Fights Break Sphere: Rock King's Leisurely Journey into the Mortal World

Chapter 51 Let’s get down to business, Barbatos!

While Zhongli used his spiritual sense to explore the interior of the cave, he also paid some attention to the battle dynamics on Yun Yun's side.

"When I first saw this little girl looking so confident, I thought she was really sure of defeating the Amethyst Winged Lion King." Zhongli shook his head slightly and spoke first.

"Yeah, this little Yun girl has a powerful aura, but her strength is a bit lacking."

"It's just that this lion is a little small. If it could be a little bigger, it would be nice to catch it and use it as my second Tevarin." Wendy said jokingly with a smile on his face.

"Humph, you speak as if your Tevarin is only used as a mount. It seems to me that you clearly want to capture this Amethyst-Winged Lion King and re-form your Guardian of the Four Winds, right?" Zhongli responded with a hint of sarcasm, a smile flashing in his eyes.

"Hey! As expected of you, old man, but don't forget, this isn't Teyvat, and there's no Mondstadt for me to protect. Why should I worry about reorganizing the Guardians of the Four Winds and their followers? Am I going to let them complain in their hearts about me being a hands-off boss?"

"Get down to business, Barbatos...!" Zhongli shouted, imitating Tevarin's dull tone.

"Pfft...how do you know this?"

"Naturally, the Traveler shared it with me in Liyue."

"Really? Travelers always tell everything."

"Haha, forget it. Teyvat no longer needs the protection of demon gods like us. Just like Guizhong once said - we must believe in the power of humanity."

"Mondstadt and Liyue, even without the two of us, don't seem to be changing much. However, I have heard that without the gods, the people of Inazuma might live more comfortably."

"Oh? Really? I remember the traveler once told me about her experience in Inazuma. She said that the people of Inazuma regarded Lei Dianying as a general like the sun."

"Oh? So, is it that someone in the crowd accidentally shouted, 'Hey, hey... Look! It's the general!' Then, the rest of the people would feel warm..."

"How can thunder and lightning have such power? Could it be that the traveler has traveled too much and confused Mavica's power with the power of Thunder Movie?"

"Mavika's mysterious Thousand Sun Flames can indeed ignite a fire in the heart. If I could just raise everyone's temperature slightly, thus creating a sense of warmth within them, it wouldn't be difficult."

"(⊙o⊙)... Well, when I think about it, it does seem to be true... Oh... Oh... Oh... Oh...!! Old man! Why did you actually do that!!!"

"How can you know if it's true or not if you don't try it yourself? Although I can be considered a fire god now, I rarely use Mavica's power."

"Wait, wait! Have you forgotten that I live in your heart?! You feel warm inside, but I'm about to be scalded to death!!"

"Stop whining there. How can a wind god like you be roasted to death?"

"Even though it won't burn me to death, the pain is unbelievable! Okay, old man, stop it! If you do, I'll really die in front of you!"

"Isn't it time to get down to business, Barbatos?"

"Okay, okay, I won't watch Yun Yun fight."

“O(∩_∩)O Haha~ I thought you would just keep watching without understanding anything.”

"Don't say that. I'm afraid you, the Rock Dragon, will hit me."

"What? The Wind Demon Dragon won't attack you?"

"Hey, Tevarin couldn't bear to hit me. I'm such a good person. I often play the piano and sing for him. I'm the most famous bard in Teyvat!"

"Let's go to the cave entrance." "Which cave entrance? The two of them are fighting near that cave entrance. If they are seen, won't Yun Yun's previous efforts to restrain the Amethyst Winged Lion King be in vain?"

"Huh? Then how are you going to get in?"

"I told you you were stupid and you gasped. Have you forgotten who I am?"

"Aren't you just an old man?" Wendy responded seriously and sincerely.

"Haha." Wendy's sincere answer really made Zhongli laugh.

However, he was filled with joy at having such a compatible friend with whom he could freely talk about his inner thoughts.

Zhongli nodded slightly, shook his head with a smile, and then slowly folded up his "Wings of Fighting Spirit" and landed steadily on the mountains behind the cave.

"Barbatos, watch this. Today I will let you experience the unique feeling of the Rock God." Zhongli said as he gently pressed his palm on the stone wall at the back of the cave.

"(⊙_⊙)? What?"

Wendy was a little confused for a moment, and then Zhongli's figure disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, completely blending into the rock of the cave.

The next moment, when Wendy opened her eyes again, she found herself in the very center of the cave.

The surroundings were illuminated by the unique sixth-order purple fire of the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

"Ah, I've heard travelers say that purple has a very charming charm. Now that I've seen it with my own eyes, it's truly worthy of its reputation. Look at that little Amethyst Winged Lion King cub lying there soundly sleeping. Even now, I think it still has some charm."

"Haha, I think you are really hungry." Zhongli complained.

As Wendy spoke, she cleverly directed Zhongli's attention to the little amethyst beast that was sleeping soundly.

"Wow, I didn't expect there's a companion purple crystal source. According to the notes left by Lei Dianzhen, this is an extremely rare encounter."

"Then go get it."

"Humph, this thing can only be opened with Purple Spirit Crystal. If you use something else, I'm afraid it will damage the contents inside."

Upon hearing this, Wendy immediately activated his spiritual sense and began to carefully explore. After a while, he seemed to have realized something, and a glint flashed in his eyes. He said, "Old man, look at the object under that little purple crystal beast. Could it be a purple spirit crystal?"

Zhongli nodded slightly and also began to investigate. After a moment, his expression became more and more certain, and he replied, "Yes, it must be this thing without a doubt."

Wendy frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then analyzed, "Animals often have unique and mysterious ways of communicating, whether it's through special sound waves or distinctive calls. So, if this little amethyst beast can be allowed to pass away quietly in its sleep, then the massive amethyst-winged lion king outside the cave will definitely not be able to sense what's happening inside."

"If it were you, how would you respond?" Zhongli asked softly.

"Hmph, that's easy. Just condense a wind blade and slash it hard at its head. Why worry so much? Old man, what about you? Look at this narrow cave. I'm afraid that casting the Heavenly Star will be quite limited. Besides, once the Heavenly Star is released, it will make quite a noise."

"Why is it so complicated?" Zhongli just finished speaking, raised his wrist slightly, and then suddenly clenched his fist.
