Chapter 598
The vast and mighty East Sea aquatic race hissed and charged toward You Tianpeng.
The latter did not show weakness, sneering:
"The Ten Thousand Demon Mountains is not your territory, how dare you be so presumptuous?"
"Little ones! Follow this King and execute Ao Dong!"
The two top Great Demon Kings collided, and in an instant, the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains were turned upside down.
Countless unlucky small demons were swept into the collision and perished before they could escape.
The land of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains also began to crack, the sky shaking and the earth quaking.
A green figure hid in the shadows, quietly watching the two for a moment. After a long while, they silently bypassed them and hurried toward the Dragon Palace.
The Green Wind Ox, whom Zhongli viewed as a must-kill enemy, was already heading to the battlefield at this moment.
Dragon Palace.
The originally magnificent and splendid palace had been completely destroyed.
Remnants of Dragon Palace decorations were everywhere, and the sea that had been tilting down from the firmament had also ceased.
At the Dragon Palace, a bottomless abyss had been carved out.
Zhongli's Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear was held against the Turtle Prime Minister's neck; the latter was now on the verge of death.
He merely stared at Zhongli with eyes full of hatred.
"I didn't expect that after the disaster in the cultivation world, Shushan would still have a turning point..."
Zhongli said calmly:
"Shushan Dragon Head Peak, Zhongli."
"Good, good, good..."
The Turtle Prime Minister laughed, then said coldly:
"His Majesty will avenge me."
"It doesn't matter; you won't have the chance to see that day."
To prevent a situation like the one before in the Nine Serenities where he might self-destruct, Zhongli seized his demon core the moment he defeated him.
The current Turtle Prime Minister was already crippled.
His body began to decay into ash from the bottom up, and Zhongli watched with some regret.
The body of a peak Spirit Refinement and God Transformation demon king was also quite valuable.
But having obtained the demon core of a peak Spirit Refinement and God Transformation demon king, this trip was already not a loss.
Not to mention, there was also this old turtle's dragon-headed staff and that unknown small bell.
As long as he could bring them out, this trip would definitely be a massive profit.
Seeing that the Turtle Prime Minister was almost out of breath, Zhongli seized the time to say:
"Now, tell me the information about the Green Wind Ox, and I will give you a quick death."
The Turtle Prime Minister was already dying and could barely open his eyes, but upon hearing Zhongli ask about the Green Wind Ox...
He suddenly seemed to have a moment of clarity, staring fixedly at Zhongli.
After a long while, the Turtle Prime Minister laughed.
"You have your eyes on the Green Wind King!"
"That has nothing to do with you!"
Zhongli said coldly:
"Speak quickly, otherwise I don't mind searching your soul while you are still alive."
"Good, good, good!"
The Turtle Prime Minister acted as if he had heard something funny, his smile becoming increasingly manic.
"I will tell you... I will tell you everything! Without the slightest reservation..."
"As long as you dare to listen, dare to act..."
"Otherwise, you will forever hold onto an impossible hatred and resent yourself!"
Dragon Prison.
The battle here had also reached a stalemate.
Ningguang and the others, holding the Dragon Prison key, were blocked by General Golden Crab the moment they entered.
Alice and Ei took action to deal with him, while the remaining Furina and the Tsaritsa dealt with the others.
However, the army guarding the Dragon Prison was also quite numerous. If it weren't for Ganyu and Yae Miko holding Jiang Yan's magical treasures...
They wouldn't have been able to break into the Dragon Prison at all, and might even have been captured.
The great seal floated in the air, and the treasure-light flag shone brightly, forming an absolute defense that blocked the waves of attacking aquatic race.
But this was already the limit; they simply could not reach the Dragon Prison treasure vault under the impact of these dense demon troops.
Ningguang's face was somewhat livid. She had calculated against the Dragon Palace's Turtle Prime Minister and Ao Ming.
She had calculated that the vast majority of the army would be dispersed by them.
But she had forgotten one thing...
Even if a large portion of the troops here at the Dragon Prison were transferred away, the remaining people were still hundreds or thousands of times stronger than them.
There were quite a few experts at the Spirit Refinement and God Transformation stage, and as for those demon soldiers, they were mostly at the late and peak stages of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation.
This kind of strength was simply not something they could contend with.
In the end, their strength was insufficient.
They might seem peerless in Teyvat, all being top-tier experts roaming the world.
But that was Teyvat, not the cultivation world.
Even if the Nine Serenities secret realm was not a high-level world, it was still a cultivation world.
Moreover, the Dragon Palace had developed in the Nine Serenities for countless years; how could the strength they had accumulated be something they could contend with in a short time?
Right now, the situation had reached a stalemate.
Himeko had also truly witnessed the power struggles of the cultivation world; to be honest, it was not at all like the Honkai world fighting against Honkai.
In such a war against Honkai, Himeko would even want to say it was easy.
The battles here in the cultivation world simply made one feel despair at a single glance.
After resisting another wave of demon soldier impacts, Ganyu and Yae Miko were already somewhat exhausted.
Himeko took a look and said in a deep voice:
"Perhaps we should retreat for now."
"This Dragon Prison is not something we can break into in a short time. We have already obtained Ao Ming's space ring."
"We also obtained the Broken Jade Treasure Mirror, plus the demon cores and weapons of these small demons."
"I presume this can be considered a great harvest."
"If we continue to stalemate, the Dragon Palace reinforcements will return, plus Ao Dong..."
"We won't be able to escape."
Battles between cultivators could not be finished in a short while.
General Golden Crab was not a weakling like Ao Ming at the late Spirit Refinement and God Transformation stage, and he had been exhausted for three days.
General Golden Crab had been resting and building up his energy, and he was himself one of the strongest at the late Spirit Refinement and God Transformation stage.
Alice could win in a one-on-one fight, but that was not a battle that could end in a day or two.
As for Ei...
She had just come into contact with cultivation and could not fully unleash the strength of the late Spirit Refinement and God Transformation stage.
Right now, she was just providing help to Alice.
As for the Tsaritsa and the others, they were being held up by a bunch of Spirit Refinement and God Transformation experts, and the remaining Shushan disciples simply could not leave the defensive line constructed by Ganyu and the others.
To put it bluntly, there were too few people and too few experts.
If this continued, the Dragon Palace reinforcements would return, and Ao Dong would also come back.
By then, even Zhongli would find it hard to escape.
Ningguang and the others were very clear about this logic.
But...
