The Mirage Lotus was becoming more and more mysterious and illusory, as if it was about to become transparent. The rooster's cave was filled with a strange and mysterious law.
Grimm remained unfazed as he continued to complete his research. He didn't even take a step out of the cave. The seven-colored rooster was anxious, but there was nothing it could do. On one hand, it was intoxicated by the Phantom Lotus, but on the other hand, it was on guard against Grimm.
The two didn't sign any contract. It was just a verbal agreement.
"These strange phenomena are interesting. Is this plant a treasure from your world?"
The illusory petals of the lotus turned into illusions of monsters that had recently died in the Pangu Abyss. They floated in the air. Occasionally, something solid that could disturb one's mind would rush towards Little Eight, Grimm, and the rooster. However, they didn't cause any damage. It was as if a cold breeze was blowing on their backs.
Most of these monsters were creatures that had challenged Grimm's throne as the King of the Abyss and were killed. They were twisted and ferocious, but as a knowledgeable Elemental Sorcerer, Grimm would not be fooled by these appearances.
"Hmph, I have to thank the Sorcerer World. If not for the invasion of the Sorcerer World, the Mirage Lotus, the symbol of the Shadow Fiend King, wouldn't have fallen into my hands."
Although he was thanking Angor, the hatred and anger in his tone were undisguised.
"The Gale Fox has told me the value of the Mirage Lotus. Communicating with the power of darkness?"
Grimm stared at the seven-colored rooster with a playful smile.
The rooster suddenly froze and didn't speak for a long time. The atmosphere in the cave became a little tense. After a while, Little Eight's mocking laughter sounded. "Caw caw caw caw, I'm dying of laughter. What an ignorant fool. Do you think the power my young master is looking for is something your Mirage Lotus can compare to?"
As the Rainbow Rooster stiffened up awkwardly, Grimm suddenly stretched out a finger. With a whoosh, a Darkness Pool appeared. It was pitch-black, and all the light that shone on it was mercilessly devoured. It was very similar to the power of the Phantom Lotus, but to an even greater extent!
Due to the backlash, Grimm could only maintain this Source of Darkness for such a short period of time.
The seven-colored rooster stared blankly at the spot where the Source of Darkness had appeared on Grimm's finger.
"Come to think of it, I obtained the power of Dark Shadow many years ago by accident. However, because this Dark Force is too noble, it has already reached the level of Mystical Backlash, so it can't be said to be able to control it. The appearance of this Mirage Lotus has provided me with a rather good method of entry."
In his previous research on the Mana Backlash, Grimm had once again made an incredible discovery about the power of Destruction.
The Ancient Sorcerers' research on the Destructive Force was limited to the fact that it could be triggered by counteracting energy.
However, with Grimm's accidental discovery of the World Veil's Lightning Tank Law, he had already achieved the unprecedented true control and application of the Destructive Force, completing one of the conditions for the advancement of a Stigmata Sorcerer.
During the time when he was lurking in Bi Seer City on the Eastern Coral Island, Grimm had once traveled to the Void to launch the Great Sacrificial Sorcery. After returning to the Sorcerers World, he unexpectedly discovered that the Destructive Force produced by the mutual annihilation of the Void Energy and the Material Energy had actually produced a completely different effect from the Destructive Force produced by the counteracting of the Water and Fire Elements.
The Destructive Force produced under different conditions had different application effects!?
In the field of Grimm's research on the Destructive Force, this shocking discovery was no less than the first Elemental Sorcerer who discovered the magnificent feat of changing the elemental structure and leveraging the rule of leverage!
Although due to the Mana Backlash, Grimm did not have much time to conduct systematic research, but Grimm immediately began to connect the dots.
The energy of Water and Fire, or rather, the energy of Ice and Fire, collided with each other, producing the purest destructive Destructive Force of Destruction. On the other hand, the Material Energy and the Void Energy collided, producing a huge and unbelievable source of energy. This was also the direction that Grimm planned for his future development as an Elemental Enhancement Sorcerer.
So, what kind of Destructive Force would the collision of the opposing energy of Light and Darkness be?
Naturally, Grimm thought of his own Darkness Pool, a mysterious high-level energy that had already broken away from the Endless World's power system. However, he awkwardly discovered that he did not have the same high-level energy of Light that could match it at all …
The multicolored rooster only regained its senses after a long time. Looking at the increasingly mysterious and unfathomable Grimm, it felt like a cricket being toyed with in a tray. It thought that it was making use of Grimm, but it did not know that it was only part of the goal that Grimm was pursuing.
"The aura of death can more effectively promote the maturity of the Welcoming Lotus. Otherwise, the Shadow Fiends would not have held the Blood Feast regularly, which would have led to the Sorcerer World's invasion. This Mirage Lotus would also not have matured eight years earlier because of your wanton slaughter."
The minimum time required for maturity was a thousand years, and the environmental requirements were extremely harsh. Therefore, possessing the lotus seeds did not equate to possessing the Mirage Lotus.
Grimm nodded silently. After trying his best to put on a harmless smile, he stood up and said, "As per our agreement, I will take three of the seven lotus seeds."
After saying this, Grimm turned around and left the cave with Little Eight.
Compared to obtaining clues about the Phaseless Ancient Demon's remains through the multicolored rooster and opening up the knowledge of the Life Code, Grimm naturally understood the choice of a matured Mirage Lotus.
Three days later.
As the strange illusory fluctuations of the Mirage Lotus reached their peak, the entire Abyssal Canyon seemed to ripple with invisible waves. Suddenly, the power disappeared.
Outside the cave, Grimm turned around and silently looked into the dark depths of the hidden cave.
After a long while, Grimm sniffed with his hunting nose and suddenly smiled mysteriously. "Dividing one's power into two parts, the shadow and the main body. Or rather, a part of one's flesh and blood has the power to absorb the aura of death. Interesting."
Inside the cave, the multicolored rooster slowly walked out without a shadow. One of its wings extended, and three black lotus seeds surrounded by illusory images flew toward Grimm. The rooster stared at Grimm in disbelief. "You're different from those Sorcerers. You're even scarier than them!"
The shadow under Grimm's feet wriggled, and the shadow of the multicolored rooster appeared. After wriggling for a while, it returned to the rooster's feet.
Grimm knew that the "them" the rooster was referring to were the Body Refinement Sorcerers.
Elemental Sorcerers had terrifying insight and learning abilities. As long as they had enough time, they would be the source of fear for all creatures.
After receiving the three Mirage Lotus seeds, Grimm said, "Then, let's go!"
