Chapter 1133 Soul Calming Flower



Lin Xun could tell from just a glance.

What surprised him was that the flower seemed even more mystical than the king-grade herbs he had seen in the outside world. When it swayed, strands of crimson essence spew out from the stamen like a small waterfall.

Lin Xun’s figure flashed as he approached the flower.

The waterfall was like a white dragon diving down the cliff. On the cliff wall, there was an ancient, crimson pine tree coiling like another dragon.

The scarlet king-grade flower was rooted in a rock crevice, drawing in the aeth qi in the air and emitting a refreshing fragrance.

Lin Xun couldn’t help but marvel at the fact that the aeth qi here was so rich it was like thick fog. Every breath he inhaled felt so comfortable as if he was immersed in a clear spring, making his mind refreshed and relaxed.

When he moved closer, he headed towards the crimson pine tree that was not far away from the flower instead.

Crack!

A violent snapping sound resounded, and the crimson pine let out a pained scream before it speedily transformed into a man dressed in black.

His skin was dark green, with a totem imprinted on his forehead. He was tall and robust. This man was an elite from the Earthly Wood Clan.

“The aeth qi around this cliff is all being drawn by this king-grade flower, so other grasses and trees cannot survive here at all… Fellow cultivator, your camouflage is too shoddy,” commented Lin Xun casually.

Boom!

The man jumped to action without a word. A bright-green, pine-patterned sword swept out from his palm and slashed toward Lin Xun.

As soon as the sword appeared, sword qi surged out like furious waves and shattered the air with a terrifying pressure.

However, Lin Xun didn’t spare it a glance and snapped his fingers. The sword qi exploded with a bang, and the sword whimpered as it was flicked away like a dead snake.

In turn, the man looked like he had been struck by lightning, his mouth and nose spurting blood.

He immediately tried to escape, but Lin Xun made a pressing gesture with his hand, confining the man in place as he said, “If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn’t be alive now.”

Hearing this, the man’s expression flickered. He said, “What do you want to know?”

This was a smart man!

Lin Xun asked straight out, “You clearly arrived a long time ago, so why didn’t you pick the herb and leave instead of waiting here?”

“You will let me go if I tell you?” asked the man.

Lin Xun nodded.

“Look over there.” The man pointed at the root system of the king-grade flower that resided in the crevice.

It was covered in dazzling red mist, but when one looked closely, they would see transparent, gravel-like worms gulping down the refined red mist spewed out from the flower.

Lin Xun squinted his eyes. There were about a dozen of these bugs, who were incredibly tiny and concealed by the haze. It was easy for a cultivator to overlook them with the king-grade herb taking all of their attention!

“Someone had already discovered this flower before I came here, but when they tried to pick it, it suddenly struggled violently and shrieked mournfully. Then, in just a few breaths, that person was completely devoured, not even leaving behind any bones,” answered the man solemnly with apprehension on his face.

This was precisely why he hadn’t made his move.

To the man’s surprise, Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged after learning of all this. He said calmly, “I see. You can go now.”

“You…are not worried that I will retaliate in the future?” The man was stunned.

“If I worry about being retaliated against every day, then why would I even set foot on the path of cultivation?” Lin Xun glanced at him.

“You have my thanks!” The man clasped his fist and left the scene.

On the way, he kept thinking about what had just happened, frowning as he tried to remember something. When it finally clicked, he slapped his forehead, and his expression drastically changed.

No wonder he looks familiar, he’s Demon God Lin!

Upon this conclusion, the man broke into a cold sweat and quickened his pace to leave as fast as possible.

In front of the cliff wall, Lin Xun scrutinized the king-grade herb. He did not pick it but casually said, “Aren’t you guys going to leave as well?”

The area was silent as no one responded, making it feel as if he was talking to himself.

Boom!

Lin Xun tapped his fingers in the air, and the void below the waterfall collapsed violently. A huge rock burst into pieces, from the ruins of which three men and one woman fled out.

“Demon God Lin, we targeted this king-grade flower first!”

These four were obviously from the same sect. The speaker, a white-robed youth with a gloomy face, was glaring at Lin Xun angrily.

“What nonsense. Why don’t you say that this Burning Immortal World was also targeted by you guys first?” Lin Xun coldly retorted.

“Demon God Lin, you are all alone in this Burning Immortal World. That mysterious woman can’t save you, so listen to my advice and keep a low profile, or the Supreme Realm will be your grave,” said another man arrogantly.

“That’s right. Do you still think that this is the outside world? The only ones worthy of seizing the opportunistic fortunes are people like us who are heirs from ancient dao lineages!”

“Let me tell you, I’m from Primordial God Pavilion, and my senior brother Shen Nantian will be here soon!”

These heirs from the Primordial God Pavilion were obviously scared of Lin Xun, but their attitude was conceited, and their words carried undisguised threats.

And they looked especially proud when mentioning the name Shen Nantian.

“Shen Nantian? Never heard of him,” Lin Xun dismissed and his voice turned cold, “I’ve already given you a chance. If you still refuse to leave, don’t blame me for being merciless!”

“You…”

The four faces were clouded with anger.

