The Primordial Law

Chapter 497 The Birth of the Immortal Flower

"Wow!"

Li Weiyi withdrew the Purple Heaven Thunder Seal, entered the sea, and carried the "severely injured" Zuoqiu Hongting to the surface.

The Purple Heaven Thunder Seal was as large as a millstone, with ancient engravings. Thick thunderclouds hung above his head, and coupled with the solemnity of the governor's official robes, his aura was extraordinary.

Dozens of feet away, Ye Cang's eyes blazed like two fiery balls, and the heavy sword in his hand was a thousand-character weapon. All the scriptures erupted, covering the blade and his arms, while his blood and magical energy surged within him.

Three mother-and-child swords, each of the seventh-grade hundred-character weapon level, surrounded his body, emitting sharp light.

Although a large number of senior experts from Zuoqiu Sect and the imperial court are still far away, at least ten Dao Heart Manifestations have already pressed down on Ye Cang.

If he dares to raise his knife against Li Weiyi, he will surely suffer the same fate as Ye Baiyue.

Ye Cang had never felt so frustrated. He was filled with murderous intent, but he could only restrain himself.

"Today I have truly experienced the methods of you Lingxiao Realm martial artists! This score will definitely be settled."

Seeing that a large number of experts from the Lingxiao Realm were getting closer, Ye Cang rushed to the seabed, found Ye Baiyue's remains, and put them into his bag.

Li Weiyi looked at Ye Cang, who was filled with grief and indignation: "If you leave the East Sea immediately, you will still have a chance to live. If you continue to associate with Fu Wenyan, your death is not far off."

Ye Cang gave him a cold stare before heading towards Fu Wenyan, Meng Hualong, and the others.

Tai Shiyu, stepping on runes, rushed over, staring at Ye Cang's back, and sighed: "He actually held back, what powerful self-control. You have to be careful of such a person, he will definitely be watching you at all times, and once you are in trouble or show a weakness, he will definitely give you a fatal blow."

Li Weiyi was neither overconfident nor arrogant, and he took every martial artist of the Ninth Heaven seriously: "The five members of Zong Sheng Xuehai, when combined, can already hunt down the young emperors of the Ninth Heaven, posing a great threat. I originally wanted to take this opportunity to cut off half of their strength, but unfortunately, none of these people are easy to deal with, and their reason can suppress their emotions."

“I still think Fu Wenyan is the biggest threat. Once he breaks through, he will become a top-tier expert,” Tai Shiyu said.

Li Weiyi nodded, looked at Zuoqiu Hongting in his arms, and then looked out at the distant sea, at the powerful figures collecting the Qi of the Six-Clawed Immortal Dragon.

The martial arts practitioners from nearby islands and reefs continued to converge there.

There have been deaths and injuries in the fighting.

The demon race, the human race, the rice people, and various other forces are entangled in conflicts and hatred, and no one will show mercy.

Li Weiyi brought Zuoqiu Hongting back to the Jiuli tribe's ship.

A moment later, she used a disguise technique to transform into a willow tree, and reappeared on the deck with Li Weiyi. They announced to the public that Zuoqiu Hongting was recuperating on the ship.

In the distant sea, the aura of the six-clawed immortal dragon gradually disappeared, being absorbed by martial artists from all sides.

Li Weiyi felt no regret, as the amount of six-clawed immortal dragon energy dissipating at this moment was not much. For the past few months, a small amount had been dissipating from the seabed every day.

Cang Li, Li Ling, Yin Jiu, Yin Shiyi, and other young martial artists stood on the deck behind the two, not participating in the competition.

Those who dare to go to that sea area are at least experts at the seventh level of the Heavenly Realm.

"The celestial phenomena are changing."

Zuoqiu Hongting sensed something, raised her eyes, and looked at the black clouds rushing across the sky. An inexplicable aura enveloped the entire deep sea.

The seawater turned jet black.

The waves rolled and surged, threatening to engulf Fengshi Reef, which was ten miles away.

Erfeng's thoughts reached Li Weiyi's ears: "The Immortal-Seeking Pearl is fluctuating."

"Oh!"

In the next instant, Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting transformed into two streaks of light, flew off the ship, and quickly appeared on the dark red Phoenix Reef.

Fengshi Reef is mainly composed of rocks and is about 100 meters in diameter.

