I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 373 Candle Dragon Years Flower

[You speculate that Qian Mingxianzun's backup plan must require sufficient strength to activate.]

[That's why Yue Qingqing chose to enter the Blood Rain Land before leaving for the Qingyuan Realm.]

[Then she will most likely choose a place that will give her the greatest opportunity.]

You looked at the map again and again, and finally chose three places.

[The first place is called Demon Blood Ridge, and within it stands a demon tree called the Demon Blood Demon Tree.]

[One of the Twelve Realms Heavenly Demons who was killed here that year was actually an apricot tree.]

[After 100,000 years, its true form regained vitality and became a demonic tree that devoured all living things.]

[Every thousand years, this magic tree will produce ten fruits.]

[These fruits contain tremendous vitality, and each one is comparable to an elixir.]

[The second place is called the Immortal Battlefield.]

[The Immortal Battlefield was the center of the war between humans and demons in the past. Many beings at the eleventh and twelfth realms have fallen.]

[The resentment and undying fighting spirit left behind by him still remain within.]

[The battlefield is a place where countless great ways intersect, making it an ideal place for enlightenment. However, it is also fraught with danger. If one is not careful enough to leak their Qi, they could attract attacks from humans or demons, with their fighting spirit and resentment.]

[Because their avenues are intertwined, even if only one resentful thought is released, the avenues of the entire battlefield will be partially activated.]

[The intertwined avenues of dozens of eleventh and twelfth realms, even if only a portion of them were activated, would be enough to rival a True Immortal's attack.]

[Throughout history, many beings have been killed because they accidentally leaked their Qi while achieving enlightenment, becoming part of the treasures of the Immortal Battlefield.]

The third place is called Zhulong Gorge.

[The place where a twelfth-level Candle Dragon from the Candle Dragon Gorge demon race and a human immortal king perished together.]

[The Dao fruits of the two people entangled in it, transforming Zhulong Gorge into a special area.]

[A magical flower grew out of it, called the Candle Dragon Years Flower.]

This divine flower blooms once every three thousand years and withers the next day. Once it blooms, the flow of time within a ten-meter radius will slow down.

[One year passes ten feet away, while within the ten feet enveloped by the Candle Dragon Time Flower, a thousand years pass.]

[Even a Xuxian only has a lifespan of nine thousand years, so a thousand years is a long time for a Xuxian.]

[After all, the ancestors of the three paths in the Qingyuan Realm would become immortals in as little as two thousand years, or as fast as six or seven hundred years.]

[If Yue Qingqing wants to break through and become an immortal, the Candle Dragon Years Flower is definitely the best and safest choice.]

【Finally, you decided to go to Zhulong Gorge.】

[As you follow the map and are about to reach Zhulong Gorge, the sky suddenly changes.]

Woo! Woo! Woo!
A cold wind appeared out of nowhere, passing through the earth like a rolling wave, about to swallow up everything between heaven and earth.

The blood-red clouds, like ink dropped into water, instantly dyed the sky red, and an ominous aura spread from the sky above.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As thunder roared, countless scarlet raindrops fell from the blood cloud.

In Jiangchuan's perception, every drop of the blood rain falling from the sky contained terrifying power.

The blood rain poured down, hitting the earth and instantly seeping into the soil, staining the earth with a strange red color.

The smell of blood gradually spread in the air, as if it was not blood rain, but real blood.

"Jiangchuan, something is wrong." Rabbit reminded.

"It seems that the regrets left behind are not limited to those True Immortals, Immortal Kings, and Heavenly Demons."

As soon as Jiang Chuan finished speaking, there was a cracking sound and the ground suddenly cracked open.

A man wearing tattered armor, holding a broken knife, with half of his head missing and skin completely bloodless, crawled up from the ground.

Then a giant elephant, with only its skeleton left, broke out from the ground.

Then, a headless roar, a black-clothed female cultivator and many other dead bodies emerged from the ground.

In less than a moment, the ground covered by blood rain was already filled with all kinds of corpses.

Woo! Woo! Woo!
The wind howled, as if it was the wailing of a hundred thousand evil spirits, or the roar of gods and demons, interweaving with the bloody rain to form a doomsday scene.

The zombie undead spirits transformed from the corpses of humans and demons rushed towards Jiangchuan together, wanting to devour him.

Jiang Chuan sighed and said, "Even the human race of the past, after the corpses were resurrected, only the bloodthirsty instinct remained. Today I will send you on your way."

Dingxu Seal!
Jiang Chuan formed a seal with his hands, and the entire void was shaken.

It was as if thousands of fairy mists were falling into the void, and the void was shining brightly.

The moment they were enveloped by the colorless divine light, both humans and demons were like petrified and stood still.

"chaos!"

Jiang Chuan uttered two words lightly.

Two yin and yang fish, one black and one white, flew out from Jiang Chuan's body, interweaving and evolving into a Tai Chi diagram.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The moment the Tai Chi diagram was formed, chaotic energy gushed out from it, directly covering an area of ​​a thousand miles.

When the chaotic energy dissipated, all the corpses disappeared.

Shrink to an inch!

Jiang Chuan took a step forward and came to a huge gorge. The gorge was like a rift between heaven and earth, deep and mysterious.

The cliffs on both sides of the canyon seem to be the masterpieces of giant gods in ancient times. They are rugged and steep, reaching into the sky.

