Now that the enemies had entered this flower field, they definitely wouldn't be able to get out within a short period of time. If Sun Mo wanted to take advantage of the situation, he would have to wait for the poison to act up and kill them completely. Hence, there was no hurry.
Holy Pharaoh was an old monster that had lived for over ten thousand years and was very experienced. It knew that if there were secret treasures in this place, they would definitely be in the most central area. Therefore, it focused all its energy on these areas.
Very soon, Holy Pharaoh discovered that there were fewer and fewer corpses in an area. This meant that no animals could enter this place.
Naturally, it was where the Heavenly Treasures were located.
As Holy Pharaoh had drunk the honey, it was able to resist the invasion of the purple poisonous miasma. Therefore, it pushed forward. 15 minutes later, it saw a purple flower.
It was like an outstanding beauty. Even though it was deep within the endless sea of flowers, Holy Pharaoh could still see it with a single glance.
"She's really beautiful. No, I should say flirtatious."
Holy Pharaoh sighed emotionally.
Different flowers had different temperaments. For example, the peony was graceful and luxurious, the lotus was pure and noble, and this violet flower was bewitching.
That's right, she was like a temptress that could destroy a country.
Holy Pharaoh glanced over and felt a little dazed, unable to extricate itself. Thankfully, its will was strong and it quickly shifted its gaze away.
Then, to its horror, it discovered that it had already walked more than ten meters forward.
"Master must be warned. This flower is dangerous."
Holy Pharaoh returned.
…
"Found it?"
Ying Baiwu was elated. "I'll open up the path!"
"Master, I advise you not to go. It's too dangerous."
Holy Pharaoh persuaded earnestly.
"Entering a treasure mountain and returning empty-handed is a great sin, do you know that?"
Li Ruolan scolded. After that, she pulled Sun Mo's hand. "Quickly leave."
Bai Xiqing's gaze immediately drifted over. You dare to pull my idol's wrist? Damn, I really want to chop off her hand.
"Let's go take a look first!"
Sun Mo also couldn't bear to give up.
The closer one got to the flower, the denser the purple miasma became. Furthermore, the advantages and disadvantages of one's physique began to show.
"Zhiruo, the purple spots on your body have worsened."
Tantai Yutang had been observing his junior martial siblings. When he saw the papaya girl's skin color, he immediately reminded them.
"Ah?"
Lu Zhiruo jumped in fright and lowered her head to take a look.
"Aren't you dizzy?"
Li Ziqi also wanted to do this, but her constitution didn't allow it. Right now, she was already starting to feel nauseous.
"No!"
Lu Zhiruo shook her head. However, the stripes on her body seemed to be alive, spreading out at a visible rate.
"All of you, get out!"
Sun Mo instructed.
"I'm fine!"
Xuanyuan Po wanted to go and take a look. Perhaps there would be a fight.
"From now on, whoever has a problem with their body, leave immediately."
Sun Mo hesitated a little and gave up on getting his personal students to go out. After all, this was a tempering exercise. It wouldn't be bad to gain some experience.
The actual situation was better than what Sun Mo had expected. Other than Tantai Yutang and Ying Baiwu feeling uncomfortable, the others were fine.
"This flower is so eye-catching!"
Li Ruolan sighed with emotion. She immediately took out an Image Recording Stone and took pictures from various angles.
"This place is too strange. There's no sign of life at all!"
Mei Ziyu touched her arm and shivered. The surroundings were very cold, even more terrifying compared to a mass grave during a rainy day.
"The problem now is, how do we pluck that flower?"
As Jiang Leng spoke, he looked toward Holy Pharaoh.
"B * stard, what's with that look in your eyes?"
Holy Pharaoh was enraged. (Are you asking me to die?) It then cried out, "Master, I've tried it, but it doesn't work. The closer we get to the flower, the more poison there is in our bodies. Moreover, the poison will act up even faster."
"I'll go and give it a try!"
Xuanyuan Po licked his lips and wanted to rush over, but he was pulled back by Sun Mo.
"I'll go!"
Just as Sun Mo's voice rang out, he was interrupted.
"No way!"
There were a few hands that pulled back Sun Mo.
"I'll get my puppet to give it a try!"
Murong Mingyue took out her puppet. It was a wooden figure.
Kacha! Kacha!
The wooden figure ran and rapidly approached the flower.
All of a sudden, an ethereal voice rang out.
Everyone felt as if their heads had been knocked, and they fell into a daze. When they regained their senses, they saw the miasma condensing into many strands that were like tentacles that wrapped toward the wooden figure.
The advancing speed of the wooden figure got increasingly slower. Moreover, the wooden figure that was originally dark was also dyed purple. When it was over 20 meters away from the flower, it stood there in a daze as if it had died.
"Let's give up. If we go by ourselves, we will be killed before we can even get within 50 meters."
Murong Mingyue persuaded.
Her puppet wasn't just made of wood. It was also augmented with all sorts of high-end puppetry techniques. Its vitality was much stronger than humans. If even it was damaged, there was no hope for humans to succeed.
"If humans can't do it, then let the battle pets do it!"
Hence, Sun Mo got his personal students to go and catch butterflies.
15 minutes later, everyone returned with 100 butterflies.
Sun Mo directly used Lu's Proof.
Swoosh!
Golden light enveloped these butterflies. After that, these little fellows that were struggling quietened down and started to dance around Sun Mo.
