There was a bottomless pit below. Zhang Boyan focused his eyes and looked at it. Except for the thick pile of dead branches and leaves near the pit, it was still dark inside. However, he could sense that there seemed to be something hidden inside, and there was even a trace of cold air surging up.
Within a radius of ten thousand miles, only this place had the densest yin essence. If there was a ghost sunflower in the mountain, it must be here.
After looking at it for a few times, he did not take the risk to enter. Instead, he summoned several demons and ordered them to explore the way inside.
。
After the seven demons got his order, they jumped into the deep pit.
After a while, he suddenly felt a sense of alarm in his heart. His eyes flashed and he immediately cast a spell. However, after calling several times, there was no movement.
Zhang Boyan snorted. Even if the demon was scattered, it could gather again. At this moment, the connection between him and the demon was clearly not broken, but he could not summon it back. In such a situation, it could only be that it was trapped by something.
He immediately leaped into the air and circled around the pit. Then, he stood in the air and made a gesture. This was a supernatural power that he had learned after following Zhang Yan. However, just as he was about to use it, his movements paused and he shook his sleeves to disperse the supernatural power.
The power of this technique was extraordinary. Once it was used, it was enough to turn a few miles of land into a pool of mud. If there was a ghost sunflower inside and it was destroyed, it would not be good.
He snorted and grabbed several balls of yin thunder out of thin air. He threw them into the deep pit. After seven or eight breaths, there was a muffled sound from inside, and there was a faint sound of something hissing.
After listening for a moment, he smiled sinisterly. His body turned into yellow smoke and suddenly flew away from the original place. Just as he dodged, he saw a dark vine whizzing past where he was standing and smashed a mountain rock in the distance.
Zhang Boyan's face flushed. He was extremely experienced in fights of magical powers. Since the other party was hiding in the deep pit, it would be very difficult for him to search for them. Moreover, it would be unwise to rashly go down, so he purposely stood right above the pit. He was using himself as bait. To lure it out, the opponent below was obviously not very clever. He just needed a little bait and it fell into the trap.
That thing did not hit its target. It seemed to be very angry. There was a rustling sound in the pit. Millions of pale skeletons were squeezed out of the pit and piled up at the edge of the pit. Then, a strange flower of ten feet rose from the pit.
At first glance, it looked like a strange snake with a turtle's back. The petals were black in color, and the surface of the flower was shaped like a millstone. It was densely covered with fine seeds, and the leaves were serrated. The stem was thick and full of barbs. Wisps of black smoke lingered between the branches and leaves, and it was filled with the smell of decay. The seven devils that went down earlier were stuck by the smoke, and they couldn't get rid of it no matter what.
Zhang Boyan's eyes lit up. As a member of the Devil Doctrine, it was the first time to see such a ferocious plant spirit. He immediately had the idea of capturing it and refining it into a magic weapon. of it.
But when he took a closer look, it was clearly the Ghost Sunflower he was looking for. It was just that it was a bit bigger, so he did not recognize it at first glance.
Zhang Boyan slightly narrowed his eyes. According to his original plan, if he found a few Ghost Sunflowers here, it would prove that there was such a thing in the mountain. If this place was not enough, he would have to look elsewhere. But now it seemed that he only needed to capture this one and it would be enough to report back.
This Ghost Sunflower had been here for more than three thousand years. It was time for it to transform, but because it was worried about the Heavenly Tribulation, it did not move. Therefore, it spent hundreds of years to gather the Earth Decay Yin Qi within tens of thousands of miles of Mountain Boundary, so that it could help it resist the Heavenly Thunder at the critical moment. But it did not expect that it would all be taken advantage of by Zhang Boyan. Therefore, it hated this old demon to the extreme. Suddenly, it let out a whistling sound like a wind cave. Dozens of vines rose hundreds of feet high and lashed at the sky.
But Zhang Boyan was surprised. He slightly raised his body and dodged it. He waved his hand and a flag flew out from the Astral Cloud. He grabbed it and with a light wave, a black cloud hundreds of feet wide spread down and covered the Ghost Sunflower. In the blink of an eye, thousands of demonic smoke flew up and gathered into slender black hands. They densely grabbed the Ghost Sunflower, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of demonic smoke flew up and gathered into slender black hands. They densely grabbed the Ghost Sunflower, and in the blink of an eye, thousands of demonic smoke flew up and gathered into slender black hands.
He pressed his hand down again, and there was a rumbling sound. The huge body of the Ghost Sunflower was immediately pressed to the ground. Although it twisted and rolled on the ground like a long snake, it could not struggle at all. It immediately let out a frightened hissing sound.
The roots of the Ghost Sunflower were thousands of miles long. If it encountered a strong enemy, it could burrow into the ground and escape, moving the roots and the fruit to other places. Because he was afraid that it would escape, Zhang Boyan tied it up as soon as he came up. He originally had a few tricks up his sleeves, but he succeeded so easily. He was also a little surprised. He sneered coldly and said, "So you only have this ability. How dare you fight with me?"
Although this Ghost Sunflower had cultivated for thousands of years, it was not a natural variant like the Dragon Carp or the Flood Dragon. Before it transformed, it did not have any supernatural powers. It might be able to deal with ordinary Yuanying cultivators, but how could it compete with an Elder of the Netherworld Spring Sect? After twisting for a long time, the black hands became tighter and tighter. Suddenly, the leaves on both sides of the Ghost Sunflower bulged, and with a puchi sound, as if something was being squeezed out, a black liquid shot out like an arrow into the sky.
