March 7th didn't understand why Seele suddenly changed her mind, but Welt's words were also correct; she couldn't interfere with Seele's choice.
Watching the rest of the Express crew leave with Jing Yuan, Seele's hands were tightly clasped in front of her chest.
"Please be careful, Takatsuki."
Seele wanted to stay, not because she was afraid of danger; although she knew facing Phantylia was very dangerous, both Takatsuki and the others on the train had taken good care of her. Seele now felt she had some strength to help everyone.
But just now, she heard the voice of her other self.
After waiting on the platform for a while, Seele finally spoke.
"My other self, where are we going next?"
"Hmph, this is clearly what you want, but you still have to rely on me."
"Go that way; that deer is reacting to something."
Seele nodded and walked in the other direction, following her other self's words.
"Takatsuki… Seele is going to do what only Seele can do."
Below, Takatsuki also seemed to have sensed something, but unfortunately, they had already reached the end of the underwater palace, in front of the Roots of the Ambrosial Arbor, and could no longer see that platform.
Along the way, there were many Vidyadhara eggs, which were the Vidyadhara's shedding state. After Dan Heng unsealed them along the way, everyone stood before a giant dragon head.
And this dragon head was the Roots of the Ambrosial Arbor.
"If Phantylia is here, she must be within the delve where this roots is located."
Jing Yuan stood before the roots, turning back to speak to the others.
Dan Heng looked at the dragon-shaped roots in front of him: "'Kowtowing to the three claws, paying respects to the Ruler' refers to this place. Affected by the Dragon's power, the Ambrosial Arbor has transformed into a dragon-shaped tree gall. Now, I will unseal this final seal."
Dan Heng walked to the Ambrosial Arbor, raised one hand high, and the same light as before burst forth, opening a passage. Inside this passage was the delve where the Ambrosial Arbor was located.
The Luofu used a delve to store the Ambrosial Arbor, so within this delve, there were only countless Ambrosial Arbor branches.
"Hmm, hehe, the visitor… is it the General of the Luofu?"
A female voice suddenly echoed in this delve.
"Ah, this bad guy, she's really waiting for us here! Come out, Phantylia!"
March 7th immediately reacted upon hearing the voice; it was identical to Phantylia's voice when she escaped yesterday.
"Benefactor has also arrived? Don't be hasty, little girl, I haven't finished dressing yet."
Although she said this, the people present had no intention of giving Phantylia time to prepare, and immediately quickened their pace.
Phantylia's voice, however, was unhurried.
"No wonder the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus considers itself superior… this Ambrosial Arbor divine miracle indeed possesses the power of creation and regeneration."
Everyone quickly moved forward and soon saw a flame, held up by something resembling a lotus flower. That flame was Phantylia, whom they had seen last night.
"Everyone, please be careful."
Jing Yuan raised the formation blade in his hand, pointing his Stone-Fire Dream Body directly at Phantylia.
"Dan Heng, I'll leave my back to you."
It was as if he had returned to the past, to the days of fighting alongside his companions. Jing Yuan said this to Dan Heng.
"I understand."
As the General of the Luofu, he could conserve his strength along the way and let others deal with the enemies, but now that they had reached this point, he had to display his courage and responsibility as a General. He dragged his formation blade and slashed towards Phantylia.
"Is the General of the Xianzhou so impatient?"
Yellow-green flames rose, blocking Jing Yuan's formation blade. This power was not the Destruction power Phantylia had used yesterday, but a genuine power of Abundance.
Phantylia, Shendu Ravager and Emanator of Destruction, now displayed a power of Abundance that was no weaker than her power of Destruction. In fact, considering its self-sustaining nature, it might even far surpass her own power of Destruction.
"Since the General is unwilling to wait for this little girl to finish dressing, then this little girl can only hastily take the stage and make a fool of herself."
A giant yet slightly tender hand emerged from the Abundance flames. With just a flick, it sent Jing Yuan's formation blade flying.
"Everyone, do you see this beautiful flesh? The divine miracle of Abundance is truly worthy of its reputation."
A giant woman appeared before everyone, but it seemed her body was hastily formed, with only her upper half present.
"Let me see what I can do with it."
Phantylia gently waved her hand, and a large number of white Abundance Abominations rapidly appeared around her. Each flower was as large as a person. These flowers were not only providing power to Phantylia but also continuously absorbing the surrounding energy, including others' stamina.
"Phantylia has seized the power of the Ambrosial Arbor for her own use… Everyone, do your best to destroy these illusory flowers, and I will break through her physical body."
Jing Yuan's expression hardened. Despite their haste, they were still one step too late. Fortunately, everyone could see that although Phantylia had connected with the Ambrosial Arbor, this connection was unstable, and her body was not fully formed. Perhaps when she fully formed, it would be the day of the Luofu's destruction.
"Such boastful words, daring to wish to destroy this noble body born of the Ambrosial Arbor; in Phantylia's eyes, you all now seem as tiny as ants."
The battle between the Emanators was not something others could interfere with. March 7th and Stelle were also in this situation, so all they could do was continuously destroy the Abundance Abominations to provide support.
But as Phantylia's words fell, she waved the fan in her hand, and a huge gust of wind almost blew several people away.
"What a… what a strong wind."
"Be careful, March!"
Fortunately, Stelle pulled March 7th in time.
The main target of this attack was not March 7th and the others, but Jing Yuan and Takatsuki, who were at the very front.
Seeing this, March 7th realized that what Takatsuki had said earlier was true; this was a battle beyond their dimension's involvement.
The sword in Takatsuki's hand was not used in a dual-wielding style as it was last night, but he held only one sword, the strongest sword he possessed.
Haki, Nen, Magic, Demon Flame, and even Hamon.
All the power Takatsuki possessed was fully poured into it. With every step he took, the Demon Flame erupting around him destroyed the Abundance Abominations that appeared nearby.
"Is it this move again?"
Phantylia looked at Takatsuki rushing towards her. She had a very deep impression of this move that had destroyed one of her avatars yesterday, but today she was completely different from yesterday.
"Divine! Departure!"
Ignoring Phantylia's words, Takatsuki raised the divine sword in his hand and slashed towards Phantylia.
"Today's Phantylia is completely different from yesterday's."
Phantylia 2.0 was full of confidence in her new power, waving her folding fan to block Takatsuki's blade.
