Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

"Sister Yang!" Kailin looked around and shouted worriedly.

At this time, Mo Yan comforted her from the side: "Don't worry, since Yang said there is a way to defeat Yamata no Orochi, she will be fine."

"But, Sister Yang..." Kailin clenched her right hand and placed it on her chest worriedly, looking at the rolling quicksand again.

In the quicksand well, Yang gritted her teeth and struggled to maintain her balance. The rapidly flowing sand slid through her body like a blade. The suffocation, weightlessness, and falling made her feel dizzy for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.

In the manhole, I couldn't open my eyes and could only sense the location of the Yamata no Orochi by relying on the flow around me.

She endured the discomfort and focused all her energy on sensing the direction of the quicksand. Being in this dark and dangerous world of quicksand was like being in the deep sea, where every slight movement could become a key clue.

Finally, she felt the slightest deviation. She covered her eyes with her hands, squinting through her fingers. At that moment, the snake's hideous face appeared in the sand pool, its eight necks encircling her like a giant net.

The big snake's tongue kept moving in and out, and a fishy smell hit my face. Its cold vertical pupils were full of murderous intent.

Seeing this, she not only did not panic, but smiled slightly, because she knew that the time had come.

At this moment, the eight snake heads opened their holes at the same time and moved towards the center. Yang felt the flow around him, and he easily avoided the attacks of all the snake heads by gently turning sideways.

Seeing that it had failed, the snake twisted its body again and wandered around. It stopped behind Yang and thrust out one of its heads first. But this time, Yang had no intention of dodging.

She held the spear in front of her, and the moment the snake's head thrust forward, she firmly blocked its mouth. The next second, the remaining snake heads rushed forward, completely surrounding Yang in an outflanking manner.

However, Yang had already made a plan. Just when the other snake heads were about to touch her, she suddenly exerted force, summoned several thorns, and wrapped herself in them.

The thorns acted like a rattan ball, not only blocking the quicksand but also protecting the snake from harm. However, the thorny vines pricked the snake's mouth, causing sores everywhere.

But despite the prick in its mouth, Yamata no Orochi had no intention of letting Yang go.

It bit the rattan ball frantically, making a series of dull thuds and roars. Each bite was like a tidal wave, causing the rattan ball to tremble slightly, but the seemingly slender but extremely tough thorns always stubbornly protected Yang.

Seeing this, Yang smiled slightly and took out the blood-red poison needle that he had concentrated earlier. He then transferred the elemental power from it and fused it to the surrounding vines.

"I admit that as a monster born during the catastrophe, you are very strong. Unfortunately, you have chosen the wrong opponent!"

clatter-

In the blink of an eye, the thorns on the thorns separated from the vines, and under the infection of blood and poison, they turned into thousands of sharp thorns, piercing each snake head.

The blood and poison intertwined, corroding each other, causing the snake to let out bursts of extremely shrill roars, mad and painful.

The eight snake necks twisted frantically, trying to get rid of the deadly spikes, but the spikes were like a thorn in the flesh, deeply embedded in its skin. With the erosion of quicksand, the more it struggled, the deeper the spikes penetrated.

The sand pool that was originally used to hide himself suddenly became a purgatory for punishing himself. He was in excruciating pain, and despite his frantic struggle, he was powerless to turn the situation around.

Finally, it attempted to break free from the cage, leave the sand pit, and return to the surface. Yang seized the opportunity and used elemental power from within to push the vine ball, trapping himself right in the middle of one of the giant snakes.

Just like that, the snake head soared into the sky with a curtain of sand, and reappeared in front of Mo Yan and Kailin with Yang.

"Wow! Why is this monster here again?" Kailin was startled by the huge snake that suddenly rushed out. "But why does this guy look even worse than before?"

Looking around, the snake's body was covered in sores. Its massive body had been ravaged by the blood thorns, leaving not only its eight heads but also its body, which had been hidden in the sand, now exposed to the surface.

At this moment, Mo Yan pointed at the vine ball in the snake's mouth and shouted, "It's Yang! I told him he's okay!"

"Ah? Let me see, it's true!" Karen said excitedly.

Yang waved her arm in the snake's mouth, and the thorns used to protect herself broke open at this moment, turning into three poisonous guns that she threw into the sand pool.

As the big snake landed on the ground, in the blink of an eye, the poison spear burst out with tremendous power in the sand pool, turning into thousands of thorns that rushed up again and pierced its body in an instant.

Yang Ping landed smoothly and said contemptuously, "Using poison in front of me is simply self-defeating!"

hiss...

The big snake hissed hoarsely, and its body, pierced by thorns, continued to twist in its dying struggle.

Yang turned around and snapped her fingers again.

In an instant, blood splattered, and countless wounds appeared on the snake's body. The poisonous elements spread wildly along the wounds, melting muscles and corroding tendons and bones wherever they touched. As the spikes gushed out wildly, the snake's vaunted venom also transformed into a cocoon-like poison, mercilessly piercing its body.

The Yamata no Orochi let out a final desperate roar, and then fell completely silent.

Finally, after confirming that the monster before them had completely lost all signs of life, Mo Yan and Kailin ran towards Yang with peace of mind.

"As expected of Sister Yang, you're so amazing!" Kailin came to her and said excitedly.

"Yes, such a powerful beast was defeated in one go." Mo Yan nodded.

"Yeah, and when you fell into the quicksand just now, I was almost scared. Fortunately, you are okay." Kailin said with a smile, putting her hands on her hips.

Hearing this, Yang folded his arms and said, "I admit, this action is a bit risky, but if we don't do this, how can we lure it into taking the bait?"

After saying that, she looked at the Yamata-no-Orochi behind her again. Although the giant beast had lost its vitality, its huge body still made people feel their hair stand on end.

"But it's too dangerous for you to do this," Mo Yan said.

"Oh, really?" Yang turned to look at Mo Yan and replied, "In the past, in order to find supplies, we had to step into dangerous areas that we had never set foot in. For me, this kind of situation is already commonplace."

"Ah this..."

Hearing this, the two looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Sigh, I really don't know whether I should say it was due to the pressure of life or what, anyway, it's really hard to imagine what she went through in the past...

Mo Yan had no choice but to change the subject. He sighed and said, "But seeing how relaxed you are, I feel like you can handle it even without us."

Yang lowered his head and thought for a moment before replying, "That's true, but if it were just me, it would probably be even more difficult than it is now. Without Kailin's long-range artillery support, how could Yamata no Orochi easily reveal its weakness? And there's also your 'blood'. As I said at the beginning, it's difficult to suppress its regeneration ability with my poison alone."

Kailin put her hands on her hips and looked at Mo Yan and said, "That's true. You should stop devaluing yourself here."

At this time, Yang asked again: "By the way, why did you suddenly change the way you address me?"
