Chapter 508: Kyo! Your Girlfriend is Gone!
Yata no Orochi, a brutal technique, was developed by observing the Eight-Headed Serpent cruelly devouring eight young maidens as sacrifices.
Many associate Yata no Orochi with Iori Yagami, believing it to be his exclusive move. However, if classified by the move's true lineage, Iori Yagami's clan's Yata no Orochi is actually a pirated version. Only Goenitz's Yata no Orochi is the genuine technique passed down from Orochi.
And what Nicole Goenitz was using at this very moment was the most authentic Yata no Orochi, passed down through the blood of Orochi, and it was even a MAX Super Special Move performed after powering up.
When Cheng Tian remotely had Eileen select the team challenge option, their Twin Tigers team and half of the Heavenly Kings entered a state of endless conflict.
A strong enmity, completely permeating from her bloodline, drove Nicole Goenitz to abandon Kyo Kusanagi and attack Cheng Tian directly.
Compared to the previous tier's "True Yata no Orochi:Dragon," this version added a pre-effect of instantaneous movement using wind, making it an almost undefendable surprise attack for those unfamiliar with it.
And as soon as the first claw of this True Yata no Orochi landed, Cheng Tian would be met with a continuous, irresistible barrage of terrifying claw strikes... But who was Cheng Tian?
The moment Nicole Goenitz powered up, Cheng Tian knew what ultimate move she would most likely unleash. And so, just as Nicole Goenitz flashed in front of Cheng Tian, the World was withdrawn by Cheng Tian. At the same time, the Holy Radiance Protection Barrier, which should have been a wide-area defense, appeared with holy light, covering only his body.
The cultivation of the Mind Power Battle Technique origin clearly gave Cheng Tian greater freedom in the use of mental power. Actions like transforming a wide-area defense into a single-target shield were a manifestation of this freedom.
Nicole Goenitz's hands, completely devoid of nail polish but incredibly dangerous due to the sharp wind swirling around them, slammed onto Cheng Tian's face, erupting into a small hurricane that firmly locked Cheng Tian in mid-air.
What followed was a series of fluid, continuous claw strikes that allowed no resistance whatsoever.
If Iori Yagami's Yata no Orochi was a beast tearing apart its prey with sharp claws and savagely feeding, then Nicole Goenitz's True Yata no Orochi was using a sharp scalpel to precisely cut every vital joint on the prey's body.
After the strong winds, every usable, exquisite part of the prey would be completely separated and presented to the public.
As the punching bag, Cheng Tian looked completely like an unlucky child caught in a swirling ocean current, even wishing for a corresponding sound effect every time he was hit... But his HP didn't drop at all; only his MP was depleted!
The True Yata no Orochi, which had no barrier-piercing effect, seemed to hit Cheng Tian with every strike, but in reality, all damage was absorbed by the protective barrier. Not only that, Cheng Tian's MP recovery BUFF on his head surged to a rate of 640 MP per minute under the continuous onslaught of True Yata no Orochi, and every additional hit refreshed the 60-second duration of the BUFF.
It's a bit of a shame that the MP recovery BUFF only lasts a maximum of 60 seconds.
However, the 17-year-old girl, currently in the midst of unleashing True Yata no Orochi, lacked experience and couldn't detect that Cheng Tian was only in pain but unharmed, making loud noises but actually being perfectly fine. At the same time, she had already released the final blow on Cheng Tian, following the instincts of True Yata no Orochi.
But it was this very blow that made her belatedly realize the problem.
Iori Yagami's final blow of Yata no Orochi is completed by injecting and igniting purple flames. The original True Yata no Orochi is no different, except Nicole Goenitz needs to inject Orochi's power containing storms.
Unlike the scorching of purple flames, the storm tears the human body from within, causing irreversible damage to the target's internal organs and muscles, directly and efficiently, just as Goenitz did in his lifetime.
But this time, when Nicole Goenitz slammed Cheng Tian to the ground like a sandbag and then triggered the storm within Cheng Tian's body, a pit appeared on the ground, but the imagined internal explosion made no sound at all.
Something's wrong!
The instant this thought flashed through Nicole Goenitz's mind, an even greater killing intent swiftly descended from above her head.
Carrying a storm completely unrestrained by Orochi's power, an arrow descended from the sky with the force to pierce Nicole Goenitz through—
Storm Power Strike!
"What ignorance! How dare you use wind to attack the embodiment of the storm?"
Seeing this arrow imbued with a storm, Nicole Goenitz laughed in furious defiance. To her, this was an utterly absurd act, like trying to use an electric fan to extinguish a tornado, leaving her so speechless that she could only laugh.
But just as Nicole Goenitz was about to casually dispel the storm above her head, a scorching heat and a chilling cold assailed her from two opposing directions: from behind and from in front!
The scorching heat from behind was Kyo Kusanagi's fiery fist, his anger on his face undiminished but also mixed with surprise.
And the chilling cold from in front... was the World, emanating white mist all over!
Cheng Tian was thrown off by the True Yata no Orochi, but that didn't stop him from releasing a substitute in mid-air to join the battle.
Attacks assailing her simultaneously from front, back, and above, coupled with the brief power vacuum caused by just releasing True Yata no Orochi, made Nicole Goenitz seem as if she had nowhere to evade. And indeed, she didn't evade, because—
Blinding lightning struck the spirit arrow.
Purple flames blocked Kyo Kusanagi's red flames.
A fist, filled with heat like flowing magma, met the World's Muda Muda attack head-on.
Nicole Goenitz's crisis was resolved, and three figures appeared beside her.
"Have they fully awakened?"
Cheng, who had taken a full set of True Yata no Orochi, his HP undiminished but his MP almost fully recovered, sprang up from the ground with a carp jump.
The aura around the Hell Band trio in front of him was completely different now; dense elemental energy was emanating from each of them.
According to Chizuru Kagura, the tranquilizer she used on these three was enough to knock out an elephant. It was unclear whether these three simply had good physiques or if they used some specific method to nullify the drug's effects.
"Yuki! Where's Yuki! Where have you hidden her!"
Although Kyo Kusanagi was surprised by Cheng Tian's sudden intervention and help, his initial goal remained unchanged: finding his girlfriend. Now, seeing the Hell Band trio, his eyes were bloodshot...
"She has already been sacrificed to the great deity."
Nicole Goenitz clasped her hands together, her expression suddenly becoming incredibly pious.
Good heavens, have they already drained her energy? That was quick!
Cheng Tian, knowing Yuki's role in the Orochi resurrection ritual, thought to himself.
But the next second, a terrifying aura erupted from the momentarily stunned Kyo Kusanagi.
"...What! Did! You! Say!"
Kyo Kusanagi's flames, mixed with the power of the sun, erupted from various parts of his body like an ignited gas tank.
And at this moment, the Tai Chi True Eye in Cheng Tian's glabella also took on the color of the Sun God Gem Shard.
The Sun God Gem Shards of both sides actually formed a resonance!