Zhang Boyan laughed strangely and said, "Come on!"
The High Cloud above shook, and with a rumble, a black Yuanying flew out of the top of the door. It grew to six feet tall, opened its mouth, and sucked in the smoke arrow in an instant.
This was originally a poisonous gas arrow refined by the Ghost Sunflower itself. It had always been successful against living creatures and cultivators, but in front of him, it completely lost its effect.
Zhang Boyan activated his Xuan Qi and refined the poison. Then, he shook his shoulder and dozens of green flames rose from the High Cloud and danced in the air. This technique was called "Dark Lamp Green Flame". Once it landed on a living being's body, it could burn it with its Essence Qi. If there was no technique to restrain it, it would only be extinguished when the body was completely burned into a pile of bones.
He had actually learned this method a long time ago, but he had never succeeded in practicing it until he borrowed the spiritual energy of the Blessed Enclave. He had never used it against an enemy, but now he used this Ghost Sunflower to try it out.
Following his thought, dozens of fluorescent Dark Lamps floated down. When the Ghost Sunflower saw the attack of the flames, it was instinctively frightened. Its flowers and leaves swayed, forcing out wisps of greyish-white mist, which enveloped its body. However, those green flames had their own peculiarities. They passed through the mist without any hindrance and stuck to the stems and leaves of the Ghost Sunflower. The moment they touched it, it was as if a ladle of boiling oil had been poured on it, and the fire suddenly rose to a height of ten feet. The Ghost Sunflower's body suddenly twitched, and it let out a painful howl.
Although it was a plant spirit, and it was not easy for it to transform, it still had a skill. After cultivating for so many years, its body had long been as hard as gold and iron. Even a slightly weaker divine weapon could not cut it, but under this fire, it had no power to resist.
After struggling for a while, the flower's surface suddenly opened up, and a plume of white smoke came out. Standing on top of it was a green-haired boy with a ponytail. He looked at Zhang Boyan hatefully and shouted at him, "I have no enmity with you, why do you want to harm me?"
Zhang Boyan knew that it was his Primordial Spirit that had flown out. He revealed a hideous smile and said, "My Sect Master needs to borrow your body to refine pills. Don't pretend to be innocent. Just look at the millions of bones here, and most of them are human bones. I know you are not a good person."
The boy's face turned pale. He hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Today, I know I can't avoid the disaster. If you have a way to turn me into a human, what's wrong with giving this body to you? Otherwise, I'd rather break my own roots and let my Primordial Spirit vanish than do what you want! "
Once the Ghost Sunflower's roots were broken, it would be completely useless. Zhang Boyan narrowed his eyes and did not speak for a long time, as if he was seriously considering it.
After a while, he seemed a little reluctant and said, "Fine, I'll agree to it."
The Ghost Sunflower was not at ease, and said, "First, make an oath."
Zhang Boyan did not hesitate and immediately made an oath.
The Ghost Sunflower was relieved. His body flickered, and he took back his Primordial Spirit Shadow. Then he saw his ten feet tall body slowly shrink, and finally it was only three feet tall.
Zhang Boyan raised his hand, and first took back the Dark Lantern. Then, he shook his sleeves, and the thousands of black hands suddenly turned into several. They wrapped around the Ghost Sunflower a few times, and finally lifted it into the air. The Ghost Sunflower did not doubt him, and did not struggle at all. Instead, it obediently pulled out its roots and leaves from the soil, and let him take it with him.
After successfully capturing the Ghost Sunflower, Zhang Boyan laughed wildly, rode a yellow wind, and returned to the direction of the Deep Cave Sect's mountain gate.
About half an hour later, the Ghost Sunflower suddenly asked curiously, "Daoist, I forgot to ask you, what kind of spell are you going to use to help me turn into a human?"
Zhang Boyan perfunctorily said, "What kind of spell can I use to help you?"
The Ghost Sunflower was startled, and his body struggled, and he shouted, "Just Now, you've already made an oath, do you want to break your promise?"
Zhang Boyan burst into laughter and said, "How can this seat be coerced by a mere plant demon? Just Now, I've only made a false oath. "
He had already seen that the Ghost Sunflower did not have much knowledge. Although he had heard of the name of the Dharma Oath, he might not know what it was all about, so he was just pretending.
In fact, the words of a Daoist cultivator's promise also contained profound meaning, but as a cultivator of the Devil Sect, deception was a common thing for him, so he naturally had a way to deal with it. Just Now, the words spoken by the Ghost Sunflower had no binding force on him.
After the Ghost Sunflower heard it, he loudly cursed.
Zhang Boyan sneered a few times. If he was not worried that the loss of the Primordial Spirit might delay Zhang Yan's alchemy, how could he tolerate the Ghost Sunflower's clamor?
After flying west for three days, he had already returned to the western boundary of the divine house. After another day and night, he rushed back to Cang Zhu Peak. The disciple on duty recognized him, so he had already opened the mountain gate's restrictive formation. He turned into a yellow smoke and went straight to the peak.
When he arrived outside the cave, he stopped using his escape technique and landed on the open ground.
Zhang Yan, who was meditating, had already sensed his return, so he waved his sleeve and opened the cave's stone door, saying with a smile, "It's only been twenty days, but Zhang has already returned, so you must have gained something."
After Zhang Boyan entered the cave, he cupped his hands and bowed, then said, "Manor Master, I was also lucky to have caught a thousand-year-old Ghost Sunflower, which can be used for Manor Master's alchemy."