The hundreds-of-meters-tall bronze pillar that locks the dragon stands in the center of the island reef. It is seven or eight meters in diameter and its origin is unknown. It does not seem to have been forged by human hands and exudes an awe-inspiring power.

In this sea area, only nine islands and reefs are safe, and they are covered with profound arrays inscribed by the Holy Spirit King Nian Shi.

In other places, there is a risk of collapse or an outbreak of danger that martial artists at the Dao Seed Realm cannot withstand.

Thirty miles away, a brilliant light appeared in the sea, shifting between red, blue, and gold. Each change caused the color of the entire sea to change accordingly.

Red as a sea of ​​fire, blue as a gemstone, gold as molten iron.

A delicate fragrance drifted on the wind to Fengshi Reef.

Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting felt as if their entire bodies were being cleansed simply by breathing.

Dark clouds hung low, and waves crashed against the sky.

"Wow!"

On the distant sea, the legendary mirage of Dragon City appeared.

Mirages are illusory.

The outline of Longcheng is like a veil or mist, yet it is extremely magnificent and mysterious.

The city walls were as high as mountains, but they were badly damaged, with many parts collapsed and reduced to ruins. Dragon bones were scattered everywhere, and a dragon head the size of a hill had smashed a crater in one corner of the city. A blood-red river flowed eternally, its origin and destination unknown.

It's so real, like there really is such a place in the world, an ancient city that has been destroyed and abandoned, the sense of historical vicissitudes is overwhelming.

Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting simultaneously used their Heavenly Eyes to see through the mirage. In the illusory Dragon City, they saw a strange medicinal plant, about a foot tall.

It has no leaves, only a bright and shiny flower at the top, swaying in the wind.

All three petals are heart-shaped.

They emit three colors: red, blue, and gold.

"Three colors of flowers, heart-shaped, this...this is the flower of immortality from mythology."

Zuoqiu Hongting, a woman of extensive reading, possessed knowledge comparable to that of old scholars who had devoted their lives to studying. She recognized the exotic medicine in the mirage of Longcheng. The fragrance of the immortal flower, which traveled hundreds of miles and whose light illuminated the entire sea, was not part of the mirage but a real phenomenon.

"In the era before the immortal dragon veins dried up, living beings needed to cultivate an immortal body in order to join the most prestigious immortal sects. For martial artists who could not cultivate an immortal body, the only chance to change their fate was to find the Flower of Immortality."

"That's great! With the talent of an ordinary chief disciple like myself, I will definitely be able to cultivate the Longevity Body after consuming the Longevity Flower. After entering the Longevity Realm, my talent will be able to advance even further, making me comparable to a top-tier chief disciple."

"Even in ancient religions like the Rice Palace and the Crossing the Calamity Temple, only one person can achieve the Longevity Body every few decades, and it is often only the true lineage that can achieve it."

"The excavation of the ancient immortal dragon's remains indeed revealed an extraordinary opportunity."

……

Some elders among martial arts practitioners, demon beasts, and rice people also recognized the Longevity Flower.

Their eyes were frighteningly red as they rushed into Dragon City Mirage at top speed.

"My lifespan is coming to an end. Only by consuming the Longevity Flower and cultivating the Longevity Body can I break the Longevity Lock and enter the Longevity Realm. Today, I will fight to the death with anyone who dares to challenge me."

An old man, emaciated and bald, emerged from the water, looking as if he had crawled out of a coffin. His body was crackling with lightning, and he moved with incredible speed.

He is the eldest of the ten elders of the Thunderclap Sect, and like Zhu Qishi, he is already 140 years old.

He cultivated his physical body to the 80th level of the Life Body. After that, no matter how much time he spent, he could not advance any further.

"You want to break through to immortality and extend your lifespan by another 60 years. As for me, I am a top-tier master. If I cultivate the Longevity Body and enter the Longevity Realm, I will be able to compete with those young emperors of the past and never have to bow my head again."

Meng Hualong, the strongest in Zongsheng Academy, was determined to obtain the Longevity Flower. He used the fourth-level technique, "Dragon Capturing Hand," to send the Grand Elder of Leixiao Sect flying.

On the misty ground of Mirage Dragon City, a crater several meters in size, resembling a clawed dragon, appeared.

