Although he knew that Apep was a proud person and that he was concerned about him, the Great Tree King, and Cole, the two sides were not the same kind of people after all. If Apep wanted to revive the dragon clan, there would definitely be conflicts with the Seven Kingdoms.
As for Apep's operation, it is equivalent to showing Fang Yun the way to a higher realm. Next, as long as the energy is sufficient, Fang Yun can also become "half Nibelung".
"To be honest, I don't like humans. Even though they may not know it, in my eyes, you have indeed occupied the dragon's home." Apep said calmly, "But no matter how dragons and humans get along in the future, our biggest enemy is still the abyss, because Teyvat can't stand it anymore."
The Abyss has coveted Teyvat for a long time, and every invasion has caused indelible damage to Teyvat. Now, even Heaven has no energy left to care about Teyvat anymore.
If another guide comes out at this time and leads the way into the abyss, both humans and ancient dragons will be doomed.
Fang Yun thought for a moment, "So, you want me to work with you to weaken the Abyss?"
"Yes, the abyss essence I can absorb is limited, you are the key." Apep did not hide his shortcomings. "Originally, I went to the rain forest to find you just for this matter. Now that I have an insider, things will go more smoothly."
There was nothing wrong with her plan, but the shadow next to her frowned.
When Ying arrived at the battlefield, Apep had already forced back the Evil Knights, but she was confused by her plan to let Kong go undercover. Now that Fang Yun was involved, she couldn't help but say, "Apep, we haven't agreed to you yet. Why don't you tell us what you want to do first?"
"Can you still refuse? Do you want to be my enemy? Humph, you really overestimate your own abilities."
"If you want to think so, then I can only draw my sword."
Seeing that Apepu spoke so harshly, Ying also got angry. She was not the kind of person who would tolerate it.
The tense atmosphere between the two made the Great Ci Tree King nervous... She had always felt that Apep was very hostile to her and Fang Yun. Seeing that they seemed to be about to fight, she hurriedly discussed the next countermeasures with Fang Yun.
Haruno Ying, with her summoning beast Paimon, stood between Fang Yun and Ying as usual, intending to show Apep how powerful their "Team 7" was.
"Fang Yun, don't worry. I can feel that Apep's current state won't last too long. If a real fight breaks out, we're not without a chance. I've just absorbed so much of the world's essence, and I've already recovered to my full potential."
"Huh? Let's not talk about why we have to fight... Even if you recover, what does it matter? She is now stronger than the four rulers."
Fang Yun suddenly felt something was wrong. He smelled a familiar smell.
Sure enough, the Great Compassionate Tree King gave him another surprise.
"That's right. Actually, I was afraid that you would be angry, so I hid a trick. You also know that grass elemental creatures can gain strength through [Reverse Growth]. Now that I have become your World Tree, I also have this characteristic... As long as you ignite the World Tree, you can enter the [Heavy Particle] mode, and every strike will make Apep burn with me."
The Daci Tree King became more and more excited as she spoke. If Lei Dianying was good at scientific research, then she was good at magic. She had figured out this trick as early as the day she turned into Fang Yun's World Tree.
But as she was speaking, she realized that Fang Yun was silent, and the excitement on her face suddenly stopped.
"Come on, speak up. Why don't you say anything?" Fang Yun was so angry that he laughed. He really didn't expect that the Great Ci Tree King could actually self-destruct after turning into a tailed beast.
"I'll settle the score with you later. Don't even think about getting away this time."
He made a note to the Great Mercy Tree King that he would become Nesabuel.
Then he quickly walked between Ying and Apep and called a halt: "Stop arguing, everyone's goal is the same for now, if we hurt each other it will only benefit the Abyss."
Although Fang Yun meant "Apep, I don't want to hurt you", to Apep it became "this brat Fang Yun said he can kill me at any time", and he immediately became angry.
Thousand Hands Fang Yun!
Fortunately, Fang Yun knew her temper and smoothed her temper down: "I mean, we still have to rely on you, Apep, to be the C. Such quarrels between teammates will hurt the harmony."
