Holding the power of the Mother Goddess in his hands, Zhao Ziqi looked at the two figures fighting on the ground.

The Hand of Flame is immortal and indestructible, and lacking the restraint of divine light, its combat power is astonishing. The Queen has been cornered and is struggling to move forward.

She turned her gaze to Zhao Ziqi and cried out, "Help me!"

"I still don't know how to use this!" Zhao Ziqi suddenly thought of the scene where dozens of vines bent over at the same time.

Clearing his throat, he raised the Mother Goddess's scepter with both hands and said, "I said, save the Queen! Seize the Hand of Flame!"

The emerald seeds emitted wisps of green light, and the withered vines clinging to the wall revived, growing new vines as thick as a thumb. They wrapped around the queen's waist and lifted her up. Dozens of vines then coiled around the hand of fire. The scythe cut off one, then two more appeared; cut off ten, and more appeared!

The cage of vines tightly bound the hand of fire. It struggled, but more vines seeped into the gaps, and the scythe in its hand could not exert any strength.

Zhao Ziqi, holding the Mother Goddess's authority in one hand, stepped down from the ancient vines, his gaze catching sight of the hand of flames.

He said smugly, "Immortal and indestructible, but what's the use of being bound like this?"

Seeing his smug look, the Queen rolled her eyes and sighed softly. This job is really tiring.

Fortunately, the authority of the Mother Goddess has finally been obtained.

The Queen approached Zhao Ziqi and asked, "What do you plan to do next?"

"Of course, we must suppress the evil rift here and seal it completely!" Zhao Ziqi said, holding the emerald seed in one hand. "Mother Goddess, Mother Goddess, seal it completely and imprison the evil rift that is escaping from this place."

The emerald green seed burst forth with a dazzling green light, radiating throughout the entire underground space. The ancient vines slowly twisted and turned, but... the dark red mist emanating from the air became thicker. Soon, the twisting of the ancient vines stopped, and the dark red mist slowly overflowed from the countless fine cracks below.

Zhao Ziqi frowned: "How could this be?"

If I can't seal the evil rift here, I won't be able to pass through the secret realm and leave!

"The erosion here is too deep; even the Mother Goddess's authority cannot suppress it," the Elf Queen shook her head slightly.

"hiss……"

Suddenly, Zhao Ziqi had a brilliant idea!

It's just about planting the Mother Goddess's authority, right? If it doesn't work here, then we can just go somewhere else.

If we move to a place where there is no erosion, the vines growing from the Mother Goddess's authority might be even thicker and stronger. Then, sealing this place off again would be a piece of cake.

"I know what to do! Let's go, let's leave here and plant the Mother Goddess's authority outside!" Zhao Ziqi said excitedly.

The mission is finally about to be completed.

Swish! !

The sound of swords whistling filled the air.

The Elf Queen held a silver sword, its blade pressed against Zhao Ziqi's body. The temperature in the air suddenly dropped a few degrees. Zhao Ziqi was taken aback. What was going on?

"You're actually the mole?" Zhao Ziqi frowned.

Looking back carefully, how could it be that I didn't see anything unusual about her at all?

To be honest, I'm not stupid to begin with, so it's really not right for me to have more intelligence on top of that.

"I am not the mole."

The Elf Queen gently shook her head and said, "Zhao Ziqi, this is a corrupted land of death, a filthy place. Any place corrupted by the abyss is beyond redemption."

I cannot stand by and watch you squander the precious authority of the Mother Goddess in this hopelessly corrupt land! Surrender the authority, and I will return it to you after we leave this place.

"That's it? Then explain properly. Why did you draw your sword?" Zhao Ziqi said speechlessly, "You still don't trust me?"

"Don't move! I'm good at judging people. You're the kind of person with a strong sense of self, and you'll never give up your ideas unless forced by circumstances."

"You have a really good eye for people..."

Zhao Ziqi sighed, and then... whoosh!! A vine wrapped around the Elf Queen's ankle and pulled her sharply. Caught off guard, she was about to fall when more vines wrapped around her, binding her feet and legs, then up her hips and around her hands, finally reaching her chest and stopping there, hanging in front of Zhao Ziqi.

"Let me go... You are blaspheming me, blaspheming the authority of the Mother Goddess...!" The Elf Queen struggled, her cheeks flushed red, and the vines tightened more and more.

"Don't say that. I am a gentleman. How could I possibly disrespect you?"

