Bang!
A tremendous roar, like thunder from a clear sky, echoed across the surrounding area. A red, Tailed Beast Bomb- like beam of light shot from Barrett's wound, aiming straight for Ichikishimahime's vital spot.
Ichikishimahime was stunned. The next second, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and her whole body went numb. She coughed up a mouthful of blood, followed by a dizzying sensation.
Her vision began to blur, and then the enormous snake body slowly collapsed!
Orochimaru touched his left shoulder, rubbing it painfully. Damn it, the Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb Crystal is really insane when used.
He wouldn't have used this so easily if it weren't for the goal of killing Ichikishimahime in one blow!
Manda was stunned. He looked at the large hole in Ichikishimahime's heart, then at Orochimaru rubbing his arm, and a chill ran down his spine.
Holy crap! The Three Divine Princesses, whom I couldn't defeat under normal circumstances, were taken down by Orochimaru thrust?
So that means Orochimaru's current strength is enough to easily kill me? Holy crap! What's going on? How is that black stick in his hand so powerful!
"Sister!" Tagitsuhime's eyes glazed over. Tagitsuhime, who was fighting against Tagorihime, suddenly lost focus. Tashin- Tagorihime's eyes lit up, and then she struck Tagitsuhime in the abdomen with a palm, knocking her back.
He then looked in the direction of Ichikishimahime and Orochimaru, who was rubbing his arm. His eyes narrowed, and he began to use Senjutsu Chakra to conceal himself!
She had just felt that immense power! Even her sister had fallen, so she had to be extremely careful. Besides, Orochimaru's strange weapon was smoking, and he was rubbing his shoulder!
As long as I sneak up to Uchiha Kō, grab the Dragon Pearl, and run, I'll be the ultimate victor!
Tagitsuhime hurriedly shouted, "Be careful! Sister Tianxin used her innate ability, Concealment, to hide her form! You must be careful!"
She clutched her barely visible chest and shouted!
Tagorihime frowned, truly baffled as to why her usually obedient younger sister would defy her and her older sister, all for the sake of a human!
Manda's eyes narrowed instantly, and at the same time, his massive body shielded Uchiha Kō!
Orochimaru frowned after being reminded. "It's just invisibility, isn't it?" He placed his hand on the scope button on the Barrett.
The next moment, Barrett's scope lens changed to a brown lens, Orochimaru pressed his eye against the scope again!
The whole world turned orange-yellow, and all living things with heat became a kaleidoscope of colors.
Thermal imaging sight!
Orochimaru's technology tree has completely gone astray! It's too brutal!
Even if snakes are cold-blooded animals, they have nowhere to hide in front of a thermal imaging scope!
Orochimaru aimed at the vicinity of Uchiha Kō and Manda, and saw that Tagorihime was cautiously flying towards Manda. Manda was foolishly on high alert, unaware that Tagorihime was already close to the heart of Manda!
Orochimaru's lips curled into a smile, "Very well, Tagorihime, let you become the second half-immortal to die by the hand of this weapon!"
Tagorihime froze. What was happening? Why did a chill creep up her spine? Could it be...? She stopped and turned around abruptly!
The Barrett missile aimed at her body through the dark opening, and the next moment, with a loud bang, the red beam shot out again!
Tagorihime body downwards, causing Barrett's shot to miss her heart!
Pfft!
Unable to maintain her invisibility any longer, and feeling intense pain, her Chakra Tagorihime to become disordered, rendering her innate skills ineffective.
A bloody hole appeared below her collarbone. Her face was deathly pale as she stared at Orochimaru. Damn it, she finally understood why her sister had been defeated in one move!
That beam of light was Tailed Beast Bomb! A condensed version of the Tailed Beast Bomb! It was even the Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb, its Natural Chakra a terrifyingly violent aura!
Orochimaru sneered, "Tagorihime, you reacted quite quickly. However, if you take another step, I'll send you to meet your sister!"
Tagorihime's eyes dimmed, then she sat down and asked, "Orochimaru, what kind of weapon is that?"
"Lady Goddess, times have changed. As for the name of this weapon: Barrett! It was the blueprints and inspiration provided by the Lord Hokage!" Orochimaru said calmly.
Tagorihime's pupils contracted, and she immediately looked at Manda. Manda looked at Tagorihime without flinching. "You can't even beat Orochimaru, what are you looking at?!"
Besides, now that you're injured, I'm even less afraid of you. Orochimaru is over there holding down Barrett, what am I afraid of!
Tagorihime's eyes were filled with despair as she looked at the dead Ichikishimahime not far away, and she sneered, "Heh, how absurd!"
Suddenly, a huge sound came from the direction of the White Snake Sage —BOOM!
Immediately afterwards, the enormous figure of the White Snake Sage flew towards Orochimaru and his group at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye!
"Immortal!" Tagitsuhime flew up and stopped the White Snake Sage, who looked into the distance with fear in his eyes.
The Otsutsuki Nu who had fallen down had now risen, his light had dissipated, and in its place, endless wedges covered his body.
Those wedges, bearing various scripts, were branded onto the body of the Otsutsuki Nu.
Otsutsuki Nu's hair turned gray, his eyes gleamed with gold, and an unparalleled aura of power emanated from his body!
