**Boom!**
A deafening roar echoed through the entire space from the Spirit Demon Mausoleum, followed by a terrifying sound.
"What's happening?!" Zhong Shicai's team immediately looked around upon hearing the sound.
"It's the Graveyard of Ten Thousand Souls! Good grief, it seems like two top-tier bosses are battling it out!" A Taoist nearby immediately took out a long-range viewing tool and saw what was happening.
"A boss battle?! Let me see!"
The team became lively upon hearing this news.
The Spirit Demon Mausoleum was a place rarely visited by people, but that didn't mean no one could be seen here. Some teams specifically chose this desolate place, thinking it was perfect for leveling up. Here, only their team was present, and all the surrounding monsters were their experience points, with no one to compete for them, which was quite nice.
Zhong Shicai's team was one such case.
"Let me see, let me see." After borrowing the long-range viewing tool from the Taoist, Zhong Shicai also looked toward the Graveyard of Ten Thousand Souls.
The monsters in the Graveyard of Ten Thousand Souls were mostly around level 70, higher than those in the surrounding areas, so Zhong Shicai's team rarely went there.
"Wow, it really is a boss."
When he saw the terrifying Black Heaven Demon God, although he didn't know the specific details, the aura was clearly not just for show. The terrifying momentum was simply shocking!
"This boss must be around level 80 or 90."
After seeing the boss, Zhong Shicai shifted his gaze to the White Tiger puppet.
The White Tiger puppet also had a terrifying aura, which was no less than that of the Black Heaven Demon God.
"What level of boss is this?"
In the game, such situations often occurred. The "monsters" in the game were not all mindless enemies. These enemies, especially those with human-like or other racial intelligence, could even use strategies and manipulate players, almost indistinguishable from real life. Enemies also had conflicts with each other, sometimes becoming hostile, and sometimes even teaming up with players for various reasons.
Sometimes, when two boss-level opponents met, it could lead to a spectacular battle. Zhong Shicai felt that he was now fortunate enough to witness such a scene.
Zhong Shicai and his team didn't dare to rush in immediately. The battle between the White Tiger and the Demon God was so intense that each attack brought a gust of wind, destroying everything around, which was very terrifying.
"Who is that black Demon God? And what is that giant White Tiger puppet?"
The terrifying battle almost made them feel suffocated.
"Who would have thought that the desolation here would have its benefits, allowing us to witness such an epic battle."
The battle between these two huge monsters was extremely terrifying. Although the moves seemed unimpressive, the raw savagery was astonishing.
"Roar—!"
The Black Heaven Demon God suddenly roared, pushing the White Tiger puppet away and instantly using a cloning technique to split into three.
This cloning technique seemed to be more than just a simple one, as each of the three Black Heaven Demon Gods could inflict damage on the White Tiger, making the White Tiger puppet struggle to hold its ground.
But at that moment, two bright lights suddenly appeared beside the White Tiger, and almost instantly, two more puppets appeared.
One was in the form of a Vermilion Bird, and the other was in the form of a Black Tortoise.
"Damn—"
Seeing the battle escalate, Zhong Shicai's team immediately exclaimed in amazement.
With the appearance of these two puppets, the battle, which had been in favor of the Black Heaven Demon God, quickly turned in favor of the puppets.
Especially the Vermilion Bird. The flames it released were incredibly shocking, as if they could burn everything around. These flames seemed to be particularly effective against the Black Heaven Demon God, making its clones unable to advance or retreat.
The Black Tortoise puppet was even more terrifying. Each time it roared in anger, the ground would tremble, and even Zhong Shicai's team, far away, could feel the terrifying earthquake.
Under the attack of the three puppets, the Black Heaven Demon God was unable to resist and was now retreating, unable to stop the enemy's advance.
However, the Black Heaven Demon God did not seem to give up. As the cloning time ended, it suddenly howled, and the entire Spirit Demon Mausoleum began to tremble!
"What's happening?!"
Feeling the entire space boiling, Zhong Shicai and his team immediately tried to escape, but at that moment, they suddenly found that their return crystals were no longer usable!
"What's going on?!"
Zhong Shicai and his team immediately tried to stabilize themselves. But at that moment, the Black Heaven Demon God let out another strange and eerie roar, and the Spirit Demon Mausoleum echoed with this terrifying and eerie cry!
"The monsters in the Spirit Demon Mausoleum are resonating with that guy!"