“I’ve long heard that Demon God Lin is superb in battle. Let’s see if you’re really as powerful as the rumors say!” declared the white-robed youth.

He took in a deep breath, his eyes exuding killing intent. It was clear that he was not willing to leave just like that. The king-grade herb was extremely mystical and could count as a decent fortune.

However, he had just taken a step forward when Lin Xun sent him flying ten feet with a palm strike. He hit the ground with a heavy thud and coughed up blood non-stop.

The other three were dumbfounded. They simply had not expected that their companion would be so useless, being sent flying with a casual strike without the power to even resist.

“Scram!” Lin Xun gave them a last chance as his patience had been worn out.

“Just you wait! None of those who offend our Primordial God Pavilion will have a good ending!”

In the end, the four left with their tails between their legs, but not without leaving some feeble threatening words.

“What a bunch of losers. Sooner or later they’ll be eliminated.” Scoffing, Lin Xun couldn\'t care less about them. He redirected his gaze to the king-grade herb and mumbled with a sigh, “What luck, but I don’t know whether it’s my luck or the little guy…”

And then, Little Silver appeared in the air, his arms crossed and his handsome little face prideful. “Master, did you encounter another problem that you can’t solve? As I’ve told you long ago, I will never help you fight useless trash.”

Lin Xun’s lips twitched. This little fellow is really as arrogant as ever!

He pointed at the king-grade flower. “If you don’t want it, then I’ll take it.”

Little Silver was stunned. Then, his eyes shone brightly, and he cheered loudly, no longer keeping his aloof appearance but instead looking like an actual child.

He opened his mouth and sucked in violently.

Instantly, the dozen or so small transparent worms all over the root of the flower squirmed before they were swept up and sucked into Little Silver’s mouth, swallowed whole by him.

Little Silver revealed an intoxicated smile.

Lin Xun couldn’t hold back his question, “They were all your kind. And you just…ate them just like that?”

Indeed, those little worms had been God Devourer Insects!

In the outside world, they were virtually extinct except for Little Silver, but here they existed in the Realm of the Supreme.

Even Lin Xun had been shocked when he had first seen them on the roots of the flower. He had to admit that the Supreme Realm was truly miraculous.

Little Silver shook his head and explained, “No, I am royal, while they have not developed intelligence. They can only be reduced to food and assist me in my transformation and evolution. If I never possessed intelligence, then I would have become food as well. This is the nature of the God Devouring Insect lineage.”

Lin Xun was enlightened.

“This is......” When Little Silver turned his gaze to the king-grade herb, his eyes widened in disbelief. “Soul Calming Flower?”

Whoosh!

The same time his words echoed, Little Silver had already rushed to the flower, but not to devour it. Instead, he uprooted the flower and carefully put it away with joy all over his face.

Lin Xun let out a dry cough.

Little Silver was startled before he quickly said with a solemn expression, “Thank you for granting me this great opportunity, Master. With this Soul Calming Flower, I will have one more sliver of certainty when I transform into a King! I will definitely go through fire and water to carry out any order you give me!”

Only upon hearing this was Lin Xun satisfied. One should always be grateful, and it was not good to be lofty and arrogant all the time!

Then, he asked curiously, “One Soul Calming Flower only increases a sliver of certainty?”

Little Silver’s path of transformation was different from a cultivator’s path of cultivation. At this moment, he was only a larva with the qualification to become a King one day.

But even then, he was already extremely powerful!

If he could metamorphose into an insect King, it would be possible for him to kill an old monster of the King stage.

The most important thing was that the God Devouring Insects’ attacks were extremely hard to defend against!

Little Silver nodded. “If master can help me collect more Soul Calming Flowers, then I’ll have a greater certainty when I advance to the King stage.”

Lin Xun was angry. “You think king-grade herbs are cabbages that you can find everywhere?”

Little Silver swept his gaze around and said, “Master, anything is possible in the Realm of the Supreme. In my memories, there is information on this realm, but it’s been sealed and can only be accessed when I reach the King stage.”

Lin Xun was surprised.

Toady is an ancient freak, could Little Silver be one as well?

It’s really possible!

After all, the Astral Imperial Clan’s Shaohao said that the God Devouring Insects should have been extinct in the ancient era.

But Little Silver lives to this time, and his memories are sealed, almost the same situation as Toady. There’s no difference between this and an ancient freak.

In the end, Lin Xun agreed to help Little Silver to keep an eye out for Soul Calming Flowers, and only then did the little guy happily return to his sea of consciousness, with a much more intimate attitude than before. Of course, this still didn’t change his aloof and arrogant nature.

“I must head to Burning Immortal Ancient City as soon as possible…”

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xun discarded distracting thoughts and decided to put behind his plan of searching for fortunes in order to meet up with Toady and A’lu in the Burning Immortal Ancient City.

Although cultivators could only enter the Supreme Realm when they were under the King stage, it was still possible to advance to the King stage inside!

Right now, Lin Xun was not afraid to compete with any of his peers, but once any of them stepped into the King stage before him – even if it wasn’t the Supreme King stage, they would definitely still pose a great threat!
