The paper is a continuation of Part I [the author, Proc. Lond. Math. Soc. (3) 110, No. 5, 1099--1134 (2015; Zbl 1338.11082)]. Topological zeta functions of groups, algebras, and modules were introduced by \textit{M. du Sautoy} and \textit{F. Loeser} [Sel. Math., New Ser. 10, No. 2, 253--303 (2004; Zbl 1062.14029)] as asymptotic invariants related to the enumeration of subgroups, subalgebras and submodules respectively. The author gives a general algorithm making it possible, ``in favorable circumstances'', to compute topological zeta functions. The author explains his method as follows. ``At the heart of the present article lies the notion of a toric datum. A toric datum consists of a half-open cone within some Euclidean space and a finite collection of Laurent polynomials. We will begin our study of toric data in Section 3, where we will also relate them to the cone integral data of \textit{M. du Sautoy} and \textit{F. Grunewald} [Ann. Math. (2) 152, No. 3, 793--833 (2000; Zbl 1006.11051)]. As we will see, toric data give rise to associated \(p\)-adic integrals \dots and to topological zeta functions by means of a limit \(p\to 1\).''