"That's more like it." Apep felt much more comfortable after hearing these words. She snorted coldly, and the dragon's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a green-haired lady in a white uniform. Her round and slender legs were wrapped in black stockings, but her face looked stiff.

Even though she had transformed into a human form, she and Lei Dianying still didn't get along very well, and the two looked at each other, then turned their heads and snorted almost in sync.
The Great Ci Tree King couldn't help but complain: "Why do I feel like Apep and Baalzebub are alike?"
She thought that it would be quite a show if these two played together.
Fang Yun shook his head speechlessly. It would be interesting to see Daci Tree King and Ying team up together. Besides, Apep and Ying are actually completely different.
Sure enough, after the initial plan was formulated, Apep was exposed.
"In short, the plan is very simple. We will use the Abyss Cult as our entry point. When they are recognized by the Abyss to carry out their mission, we will go and seize the origin of the world bestowed upon them by the Abyss."
"Isn't this just a scheme to defraud the Abyss of its funding? But this can only be done once, right?"
"Two or three times should be no problem... Don't worry, the Abyss is not like Teyvat where everything is restricted by the [Law of Heaven], and it has never produced a World Tree incarnation like Buyer. Its world consciousness is very rigid. After all, as you have seen, the power of the Abyss is erosion and destruction, and the world itself has no vitality at all."
Fang Yun gladly accepted this. If he could absorb the world's origin from the abyss a few more times, he and the Great Compassion Tree King would be able to make further progress and keep up with Lei Dianying's upgrade speed.
If the harvest is greater and directly helps Fang Yun's mental world to advance, then his Divine Tree Jinchūriki mode may be able to directly reach the Four Kage level.
"Apep, aren't you worried that you can't suppress the threat I pose to the ancient dragon?"
"Humph, for a small fry like you, what good will it do if you strengthen it a few more times?"
Apep snorted with disdain on her face, and for some reason, her trash sounded quite sarcastic.
Fang Yun finally understood that these grass elemental predecessors were more incompetent than the others.
"Don't think too much. Why would I suppress you? How ancient dragons and humans should get along is a question that needs to be considered later, but I think... you won't let me down. If you really misjudged me, then just treat me as blind."
She doesn't believe in humans, but she believes in Fang Yun, who has a trumpet for alien creatures.
Fang Yun, you are both a dragon and a human, do what you think is right.
After Apepu finished speaking, she never mentioned the topic again. She brought Fang Yun and everyone else to a remote area, where there was actually a piece of black silt.
"These are my people. Thousands of years ago, I was tortured by the power of the abyss. They did not abandon me, but tried every possible way to save me. He was one of them... He was worried that if Buyel erased himself, the changes in the World Tree would make them forget how to save me. So he came under the Sky Nail and turned himself into black mud in an attempt to avoid the changes in the World Tree."
Yingdu was somewhat moved as he listened to her introduction: "But this means that he has also endured a thousand years of torture just like you."
"That's right. Although Fang Yun's participation prevented Buyer from destroying himself, it's not the only successful people in this world who are heroes... His plan is perfect, and his awareness is admirable."
Apep squatted down and used the power of the Sky Nail to purify the black mud, injecting his own original power into the emerging mushroom beast.
"This is... the Grass Dragon? You... you have recovered?" Lu Xingyan's original mushroom-shaped mushroom beast excitedly called out to Apep.
"Well, I'm fine now. Come home with me." Apep looked gentle, and sighed with emotion and heartache, taking him into his own world, which was the home of the mushroom beasts.
But before leaving, Apep still taught her the method of using his mental power to completely eliminate the forbidden knowledge in the body of the Great Compassion Tree King. This was what Apep had learned from the forbidden knowledge.
"Apep, what are you doing..." The Great Ci Tree King was stunned. She didn't even have time to ask why this method actually required her and Fang Yun's souls to merge, and required Fang Yun to artificially inject the power of the world into her.
All she heard was Apep's resolute snort.
"Buyer, this is the last time I will help you!"
