With the gift of the Pantheon, and the power of the Aeons to completely suppress the negative effects of Abundance, Phantylia successfully overcame the Mara-Struck and was able to control her own body with her own will.
Thus, the situation between the two sides changed once again.
"Hahaha! The experiment was a success! I am now at my peak!"
Feeling the vigorous power within her body, Phantylia was ecstatic.
A body that could overcome the Mara-Struck was unique in this world. With this power, she could walk sideways even among the Lord Ravagers.
"Yes, the experiment was a success."
Looking at her extremely joyful appearance, Jibril shook her head, her expression a little pitiful.
"So, you should die too!"
After success, it was natural to destroy the experimental product.
After successfully overcoming the Mara-Struck, Phantylia was useless.
"What?!"
At this moment, Phantylia finally realized that something was wrong.
Before, with the power of the Ambrosial Arbor and as an Emanator of Destruction, she was confident that she could fight Jing Yuan and Jibril at the same time.
As long as the time was dragged out long enough, she might be able to fight two against one and defeat two Emanator-level existences at the same time.
However, after seeing the Pantheon Su Mo used with her own eyes and personally experiencing his power, she no longer dared to hold such confidence.
Even without Jing Yuan and Jibril, Su Mo alone was an enemy she could never deal with.
The immortality of Abundance was certainly terrifying, but the Su Mo before her was not without a way to counter it.
Just as he had used a seed of Nihility to reverse-activate the power of other Aeons...
If Su Mo was willing, he could even borrow the power of an Emanator of Nihility.
And that power was enough to destroy the immortality of the Ambrosial Arbor.
Realizing this, Phantylia's expression became stiff.
Her gaze towards Su Mo was also a little fearful, as if she were seeing the Aeon of Destruction who had given her power.
After a few seconds of silence, she spoke a little awkwardly, "Hmph! Can we reconcile?"
Hearing this, Jibril showed a brilliant smile.
"What do you think?"
Then, without waiting for Phantylia's answer, she raised a single hand, and the blessing Su Mo had given her shone brightly.
In the next second, the entire Flügel legion appeared behind her. The Staronian Flügels, led by Azriel, surrounded Jibril like they had once surrounded the main god.
"All Flügels, obey Lord Jibril's command! Entrust all your power to the master, meow!"
Azriel quickly understood the situation and gave the order to the Flügel girls.
Like cold killing machines, the Flügel girls raised their hands, pushed the power in their bodies to the extreme, and finally condensed it in the form of a Heavenly Smite.
The majestic torrent of energy formed a dazzling vortex of light.
After suppressing the Imaginary Energy to the extreme, it formed a cluster of rays like a spear of light.
Feeling the power that erupted from the Flügels' bodies, which was enough to easily destroy a planet, Fu Xuan's eyes went straight.
"How is it possible? If my reading is correct, the core of the energy drive in the bodies of these one thousand Flügels are all Stellarons..."
"That's right." Su Mo nodded slightly.
The information revealed in his words made even Jing Yuan, an Emanator of the Hunt, cough a few times, his face filled with disbelief.
"In other words, in front of us are more than a thousand Stellarons?"
Even an Emanator-level existence would feel despair when seeing this number of Stellarons.
Although the strength of these Flügels was obviously not as good as Jibril's, their combined strength was very considerable.
Not to mention anything else, if it were Jing Yuan himself, he felt that even if he used all his strength, he might not be able to defeat a hundred-man squad of the Flügels.
The scale of a hundred Stellarons was already enough to defeat an Emanator-level existence.
As for the scale of a thousand Stellarons, if they all exploded at once, they could even destroy a thousand small worlds.
Although this level of power could not be compared to an Aeon, it was far above an Emanator.
At least, Phantylia, who held the divine power of both Destruction and Abundance, as well as the blessings of other Paths, was not a match for the Flügel legion before her.
Therefore, the result of the battle was naturally not surprising.
"This is the complete version of Godly Smite!"
With Jibril's declaration, the Godly Smite, which had gathered the power of a thousand stars, was shot out.
The vast energy directly smashed through the Scalegorge Waterscape, venting its excess power into the outer universe. The galaxies along the way were all destroyed.
As for Phantylia, she only felt a sharp brilliant light flash by, and then her own consciousness was directly stripped from the body of the Ambrosial Arbor.
The spiritual body of the Heliobus was shattered into tens of thousands of fireflies by the light of the Godly Smite, forming various small Heliobus.
And the body of the Ambrosial Arbor, as well as the seed of Nihility that had been perfectly tuned by Ruan Mei, were left intact in the core of the Ambrosial Arbor.
In the instant before her consciousness fell into darkness, Phantylia, who once again faced Jibril's Godly Smite, finally noticed that something was wrong.
Having experienced the infusion of Su Mo's various Aeon powers, she was extremely certain of one fact.
"This is not the power of the Path of Destruction at all!"
Unfortunately, before she could say it, her consciousness was shattered, and she completely fell into a slumber.
At this point, Lord Ravager Phantylia was defeated, and the Xianzhou crisis was completely resolved.
