Because the real threat has never been Cerberus or the Frost Giants, but Queen Medusa!
His strength at the late stage of the seventh rank was unparalleled, and his petrification technique was impossible to defend against. It could be said that if Fang Xiu hadn't used his wife's phantom to lure Medusa away, everyone in the entire Wangchuan Domain would have turned into stone statues after today.
“Fellow Daoist Fang, although you have lured Medusa away with your methods, this is not a long-term solution. Once she regains her senses, she will definitely come back for revenge. It would be better to take advantage of the time we still have and move her away as soon as possible,” Yang Xian said in a deep voice.
Wan Jun was taken aback: "Transfer? But what about the souls within the domain?"
"Take as much as you can."
"But......"
Yang Xian interrupted, "There's no 'but' about it. This is already the best outcome. Fellow Daoist Fang has bought us enough time to transfer the souls within the domain. Do we really want to stay here and fight Medusa to the death?"
As you all just witnessed, her strength is even greater than you imagined. In her berserk state, she can even rival the peak of the seventh rank. Especially considering that she hasn't used her most proficient petrification ability yet, once she does, she will definitely be able to fight against the peak of the seventh rank.
Currently, I'm the only seventh-rank True God in the entire Wangchuan Domain, and I'm only at the mid-stage. How can I possibly withstand Medusa? Cutting my losses is the only way forward.
Yang Xian's words left Wan Jun and Daoist Baiyun speechless. They were extremely unwilling, after all, they had already dealt with two Heavenly Demon Gods and the situation was very favorable, but in the end they still had to run away.
Of course, they did not question Yang Xian's decision, because they knew that Yang Xian was right. Medusa was too strong. Even the strongest person in the domain was no match for her. The others would just be throwing their lives away.
If they don't escape, once Medusa returns, Yang Xian will be defeated, and the entire Wangchuan Domain will be wiped out.
Just then, a calm voice broke the silence: "No need to move."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Fang Xiu, their faces filled with expectation and surprise.
Since learning Fang Xiu's identity, they have placed great trust in him and are looking forward to hearing some good advice from him.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, could you possibly deal with Medusa?" Daoist Baiyun asked in surprise. He was the last person who wanted to leave because there weren't many rivers in the Underworld. If he left the River of Oblivion in the River of Oblivion Domain, he didn't know when he would be able to catch a fish again.
Facing the expectant gazes of the crowd, Fang Xiu remained calm and said, "No."
Master Baiyun: "..."
Yang Xian: "......"
Wan Jun: "......"
The atmosphere fell silent again, this time with a hint of awkwardness.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, then why not move?" Yang Xian tried to break the deadlock.
However, Fang Xiu did not answer, but instead brought up another matter: "I need your Sun-Swallowing Divine Power."
Yang Xian remained expressionless, without the slightest hesitation or questioning, and with a flick of his wrist, a black, hollowed-out sphere composed of countless tiny dark runes appeared in his hand, which he then handed over.
Fang Xiu took the black, hollowed-out sphere, opened the mouth of the Taotie on his left hand, and swallowed it in one gulp.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, this is the Sun-Devouring Divine Power inherited in my bloodline. Legend has it that when this divine power reaches its peak, it can easily devour even the sun transformed from a true golden crow. However, this divine power is obscure and difficult to understand. Even the most talented person will find it difficult to master it in less than a hundred years."
Fang Xiu slowly closed his eyes and remained silent.
Yang Xian and the other two stood there, completely bewildered, none of them knowing what he was doing.
About an incense stick later, Fang Xiu finally opened his eyes, glanced at everyone, and said indifferently, "Let's go, let's deal with Medusa."
The three of them were immediately taken aback.
Yang Xian quickly asked, "Fellow Daoist Fang, didn't you just say you couldn't deal with Medusa? Why are you saying that now...?"
Fang Xiu strode forward, his scarlet robes fluttering in the wind, his calm voice drifting past everyone's ears: "That was just now, this is now."
Everyone stared at his departing figure, their faces filled with astonishment.
Is this the style of behavior of great figures in ancient times? They are indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary gods.
Unbeknownst to them, in the short span of an incense stick's time, Fang Xiu not only refined the three-headed hellhound, but also incidentally mastered the Sun-Swallowing Divine Power, and even combined it with the Maw of the Gluttonous Beast to create a new Devouring Divine Power.
......
......
Led by Fang Xiu, the group left the Wangchuan Domain and traveled through the void until they finally arrived at the Purgatory Demon Domain.
This was a battlefield he had specifically chosen, deliberately manipulating his wife to lure Medusa here.
The battlefield definitely cannot be chosen in the River of Oblivion, as it would easily cause a large number of soul casualties and affect the power of incense offerings and prayers, so it is natural to choose the Demon Realm.
In this infernal realm, there also live many lava monsters, all of whom are the retinue of Cerberus.
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you! Then I'll be the most beautiful woman in the world!"
Before Fang Xiu and the others even got close, they heard Medusa's frantic roar.
It was a vast lava field where two women were locked in a fierce battle. Terrifying torrents of power spread outwards, instantly killing the monsters living within the lava.
Medusa went berserk and started scratching his wife's face, ignoring everything else.
The battle between a dignified late-stage seventh-rank Heavenly Demon God had a somewhat street brawl-like feel to it.
This shows just how jealous Medusa was of his wife's beauty; he was staring intently at her face.
But that's not the strangest thing. The strangest thing is that the wife's attack is also a slap in the face.
Snap snap snap...
