Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 277 Receding Tide

Divine Eye.

It looks strangely familiar.

Jiang Yuan's memory of that dream became clearer.

The Six Divine Eyes.

The only known ones are the two he currently possesses, the Time God Eye in Time Town, and the Vast God Eye located in Helan Mountain, China.

The whereabouts of the other two are unknown.

However, this divine eye is not what he cares about most right now.

Once we become the pinnacle of existence on the roof of the world, we will have ample time to explore the world's various secrets.

At that time, you can also collect the Six Divine Eyes.

Jiang Yuan had a premonition that when the six divine eyes were gathered together, it would bring about special changes, and beneficial ones at that.

Withdrawing his divine eye, Jiang Yuan looked at the constantly surging water sphere in his hand, where the two sovereign emperors were still struggling.

"Pluto, I am willing to swear an oath that from this day forward I will never allow the Ocean Gods to set foot on land again. As long as you..." The Cold Moon Eyes Demon God was speaking when Jiang Yuan shook his head and laughed before it could finish, "You are not in a position to negotiate with me now."

After saying that, Jiang Yuan threw the water ball into the space he had casually created.

If the Cold Moon Eye Demon God is used as an advancement material, it should be able to allow the Three-Eyed Underworld Lord to successfully advance to the Emperor level.

As for the Queen of the Dead, she naturally wants to seize control of the ocean's undead and further expand her territory in the underworld.

If there are any left, they can be given to the Three-Eyed Underworld Lord as upgrade materials.

“There are three more.” Jiang Yuan’s gaze turned toward the location of the three Demon Ruins Emperors.

It was still seawater, but beneath the seawater was a giant handprint spanning more than ten kilometers.

In the center of the palm are the three Demon Ruins Emperors.

Their bodies were shoved into the continental plate, looking like they were taking in more air than they were exhaling.

They had never experienced such a situation since they ascended to the throne, or rather, became monarchs.

They had witnessed firsthand how the Cold Moon Eye Demon God was toyed with at will, like a sardine found everywhere in the ocean, utterly powerless to fight back.

How do you fight against an opponent like that?

They can't win a fight, and they can't escape either.

You can only let others slaughter you.

"Pluto, we have no intention of offending your territory. Everything was orchestrated by the ruler of the sea gods; we had no idea that the land was your territory."

The White Spider Emperor of the Demon Ruins initiated a mental communication, immediately launching into a fabricated explanation, striving to sound as human as possible to gain favor.

"I can spare you. But I need you to submit to me," Jiang Yuan said calmly.

Surrender?

The three Demon Ruins Emperors were slightly taken aback.

It's been so long since I've heard such words.

Moreover, what could possibly be the connection between the ocean and the underworld?

Whether a subject submits or not, it makes no difference.

Once we return to the ocean, will Pluto still be able to find us?
The many emperors of the ocean would not allow it!
Thinking of this, the White Spider Emperor of the Demon Ruins struggled to get up from the pit, prostrated himself before Jiang Yuan, and said respectfully, "We are willing to submit to you."

The White Spider Emperor's action caught the other two Demon Ruins Emperors somewhat off guard, and after they realized what was happening, they also made the same gesture of submission.

"You agreed a little too quickly."

Emperors don't usually submit so easily; Jiang Yuan could guess their intentions with his bare hands.

"never mind."

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, saying that those who disobeyed could simply be wiped out. The three Demon Ruins Emperors twisted their bodies, thinking that the Underworld King was going to let them leave, and they all retreated while kowtowing like human beings, behaving in extremely strange ways.

"Let you go?"

Jiang Yuan's tone turned cold, and a faint bluish-green light suddenly shone from his body.

On the bodies of the three Demon Ruins Emperors, a large number of plants of different colors instantly grew, mostly green vines, which covered them completely in just a few seconds.

No matter how much they struggled, those seemingly fragile plants remained entwined around them, tightening their grip.

The roots have grown onto the skeleton and are still burrowing deeper.

Even their souls have spiritual plants growing wildly!

This kind of pain is unimaginable to most people; it is a million times more painful than having a million needles stuck in the body!
"Roar!!!!"

"Roar!!!!"

A series of roars echoed over Shanghai.

Even Xiao, a legitimate emperor, could not withstand Jiang Yuan's plant magic at this moment.

Who in the world today can easily defeat several emperor-level demons with a single spell?
No, not one!

Jiang Yuan showed no mercy and killed all three Demon Ruins Emperors.

Three Emperor-level essences arrived. The Emperor's body is also a rare treasure in the world. They were all thrown into the Underworld for the Three-Eyed Underworld Lord to use for his advancement.

At this point on the coastline, the living sea monsters had already escaped when the Cold Moon Eye Demon God was captured, leaving only layers of corpses floating on the sea.

Before leaving, Jiang Yuan took one last look at Shanghai as the seawater gradually receded. In just a few days, the submerged areas would be exposed again.

The dark sky parted at that moment, and the sunlight returned.

The terrifying Eye of the Underworld slowly closed, and everything returned to normal.

The apocalyptic catastrophe ended just like that. People hundreds of kilometers away didn't know exactly what had happened. All they could feel was the suffocating energy fluctuations weakening and the sky beginning to clear.

"The battle is over." Hongwu let out a deep breath.

"I'll go check it out. You all wait here for my news," Dean Xiao said.

Everyone nodded, and Dean Xiao's figure disappeared immediately.

A dozen minutes later, Dean Xiao returned.

His brows were still furrowed, but the gloom of the catastrophe was gone.

"How is it? What happened over there? Are the Ocean Gods still around?" Hongwu asked repeatedly.

Dean Xiao took a deep breath and said, "There is no trace of the Ocean God Clan along the entire coastline, not even a single living sea monster; all we can see are corpses."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.

"What about that Emperor-level battle?" Hongwu continued to ask, eager to know the outcome.

"Hmm, no obvious signs of battle were found, but all the emperors of the Ocean God Clan have disappeared," Dean Xiao said, frowning.

The seawater had not completely receded, so he did not see the huge handprint beneath the surface of the sea.

"Is it Hades?" Shao Zheng muttered to himself.

“Besides Hades, no one else in the world will help humanity stop this catastrophe. Only Hades has such great power. His power has reached the same level as those three emperors, stepping onto the roof of the world,” Dean Xiao said.

Everyone fell silent. Hongwu said self-deprecatingly, "Humanity has struggled for so many years, and in the end, we still have to rely on demons to be saved. The task ahead is arduous and the road is long!"

"Maybe," Dean Xiao said casually.

He decided to go find Jiang Yuan, who was always elusive and rarely seen, to find the answer to his suspicions.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the tide is receding, and the submerged areas of Shanghai will soon be restored. Our next task is to rebuild Shanghai and the other submerged areas."

Hongwu turned around and assigned tasks to everyone. By the time he finished, Dean Xiao had already disappeared.