"A clone of the Heavenly Dao! Damn it, Otsutsuki Nu is actually a clone of the Heavenly Dao! He's really ruthless! He turned his subordinates into clones of himself in the mortal realm!" The White Snake Sage saw through the man's identity at a glance!
Otsutsuki Nu slowly spoke, "You little snake, how dare you attack my representative! How utterly laughable!"
"Heavenly Dao, have you overstepped your bounds now?!" After becoming an immortal, the White Snake Sage gained some understanding of the Heavenly Dao.
"Crossing the line? Hahahaha! I protect the entire Ninja World. I'm just here to see what crossing the line means! But you, Ryūchi Cave, are using the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate immortality. What is your intention in disrespecting heaven?" Otsutsuki Nu laughed maniacally.
The White Snake Sage narrowed her eyes and looked at Otsutsuki Nu Otsutsuki Nu, who looked at her with disdain.
Suddenly, Otsutsuki Nu sensed something and then sneered, "Tsk tsk, one of your Three Divine Princesses from Ryūchi Cave is dead now!"
Upon hearing this White Snake Sage's pupils contracted. He looked down and saw Ichikishimahime lying motionless on the ground, a large hole torn open in her body, from which blood flowed continuously!
She felt an overwhelming sorrow, followed by a burning rage! "Who is it! Heavenly Dao! Is it you?!" The White Snake Sage transformed into her true form, a large bump bulging on her head, as if something was about to burst out!
Otsutsuki Nu's smile vanished, "Are you blind? I was fighting you the whole time, how could I have had time to kill her!"
Upon hearing this, the White Snake Sage froze, then looked down. Could it be that they had killed each other?
Orochimaru sneered, "I killed the White Snake Sage. Lady Goddess wanted to kill my Hokage, so I had no choice but to intervene!"
The White Snake Sage shuddered, as if it had aged considerably, and looked at Ichikishimahime with sorrow in its eyes.
As if lost in thought, Heavenly Dao looked down and sensed that Uchiha Kō's aura was steadily rising!
"Holy crap!" Otsutsuki Nu, possessed by the Heavenly Dao, immediately formed hand Hand Seals. Then, a huge hole tore open in the sky, and a large, emerald-green seal appeared from the sky, slowly falling and crashing down towards Manda!
Manda's pupils contracted. Damn it! His intuition told him that if he took this attack, not only would he not be able to protect Uchiha Kō, but he was definitely going to die!
Without saying a word, Orochimaru raised the Barrett and fired three shots in quick succession.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This bullet represents a Tailed Beast Bomb!
A powerful force struck the jade seal, shattering it with a single blow!
The green light emanating from the jade seal suddenly dimmed considerably!
Orochimaru's face lit up with joy, and he was about to fire again when, on the fourth shot, the Barrett exploded.
Bang!
Orochimaru was blasted away! But he quickly regained his footing and swallowed a pill!
His previously chaotic breathing gradually calmed down. He had forgotten that this Barrett was only a half-finished product and couldn't be fired continuously, otherwise it would easily explode!
As the jade seal slowly fell, a hint of joy appeared in the Heavenly Dao's eyes! He didn't expect this move to kill Uchiha Kō, because it was simply unrealistic!
However, if this interrupts Uchiha Kō's advancement, that would be too delightful!
Just as he was feeling smug, Manda felt a powerful force emanating from the body of Uchiha Kō, whom he was protecting!
Manda immediately left, Uchiha Kō stood up, opened his eyes, and looked at the Imperial Seal in the sky!
Suddenly, a crown appeared on Uchiha Kō's head. He raised his right hand, and the jade seal with a missing corner quickly shrank and landed in Uchiha Kō's hand!
The Heavenly Dao was dumbfounded. He had obtained this item from some ruins; it possessed a strong suppressive ability, and most importantly, it offered almost no resistance. It was a formidable magical artifact, so how could it have surrendered so readily?
Uchiha Kō's lips curled up as he looked at the jade seal, a surge of heroic spirit welling up within him.
Immediately following, dragon energy surged, Uchiha Kō soared into the sky. He stretched out his large hand and grabbed Otsutsuki Nu, who was then captured!
The Heavenly Dao frowned and prepared to withdraw, as it could not possess the body for too long. However, when it released its Power of the Deva Path, it suddenly discovered that it could not break free!
The power emanating from Uchiha Kō was actually able to contend with the Power of the Deva Path!
"Heavenly Dao, you must be very puzzled, right?" Uchiha Kō spoke slowly.
The Heavenly Dao remained silent, only looking at Uchiha Kō. Uchiha Kō laughed, "This world has not only the Heavenly Dao, but also the Earthly Dao and the Human Dao."
"I, Uchiha Kō, hereby declare that humanity shall be established and flourish, and shall stand on equal footing with the Heavenly Dao Uchiha Kō, holding the highest position!" As soon as Uchiha Kō finished speaking, a force descended from the sky and landed on him.
The Heavenly Dao's pupils widened in disbelief. "No, what bullshit humanity? I've never heard of it! You're lying! You're lying!"
Heavenly Dao's eyes widened in fury!
