A trendous strength surged into the sea of consciousness.
Fang Heng dared not be careless. He imdiately stopped, closed his eyes, and focused his mind to control the power.
As the strength surged through him, the sea of consciousness expanded once again.
It took more than two hours before Fang Heng completed the process, organizing and expanding his sea of consciousness, fully absorbing the soul power that ca from Abe Akaya.
Fang Heng opened his eyes again and checked the ga hint.
After advancing to his complete form, Abe Akaya had completely changed his attributes, forming hell-type power, which, when combined with his original nature-based abilities, resulted in a dual-type ability.
The most significant change was in his adaptability to hell.
Previously, Abe Akaya mainly leveled up by spreading his leaves, absorbing the sun’s power and fusing it to form natural energy, gradually leveling up over ti.
Now, Abe Akaya was able to absorb hell-attribute power as well.
When Abe Akaya entered his complete form, during the ti Fang Heng had closed his eyes to organize his sea of consciousness, Abe Akaya had already rapidly spread through hell, fully occupying floors 21 to 35, and was even able to gradually absorb power from hell to convert it into his own experience points.
It wasn’t until he reached floor 35 that he encountered resistance from many high-tier hell creatures.
Abe Akaya had just leveled up and had not yet fully mastered his power. On top of that, he had to divert a significant portion of his strength to absorb the Demon Core and hell power, so he did not force an assault on floor 35. Instead, he expanded horizontally, securing control over hell floors 21 to 35.
That was already the limit of what Abe Akaya could achieve for now.
Additionally, according to Abe Akaya’s perception, the deeper into hell he went, the stronger the power he could absorb.
As for other skills...
Fang Heng checked Abe Akaya’s description.
[Sacred tree: Abe Akaya.]
[Level: Complete form.]
[Additional skills: Dual Attribute, Absorption, Energy Barrier, Nourishnt.]
Surprisingly, the number of skills had decreased compared to before.
"How do you feel, Abe Akaya?"
Very good.
Abe Akaya transmitted a feeling of joy.
The complete form was Abe Akaya’s true combat state.
According to the emotions conveyed by Abe Akaya, he felt overwhelmingly powerful and eager to test his strength.
After a detailed exchange, Fang Heng learned that most of Abe Akaya’s abilities were no longer presented as formal skills, but rather directly manifested during combat.
In the past, enemies entangled by Abe Akaya’s vines might have been able to break free. But now, after leveling up, Abe Akaya could infuse hell demonic seed energy into his vines, greatly enhancing the effect.
"I see..." Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then, compared to that other power?"
He was referring to the entity that had been continuously absorbing Abe Akaya’s energy.
Abe Akaya imdiately sent back a response.
After the advancent, Abe Akaya was now able to trace back the source of the power absorbing his energy. He could locate the enemy and even felt confident enough to try to break free from it.
But he wasn’t sure if he would succeed.
"Hmm, no rush. Hold steady, slow down the energy absorption rate, and don’t let them notice anything unusual for now."
The source absorbing Abe Akaya’s strength was likely the elves.
Fang Heng thought to himself that there was no need to rush into action. He had to use this opportunity to locate the elves and find the missing Cleriway.
The elves dared to target him—he had to make them pay the price.
As for the other scattered demonic seeds, Fang Heng wasn’t concerned. If anyone tried to take back the demon core, they’d likely be killed and absorbed by Abe Akaya.
Fang Heng decided to leave Abe Akaya behind for now and began heading back upward.
Floor nineteen.
The Holy Court team had just retreated to the nineteenth floor.
The last battle had been grueling.
That terrifying plant entity at the end left everyone traumatized.
Only when they retreated to floor 19 did they finally escape the vine coverage, and Dean could breathe a little easier.
The group began to recover slightly.
Dean was now very worried about Fang Heng. He thought, if Fang Heng didn’t show up soon, he’d go into the depths of hell alone to find him.
But no matter what, the Holy Court team could not continue any further.
If the hell plants moved, he couldn’t protect all the Holy Court soldiers by himself.
"Fang Bai the Great Sage!"
Dean was still thinking when he heard the shouts from the Holy Court mbers nearby and suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.
He looked up in the direction of their gaze and saw Fang Heng returning from the passage below, and finally felt a wave of relief.
At last!
The heavy burden in his heart was finally lifted.
As long as Fang Bai was safe, they could now retreat safely with the full team.
Dean wasn’t sure what had happened down there, but he had a gut feeling that the strange hell plants were connected to Fang Heng.
He needed to ask what exactly had happened down below.
As Fang Heng approached, Dean suddenly realized sothing. The words he was about to say got stuck in his throat. His eyes were locked on Fang Heng, his face full of disbelief.
What!
Between Fang Heng’s eyebrows—
The imprint that symbolized the Will of the Twelve Sages!
"F-Fang Bai the Great Sage, you just..."
"Mm, thanks to your help, Great Sage Dean."
Fang Heng raised his hand, signaling the Holy Court mbers who were bowing to stand up. He nodded and said, "I’m fine. Essekelina was powerful. It took so ti to deal with her. I’m just glad everyone is okay."
"Ah, that..."
Dean opened his mouth.
But that wasn’t what he wanted to ask.
Then, when he heard that Fang Heng had taken down the Jealousy demonic seed, he froze again.
Dean asked, "What did you say just now? You eliminated the Jealousy demonic seed?"
"Yeah, it took a lot of effort, and a bit of luck too."
Fang Heng said, "But the demonic seeds can resurrect infinitely. So it’s more like a temporary solution. It will co back."
Dean fell silent, staring at Fang Heng with astonished eyes.
Luck? Was it just luck?
This guy must have co prepared!
The Holy Court had so knowledge of what had been going on in hell.
The demonic seeds had been fighting among themselves. The Jealousy demonic seed had used so kind of ritual to absorb the strength of other demonic seeds, greatly boosting its power.
Among all the demonic seeds, the Jealousy seed—Essekelina—had been the strongest!
And yet, she had been killed by Fang Heng?
No wonder Fang Heng had managed to condense the will of the Twelve Sages.
Dean suddenly understood Fang Heng’s motivation on this trip. As he looked at him again, his eyes were filled with admiration.
Co to think of it, divine punishnt powers were perfectly suited for this kind of targeted assassination mission.
Dean sighed inwardly.
They, a few old hotown buddies, had spent so many years in the Holy Realm, their fighting spirit completely used up, yet they still hadn’t completed the condensation of the initial Will. In contrast, Fang Bai, the newly promoted Great Sage, was fearless and reckless, still full of that boldness.
Wasn’t this exactly how one succeeded by pushing through?
