Douluo Unrivaled: The Beginning Materializes the Black Abyss and White Flowers

Chapter 180 The Power of the King of a Thousand Trees

"Who laid this trap?"

Gu Yue, Xue Di, and Bing Di also recognized the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus, and their expressions instantly became very solemn.

The seven-petaled jasmine is not a gregarious plant. The fact that so many of them are gathered here clearly indicates that someone has deliberately transplanted them and provided them with ample nutrients, which has enabled them to thrive.

"Who else could it be? Who do you think could pull off such a grand gesture?" Lu Jingming pursed his lips slightly.

On the Douluo Continent, even a Title Douluo would be unable to complete such a massive and complex arrangement.

No one except the high and mighty gods possesses such power and means.

Gu Yue, Xue Di, and Bing Di were not fools. After a little thought, they quickly connected the dots to Tang San, the sea god from ten thousand years ago.

After all, at that time, only this newly ascended deity had the ability to do all this.

Moreover, the anomalies in Sunset Forest also began ten thousand years ago, and this temporal coincidence made it easy for them to lock onto their target.

"Go back!"

Lu Jingming extended his right hand, and the Holy Mark instantly lit up with a red light. The phantom of the Great Compassion Tree King slowly appeared behind him, and green light gathered into a holy halo, hovering behind Lu Jingming, exuding a powerful life aura.

At Lu Jingming's command, the previously quietly arranged Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus were moved aside, creating a wide passage.

At the same time, the emerald green poisonous mist that permeated the air was also reabsorbed into the petals of these Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers, and the flowers drooped down, showing their submission to the King of a Thousand Trees.

"Let's go, I'll show you something good!" Lu Jingming smiled slightly.

As the king of a thousand trees and the god of life, the Great Kindness Tree King has a natural ability to restrain these plant-type soul beasts.

Under the intimidating aura of the Great Compassion Tree King, these Azure Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers dared not act recklessly.

Gu Yue, Xue Di, and Bing Di all looked at Lu Jingming with astonishment in their eyes.

Gu Yue, in particular, is very knowledgeable. The knowledge and experience she inherited from the Dragon God far surpasses that of the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress.

The phantom that just appeared behind Lu Jingming was likely a projection of a deity, and judging from its aura, it was a deity who governs life.

Gu Yue was very puzzled. She knew the Goddess of Life, but what was the goddess behind Lu Jingming who was radiating a strong life force?

She had always been curious about Lu Jingming, but she could never see through him; he was unfathomable.

Lu Jingming clearly harbored many secrets unknown to others. Although Gu Yue was curious about this, she did not have any intention of finding out.

In her opinion, trying to understand everything was too tiring. She only needed to confirm that Lu Jingming had no ill intentions towards her, and that was enough.

After passing through the poisonous array formed by the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus, a sunken valley appeared before them.

The entrance to the valley was shrouded in a thick, green, poisonous fog that completely obscured the view below, making it impossible to see what was happening at the bottom of the valley.

Snow Empress gently raised her hand, and with a wave of her hand, extreme cold swept out.

Under the terrifyingly low temperature of the extreme ice, the green poisonous mist was instantly frozen, and most of it dissipated into the air.

Using the path opened up by the extreme ice, Lu Jingming and the others flew down into the valley without hesitation.

As they descended, the surrounding green poisonous fog thinned, and the scenery on the valley cliffs gradually became clearer.

On the cliff face of the valley, turquoise vines with colorful patterns began to sway, as if awakened by their arrival.

These vines, like giant pythons, swept rapidly toward Lu Jingming and the others.

The vines lashed through the air, making crackling sounds, and each swing carried a terrifying whooshing sound. In terms of power alone, it was no less than the full-force attack of an ordinary Soul King.

"Hmph!" Hyotei snorted coldly, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

She forcefully swung her five fingers out in a claw shape, and five emerald green claw rays flashed through the air like lightning, instantly striking the azure vines.

A crisp snapping sound rang out, and the vine broke in two, oozing blue sap from the broken end and emitting a pungent odor.

With Hyotei taking action, the vines couldn't get even a fraction of a distance from Lu Jingming and the others.

After descending smoothly for more than 300 meters, the group finally escaped the entanglement and harassment of the blue vines and continued to fall deeper into the valley.

Soon, as Lu Jingming and the others gradually approached the bottom of the valley, their bodies suddenly stopped, and a dreamlike scene suddenly appeared before their eyes, as if they had stepped into a fairyland.

Because the sky was shrouded in layers of colorful poisonous fog, sunlight filtered through it, making the entire valley appear as if it were illuminated by a magnificent rainbow. Every inch of space was filled with mesmerizing colors, so beautiful and breathtaking that it took one's breath away. Looking towards the distant mountain walls, they were covered with the deep blue vines that had previously attacked them.

