The Udumbara Flower.
Upon hearing these words, even Chen Xi couldn't help but reveal an astonished expression.
He really didn't expect that the Udumbara Flower would exist on Earth.
The words of the Udumbara Flower were auspicious.
It only appeared once every three thousand years and was a heavenly flower that didn't exist in this world.
But in reality, the Udumbara Flower's seedlings weren't very rare. What was truly rare was its three-thousand-year flowering period.
A whole three thousand years!
One had to know that with Chen Xi's current cultivation, he could barely live for two thousand years. But this Udumbara Flower needed three thousand years of cultivation before it could fully mature and bloom.
Just based on this growth period alone, it was destined that this strange flower would have extraordinary effects.
According to the rumors in the pugilistic world …
Even if an ordinary person consumed this flower, he or she would be able to become an immortal and ascend to the heavens. He or she would immediately live as long as the heavens and the earth and be as old as the sun and moon.
Of course, this was just an unreliable rumor.
When Chen Xi was in the Heavenly Spiral Continent, he had heard that a mature Udumbara Flower had appeared in the north.
During that time, countless immortal cultivators rushed to the north almost every day in an attempt to obtain this flower.
This flower was like a food shortage on an isolated island. Naturally, it would attract the attention of countless wild beasts.
But …
There was only one Udumbara Flower, but tens of thousands of immortal cultivators had participated in the fight for it. Naturally, a bloodbath had begun because of this. Countless people had paid the price with their lives. More than half of the north had become a living hell, a furnace of flesh and blood.
So much so that even after this incident had died down, the words "Udumbara Flower" could still cause people's expressions to change.
With Chen Xi's personality, he naturally didn't want to participate in this kind of fight. But this didn't mean that he wasn't interested in the Udumbara Flower.
If the ancient records were correct, this flower was a rare treasure. It had the miraculous effect of nourishing one's Golden Core and nourishing one's soul. If an ordinary person consumed it, they could even complete a transformation in an extremely short amount of time and condense a Golden Core.
What kind of concept was this?
A Golden Core!
A lifespan of five hundred years!
If an ordinary person could directly advance to a Golden Core after consuming it, how powerful would its effects be if it was used as medicine, refined, and then given to immortal cultivators to immortal cultivators to consume?
When he thought of this, Chen Xi suddenly felt a sense of excitement.
However …
However, this feeling was not for himself, but for Qin Ruoying, who was still lying in bed.
After all, as a qualified husband, he could only use the iPhone 8 that his wife had exchanged for if she had switched to the iPhone X.
The logic was that simple.
Chen Xi had even made up his mind. Even if he had to turn hostile and snatch the Udumbara Flower, he was going to snatch it back!
Ginseng flowers nourish the body, blood thorns nourish the mind, and the Udumbara Flower …
Although Chen Xi's alchemy skills could not be considered top-notch, he should be able to use these three precious herbs to concoct a cauldron of ten complete tonics.
Yingying would eat the meat and he would drink the soup. Wouldn't that be perfect?
Perhaps he could even use this opportunity to heal the internal injuries in his body and rule over this world in his peak state!
By then …
He only needed to stand in front of the Heavenly Gate and see if anyone could come out of the Great World.
…
Chen Xi pondered silently.
Although he really wanted to obtain this Udumbara Flower, he did not let his guard down because of this.
As the saying went, one who was unaccountably solicitous was hiding evil intentions.
The old man's motives were indeed very suspicious.
Why did he have to give this Udumbara Flower to him for no reason?
Chen Xi could not figure it out.
The Jiang Clan members probably could not figure it out either.
But now was not the time to delve into this question, so Chen Xi could only put this question aside for the time being and wait for the Jiang Clan's final statement.
Although the old man had already formed Yingying, after losing his physical body, he was more like a mascot and did not have any substantial deterrence. So Chen Xi did not have much hope.
Didn't he see that the group of people opposite him looked like they wanted to eat him alive?
The watermelon that they had raised for a year had been stolen just like that. No one would be able to accept that, right?
