The battle between Zhu Rong and Nubisi has entered a fierce stage.
Zhu Rong, transformed into a fire dragon, launched a frenzied offensive against Nubisi.
Despite possessing the Acquired Third-Rate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure, Nubisi was still forced by Zhu Rong to the point where he could only barely defend himself.
Nubisi was starting to regret his decision.
This was before he even brought out this Acquired Third-Rate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure.
Zhu Rong was only attacking based on her own strength.
But after he took out his weapon...
Zhu Rong also displayed her battle armor.
The armor of the second-rate innate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure, combined with the formidable power of Zhu Rong's true form.
It could be said that Zhu Rong could stand there and let Nubisi attack her, and he still couldn't break through Zhu Rong's defenses.
This left Nubisi feeling extremely frustrated.
His attack on Zhu Rong felt like a mere tickle to others.
But when Zhu Rong struck him, it really hurt.
Despite the intense battle between the two...
But you'll see if you look closely.
Nubisi was completely on the defensive and taking hits throughout the match.
The two exchanged blows for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Nubisi's face was covered in bruises.
Its once powerful aura now seemed somewhat weak and listless.
Nubisi was clearly at his last gasp, unable to even bring him any amusement.
Having lost interest in Nubisi, Zhu Rong simply swallowed Nubisi whole.
Nubisi was engulfed by the dragon's flames.
It only took the blink of an eye.
Nubisi completely evaporated inside the fire dragon's body.
With Nubisi's death, the other four were quite unsettled.
After all, Nubisi was the strongest among the five of them, and there was also the Acquired Third-Rate Heavenly Punishment Universe Treasure bestowed by Hermoz.
Even so, Nubisi was powerless against Zhu Rong.
Is it even necessary to continue fighting?
The four, who had lost all will to fight, exchanged only a glance before quietly taking out their communication beads.
Their petty tricks could not possibly escape Lin Heng's discerning eye.
However, Lin Heng remained silent about them taking out the communication orb.
Just a few breaths later, the communication orb was retrieved again.
Looking at the others again, his face was visibly more relaxed.
By now, Zhu Rong was also getting impatient.
"Have you decided who's next?"
A muffled, angry shout rang out. The four men looked at each other, none daring to utter a word.
Just as Zhu Rong was about to speak again...
Sudden!
A figure appeared in mid-air without warning in this space.
" Hermoz, you've finally arrived?"
Lin Heng smiled with narrowed eyes when he saw the person who had arrived.
Hermoz received the message from the remaining four cultivators from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea and rushed over immediately.
After glancing at the situation, he roughly understood what was going on.
With the Twelve Ancestral Witches present, how could his subordinates possibly gain the upper hand?
At this moment, the four monks also arrived in front of Hermoz.
The four of them bowed to Hermoz in unison.
The person standing at the very front spoke up:
"Lord Hermoz, this time Western Celebratory Demon Sea has changed his mind."
"They handed over the right to compete for the Heavenly Star Sea Region to Lin Heng."
" Lin Heng dispatched Mu Chen's Twelve Ancestral Witches, Nubisi was also killed by Zhu Rong."
After saying all that is stated aboveboard...
The four men and Hermoz fell into a brief silence.
Lin Heng guessed that they were secretly communicating telepathically.
A short while later, after Hermoz learned the whole story through telepathy, he turned his gaze to Lin Heng.
"In this battle for the Heavenly Star Sea Region, we, the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea, concede defeat."
"The next round of mining rights in the Heavenly Star Sea Region are yours."
"Let's go!"
After giving his indifferent instructions, Hermoz prepared to leave with the four cultivators.
However, just as he was about to turn around, Lin Heng called out to him.
"Wait!"
Lin Heng's shout caused Hermoz to stop turning around and turn back to look at Lin Heng again.
"What? Is there something else?"
Hermoz's expression clearly showed displeasure.
She had already made concessions, so what more did Lin Heng want?
Lin Heng raised his head and sneered.
"The battle for the Heavenly Star Sea Region has begun."
"It was agreed before the war that we would start with the living and end with the dead."
"Now that the battle has begun, it will not stop unless one side is completely wiped out."
Lin Heng's attitude was very firm.
This caused Hermoz's face to darken instantly.
" Lin Heng, you've already gotten the better deal, are you really going to go this far?"
As he spoke, a murderous glint flashed in Hermoz's eyes.
Before Lin Heng could speak, Dijiang, who was not far away, flashed to Lin Heng's side.
Dijiang smiled and looked at Hermoz, then said:
"This battle for control was personally agreed to by your representative from the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea."
" Hermoz, are you trying to go back on your word?"
As soon as Dijiang finished speaking, Chu Duanhun, who had been silent all along, also spoke up.
"Lord Hermoz, as a witness, I can vouch for the truth of what Lin Heng and the others said."
Chu Duanhun's accomplices were simply there to watch the drama unfold.
Hermoz trembled with anger upon hearing his words.
"You vouch for me?"
"Since when did you become the one in charge of the Western Celebratory Demon Sea?"
Hermoz's words were clearly a taunt to Chu Duanhun: "You're not the lord of the Western Celebratory Demon Sea, you have no right to speak to me."
But no sooner had he finished speaking than a hearty laugh rang out in the air.
"Hahaha!"
" Hermoz, how about I vouch for you?"
The man arrived as soon as the laughter subsided, and Dasiwoba appeared less than twenty feet in front of Hermoz.
Dasiwoba had been secretly monitoring the situation here.
The reason he hadn't shown up was simply to let Lin Heng make things escalate.
If Hermoz hadn't been so shameless as to renege on his debt...
It's doubtful that Dasiwoba will show up.
When Hermoz saw Dasiwoba appear so quickly.
At this point, he knew perfectly well that Dasiwoba was behind it all.
Although he was furious, Dasiwoba was not Chu Duanhun after all, so he couldn't lash out directly.
Hermoz glanced at Dijiang and the other Twelve Ancestral Witches.
He glanced at the smiling tiger, Dasiwoba, once again.
He knew that it was clearly impossible for today's matter to simply end without resolution.
After all, the strength of the Western Celebratory Demon Sea and the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea was not much different.
If the Twelve Ancestral Witches are now involved, the situation will inevitably be unfavorable for the Eastern Victorious Divine Sea.
After much deliberation, Hermoz had no choice but to back down.
He turned his gaze to the four cultivators and said calmly:
"Since it's a battle that's already been agreed upon, then go and finish it."
