

The Word of Power: Orochi takes effect, granting it near-immortal regenerative abilities; its flesh and blood writhe, attempting to heal its wounds.

However, Chen Hong's attack was too powerful and too complex, with various forces undergoing a chemical reaction-like evolution, hindering his repair.

Even along the wound, various forces eroded the entire massive serpent body, forcing the Yamata no Orochi to expend energy to suppress the alien forces and the injury.

"【Mysterious Yin Soul Refining Corpse Beast Formation】, erected!"

Chen Hong took out eighty-one [Mysterious Yin Gathering Beast Banners] and set up the Mysterious Yin Soul Refining Corpse Beast Formation. Countless black evil spirits spread, eroding everything, suppressing the Yamata no Orochi, and enveloping the Yamata no Orochi's mountain-sized body, covering the entire underwater city.

The eight-headed serpent's vertical pupils contracted as it sensed a severe crisis. The black evil energy seeped into its body, penetrating every pore, attempting to refine it and turn it into a puppet, forever deprived of its freedom.

The Yamata no Orochi began to resist fiercely, but found that its power was no match for the black evil energy and could not withstand the refining effect of the entire Xuan Yin Soul Refining Corpse Beast Formation.

"Roar! Howl!..."

"【Word of Power: Ice Emperor】!"

The Yamata no Orochi decisively released its Word of Power, which was an extremely cold domain. The seawater within the domain, along with the fish swimming in it, quickly froze, and the ice froze everything.

"Word of Power: Sovereign Flame, Word of Power: Dark Gold Blazing Flame, Word of Power Fusion!"

Chen Hong used the boundless flames fused with the power of words to melt the ice and counteract the power of the Ice Emperor.

However, Orochi also bought himself a moment of respite, and decisively burned his own life force, chanting a spell and unleashing the most powerful, world-destroying incantation.

"【Word of Power: Return to Nothingness】!"

This is the ultimate power of the ocean and water system, with a radius of 5 km, capable of creating a tsunami capable of destroying the Japanese archipelago within 3 minutes.

The water pressure within the area instantly increased to 1000 atm, causing the internal organs of all living beings except the holder to burst.

Chen Hong narrowed his eyes. Of course, he wouldn't let Orochi unleash its ultimate power and let the cooked duck fly away.

To be honest, this Yamata no Orochi has a lot of powerful incantations. It has its eye on this super sea monster and wants to refine it into a puppet for its Xuan Yin Gathering Beast Banner, so that it can enter the banner for a chat.

This is a super dragon that is no less powerful than the first generation of dragons. Its body is so huge that it can provide a continuous supply of dragon blood materials. Every part of it is a treasure.

"【Mysterious Yin Demonic Qi】!" Chen Hong exhaled the icy demonic qi, instantly freezing the surroundings. The ice froze the enormous eight-headed serpent, causing his action of activating the Word of Power to abruptly halt.

The Yamata no Orochi twisted its massive body, still trying to struggle, causing the ice to crackle.

"【Yin Fire Thunder】!"

Chen Hong unleashed bolts of eerie green Yin Fire Thunder, which struck the Yamata no Orochi, producing a corrosive hissing sound and sending up scorching white steam. The Yamata no Orochi opened its mouth wide in pain, seemingly roaring.

"【Dan Shi】!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Hong added dozens of pills, hitting the eight seven-inch points and the snake's head, as well as the central connection point of the snake's body, the middle of the tail, the tail, and other key nodes.

Ignore defenses, spread with all your might, sever lifelines, and there is no way to escape death.

Tormented by the spreading poison of Dan Shi, the Yamata no Orochi struggled to break free of the ice, roaring to the sky, and even the Word of Power: Return to Nothingness stopped.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Hong instantly flew above the Yamata no Orochi.

"【Mysterious Yin Blood Light】!"

Chen Hong unleashed eight streaks of blood-red light, striking the eight heads of the Yamata no Orochi, breaking through the alchemical matrix protection within its skulls, and completely shattering its spiritual core.

The eight enormous heads of the Yamata no Orochi fell limply to the ground, their massive necks and bodies crashing onto the seabed with a deafening roar, stirring up waves of mud.