These vines intertwine, and under the refraction of sunlight, each one shimmers with seven colors. From a distance, the entire mountain wall looks like a huge work of art made of countless colorful gems.

Although the valley is not vast, it is like a vibrant plant kingdom.

All sorts of plants grow freely here, and the vibrant colors are dazzling, as if nature has poured all the colors of the world into this small world.

Various beautiful flowers compete for attention, some as red as fire, some as pink as the sunset, and some as white as snow. They sway gently in the breeze, as if holding a silent beauty contest.

The various plants are lush and verdant, with branches laden with heavy, plump, and round fruits that exude an enticing aroma.

What's even more amazing is that many plants emit a precious light of varying intensity. These lights are either soft or dazzling, and even just by looking at them, one can easily perceive their extraordinary nature and preciousness.

In the heart of this sea of ​​plants, all the vegetation seems to surround a strange lake like stars around the moon.

This lake is like a masterpiece of nature, clearly divided into two distinct parts.

One side is icy white, with a faint white mist constantly rising from the lake surface, as if wisps of cold air are escaping from it, making people feel chilly when they look at it from afar.

On the other side was a fiery red, the light on the lake surface was slightly distorted, as if it were being baked by the high temperature, exuding an intense heat that was hard to ignore.

The red and white colors complement each other, just like two unparalleled, enormous jade stones perfectly inlaid on this land, a beauty that is breathtaking.

The air is filled with a rich, almost tangible, life force. It is through the fusion of ice and fire and the evaporation of the lake water that this vigorous life force fills every corner of the valley, making one feel as if they are in the source of life.

"This is...?" Not to mention the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress, even the well-informed Gu Yue couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly, her face showing surprise.

The vitality contained in this valley is so rich that it is in no way inferior to the life-giving lake that lies dormant within her.

Such terrifying vitality makes it a paradise for plant-type soul beasts. It's hard to imagine how many rare and precious plant-type treasures will be nurtured here.

What puzzled Gu Yue even more was that she sensed a familiar aura in this mysterious valley.

The lake, a blend of ice and fire, in particular stirred a strange sense of unease within her, as if something deep within it held a profound connection to her.

Lu Jingming's lips curled up slightly as he slowly turned his gaze to the large pink flower closest to the lake.

He recognized it at a glance as the Fragrant Silk Immortal Herb. Then, his gaze swept around, identifying the other immortal herbs one by one.

Resembling a giant cabbage, yet its entire body is fiery red like flames, the Fiery Apricot is delicate and sparse, with eight corners, its icy blue color resembling a deep glacier, the Eight-Cornered Mysterious Ice Grass looks ordinary and unremarkable, yet it resembles a peony, exuding a mysterious aura, the Heartbreak Red of Longing.

And then there's the golden, shimmering, and intoxicatingly fragrant Kira tulip.

These precious immortal herbs are all rare treasures that can only be found once in the Douluo Continent.

At the same time, the power from the World Tree's sacred mark allowed Lu Jingming to immediately perceive the awakening of the four consciousnesses.

Within this Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, there are exactly four immortal herbs that have reached the level of ten thousand years old and have developed sentience.

Although the other immortal herbs are also quite old, most of them only have instincts and have not yet developed intelligence.

"Human, how did you get in?"

Just as Lu Jingming and the other three slowly landed on the ground, the large pink petals swayed gently, and then a clear and melodious female voice, like a nightingale singing in a valley, rang out.

"Hmm? A 100,000-year-old soul beast!"

The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress's expressions froze instantly. In the Douluo Continent's understanding, only soul beasts that have cultivated for 100,000 years are usually capable of speaking human language.

"I'm not a 100,000-year-old soul beast, I'm only 10,000 years old this year." The large pink flower seemed a little unhappy, its petals swaying slightly, and then a dreamlike pink fragrance spread out.

The fragrance is delightful and refreshing, instantly uplifting the spirit and invigorating the mind.

Lu Jingming and the others were naturally not afraid that the fragrance was poisonous.

With the Black Abyss White Flower and the power of the Great Compassion Tree King, what kind of deadly poison could pose a threat to Lu Jingming?
The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress possess the power of ultimate ice, have a natural resistance to toxins, and are equally fearless.

As for Gu Yue, as the incarnation of the Silver Dragon King, how could he be troubled by mere poison?

"With the life energy here, a plant-type soul beast can grow for one year here, which is equivalent to ten years in the outside world."

Lu Jingming explained calmly.
