"Hmm … Master's words are very reasonable. The Heaven's Secrets Sect's miraculous abilities are undeniable, and everyone knows about them. Little Su Su cares about you, so of course she wouldn't give you false or uncertain information. " Ling Chen's words reminded Qi Yue that the place where she had obtained the Libra Orb was completely different from what Su 'Er had told her.
"No matter what, I'll go to the Celestial Cherry Valley first."
Ling Chen decisively made this decision. He changed back into his unremarkable equipment, took out a simple map of the East Ocean Continent, and headed north.
5 days later.
Ever since Ling Chen had faced off against countless Japanese players at the Sunrise City, Ling Chen's name had spread through the virtual world at a terrifying speed. Half of the players placed him on the same level as Eve. In the eyes of the players, he deserved the honor of teasing an army of a thousand men and horses with his own strength. On the other hand, the Japanese players were completely disgraced, and they were ridiculed by the Chinese players on the international forums, but they couldn't do anything about it. The "Saber Emperor" that they had once been proud of had now become a shameful title. Although Cruelty Ichinawa's sudden incontinence and Yamazaki Jinichi's disguise were very suspicious, it was a fact that had already happened. Countless players around the world had witnessed it, and even if they tried to argue, it would be useless. The hat of humiliation hung over every Japanese player's head.
These days, the Japanese players were all on tenterhooks, afraid that a Ling Tian would suddenly appear. What had happened at the Sunrise City's Central Square had left a shadow in their hearts. Thankfully, after three days, Ling Tian seemed to have disappeared without a trace, and they could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Extreme North of the East Ocean Continent, a mountain range.
After going over this mountain, he would reach the Celestial Cherry Valley … Ling Chen closed the map and quickened his pace. Compared to the Qian Gungun's map, the map he bought from the Item Shop was too rough. There were only names of different sizes on it, and there were no annotations at all. Ling Chen had encountered at least a dozen dead ends along the way, and he had to turn around and choose a new path. There were also many times when he stepped into the territory of high-level monsters that he couldn't handle. All kinds of dangers surrounded him, and it took him five days to finally reach this place.
The weather in the Far North was so cold that even Ling Chen could not bear it. He had no choice but to buy a fox fur coat in a small town called Snow Ridge Town. Ling Chen was now wearing a thick fox fur coat and walking on the snow. The snow on the ground was too thick for the horses to run.
"I hope this is the place that Su 'Er was referring to. I hope I didn't come here for nothing!"
This was a mountain range, and there were countless mountains of different sizes, all of which were covered with a thick layer of snow. Under the sunlight, anyone who looked at it would feel dizzy and pale. The Celestial Cherry Valley was at the centre of this mountain range.
The final obstacle was right in front of him, and Ling Chen quickly climbed up … about an hour later, he reached the top of the mountain. The scenery on the other side of the mountain appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help but stare in shock.
In front of him was a completely white world, completely flawless. At the foot of the mountain, there were countless cherry blossoms, making this white world even more beautiful. Snow fell from the sky, and countless cherry blossom trees proudly bloomed within the snow. The flowers were pure white, and perfectly blended with the snow. It was impossible to tell if they were flower petals or snowflakes. The pure white cherry blossoms filled Ling Chen's field of vision, and even though he was standing at the top of the mountain, he still couldn't see the end of it. Looking down from above, the scenery was misty, adding a dreamlike quality to this breathtaking scene.
It was indeed a beautiful scene, to the point where it was difficult to describe it. Even Ling Chen felt a bit dazed as he stared at it.
The cherry blossoms in the snow … they had finally reached the Celestial Cherry Valley!
"Little Gray, let's go!"
As he yelled, Ling Chen rushed down the mountain.
Going down the mountain was naturally much faster than going up. With Little Gray in front and Ling Chen behind, they quickly reached the foot of the mountain. A vast expanse of cherry blossoms appeared in front of them.
'The snow-white ravine under the cherry blossoms'. There were cherry blossoms and snow, and all that was left was a ravine … in that case, was it a ravine between two or more small mountains?
Their goal was to find all of the small mountains in this cherry blossom forest!
"Ding … you have entered the [Celestial Cherry Valley – Falling Cherry Blossom Forest]."
After stepping into the cherry blossom forest, a system announcement sounded in Ling Chen's ears. As Ling Chen walked forwards, he couldn't help but admire the cherry blossoms in front of him. It wasn't that he hadn't seen cherry blossoms before, but it was the first time he had seen a pure white cherry blossom that danced with the falling snow. This sort of scene was incredibly pleasing to the eye. However, this sort of dream-like scene could only appear in a world like this.
After walking for less than 2 minutes, Little Gray suddenly stopped and let out a 'wuu wuu' sound. Ling Chen immediately stopped walking and threw off his thick fox fur coat as he gripped his weapons in his hands. The Sunrise City's pawnshop owner had told him that there was a cherry blossom spirit in the cherry blossom forest … a very dangerous spirit!
The dangerous auras drew closer and closer, and there were quite a few of them at the same time. However, no matter where he was, apart from cherry blossoms and drifting snow, there was nothing else. Just as Ling Chen was about to walk forwards, a message from Little Gray suddenly appeared in his mind.