"Go and pick that flower back."
Sun Mo used his will to instruct them.
Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!
The butterflies flapped their wings rapidly, but they didn't obey.
Because their intellect was too high, they weren't able to communicate with their master like that monkey. However, their panic and anxiety were clearly transmitted to Sun Mo.
"Go!"
This time around, Sun Mo hardened his heart. If he didn't go, he would kill these butterflies.
The butterflies had no choice but to fly toward the flowers.
Because they had lived here for generations, their tolerance toward the miasma was very high. Although they kept dying and falling as they neared the flowers, there were still over 20 butterflies that managed to touch the flowers in the end.
After that, swoosh!
At the instant the butterflies touched the flowers, the surrounding miasma gushed over like a raging tide, directly crushing them. Not even dregs were left behind.
"So fierce?"
Everyone drew in a cold gasp of air.
This stance was clearly saying that whoever touched the flowers would die.
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight and eight bright red words popped out.
Unknown target, unable to be analyzed.
"You are so useless, what use do I have for you?"
Sun Mo felt depressed.
At such a time, how could he win if he didn't even ask for help from outside?
Wait a minute, asking for help from outside?
"Dragon Soul, are you there?"
Sun Mo suddenly recalled that he still had a spiritual beast. However, this fellow's reputation was too great and its status was too high. In addition, it had been in a deep sleep all this time. Hence, Sun Mo almost forgot about it.
"What?"
The dragon soul's voice sounded sleepy. But after that, it roared, "F * ck, what damnable place is this? Why is the deathly aura so strong? Quickly leave! Quickly leave! "
"Don't be anxious first. Help me take a look at what plant this is."
Sun Mo flattered. "You have lived for so long, you must be able to recognize it, right?"
"Of course, I'm an ancient giant dragon. When I was reborn, many species were still eggs!"
The dragon soul let out a complacent snort. After that, it looked toward the flower and was stunned.
Sun Mo waited for a few minutes. Seeing that the dragon soul had no intention to speak, he could only wake it up. After all, he couldn't stay here for long.
"Dragon soul, what is this?"
"It looks like a Life and Death Flower!"
As expected, the dragon soul didn't let everyone down.
"What is that?"
Sun Mo was curious. He felt that this name was very impressive.
"It's a type of life-prolonging divine flower. Even people who are on the verge of death can immediately recover after consuming it and gain an additional few hundred years of lifespan."
The dragon soul explained, "However, I haven't seen the actual Life and Death Flower before, so I don't dare to be sure."
"Really?"
Sun Mo's eyes lit up. If it was the Life and Death Flower, he might be able to use it to save the old headmaster.
"Stop dreaming. If it's really the Life and Death Flower, you won't be able to obtain it even if you live your entire life!"
The dragon soul persuaded.
"What do you mean?"
Sun Mo frowned.
"The Life and Death Flower, the living will die, and the dead will live!"
The dragon soul explained, "This means that when it grows, it will be a 'dead' flower that brings death. All species that get close to it will have their vitality sucked dry and become its fertilizer.
"And the dead will live. This means that this flower will wither and die. Only then will it have the effect of reviving the dead, regrowing flesh and bones, and prolonging lifespan."
Sun Mo frowned. "Then when will it wither?"
"How would I know?"
The dragon soul was speechless. (I eat meat, alright? Who would pay attention to a flower?)
"Then can we make it die artificially?"
Sun Mo instantly thought of several attacking methods, but he was afraid of killing this Life and Death Flower.
"I don't know!"
The dragon soul shrugged. "You can comprehend it yourself. I'm going to sleep."
"Wait a minute, you are a spirit body, right?"
Sun Mo suddenly thought of something. "You won't die, right?"
"Sorry, a spirit body is also a type of life form. I will die too."
The dragon soul had no solution.
Sun Mo kneaded his forehead and could only give up. "Let's go."
"What's wrong?"
Mei Ziyu didn't understand.
Sun Mo told everyone about the dragon soul's general knowledge.
"Although it's a flower, its attack prowess isn't low."
Sun Mo shrugged.
"I feel so unwilling!"
Ying Baiwu felt very depressed.
"Let's go."
Sun Mo urged. But at this moment, that stupid bird's voice rang out in Sun Mo's mind.
"Human, I can help you get this flower, but you have to give me freedom."
"Mn?"
Sun Mo was surprised. After that, he persuaded, "I don't want you to risk your life for freedom. If you wish to leave, I can remove the contract."
"There's no need."
The crane was also very proud and didn't need charity. However, it was still very touched in its heart. This human's character was really indescribable.
It was a pity that it didn't want to be a slave.
"If we pluck the Life and Death Flower now, this flower field will wither and the illusion will vanish. The enemies chasing after us will also be freed. At that time, you guys will still die. Hence, we should kill the enemies first before taking the flower."
The crane suggested.
"Alright!"
Sun Mo didn't mind. It was worth it to earn a peak-grade secret treasure for free.
However, what was the origin of this stupid bird?
To think that it could pluck the Life and Death Flower that even the dragon soul couldn't do anything to?
Could it be an ancient immortal bird?
"You should go and kill them first!"
The crane instructed, "Oh right, do you still have wine?"
Sun Mo was instantly speechless.
"Che, you don't even have wine. How can you be considered a man?"
The crane spoke in disdain.
(As expected, I can't recognize you as my master.)
