The towering figure instantly shrank dramatically, becoming a figure indistinguishable from a normal person, and then ran towards Fang Xiu at lightning speed.
While running, it cried tears of joy, its arms outstretched, and its nine heads swayed in the wind like nine balloons as it ran.
When the Kunlun maggot was less than a hundred meters away from Fang Xiu, it suddenly knelt down. Due to inertia, its body slid down to a kneeling position, leaving two long tracks on the ground. Finally, it slid down to Fang Xiu, grabbed his thigh, and wept bitterly.
The control over power and distance is exquisite!
"Waaah... My lord! This old servant thought I would never see you again."
Xu Ruohai, standing to the side, was dumbfounded by the scene before him. He could sense that the demon clinging to the true god's leg was a sovereign-level demon, equivalent to a human demigod. Could it be that even a sovereign-level demon had been subdued by the true god?
"Is this your new body?" Fang Xiu asked calmly.
Kunlun Maggot hurriedly replied, "Yes, my lord. This is the Nine Netherworld Ruler that I painstakingly pieced together over many years. The original Nine Netherworld Ruler died long ago in Kunlun Mountain, and I was conceived from their corpses. Relying on my memories, I used countless demons to successfully create it."
"How strong are they?"
"Peak of demigod." Kunlun Maggot said cautiously, secretly glancing at Fang Xiu's expression out of the corner of its eye, trying to see if there was any change. But it was disappointed. Fang Xiu did not change his expression at all after hearing the words "peak of demigod," as if he did not take the peak of demigod seriously at all.
It then secretly glanced at the two people following Fang Xiu and was immediately shocked. Wasn't this the demigod Xu Ruohai who had chased after Fang Laomo back then?
Why does your gaze often hold such fervor?
Who is this little white-haired girl? Wow! What incredible vitality!
Damn, these two seem to be among the best in the demigod realm, yet they're both following Old Demon Fang. Could it be that Old Demon Fang's strength has improved over the past ten years?
Fortunately, I was quick-witted and didn't turn against Old Demon Fang on the spot, otherwise I would definitely have suffered a loss!
Fang Xiu was not surprised at all by the Kunlun Maggot's peak demigod strength. Only he knew the origin of the Kunlun Maggot. It was a being born from the corpses of countless powerful beings in ancient times, and it was also blessed by the ancient artifact Kunlun Mirror. Its foundation had already surpassed that of most people in the world.
It's like a protagonist in a wish-fulfillment novel, possessing the memories of countless ancient powerhouses and accompanied by divine artifacts. With such potential, if it weren't for its own limitations, it would have already reached the peak of demigod status.
If it could obtain a divine spark, Fang Xiu wouldn't be surprised if it became a god.
At this moment, the Kunlun maggot went into a frenzy of flattery. Realizing that it might still be no match for Old Demon Fang, it became even more obsequious.
"My lord, it has been many years since we last met. Your figure is still so majestic, and your temperament is as aloof as a snow-capped mountain in the sky, like an ancient god-emperor looking down on all living beings. My lord, please forgive this old servant's rudeness and allow this old servant to admire your divine countenance a little longer."
Fang Xiu ignored Kunlun Maggot's flattery and said calmly, "Where are the spider lilies you've collected over the years?"
When he entered the Taotie Divine Kingdom, he deliberately placed the Kunlun Maggots outside so that they could collect the flowers of the other shore.
Upon hearing the words "other shore flower," Kunlun Maggot's heart skipped a beat. In the past few years, it had indeed been diligently collecting them, but as time went on and Fang Xiu failed to appear, it inevitably developed other thoughts and became somewhat lax in its efforts.
To be honest, these past ten years have been the happiest ten years of Kunlun Maggot's life. He has been free, carefree, and lawless!
He kills any evil spirit he dislikes, steals any body he desires, becomes a mountain king, gathers many followers, and dominates the region.
When a person gets proud, they easily become arrogant, especially a maggot like the Kunlun Maggot who has never been proud before.
He feigned composure, though he was actually drenched in sweat, and respectfully led Fang Xiu and the others into Black Mountain: "My lord, this way please. The other shore flower is kept in this old servant's cave. Oh, my lord, I almost forgot to tell you, this Black Mountain is called Fang Mountain. This old servant specially named it after your surname. In these years, since you have not been by my side, this is the only way I can relieve my longing."
Fang Xiu didn't react at all, but Xu Ruohai's eyes grew increasingly wary, as if he had encountered a destined opponent.
Upon entering the Kunlun Maggot's cave, everyone was immediately enveloped in a treasure trove of light. This was no cave; it was a veritable treasure vault, resplendent in gold and jade, filled with divine gold, immortal jade, celestial artifacts, demonic weapons, and all sorts of rare and precious treasures.
There were even two rows of pale-skinned, pretty humanoid female demons standing respectfully on either side at the entrance. When the Kunlun maggot entered, they hurriedly bowed stiffly and said, "Greetings, Master."
The Kunlun maggot panicked at a visible speed, hurriedly dismissing everyone, and then obsequiously explained to Fang Xiu, "My lord, please don't misunderstand. These are all corpse demons formed from the corpses of female cultivators after their deaths. Although they are not strong in combat, they retain some of their instincts from before they died. Compared to other demons, they are quite skillful and are most suitable for picking the flowers of the other shore. Unlike other demons, they are clumsy and easily damage the flowers of the other shore."
"Where are the flowers?" Fang Xiu asked calmly.
"Here, here, my lord, please come with me."
The Kunlun maggot led Fang Xiu and the others deep into the cave, where there was a huge stone chamber. After pushing open the door, a mountain of spider lilies was immediately revealed.
Xu Ruohai was taken aback. This was the first time he had ever seen so many spider lilies gathered together. The overwhelming malevolence they exuded was enough to devour a person alive.
"My lord, these are all spider lilies that this old servant painstakingly collected over more than ten years. During that time, I don't know how many dangers I went through and how many bodies I destroyed. You..."
"Is that all?" Fang Xiu's calm voice rang out, but Kunlun Que, who knew him well, felt a jolt in his heart and knelt down with a thud.
"My lord! My lord, please let me explain. This old servant has picked all the spider lilies within a million miles. The main reason is that this old servant was worried that you wouldn't be able to find me after you came out, so this old servant didn't dare to go far away, so...so..."
The Kunlun maggot became increasingly uneasy as it tried to explain, because it knew Fang Xiu's personality well; he simply wouldn't listen to anyone's explanations. But to its surprise, Fang Xiu didn't punish it this time; instead, he calmly nodded.
For a moment, Kunlun Maggot felt no elation, but rather surprise and uncertainty. He felt somewhat uneasy and even suspiciously glanced at Fang Xiu's back.
Could it be that this fiend is wary of my strength?
However, just as this rebellious thought arose, Fang Xiu opened his palm, and a mysterious and obscure fluctuation of destiny appeared in his hand. The light and shadow shifted, and a picture slowly took shape.
