It was clear that Orochi intended to kill him first before dealing with Susanoo, but Kyosuke Kousaka wasn't about to give him that chance and retreated as soon as he realized the danger.
Retreating doesn't mean running away.
Because he still has to fight Orochi next, but Orochi's power is far greater than his. Aside from the indescribable "burst of power" situation before, he should just play a supporting role in any other situation.
"You speak so eloquently, yet you retreat faster than anyone else." Orochi naturally saw through Kousaka Kyosuke's behavior and was not surprised. "Then let's see how you manage to retreat."
As they spoke, the attack shifted towards the stage.
boom!
Countless starlight pressed down, as if darkness had fallen, and the immense power of the stars annihilated the attack of the Yamata no Orochi.
It's Huang who's made his move!
The Yamata no Orochi remained unmoved, but more miasma emanated from its body, transforming into serpentine forms.
"That's enough of these petty tricks."
Susanoo spoke calmly, and a continuous stream of lightning formed a spherical protective shield, like a barrier isolating the area around him, and soon isolated one side of the stage.
"Small tricks?" Orochi retorted. "Isn't it enough that the tricks are effective? You'll soon find out."
As Kyosuke Kousaka watched the Yamata no Orochi's increasingly eerie smile, his thoughts raced through his mind.
"Is it a curse cast by Ame no Habakiri? According to the story, Orochi left a mark on the evil god long ago. After the evil god's power was absorbed by Ame no Habakiri, it would also leave a mark on Ame no Habakiri. And Ame no Habakiri was made from the bones of Lord Susanoo, which is enough to leave a mark on him..."
Common curses can be performed through mediums such as hair and nails, let alone bones.
Kyosuke Kousaka, who had considered this problem long ago, had carefully studied the solution.
And it's absolutely effective.
That is, just get the "medium" back. At the same time, just when Seimei felt the time was right and activated the Ame no Habakiri from the sword box again, the Ame no Habakiri flew out of the sword box uncontrollably!
[Kagura!]
As if after countless rehearsals, Kousaka Kyosuke summoned Kagura to his side. Kagura, who appeared next to Kousaka Kyosuke, was already casting hand seals continuously, and the spiritual power on her body surged out and rushed towards Ame no Habakiri, who was flying in the air and seemed to be transforming into a snake demon!
Ok?
Unexpectedly, the Yamata no Orochi that reappeared from Kousaka Kyosuke's body finally suppressed its smile. A fierce serpentine miasma shot out from in front of it towards Kousaka Kyosuke and Kagura, and also attacked Susanoo and Ara, who were able to support the two.
"Don't think about it!"
Susanoo withstood the attack and quickly moved in front of Kyosuke Kousaka and Kagura to block an even more devastating attack for them.
Kousaka Kyosuke, who was focused on Ame no Habakiri along with Kagura, noticed that Susanoo's aura was gradually weakening and that the speed at which he was casting sealing techniques was increasing.
At the moment of complete completion, he first cast a spell to protect Kagura, and then used his greatest strength to help her... Suddenly, feeling a blazing fire of light flowing within his body, Kousaka Kyosuke had an epiphany and abruptly poured all his power into the sun in the sky.
A fierce wind swept through the air, but the background grew brighter and brighter, as the sun shone with dazzling white light, illuminating the goddess's holy body step by step...
When Kyosuke Kosaka saw the goddess in white slowly open her eyes, a huge weight was lifted from his heart.
Amaterasu was thus awakened.
510. Amaterasu VS Orochi / Full of Fallacies / Catch It
Life is fleeting, but variables are endless.
Seeing that Kyosuke Kousaka had awakened Amaterasu using his own power, Orochi sighed in amazement.
That being said, he began to increase the power he exerted!
They were preparing to take advantage of the situation to eliminate Kyosuke Kousaka, this "variable" who was increasingly making it impossible for him to carry out his plans.
Amaterasu has just awakened.
He was still somewhat confident that he could try to put Amaterasu back to sleep and make her the vessel for the descent of the goddess of destruction, Izanami.
Of course, before that, both Susanoo and Kousaka Kyosuke need to be dealt with.
There's still a good chance if the sealing spell is broken.
"Still so stubborn?"
Despite being covered in wounds, Susanoo, who was still standing in front of Kyosuke Kousaka and Kagura to block attacks, seemed to be in much better spirits than before.
The fact that Amaterasu had finally woken up boosted his fighting spirit, as if he had found his backbone.
He seemed to recall how, in ancient times, Amaterasu disregarded everyone's opposition and made him a war god, while he paved his way with thousands of demon corpses and formally swore allegiance to Amaterasu.
