After Ling Xinghe left, the generals, knowing they were no match for him, led their troops in disarray and fled.
Fang Xiu naturally wouldn't agree, and continued to attack, devouring tens of thousands more people until his body could no longer withstand such a massive amount of life force. Only then did he stop, letting the other party leave, waiting to devour them again on his next trip to Canglan Kingdom.
He silently sensed the changes in his body. His physical strength had reached the edge of the third sublimation, and had even exceeded the limit. He only needed to go into seclusion for a period of time to break through.
The temporal laws have split in half, with only the tail remaining partially connected.
Of course, the biggest gain was the Black Lotus Decree within her body. Under the nourishment of a large amount of Flower Goddess power, the Black Lotus Decree, which was about to take shape, finally took complete shape. Moreover, due to absorbing too much of the Black Lotus Divine Power from the Other Shore, it had become a genuine divine decree, just like the Gluttonous Decree, by shedding its falsehoods and retaining its true essence!
He now understands the true key to gathering the divine law: divine power!
The Taotie Decree was formed because of the Taotie God's power, and the Black Lotus Decree was formed because of the Black Lotus God's power. If you want to continue to form decrees such as Angels and the God of Happiness in the future, the best way is to directly steal the other party's power.
As the Black Lotus Laws coalesced, Fang Xiu discovered that there were actually quite a few otherworldly flowers in this world, mostly blooming in the Canglan Kingdom of the Central Plains.
The Black Lotus Decree had a faint connection with those spider lilies, so he could easily sense their presence.
He could even sense that every second, the flowers of the other shore were pouring into the Taotie Divine Kingdom.
Sensing the various mysteries of the Black Lotus Decree, Fang Xiu had a vague guess in his heart.
He suspected that the presence of the Other Shore Flower in the Taotie Kingdom was likely a deliberate act by the Other Shore Black Lotus, since the Taotie was constantly eating and would eat anything that came its way.
The Black Lotus of the Other Shore took the opportunity to let Taotie devour its countless clones. Finally, the clones gathered in Taotie's divine kingdom, accumulated enough power, took root and sprouted in Taotie's divine kingdom, absorbed nutrients, and eventually turned Taotie into its clones!
This plan has probably been going on for tens of thousands of years. After all, both are demon gods, and it is no small feat to assimilate an existence of the same level into a clone.
The reason why the Black Lotus of the Other Shore got involved with Ling Xinghe was probably because she discovered the goddess Nuwa's divine essence in the Taotie Divine Kingdom, and thus she wanted to have both Nuwa and Taotie.
It's truly a case of the snipe and the clam fighting while the fisherman reaps the benefits!
Nuwa's divine status and Taotie's divine kingdom have always been in a state of mutual influence and confrontation, while the Black Lotus of the Other Shore is hidden in the dark, subtly infiltrating.
Perhaps Ling Xinghe's ambush of the Empress was not entirely unrelated to the bewitching influence of the Black Lotus of the Other Shore. After all, Nuwa's divine power was too strong. Even without anyone controlling her divine power, she could still withstand the erosion of the Taotie Divine Kingdom. Keep in mind that Taotie was still alive, while Nuwa was already dead.
That's why the Black Lotus of the Other Shore helped Ling Xinghe kill Nuwa's descendant. Otherwise, why would such divine power be controlled by a mere mortal? The Black Lotus of the Other Shore must have had some ulterior motive towards Ling Xinghe to bestow divine power upon him.
The true purpose of Bi'an Heiliang should be to unite with the power of the Taotie Divine Kingdom to deal with the Nuwa Divine Spark. After obtaining the Divine Spark, he would then use its power to frantically multiply his clones, occupy the Taotie Divine Kingdom, and thus control Taotie!
Fang Xiu, who possesses the Black Lotus Law, is well aware of the help that Nuwa's divine essence can provide to clones. As long as one has enough vitality, one can theoretically create an unlimited number of clones!
Meanwhile, under the verbal attack from Xu Ruohai, Ling Ling and the others also realized the magnitude of their mistake and felt extremely ashamed.
Since everyone had fought together, and now that the battle was over, and Fang Yao was still by Fang Xiu's side, Ling Ling wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, she subtly persuaded Fang Yao to join the Holy Sect with Fang Xiu.
Bai Xiangqing went even further, revealing the truth about how he killed Fang Yao back then, hoping to clear up the misunderstanding.
"Yaoyao, your sister didn't actually intend to kill you back then. She suffered for ten long years while you were gone. When I rescued you two from the palace, the poison in your bodies flared up during our escape, and with my skills at the time, I could only save one of you."
At that time, your sister knelt on the ground crying and begged me to save you, but I refused. Your sister was older and had already awakened the bloodline of Nuwa, so she had a very strong life force. You, on the other hand, had not yet awakened and your body was very weak. Even if I removed the poison from you, you would probably not survive. That's why I chose your sister.
But your sister refused. She said she wanted to use even the slightest chance to save you. Bai Xiangqing seemed lost in that painful and difficult memory from back then, a look of anguish appearing in his eyes.
Both of them were his beloved children, and he didn't want to give up either of them if he could.
Fang Yao remained expressionless; no matter what the other party said, it couldn't change the fact that Ling Ling had killed her.
Bai Xiangqing continued, "It was I who did not follow your sister's wishes and forcibly detoxified her. I also told her that as long as she possessed the bloodline of Nuwa, she would have the opportunity to wield the divine power of Nuwa in the future. Once she wielded the divine power of Nuwa, she could be resurrected. Only then did your sister accept reality."
As for why I killed you, it was my idea. After the detoxification was completed, my strength was greatly reduced, and I was powerless to protect you two sisters as you left the city. But if I left you behind, that beast Ling Xinghe would definitely take advantage of your bloodline, and he also has the antidote. You would then suffer inhuman torture. That beast is capable of anything, so I suggested killing you and resurrecting you later when your sister takes control of Nuwa's divine status.
Your sister said you've always been afraid of pain, so she did it herself. But no one expected that you would awaken the bloodline of Nuwa at the moment of your death and be brought back to life…”
At this point, Ling Ling was already sobbing uncontrollably. The thought of her sister's suffering in the barbaric royal court all these years was like a knife to her heart, but it was too late to say anything now.
She went over to hug Fang Yao, but Fang Yao dodged her with a blank expression.
Fang Yao left because Fang Xiu left.
Fang Xiu had no interest in listening to such trivial matters. He had been studying his new law, the Black Lotus Law. Although it was not currently activated by spiritual energy, it could still use some basic abilities, just like the immunity to all poisons brought by the Ba Hui Godhood.
This may be because the Black Lotus of the Other Shore has been rooted in this world for ten thousand years, and its own characteristics have quietly integrated into this world. However, compared with the influence of Taotie and Nuwa, it is still too weak, so there is not much external manifestation.
Now, he's going to test the Black Lotus Law's ability—cloning!
