Upon seeing this scene, everyone's expressions varied.
Ling Xinghe was overjoyed, as if he could already see himself ruling the world, leaving this prison, and becoming a true god.
Ling Ling and the others looked on with despair.
"Stop him! We must not let him obtain the divine status of Nuwa!"
Unfortunately, Fang Xiu ignored him and stood quietly to the side.
In the end, the divine spark still fell into Ling Xinghe's hands, which made him feel very unreal. The final battle he had imagined was not there, nor were there any traps. Did these people give up?
He had thought this path would be incredibly difficult, and he was even prepared to be attacked by the masses, but to his surprise, it went so smoothly.
"Hahaha... The divine spark is mine now!" Ling Xinghe laughed wildly, no longer caring about Fang Xiu and the others' schemes. As long as he had the divine spark, no one could stir up any trouble.
He couldn't wait to swallow the divine spark whole. Instantly, boundless power erupted, and his entire body was enveloped in five colors, making him look like a saint.
But the next second, Ling Xinghe's expression changed, and his body began to collapse involuntarily. Clearly, what was fake was ultimately fake, and he could not truly control the Nuwa Godhead.
However, he did not appear overly panicked. Instead, he roared, "Flower Goddess, help me!"
A burst of black light suddenly erupted from the black lotus between his brows, and with the help of the black light, the collapse of his body slowly stopped.
Ling Xinghe began frantically fusing with Nuwa's divine essence, and the two sides entered a stalemate of struggle.
At this moment, Bai Xiangqing was overjoyed: "The opportunity has come! He is not a descendant of Nuwa after all. Although the repulsion he experiences is small, the fusion will not be smooth. Even with the help of the Flower Goddess, he will not be able to control the divine spark for a while. Quickly stop him now!"
Bai Xiangqing and the others finally understood Fang Xiu's plan at this moment. They couldn't help but admire his audacity. Knowing that Ling Xinghe was not a match for him, he deliberately gave him an opportunity to fuse with the divine spark. During the fusion process, Ling Xinghe would be unable to make a move, and then he could kill the enemy in one fell swoop!
Despite his severe injuries, he ran to Lingling's side and untied the ropes from her clothes.
"Ling'er, can you still fight?"
Ling Ling nodded solemnly, then looked at Fang Xiu: "Lord Fang Xiu, I misunderstood you. I didn't expect you to create an opportunity in this way. Let's make our move; victory or defeat depends on this!"
As they spoke, Ling Ling and Bai Xiangqing rushed toward Ling Xinghe, but halfway there they realized something was wrong, because Fang Xiu and the others hadn't come at all and were still standing in the same spot.
The two were terrified.
"Lord Fang Xiu, if you don't act now, when will you?"
Fang Xiu shook his head and said calmly, "No rush."
He wasn't in a hurry, but Ling and Ling were extremely anxious. In their eyes, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Originally, they needed to deal with Ling Xinghe, who possessed the body of a true god, but now they only needed to deal with two demigod clones.
Ling Ling believed that after activating Nuwa's mythical form, she would be able to deal with one of the clones, while Fang Xiu and the others would have to work together to deal with the other. It wasn't that she had no chance of winning.
"What!? No rush?" Bai Xiangqing's anxiety aggravated his injuries, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. "Do you know that once Ling Xinghe merges with Nuwa's divine essence, his power will be infinitely close to that of a god!"
At this moment, Xu Ruohai chuckled. Now, only he truly understood Fang Xiu's plan, because the moment Nuwa's divine spark appeared, his long-lost spirituality finally reappeared, albeit extremely weakly, and was rapidly recovering.
If I am like this, then what need is there for Your Excellency the True God?
All I can say is, he truly lives up to his title of God!
"What does it matter if one is infinitely close to a god?" Xu Ruohai chuckled, but his words earned him two looks from them as if he were an idiot.
That look seemed to be questioning, "Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"
Xu Ruohai remained unperturbed, becoming increasingly nonchalant: "Haven't you always wanted to know our identities? Haven't you always been curious why I call Lord Fang Xiu a true god?"
It's actually quite simple. As Ling Xinghe said, Lord Fang Xiu and I did indeed come from the outside world. And I am not very talented; I was a demigod in the outside world. You might not understand this, but to put it simply, in my prime, I could crush Ling Xinghe, who had no divine status, as easily as crushing an ant. Even if he had a divine body, he was just an empty shell without any power.
And Lord Fang Xiu..."
At this point, a fanatical glint appeared in Xu Ruohai's eyes: "He is the true god! So what if Ling Xinghe merged with Nuwa's divine essence?! He may be infinitely close to a god, but he is still not a god!"
A true god!?
A look of disbelief flashed in Ling Ling's and the other's eyes, as if they had heard a fairy tale.
"I admit that Lord Fang Xiu is very strong, but he is probably far from being a god..."
"What do you know!" Xu Ruohai scolded, "Lord Fang Xiu was injured before. After entering this realm, he lost all his power. Now that his divine spark has appeared, the devouring laws in the surrounding area have been completely driven away, and Lord Fang Xiu's power is recovering."
Once Lord Fang Xiu regains his power, what is Ling Xinghe to him? He is a top-tier deity comparable to Nuwa!
After saying that, he looked at Fang Xiu with fervor: "Lord Fang Xiu! Please make your move! Show your supreme power before these natives!"
Xu Ruohai seemed to have already envisioned Fang Xiu using the power of time to crush Ling Xinghe into dust.
In his heart, Fang Xiu was no less than an ancient goddess like Nuwa, because Fang Xiu controlled the power of time and was the God of Time! Such a god would be the most outstanding existence no matter where he was.
However, Fang Xiu calmly countered with a question: "How much of your strength have you recovered?"
Xu Ruohai replied enthusiastically, "Less than one-tenth."
"Well, how much do you think I've recovered now?"
“You are naturally… um…” The fanaticism on Xu Ruohai’s face faded completely, and his face turned slightly pale, clearly realizing a serious problem.
It takes time to recover their strength. After all, their power was completely devoured by the Taotie Divine Kingdom, which was equivalent to going through a major battle and exhausting all their strength.
It's not that it's sealed away, but rather that it's exhausted. Once the seal is broken, the power will return.
Therefore, we can only recover our strength little by little now.
This is a bit awkward.
When the adrenaline wore off, Xu Ruohai's old habit returned: "Your Excellency, what should we do now? According to my observation, Ling Xinghe will be able to initially fuse with Nuwa's divine essence in about an hour. However, in this short hour, I can only recover 30% of my strength at most. This... this... should we run away?"
Fang Xiu responded calmly, "It's alright, thirty percent is enough."
