Since the Divine King's group did not show any mercy when they attacked. They only wanted to kill and plunder, so every single strike was fatal. As a result, Jianchen's group did not hold back either. As a result, the battle did not last very long before the Divine King's group died one after another.
Before long, another dozen corpses appeared on the ground. The Divine King's group that wanted to steal the heavenly resources from Jianchen's group had all died on the spot. None of them managed to escape.
On Jianchen's side, only Xiao Zheng was injured. Chanlong had cast down a formation in time to fend off the enemy, so they were fine. As for Jianchen and Caia, regular Divine King's were unable to injure them now that they were in the same realm as Divine Kings. They vaguely seemed invincible among their peers now that they had just broken through to the Divine King realm.
Jianchen thought of the young Immortal Devouring Orchid again when he saw the corpses. He sighed in pity. If only the Immortal Devouring Orchid was powerful enough and fed the corpses to the Immortal Devouring Orchid. That would have been great.
He had thought about storing the Divine King's corpses so that the Immortal Devouring Orchid could devour them when it was powerful enough. However, the sword spirits had already warned him that devouring corpses that had been dead for too long would only harm the Immortal Devouring Orchid.
Xiao Zheng and Chanlong became extremely stern after the battle. Chanlong said, "Jianchen, the situation has developed rather unexpectedly. There are probably quite a few Divine Kings searching for us on this floor right now. Although we don't fear small groups, once many Divine Kings work together against us, or even the supreme Divine King below the Divine King takes action, dealing with them will be extremely difficult with our strength. I think it's best if we return to the Neptunean Mountains for now."
Jianchen sank into his thoughts when he heard Chanlong's words. He frowned slightly as well. Although he possessed extraordinary battle prowess, he was not blindly conceited at all. He knew that there were still a very small number of Divine Kings who could pose a threat to him in the Poseidon Palace. For example, the old man beside Mo Cheng and the god artifact wielding mister Shu from the Sky Empire made him feel pressured. Even though he had become a Divine King, he was not completely confident in defeating the two of them.
This was because he knew that the two of them were so powerful that regular late Divine Kings could not compare to them. Not to mention the fact that they possessed god artifacts..
Aside from the two of them, who knew how many other supreme Divine Kings had gathered in the Poseidon Palace. Every single one of them could not be underestimated. If these people took part in the encirclement against him, he would indeed be in trouble. He might even face the danger of dying.
As a matter of fact, Jian Chen was certain that there would definitely be supreme Godkings from the Godkings' Throne among the Godkings searching for him in the Neptunean Divine Palace. After all, their harvest was just too great. They had dug up a quarter of the thousand God Tier heavenly resources in the Divine Medicinal Garden, which was enough to make Primordial realm experts jealous. As a matter of fact, even Primordial realm experts would fight to the death for these heavenly resources.
Right now, their situation was indeed not optimistic.
"We should avoid them for now. It won't be convenient for us to move about in the Poseidon Palace for now. I plan on returning to the eighth floor." Jianchen said in thought. He looked at Caia and said, "Caia, Xiao Zheng, why don't the two of you retreat to the Neptunean Mountains with Chanlong first? Without a doubt, the Neptunean Mountains is the safest place for us right now."
The light in Caia's eyes flickered. He said, "Just let Xiao Zheng and Chanlong return to the Neptunean Mountains. I'll stay with you. After all, with my strength, I should be able to help you a little."
"That … works too. Let's do that then. We'll escort Chanlong and Xiao Zheng to the Neptunean Mountains first before going to the eighth floor," said Jian Chen. Afterwards, he escorted Chanlong and Xiao Zheng to the Neptunean Mountains with Caia. At the same time, Jianchen got Chanlong to control the Grand Exalt's formation to hide the presence in a cave in the Neptunean Mountains. Then, he took out all the God Tier heavenly resources they had obtained in the Divine Medicinal Garden this time and distributed them.
Over two hundred God Tier heavenly resources were placed in the small cave. Just the heavy fragrance from them was enough to reach thousands of kilometres away. If it were not for Chanlong's formation, the presence of these heavenly resources would have been enough to alarm all the Divine Kings in seclusion in the Neptunean Mountains.
"These God Tier heavenly resources should be enough to exchange for quite a few five-colored divine crystals," Jianchen's heart burned with desire as he looked at the dazzling array of heavenly resources.
At this moment, a fist-sized beast flew out of Kai Ya's Space Ring. Its eyes shone as it stared at the God Tier pills on the ground. Its face was filled with desire as it stared at the two of them with its bright, intelligent eyes. It was begging and yearning.
This was the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast that had not left Caia's side for quite some time. It had always been by Caia's side, cultivating in his Space Ring.
"You little thing, you're running out as soon as you see something good," Jianchen could not help but laugh as he knocked the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast's head gently.
"Eat whatever you want," said Jian Chen softly. He looked at the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast warmly. Even now, he could not forget how the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast had helped him when he was still weak.
The Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast immediately became excited. It flapped its wings and flew towards the pile of heavenly resources as a blur. It directly ate three of them before returning to Caia's Space Ring with satisfaction.
In the end, Jianchen, Caia, and Chanlong split the two hundred and sixty-six heavenly resources evenly. Xiao Zheng obtained a Flower of Ways as well.
Originally, Jian Chen wanted to give Xiao Zheng a few more God Tier heavenly resources, but Xiao Zheng firmly declined. He knew that he had not put in much effort in collecting the heavenly resources, so he was already very satisfied with a single Flower of Ways. He did not want to take advantage of Jian Chen any further.
Afterwards, Jianchen and Caia did not stay any longer. They directly left the Neptunean Mountains and made their way to the eighth floor of the Poseidon Palace.
At the same time, over ten thousand kilometres away from Jianchen and Chanlong, Ziyun landed unsteadily with Xiao Man in her arms. As soon as she landed, Ziyun stumbled and directly fell to the ground.
At this moment, Zi Yun's complexion was as pale as paper. There was not the slightest trace of blood on her face. Her aura was extremely weak, and she gave off the feeling of being on the verge of death.
"Big sister, how are you? Are you alright? Please don't scare Xiao Man." Xiao Man hugged Zi Yun's delicate body tightly. Her little face was filled with worry and fear.
Ziyun had burned her essence blood several times to flee, paying an extremely heavy price. Coupled with the fact that she had fought against a few Divine King along the way, she was heavily injured. Now, not only was she powerless to flee, but she did not even have the strength to stand up.
