Chapter 664: Chapter 665 Destruction_1

"This is..."

Guo Huai stared wide-eyed at the surroundings; when that roar from the Deep Sea sounded once again, the environment around them abruptly changed, one second they were in a normal hall, and the next they seemed to have arrived in the depths of the sea.

"Delong Tower’s power, after all, is the Sea God’s, its strength is still somewhat diminished when not in the ocean."

Feng Yuan explained, indicating that Delong Tower meant serious business by doing this. Rubbing his temples with a headache, Feng Yuan hadn’t expected Delong Tower to get so easily angered.

Agunas’s Illusion flicked its tail and said,

"What do you plan to do now? If it goes all out and isn’t careful, maybe Omeilia won’t be completely destroyed, but this area will be in danger."

Looking towards Delong Tower, Feng Yuan said with some guilt,

"I believe it should be able to restrain itself from going too far..."

"Do you believe that?"

"Anyway, if it doesn’t work out, I’ll just have Lorraine Tower restore this area, won’t I!"

Feng Yuan said self-deprecatingly. He really had no better plan; Delong Tower had come at his invitation, so it wasn’t as if he could prevent it from doing this or that, like controlling a child. Moreover, Feng Yuan believed that Delong Tower, having lived for so long, wouldn’t be foolish enough to actually rip apart this region.

The water currents around them were rapidly changing, the turbulent flow continuously interfering with the actions of the metal behemoth. All of the Metal Rings had transformed into golden orbs, their searing brightness constantly released as if each was a mini-sun trying to evaporate the seawater filling the hall.

Feeling the terrifying heat, Mo Li exclaimed in surprise,

"Is this the power of the Nien Wheel when used for attack?"

"Roughly so. As a Divine Artifact that controls celestial phenomena, that thing’s guided power is indeed quite magical, but that’s about it."

Delong Tower shook its body violently, and a cobalt blue light ring slowly spread around it. With the appearance of the first ring, every time Delong Tower shook its body, another cobalt blue ring would radiate outward.

The light rings, dragging luminous tails, spread slowly, each one in a different direction. Watching this dazzling scene, Mo Ling said in wonder,

"So beautiful~"

The seemingly harmless rings, upon contact with the Metal Ring, caused rapid signs of seawater erosion to appear on them.

The metal behemoth had a layer of golden light flowing over its body, countering the light rings released by Delong Tower. Under the assault of the rings, the Metal Rings swiftly rusted over and quickly lost power, being swept away by the changing currents.

Seeing that the metal behemoth was unaffected, Delong Tower opened its massive jaws and bit into the metal creature directly. Watching the scattering metal fragments, Guo Huai said with some astonishment,

"How can Delong Tower..."

"Hand-to-hand combat isn’t right? I think it’s fine."

Feng Yuan said calmly, a sphere of emerald Barrier separated the seawater outside. Although the seawater did not affect the transmission of sound, everyone understood that it was real seawater, not an Illusion.

"It feels strange..."

Most Spirit Beasts would not engage in close combat, only the combat-type would do such. Of course, even among the combat-types, many use weapons or release peculiar things like energy blades or sword qi to fight.

Initially, Delong Tower gave the impression of being a Divine Beast that would hide in the distance and release powerful moves; at least, it did not seem to have an obvious close combat ability like the White Wolf Deity.

"What’s so strange? At least it’s not just casting light spells and rain, and then leveling up skills like Whirlwind Slash and unsheathing strikes for one-handed or two-handed weapons, right?"

Guo Huai glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"Are you talking about yourself?"

"Hey! I’m not that biased!"

Xiao Ji, nestled in Feng Yuan’s arms, discontentedly looked at the water outside. At this moment, neither the White Wolf Deity nor Feng Yuan continued to make a move, letting Delong Tower freely attack the metal behemoth.

Guo Huai said with some confusion,

"Are the Divine Beasts that weak?"

"What are you trying to say?"

"Why does it seem so difficult to fight this mechanical creation?"

Xiao Ji tried to glare at Guo Huai discontentedly, but since the latter was behind Feng Yuan and Xiao Ji did not dare to move while nestled in Feng Yuan’s arms, it definitely did not want to experience the feeling of being soaked by seawater.

