"It seems that this place is different from the other shore. The Taotie's divine kingdom is filled with the power of devouring. It can be said that the heavenly way of this world is the way of devouring. So even if you stay in the divine kingdom and do nothing, your power will continue to flow away."
He tried to resist this subtle devouring power, but it was all in vain. This was the Taotie Divine Kingdom. To resist the devouring power here was basically to go against the whole world. Unless one had the strength to surpass the Taotie, there was no way to do so.
Of all the methods Fang Xiu currently possesses, only the ability to become ethereal can resist this devouring power. However, activating etherealization consumes too much spiritual energy and is even faster than the devouring power of the Gluttonous God Kingdom, making it completely unnecessary to activate.
Based on the rate at which my spirituality dissipates, my power will be completely devoured in seven days at most. However, fortunately, there is still something strange here.
Suddenly, Fang Xiu turned his gaze to the strange snakes and insects dancing in the gray mist. The gluttonous mouth in his palm opened wide, like a whale swallowing its prey, frantically devouring the surrounding snakes and insects to replenish his own energy.
After a moment, he frowned slightly: "The spirituality hasn't recovered? These strange snakes and insects can't even provide power?"
He casually grabbed a strange snake-like creature, which hissed and struggled incessantly, its appearance ferocious and terrifying. He poured his power into the creature's body and examined it carefully, only to arrive at a surprising conclusion.
These strange creatures only possess physical strength, but not supernatural power.
In other words, these strange creatures are basically equivalent to larger-sized wild beasts.
Fang Xiu remained silent. It seemed that the Taotie Divine Kingdom not only devoured human power, but also devoured strange power. However, why did it only devour power and not flesh and blood?
Given the strength of the Taotie, all beings that enter the divine kingdom should have their bodies and power completely devoured. This is too strange. It's like drinking millet and sea cucumber porridge, only drinking the porridge and not eating the sea cucumber.
You should know that gluttons are not picky eaters.
It seems there are still secrets within the Taotie Kingdom.
Since they couldn't restore their power by devouring strange creatures, they had no choice but to rely on elixirs.
Fang Xiu took out a celestial pill from the Netherworld Ring, only to find that the originally crystal clear celestial pill, which was radiating celestial light, had dimmed and even had several fine cracks appear on its round body.
Not long after, a soft cracking sound was heard, and the elixir shattered, turning into grayish-white powder that was blown away by the wind and dissipated into the air.
"The strange phenomenon can no longer provide power, and the gray mist that permeates the air has turned into ordinary gray mist. Even the elixir is useless. This Taotie Divine Kingdom is indeed strange. It seems that any form of power will be completely devoured."
This is the conclusion Fang Xiu reached after several experiments: here, all power except physical strength will be devoured, except... divine power!
The only thing on him that was unharmed was the Ba Hui divine core, a divine treasure that was not affected by the Taotie. However, unfortunately, without spirituality, he could not activate the power of the divine core to transform into Ba Hui. He could only rely on the power of the divine core itself to perform some of the most basic operations.
It can be said that as long as he stays in the Taotie Divine Kingdom, Fang Xiu will completely become an ordinary person without any spirituality after seven days.
Even in the face of such a harsh environment, Fang Xiu still did not choose to leave the Taotie Divine Kingdom, because the situation outside was even more severe. Immortals, gods, and demons were all hunting him down. Although he had escaped unscathed time and time again, he did not relax his vigilance in the slightest.
Facing a god is like this: two extremes. Either you are unharmed or you die. A god's casual attack can kill you, so there is no such thing as being injured.
Each time he appears calm and collected, manipulating the gods at will, scaring them into not daring to descend to earth, all because of one premise: his wife's ethereal transformation.
The ability to become ethereal consumes a percentage of one's spiritual energy, and cannot be sustained for long. Those immortals, gods, and demons all know how to deal with etherealization, so now they launch long-range heavenly tribulation attacks as soon as they see me, without ever descending to the mortal realm in their true form, with the aim of exhausting my spiritual energy.
With his current strength, he is simply no match for the god's shameless methods.
Therefore, even though the Taotie Divine Kingdom may seem dangerous, it is actually much better than the outside world.
"Only seven days. It seems I need to find a way to maintain my power within seven days." Fang Xiu muttered to himself. He then activated the power of destiny, intending to find a way to maintain his power before his spiritual energy was exhausted, and also to see what was going on with the Taotie Divine Kingdom.
As a result, he died.
He died from the backlash of fate, and this time the backlash was even stronger, so strong that he didn't even see anything before he was killed.
Fang Xiu, who had just returned from the death loop, frowned slightly. He didn't understand why the backlash from fate was so strong this time. It wasn't this strong when he deduced the position of Taotie.
When the location of Taotie was deduced back then, it involved the gods. Now, when the deduction is being made in the Taotie God Kingdom, it will definitely involve the gods as well. Death is inevitable, but it shouldn't be that nothing can be deduced.
This left Fang Xiu completely baffled; it seemed that the Taotie Divine Kingdom truly held many hidden secrets.
Finally, he changed his approach, making the deduction results as vague as possible, only deducing which direction would be most advantageous for him. This time, he got the answer—East!
After receiving the answer, Fang Xiu committed suicide. After all, his spiritual energy was constantly being depleted, and the deduction also consumed spiritual energy, so he wanted to save as much as possible.
After rewinding, Fang Xiu headed straight east. Along the way, he was constantly attacked by snakes, insects, and strange creatures, and even some high-level strange creatures. However, these high-level strange creatures had long since lost their power and were like toothless tigers.
Before his spirituality had completely dissipated, dealing with these strange beings was like using firearms to bully primitive people.
