Chapter 264: Reveal True Form

Chapter 264: Chapter 264: Reveal True Form

Without waiting for everyone to figure it out, Orochi burst into loud laughter and said, "A thousand years! Ever since Susano sealed his physical body atop Mount Fuji before his death, I’ve been unable to regain my power! I could only descend to the mortal world by borrowing others’ bodies. But today, my wish has finally come true."

"Of course, I owe it all to you!"

Saying this, Orochi cast a mocking glance at Yang Tian.

It turned out that his previous strike wasn’t about settling scores with Yang Tianyi. More importantly, choosing Mount Fuji as the battleground had been premeditated!

His scheme was to use Yang Tian’s strength to deliver a full-force clash that would break Susano’s seal from ages past. Thus, he could regain Susano’s physical body and reclaim the strength that was rightfully his!

"This moment marks my return! Orochi, reappearing in the mortal realm!"

Orochi let out a cold smile and suddenly gripped fiercely. The armored man in his grasp was instantly reduced to ashes, leaving behind only a blazing strand of white light that shot into his palm!

At that moment, Orochi’s aura completely vanished, making him seem undetectable to everyone.

"Mortal, do you sense it?"

Orochi gazed at Yang Tian and said with booming laughter, "Do you think my aura has disappeared? That perhaps I’ve entirely lost my strength? That’s because, at this very moment, I’ve finally returned to the God-level! Gods and mortals are worlds apart, existing in entirely different realms. That’s why you cannot perceive the aura of a god!"

"Naturally, it is thanks to you that I could return to the God-level. As my reward, I’ve decided to send you to your death!"

With these words, Orochi launched a seemingly simple palm strike. However, compared to before or during the clash at the Rice Field Shrine, this strike appeared deceptively ordinary yet carried an oppressive destruction that could obliterate the heavens and the earth.

This was Orochi, acting after officially regaining his God-level power!

"Restored strength? Truly the God-level?"

Yang Tian listened to Orochi’s words and faced this incoming palm strike with an expression that revealed neither joy nor sorrow. He coolly responded, "What of your God-level? I’ll shatter you all the same!"

"Shatter me? Haha, how arrogant!"

Upon hearing Yang Tian’s reply, Orochi sneered arrogantly, "You cannot comprehend what it means to be a God-level expert! A god is inherently divine! When faced with a god, you can only choose to grovel for survival—or perish!"

"Then I choose to kill you and keep living!"

Yang Tian chuckled coldly, extending one hand slowly and saying, "Slaughter Demon Fourth Style, Taotie!"

BOOM!

As soon as Yang Tian’s words fell, a decaying aura spread rapidly from him as the center, transforming the sky and earth into a monochrome black-and-white landscape!

A milky-white energy vortex appeared in Yang Tian’s hand!

Milky-white!

This color was entirely impossible to have emerged in his hand!

After all, Yang Tian was a Cultivator, and his body harbored pure Devil Essence, the epitome of darkness!

Because of this, all of Yang Tian’s techniques, energized by Devil Essence, have always emitted black brilliance. White? Never possible.

Yet, not only did white appear now, but it shone even more dazzlingly than the light emanating from Orochi’s body, leaving Orochi slightly stunned.

However, this wasn’t a sign of Yang Tian altering his cultivation technique. The force in his hand remained Devouring Power. However, using the Taotie move within the Slaughter Demon Fourth Style—named after the Ancient Divine Beast infamous for devouring all things under heaven—naturally elevated its might beyond any of Yang Tian’s prior uses of Devouring Power.

Moreover, extremes breed reversals!

When Yang Tian compressed his Devil Essence to its utmost limit, it ceased to be black and instead took on its current milky-white form!

As Yang Tian’s milky-white vortex spun ever more furiously, Orochi’s expression underwent a series of changes, his mind faintly plagued by a sense of foreboding!

Despite reclaiming Susano’s sealed strength, thus becoming a true God-level expert!

Why, then, was there this ominous feeling?

This drove Orochi nearly to madness!

Suddenly, in response, Orochi unleashed his God-level exclusive Divine Domain.

Reaching God-level grants dominion over heaven and earth!

This dominion materializes as a Divine Domain that encompasses the heavens and earth, turning everything within its grasp into the God-level expert’s possession!

As Orochi’s Divine Domain emerged, his hand pushed closer to Yang Tian’s location, attempting to encapsulate him within the domain and crush him into oblivion with one palm.

But before his plan could fully play out, Orochi’s face darkened yet again.

He discovered that his Divine Domain froze abruptly around 200 meters away from Yang Tian.

This 200-meter buffer zone was precisely the black-and-white realm that Yang Tian’s Taotie technique had produced upon release!

"Could it be... could this also be a Divine Domain? This brat is actually a God-level expert like me?"

Sensing that his Divine Domain was being blocked by the black-and-white realm, Orochi’s face turned utterly grim!

He had believed that reclaiming his long-sealed power would make him the ultimate ruler of the mortal realm.

But now, another God-level entity had emerged?

"Impossible! And utterly unforgivable! One God-level is more than enough!"

Orochi roared furiously, his aura surging several times over again, nearly reaching its peak. He proceeded to unleash his Divine Domain at maximum power.

If he couldn’t envelop Yang Tian, then he’d simply overwhelm him by sheer force. With the overwhelming disparity in their levels, he would annihilate Yang Tian completely!

Yet, at the same moment, a swelling bulge on Orochi’s forehead began to ooze crimson blood, staining his face entirely red.

SIZZLE!

As Orochi’s aura peaked, the bulge on his forehead burst open entirely, revealing a pair of gleaming white horns!

"Haha! Dragon transformation complete! Now, no one in this world can rival me! Die, ant!"

Upon speaking, Orochi’s Divine Domain expanded tenfold in an instant. The radiant white light enveloped the entire summit of Mount Fuji.

The brilliance was so dazzling that everyone on the mountainside had to squint their eyes, unable to see the final moments of this climactic battle clearly!

Silently observing Orochi’s laughter and palpable power, Yang Tian remained composed, paying full attention to the vortex in his hand that had reached its ultimate velocity!

At the moment even Yang Tian himself could no longer discern the vortex’s rotation, his eyes snapped open, and he softly uttered, "Taotie, Devour Heaven and Earth!"

The milky-white vortex explosively expanded countless times over, its black-and-white colors spreading outward.

The sky darkened; the earth turned pale.

Orochi’s Divine Domain, pressing onto Yang Tian, began to dim and was ultimately enveloped by the milky-white vortex.

From afar, it appeared as if an actual Taotie, mouth agape, was devouring the very heavens and earth!

CRACK!

Under the immense force of Taotie’s devouring power, Orochi’s Divine Domain began to fracture, shattering to pieces before being utterly torn apart and consumed.

Orochi stared pale as death at the scene unfolding before him: "My... my Divine Domain... it shattered?"

For a God-level expert, mastery of the Divine Domain represents their ultimate power.

The fracturing of a Divine Domain signifies the imminent end of the God-level expert’s life!

Standing on the brink of death, Orochi still failed to comprehend what had occurred. Yet, even so, he knew that escape was imperative!

With his Divine Domain broken, his life could no longer be preserved!

But if he could find a suitable physical body, he might still ensure his soul’s survival without the need for reincarnation.
