Chapter 512

Numbers meant nothing to them.

Without cultivating immortality, one remains an ant in the end.

Watching Osial, who was being suppressed by Miss Miss Keqing to the point of being unable to lift his head, Miss Miss Shenhe felt her worries dissipate.

Although the four of them—Lady Lady Ningguang and the others—were only at the mid-stage of Essence Refinement, their cultivation techniques were each stronger than the last.

Osial might still be putting up a hard fight, but there was no longer any chance of a comeback.

With that, Miss Miss Shenhe turned her attention toward Beisht.

By comparison, the battle on Beisht's side was likely more dangerous.

After all, Chongyun and the others had not been cultivating for very long.

Just a moment ago, Beisht had been sent flying by a stray strike from her, and just as the creature tried to charge back in, it was entangled by Seeing Seeing Beidou and the others.

At this moment, they had already fallen into a bitter struggle.

Of course, for Seeing Seeing Beidou and the others, it probably didn't count as a bitter struggle.

After all, they had the numbers, and every one of them was quite ferocious.

Seeing Seeing Beidou's body was wreathed in thick mist, with her True Essence forming an impenetrable shield around her.

Behind her, the phantom of a Divine Elephant grew increasingly substantial.

Watching Beisht, who was still trying to charge toward Osial to save him, Seeing Seeing Beidou clicked her tongue.

"You're making it look like we're the villains here! You big lug..."

"Just... stay put for me!"

Seeing Seeing Beidou stomped hard on the air, clasped her hands into a fist, and swung it fiercely at Beisht.

Tiny as she was against this massive monster, it was just like when she had faced Haishan back in the day.

But the final result was similar; the only difference was the process.

The moment Seeing Seeing Beidou charged toward Beisht, the Divine Elephant behind her seemed to let out a roar toward the heavens.

It followed Seeing Seeing Beidou's charge with steps that shook the world.

In the eyes of onlookers, it appeared as if an indescribable primordial Divine Elephant had fiercely slammed into Beisht.

Not satisfied, Seeing Seeing Beidou struck with lightning speed, grabbed Beisht's tail, and with all her might, repeatedly smashed the creature against the sea.

Unlike the ethereal, immortal style of the others, Seeing Seeing Beidou's combat style could only be described as brutal.

Yet, the more she fought this way, the more it made one's blood boil.

At the very least, the people of Liyue were already enthralled.

305. Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Force, Seeing Seeing Beidou Uproots the Willow

In just this short while, every person in Liyue had realized it.

Including Seeing Seeing Beidou and the others, this group led by Lady Lady Ningguang wasn't really fighting at all.

They had simply found a qualified punching bag and were taking the opportunity to familiarize themselves with their own abilities.

For instance, Miss Miss Keqing, after testing the Ten Thousand Sword Art, had switched to Sword-Controlling Demon Subjugation and the Heavenly Dipper Sword.

Hu Tao, after playing with the Ten Thousand Ghost Record, had moved on to using various incantations.

Even Lady Lady Yelan and the others were seizing the chance to hone their various arts.

If the people of Liyue could see it, those on the Jade Chamber naturally saw it even more clearly.

To find such a perfect sparring partner to hone their arts before heading to the Nine Nether Secret Realm—

it was like a pie falling from the sky.

Never mind Tartaglia and Alhaitham, who had just joined Shushan and were in the most need of combat to familiarize themselves with their arts.

Even Diluc and the others, who had joined Shushan some time ago, were envious.

Not to mention Beisht—it was too fragile and not fun enough.

But Osial was different!

Osial was thick-skinned and tough, and with the authority of the sea, it was hard to kill.

Crucially, its strength was also high, perfectly sufficient for those in the late stage of Essence Refinement to hone their skills.

Plus, when dealing with Osial, there was no need to worry about holding back killing moves.

If this wasn't a perfect sparring partner, what was?

Although one could also spar to familiarize themselves with arts at Shushan, it was ultimately just practice, not a life-or-death duel.

Tartaglia's Reverse Blood Demon Blade couldn't be used, and many of Diluc's killing moves were also restricted.

That made sparring feel somewhat constrained.

But going to the Nine Nether Secret Realm inherently required life-or-death combat; how could one lack experience?

Facing Osial, there was no need to hold back, no need to worry about losing.

Such a perfect meat shield...

"Sigh..."

Tartaglia sighed again, looking longingly at Osial, who was being beaten to a pulp not far away.

A hearty, exhilarating battle was unfolding, yet he couldn't join in—wasn't this killing him?

But with the Cryo Archon watching, he really didn't dare to defy Seeing Seeing Zhongli's wishes.

"Senior Sister Miss Miss Keqing has already started honing her Heavenly Dipper Sword on Osial. It's clear that this kind of battle has given her quite a harvest."

"So envious..."

Tartaglia watched the scene with a heavy heart, and a moment later, he turned back to look at Seeing Xiao and the others.

Unwilling to give up, he asked:

"Senior Brother Seeing Xiao, are there any other sealed Archons in Liyue right now? I can help take care of them."

Seeing Xiao pondered for a moment and shook his head.

"Basically, all the Archons were suppressed by Headmaster Seeing Seeing Zhongli back then; only some remnants of their souls remain."

"Junior Sister Lisa might find them useful, but they're of no use to you."

Tartaglia pursed his lips and looked expectantly at Venti.

"Then what about Mondstadt? I heard there's still the soul of an ancient Archon, Andrius, in Mondstadt..."

Venti's face darkened, and he glared at him.

"Andrius is my friend!"

Lisa chuckled to herself; if Andrius were fair game, she would have made a move long ago—it wouldn't have been Tartaglia's turn.

"Uh... then Inazuma and Sumeru..."

Tartaglia still wouldn't give up and looked at Ayaka and Tighnari.

"There really aren't any Archons left in Inazuma."

Kujou Sara hurriedly interrupted Tartaglia; if a battle-hungry guy like this went over...

Just look at the battlefield in the distance.

If cultivators started a war, they could sink a continent of Inazuma in minutes; she wouldn't dare let Tartaglia go there.

"I have heard of one in Sumeru..."

Alhaitham pondered thoughtfully for a moment and said softly:

"I heard that in the desert, there is an ancient Long Wang..."

"That is Apep, the Dendro Long Wang among the seven ancient Dragon Kings."

Neuvillette replied calmly to Tartaglia, saying softly:

"I don't really support you going to find him. For one, Apep is very strong, and for another... he is considered a former colleague of mine."

"If possible in the future, I would like to recruit him into Shushan to add to the strength of our sect."

Upon hearing Neuvillette say this, Tartaglia felt as if he had lost his dream, sitting there decadently without a word.

"However..."

Suddenly, Neuvillette changed the subject and said softly:

"In the Primordial Sea of Fontaine, there is a big guy whose strength is slightly higher than even top-tier Archons."

"At the very least, it is much stronger than Osial."

Immediately, Tartaglia became excited.

"Can I go fight it?"

"No!"
