Chapter 200 Picking Flowers
The top of the Zhongmi Hall.
Looking at the shattered and collapsed jade tablet before him, Donglin Zhenjun's face turned pale, and his whole body trembled. His legs went weak, and he could no longer stand, collapsing to his knees on the ground: "No, no..."
Nan Dou Zhenjun, who followed closely behind, was also greatly surprised to see this.
He held the golden pillar, shook his head and pressed his hand to his forehead. Even if the sky were to fall, it wouldn't be as despairing as this: "The God... in the end, he still had mortal desires?"
Everything was fine yesterday, how could it suddenly turn out like this?
No wonder he suddenly came out of seclusion; it was all because of that human.
What happened in such a short time that could cause such a drastic change in the God's state of mind?
"Damn it! That untrustworthy man has completely forgotten what he promised me."
Donglin Zhenjun helped himself to his feet, his old face dark and grim, unable to suppress his killing intent: "Nan Dou, you have seen it this time, this human must not be allowed to live."
"Let's go together, and no matter what, we must make the God realize that this is a scourge!"
Nan Dou Zhenjun frowned, his chest heaving deeply, and nodded heavily without saying another word.
……
Sea of Bound Spirits.
Guan Xun flashed and appeared on the island next to the Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower. His spiritual power was wrapped around him. With a wave of his hand, he blasted straight down at the barrier!
A loud, muffled thunderclap was heard, and the surrounding tender green grass was instantly pressed flat to the ground by the burst of energy.
The barrier, which already had cracks, could not withstand the bombardment and shattered into pieces, dissipating into the air.
This commotion caused the spirit beasts to pop up and gather around to watch.
Guan Xun disregarded everything else and immediately reached out to pick the flower. It felt soft to the touch, like a thick, silky ribbon. However, when she gripped it tightly and tried to pull it up, she found that she couldn't budge it at all.
Every time I pull hard, it slips out.
Yes, I remember Chi Rong once said that this flower cannot be pulled out.
Her thoughts raced, and she quickly conjured a small shovel. She bent down and began digging directly from the soil around its roots.
Perhaps feeling that the speed was too slow, it conjured up another small shovel and used both shovels at the same time.
Soon, the soil loosened, and the Tianying Cicada Flower began to tilt.
It really works!
Guan Xun casually tossed aside the small shovel and directly dug into the loose soil with his hands, easily pulling the entire plant out with a little force.
She was secretly delighted. This was the Imperial Tutor's companion flower. If what he said was true, that the companion flower and the person influence each other, then what she held in her hand could be considered its lifeline.
She couldn't bear to destroy such a spiritual object. If she could absorb it and cultivate, her cultivation level would definitely increase greatly, and she might even reach an unimaginable realm.
Besides, this thing absorbed so much of her blood, so it should rightfully be hers too. It would be a shame to destroy it.
Unless absolutely necessary, for the Imperial Tutor, refining it for his own use is no different from destroying it, as both would result in the loss of his life.
However, before the joy could even well up in his eyes, he noticed someone rapidly approaching.
Guan Xun looked up abruptly and saw Shuang'er standing on the spirit beast's head, staring at her in terror—or rather, at the Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower in her hand.
Seemingly unable to believe their eyes, they froze in place in shock.
"Young, young master, you, you!" she cried out, pointing tremblingly at him.
From a young age, the Cangkun were told that this was something they had to protect for all eternity, so they naturally knew how important the Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower was. But now, it had been forcibly dug out by someone.
Shuang'er was naturally alarmed. She instinctively took a step back and immediately transformed into her true form, wanting to go up to the Ninth Heaven to report the news.
Just as it took shape, it suddenly felt the surrounding air freeze.
Its massive body was unable to move, and before it could even figure out what was happening, it was struck hard on the back!
The powerful force struck its back, and with a crack, the bone broke in the middle.