If a fight had to break out …
For the sake of the old man, Chen Xi could be merciful and guarantee that he would not harm anyone's life.
Chen Xi was prepared to fight, but the development of the situation was somewhat beyond his expectations …
After hearing the old man's order to deal with them according to the clan rules, the originally restless crowd instantly quieted down.
Everyone glared angrily at Chen Xi, but no one dared to stand out and question the old man's decision.
From this, it could be seen how high the old man's position in the Jiang Clan was.
"Yuankui, go."
After the old man spoke for the third time, no matter how unwilling Jiang Yuankui was, he could only sigh helplessly in the end. Then, he bowed and replied, "Yuankui accepts the order. Old Ancestor, please wait for a moment …"
After he finished speaking, Jiang Yuankui flicked his sleeves and left with an indignant expression.
He was the current clan leader of the Jiang Clan and was the Old Ancestor's direct descendant. So, Jiang Yuankui had always thought that the Old Ancestor was biased towards him.
It was laughable that he had been constantly fighting with Jiang Zhengqing in the open and in the shadows all these years. Who would have thought that in the end, he had made a wedding dress for someone else?
How could Jiang Yuankui not be angry?
But although he was angry, he still had to listen to the Old Ancestor's orders.
The seal was on the stone platform on the other side of the lake.
Through the clan leader's imprint, Jiang Yuankui quickly opened the seal and saw the full appearance of the Udumbara Flower with his own eyes.
This was a plant that had never appeared on Earth before.
If he really had to describe it, its appearance was somewhat like a Yingge Pineapple. Its leaves were like fans and its entire body was sparkling and translucent. It was as if it was made of crystal and its fine hair could be seen.
As soon as the seal was opened, a refreshing fragrance wafted out with the breeze.
Jiang Yuankui only took a breath and felt his entire body relax, as if he had an inexhaustible energy.
The flower was a strange flower, but it was as weak as a roadside rose.
Jiang Yuankui only used a little force and plucked this strange flower that people yearned for day and night.
It was unknown if it was because the desire in his heart was too strong, but after Jiang Yuankui plucked the Udumbara Flower, he forgot himself and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff it.
As the eldest son of the direct descendant, Jiang Fengyan naturally had to stay by Jiang Yuankui's side.
At this moment, he saw that Jiang Yuankui was in a daze after receiving the flower, so he could not help but remind him, "Father, the seal is not closed yet. Why don't I take it …"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuankui seemed to wake up from a dream. He looked at the pavilion in the middle of the lake with a flustered expression, then said in a slightly embarrassed manner, "Ahem … Go, I'll close the seal. You go and present this flower to Mr. Chen."
After he finished speaking, Jiang Yuankui carefully handed the Udumbara Flower to Jiang Fengyan.
At this moment, the father and son's expressions were like torchbearers passing the Olympic flame. They looked exceptionally serious.
However.
The next moment …
Something unexpected happened!
After Jiang Fengyan received the Udumbara Flower, he seemed to have gone crazy. He took off running in the opposite direction.
This unexpected change stunned Jiang Yuankui for a moment.
By the time he came back to his senses, Jiang Fengyan had already run nearly a hundred meters away. He must have used all his strength.
"Fengyan?!"
"What are you doing?!!!"
"Hurry up and get back here!"
Jiang Fengyan was only one step away from becoming a diviner. Running at full speed, his speed was naturally extremely fast.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuankui could not help but feel anxious.
Just as he was about to chase after him, he heard Jiang Fengyan roar without turning his head, "Father!"
"Why should you give this flower to an outsider?!"
"The Elder Ancestor is unjust!"
"I don't accept this!!!"
At this moment, Jiang Fengyan was like a child who had been wronged. After being scolded by an adult, he wanted to escape from this place as far as possible.
However …
Among the people present, the person with the lowest cultivation was a diviner. How could he tolerate such nonsense?
Jiang Fengyan had probably thought of this as well. Therefore, while he was running, he grabbed the Udumbara Flower and stuffed it into his mouth.
Since his father could not have it, then no one else could!
He would die today!