After he finished speaking, Apep reminded Fang Yun and Ying, "Don't stay here too long. The show that Morax has arranged has already started. You can still catch up if you go out now."
Then, Apep turned and left without looking back.

The Omniscient and Omnipotent: Chapter 32: The Magic Restoration Ceremony
Watching Apep's figure disappear from her sight, Yingmei finally breathed a sigh of relief. This 48-hour continuous BOSS battle, which was as valuable as hell, was finally over.
Flying...Flying object Paimon also had a relieved expression.
Little Paimon patted his chest in fear, then flew to Ying, circled around her and said with emotion: "Traveler, we won, we are the champions!"
Yingmei secretly complained that Paimon was always not good at fighting and was taking credit for being the first place, but she also put her hands on her hips and proudly raised the Rasengan, as if she was performing the MVP settlement animation.
Yes, she just started playing this kind of high-end game when she just learned dual elements, and saved the world together with General Raiden and Uchiha Fangyun. This is a manifestation of strength.
When she and Paimon were fantasizing about holding up the trophy, they were interrupted by Fang Yun.
Fang Yun's eyes swept over the two of them. "What are you two daydreaming about? Didn't you hear what Apep said? Something is going to happen in Liyue Harbor. Go back quickly so you can catch up with one of the main quests."
He felt that Yingmei was still too naive and lacked the charm of a pink fairy lady... Well, her Rasengan was also a lot worse.
However, Kong has entrusted Yingmei to him, so Fang Yun will definitely work hard to develop Yingmei... Sorry, he will help Yingmei develop the Rasengan.
?
His gaze awakened Yingmei, causing her to take two steps back in alarm.
Her nervousness was not without reason. After meeting Kong this time, she no longer had to wander the streets looking for her brother. All she had to do next was travel and complete missions to regain her power. But didn't this mean that she would have to be Fang Yun's secretary forever?
After all, the job of a female secretary is too dangerous. Ying knows very well what comes next after the phrase "If there is something to do, let the secretary do it."
But thinking that she was different from other female secretaries, she did not need to make progress, and did not need to consider taking the promotion platform. At least she was still in a safe period during this period!
and many more.
Why does the description of safe period feel weird?
Yingmei suppressed some of her thoughts and nodded seriously, "Then let's go back to Liyue Harbor first...Since Kong has already explained it to me, I don't have any particular goals to pursue."
She was anxious before mainly because she knew too little information, and she didn't even know whether Kong had escaped. Now she has really relaxed her mentality. She eats when she is hungry and drinks when she is thirsty, just like traveling.
Thinking of this, Ying was actually grateful to Fang Yun for sending her brother-in-law Kong to the ICU. If she went to meet Kong herself, he would definitely leave two riddles and leave as Fang Yun said.
It was Fang Yun's decisive attitude that made her a little scared... She had a hunch that if it was her who joined the abyss, Fang Yun would definitely charge her medical insurance card for arrears.
"Ying, what's with that expression on your face!" Fang Yun frowned. How could he possibly beat Ying into the ICU?
It’s almost time to go to the delivery room!
He exchanged glances with Ying, then turned into a flash of lightning and pulled up Yingmei to fly above the rock abyss.
"By the way, after the general and I go back, we will prepare to set off for Fontaine. What are you going to do next?" he asked during the flight.
"I'll complete a few more tasks, and Liyue should be almost done. Then of course I'll go to Inazuma... You've helped me so much, it's time for me to fulfill my promise." Ying answered without hesitation.
She is a person who knows how to repay kindness, and Fang Yun has a good personal relationship with her. Yingmei now regards herself as Inazuma Ying.
"It's not a big deal actually. I didn't expect Sora to show up like this."
"Yeah, if I had known this would lead to Sora's presence, why would I have posted a missing person notice?"
Not only Fang Yun, Ying also thinks so... She has already mastered the method to make Kong show up. Next time if she wants to find Kong, she can just find an abyss wizard and let him convey that she wants to be Ying's noble person.
Yes, Sister Ying feels that calling her Madam Ying is not of high status, while Noble Lady Ying is much more domineering.