[Cherry Blossom Spirit Lady]: Type: Spirit, Level: LV40, HP: 3500. An illusory spirit formed by the cherry blossom trees in the Celestial Cherry Valley after being affected by the Cherry Blossom God Representative's power for a long time. They have the ability to conceal themselves, and although they look weak, they are actually extremely dangerous. Every cherry blossom petal is a powerful weapon, and any living being that isn't a Cherry Blossom God Representative will be expelled by them.
Passive Abilities: Immune to Physical Attacks and 30% resistance to Water Attacks. They can only exist in the cherry blossom forest, and will immediately disappear upon leaving.
Attack Skills:
[Cherry Illusion]: Uses the cherry blossom petals to perfectly conceal oneself, and will only appear when attacking or being attacked.
[Cherry Blossom Petal]: Shoots out a cherry blossom petal that deals powerful damage to a single target. The petal slows down and then speeds up, and has a slight tracking effect. After hitting, there is a 3% chance of inflicting a 5-10 second [Demon Sealing] status.
Weaknesses: Fire, Wind, Lightning, Earth and Light Resistances -20%, Darkness Resistances -200%.
These were the Cherry Blossom Spirits that the pawnshop owner had mentioned! No wonder he hadn't seen anything even though he had sensed danger … they could actually conceal themselves! And they could perfectly conceal themselves! However, it was a pity that they had met Little Gray today. Under Little Gray's Eyes of the Holy Spirit, even the most powerful concealment techniques were useless.
As the Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies' information was transmitted to him, their locations were also transmitted to his mind by Little Gray. At this moment, Little Gray's eyes were equivalent to his eyes. His body blurred, and he used [Moment of Elegance] in front of him.
"Ding … the Libra Orb's effects have been activated, [Moment of Elegance]'s cooldown time has been reset."
That's right! Over the past few days, Ling Chen had confirmed that the Libra Orb's effects would be activated the instant he released his skills!
Whoosh!
-8186，-8175。
Amidst the flash of light, two gentle cries sounded. Two snow-white figures appeared behind Ling Chen … They had snow-white hair and snow-white, beautiful faces. Their bodies were as slender as willows, and their thin white clothes dragged on the ground. They looked like two delicate young girls. They appeared in the midst of their cries, and then collapsed at the same time. They dissipated and turned into two snow-white cherry blossom petals.
Immune to physical attacks? That was a joke in front of the Cancer Orb!
After the two Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies were destroyed by Ling Chen, more than ten cherry blossom petals suddenly appeared in the air. Then, they floated towards Ling Chen from different directions. At the same time, more than ten Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies appeared at the same time … All of them were beautiful, harmless, white-haired girls.
At first, the cherry blossom petals were very slow, as if they were being carried by a light breeze. They didn't seem to have any destructive power. However, when they were about four or five meters away from Ling Chen, they suddenly sped up. As they flew, they let out sharp whistling sounds, as if they were sharp blades cutting through the air. Ling Chen didn't panic. He turned his body and released Momentary Elegance again. He instantly moved 15 meters to the side and shook off all the cherry blossom petals that were flying towards him. He had already arrived beside the Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies, and two Ling Tian Slashes swept towards them.
Amidst a series of mournful cries, the five Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies were instantly killed and turned into petals on the ground. However, it was a pity that Ling Chen didn't have any protective feelings for the fairer sex. His movements didn't slow down at all. He locked onto the position of each Cherry Blossom Spirit Lady and killed them one by one. In just a short while, they were all wiped out.
However, this was the territory of the Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies after all. After killing one batch, before Ling Chen had time to catch his breath, another 10 Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies appeared around him and attacked him directly.
The Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies' main ability wasn't cherry blossom attacks, but invisibility. They could hide themselves and suddenly appear to attack. Anyone would be flustered. However, this ability was useless in front of Ling Chen. Physical immunity was also ineffective against Ling Chen. Hence, these Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies weren't a threat to Ling Chen at all. After Ling Chen easily killed wave after wave, the number of Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies didn't decrease. Instead, there were more and more of them. What was worse was that after killing so many Level-40 monsters, apart from the cherry blossom petals all over the ground, they didn't even drop a single copper coin!
They were even more stingy than the buck-toothed rabbits in the newbie village!
Ling Chen didn't bother with pointless fights. After killing the new batch, he quickly rushed into the depths of the cherry blossom forest. The ground was snow-white, and the sky was a vast expanse of whiteness. He could only see the cherry blossom trees. In such an environment where he couldn't find a point of reference, it was extremely easy to get lost. However, with Little Gray in front of him, Ling Chen didn't have to worry about this at all.
He continued forward and walked deeper into the cherry blossom forest. Along the way, countless Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies harassed him. However, they could only harass him. With his ability to instantly kill them, the Cherry Blossom Spirit Ladies couldn't stop him at all.
After 45 minutes, the cherry blossom forest was still in front of him. It didn't look any different from the places he had passed before. However, at this moment, Little Gray stopped in his tracks. A message from Little Gray appeared in Ling Chen's mind.
[Great Sun Celestial Cherry Formation]: The Cherry Blossom God Representative uses the cherry blossom tree as the foundation and her own power as the source to create a Chaotic Shadow Formation. It prevents all living creatures from entering the Cherry Blossom God Palace without permission. The Great Sun Celestial Cherry Formation is mysterious and unfathomable. If you retreat within the formation, you can quickly return safely. However, if you forcefully advance, you will be destroyed by the cherry blossom petals. Ever since the Great Sun Celestial Cherry Formation was created, no living creature had been able to force their way through.