It roared in agony, its body plummeting as it crashed heavily onto the water's surface, sending the seawater surging high like a tsunami.
When it crashed down again, it nearly knocked out all the spirit beasts within a hundred miles.
Before it could even catch its breath, the scorching heat burned its back, then it pierced deep into its body, pulling out its beast core!
Shuang'er trembled all over in pain and was unable to make a sound. She only knew that her blood was flowing like a spring.
The blood stained the deep sea, causing the eyes of the surrounding spirit beasts to turn blood red. They leaped wildly and attacked Guan Xun, who was standing on Shuang'er's back.
Before the red light in Guan Xun's eyes had completely faded, he leaped and stepped onto the sea. The moment he landed, a chill spread, and the entire sea surface was quickly covered with a thick layer of ice.
Even the spirit beasts that leaped high were frozen stiff and fell back down due to weightlessness.
After carefully storing the beast core, she immediately turned and sped towards the barrier.
Time was of the essence, and she could not afford to delay.
But just as she stepped into the barrier, several furious roars came down from the dark clouds, the force of which made her stagger and almost fall back onto the ice.
The surrounding air was turbulent, and even the ice on the sea surface was breaking apart.
Such an aura... without a doubt, belongs to several True Lords.
Her expression hardened, she gripped the Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower tightly in her hand, and without looking back, she dashed into the snowy region.
The people of the Nine Heavens will surely follow closely. Based on the Imperial Tutor's calculations, her Cursed Imprisonment can only hold him for half an hour at most.
However, this half hour is still uncertain; she needs to be faster than planned to have any chance of leaving this awful place.
Fortunately, through regular training, I had roughly figured out the route through the snowy region. As long as I followed the markings, I could return to the place where I had just stepped out of the void from the snowy region.
Since someone could get lost there simply by walking, even with their spiritual power and consciousness imprisoned, it means the exit shouldn't be too far away.
Even if she can't find it, she can try to break through the entrance to the void.
Guan Xun flapped her wings and flew rapidly. Seeing the faint flames rising from the snow, her heart tightened, and she immediately flew towards the marks that were not far apart.
She had to leave this place before the Imperial Tutor appeared. The Calamity Imprisonment would consume a lot of her spiritual power, and even if she could use it a second time, she would not have the chance to let the other party relax and make a move.
Suddenly, she felt a chill in her hand, looked down, and was immediately astonished.
The once vibrant Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower was now withering and drooping to the side, its eerie light growing dimmer and dimmer, and its petals slowly dissipating into the air as it turned into wisps of mist.
"How could this be!" Guan Xun exclaimed in shock. Seeing the thing she had nurtured with her own blood in this state, she could hardly remain calm.
The green spiritual energy immediately surged forth and continuously flowed upwards, enveloping the entire flower plant.
The ultimate technique of the Green Wood Manual is called Endless Life, which can revive inanimate objects and bring withered things back to life, even the dead.
However, it had no effect whatsoever on the Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower. Even when spiritual energy was channeled into it, it was to no avail, and the flower continued to dissipate...
Therefore, there is only one possibility.
It cannot leave the bound spirit sea, nor can it move even an inch of soil, otherwise, as a companion creature, it will be carefully hidden away.
Having figured it out, Guan Xun couldn't help but feel a little anxious. What should he do?
She thought and thought but couldn't come up with a solution. Finally, she gritted her teeth, picked up the flower, shook off the soil underneath, and stuffed it into her mouth.
We can't stop refining and absorbing it right now, nor can we just throw it away. This is the only way.
There's no better way. Anyway, Chi Rong has already swallowed it. We can refine the energy in our bodies after we leave the snowy region.
The Heavenly Infant Cicada Flower melts instantly upon entering the mouth, its cool sensation flowing down the throat until it completely dissipates without any noticeable discomfort.
Guan Xun breathed a sigh of relief, and the green mist covering him also dissipated.
Only with undivided attention can she travel at full speed.
