Buduona's expression turned cold, but she didn't dare to resist. She had tried to escape before, but the unknown power in her mind instantly turned into a blade, stabbing her fiercely, causing her unbearable pain and forcing her to return.

The seed of consciousness left by Li Cheng Yi could display a terrifying side at times.

It could directly condense into a Wisdom Sword (Hui Jian), controlling everything about a creature from the depths of its spirit and consciousness.

Immediately, Buduona stepped forward, her body suddenly swelling and enlarging. In the blink of an eye, she changed shape and color, transforming into a green gemstone dragon as tall as the Giant Demigod.

Without a word, not even a roar, she opened her mouth and spewed out a ball of green dragon breath.

Boom!!!

The scorching dragon breath, carrying a power that could crystallize everything, fiercely impacted the surface of the Giant Demigod.

But the dragon breath was blocked by a translucent shield, splashing around like water and turning the surrounding trees and ground into green crystals.

"Foolish!" The Mello Demigod laughed and lunged forward, actually braving the dragon breath, reaching out and grabbing Buduona's neck, lifting her up.

Buduona naturally refused to submit and began to resist.

In the blink of an eye, the two switched to close-quarters combat.

Bang.

Buduona was slammed hard on the ground, most of her body smashed into the earth, dazed and disoriented, limbs flailing wildly as she struggled.

Her dragon tail whipped fiercely at the giant's body time and time again, but only scattered some small pieces of stone.

After the stones flew out, they quickly circled back to the giant's body and returned to their original state.

Li Cheng Yi carefully observed from the side, silently recording everything.

The battle between the two behemoths naturally created a huge commotion, but when Li Cheng Yi came here, he had already casually set up a large-scale death energy array to block the aura and movements.

As long as it didn't exceed a diameter of thirty kilometers around, everything would go unnoticed by the outside world.

The spells of the Death Qi (Si Qi) Church were extremely practical in terms of concealment.

Boom!

Boom!!

Buduona was grabbed by the neck and slammed to the ground again and again.

But she was equally thick-skinned, and the injuries on her body almost instantly healed and disappeared.

That method of recovery was to rapidly crystallize everything around her, absorbing it to replenish her own body.

The two fought for a full ten minutes, neither able to do anything to the other, and the Demigod Mello became impatient.

Releasing his grip, he took a big step back, pulling out a distance of a hundred meters.

He raised his hands and pressed them hard on the ground.

"Ancestral God of Nature, please grant me the power to punish heretics!!" he shouted.

A rumbling sound quickly rose from the ground.

Before Li Cheng Yi could react, he saw Buduona's whole body stiffen, and the smooth scales on her body rapidly began to dim, losing their luster.

She seemed to have weakened a lot.

Boom!!

At that moment, the Mello Demigod took a step forward, charging forward and slamming his shoulder hard into the dragon's chest.

With a muffled sound, Buduona's chest collapsed, and she let out a painful dragon roar, flying backwards.

But before she could fly far, a gleam of golden light lit up in her dragon eyes, and a vortex of green light appeared out of thin air behind the Demigod Mello.

From the vortex, which was more than ten meters in diameter, a hideous tentacle composed of green crystals suddenly emerged.

The tentacle, like a sharp thorn, pierced fiercely into the Demigod's back, piercing through his chest.

'It seems that this should be Buduona's strongest ability.' From that vortex, Li Cheng Yi sensed an extremely strong power fluctuation.

That power carried a divine meaning, but it was filled with a strong aura of greed and an even heavier dragon scent.

He guessed it might be a dragon god.

Roar!!

The Demigod Giant was also seriously injured.

The two big guys were evenly matched and had already fought with real fire.

Seeing this, Li Cheng Yi roughly understood the strength level of the Demigod, stronger than Buduona, but limited.

However, Buduona's strength and body intensity were much higher than when he faced her in the Dragon Prison.

After all, that was her weakest time, and her body and abilities were at their lowest ebb.

After coming out, she went to replenish a lot of food and absorbed a lot of light energy to restore the basic functions of her body.

Watching the two fight, Li Cheng Yi suddenly understood why the strong in this world didn't pay attention to speed.

Looking at these two big guys, their recovery abilities were stronger than each other, and they had no concept of vital points.

Looking at those guys in the Underworld Cult, they were even more immortal monsters.

It was estimated that many other forces were taking this path.

It was said that the strong in the Light Church, even if they died and their ashes were scattered, could be resurrected out of thin air by the Archbishop's Eternal Resurrection Technique.

In this case, no matter how fast you were, unless the relevant restraining methods kept up, it was really useless except for running away.

'Sure enough, experience requires going out and walking around more to understand a lot of principles.' The operation of different worlds had different styles, but they all had their own rationality.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng Yi nodded in satisfaction, looking at Buduona who was being suppressed in front of him.

He raised his hand, and a golden long sword appeared in his palm.

"Enough, Buduona, step back."

"Yes! Be careful, Master. His Demigod talent is a natural body, which has a 90% reduction in the effectiveness of all sharp and blunt attacks! The Mountain Giant bloodline was originally one level lower than our Gemstone Dragon bloodline, but he used his talent to forcibly raise it, and he can even suppress me!"

Buduona struggled and quickly retreated. At this time, one of her front legs had been torn off, and she had fallen into an absolute disadvantage. If she didn't retreat, she was probably planning to escape.

Her dragon claws and fangs were completely ineffective against the opponent, and she could only use spell attacks.