Zhao Ziqi discovered that without speaking, he could understand simply by conveying the Mother Goddess's authority through his spiritual power. A vine climbed onto the Elf Queen's pretty face and finally... wrapped around her mouth. Her face turned red, her eyes widened, and she let out an angry whimper.

"It's much quieter now. I'll only say this once: are you coming with me, or staying here? Think it through and then nod."

The Elf Queen was furious, her face flushed as she turned her head to the side.

"Then I'll be going. You know... once the Mother Goddess's authority is gone, many terrible things will surely spring up here... Have you thought it through? Goodbye."

"Waaah! Waaah!" Her eyes widened, her chest and hips twisted, and she struggled.

"Alright, now that you have understood the Mother Goddess's true intentions, release her."

The vines that had bound the Elf Queen loosened, revealing obvious marks on her arms, ankles, waist, and hips. She gritted her teeth and glared at Zhao Ziqi.

This is not the Mother Goddess's true intention at all; it's clearly yours! You wretched fellow, doing this will only waste the Mother Goddess's authority.

She stubbornly declared, "Even the Mother Goddess's authority cannot save this polluted land!"

Zhao Ziqi held the Mother Goddess's authority in one hand, and after a moment, he pondered and said.

"The great Mother Goddess has already told me, it is possible."

"You...!" The Elf Queen was speechless, unable to utter a word.

Following behind Zhao Ziqi, they returned the way they came.

As Zhao Ziqi, holding the Mother Goddess's scepter in one hand, left the underground hall, he said, "Get ready to start!"

"Yes!" The Elf Queen nodded seriously.

The next second... crack, crack, the sound of vines breaking apart rang out, bang! Dozens of ancient vines that were entangled together shattered, the erosion fissures at the bottom of the abyss spread wildly, and as the dark purple and dark red mist spread... a piercing sound resounded!

Zhao Ziqi, the Elf Queen glanced back and witnessed a horrifying scene! The erosion fissure tore through space like a demon, ripping apart the ancient vines. It was like an open demon gate, from which countless dark red orbs the size of infants emerged. They floated in the air, leaving trails and emitting sharp, piercing sounds.

Behind the dozen or so dark red orbs, hundreds more surged forth, like a volcanic eruption! They transformed into dark red ghosts, their shrill cries causing the entire temple to tremble violently.

"I'll go!" Zhao Ziqi quickened his pace, and the Elf Queen didn't dare to hesitate for a moment either, quickening her pace as well!

It's too late to set up an escape magic circle now; we can only go down this path to the bitter end!

A sharp, piercing sound is approaching!

Zhao Ziqi raised the Mother Goddess's authority. Under the green glow, the demon statues on both sides of the road looked down at the two of them. A dark red ball of light merged into the demon statue. Its pupils flashed red light, and its stone body... slowly trembled, reviving!

More dark red orbs of light screamed and burrowed into the demon statues. The skull artifacts in their hands glowed with purple light. Some had long tongues that twisted nimbly, while others spread their demon wings and howled! The rift in the abyss below grew more and more terrifying. The ground beneath Zhao Ziqi's feet trembled violently. His heart was about to jump out of his chest. He dared not hesitate for even a moment.

We must escape! There's no turning back now!

Zhao Ziqi gritted his teeth; the only way to survive was to escape this corrupt and evil temple.

The demons are already chasing us!

Some demons have even used their flight advantage to block the way.

These demons each possessed a powerful aura, no weaker than the Flame Demon, and were extremely terrifying!

"Great Mother Goddess, hold them back!" Zhao Ziqi raised the Mother Goddess's authority, and the fist-sized emerald green seed emitted light. Flexible vines sprouted from the walls and the ground, wrapping around the demons' legs, wings, and bodies, binding them to the walls or the ground.

The vines entangled ten demons of different shapes, and a hundred demons roared and chased after them. One demon tore the vines binding its body apart with its sharp claws, spread its broad, bat-like wings and flapped them, its face twisted in madness, and chased after them again.

"The power of the Mother Goddess's authority is almost gone!" The Elf Queen looked ahead at the road ahead, when suddenly... several demons descended from the sky and blocked the intersection.

"We're doing this as a last resort!"

Zhao Ziqi picked up the wondrous Divine Vine Gourd, dripped a drop of spiritual liquid onto the surface of the seed of the Mother Goddess's Authority, and absorbed the drop of spiritual liquid. The slightly dimmed emerald green seed regained its vitality!

"It really works!" Zhao Ziqi exclaimed in surprise.

There are at least two drops of the spiritual liquid still usable in the Divine Vine Gourd!
