It was unknown if Jade Rabbit could understand him, but it ignored Zhou Wen and continued struggling.
However, as its body was covered in glue-like liquid, its struggles were futile.
A pure Strength-type creature has such a weakness. Once they are restrained, thereâs almost no chance of turning the tables. Tyrant Behemoth has the same weakness.
Zhou Wen ordered the Seven Seas Dragon King to take the initiative to attack when he realized that Jade Rabbit was refusing to surrender.
The Seven Seas Dragon Kingâs tentacles swept towards Jade Rabbit, but unfortunately, Jade Rabbit was just too big after its Terror transformation. The Seven Seas Dragon Kingâs tentacles were unable to wrap around Jade Rabbitâs body. All it could do was bite at its flesh.
The Jade Rabbitâs flesh was terrifyingly tough. The tentacles with dragon heads nearly had their teeth chip when biting at itâthey failed to bite through its flesh. All they did was tear off some rabbit fur.
What a powerful physique!
Zhou Wen was secretly alarmed.
The Seven Seas Dragon King was at the Terror grade after all. Furthermore, its strength wasnât considered weak among the Terror-grade creatures. Yet, it was actually unable to break through the Jade Rabbitâs defense. The strength of this fellowâs physique was unimaginable.
If it hadnât been restrained by the Seven Seas Dragon Kingâs ability, it would have been a huge problem.
From the looks of it, I have no choice but to let Demonic Neonate take action.
Zhou Wen summoned Demonic Neonate.
âJade Rabbit, I wonât be holding back if you donât hand over the Elixir of Immortality,â Zhou Wen shouted at Jade Rabbit again, but it continued struggling and ignored him.
âNeonate, let it see some blood,â Zhou Wen instructed Demonic Neonate with his mind.
Demonic Neonate received the order and immediately unsheathed her Demonic Sword that flew towards Jade Rabbit.
The Demonic Sword was just too small. In front of the gigantic Jade Rabbit, it couldnât even be considered a needle.
However, the Demonic Swordâs offensive strength was clearly much stronger than the Seven Seas Dragon Kingâs. It tore through the Jade Rabbitâs flesh and stabbed right in.
A drop of blood flowed out along the sword hilt. Zhou Wen was about to shout at Jade Rabbit again, but when his gaze landed on its face, he was stunned.
Jade Rabbitâs originally red eyes had turned black. Then, its eyelids drooped down as crystalline tears shimmered inside.
âWa!â Jade Rabbit suddenly cried as large drops of tears streamed down.
As it cried, its huge body slowly shrank and returned to its original size. It cried in the glue and soon, it was wet.
Zhou Wen was depressed. âWhy are you crying like a child when youâre a Terror creature?â
âJade Rabbit, hand over the Elixir of Immortality and Iâll immediately release you,â Zhou Wen said to Jade Rabbit.
It would have been better if he hadnât said it. With him saying that, Jade Rabbit cried even more tragically. Its tears flowed down like a stream.
Zhou Wen was just about to say something when he suddenly realized that something was amiss. The tears had drenched the Jade Rabbitâs fur, and the sticky liquid that stuck to its body had automatically fallen off, preventing it from sticking to it.
When Jade Rabbit realized that the glue on its body had been removed, it was immediately surprised and delighted. It jumped up and rushed to the edge of the ring-shaped mountain. With another flash, it was gone. Its speed was terrifying.
Zhou Wen was immediately depressed. He didnât expect Jade Rabbitâs tears to be able to remove the Seven Seas Dragon Kingâs sticky liquid. Jade Rabbit was gone before he could obtain the Elixir of Immortality.
With Jade Rabbitâs speed, even a Mythical Companion Beast that was proficient in speed wouldnât be able to catch up. Since Demonic Neonate didnât chase after it, it was obvious that any attempts would be pointless.
From the looks of it, the Moon is doomed. Itâs not my fault.