On the battlefield, looking at the huge hole in the sky of the Scalegorge Waterscape that led directly to the outer universe, Jing Yuan held his forehead slightly.
"I wonder if it can be repaired. Fortunately, the Scalegorge Waterscape was not destroyed. The Vidyadhara High Elders shouldn't be too angry, right?"
Looking at the fireflies dancing in the sky, all of which were Heliobus split from Phantylia, Fu Xuan took out a device she had prepared long ago and began to capture them one by one.
"Since it's Lord Su Mo's spoils of war, and an Emanator of the Aeon of Destruction, it's too much of a waste to use them for power generation. After I... ahem! After I've collected all these Heliobus fragments and pieced them together into Phantylia's form, I'll return them to Lord Su Mo. It's not impossible to use them as experimental subjects!"
Fu Xuan's attitude was extremely attentive, and her address to Su Mo had also changed to a more respectful one.
Let alone her being just a small Master Diviner, even if that old geezer Jing Yuan retired and she succeeded to the position of general, she would still have to use honorifics with Su Mo.
For an existence that could solve the problem of the Mara-Struck, this was the most basic respect and courtesy.
"By the way, Fu Xuan! Since Lord Su Mo has already solved the problem of the Mara-Struck, doesn't that mean Jing Yuan can continue to serve as the general of the Luofu? How are you going to get promoted to general in the future?"
"?"
Hearing this, Fu Xuan was slightly taken aback, her expression immediately becoming dazed.
That's right!
Originally, Jing Yuan was already getting old and was about to fall into the Mara-Struck state, which was why she felt she had a chance to succeed as general.
Now that the problem of the Mara-Struck had been solved, the lifespan of the Xianzhou people would surely be greatly increased.
If so, wouldn't her succession to the generalship be a long way off?
No matter how you looked at it, that old geezer Jing Yuan could last a long time without the Mara-Struck.
Thinking of this, she suddenly stopped what she was doing and looked at Su Mo with a serious expression.
"Lord Su Mo, I have an impertinent request. Could you please wait until Jing Yuan steps down as general before you promote the method to solve the Mara-Struck?"
If so, she could catch this wave of age bonus.
Perhaps, she could be a general for two or three thousand years. Wouldn't that be great?
"?"
Hearing Fu Xuan's words, a question mark appeared above Jing Yuan's head.
Was it really okay to say this in front of him? She was so eager to usurp him!
Before he could speak to stop her, he heard Su Mo's answer.
"No."
Hearing this, Jing Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn't that he was clinging to his position, but that Fu Xuan was clearly still too young to bear the responsibility of a general.
"Is that so? I'm sorry, I was being presumptuous."
Fu Xuan did not feel any dissatisfaction with this answer.
She knew that solving the problem of the Mara-Struck would not be that simple. Even if they had obtained the data from Phantylia and had a solution, it would take at least a hundred or even a thousand years to benefit the entire Xianzhou.
She was still too hasty.
Thinking of this, she spoke again.
"Lord Su Mo, in promoting the treatment of the Mara-Struck, our Xianzhou is willing to provide all available resources. Please don't worry about this! Whether it's time or resources, our Xianzhou Alliance will do its best!"
Since there were already results and a direction, they just needed to expand it with all their might.
For the Xianzhou, this was a plan worth spending a thousand or even ten thousand years to execute.
However, to Fu Xuan's expressed determination, Su Mo just shook his head.
"Time? Resources? None of those are needed."
"What do you mean?"
Fu Xuan immediately became nervous.
"Could it be that Phantylia's case cannot be replicated? Or is it that the resources involved are too precious and can only serve a few people?"
Either way, it was a great regret.
"No, it's neither."
Su Mo shook his head.
"Then what do you mean?"
"I mean, curing the Mara-Struck can be done now."
In an extremely calm tone, saying words that made both Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan's brains overload for a moment, Su Mo turned his gaze to Ruan Mei.
"Pandora's consciousness has been stripped away, but the hope in the box is still there."
"Understood."
Ruan Mei nodded and activated the power of the Catalogue of Life, reactivating the Ambrosial Arbor from which Phantylia's consciousness had been successfully stripped.
Then, according to the data recorded by the Ex-Machina, she threw nine Stellarons into the core of the seed of Nihility, using the power of the Stellarons to rewrite the core structure of the Ambrosial Arbor.
Under her interference, the Ambrosial Arbor changed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
From a straight and tall giant tree, it catalytically grew into a huge world tree with lush branches and leaves, its branches even enough to cover the entire Xianzhou.
Under the effect of the power of Abundance, golden fruits gradually condensed on the branches of the world tree. The massive golden fruits were shaped like peaches, reflecting the sky of the Luofu in gold.
The world tree swayed as if it had a will of its own, no longer a miracle of Abundance, but a child created by Su Mo and Ruan Mei together.
Ruan Mei patted the roots of the world tree, and the massive golden peaches burst open at the same instant, turning into golden juice and mist that poured down.
Golden rain suddenly fell all over the Xianzhou Luofu. These raindrops seeped through the skin into the internal organs, and in the form of seeds, rewrote the life blueprint of everyone.
