God of Pets-Chapter 584: Underwater Battle

Chen Guan commanded Qiongqi to lunge down. A beastly mask appeared on Qiongqi's face, and in the next instant, it turned black and red, enveloping its entire body, forming a layer of black and red strange feathers.

Roar!

The crown atop Qiongqi's head spun, casting down strands of Primordial Energy, causing cloud-like mist to emerge from its body.

The wind stirred, the clouds shook, and Qiongqi, riding the momentum of the wind and clouds, descended with terrifying pressure to strike at Wu Zhiqi from the air.

The two mythical beasts were locked in fierce battle, while the three brothers and sisters of the Xia Family fought against the sword waves of the Sword Pill.

They combined to form a halo, forcibly trapping the Sword Pill. The halo constantly absorbed the sword waves from the Sword Pill and then sprayed them back into the sky from the other side.

Qiongqi had great speed and destructive power, but its physical body was not as formidable as Wu Zhiqi's; it could only rely on speed to win.

If it truly came to a life-and-death struggle, it was uncertain who would emerge victorious.

However, Wu Zhiqi, at this moment, was determined to rush back to the icy river, and Qiongqi could not stop it.

Seeing Qiongqi nearing the icy river, Chen Guan, without hesitation, charged forward once more, wielding the Mountain-Opening Axe to strike at Wu Zhiqi's vital point at its waist.

Wu Zhiqi was shocked and angry, deftly dodging while extending a monkey claw with claw radiance several meters long, aimed at Chen Guan's head, intending to tear him apart.

Chen Guan wielded the Mountain-Opening Axe, meeting the incoming claw radiance.

Indeed, the Mountain-Opening Axe was unparalleled in its destructiveness, directly severing the claw radiance, posing no threat at all.

Wu Zhiqi gritted its teeth, disregarding the axe's strike, lunging with full force toward the icy river.

Crunch!

Chen Guan held the axe with one hand, passing by Wu Zhiqi, and the axe light forcibly severed one of Wu Zhiqi's arms.

But Wu Zhiqi took the opportunity of the severed arm to leap into the icy river, with a splash that stirred waves several tens of meters high.

Seeing Wu Zhiqi plunge into the icy river, a bitter expression appeared on Xia Huang and his companions' faces.

Once Wu Zhiqi entered the icy river, there was no chance of killing it, and the Sword Pill would likely be uncontainable, eventually being reclaimed by Wu Zhiqi.

Chen Guan stood expressionlessly on the riverbank, watching the waves in the water.

Suddenly, Wu Zhiqi emerged from the river, its head popping out, staring grimly at Chen Guan on the shore and screeching strangely as if saying, "Just you wait, I will kill you."

"Let's see if you survive first," Chen Guan said coolly to Wu Zhiqi in the water.

Earlier, when passing by Wu Zhiqi, Chen Guan not only severed one of its arms but also took the opportunity to deliver a Disabling Fist.

The headless Anti-Wind Giant wasn't much affected by the Disabling Fist.

But Wu Zhiqi had a head, so the Disabling Fist should have some effect.

"Big brother... it's over... Wu Zhiqi has returned to the water..." Xia Guagua said, frustrated.

Xia Huang didn't know what to say. Now they had trapped the Sword Pill, but their Primordial Energy was limited. Once it was exhausted, the Combined Skill would fail, and the Sword Pill would be reclaimed by Wu Zhiqi.

"Let it go, we can't hold it," Xia Hua said bitterly.

Xia Huang nodded helplessly. All three were almost out of Primordial Energy; keeping it or not would yield the same result.

The three simultaneously withdrew their Secret Skills, and the Sword Pill immediately, with layers of sword waves, flew towards Wu Zhiqi in the water.

Wu Zhiqi opened its mouth, and the Sword Pill flew in and disappeared.

"Roar!" Wu Zhiqi's head surfaced, roaring angrily at Chen Guan and the others before turning to dive deeper into the icy river, disappearing in no time.

Xia Huang and his companions were helpless despite having tried their best; Wu Zhiqi was too formidable, and with the aid of the Water-Resistant Sword, they really had no way to handle it.

Qiongqi ruled the skies and could command wind and clouds, but had no advantage in water.

Xia Huang thought they were sure to return empty-handed this time, but suddenly saw a figure beside the icy river leaping into it, diving towards the depths.

"What is he doing..." Xia Hua was startled.

They couldn't take Wu Zhiqi on land; going underwater would be even more of a losing battle, for that was Wu Zhiqi's domain.

And with Wu Zhiqi bearing such a grudge against Chen Guan, diving down now would be a death sentence for him.

Though Chen Guan's death might not matter much, the Mountain-Opening Axe and Qiongqi were both with him—if he died, the axe would fall into Wu Zhiqi's hands, and Qiongqi would vanish. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Xia Huang's expression was indecisive; he felt this man was too reckless.

Xia Guagua sprang up, intending to jump into the icy river but was grabbed by Xia Hua, who angrily snapped, "Guagua, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to help that brother from the Purple Sun Corps kill Wu Zhiqi and retrieve the Water-Resistant Sword," Xia Guagua replied matter-of-factly.

"Are you crazy? Going underwater now is the same as seeking death; that's Wu Zhiqi's domain, and our combat power is less than half underwater..." Xia Hua thought this guy was indeed reckless.

"Then why did that brother from the Purple Sun Corps go?" Xia Guagua, still unwilling, looked down from the riverbank.

Xia Hua was too annoyed to argue with the lad, just saying, "You're not allowed to go in, or I'll break your legs."

Xia Guagua looked at Xia Huang in frustration, and Xia Huang shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "You can't go underwater."

Just then, waves surged on the water's surface, with columns shooting several meters high, as if a fierce battle was occurring below.

Moments later, the turbulent waves suddenly stopped, and the ripples on the water's surface grew smaller.

Xia Hua and Xia Huang exchanged glances, both thinking that person must have perished, and they lamented losing the Mountain-Opening Axe and Qiongqi as it would be hard to explain upon returning.

Chen Guan wouldn't take risks lightly. He had seen Wu Zhiqi's eyes filling with blood and its face unusually flushed before diving down—something was obviously wrong, indicating the Disabling Fist had taken effect.

It likely wouldn't take long before the Disabling Fist's energy and solidified blood would wreak havoc in Wu Zhiqi's brain. By then, Wu Zhiqi wouldn't need Chen Guan's intervention; it would succumb on its own.

Such an opportunity would not be missed by Chen Guan, who promptly dove into the icy river, enduring the cold water to head into its depths.

Noticing Chen Guan diving, Wu Zhiqi rushed out of its den, wanting to unleash its power to battle Chen Guan.

Chen Guan saw its face flushed with blood, and its eyes bulging red, thinking its days were numbered.

He wasn't afraid, wielding the Mountain-Opening Axe to fend off Wu Zhiqi's several assaults.

Wu Zhiqi, in its rage, prepared to unleash a big move. But in its agitation and force, its brain seemed to explode, dropping down with convulsions like having an epileptic fit, completely out of control, with blood gushing from its seven orifices.

"Mei Qingta's creation of the Disabling Fist is truly a Divine Skill, even Wu Zhiqi, such a Secret Spirit, cannot withstand its power," Chen Guan praised.

Actually, Chen Guan deserved credit too. With the inclusion of the Blood Coagulation Fork, the Disabling Fist could reach a higher level.

The Disabling Fist, breaking nerves and blood vessels, could flow with the blood. Even without hitting vital spots, its energy would travel with the bloodstream into the brain, heart, and other organs, causing more severe damage.