Zhou Wen saw that the jade pestle of the Jade Rabbit was still stuck there. It couldnât take it away in time, so he walked over to put it away.
After the Seven Seas Dragon King dispelled the sticky liquid, Zhou Wen reached out to grab the jade pestle, hoping to pick it up, but after exerting some force, the jade pestle remained motionless.
Itâs heavy!
Zhou Wen held the jade pestle with both hands, hoping to pull it out.
However, the jade pestle remained motionless, surprising Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen got the Seven Seas Dragon King to extend its tentacles to sweep up the jade pestle, but even after using all its strength, the Seven Seas Dragon King failed to lift it.
It canât be! The Seven Seas Dragon King is at the Terror grade, but it canât even lift the jade pestle? How heavy is this jade pestle!
Zhou Wen was alarmed as he had another idea.
Perhaps itâs not just a matter of strength. The Seven Seas Dragon King can even move a building after all. Perhaps itâs possible that only the Jade Rabbit can lift this jade pestle.
Demonic Neonate suddenly turned her head in a direction. Zhou Wen turned his head and saw Jade Rabbit retracting its head and hiding behind the mountain.
Why is it back?
Zhou Wen thought for a moment and knew what was going on.
Jade Rabbit was definitely unwilling to part with the jade pestle, so it had come back for it.
âJade Rabbit, if you want the jade pestle back, exchange it with the Elixir of Immortality,â Zhou Wen shouted at the spot where Jade Rabbit was hiding.
Jade Rabbit seemed to know that Zhou Wen couldnât catch up to it, so it became a lot bolder. Although it didnât dare come over, it extended its head and paw from behind the mountain wall. Then, it raised its paw and made a universally-known gesture at Zhou Wen.
Holy sh*t, this rabbit actually knows that?
Zhou Wen was somewhat surprised.
Jade Rabbit knew that Zhou Wen couldnât lift its jade pestle, so it wasnât afraid of Zhou Wenâs threat. Zhou Wen really had no choice. The jade pestle was terrifyingly heavy. He couldnât lift it at all.
What should I do?
Zhou Wen glanced in the direction of Moon Palace and saw that the flames were becoming more and more blinding. Clearly, the logger was at a huge advantage. He didnât know how long Changâe and Ice Maiden could last.
Is the Moon really going to be destroyed?
Zhou Wen wondered how he could obtain the Elixir of Immortality from Jade Rabbit.
Jade Rabbitâs speed is too fast. If Demonic Neonate doesnât chase after it, it means that she knows that she canât catch up to it. Furthermore, Jade Rabbitâs strength and physical toughness are extremely terrifying. Itâs virtually impossible to catch it. However, if I donât stand any chance, why would the Moon Goddess send me? Does she want to use Jade Rabbit to kill me? But thereâs no need for that. She can even freeze Ice Maiden with her strength. If she wants to attack me, she could have done it in front of the Moon Goddess Temple.
But if I have a chance of obtaining the Elixir of Immortality, whereâs the chance? Jade Rabbit isnât someone I can match... Jade Rabbit... I seem to remember having something like that in the past...
Zhou Wen suddenly thought of something as he sank his consciousness into the Chaos Bead and rummaged around.
After a while, Zhou Wen found something.
It was a translucent jade box with mysterious cloud patterns on it. This jade box was something Zhou Wen had obtained from White Cloud Mountainâs Jade Rabbitâs Lunar Prayer Stone.
Back when The Thearch had guided him to obtain the jade box, he had only discovered some low-level dimensional crystals inside. Zhou Wen was quite disappointed because they werenât of much use.
He had felt that the jade box might be a little special, so he had stored it away in passing. Now, he suddenly recalled that the Jade Rabbitâs Lunar Prayer Stone was said to be a manifestation of the Jade Rabbit when it descended to the mortal world. The jade box was supposed to have been hidden by the Jade Rabbit. He didnât really know if it had anything to do with the Jade Rabbit.
