If it were only Tartaglia, or only the "Star-Devouring Whale," they would obviously be far from being his match.

Even if the two join forces, making them significantly more difficult to deal with, he is not without the confidence to defeat them both at once.

But that's on the premise that you have enough divine power.

Yin Kong's million-plus Mora sounds like a lot, but the brief exchange just now had already consumed more than 200,000 Mora.

Even he wasn't confident he could defeat the Prince and the Star-Devouring Whale before Mora ran out.

Logically speaking, they should retreat for now and wait for Yin Kong to accumulate enough Mora before returning to eliminate the Abyss.

It's quite obvious, however, that if we fail to seize this opportunity and resolve this abyss gate in one fell swoop, will it give us another chance?

Chapter 217 Stopping the Flood with an Arrow

"Traveler, shall we retreat for now?"

Zhongli asked Yin Kongxin in his heart.

Although escaping through the Abyss Gate might lead to an invasion of the Abyss in the near future, given Yin Kong's growth rate, he might be able to grow to the point where he can defeat it head-on.

However, if Yin Kong were to perish here, it would be an absolutely unacceptable loss from any perspective.

Yin Kong naturally understood this principle, but when he saw Tartaglia riding on the back of the "Star-Devouring Whale," a thought suddenly struck him:

“Mr. Zhongli, I have a plan.”

The speed of communication through thoughts is naturally extremely fast.

Soon, Yin Kong finished explaining his plan and asked:

"What do you think? Is it feasible?"

"It's worth a try, but some details still need to be modified."

Zhongli's tone also carried a hint of surprise, but he quickly realized the shortcomings in the plan.

"ha--!"

Tartaglia and the "Star-Devouring Whale" naturally wouldn't give them a chance to discuss things leisurely, but Zhongli was naturally unaffected.

While calmly dodging and conserving his divine power, a perfect plan was freshly created in just a few seconds.

"So--"

After confirming the plan, Zhong Li's eyes immediately changed.

Another fierce battle ensued, and this time Zhongli's offensive was even more aggressive.

In the end, the emperor dodged D'Artagnan's blade and instead thrust his spear back, piercing D'Artagnan's demonic armor in the chest with a resounding clang of metal clashing.

The "Star-Devouring Whale" would naturally not stand idly by.

As the two clashed, it opened its enormous mouth, accumulating a jet-black beam of light, seven or eight meters in diameter, which was enough to send chills down Yin Kong's spine, and blasted towards Zhong Li's location.

Logically speaking, Zhongli should have given up on D'Artagnan immediately.

Even if he could block the dark beam of light, the consumption of his divine power would be extremely terrifying.

In comparison, even destroying Tartaglia's demonic armor, or even destroying his heart in one fell swoop, would be far from fatal to the young master who had already been corrupted by the abyss.

However, Zhongli showed no intention of dodging; instead, he roared—

"Indestructible!"

The golden [Black Tassel Spear] immediately pierced through the Demon King's armor and sent Tartaglia flying.

At the same time, the dark beam of light was already within reach, and even at Zhongli's current speed, there was absolutely no way he could avoid it.

However, the next moment, the Rock King's figure twisted and transformed into Mona with a pointed head:

"Traveler, please don't forget my satellite—"

But before the genius astrologer could finish speaking, he was struck solidly by a terrifying pillar of black light, instantly wiping out all his health points.

"The starry sky... is dim..."

As Mona fell, Tadalia, who had been thrown into the air, also encountered a long-awaited ambush.

"The wind moves with the clouds!"

As the Fools' Enforcers flew straight towards him, Kaedehara Manyo naturally had to deliver a head-on blow.

Unfortunately, the difference in their levels was simply too great.

Even though D'Artagnan was being knocked away, the black sword energy he casually unleashed easily knocked him down.

Not only Wan Ye, but even Ye Lan, who was hiding behind him, had her life points instantly wiped out by this black sword energy.

Of course, this was also within Yin Kong's plan.

Even though Zhongli gave them the first move, given their level and attributes, participating in a battle at this level would only result in them being instantly killed.

Therefore, they only have one chance to act.

Fortunately, although he was killed twice by Tadalia with one sword, before being sent back to the agency, Yelan successfully fired an arrow that she had been holding back for a long time, and accurately hit Tadalia in the heart.

The Demon King's armor here has been shattered by Zhongli, and even the skin and bones on the surface have been torn open, revealing a heart that has been completely corrupted into a pitch-black state by the power of the abyss.

However, the azure arrow, after striking the heart, did not unleash considerable destructive power.

Because Yin Kong's plan was never to have Ye Lan shoot Dadalia's heart with an arrow.

Not to mention that Yelan's attack power might not be able to achieve this, even if it succeeded, it would not be able to solve the problem of Tartaglia being corrupted by the abyss.

Therefore, the arrow that struck the heart immediately transformed into a pure water elemental force, condensing into a rune with a strange effect—

【Pure Heart Seal】:

It can calm the mind and help those who have lost their reason regain their senses.

Ye Lan comes from a family with a long history of learning. Her ancestors were sorcerers who fought alongside Fu She in the Layered Rock Abyss. Although their mastery of talismans was not as proficient as that of professionals like Chong Yun and Shen He, they were still quite accomplished.

Most importantly, she possesses a water-attribute God's Eye!

Yin Kong speculated that the reason why Tartaglia was completely corrupted by the power of the abyss was probably because his Eye of God was not with him for some reason.

If Yelan were to use a magic sign to send water elemental power into Tartaglia's body, would it be possible to reawaken his sanity?

Even if it's only temporary, it's enough to turn this enemy into an ally.