Now that Amaterasu has been awakened, though perhaps still weak, he needs to work even harder to overcome all the difficulties.
"And I."
Seeing that Susanoo was in poor condition, Kyosuke Kousaka drew upon the power he had stored in advance from the demon sword and activated a secret technique to quickly restore himself, thus enabling him to fight again.
Putting aside what will happen after Amaterasu wakes up, let's continue to join forces with Susanoo to fight against Orochi.
"The stage can be dismantled now; everyone else should focus all their efforts on fighting Orochi."
As Kousaka Kyosuke pondered this, he also remembered to have Longkui emerge from the Demon Sword to protect Kagura.
With his power sealed, Ame no Habakiri was protected by Kagura, and Kousaka Kyosuke also sent a telepathic message to Seimei and Yaobikuni to come and help.
Because he knew that this was Orochi's next target, he had to be absolutely certain of success.
Even if three top-tier Onmyoji and a powerful sword spirit are no match for a top-tier god, they can still hold out for a while, which is enough for Kousaka Kyosuke and Susanoo to go and provide support.
"Kagura, how are you feeling?"
Yaobikuni, who had broken away from the group fighting Orochi, came to Kagura's side and asked her with concern.
Seimei, on the other hand, focused his attention on the Ame no Habakiri that Kagura was holding.
After Ame no Habakiri broke free of his control, he immediately realized that Orochi had probably laid a trap for the evil god in ancient times, which was why Ame no Habakiri was under his control.
"I'm fine. Ame no Habakiri... it seems to have been corrupted. If it's unsealed, it could turn into a snake demon at any time."
"How long can you hold out?"
"I can keep going as long as there are no other unexpected events."
Kagura answered Seimei's question.
Seimei nodded, then turned his gaze elsewhere.
The current situation is quite complex.
The God-King Amaterasu has just awakened and does not seem to have fully recovered yet; she is currently communicating with Ara.
Susanoo and Kyosuke Kousaka were engaged in a fierce battle with Yamata no Orochi.
There's also the Great Serpent God and the released Lustful Evil God. These two powerful beings are being fought by others, making them arguably the most dangerous group. But Seimei knows that Ame no Habakiri is even more important.
If Ame no Habakiri is lost, the situation will likely be reversed to a great extent.
If I'm not mistaken, Susanoo will likely suffer great harm at that time.
If that situation were to occur, it would be extremely bad.
After all, Susanoo was the main figure in the fight against Yamata no Orochi, and Seimei could see that Kousaka Kyosuke, who seemed to be fighting Yamata no Orochi with ease, was actually fighting desperately.
If Kyosuke Kousaka were to fight Orochi alone, he would likely not survive.
"Everyone, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
A gentle female voice rang out, its sound seemingly echoing throughout the world.
Kyosuke Kousaka and Susanoo abruptly stopped their attack, maintaining a safe distance from Orochi for the time being.
At that moment, the world changed. The instant Amaterasu spoke, the gloom in the sky was dispelled by the light, the raging fire was extinguished, the gale ceased, the serpents vanished, and the rampaging serpent god and the lustful evil god were frozen in place like stone statues.
Where the light shines, life flourishes.
Kyosuke Kousaka was also illuminated by the light and immediately discovered that all the damage he had suffered from the secret technique was healed in an instant.
The others were even less affected; they looked completely unharmed, except for their slightly disheveled clothing, which indicated they had just been through a major battle.
"The old, hidden injuries too..."
Kyosuke Kosaka was quite surprised.
He had never imagined that Amaterasu's healing abilities could be so powerful.
I can only say that he truly lives up to his title as the God King!
"Amaterasu, after a thousand years, is the goddess who revives all things before me now, or the evil god who breeds sin?"
The Yamata no Orochi spoke to Amaterasu in a mocking tone.
Kyosuke Kousaka had to admit that Orochi was indeed quite perceptive of human nature.
Those who know the details know that the evil god is an incarnation of Amaterasu. If we think about it negatively, it is only natural for them to place all the blame on Amaterasu.
To this, Kyosuke Kousaka could only say that it was an oversimplification.
Having reached his level of understanding, he had long realized that disaster was bound to befall him at this stage. Therefore, even if Amaterasu had not separated evil from evil, others would have continued to repeat her actions.
“It is fate, and it has its own purpose,” Amaterasu replied calmly to Orochi. “Just like how we reunited in this era after a thousand years.”
Ara remained silent behind Amaterasu.
The fate of the world has always followed the prophecies in his starry sea, and sometimes he feels like he's just an observer...
