Chapter 267 Torture of the Fragrant Immortal Herb.
Even Wu Xuan, who was mentally prepared, was slightly stunned by the breathtaking scenery before him. The unprecedentedly fresh air, brimming with life, made him feel lighter.
The sky was completely shrouded in seven-colored poisonous clouds, making the valley appear as if it were illuminated by a rainbow.
The valley wasn't very large, but it was teeming with all sorts of plants, their colors countless. Various beautiful flowers vied for attention, and all kinds of plants were laden with fruit. Many plants even emitted varying degrees of precious light.
Even just looking at them, one could see their extraordinary nature.
Most astonishingly, nestled among these plants was a lake, clearly divided into two parts. One side was icy white, shimmering with a faint white mist, while the other was fiery red, its light slightly distorted.
Red and white, like two enormous jade stones inlaid there. The air was thick with life force, filling the entire valley with their vapors.
"Such abundant life force!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exclaimed.
Ice Emperor, however, wasn't as surprised. Instead, he surveyed the vast expanse of plants with a grave expression: "Little Wu Xuan, the life force here is too dense. These plants may have all evolved into plant-type soul beasts. Be careful."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Wu Xuan nodded slightly. He had been holding back for so long with the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye; now he finally had enough strength to seize the opportunity here.
His spiritual power spread, slowly covering the entire valley, and instantly hundreds upon hundreds of plant-type soul beasts appeared in his perception.
Compared to animal spirit beasts, plant-type spirit beasts' biggest disadvantage is their lack of agility. The vast majority of plant-type spirit beasts are immobile; their control is centered on where they take root. Of course, this excludes 100,000-year-old plant-type spirit beasts.
As Wu Xuan descended, he recalled his memories from his previous life and quickly locked onto a plant below.
It was a large, pale pink flower, leafless, with a stem nearly ten feet long and an enormous bloom, over three feet in diameter. Each petal looked like crystal, translucent and crystalline. The pale pink flower swayed gently in the mist, growing on the bank where red and white spring waters met.
Wu Xuan noticed it for two reasons: firstly, its beauty and vibrancy were striking, and it was situated precisely on the bank where the white and red waters met. Secondly, there were no other plants within a ten-foot radius of it. This made it even more conspicuous in the densely planted valley.
The plants in the valley remained calm in the face of Wu Xuan's intrusion, with none attempting to attack him. Wu Xuan slowly descended, choosing the edge of the open space surrounding the Fragrant Orchid Immortal Item as his landing point.
The moment he touched down, a faint fragrance wafted into his nostrils. Wu Xuan remained calm, allowing the aroma to enter his body and merge with it.
The fragrance was invigorating, instantly clearing his mind and making his head feel sharper. Although he had only inhaled a small amount, he felt as if his entire body had been cleansed by pure water, an indescribable sense of comfort.
Wu Xuan continued forward, but before he had taken two steps, suddenly, the large pink flower lit up.
A layer of pink light instantly appeared around it, completely enveloping the open space with a diameter of ten zhang, including Wu Xuan himself.
Wu Xuan took a deep breath, and with his hands outstretched, a verdant wind curtain instantly enveloped the Fragrant Orchid Immortal Item—his domain, which Wu Xuan preferred to call the battlefield, because within the battlefield unique to his wind element martial soul, there was no way to escape except by force. Outsiders could not even detect the existence of the battlefield.
The pink light shield quickly crumbled under the wear and tear of Wu Xuan's extreme wind.
Seeing that the fragrant Qiluo Immortal Item in front of him had not reacted at all, Wu Xuan swung his hand and delivered a powerful blow.
"Slap!"
"Ouch~! Hmm~ Hmm~! What happened?" The ethereal and fragrant fairy was instantly jolted awake by the sudden slap.
"Awake now, ethereal fairy?" Wu Xuan said calmly.
"Hey, how do you know my name!" A surprised female voice rang out, and the ethereal fairy swayed its large body, releasing a pleasant fragrance.
"Stop asking so many questions. Now I'll ask you a question. Do you have a book here?" Wu Xuan said coldly.
"Sigh! You actually know that book. You must have been sent by that person. Well, the humans who came here three or four years ago were just descendants of his sect, bringing a token to seek our help. Without the token, apart from his descendants, it seems no one could have broken through the Azure Phosphorus Poison Array outside!" The ethereal fairy's large pink flower trembled slightly, and its purple stamens rippled slightly.
"Ethereal fairy, where did you put that book? Hand it over!" Wu Xuan said.
"You're so rude! I have a name, I'm called Youyou. I'm the boss of all the immortal herbs here! You know what immortal herbs are?
They're something that should only exist in heaven, how often can one smell them in the mortal world! If you had a better attitude, maybe I'd give you a little something!" Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb shook its large flower. "You want a better attitude, huh!" Wu Xuan stepped forward, raised his hand, and gave Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb another big slap.
"Slap~!"
The entire large flower of Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb trembled from the slap.
"You...you actually dared to hit me!" The two branches below Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Herb covered the large flower above in disbelief.
"The slap I gave you when I woke you up was also mine. This is the second slap. If you don't hand over the book, I guarantee there will be a third slap, Immortal Herb~ Boss!" Wu Xuan blew on his raised hand.
The fragrant and elegant fairy was instantly enraged, her voice shrill as she said, "You despicable human! Let me tell you, you're finished! Even if you were sent by him, you won't get that book, let alone take away a single immortal herb!"
"Ah Jiao! Someone's bullying me!"
"Huh! What's going on? Where are Ah Jiao and the others?" The fragrant and elegant fairy had a bad feeling.
"Calling for help! Unfortunately, I was prepared! I originally wanted to communicate properly, not resort to violence." Wu Xuan said regretfully.
"Where is this place? What tricks have you used?" The fragrant and elegant fairy finally realized something was wrong with her surroundings, her voice trembling slightly.
"This is my domain. Shouting your lungs out won't do any good in my battlefield!" Wu Xuan chuckled and cracked his knuckles.
