"Oh? You actually harbor the intent to kill me!" The Sun God hovered in mid-air, looking at Yamata no Orochi whose eyes were filled with murderous intent, and with a hint of mockery said, "You are nothing but a guardian beast of the Divine Artifact, yet you dare show your intent to kill to the great deity? You're simply courting death!"

The nine massive and fierce heads of Yamata no Orochi stared intently at the Sun God, drooling venom that sizzled as it hit the ground, clearly indicating the saliva's potent toxicity!

"Roar!" Yamata no Orochi let out a low growl as its enormous body soared towards the Sun God.

The Sun God's body flashed, and Yamata no Orochi crashed heavily into the volcanic rock wall beside him, instantly creating a massive crack in the hard wall.

"Such tremendous strength, such sturdy defenses!" Although Yamata no Orochi was merely the guardian beast of the Tian Cong Yun Sword, its power was not to be underestimated!

The colliding Yamata no Orochi was somewhat infuriated, its bestial nature fully roused as several of its heads lunged at the Sun God with necks that seemed to stretch and contract.

"Bring it on!" The Sun God's eyes filled with the thrill of battle, "I've been wanting to see just how strong this beast really is!"

Four heads attacked at once, coordinating with one another in such a way that they completely sealed off the Sun God's retreat!

"Sacred Shield!" The Sun God commanded in a low voice, conjuring a shield around him that shimmered with a golden light.

A roar erupted as one of the heads let out a piercing shriek, sending a sharp force straight into the Sun God's mind.

His brow furrowed, and his head felt dizzy. In that moment, another head with a sharp horn at its top hit the Sun God's Protective Barrier with great force.

With a loud bang, the Protective Barrier's power weakened significantly due to the Sun God's momentary distraction, and with that collision, it was shattered!

The Protective Barrier shattered, and the Sun God instantly snapped back to reality.

"Not good!" Another hideous head continued its assault. The Sun God waved his hand, but the head had already collided heavily with his right arm.

With a crack, the Sun God's right hand let out a crisp sound—his arm was broken. However, using the rebounding force, the Sun God managed to escape further attacks from the head.

"How dare you wound me? Unforgivable!" The Sun God's face turned grim. He had only intended to test the strength of the beast, but to his surprise, Yamata no Orochi had truly harmed him. And the shrieking from one of the heads had even contained the power of a mental attack!

Just then, the Sun God noticed a shadow overhead. He hadn't anticipated another head of Yamata no Orochi sneaking up behind him, its gaping maw with a foul stench swallowing the Sun God whole!

"Hiss, I didn't expect Yamata no Orochi to be so powerful!" Divine Ninja, who had stealthily approached, witnessed this scene and couldn't help but frown.

Divine Ninja's original plan was for the Sun God to engage in a fierce battle with Yamata no Orochi, hoping that it would weaken the beast, allowing him to swoop in opportunistically and reap the benefits.

But to his dismay, the Sun God was also no match for Yamata no Orochi and had been consumed by it!

Divine Ninja started to worry. In order to obtain the Fusang Divine Artifact, the Tian Cong Yun Sword, he had to defeat Yamata no Orochi and gain its recognition to acquire the sword.

"No choice left, if push comes to shove, I'll have to step in!" Divine Ninja took a deep breath, just as he was about to take action,

Suddenly, Yamata no Orochi's body trembled violently, its nine heads flailing, uttering hisses filled with pain and struggle.

"What's going on?" Divine Ninja decided to wait and see, temporarily halting his advance.

With a loud thud, a colossal wound burst open on the body of Yamata no Orochi, and a golden arrow feather flew out from its body, piercing through the dark clouds above.

"You damn beast, how dare you show such disrespect to me!" the Sun God burst forth from the body of Yamata no Orochi, radiating dazzling golden light all over.

In his hands, he gripped the Bow of the Sun God. His skin had turned golden, and he emanated an air of supremacy, as if he were a true Divine Spirit.

The wounds on Yamata no Orochi's body were healing rapidly. It felt a power emanating from the Sun God, a formidable force that made it tremble in fear!

Hiss hiss hiss! The nine heads of Yamata no Orochi raised high, hissing and flicking their enormous tongues. The eyes on the central head showed caution.

"Bow of the Sun God, activate!" The Sun God raised the Bow of the Sun God high, and radiant lights began to emanate from it, converging in the air to form a massive figure!

This figure bore an air of ultimate supremacy, calmly looking down at Yamata no Orochi with disdain, as though gazing upon a mere insect!

"Is this... could this be the Artifact Spirit of the Bow of the Sun God?" Ling Feng, hiding in the distance, watched the scene unfold, somewhat shocked.

Yamata no Orochi also felt the contempt, and it let out a heaven-shaking roar, its body growing larger and its aura steadily strengthening.

"Mere insect tricks!" the Sun God said coldly. "Just a mutated worm daring to defy Divine Might, I grant you death!"

Slowly, the Sun God drew the Bow of the Sun God, countless beams of light converging upon it as a golden arrow glow emerged on the bowstring.

"Divine punishment, Arrows of the Sun God!" With the Sun God's thunderous cry, he released the bowstring, and the golden glow instantly transformed into countless golden rays shooting towards Yamata no Orochi.

The countless golden rays fell upon Yamata no Orochi, each one carrying the power of the Arrows of the Sun God.

In just a brief moment, countless wounds exploded across the body of Yamata no Orochi, its body riddled like a sieve, blood dyeing the entirety of Mount Fuji's Entrance red.

With a thunderous crash, Yamata no Orochi slammed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.

The Sun God's face turned somewhat pale as well, as this move had taken a significant toll on him.

He stowed his bow and arrows, and the colossal figure in the sky also vanished without a trace.

"Humph, a beast is nothing more than a beast after all!" The Sun God coldly looked at the weakened Yamata no Orochi and said indifferently, "Hand over the Tian Cong Yun Sword, or else I shall have no choice but to slay you!"

Fear flashed in the vast serpent eyes of Yamata no Orochi. With a low growl, its entire body turned into a black light and shot into the ground.

The Sun God frowned; at that moment, he sensed another surging power rising relentlessly.

Crack crack, a gigantic fissure split open at the base of Mount Fuji's Entrance, and a strangely shaped longsword gradually emerged in midair.

Upon this longsword, an image of Yamata no Orochi, baring its fangs and claws, was etched onto the blade.

"Tian Cong Yun Sword, you've finally appeared!" The Sun God exhaled, his eyes flashing with excitement.
