Chapter 298

To cooperate with Morax, Azhdaha and the various adepti truly gave their all to put on a show.

They all unleashed the strength they were supposed to display, though of course, it was certainly inferior to their true current power.

Because of Mu Yang, the erosion on them had been resolved, and coupled with their cultivation of immortal arts, their strength had improved to varying degrees; however, they could not go all out now, as this was, after all, a performance.

At this moment, it was naturally necessary to help the Geo Archon demonstrate his power.

Even Azhdaha restrained his own strength at this time to cooperate with Morax's act.

Moreover, it was perfectly normal that they couldn't take down Morax, as it was a widely accepted fact that Azhdaha was on par with Morax.

Now that the Geo Archon had gone "mad," that desperate fighting style naturally made Azhdaha and the others cautious.

After both sides had finished their feigned battle, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles appeared.

"What are you here for?" Seeing the arrival of the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, Azhdaha's tone was "startled," as the Heavenly Principles were not very friendly toward them, the elemental dragon sovereigns.

But it was also impossible for her to wipe them out completely, as they, the dragon sovereigns, were the true foundation.

If the dragon sovereigns were to vanish entirely, the elemental system of the Teyvat continent would collapse.

Although, judging by the current situation, even if the ley lines were to have major problems, it seemed it wouldn't matter much anymore.

After all, spiritual veins had already begun to appear!

The power system of the Teyvat continent was destined to change, and even upgrade, in the future.

Now, spiritual energy was gradually appearing between heaven and earth; in some special places, such as Jueyun Karst, which received special care from Mu Yang, there would be much more spiritual energy in the future, and many wild beasts in the mountains there would eventually transform and become immortals.

The emergence of immortals was actually very demanding; there were not many immortals left in Does Does Liyue now, as most of them had fallen.

It was mainly because the birth of an immortal was extremely difficult. During the Archon War, the ley lines were chaotic and active; at that time, there were numerous natural disasters, monsters, and Archons. It was chaotic, but for the spirits of the mountains and wilds, it was definitely the best opportunity.

Relying on the active elemental energy, animals like Cloud Retainer gained the best environment for cultivation.

And like the present, it was actually no longer particularly suitable for cultivating immortal arts.

It could be said that after the Seven Archons system was established, the activity of the ley lines dropped significantly, and Teyvat had effectively entered a Dharma-ending age.

But later, with the formation of spiritual veins, the chance of mountain spirits and monsters becoming immortals would increase; of course, the possibility of them becoming demons would also greatly increase.

As things stood, Azhdaha and the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles should be considered mortal enemies—well, at least on the surface.

The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles glanced at Morax, who was still "going mad," and gave a light snort: "Even the Geo Archon has been polluted by the power of the Abyss.

I will take him away to resolve the Abyssal pollution on him, and in a few days, he will return!"

After speaking, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles extended her palm, and a large number of black cubes appeared around Morax's massive body, wrapping toward him.

Seeing that he was about to be sealed, Morax let out a roar of fury, releasing an incomparably terrifying aura as he attempted to resist. Endless elemental energy erupted from Morax's body, and in almost an instant, a large number of stone mountains formed under his outburst.

Even Asmoday's seal was blocked by Morax for a moment.

"Help me control him, if you want him to be alright!" Seeing this, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles' eyelids twitched, and she said coldly.

This time, it was to help Morax establish his status as a powerhouse, but didn't she need to maintain her own?

If she couldn't even handle a Morax, should she even continue being the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles?

However, Asmoday also knew that at this time, she, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, also needed to appear weak to the enemy.

Suppressing the Morax of the past would have been troublesome for Asmoday, but not difficult.

And now, Morax's strength had improved, but at the same time, Asmoday's strength had also improved.

This time, Asmoday was also here to show her own weakness.

If she appeared weak, the Abyss Order and those Abyssal forces would become increasingly rampant, which could be considered a good thing for Teyvat.

Hearing Asmoday's words, the Adepti turned their gazes toward Azhdaha.

This was a play, but a play had to be performed in full.

As subordinates of the Geo Archon, they naturally couldn't help the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles deal with their own Geo Archon.

