Inside the VIP room, a nine-colored flower landed on Ling Xian's shoulder. Instantly, it emitted a blinding amount of light.
The dazzling nine-colored light expanded. Like a dream, everything was blurry.
At the same time, a strange wave of energy appeared and began to absorb his lifespan.
This made Ling Xian frown. But after confirming that he didn't feel any discomfort, his brows relaxed. His eyes flashed with curiosity.
"Interesting. The Nine-Colored Flower of Choosing. It can absorb a cultivator's lifespan."
Sensing that nothing was out of the ordinary, yet his lifespan was rapidly slipping away, Ling Xian's interest was piqued.
He had never heard of anything in the World of Cultivation that could absorb a cultivator's life force. Even those evil magic treasures couldn't do that.
Unless a cultivator is burning their lifespan, very few things can absorb someone else's lifespan due to the rules of Heaven and Earth.
Therefore, he secretly manipulated his Qi and planned on investigating the secrets of the Nine-Colored Flower of Choice.
Sadly, after he carefully investigated it, he couldn't figure out why this flower could absorb his lifespan.
"Don't waste your time. Every single leader of the City of Flowers wants to know the secret of this flower. But countless years have passed and nobody has ever found out."
Hua Wan Yue spoke softly, "Just wait quietly. After this flower absorbs 50 years of your lifespan, it will naturally leave."
"That's true."
Ling Xian softly grinned and no longer thought about it. After all, there were so many unsolved mysteries in the Taoism community. Perhaps this flower naturally had the ability to absorb a cultivator's lifespan. That wasn't impossible.
"Just wait quietly."
Ling Xian sipped on his tea and allowed the flower on his shoulder to absorb his lifespan. His casual demeanor made Hua Wan Yue speechless.
Lifespan was the most important thing to a cultivator. Even though she was of the original level, she didn't dare to waste 50 years of her lifespan so easily.
Yet Ling Xian was calm and collected. It was as if he wasn't sacrificing 50 years of his lifespan, but merely five days.
To him, it was true.
Don't forget, he had only been cultivating for a few decades and was only one step away from the original level. Even if he lost 100 years of his lifespan, he could afford it, let alone 50 years.
Exchanging fifty years of his lifespan for two drops of Holy Spirit Water was a bargain indeed.
Therefore, his expression was normal as he casually sipped on his tea and waited for the Nine Colored Flower to finish absorbing.
Seeing this, Hua Wan Yue smiled helplessly, "If I didn't know your lifespan was being sucked away, I would've thought you were enjoying something wonderful."
"Although it's not a good thing to have one's lifespan sucked away. However, this is the first time I've experienced this. "Ling Xian grinned.
"You won't say that after you are done." Hua Wan Yue's face flashed with anticipation. She was looking forward to seeing how weak Ling Xian looks.
"After that?"
Ling Xian was a little startled, "Looking at how unkind you are, I knew it wasn't something good."
"That's not a bad thing. It's just that 50 years of your lifespan has been sucked away all of a sudden. It's inevitable that you'll feel a little weak."
Hua Wan Yue softly grinned, "Don't worry. I have prepared a great tonic for you. Just eat it later."
"Oh, so you mean weak."
Ling Xian had a realization. He smiled but didn't say anything.
For normal people, after losing 50 years of their lifespan, they would feel weak. After all, 50 years was not a small number. However, he had only been cultivating for a few decades. Even if he lost 50 years of his lifespan, he still had 200 years to live.
Therefore, he didn't think he would feel weak.
After the nine-colored flower finished absorbing his lifespan, he didn't show any signs of weakness. His face was still young, like a 16 or 17 year old. His hair was still black and thick without a single strand of white hair.
This startled Hua Wan Yue. Her beautiful eyes flickered with shock.
She originally thought that no matter how young Ling Xian was, after losing 50 years of his lifespan, he would show signs of weakness. Yet before her eyes, he was still as young as ever and didn't look weak at all. Why wouldn't she be shocked?
"I have underestimated you. I cannot believe you are younger than I thought."
Hua Wan Yue gave Ling Xian a long look. Remembering his glorious achievements in the undefeatable realm of the completion level and his insanely young age, she couldn't help but exclaim.
He was truly a peerless monster.
"So, you can forget about the tonics. Just give me the Holy Spirit Water." Ling Xian grinned and planned on putting the two jade bottles into his storage pouch.
Just then, he suddenly felt that after the nine-colored flower finished absorbing his lifespan, it began to absorb his Essence of Herbalism.
This made his expression change. He quickly manipulated his Golden Dan to defend against the strange suction!
"Hmm?"
Hua Wan Yue frowned. Looking at the heavenly flower, she didn't understand what was happening.
"A mere flower dares to steal my Essence of Herbalism?"
Ling Xian's eyes flashed with fierceness. His undefeatable realm poured out of him to defend against the strange power of the nine-colored flower.
HOMMMM!
An infinite amount of heavenly light shot through the cloud. On one side, there was a flower that was as rare as the Devious Burial Flower. On the other side, there was a demon of the undefeatable realm of the completion level.
The two powerhouses clashed and exploded with a terrifying amount of vibration that forced Hua Wan Yue back a few steps.
"What's wrong with the nine-colored flower? It was supposed to leave after taking his lifespan, why is it continuing to absorb his energy? "
Hua Wan Yue's brows were tightly locked together, "Could it be that the flower chose this young man because he has something inside him that the flower wants?"
As she spoke, she began to hesitate. She wasn't sure who to help.
If she helps the flower, she can suppress Ling Xian and she won't have to give up two drops of the Holy Spirit Water. This will benefit the entire City of Flowers. But if she does that, she will be going back on her word.
"Hmmph, suppress!"
Ling Xian coldly shouted. He knew that he had to be decisive. If Hua Wan Yue and the flower work together, then he will be in danger. Therefore, he crazily manipulated his undefeatable realm and immediately suppressed the flower.
Next, his right hand formed into the Disorder Conquering Fists and headed towards the nine-colored flower!
Heavenly energy poured out of him and the Disorder Conquering Fists shocked everyone. However, it was stopped by Hua Wan Yue, who suddenly dashed before him.
HOMMMM!
Earth-shattering fluctuations spread out. Even with the protection of the defensive array, the VIP room collapsed in an instant.
The nine-colored flower's light dimmed and it was extremely weak.
"Leader Hua, you told me that after this flower absorbs another 50 years of my lifespan, it will leave. But just now, why did it want to absorb the rest of my energy? "
Ling Xian's expression turned cold as he stared at Hua Wan Yue, "Leader Hua, do you not want to give me an explanation?"
"I understand how you are feeling right now. But I am sorry. I don't know what the reason is. Something like this has never happened before."
Hua Wan Yue's face was apologetic, "No matter what, I had no intention of harming you. Or else I would've allied myself with the flower."
