Within the Void Realm, Jing Qian, who had just successfully pulled off a sneak attack, wiped away a bead of sweat!

When he was observing the battle from across dimensions, he only felt the scene was grand and the results astonishing.

But when he truly escaped the void and went to the real world, directly facing the might of the Blue Blood great demon, he truly felt that extremely terrifying emotional baptism from the bottom of his heart.

It was a complete suppression of absolute life force, making Jing Qian almost unable to stand up or lift his sword!

Only after returning to the Void Realm did he adjust his state.

However, after the influence dissipated, Jing Qian felt his divine sense had become even more condensed, and his will more stable!

Instead, he felt a surge of eagerness to challenge.

Moreover, this trip out was not in vain at all. He held two Crocodile Dragon Teeth in his hands, each longer than his arm, looking like two sharp short knives.

These were the sharp teeth of a seventh-grade great demon, filled with Blue Blood Destiny Essence. The value of just these two teeth exceeded all of Jing Qian's possessions, excluding his family's inherited classics!

When the Ling Qu descended from the sky, that Crocodile Dragon, thinking its teeth and mouth were sharp, was so stubborn as to charge forward and take the damage head-on.

As a result, it was hammered into a daze, and two of its teeth were broken.

And Jing Qian, who was closely monitoring the entire battlefield, naturally acted decisively after the battle slightly eased, snatching these two dragon teeth.

This was even more ideal than the best result he had anticipated, and for a moment, he was quite excited!

Immediately, he continued to immerse his mind in the battlefield.

The surrounding seawater was pouring back into this empty space, and the underground water level was rising rapidly.

The entire seabed was almost leveled by the huge impact wave.

But the broken ship was surprisingly intact, which also greatly surprised Jing Qian.

He suddenly discovered that on the bow of the half-sunken broken ship, there was a thick, black anchor deeply buried in the earth's core.

This anchor was no ordinary object. After it was cast, it even withstood the terrifying impact of a seventh-grade great demon!

Only the cabins inside the ship became more dilapidated, while the outer shell remained unharmed!

Having experienced this great disaster, the extraordinary nature of this broken ship was further highlighted.

Just then, the three seventh-grade great demons, who had suffered some injuries, finally recovered and surrounded the Qu.

The Crocodile Dragon spoke:

"Qu Lord, this sea area is my fief. Are you trying to forge a death feud with me by acting like this?"

"This time I was careless and you succeeded in a sneak attack!"

"Don't think you'll have such an opportunity again in the future!"

After the Crocodile Dragon finished speaking, it didn't wait for the Qu's reaction and attacked the clam shell with hatred.

It first spat out magic power for a while, and seeing no effect, it moved closer and clawed and bit.

But it only left some shallow marks on the clam shell.

The more the Crocodile Dragon thought about it, the angrier it became. Not only were two of its teeth broken, and it suffered minor injuries.

More importantly, the Golden Dragon Carp within its domain was forcibly snatched away, which would have a huge impact on its path!

How could it tolerate this?

The Crocodile Dragon was truly enraged and prepared to use its ultimate technique!

It stopped moving and instead lay on the seabed, exhaling astonishing magical power. A massive amount of vital energy gathered towards its body. Even Jing Qian, watching from the Void Realm, could see the trajectory of the vital energy flowing around the Crocodile Dragon.

Just then, the Pink Great Turtle beside it also spoke:

"Crocodile Lord, it's just a Dragon Carp. Let the Qu Lord have it for now. There's no need to expend lifespan."

"It's not like us. It rarely moves on a normal day, making it harder to acquire resources."

"Now that it has obtained this Dragon Carp, it probably won't let go."

"It's not easy for us to accumulate lifespan, so let's not waste it on internal conflict here!"

With the Great Turtle's persuasion, the Crocodile Dragon's emotions also eased slightly, and its magical power aura gradually weakened.

The White Jade Lobster beside it also spoke:

"This Dragon Gate Grass Ball is a relic that appeared from the sunken ship of that Water Search Master, not something the Crocodile Lord planted."

"Since that's the case, it's only right for us to contend for this Golden Dragon Carp!"

"Since the Qu Lord succeeded, it naturally means it was more skilled. I'll head back first. Farewell!"

This Lobster had a somewhat cold and hard temperament. It actually ignored the battle and directly swam away into the water.

This change in the battlefield also made Jing Qian in the Void Realm quite regretful!

He had thought he could continue to patrol the battlefield of the Blue Blood great demons and pick up some more gains.

It would be best if he could witness a few great demons fight to the death, allowing him to pick up the soul of a Blue Blood great demon for free.

But unexpectedly, these great demon monsters, who looked terrifying and powerful, were actually so harmonious. They only sparred for a bit and then stopped fighting.

Fortunately, he had already gained something, so his mindset was very stable.

The Crocodile Dragon and the Great Turtle exchanged a few more words and then gave up the idea of continuing to fight.

Seeing this, the Pink Great Turtle also no longer lingered and swam away gracefully.

This vacuum zone in the seawater was also almost filled.

But just as the colorful clam in the very center was gradually being submerged by the seawater, and the Crocodile Dragon was also preparing to leave this depressing place.

Suddenly, a loud eagle cry echoed through the sky.

The next second, a huge Peng bird with a wingspan exceeding thirty meters descended from the sky. Its sharp claws reached out towards the Crocodile Dragon.

The Great Peng's posture was slender and powerful, yet its movements were like lightning!

When that eagle cry echoed, before it could even be heard by those present, its sharp claws had already struck the Crocodile Dragon!

"Ow!"

The hard back armor of the seventh-grade demon dragon was like rotten wood under these eagle claws, directly pierced through!

The intense pain was unbearable, causing the great demon to howl.

It tried to resist with all its might, but only felt its Destiny Constitution and magic power completely unresponsive to its commands.

The Crocodile Dragon roared:

"Subduing Dragon Lingji! Divine Peng Dharma Idol!"

"Ling Mingji!"

"You..."

The Crocodile Dragon wanted to speak further, but it was already impossible!

This seventh-grade Blue Blood great demon, with its monstrous flames, was actually pecked on the back of the neck by the Great Peng, its throat bitten through, its Destiny Essence scattered, and it was directly killed!

The death of the Crocodile Dragon startled the colorful Ling Qu beside it, causing it to tremble!

But this kind of stationary cannon couldn't run and couldn't fight. Besides enduring, there really wasn't much else it could do!

And that Great Peng, with its left claw gripping the Crocodile Dragon's corpse, took advantage of the fact that the seawater hadn't yet submerged the Ling Qu, and landed directly on it. With a grip of its right claw and a spread of its wings, it actually lifted this Ling Qu as well and flew up!

The Great Peng dragged the two large burdens, soaring upwards, straight into the clouds.

And in another dimension it couldn't perceive, a half-grown child was squeezing his meager White Fang Destiny Essence, desperately chasing after it!
