The old man seemed able to absorb endlessly, at this rate, it would not be impossible for him to directly transform from a Mountain God into a City God.

Considering the number of Divine Treasure fragments needed for the upgrade, Xiao Mu couldn't help but shake his head in secret, feeling that the costs outweighed the benefits.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A yellow Brilliance suddenly appeared from the south, with someone employing the Earth Escape Technique rapidly approaching Xiao Mu and Xu Qianwu.

"It's Fang Ying, Fang Ying is here!"

A delighted look flashed across Xu Qianwu's face; he recognized the person's identity just from the Escape Light, being familiar with Fang Ying.

"It's really Elder Fang Yuan!"

A fleeting look of joy passed over Xiao Mu's face. Now that Fang Ying had arrived, things were going to be much easier. With Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying teaming up, plus himself, the chances of victory against the Curse Gate in battle would greatly increase.

"Let's move closer," Xu Qianwu advised Xiao Mu and took the lead in using the Earth Escape Technique to meet the yellow Escape Light.

Xiao Mu promptly followed.

"Xu Qianwu, is that you?" Fang Ying's voice came through the yellow Escape Light.

"If it's not me, who else could it be, Fang Ying? You're indeed still alive, haha!" Xu Qianwu laughed heartily, using the Earth Escape Technique to its fullest, causing the yellow Escape Light to expand suddenly. Not only that, the old man boasted intentionally, and with a buzz, the Mountain God's Judge Position was revealed, with the golden visage of a Mountain God appearing above his head.

Xu Qianwu, with a Mountain God representation emitting Golden Light like the sun above his head, approached Fang Ying.

"How about that? Fang Ying, my Mountain God Judge Position is powerful, isn't it? Haha! Hahahahaha!"

Xu Qianwu was incredibly proud, laughing aloud as he rushed towards Fang Ying.

The three of them finally converged, their Escape Lights joining together.

Seeing Xiao Mu, Fang Ying, besides being surprised, had a face full of relief, "Xiao Mu, you actually weren't captured by the Curse Gate, that's great, very great!"

"Greetings, Elder Fang!" Xiao Mu greeted Fang Ying.

"And you too!" Fang Ying nodded back at Xiao Mu, then anxiously said, "I came here as soon as I heard the chief's transmission. It's good that none of you are hurt. Let's escape first before we talk."

The trio activated their Earth Escape Technique, their Escape Lights joining as one, and fled in the direction opposite to Fang Ying's arrival.

The Divine Spirits Realm experts in pursuit from the Curse Gate also noticed Fang Ying's arrival, but did not pay much attention. Fang Ying's strength was far from being comparable to that of Xu Qianwu after the Judge Position's repair, meaning her presence or absence made little difference to the Curse Gate and posed no threat.

Seeing Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying escaping, Qu Xuanlang and the others followed in pursuit while cursing, trying to provoke Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying to turn back for battle using reverse psychology. Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying, however, did not fall for it, ignoring the Curse Gate's insults without retort.

"Fang Ying, how about it? My Divine Spirits Judge Position is impressive, isn't it? With my current strength, even facing Divine Spirits, I wouldn't be without a chance in battle."

While fleeing, Xu Qianwu again showcased his Mountain God Judge Position to Fang Ying and boasted with conceit in his voice.

His strength, originally similar to Fang Ying's, had surged dramatically after the restoration of the Judge Position. He was now so strong that not even three Fang Yings combined could match him.

"Impressive!"

After taking a deep look at Xu Qianwu's Divine Spirits Judge Position, Fang Ying was inwardly shocked to the core.

Xu Qianwu's Divine Spirits Judge Position was too strong; just the sheer Divine Power emanating from it put her under immense pressure. Being up close gave her a sense of total suppression.

Her own Judge Position, at the same Realm as Xu Qianwu's, stood no chance against it.

With such qualifications, the Mountain God Judge Position was not just formidable; it could only be described as terrifying.

"Xu Qianwu, how did you repair your Mountain God Judge Position?" Fang Ying asked, her curiosity piqued, still in awe as she looked at Xu Qianwu.

It hadn't been long since she and Xu Qianwu had parted ways, just a matter of days, yet Xu Qianwu's Divine Spirits Judge Position had not only fully recovered but even elevated tremendously, making his personal power extremely terrifying.

"Haha!"

Seeing the look of astonishment on Fang Ying's face, Xu Qianwu couldn't help but burst into triumphant laughter, proudly stating, "I used fragments of Divine Treasures to repair my Divine Spirits Judge Position, impressive, right?"

"Impressive!"

Fang Ying exclaimed in admiration; her surprise intensified as she stared at the Mountain God image above Xu Qianwu's head, saying in amazement, "I remember your Divine Spirits Judge Position was heavily damaged. To repair it to this extent must have required quite a few Divine Treasure fragments, right?"

"Not many, just seven or eight," Xu Qianwu said nonchalantly, the display of proudfulness even more evident on his face.

"Seven or eight!" Fang Ying's mouth fell open involuntarily, her eyes widened, and her breathing became uncontrollably rough, "So many! Xu Qianwu, how did you manage to get so many Divine Treasure fragments?"

Xu Qianwu wore a smug look, not shy to boast, "How about that, surprised, aren't you? When it comes to getting Divine Treasure fragments, isn't that just a word away for Old Xu?"

"Impressive!" Fang Ying was in absolute awe, taking a good while before managing to utter a sentence.

"Elder Xu."

Xiao Mu couldn't stand it anymore and felt compelled to speak out to Xu Qianwu.

So shameless, all those Divine Treasure fragments came from me, didn't they?

"Elder Xu, am I not correct in remembering that all those Divine Treasure fragments came from me?"

"Uh!"

Caught in the act of bragging to Fang Ying, Xu Qianwu's expression stiffened, suddenly frozen on the spot.

Fortunately, thick-skinned as he was, he managed not to blush. Recovering quickly from the momentary shock, he chuckled, "Just a joke, Xiao Xiao, why take it seriously?"

He then said to Fang Ying, "Fang Ying, I was just joking, don't take it to heart. Indeed, all my Divine Treasure fragments were given by Xiao Xiao. If not for him, I wonder when my Divine Spirits Judge Position would have been repaired."