She didn't give in! She was just fantasizing about it! It's not considered depravity for a female knight to fantasize about it, right?
Paimon seemed to have noticed something, but didn't say anything. After all, there was no way an emperor-level beast of burden would hit her.
"Come to think of it, Fang Yun, how come you know Senior Cao Long? Also, how did the Great Compassion Tree King get on you?" Ying suddenly discovered her blind spot. She didn't dare to interrupt the conversation before, but she still heard a lot of news.
And with the end of the battle just now, she felt that she had digested Xumi's god-level mission ahead of time. It turned out that Fang Yun also had a status in Xumi!
But Yingmei will not be frightened by this anymore. The Great Compassion Tree King can be Fang Yun's personal sister. Even if Fang Yun tells her now that the elemental power of the Water God comes from him, Ying will be able to accept it.
Fang Yun briefly explained what happened to Ying and concluded, "Apep's words are just a little harsh, but she is still trustworthy, and we are allies because we have the same goal. As for the Great Compassion Tree King, her strength has also been restored."
It's true that Kong, the transport captain, did deliver the goods in a timely manner. Fang Yun originally just wanted to consume a little bit of the Abyss and never thought that there would be such a gain. No wonder Apep wanted Kong to continue to be an undercover agent.
As long as Kong can continue to show that "I am a newbie, not a match-fixer", it won't be a problem to cheat Abyss of funds a few more times.
This was not just his and Apep's imagination, because everyone from the Nibelungen, the Red King to Kanreya and the Abyss Cult could get support from the Abyss, which showed that the Abyss was quite generous in its investments.
When Lei Dianying heard that the Great Compassion Tree King's strength had recovered, his eyes suddenly lit up: "She has recovered? In that case, let's meet her later."
She has long wanted to torture Buyer. All he does all day is steal towers. How can you steal even the 2nd level?
Fang Yun did not respond immediately. He first asked for the opinion of the Great Compassion Tree King.
Unexpectedly, the Great Compassion Tree King, who originally seemed to be slightly afraid of Ying, suddenly got confidence from somewhere and agreed immediately.
Before meeting Apep, the Great Ci Tree King was indeed ready to surrender, but there is always a way out. Apep even put the dual cultivation secret book in her face. If she still lost, she would be embarrassing the Grass type.
However, she still had some doubts about this... The secret book that Apep gave her was essentially a ritual, and its original purpose was for creatures that were not infected by the abyss to pray to the abyss consciousness in order to obtain the transformation of the abyss, wash away human characteristics, and make both body and soul more in line with the abyss.
This is what is called feeling grace.
After the ritual was adapted, it became a fusion between her and Fang Yun, and then Fang Yun "artificially injected" the origin of the world into her to wash away the pollution in her body and make her become more in line with Fang Yun.
Although Fang Yun will not alienate her mentally, the problem is... her body will become like Fang Yun's shape, and her resistance to him will be greatly reduced.
At that time, wouldn't she be just like that Black Iron Grade Eightfold Son of God, who had to seek rescue from outside the field after being hit twice by an emperor-level beast of burden?
But who could she find to form a team? Apart from Apep, she really didn't know any nurses on Xumi's side.
"Forget it, let's talk about it later."
The Great Compassion Tree King had no choice. At the moment, although she had recovered her combat power to its peak, the abyss pollution in her body would ultimately be a hidden danger if it could not be removed.
Especially since she will be meeting Nacida later, what if Nacida is also infected with the forbidden knowledge?
This purification ritual cannot be used on Nashida!
"But then again, now that my strength has been restored, as long as I purify the pollution, even if Fang Yun goes to Fontaine, I can communicate with Nashida remotely with my consciousness."
"No, I still don't know how to tell Nashida. Why not let Fang Yun try first?"
She felt that Fang Yun and Nashida should be able to get along well.
When Fang Yun and Nashida have established a good relationship, she will appear again to explain the identity of "Uncle Fang" to Nashida. I think Nashida should be able to accept it.
