Upon hearing the Oracle Fey Kingdom's king's question, Song Wuchen's mind was in turmoil.
With the situation having developed to this point, he did not know what to do. The test he had prepared was useless against more than ten thousand people. Was he going to test the Nine Palatial Array again?
Ignoring the fact that he was too ashamed to use the Nine Palatial Array again, even if he used it, what would he do if the previous problem occurred again? He could really slam his head into a wall and die.
Who was it that cracked my Nine Palatial Array? Could it really be a disciple participating in the test, such as … Yi Yun!?
The tens of thousands of people present had their eyes focused on Song Wuchen. Song Wuchen did not care about the opinions of these inferior warriors, but … Felicitous Rain Lord!
Song Wuchen knew very well that Felicitous Rain Lord was watching him on the floating island. He was waiting to see his performance. This made him anxious like an ant on a hot pan. His palms were sweating. If not for the Demon Defying Bead's assistance, it was impossible for him to use an array to test more than ten thousand people in one go.
Unless he chased everyone to the desolate lands and split them into groups to fight it out. However, such a simple and crude method of testing that was not fair clearly did not satisfy Felicitous Rain Lord.
At that moment. Phew —
As if a misty rain had drifted past, the misty rain enveloped the towering tree's palace. A white-dressed woman appeared in the palace's square.
Shui Ningshuang!
She had followed Felicitous Rain Lord tens of thousands of years ago, and she was also the person he trusted the most.
"Martial Aunt Ningshuang …"
Song Wuchen hurriedly stood up to bow. Seeing Shui Ningshuang, Song Wuchen felt nervous. Clearly, Shui Ningshuang was dissatisfied with the test he had presided over.
"I'll set the next test's question!"
Shui Ningshuang said. That sentence made Song Wuchen's heart turn cold.
He gaped his mouth, but ultimately, he did not say a word.
Shui Ningshuang's question?
Many of the disciples present looked at Shui Ningshuang, but Shui Ningshuang's gaze had unintentionally landed on Yi Yun.
Yi Yun did not stand out amongst the tens of thousands of examinees present. Others might not know that Shui Ningshuang was paying attention to Yi Yun, but Yi Yun naturally knew.
He stroked his chin and knew that the process of him cracking the array had most likely been seen by Shui Ningshuang.
He was not afraid that the secret of the Purple Crystal would be exposed. The Purple Crystal far exceeded the martial realms of this world, so no one could detect it.
Without being able to detect the Purple Crystal, people could only attribute it to Yi Yun himself.
Since he wanted to become a personal disciple, he had to let others see how extraordinary he was. There was no point in hiding his strength.
"Since the first test is already like this, everyone will be considered to have passed. As for the second test …"
As Shui Ningshuang spoke, she flicked her finger.
"Xiu!"
A dim light shot out from Shui Ningshuang's fingertip. The light streaked across the void and rapidly grew until it became a large door.
"Boom!"
The door landed on the ground and stood in front of everyone.
This door was hundreds of feet wide and more than ten stories tall. It was incomparably huge.
Through the gate, people could see the misty rain falling on the other side of the gate. Lofty mountains and precipitous ridges were faintly hidden in the misty rain. The grass on the ground was luxuriant, as if there was an endless sea of flowers.
A door that led to another world!
"This is the Door of Misty Rain, a Divine Lord herb garden that I'm in charge of. Inside the Door of Misty Rain is a world of its own. The test I set is for everyone to enter the Door of Misty Rain, pluck a flower from the grass, and come out again to pass!"
Divine Lord herb garden?
Pick flowers?
When the disciples present heard that, they were extremely excited. It was actually a Divine Lord herb garden!
Just the thought of being able to enter a Divine Lord herb garden excited them. Furthermore, the test's content was rather fresh!
Picking flowers inside the Door of Misty Rain sounded very simple, but everyone knew that Shui Ningshuang's test was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface. The Door of Misty Rain probably had a trick to it.
However, the more it was so, the more interesting it became. If anyone could complete it, it would be meaningless.
"Haha, pick flowers. Fairy Ningshuang, may I ask if picking a flower is a pass? Are there any other grades?"
Black Tiger asked loudly.
Previously, those who took the shortest amount of time to clear the Nine Palatial Array naturally had better results.
As for picking flowers, the Door of Misty Rain was right in front of them. The flower bush was not far either. As long as one had the ability to rush in to pluck the flower and come back, the time taken would not be too different. This would not reflect the difference between his results and others.
"Grades?" Fairy Ningshuang laughed. "The flower closest to the Door of Misty Rain is the Seven Heart Flower. This flower takes a thousand years to sprout and grow. After a thousand years, it will condense a flower bud. Every thousand years, it will have an additional petal. For a total of ten thousand years, if one were to pluck a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower, it would be considered perfect. However, it doesn't matter even if one can't pluck a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower. Even bringing back a flower bud would be considered a pass!"
When Fairy Ningshuang said this, everyone looked towards the Door of Misty Rain.
Through the misty rain, people could indeed see the flowers on the grass. The number of petals was different.
The ones closest to the Door of Misty Rain's entrance were flower buds. And the deeper one went, the flower buds would slowly extend their petals.
However, a typical flower with four or five petals would be considered a lot. Six petals were extremely rare. Most of them were in the deepest depths of the misty rain, so it was already a blur.
As for seven-petaled flowers, there was no sign of them.
"Are there seven-petaled flowers?"
Black Tiger stretched his neck to look. He wanted to find one ahead of time and lock onto his target after entering the Door of Misty Rain and pluck it in one go!
Even if it was too difficult and he could not pluck it, he could leave with five or six petals when he exited.
Black Tiger's question made the elders in the towering tree's palace frown.
A legendary figure from the World Margin Sect said, "Although the Seven Heart Flower doesn't have a long lifespan, with a maximum of ten thousand years, it is extremely precious. It gathers the essence of the world, so most Seven Heart Flowers wither before they fully bloom. Only one in ten thousand can grow to ten thousand years. This is a top sacred herb. It has an unbelievable effect on Dao Manifestation realm warriors in their breakthrough of the Dao Palace or Heaven Ascension realm warriors in their Dao Manifestation!"
"Kid, do you think a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower is cabbage? You can find it easily! "
The elder grunted. Clearly, he could not stand a burly and shallow person like Black Tiger. It was unknown how Black Tiger had managed to run to the front during the first round.
Upon hearing the elder's words, everyone's eyes lit up. Most of the people present were at the Heaven Ascension realm. A ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower would definitely be a priceless treasure if it was of great use to them in their Dao Manifestation.
At that moment, Shui Ningshuang said with a smile, "All the Seven Heart Flowers you pluck will belong to you, including the ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower! Of course, whether you get it or not will depend on your own opportunities. "
Shui Ningshuang's words excited many of the disciples present.
The Seven Heart Flowers plucked would belong to them!
The value of the herbs in the Divine Lord herb garden was not to be doubted. Furthermore, the legendary figure from the World Margin Sect had mentioned the miraculous effects of the Seven Heart Flower.
For example, Black Tiger, Bear Two, and the other Fey who came from tribes could not wait any longer. What they lacked the most were natural treasures. The Divine Lord herb garden in front of them was like charcoal in the snowy weather.
