Chapter 148: The Fragrance of the Flowers, the One-Colored Green Lotus
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After a short while, the sunlight disappeared, and so did the fluorescent herb.
Su Yi knew that Li Mengxi had taken it, so he asked, “how is it? Is it a hundred-year-old herb?”
Li Mengxi nodded her head heavily, and the joy on her face spread out. According to the notification on her interface, the immortal sect mission had been completed and she had gained points.
She looked at Su Yi with grat.i.tude and said, “fellow Daoist Su, thank you for your help. If it weren’t for your help, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to find this hundred-year-old fluorescent herb even if I searched here for a long time.”
He waved his hand to indicate that it was a small matter. Moreover, he was not in a hurry. He would help if he could.
Just as they were about to leave the back of the Green Rock Longevity Giant Turtle, the demon king began to move again.
The two people standing on the back of the giant turtle swayed for a moment, but they quickly stabilized themselves. Their bodies followed the giant turtle under Su Yi’s feet and quickly headed toward a direction in the lake.
At this time, a strange, faint white fog had unknowingly drifted over the vast lake. A faint fragrance actually circulated in the air.
This fragrance naturally did not come from the pretty lady beside him. Instead, it was a faint flower fragrance. In addition to the unusual movement of the demon king under their feet, they were immediately on guard.
“What’s going on?”
“I don’t understand. In any case, just be careful.”
The two of them had their backs facing each other. Their eyes looked around them. Everything within a 360-degree radius was actually within their eyes. As long as there was any unusual movement, their side would be able to react extremely quickly.
However, the truth was that they were thinking too much. Although there was fog on the surface of the lake, it was not too thick. Hence, they could still see it in their field of vision.
As they were in the middle of the lake, they could see at a glance that there were no external objects around them. The only things that were changing were the strange fragrance and the demon beasts under their feet.
Very quickly, they followed the Green Rock Longevity Giant Turtle back to the center of the lake. They saw that a lotus had appeared out of nowhere and was emitting a thick fragrance.
When the Green Rock Longevity Giant Turtle saw this lotus, it was as if it had seen something delicious. Its speed increased abruptly once again.
Under the water, that huge rock-like mouth had already opened slowly. It was actually trying to swallow the lotus.
Seeing this, Su Yi’s eyes lit up. Something that could make a demon king swallow it regardless of its threat must be some kind of rare treasure.
His eyes focused, and the true essence under his feet surged. Then, he lifted his foot that carried a sharp true essence and stomped down heavily.
Boom!!
A loud boom sounded, and faint cracks started to spread out between the huge rocks under Su Yi’s feet. The Green Rock Longevity Giant Turtle let out a sorrowful cry in the water, and its body sank, almost unable to keep floating on the surface of the water.
Soon after, Su Yi flew up and left the back of the huge turtle. Stepping on the surface of the lake, he quickly arrived at the place where the lotus flowers were in full bloom.
As soon as he got close to this place, he could feel that the spiritual energy around his body seemed to be somewhat dense, and a comfortable feeling spread through his body.
It could be concluded that this item was definitely a treasure. It was just that he did not expect that there would actually be a treasure here. This particular timing could be described as meticulous.
At first, they were attracted by the fireflies, then they discovered the hundred-year-old fluorescent herb, and then they did not kill this demon king immediately.
If they had killed this demon king, they would have already returned to the sh.o.r.e by now. After that, it would be even more impossible for them to discover such intentions, and even more impossible for them to discover such a small lotus flower amidst the layers of mist.
The demon king seemed to have sensed what Su Yi wanted to do. It saw a large number of bubbles emerging from the bottom of the water. It must be roaring loudly.
However, it was only like this. It did not dare to approach Su Yi at all. Su Yi’s kick gave it a feeling of fear, causing it to be afraid of this human cultivator.
Why? The feeling that was transmitted to it through its bloodline, as long as it dared to attack this human, it would die.
From the corner of his eyes, Su Yi glanced at the Green Rock Longevity Giant Turtle. With a light snort, he ignored it.
At this moment, Li Mengxi’s lotus steps rippled as she arrived beside Su Yi. She looked at the lotus flower that had already bloomed with curiosity.
The fragrance that spread out was somewhat intoxicating. Su Yi waved his large hand, and just as he was about to gather it, he suddenly thought of what would happen if he used the Immortal Spirit Gathering Technique?
After all, he had previously gathered medicinal ingredients and had yet to gather any treasures. If he were to gather the seeds, would it not be even more perfect?
He did just that. His true essence moved slightly, and he then used the gathering technique. A rainbow light enveloped the lotus flower.
Immediately, a notification popped up on his interface.
[Hint: The Immortal Spirit Gathering Technique has succeeded. You have obtained One-colored Green Lotus x 1, One-colored Green Lotus seed x 5]
Seeing this notification, Su Yi revealed an ecstatic expression. He had made the right bet. TheImmortal Spirit Gathering Technique only had a 50% chance of gathering seeds. As for how many seeds he could gather, it could only be said that it depended on luck.
This time, he was actually given five seeds. This was an explosion of luck.
At this time, his gaze shifted away from the seeds and landed on the lotus.
The attributes of the One-colored Green Lotus appeared directly in front of his eyes.
[Spirit herb: One-colored Green Lotus]
[Rank: Rare]
[Effect: After consuming it, the cultivation will increase by 1000. The cultivation effect will permanently increase by 5. Cultivators can only consume it once.]
Not bad. After consumption, cultivation effect permanently +5. If this were to be put on the market, the starting price would be 5 million. One could imagine how precious this item was. It could increase cultivation effect permanently.
With a flip of his hand, he took this One-colored Green Lotus.
“It’s actually a rare spirit herb!!”
When Li Mengxi saw the attributes of that one-colored green lotus, she was a little surprised. She covered her jade-like lips slightly and let out a voice of disbelief.
Then, she looked at him as if she was looking at a monster.
Being stared at like that by Li Mengxi, he felt uncomfortable all over, so he said indifferently, “why are you staring at me like that? I don’t have anything on me.”
Suddenly, Li Mengxi’s expression turned serious as she approached Su Yi and said, “fellow Daoist Su, I’ve discovered something. When I’m with you, some strange things will always happen, and then I’ll encounter unexpected gains. I even suspect that you’re the chosen one, really.”
Her gaze was solemn, and her expression was extremely solemn. She spoke to him in an extremely serious manner, as if Su Yi was the chosen one.
Li Mengxi had used such a solemn tone to talk to him about the chosen one. He immediately found it amusing and said, “fellow Daoist Li, don’t joke around. The chosen one, do you think you’re playing a game? Here, this is for you.”
As he spoke, he handed the One-colored Green Lotus in his hand to her.
Looking at the precious spirit herb, she was stunned for a moment and asked with a puzzled look on her face, “what does this mean?”
“What else could it be? It’s naturally for you.”
