Infinity, our Zhongzhou team has a bright future.

Chapter 251 Luo Li: ZZ Gaia
In order to eliminate Genova, Gaia even dared to use the tactic of self-destruction. Now, upon hearing Luo Li say that she had come up with a solution, she instantly became anxious.

[A solution?! What solution?!]

"Jenova has poured all his power into Sephiroth, isn't this the perfect opportunity for you to reclaim the Stream of Life!"

Upon hearing this, 'Gaia' was briefly excited, but reality quickly brought it back to its original state, and it once again made a shameful sound.

"But to prevent Genova from getting it, I've already given you the Source of Life. Taking back the Stream of Life now is pointless."

Luo Li felt furious whenever she mentioned the source of life within her body.

Gaia almost choked to death by forcibly stuffing the source of life into its own body. If it weren't for the World Tree's tender shoots helping to absorb some of the burden, it would have exploded.

Suppressing the urge to abandon 'Gaia', Luo Li, who had already touched the trunk of the verdant giant tree, said, "Part of the source of life is in this verdant giant tree, and the roots of the giant tree are spread throughout the entire stream of life. You should know what you should do after you go in, right?"

I understand! Wait for my good news!

A sphere of azure light emerged from Luo Li's chest and plunged into the lush giant tree, disappearing from sight. In its place, the giant tree's branches and leaves became even more luxuriant and vibrant.

Luo Li had no time to carefully sense the changes on the lush giant tree. In the short two or three seconds it took for 'Gaia' to detach from her and enter the lush giant tree, Genova, wearing Saphiroth's skin, had already caught up.

Under Jenova's control, Sephiroth's every attack was aimed at killing Lori, but that alone was not enough.

Although Luo Li's fourth-tier gene lock, temporarily activated by the power of 'Gaia,' is still a fourth-tier gene lock, and ordinary attack methods cannot kill Luo Li.

Moreover, Lori had undergone hellish training under Scáthach, and Sephiroth's martial arts skills were no match for hers. Furthermore, the one using these skills was not Sephiroth himself, but Jenova.

This resulted in Genova launching a powerful attack under Sephiroth's control, only to be countered and suppressed by Luo Li using her martial arts skills.

After being caught off guard and struck by Loli once again, Genova finally realized that his capable henchman Sephiroth was simply not enough to kill Loli and seize the life source that had become one with him.

Therefore, in order to ensure that his years of planning would not be in vain and to seize the source of life that he had been dreaming of, the real body (soul) of Jenova, who had been hiding in the shadows, descended into Sephiroth's body.

Genova's arrival was silent, but Luo Li still sensed something was wrong. From 'Sephiroth', she felt an unprecedented palpitation, as if something unexpected was happening.

The moment he arrived, Genova took perfect control of his new body.

After all, Sephiroth had long since been corrupted into the shape of Jenova, and even when he was conscious, he was unable to resist Jenova, let alone now that he was once again lost in the inner demons that Jenova had carefully constructed for him.

When Genova himself appeared in battle, he was shrouded in his signature black mist and launched an attack in a very reckless manner. Every strike and move he made was completely unpredictable, just like a child venting his power.

However, this reckless fighting style made Luo Li feel restricted in the battle, and she dared not face Genova's attacks unless absolutely necessary.

The reason lies in the black mist surrounding Jenova. When the black mist first appeared, Luo Li didn't pay attention to it, subconsciously thinking that it was just a means for Jenova to strengthen Sephiroth.

But after exchanging blows, Luo Li realized that her previous assumptions were completely wrong. Those seemingly harmless black mists were actually devouring her power. Feeling a portion of her power draining away in ways she couldn't perceive each time she was forced to parry, Luo Li knew that it must be Genova's doing.

As for what the other party did, the four words "Light of the Soul" instantly popped into Luo Li's mind.
Realizing that her power had been inexplicably devoured by the other party's spiritual light, Luo Li instinctively wanted to run away.

After all, there is a world of difference between a fourth-tier being with the Light of the Mind and one without it, not to mention a pseudo-fourth-tier like Luo Li who temporarily unlocks the lock with external force.

It's impossible to win. It's simply impossible to win.
Luo Li was having second thoughts, but 'Gaia' confidently charged forward.

Through its own efforts, 'Gaia' successfully regained control of the life stream using the remaining one-fifth of the life source within the giant green tree, thus reclaiming its body once more.

[It's done! The cycle of the source and flow of life has been restored! Now, you stinking beggar, you'll see the wrath of the planet!]

Although Gaia only has one-fifth of its power left, it has now regained control of its body. With the support of its true form in battle, even with only one-fifth of its power, it still managed to change the color of the heavens and earth.

Under Gaia's control, the life force manifested from the planet's surface, rushing towards Sephiroth like a mighty river.

The scene unfolded so quickly that Luo Li had no time to stop it. Only one thought crossed her mind: her teammate had fed again; they were completely finished.

What happened next was exactly as Luo Li had predicted. 'Gaia' confidently unleashed its power and launched an attack. And then it turned into takeout.

Realizing that Genova was not only not destroyed by his all-out attack, but was instead growing stronger by absorbing his power, Gaia panicked once again.

Wait a minute! Something's not right! Come help me!

"That is the light of the soul! If I were to ascend to it, my power would be devoured. If you don't want to be completely consumed by it, you have no choice but to relinquish that portion of your power!"

Is there really no other way? This is power I've worked so hard to regain; I don't want to give up!

Seeing that even after all this, 'Gaia' was still unwilling to give up, Luo Li bluntly said, "Then you can just wait to die!"

【.】

Unwilling to be devoured by Genova, Gaia cut off the flow of life, barely preserving a small portion of the source of life, while the majority of the rest went into Genova's stomach.

It can be said that from the moment Luo Li entered the Source of Life, 'Gaia' used its own clever tactics to give away nearly two-fifths of the Source of Life.

Before this, Genova hadn't eaten a single bite; he could only scavenge energy from the life forms nurtured by the planets in the Stream of Life, just like Gaia had previously called him—a stinking beggar.

Now, Genova has obtained two-fifths of the life source, which represents the planet's original power, while the remaining three-fifths are currently within Luo Li's body.

Therefore, Luo Li inevitably became Genova's primary target.