Countless fine textures are imprinted on the stone wall, as if they are traces left by wind, frost, rain and snow over a long period of time, or as if they are formed by countless lines.

"According to the map, the flow of time in Candle Dragon Gorge is different from that in the outside world."

Jiang Chuan's thoughts raced: "Within a day, there are four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. In the summer, if you are a descendant of the dragon clan, you will be attacked immediately. In the winter, you will attack humans."

"Chunqiu will attack specific cultivators, but the pattern has never been figured out."

[You entered Zhulong Gorge, but because you were worried about taking a step forward and ending up in a dangerous place, you didn't use the Shrinking the Earth technique.]

[It is summer in Zhulong Gorge at this time. The heat in summer is extremely hot, like a blazing immortal furnace. Even someone as strong as you can feel the scorching heat.]

[After flying for dozens of miles, cultivators from both the human and demon races begin to appear in front of you.]

[These cultivators traveled through Zhulong Gorge, searching for rare flowers and plants, as well as spiritual materials transformed from the bones of two twelfth-level cultivators.]

[Sensing your aura, these monks dodged and avoided you.]

[Five hundred miles later, the scene in your eyes suddenly changed.]

[The trees and weeds began to turn yellow at a speed visible to the naked eye.]

[You know that autumn has arrived. Once winter arrives, your energy will be detected by Zhulong Gorge, and you will be attacked by this special area of ​​Zhulong Gorge.]

[As you delve deeper, you gradually feel the extraordinary nature of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.]

You feel as if the entire avenue is filled with decay and decay, as if it will crumble and submerge you in the next moment.

After another three thousand miles, a cold wind suddenly appeared, and you knew winter was coming.

[You restrain your Qi and activate the Great Sun Divine Bell at the same time, using its power to block and conceal your own Qi.]

[Heavy snow fell from the sky, covering the entire Zhulong Gorge.]

[Accompanied by a deafening dragon roar, the heavy snow transformed into snow dragons and began to attack the human cultivators in Zhulong Gorge.]

[Each of these snow dragons possesses the strength of a Void Immortal.]

[There are now dozens, even hundreds, of snow dragons in Candle Dragon Gorge. Even someone like Night Blade Demon Lord, who has just entered the eleventh realm, would flee upon seeing the wind here.]

[You and the Great Sun Divine Bell together can mobilize the power of eight small thousand worlds.]

[Even a peak-level True Immortal might not be able to withstand the massive meteor shower you unleash.]

[Being attacked by the aftermath of the Snow Dragon is naturally not a problem.]

[Relying on the Great Sun Divine Bell, you traveled another three thousand miles.]

【A crystal flower appears in your eyes. 】

The divine flower seemed to be carved from transparent crystal, nearly two feet tall, and its stems, branches and leaves glowed with colorful light under the sunlight.

The transparent flower bud that has not yet bloomed is as big as an adult's fist.

Through the transparent petals, you can clearly see the divine light flashing within.

Jiangchuan could sense the majestic power of time in the divine flower.

What caught Jiangchuan's attention even more was the woman next to the divine flower.

The woman was tall and wore a colorful dress that seemed to be woven from the fairy mist in the sky. She was extremely gorgeous.

Her beautiful face is inlaid with two colorful eyeballs that look like magic pearls.

The long eyelashes trembled gently, like a butterfly fluttering across the water, and every blink seemed to have stars flowing, which was intoxicating.

A beautiful, noble and graceful aura emanated from her body, as if a worshipped goddess had descended here.

"Yue Qingqing? No, this feeling is a bit similar to Huang Chong, a pure-blooded fairy phoenix!"

Jiang Chuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the one guarding the Zhulong Suiyue Flower was not Yue Qingqing, but a pure-blooded fairy phoenix.

"No doubt about it, this is the Great Sun God Bell forged by the Future Constellation Honored Buddha using the Mother Gold of All Things! I never thought that I, Huang Yu'er, would actually meet the future Buddha's successor holding the Great Sun God Bell here."

Divine light bloomed in Huang Yuer's colorful eyes.

"I haven't eaten Phoenix Wings yet, so I'll give it a try today."

The rabbit muttered, "I wonder what fairy phoenix wings taste like?"

"Although the Demon Emperor issued an order at the end of the ancient times to kill the future Buddha's successor, my Phoenix clan, led by the Phoenix Mother, surrendered to the Immortal Ancestor."

Huang Yuer hurriedly took a step back, indicating that she did not want to be an enemy of Jiang Chuan.

"Besides, the Candle Dragon Time Flower should be blooming in another month. Our confrontation could easily lead to its destruction."

It is known to all the heavens and worlds that the Phoenix clan has taken refuge with the Immortal Ancestor Taixu Daojun, otherwise the Phoenix would not be called the Immortal Phoenix.

After the end of the Middle Ages, the dragon clan and the phoenix clan were basically divided into two parts.

Most dragons and phoenixes no longer recognize themselves as demons and consider themselves divine beasts.

Only a small number of dragons and phoenixes like Huang Chong still recognize their identity as demons.

"Since you won't attack me, I, Jiang, don't want to commit murder either."

Jiang Chuan said this and came to the Candle Dragon Years Flower and sat down cross-legged.

[Huang Yu'er saw that you didn't make a move, so she also sat cross-legged and began to wait for the Candle Dragon Years Flower to bloom.]

[One month later, the Candle Dragon Years Flower blooms.]
