So, i just inserted the token in elgemol statue and went to city of tears without defeating the lords. Is there anyway to i go back to fungal wastes without having to play the game all over again?

[NG75]

You will be able to get back don't worry, may take you a bit of time to get back to fungal wastes but you can :)

So i just have to keep advancing?

I don't want to say much because it will be spoilers, but you will be able to get back out a few ways depending on how much you advance through, you may fight a boss, you may find a stag station. The game actually becomes more open at this point.

so its all nice right?

You are doing just what you're supposed to do. Tiso even said in the Mantis Village that before fighting the Mantis Lords it would be much better to upgrade your weapon first at the Nailmaster. And to find the Nailmaster you have to enter City of Tears first.
Generally Mantis Lords are rather more mid-near-end-game bosses, so don't worry about it. Keep exploring and have fun :)

You don't have to fight them at all if you don't want to, it's optional, but you will miss out on a charm and you have to find a different way into Deep Nest

I love fighting them right away and get a lot of Deep Nest done before ever going to City of Tears

i did the same, and i don't regret it. The fight was so much easier going back to it after getting more upgrades :D

Yeah I didn't know that I could go to city of tears on my first play through and I did almost all I could of deepnest and got so frustrated because my nail wasn't upgraded either but fighting Mantis Lords on the non-upgraded Nail was quite fun

so what i ended up doing was upgrade the nail and then find the stag so i could get back and defeat them being that i also could go to city off tears again after that.
