Chapter 323: So it
"Almost there, it seems like it didn't make too much noise."
Seeing that the poverty Qi finally returned to the sky, the Daoists also began to do aftermath work. Feng Xue also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to use the Qi-Gazing Art, just glanced at the direction of the Dragon King Temple from an over-the-shoulder perspective, but found that the turbid Vow was still at the original position, so he felt relieved.
But just when he felt that things were stable, he suddenly noticed that several cultivators who were standing on the side slowly disappeared into the crowd. In a short while, in front of the City God Temple where 70% of the cultivators in the city gathered, less than 30% remained. Although they were all masters with faces, those who disappeared were not necessarily worse than them.
"Could it be that there are still changes?"
Feng Xue suddenly felt his soul jump twice, and King Ghidorah, who was holding his soul phantom with his wings in the sea of consciousness, also suddenly raised three dragon heads.
For no reason, something seemed to be throbbing in his temples, a subtle but undeniable connection seemed to be guiding something toward this side.
"Damn it, what's the situation?"
Feng Xue was confused and immediately looked at Liu Liu Yunxi, who could not participate in the Dharma assembly in her main body and could only turn into a ring, but she obviously had no clue, only the turbid Vow in the distance suddenly surged a bit.
No, it shouldn't be called a surge. Even if he didn't use the Qi-Gazing Art, Feng Xue could see that the composition of the turbid Vow was already very different from before. If it was originally a single-color "pigment" with clear directionality, and at most it was just a color difference because it wasn't adjusted when adding water, then now it was completely stirring several unrelated pigments together, messy and disorderly, neither pure nor correct, but it was forcibly condensed into one, making people feel uncomfortable.
But Feng Xue's intuition warning was obviously more than this discomfort. He breathed deeply, calmed his spirit, and while giving himself a Cleansing Heart Spell, he looked for those cultivators who left the field.
"Fellow Daoist, please stay!"
With a light call, the Daoist Feng Xue was staring at paused, then turned his head, his expression a bit displeased, but seeing that it was Feng Xue, who had recently become famous, he still forcibly suppressed his emotions and said:
"Fellow Daoist, your words are not auspicious!"
"Ah, sorry, sorry, I just want to ask what happened? Why did the number of people at the Dharma assembly suddenly decrease so much?"
Feng Xue only felt that the ominous premonition became clearer, so he skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point.
The cultivator heard this, his face also straightened, and he said seriously:
"I just received a message that the Dongying thieves used the Vow-Power of the Dragon King Temple as a guide to fuse the evil god Vow-Power they brought from their own country and condensed an eight-headed snake god. If it was a frontal battle, it would be fine, but that thing didn't know what stimulation it received, and it was single-mindedly rushing to the city center. No matter how entangled, it remained unmoved, and the snake was releasing poison all the way. If it entered the city, the people in the city would inevitably suffer. Some people felt that since it didn't fight back no matter how it was blocked, it would be better to completely blast it away before it entered the city..."
"Damn!" Feng Xue cursed in his heart. Although there was no evidence, his intuition told him that this Yamata no Orochi was definitely aimed at him!
Not to mention that he was too sure, an eight-headed snake god, brought from Dongying, and absorbed the Dragon King Vow-Power, with the characteristics of water disaster, if it wasn't Yamata no Orochi, could it be Xiangliu or Nine-Headed Insect?
However, hearing this news, Feng Xue could be considered to understand the source of that ominous warning. As the cultivator said, once Yamata no Orochi enters the city, it will bring huge karma. It is certain that the Dongying people bear the main responsibility, but whether he, the person who brought Yamata no Orochi, should bear the secondary responsibility?
Don't talk about victim-blaming. The human spiritual machine doesn't care about the set of "those who don't know are not guilty." At most, those who don't know are treated lightly. What's more, Feng Xue already knows now, so this crime is basically implemented.
"So I just caught a human pillar, and let Bai Yi take it away, why did it stare at me?"
Feng Xue was puzzled, but he showed a righteous posture and said:
"We cultivators, eliminating demons and defending the Dao, are duty-bound! Does Fellow Daoist have any flying escape method?"
"Naturally, there is." The cultivator nodded, thinking that Feng Xue wanted him to take a ride, and immediately wanted to perform the magic formula. Who knew that Feng Xue heard this, but nodded and said:
"Then I can rest assured, Fellow Daoist, we will meet later!"
The voice fell, and Feng Xue's figure flashed suddenly, leaving only the cultivator who had just rubbed out a breeze stunned...
"It really is Yamata no Orochi!"
Feng Xue flew to the high altitude with a displacement technique, using the displacement method of the same style as Kuroko Shirai to leap forward with inertia.
At this time, he had already risen to 300 meters above the ground, and from afar, he saw the black clouds surging, and the behemoth that was tens of meters high even if it just raised eight heads. In front of it, the cultivators were simply like ants.
Various magic arts smashed on the giant snake's body. Although it could explode a piece of spray, it was far from enough to change the movement trajectory of the big snake. And with the snake's movement, behind it, the sky also formed a strange weather.
Discarding those strange bosses who inexplicably obtained the negative consciousness of the planet, the negative consciousness of human beings, and the strongest evil god because of various secondary creations, Yamata no Orochi itself is a description of water disaster.
Yamata refers to the appearance of river water spreading when it floods. The red, blood-dripping body like rotten flesh refers to the red mud (iron ore) mixed into the river because of the flood. Kushinadahime and her seven sisters symbolize the grain fields and harvests taken away by water disasters for eight consecutive years, and the treasure sword taken out from the tail is the sharp weapon forged by mining iron ore after the water disaster was pacified.
Therefore, Yamata no Orochi itself symbolizes floods and famine. After absorbing the incense Vow-Power accumulated in the Dragon King Temple, it gained the bonus of local faith. Eight snake heads faintly grew dragon horns, as if there was a trend of turning into a dragon, and this also made its power change from river flooding to the angry waves of the sea!
However, compared to these information that can be read from Vow-Power at a glance, what makes Feng Xue feel most helpless is the reason why it stared at him—
King Ghidorah.
Yes, although King Ghidorah's background setting comes from an alien creature from Venus, in the legendary version of Godzilla, it has no connection with Yamata no Orochi at all. But it is undeniable that it absorbed the elements of Yamata no Orochi and Eastern dragons in its creation, and this element was naturally added intentionally or unintentionally when Feng Xue shaped it.
"So it's a False God of the same type! What is this, monsters will attract each other? So before fighting Godzilla, I have to decide on a King of Monsters with Yamata no Orochi first?"
Feng Xue had such a thought in his heart, but he didn't have the idea of taking everything at all. He still remembered that hexagram. Rigidity is easy to break. He needs to rely on the power of the righteous path to turn danger into safety and return with a full load!
Thinking of this, he immediately pressed the slot on his waist, and the five-colored jade stones touched the magic gold inside the belt in turn. Massive Primordial Qi poured into the dantian, flowed into the sea of consciousness, and turned into Five-Element magic power.
With earth as the foundation, water and fire chase each other like Yin and Yang, and gold and wood are like Yin and Yang fish eyes, pointing into it, gathering into a golden thunder ball, which he held in his palm.
The surging power expanded in his palm, and Feng Xue's figure fell from this, followed by the cursing residual sound of Mo Ying that remained in his ears...