"How to put it... there’s no need. If they went all out, just elementalizing would take care of this thing."

"But such ultimate moves aren’t very practical, as their high power means they don’t differentiate between friend and foe."

Feng Yuan shrugged helplessly and said, though Delong Tower currently almost exclusively used water-based Spirit Beast moves, Feng Yuan did not doubt Delong Tower’s capabilities in the slightest.

"Strictly speaking, the reason why the power of their ultimate moves seems small is that they need to control their power to avoid damaging the surrounding environment," said Agunas’s Illusion as it flicked its tail.

"Though that might be the case, it seems more like it’s just playing around now."

After all, Agunas was a Divine Beast of the same caliber as Delong Tower and could naturally guess how much strength Delong Tower could wield in such an environment. Even if Delong Tower’s trump cards were almost all area attacks, it still shouldn’t be like it is now.

"It’s probably been bored in the Starlit Sea for too long, who knows if they usually go to visit each other."

"Not sure, want to ask?"

"Forget it."

Feng Yuan had no place to comment on the Divine Beasts’ preferences, as it was not his place to interfere, and moreover, they were now in history; should any significant changes occur to those Divine Beasts, it could cause complications.

After a while, it seemed that Delong Tower had grown tired of its play, finally swiping its tail to shatter the metal giant into pieces.

The surrounding seawater gradually receded, leaving behind a messy hall and a heap of scrap metal. Delong Tower’s attack had completely dismantled the metal giant into parts. At that moment, a burst of triumphant music sounded, startling everyone.

Looking around, Guo Huai suddenly realized and glared at Feng Yuan, saying

"Was this your doing?!"

"Doing what?"

"That sound effect!"

"Don’t you think something is in order to celebrate finally cracking the mechanism?"

Feng Yuan said with a mischievous smile. Guo Huai sighed with dissatisfaction and said

"I don’t think so. Do you think this is a game?"

"What’s the difference?"

Feng Yuan chuckled, glancing at Guo Huai and said

"We should be safe now, right?"

"Hard to say, but the Nien Wheel is definitely gone..."

Feng Yuan looked at the Nien Wheel with some disappointment. It was covered in rust, and without asking, Feng Yuan could guess that it must have been inadvertently damaged by Delong Tower’s recently released aura. However, considering the origin of the object, Feng Yuan had no intention of repairing it.

"It’s better off destroyed, after all, it is a Divine Artifact from the Mythical Era. It’s best not to leave it behind."

The Illusion of Agunas wagged its tail jauntily as it spoke, and Guo Huai, somewhat puzzled, said

"Why? Isn’t it quite useful?"

The Illusion of Agunas glanced at Guo Huai and said,

"What use is it? Spirit Beasts have celestial skills; it’s merely more convenient, that’s all."

"Moreover, I suspect ordinary people who get their hands on it might become arrogant enough to challenge Divine Beasts."

"That..."

Guo Huai scratched his head, not knowing how to refute, while Liu Wenli on the side nodded in agreement, harboring no good feelings towards the Noble class.

"It is quite useful strategically."

Hua Yiyou spoke up in rebuttal, remembering something, while Feng Yuan glanced at Hua Yiyou and said,

"Are you planning to take that thing back?"

"But to be honest, I really don’t see what use it could be to you."

"Are celestial phenomena truly useful to you?"

Feng Yuan knew that Hua Yiyou was preparing for the upcoming war, but he really had no intention of letting Mo Li and the others take the Nien Wheel with them.

Sensing Feng Yuan’s discontent, Hua Yiyou laughed lightly and said,

"It might be useful, but it’s not essential. Is that passage behind it the exit?"

"It should be."

Feng Yuan looked at the channel from which the metal giant had emerged. Although he felt the likelihood of traps was high, they had little choice unless the White Wolf Deity and Delong Tower could just make a hole and get out that way.

As much as Feng Yuan would have preferred the White Wolf Deity to make a hole for their escape, seeing that even the Nien Wheel had emerged in this wretched place, it was risky that digging through might lead to more strange encounters.

"Trash from the Mythical Era..."

Feng Yuan massaged his temples with a sense of resignation, and at this point, Delong Tower seemed to have heard something and said in surprise,

"How is that possible?"