Princess Dengfeng's true form appeared as a white jellyfish cloud, tens of feet in size, as beautiful as gauze and light. Enveloped in array patterns and runes, she flew over the top of Meng Hua's dragon head and rapidly approached the Longevity Flower.

The Turtle Scholar followed closely on the ground, helping her clear out the pursuers.

Li Weiyi and Zuoqiu Hongting used a teleportation talisman to travel, and after entering the Mirage Dragon City through a gap in the city wall, they discovered that although the Dragon City was an illusory state like light and mist, it had a real sense of obstruction.

All the buildings will ripple when touched, deterring fingers from probing.

Li Weiyi was shocked. The mirage before him must have been projected from somewhere. Even the enormous dragon bones on the ground, though merely blurred shadows, exuded a real sense of awe, making one's soul tremble.

"boom!"

"Boom!"

……

Princess Dengfeng, Zhu Qishier Chongtian, Turtle Scholar, Tang Zhan, Meng Hualong, Fu Wenyan, Ye Cang, the Grand Elder of Leixiao Sect... more than ten top experts were engaged in a chaotic battle in Mirage Dragon City.

Anyone who dares to approach the Everlasting Flower will be attacked by everyone else.

In such a terrifying battlefield, ordinary Ninth Heaven martial artists and Nine Star Spiritual Masters would face an extremely high risk of death if they were to get involved.

Princess Dengfeng, wielding a flying sword and the governor's seal she had seized from Fu Wenyan, suppressed all the powerful figures. Each time she unleashed her magical weapon, she sent two or three people flying.

"The remains of the ancient immortal dragon have not yet been unearthed, so there must be more than one Longevity Flower, and more will appear. If we join forces, and you help me today, once I break through to the ninth level of the cultivation realm and cultivate the Longevity Body, I will definitely help each of you to pick one Longevity Flower. I swear in the name of the Sage!" Fu Wenyan said.

Zong Sheng Xue Hai, including the four masters including Fu Wenyan, gathered together. They each unleashed their strongest magical weapons and advanced with unstoppable momentum, successively injuring Gui Shusheng, Tang Zhan, the Grand Elder of Lei Xiao Zong, and others.

Even Zhu Qishi's seventy-two heavens couldn't stop the four of them working together.

"Wow!"

Princess Lantern Phoenix's shadow clone projected from the jellyfish cloud and landed next to the Everlasting Flower.

Even she, with a hint of excited joy in her eyes and a slight tremor, reached out to pick it.

"Boom!"

A massive black dragon tore through the land of Mirage Dragon City and emerged from the seabed.

Its head was as large as a house, its scales were as big as black iron fans, its eyes emitted a light as bright as the sun and moon, and its aura was extremely powerful.

The mirage collapsed in large sections, turning into a hazy light.

The avatars of the Longevity Flower and Princess Lantern Phoenix were sent flying into the sky by the head of the Black Dragon.

"Ow!"

The black dragon let out a roar like a dragon's cry and spat out a jet of water, repelling the four people from Zong Shengxuehai.

The enormous dragon's body contracted and solidified into a human form.

It was Prince Mingjiao who arrived.

He was eight feet tall, with a pair of dragon ears, wearing black armor, his body shrouded in mist, and his long hair flowing freely, exuding an unparalleled domineering aura. With a clenched claw, he blasted Princess Lantern Phoenix's illusory clone apart with a "bang."

Then, he reached out and collected the Longevity Flower.

In mid-air, Princess Lantern Phoenix let out a delicate shout, controlling her flying sword and the governor's seal to release a large amount of scriptures, which were then used to suppress Prince Nether Dragon.

To her, anyone could take the Flower of Immortality, but not the Prince of the Underworld.

Prince Mingjiao didn't turn around at all. He activated his black armor, and more than seven thousand dragon-shaped scriptures burst forth, like ten thousand dragons running, to block the flying swords and the governor's seal behind him.

He extended his five fingers, the tips of which were less than a foot away from the Everlasting Flower, and he was about to succeed.

"Stop arguing! The Flower of Immortality is a secret that we must obtain; whoever tries to take it will die."

The moment Sheng Wulian's voice rang out, his body appeared opposite the Nether Dragon Prince, as if manifesting out of thin air. The white light emanating from his body collided with the Nether Mist surrounding the Nether Dragon Prince.

A mile away, Li Weiyi realized it was too late and had no choice but to take out the Thousand-Character Bow.