Even Zhongli had never imagined such a wildly imaginative plan.

However, the Rock King did discover that although Tartaglia's body had been completely controlled by the Abyss, there was still a final will within him resisting.

However, even if Zhongli severely injured D'Artagnan, could Yelan shoot an arrow into his heart?

Even if she hits the target, will her [Purifying Heart Seal] still be effective?

Even if it works, can it bring back D'Artagnan's sanity?

There are simply too many uncertainties involved, and even Zhongli could only say that it's worth a try.

As for the outcome, Yin Kong admitted that there was an element of gambling involved.

But when he saw that a small part of D'Artagnan's dark heart had been purified beneath the blue sign, he knew he had made the right bet.

"Ajax, Tok is here!"

After Mona collapsed, Yin Kong also moved to the front of the stage and shouted loudly.

Upon hearing these words, D'Artagnan's body immediately trembled.

Then, he reached into his chest cavity and gripped his heart tightly:

"Uh-"

Amidst near-mad shouts, he seemed to be pulling out the abyssal power from his heart bit by bit, as if in a tug-of-war.

The "Star-Devouring Whale" clearly didn't understand what Yin Kong was doing, but it didn't want to understand either.

After realizing that the dark beam of light had failed to kill Yin Kong, it immediately unleashed a dense array of thin beams of light, which rained down on Yin Kong's location.

"One arrow—stop the water!"

However, this time, Yin Kong didn't need to react; a dark figure blocked his way and intercepted all the beams of light aimed at him.

Chapter 218 Students

Seeing that Tadalia had shielded him from all the beams of light, Yin Kong knew that this executor of the Fatui had truly regained his sanity.

"Sorry for causing you trouble, partner. I'll take care of this guy."

Seeing that the young master had "opened his heart" but only said one sentence before charging towards the giant whale without saying another word, Yin Kong couldn't help but admire the guy's ferocity.

Fortunately, the young master is very professional at dealing with the "Star-Devouring Whale".

After all, even the original body that absorbed the water of the primordial fetal sea could entangle for a long time, let alone this imposter created based on his memories.

"It's time to finish."

Yin Kong naturally wouldn't waste such an opportunity.

While Tartaglia was entangled with the "Star-Devouring Whale," he immediately switched Zhongli back to the forefront and flew straight towards the [Gate of the Abyss] high in the center of the sky.

Along the way, he naturally encountered countless obstacles from demons.

The Gate of the Abyss had clearly realized Zhongli's terror and immediately released countless abyssal monsters, including the Flying Key they had encountered not long ago.

Although there were many of these demons, their levels were not high. In front of Zhongli, who wielded divine power, they were just numbers and could not even stop him for half a second.

This is also a matter of course.

If nothing unexpected happens, the "Star-Devouring Whale" that is currently locked in a passionate elbow-to-elbow exchange with the young master is actually almost the most powerful entity that the [Abyss Gate] can mimic, and the corrupted Dada Duck is just something it picked up by chance.

This "unexpected joy" greatly enhanced its combat power, but when Daddy Duck regained its senses, it instead restrained almost all of its combat power.

Sensing the approaching danger, the Abyss Gate was slowly closing, seemingly planning to retreat if things went wrong.

But now that things have come to this, neither Yin Kong nor Zhong Li would possibly give it such an opportunity:

"The heavens are moving!"

A colossal, golden spear, thirty to forty meters in diameter, descended from the sky, piercing through the protective shield of the Abyss Gate with overwhelming force. It then pierced the abyssal monster, pinning it to the ground.

Like a meteorite hitting the earth, the roar of the giant spear piercing the ground resounded through the sky, and the terrifying shockwave instantly wiped out all the demons and monsters within a radius of several thousand meters.

Even the colossal "Star-Devouring Whale" could not withstand being blown away at this moment.

Once the terrifying impact subsided, the [Gate of the Abyss], which had been pinned to the ground, shattered and vanished into ashes.

Finally—it's over!

Upon seeing the kill notification, Yin Kong finally breathed a sigh of relief, as he had essentially used up all his trump cards.

Logically speaking, as a dungeon with a recommended team level of only 88, the [Gate of the Abyss] shouldn't be hiding any more powerful methods.

But if this thing really pulls out another [Lord of the Corrupted Flame], then I will have no choice but to retreat strategically.

Yin Kong immediately turned around, and after the [Gate of the Abyss] was destroyed, the "Star-Devouring Whale" also froze in place.

Then, as if it had lost all its support, its massive body disintegrated and finally turned into a dense mass of abyssal power.

Tartaglia turned around, and the abyssal power that had been entangled around him returned to calm, showing no signs of continuing to erode and control him.

Looking at Yin Kong, this executor of the Fools was naturally filled with mixed feelings and wanted to sit down and reminisce.

The next moment, a semi-transparent golden light enveloped him.

"The world's repulsive force?"

Zhongli immediately recognized the golden light as the barrier of the world.

The way Tartaglia exists at this moment is actually very special, because Zhongli once said that although Yin Kong's process of summoning characters is extremely mysterious, it can probably be regarded as a very special summoning ritual.

Just like traveling abroad, completing the ceremony is probably the process of getting "visas" for the characters.

Of course, even Zhongli didn't know how the system allowed them to use Teyvat's elemental and divine powers normally, even in this world.

The absurdity of this situation is roughly equivalent to traveling from Africa to Europe or America and still being able to use one's original African currency without any problems.

But overall, Tartaglia's summoning is not yet complete, so he is actually just an undocumented immigrant.

The reason they can move freely is because the power of the [Gate of the Abyss] is extremely special, and it can even bypass the protection of the power of time.