Although the Geo Archon could be considered a subordinate of the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, to the Adepti, they only recognized the Geo Archon; as for others, let alone the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, even the Heavenly Principles themselves wouldn't matter.

Of course, this was only on the surface; in reality, they still highly approved of Mu Yang.

Under Mu Yang's leadership, Teyvat was getting better and better. The world that was originally destined to perish now had vitality. As long as Mu Yang wasn't trying to deal with the Geo Archon, they, the Adepti, would naturally support Mu Yang.

But others didn't know these things, so they needed to consult Azhdaha's opinion. After all, Azhdaha was the Geo Archon's kin, possessed strength comparable to the Geo Archon, and was the only one among all the "Adepti" in Does Does Liyue who had his own people.

This was a transcendent existence; saying Azhdaha was the leader of the Adepti was not a problem at all.

At this moment, with the Geo Archon going mad, the Adepti naturally needed Azhdaha to take command.

"I will go in to help suppress Morax! You assist the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles!" Azhdaha took a deep look at Asmoday in the high sky, then launched a physical charge at Morax, slamming into his body and using his own flesh to withstand the power erupting from Morax.

Seeing this, Asmoday hurriedly sealed both of them in one go.

This left the Adepti looking at each other in dismay. If they didn't know this was a play, they would have suspected that Asmoday had come to Does Does Liyue to go shopping, buying one and getting one free, intending to pack up and take away Does Does Liyue's high-end combat power in one breath.

"After the Abyssal power is purged, I will send Morax back. During this time, watch over Does Does Liyue well." After Asmoday gave a cold instruction, she dragged the huge black-red sealing grid toward the location of Celestia.

The Adepti left at the scene looked at each other; she was truly worthy of being the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, cold enough indeed.

But they weren't very angry; Asmoday, as the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, was already giving them face by coming out to act at this time.

They couldn't ask for too much.

And all of this was seen by certain Abyss Mages.

On Teyvat, almost all Abyss Mages were related to the Abyss, and most of them were sent to the continent by the Abyss Order.

The Abyss Order had these Abyss Mages observe Teyvat.

【Azhdaha: "How was it? Pretty good, right?

This time, I even got myself sealed!"】

【Seeing Seeing Keqing: "So what exactly did you perform? I saw a huge red grid flying toward the sky from here in Does Does Liyue Harbor."】

【Regarding Regarding Zhongli: "That sealed me and Azhdaha...

How is the situation in Does Does Liyue Harbor now?"】

【Hearing Hearing Ganyu: "It was barely possible to maintain order before, but because your battle was too intense, and the symptoms of you being sealed were too obvious, it's chaotic again now...

Many dark things are starting to emerge."】

【Mu Yang: "Would you believe it? I was walking on the street and actually got robbed."】

【Raiden Ei: "Is Does Does Liyue that chaotic?"】

【Venti: "Which brave soul is so bold?"】

【Madame Ping: "Every place has good people and darkness. Perhaps, Mr. Mu Yang, you made too many people envious?"】

【Mu Yang: "I can understand that. Anyway, the person had their bones dismantled by Shenhe directly. Speaking of which, this is the first time Shenhe has made a move since becoming my bodyguard.

If it weren't for Kamisato Ayaka's dissuasion, I would suspect she might have buried the person alive.

I highly suspect this isn't the first time Shenhe has buried someone."】

【Cloud Retainer: "It's not the first time. Previously, many Treasure Hoarders would run to Jueyun Karst to cause trouble, wanting to find treasure. Many times, Shenhe would take action, dig a hole, and bury them, leaving only their heads outside, and wouldn't let them leave until five days later.

Because of Shenhe's behavior, there are very few Treasure Hoarders in Jueyun Karst now."】

【It's you, Baby Shen!】

【Mu Yang: "I see, that's understandable.

Even for desperate people like Treasure Hoarders, after being treated like that, they wouldn't dare to come back a second time.

That is the process of slowly experiencing death."】

【Never underestimate the despair of being buried alive; even if your head is outside, the person themselves is in utter despair.】

【Didn't expect that Shenhe, who can crush boulders on her chest, would have such a side.】

【Seems quite cute.】

【Hearing Hearing Ningguang: "How should we explain this now?"】】