Even if Zhong Shicai and his team didn't fully understand the situation, they knew it was clearly not good.
"Roar—!"
But at that moment, an even more powerful roar suddenly cut off the eerie resonance. They looked up to see a huge Azure Dragon puppet standing in the sky. Its mere presence was a force that could not be ignored.
"Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise... Could these be the legendary Four Guardians? These are the puppets of the Four Saints!"
Seeing the four puppets appear together, the players immediately thought of the legend of the Four Saints.
The appearance of the four puppets made the ghostly aura in the Spirit Demon Mausoleum disappear instantly, and the entire space seemed to be dominated by these four monsters.
"Could this be an ancient great immortal?!" Seeing this scene, Zhong Shicai and his team's eyes immediately lit up.
This was definitely the rhythm of an ancient great deity! The powerful strength! The terrifying aura!
"Old Zhong, let's go up. Maybe we can earn the favor of the great immortal. This could be a rare encounter quest."
"Go! We must go. Even if we die, it would be worth it to see the great immortal's majesty!" Another team member also called out.
...
While Zhong Shicai's team was discussing, the battle between Zhou Xian and the Black Heaven Demon God-possessed Ying Tianlong had reached a fever pitch.
"Four Saints puppets! You actually have the legendary Four Saints puppets...!!"
When the Azure Dragon puppet appeared, the Black Heaven Demon God's ultimate move was interrupted, and it was now suffering from the backlash of its own attack.
"That's why I said, a trump card is only a trump card because you can have as many as you need."
At this moment, Zhou Xian had the Four Saints puppets stand in four positions, forming a protective formation. The Black Heaven Demon God's attacks were insignificant against these four terrifying monsters.
"Wait— I surrender! I surrender!"
Suddenly, the Black Heaven Demon God let out a desperate and fearful cry.
Zhou Xian shook his head upon hearing this.
The Four Saints, appearing together, tore the Black Heaven Demon God's "shell" to pieces in an instant, revealing the terrified Ying Tianlong inside.
At this moment, Ying Tianlong's face was full of fear. He looked at Zhou Xian with a terrified expression but said nothing.
"I surrender! I'll turn myself in! Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I admit everything! Everything was done under my orders! Everything!"
Hearing Ying Tianlong's words, Zhou Xian stopped and had the Four Saints puppets pause.
At this moment, Ying Tianlong had already dispelled the Black Heaven Demon God's possession and returned to the ground. He was in a pitiful state, his face haggard, and his armor completely damaged.
"Do you really want to turn yourself in?"
"Yes, yes. I surrender. I can tell you everything I know, including about the Soul Command, the Seven Cultivation Sea, and my brother."
Ying Tianlong spoke rapidly.
"You mentioned the Seven Cultivation Sea—!"
Hearing the name of the Seven Cultivation Sea, Zhou Xian couldn't help but take a step forward.
But at that moment, Ying Tianlong's eyes glinted with a sinister light. He suddenly equipped a dagger and charged at Zhou Xian with a savage attack!
"Die!"
He stabbed the dagger into Zhou Xian's dragon puppet armor.
Being hit by this dagger would cause a 15-second paralysis, giving Zhou Xian no chance to resist. He could already see the image of his opponent writhing in front of him!
But the next moment, he froze.
"My Shattering Blade dagger—"
The dagger failed to penetrate Zhou Xian's dragon puppet armor.
"Tsk, sorry, this is game mode. My dragon puppet armor isn't so easily breached by just any weapon."
Zhou Xian let out a lion's roar, pushing Ying Tianlong back, and then raised his hand.
At that moment, the Azure Dragon puppet in the sky also opened its massive mouth toward Ying Tianlong.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Ying Tianlong's voice turned into a wail of fear.
But how could Zhou Xian care?
The Azure Dragon puppet charged down and bit into Ying Tianlong, crushing him instantly.
"The great immortal must be here!" At that moment, Zhou Xian suddenly heard other players' voices.
"Let's head back to the Flowing Cloud Temple. We can't stay here long."
Zhou Xian looked around at the terrifying and deep environment and used his return crystal to leave.
"But why did he end up so terrified?" Zhou Xian thought about Ying Tianlong's final expression. However, he didn't pay much attention to it. But he decided to tell the Dragon Tomb Society about Ying Tianlong's ambush in game mode to prevent them from being ambushed again.