Chen Hong used the [Mysterious Yin Soul Refining Corpse Beast Formation] to refine the enormous, mountain-like body of the Eight-Headed Serpent, and to refine the fragments of its spirit, turning it into a corpse puppet.

They also collected all the golden blood he shed as material.

Then he put away the eighty-one Xuan Yin Gathering Beast Banners, and the eight-headed serpent was also taken into the banners, becoming a beast within the banners.

"Let's go and take a look at that well where the remains are hidden."

"Mmm." Erii nodded obediently, without the slightest panic, because she knew that Chen Hong would protect her, and she had no doubt about it.

Chen Hong, holding Erii's delicate white hand, flew towards the place previously covered by the body of the Yamata no Orochi.

Arriving at a large red well, Chen Hong, carrying Erii, used a water-repelling shield and a light-generating protective shield to descend into the well.

To make it easier for Erii to see, Chen Hong used the Word of Power: Blazing Sun, which created a halo behind his head, adjusting its brightness to illuminate all directions.

Upon reaching the bottom of the well, they indeed saw a white skeleton.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Hong immediately unleashed countless sealing formations and sealing magic, sealing it completely.

Then it was put into a jade box, sealed with countless sealing talismans, and then put away.

After scanning the surroundings and the ground with his divine sense to make sure he hadn't missed anything, Chen Hong and Erii flew out of the well.

Throughout the entire process, Chen Hong did not even touch the sacred remains, nor did he use his divine sense or spiritual power to do so.

Chen Hong knew that the sacred remains were the resurrection method left behind by the White King, and it was obvious that they contained the White King's will.

He naturally wouldn't meddle in the White King's will, to gauge the remaining power of this dragon high priest who had been dead for countless years.

Chen Hong already had a plan on how to obtain the White King's bloodline and status.

As a dragon king with a spiritual nature, the White King is very helpful for Chen Hong to strengthen his spiritual origin and control the fifth element, spiritual element.

Moreover, as the White King is second only to the Black King and subtly surpasses the four monarchs, he possesses an overwhelming number of Words of Power, each with considerable power, which can enhance and enrich Chen Hong's methods.

Upon reaching the seabed, Chen Hong glanced at the ancient city and collected the numerous alchemical weapons and bronze ritual objects buried within. He planned to keep them to analyze the dragon race's alchemy later, and even if they were no longer needed, he could sell them for a fortune.

Then Chen Hong unleashed his full divine sense and spiritual power, scanning the entire ancient alchemy city of the Dragon Clan. Looking down, he saw something different.

A tectonic fissure can be seen directly below the burial site (Takamagahara), through which a river of lava and a fiery spring can be seen.

Chen Hong directly teleported Erii into the rift with him and began exploring downwards.

This underground fissure is unexpectedly deep, exceeding 8,000 m in depth.

Chen Hong carried Erii at top speed for eight thousand meters to reach the underground.

In this deepest part of the deep sea, the water pressure is terrifying, capable of crushing the world's most advanced submersible into blocks of steel.

Fortunately, Chen Hong's Water-Binding Earthly Fiend Divine Power allows him to go to any kind of water, even the weaker mythical rivers, so this ordinary deep sea is naturally no problem.

The bottom of this crack was reinforced by the dragons with alchemical chains and bronze walls, forming a "vertical shaft" that continued downwards—that was the entrance to the "World Tree Root System".

At the end of the crack, you can see a "pale wooden giant pillar" with a diameter of nearly 100 meters, its surface covered with dragon patterns.

The pillar pierced through the mantle, branching upwards into countless tendrils that entangled the entire ancient castle of Takamagahara.

Looking at this magnificent scene, Chen Hong couldn't help but exclaim, "What a magnificent World Tree!"

Erii gazed curiously at the main root of the World Tree, as if she had encountered a magnificent natural wonder while traveling.

"Godzilla, what is this thing? It's huge!"

Faced with Erii's curiosity, Chen Hong naturally satisfied her, and immediately smiled.

"This is one of the six main roots of the World Tree."

The world is rooted in the entire Earth, with six main roots that penetrate the cracks in the six major tectonic plates.

The pale, massive wooden pillar we see now is the "Asia-Pacific Root."
