"If we don't leave now, it will be too late!" Bai Xiangqing shouted.
Ling Ling silently shed tears, took one last look at Fang Xiu and the other person who had been devoured, and then turned and left.
Before leaving, she thought of Xu Ruohai standing beside her and couldn't bear to see him die in vain: "Run!"
Unexpectedly, Xu Ruohai shook his head and said confidently, "You must believe in God."
He was absolutely certain that Fang Xiu was a true god, and he simply couldn't believe that Fang Xiu would die in such a place.
However, in the eyes of Ling Ling and the others, Xu Ruohai's words were nothing short of madness.
"They've all gone mad! Don't worry about them, let's go!" Bai Xiangqing hurriedly pulled Ling Ling up, and the group quickly fled into the distance.
But just then, a shocking change occurred!
Ling Xinghe, who was in mid-air, suddenly cried out in alarm, his expression extremely horrified, even more so than when he had seen Ling Ling's mythical form before!
"No!! This is impossible! My power as the Flower Goddess!!"
His scream made Ling Ling and the others stop in their tracks and turn around to see a scene they would never forget.
Beneath the cascading waterfall of flowers, a figure quietly appeared. He held his sister in his arms, his left hand raised high, and a vortex like a black hole frantically absorbed the surging red spider lilies. Compared to the black sea of flowers that filled the sky and earth, his figure undoubtedly appeared very small, but this tiny figure blocked the terrifying torrent of flowers with a single hand.
His presence was like a clear dividing line, with black spider lilies covering the sky and earth in front of him, and a pure land behind him.
"This... how is this possible?!" Ling Ling, Bai Xiangqing, and the others froze on the spot, staring intently at the figure who was blocking the sea of flowers with one hand, their pupils filled with disbelief.
"See? I told you long ago, you must believe in God." Xu Ruohai's calm voice rang out from the side, showing no surprise whatsoever.
"God?" Ling Ling murmured softly, her eyes glazed over.
"Who exactly are you?! How can you devour my Flower Goddess Power?!" Ling Xinghe was utterly horrified. The Flower Goddess Power was his greatest trump card. The reason he was able to plot against the Empress back then was because of the Flower Goddess Power. But now, his greatest trump card had failed!
Amidst the black sea of flowers, Fang Xiu stood proudly, as endless spider lilies poured into his gluttonous mouth. At the same time, the nascent Black Lotus Law of the Other Shore within his body was rapidly taking shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Fang Yao, nestled in his arms, stared intently at the man before her. The fluttering, alluring spider lilies surrounded them, making them feel as if they were in a sea of flowers.
"The Goddess of Flowers?" A calm voice came from Fang Xiu's mouth: "I still prefer to call her the Black Lotus of the Other Shore."
Ling Xinghe's pupils suddenly contracted. The Black Lotus of the Other Shore? Could this be the Flower Goddess's real name? How did he know this, and judging from his tone, he seemed to have known the Flower Goddess for a long time?
"Could it be that you...?"
Fang Xiu interrupted directly, saying, "Don't misunderstand, I have no relation to the Black Lotus of the Other Shore. If I had to say there is one, it would probably be a food relationship. It is currently my most desired nourishment."
To prevent Ling Xinghe from calling himself one of their own, he had already cut off the other party's escape route in advance.
Ling Xinghe was both shocked and furious: "Playing tricks! You feed on gods? Even Taotie couldn't do that, how could you possibly do it?! You must be faking it! Just now, my blood and qi were enough to burst your left arm, let alone the power of the Flower Goddess! I'd like to see how much you can devour! The Bridge to the Other Shore!"
The power of the Flower Goddess erupted from his body once more, and countless black petals seemed to bloom and fall in the void, like a dream.
Gradually, the heavens and earth began to tremble, and countless spider lilies gathered together, transforming into a bridge to the heavens. The dark petals swayed in the wind, like burning black flames.
Faced with such a terrifying attack, even Fang Xiu, with his composure, couldn't help but smile. He never expected that the small Taotie Divine Kingdom could bring him so many surprises. It was truly wonderful!
First came Taotie and Nuwa, and now the Black Lotus of the Other Shore has appeared. If handled properly, he could even condense the Taotie Decree, the Life Decree, and the Other Shore Decree all here! Moreover, all three of these decrees are divine decrees!
Admittedly, Ling Xinghe's massive blood and qi had previously burst his left arm, but that was because his body couldn't withstand such a huge amount of life force. After all, he didn't have the Law of Life. But it was different when facing the Other Shore Flower. He had devoured many Other Shore Flowers in the mortal world before, and he would do the same in the Other Shore. His strong foundation created a semi-condensed Law of the Other Shore.
Just when I was worried about not finding enough spider lilies to fill the Laws of the Other Shore, Ling Xinghe really delivered a pillow when I was sleepy.
The next moment, the Taotie's mouth opened wide, and the five Taotie Laws were activated at full power. The terrifying devouring power erupted wildly, and a phantom of the Taotie slowly condensed behind Fang Xiu. The phantom opened its abyssal maw and swallowed the Other Shore Bridge whole in one gulp!
When Ling Xinghe saw this scene, he looked as if the sky had fallen. His mouth opened involuntarily, his throat went dry, and he couldn't say a word.
Ling Ling and the others standing to the side were even more shocked than before. For a moment, they suddenly understood why Xu Ruohai called Fang Xiu a god.
But at that moment, Fang Xiu's originally upright body began to sway precariously, and with a spurt, a mouthful of blood suddenly gushed from his mouth.
A hint of worry flashed across Fang Yao's expressionless face. She quickly broke free from his embrace, landed on the ground, and helped Fang Xiu catch his breath.
Upon seeing this, Ling Xinghe, who was initially panicked, was stunned for a moment, then burst into wild laughter: "Hahaha... I knew it! I knew no one could withstand the power of the Flower Goddess! Kid, you must feel uncomfortable after consuming so much of the Flower Goddess's power, right? Do you feel countless roots growing inside your body?"
Hahaha... Don't rush, this is just the beginning. Soon, countless seeds will take root and sprout within you, growing strong and healthy. Eventually, you will be drained into a dried-up corpse, a dried-up corpse covered in spider lilies. I call this the Flower Burial!
The feeling of almost being overturned and then coming back to win made even the gloomy-minded Ling Xinghe a little overconfident.
It's just like when you're playing a game, you've already retreated to the enemy's base but you don't push, and then you start typing to your teammates: "Don't push, don't push, you're spawn camping!" You might even type to the opponents to publicly taunt them.
At this moment, Fang Xiu, who was spitting blood, looked at Ling Xinghe with a sharp gaze: "I really can't absorb any more Flower Goddess power, but you've also reached the point of exhaustion. I don't believe you have any more Flower Goddess power left!"
