Even with a single drop of blood, I will still be invincible!

Immortal Mountain, inside the mountain.

Su Mubai leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked thoughtful.

"So, you need to absorb seven more sources of power to regain your peak strength?"

"Yes."

Orochi nodded repeatedly: "As long as I regain my strength, I will gather an army of ferocious beasts to attack the capital and destroy the Yin Ninja Society!"

After a pause, it added, "That way you won't have to worry about the Yinren Secret Society's wanted notice."

Su Mubai narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on the Yamata no Orochi, but he did not speak.

He didn't have the time or inclination to help Orochi collect the remaining seven sources of power.

Although he has the talent [Cataclysm], he only needs to collect one fragment for each source of power.

But that's also troublesome, because even Orochi himself doesn't know which bosses have the fragments of the source of power inside them.

Only after the fragments are merged can he sense their exact location.

Su Mubai is now considering whether to directly use [Cataclysm] to upgrade Orochi to the Mythical level.

Because he was unsure whether Orochi's strength would return to its peak after he advanced for free.

After all, there are differences between mythical-level beings.

Thinking of this, Su Mubai had a sudden thought.

[Catastrophe]!

[Target: Yamata no Orochi]

[Hint: Please select the promotion rank, Tier 1/Tier 2] (Click to view details)

Option 1: Advance to the Mythical-level BOSS [Orochi], no cost.

Option 2: Ascend to the Saint-level BOSS [Serpent of the End], consuming 10,000 Soul Crystals.

Without making a choice, Su Mubai's gaze was fixed on option one.

The next moment, the specific information about his promotion appeared in his field of vision.

[Upon advancement, Orochi's severe injuries will be healed, and he will regain his lost power, reaching the peak of the Mythical level.]

This panel is visible only to him.

From Orochi's perspective, seeing Byakuya staring straight at him, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine for some reason.

Just as it was somewhat at a loss, Su Mubai suddenly spoke up: "Do you have a deep grudge against the Yinren Secret Society?"

"We are mortal enemies!"

"As soon as I recover, the first thing I will do is destroy the Yin Ninja Secret Society!"

"If it weren't for the secret meeting of the Yin Ninja, we wouldn't have been sleeping here for so long!"

When Yamata no Orochi mentioned the Yin Ninja Secret Meeting, it immediately became agitated. Its sixteen vertical pupils flashed with ferocious light, and its eight heads gritted their teeth.

Is there such a deep grudge?

Then this will be easy to handle.

Su Mubai nodded slightly and asked again, "How long will it take you to gather the army of ferocious beasts?"

"one day!"

The Yamata no Orochi's eyes lit up: "In just one day, I can summon countless ferocious beasts and launch a direct attack on the entire Sakura Kingdom!"

"The entire cherry blossom kingdom?"

Su Mubai was slightly taken aback.

He had thought that Orochi would only attack the capital after it recovered, but now it seems that this main quest will bring about a monster siege that will cover the entire Sakura Kingdom!

However, this had no impact on him.

No matter how heavy the losses are in the Cherry Blossom Kingdom, it has nothing to do with him.

"You can start gathering your army of ferocious beasts now. I'll be waiting for you in the capital."

Su Mubai slowly stood up, waved his hand to put away the sofa, and summoned a portal by holding the [Ring of Time and Space].

"Now?"

Orochi looked puzzled: "I haven't recovered yet, so even if I wanted to summon them, I couldn't."

It did want to summon it, but its strength hadn't recovered, and the ferocious beast wouldn't listen to it.

Seeing that Su Mubai was about to leave, Orochi became somewhat anxious.

No, you should give me a straight answer on whether you'll help me find the source of power or not!

Just as it opened its mouth to confirm, the Yamata no Orochi suddenly froze.

Because Su Mubai glanced at it casually before stepping into the portal.

[Catastrophe]!

"Advanced to the next rank!"

hum~

As the portal closed, only the bewildered Yamata no Orochi remained inside the Immortal Mountain.

At that moment, it felt a powerful energy suddenly emerge within its body.

This energy is rapidly increasing its power!

As its severely injured body began to recover, Orochi also sensed the presence of 95 power fragments!

"Hiss~ Just who is this Bai Ye? How could he possess such unpredictable and mysterious abilities!"

"Wait, how can there be 95 fragments? The Source of Poison has returned; there should only be 84 fragments of the Source of Power in the outside world, right?"

A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the Yamata no Orochi, but it quickly forgot about it.

Because the strength recovered too quickly!

As eight lights flashed, the body of the Yamata no Orochi involuntarily reverted to its original form and began to rapidly grow larger and larger.

The once spacious interior of the mountain quickly became somewhat cramped.

Rumble…

The entire Immortal Mountain shook violently, as if a major earthquake had occurred.

The wild monsters on the mountain began to flee frantically. Although they did not know what was happening, they sensed a terrifying power resurfacing.

boom! ! !

A deafening roar resounded as the nearly 10,000-meter-tall Immortal Mountain began to collapse, with eight enormous, ferocious snake heads bursting forth from within the mountain.

On the other side, eight enormous snake tails burst through the mountain wall, sweeping across it casually and cutting the entire Immortal Mountain in half.

Rumble…

The enormous body of the Yamata no Orochi, measuring ten thousand meters in length, was fully exposed between heaven and earth.

In an instant, mountains collapsed and floods broke through the dikes. Eight kinds of light shone brightly around him, like neon lights in the end times, making the sky look strange and colorful.

Although it has not yet reached its peak, Orochi has already entered the mythical level!

This also means that he has the ability to directly recall the fragments of the source of power!

"My power, heed the call, return!"

The Yamata no Orochi sensed the locations of the 95 fragments of the source of power and emitted a thunderous sound.

The next moment, within the Sakura Kingdom, all 94 epic-level bosses froze in shock.

Immediately afterwards, different colored lights emerged from the surface of each BOSS.

There is blue light representing the water element, red light representing the fire element, yellow light representing the earth element, cyan light representing the wind element, purple light representing the lightning element, black light representing the shadow element, and pink light representing the power of illusion.

A moment later, the light condensed into pearls of various colors, which then sped away through the air!

After having their source of power fragments extracted, these bosses immediately became listless and dispirited.

They were originally just Dark Gold-level BOSSes, but they were able to evolve because they devoured the power source fragments of Yamata no Orochi.

Although the source of power has been extracted, these bosses will soon drop in rank and return to Dark Gold level.

The reason there are only 94 bosses is because one of them has already been killed.