But she only had a few strong spell abilities, so the fight was extremely frustrating.

Mello tore off a large piece of dragon leg meat in his hand, and the human face on his chest looked at Li Cheng Yi warily.

"Who are you!? Human, how can a Gemstone Dragon obey the orders of a mere human?"

"Your strength is not bad." Li Cheng Yi smiled, stepped forward, and approached step by step.

"I heard that you, as a Demigod, can maximize the activation of your body and transform into a Godly Body (Shen Qu). I wonder if I can see it."

"Based on you?" Mello would naturally not activate his Godly Body just because someone said so.

The Godly Body was also a huge burden on him. He could only activate it once every thirty days, and the time was only half a minute.

That was the Demigod's biggest life-saving trump card.

"You don't want to?"

Li Cheng Yi narrowed his eyes.

"Then..."

"How about this?"

In an instant, his figure flashed and disappeared directly in place.

When he reappeared, he was already behind the Mello Demigod, slowly sheathing his sword.

"What trick are you playing?" Mello frowned in confusion, turning to look at him.

But as his body turned, Mello's vision began to change, shaking.

He seemed to be sliding down.

No.!

He suddenly realized.

It wasn't that he was sliding down, but his upper body, along with the human face on his chest, his entire upper body was sliding from right to left, towards the ground.

A thin sword wound, like a crack, had cut him in half diagonally from shoulder to waist.

"You!!!??" Mello was shocked and angry. His Demigod talent, Natural Body, rapidly took effect, trying to pull his upper body back to its original position and restore his body.

The power of the Natural Body could ensure that he first weakened the power of physical attacks by 90%, and then he could extract the vitality of the surrounding earth without limit to restore his injuries.

But what just happened!?

He was actually cut in two by a sword!?

"You are recovering your body." Li Cheng Yi suddenly said.

Mello staggered back to the side, trying to distance himself from the opponent.

But the moment he heard these words, his whole body sank, and the divine fire in his mind instantly dimmed.

Immediately afterwards, the divine fire burst out with a huge resistance, trying to resist the control of the Floral Language (Hua Yu) ability.

One second.

It only lasted one second. The divine fire quickly dimmed, and the flame instantly shrank dozens of times, from a bonfire to the size of a matchstick.

Mello was also severely injured, barely recovering his body, and fell to the side with a crash.

He fell into a state of stiffness, completely controlled by Floral Language.

"You actually resisted me for a second." Li Cheng Yi walked slowly, carrying his sword.

He already roughly knew the limit of this Demigod.

Cutting him was about the same as a Ten Seal (Shi Yin) seal ring, his recovery power far exceeded Ten Seals, but his speed was too slow.

He could be regarded as a seal ring that mainly focused on physical recovery and strength defense, with certain trump cards.

'Next is the God, I need to determine the specific strength of a God.'

'Also, I need more strong people in my hands to arrange around and send out to do things, so...'

Li Cheng Yi thought for a while, his eyes falling on the stiff and motionless Mello Demigod.

'Perhaps, I can try the permanent Floral Language effect of the Power of Persuasion (Shuo Fu Zhi Li)...'

Half an hour later.

Li Cheng Yi and Buduona walked out of the sea of trees one after the other and entered the park, like ordinary tourists.

Behind them, followed a burly figure wrapped in a thick gray cloak.

Li Cheng Yi's eyes were somewhat tired.

Anyone who used the Power of Persuasion of Floral Language hundreds of times in one breath would be exhausted.

This ability to permanently change camps did exist, but the probability was really, very small.

With a probability of a few hundredths, it was really impossible to have hope for it when using it normally.

Fortunately, after this test, he would know not to waste so much energy next time.

It was also because he went to Pan Guang and strengthened his mental power, otherwise, if he had been the old him, he might not have been able to withstand controlling a strong person like a Demigod even a dozen times.

"Master, if you want to find other Demigods, there are no stragglers within the Venus Federation. Most of the others are hidden in the cults, within the Sunlight Council." Buduona was even more respectful to Li Cheng Yi at this time.

After witnessing a Demigod who was stronger than her being brainwashed and becoming one of their own.

The chill in her heart could not be completely removed, she was afraid.

Afraid of the terrifying feeling of being completely controlled, even her mind and consciousness.

A trace of fear continued to flow into Li Cheng Yi's Evil Flower (E Zhi Hua), making him feel more and more pleased.

"Mello, do you know the location of other straggler Demigods?" It was still too early to deal with the group of Gods, but it would be nice to collect enough Demigods to use as subordinates first.

"There is an old opponent of mine near the Fiery Sea, the Blue Sea King Boroduro, from the Deep Sea Giant Octopus clan. He is a little stronger than me and is also a straggler Demigod." Mello now showed intense piety and respect when facing Li Cheng Yi, as if he was his own family, his father and brother. That kind of closeness and respect made Buduona even more terrified.

"Very good, then let's take a trip there. You lead the way." Li Cheng Yi said lightly.

The more he explored, the more he felt that this world was very suitable for him to transform into a base of operations.

As long as he investigated the danger levels of those different linked dead spots, the various different and unique environments would bring about various kinds of mutant flowers.

In this way, it would be much easier for him to absorb Floral Qi (Hua Qi), and he would not need to simulate different environments himself.

Of course, the most important thing was the cost performance.

Anyway, he was going to look for Pan En and his family here, so he might as well build a logistics base that belonged exclusively to him.

And ruling the world required a lot of manpower and subordinates, so...
