Xu Ruohai's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly exerted force with his palm, tearing off one of Kunlun Maggot's arms.
Instead of the expected shrill screams, a string of curses erupted.
"Fuck your ancestors! You son of a bitch, this was a body I carefully selected! I've only used it for a few days, and you... you son of a bitch!"
A string of vulgar and filthy words spewed from her rosy and delicate little mouth, most of them even being words from the real world.
The Kunlun maggot didn't waste its time in the modern world. It discovered that although the strength of the modern world is not as great as that of the ancient times, there is at least one thing that the ancient times could not match: swearing.
Xu Ruohai was stunned by the scolding: "You've possessed someone else's body?"
"I'll take your ***!" Kunlun Maggot glared angrily, wishing he could tear Xu Ruohai to pieces.
Xu Ruohai was utterly displeased. A dazzling beam of immortal light suddenly erupted from his hand, instantly obliterating the Kunlun maggot's body.
At that moment, a ghost escaped from his grasp, cursing as it ran: "You son of a bitch, just you wait! Sooner or later, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
A cold glint flashed in Xu Ruohai's eyes: "Trying to run?"
He suddenly conjured a large hand of azure light, upon which countless profound laws surged, and reached out to grab the Kunlun maggot, but he grasped at nothing.
"Hehehe... You ant, you think you can catch me? You think you're worthy?"
The Kunlun Maggot is a peculiar creature born from the remnants of countless ancient powerful beings' corpses and souls, as well as from the Kunlun Mirror. Although it is not strong, it is exceptionally difficult to kill and possesses time attributes. It can even escape through time gaps and is very difficult to catch.
"What!?" Xu Ruohai was slightly startled. He hadn't expected that a mere remnant soul would be so troublesome. He could only watch helplessly as the Kunlun maggot returned to Fang Xiu's body.
Fang Xiu did not sit idly by and wait for death. Now that this terrifying storm had enveloped him, once his power was exhausted and he was deactivated, his fate would be death.
After his death, Xu Ruohai will not obtain godhood because he does not possess godhood, and this storyline will repeat itself.
Rewinding now won't be of much use, because Xu Ruohai has been watching him secretly. So whenever he tries to leave using the Great Teleportation Array, the other party will definitely stop him. It's also unrealistic to try to escape on foot; he definitely can't outrun a demigod.
The only solution now is to find a way to deal with Xu Ruohai.
But how easy is it to deal with a demigod?
Fang Xiu suddenly transformed into a streak of light and sped away into the distance.
A mocking smile flashed across Xu Ruohai's lips. He lightly waved his sleeve, and the storm that enveloped the heavens and earth immediately began to move with Fang Xiu. What he wanted to do was to keep Fang Xiu constantly enveloped by the storm and launch a continuous attack until the opponent's power was exhausted and he had no choice but to come out from another space.
He followed Fang Xiu at a leisurely pace, neither too far nor too close, giving Fang Xiu no chance to use the power of time to counterattack.
The scene was terrifying. Fang Xiu seemed to be moving under a world-destroying tornado. Wherever he went, the tornado followed, always enveloping him. Wherever he passed, nothing grew, the clouds were torn apart, the earth was overturned, and even the void was cracked by the storm.
Before long, Fang Xiu had already run out of the Void Moon Palace.
When the armies of the various sects outside saw this scene, they were terrified, thinking that a true god had come to settle scores after dealing with their sect leader, and they turned and ran away.
Fang Xiu naturally wouldn't let them go; he wanted to rely on these people to deplete the storm's power.
"Your Excellency True God has a clever scheme, trying to use these ants to deplete the power of the storm. But do you think you can outlast a demigod?" Xu Ruohai's light laughter echoed from a great distance behind him.
Fang Xiu did not answer. He naturally knew that relying on these people to deplete the storm's power was far from enough, but his goal was never to wait for the storm to dissipate. As long as he depleted even a fraction of Xu Ruohai's power, he would have a better chance of winning and could also eliminate these enemies who came to kill the god.
Moments later, tens of thousands of immortals scattered and fled, leaving behind only a pile of torn corpses.
Looking at the countless corpses before him, Fang Xiu felt it was a waste. He could only watch as the power dissipated from the corpses and eventually vanished into the world. He couldn't devour them because he was in a state of etherealization and couldn't interact with the outside world. To devour them, he would have to break free from the etherealization, but the problem was that breaking free from the etherealization meant death.
About an incense stick later.
"Your Excellency, surrender! If I wanted to, I could maintain this storm for at least a month. And you? With your newly ascended immortality, how long can you maintain this state of nothingness? Besides, where can you escape to? Looking across the entire Southern Yue, who can stop me?"
Fang Xiu did not reply, but silently calculated in his mind. His goal was the Moon God Ruins. The only way to escape or even kill Xu Ruohai was to enter the Moon God Ruins, a place where even demigods could easily perish. However, the bad news was that with his remaining strength, he was not enough to maintain his ethereal form and run all the way to the Moon God Ruins.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.
The storm stopped in its tracks, and Xu Ruohai, seeing this, quickly braked and retreated a hundred miles before laughing and saying, "What's wrong, True God? Have you resigned yourself to fate?"
Fang Xiu ignored him and instead asked the Kunlun maggot, "Do you want to kill him?"
The Kunlun Maggot's voice rang out through gritted teeth: "I want it, I dream about it! That little beast dared to ruin this old servant's body, this old servant wishes he could tear him to pieces!"
Given the age of the Kunlun maggot, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call Xu Ruohai a little beast.
"Very well, then go and kill Xu Ruohai."
Kunlun Maggot: "..."
"My...My lord, you must be joking. In my current state, how could I possibly kill a demigod?"
"You said before that the Moon Wheel only needed one more artifact spirit to be upgraded to a divine artifact?"
A bad feeling suddenly welled up in Kunlun Maggot's heart: "Is...is that right?"
"During my time at the Void Moon Palace, I read descriptions of the birth of divine artifacts in ancient texts. I suppose the Void Moon Palace collected them specifically to create the Moon Wheel. The ancient texts say that divine artifacts are instruments that defy the heavens and are intolerable to the heavens and earth. Therefore, when they are born, the heavens will send down terrible calamities. Is this true?"
