Chapter 762 - 762 The Flower of Hell and the Hellfire
762 The Flower of Hell and the Hellfire
Li Xiang did not care about any of this. He was completely focused on fishing for Yin corpses.
There weren’t many opportunities to rapidly strengthen the Tower of Stars. If he missed this opportunity, where would he find another? With a large number of Yin corpses, the Primal Chaos space and the space within the tower expanded.
Unknowingly, the internal space had already reached an astonishing radius of 4,500 kilometers. This kind of expansion was like a change of heaven and earth for the tower. The sky was higher, the earth was thicker, and the barrier between heaven and earth was tougher. Heaven and earth vitality contained in it was more abundant, and the World Laws were more complete. Some of the spaces in the tower that was suitable for planting had already grown all sorts of flowers and trees.
The space within the tower was the real world but not an illusionary world. Each of the sky-opening divine weapons was shining with divine light. World Laws naturally gathered and intertwined. Heaven and Earth Origin also naturally formed and gathered, nourishing the sky-opening divine weapons.
The scenery on both sides of the Netherworld River was very strange.
There were all sorts of strange Yin corpses. He had even encountered the corpse of the Green Phoenix. He would not let such a Yin corpse go for sure. One was enough to expand the space in the tower on the spot.
For some unknown reason, these corpses had appeared in the Netherworld River.
Perhaps these creatures had died in battle countless years ago and then sank to the bottom of the Netherworld River. After countless years, they had finally returned to the surface.
Time passed quietly. It was as if they couldn’t feel the passage of time here, and they didn’t know how long they had been drifting. However, the size of the Tower of Stars had unknowingly increased to a radius of 5,000 kilometers. One could only imagine the number of Yin corpses collected along the way and the amount of energy it had obtained.
“Look! What’s that?”
Just as everyone was standing on the raft in fear, Song Yuqing suddenly pointed in the direction of the shore in surprise and exclaimed.
Not far from the shore, there was a huge gate.
It was a faintly discernible city gate, and all kinds of hideous images appeared around it. Malicious ghosts were running amuck, blood-thirsty Asuras, demons, and dark beasts. The door exuded an extremely terrifying aura, causing one to involuntarily feel fear.
“That’s the gate of hell!” said the spirit raftman calmly.
The gate of hell was a decorated archway with the words “Gate of Hell” written on it. Legend had it that it was the second checkpoint for the dead to report to the Netherworld. On both sides, Ghost Kings and ghosts were guarding.
One needed a pass to enter and exit this place.
The first time a dead soul came here was led by a messenger of death or brought by a spirit raftman ferryman, so it did not need a pass. However, if it wanted to leave, it would need a pass. Otherwise, the gate of hell would not allow it.
This was the rule, the rule of the underworld.
“Alright, the gate of hell has appeared. It’s time for you to leave. However, whether you can leave or not will depend on you. Whether you leave alive or die and stay here will depend on your fortune. You guys can go!”
After the spirit raftman finished speaking, he waved the bamboo shoots in his hand. Li Xiang and the others were bound by an invisible force and directly moved to the shore.
“We’re here already! What a powerful raftman! I can’t even resist him.” Wushuang Ghost revealed a shocked expression.
“We’re ashore! But how are we going to get to the gate of hell?”
“What a beautiful flower!”
At this moment, Song Yuqing’s eyes lit up as she looked at the side.
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice and found a strange flower in full bloom on the shore. It was breathtakingly beautiful and exuded brilliant colors.
“That’s the Lycorisradiata!” When Jiang Ni saw this, his face was filled with shock.
A bunch of red flowers was shining with a strange light. They were blooming at an astonishing speed as if they had been awakened from sleep.
“The Lycorisradiata. When the flower blooms, the leaves will never be seen. The flower and the leaves will never meet. It’s the legendary Flower of Hell!
Li Xiang’s eyes couldn’t help but reveal a trace of surprise.
This was a legendary strange flower that only existed in the Netherworld.
“It’s said that the Lycorisradiata is a flower that bloomed on the other side of the River of Forgetfulness in the Netherworld, as bright and red as blood. There were flowers but no leaves. When one’s soul passes through the River of Forgetfulness, one will forget everything that happened when they were alive. Everything that had happened was left on the other shore and bloomed into beautiful flowers, hence the name Lycorisradiata,” Jiang Ni took a deep breath and said while looking at the bright flowers in front of him.
Most of the legends could not be verified, but the Lycorisradiata only bloomed in the Netherworld. This was a fact.
In any case, it was impossible to see the Lycorisradiata in the mortal world. It only grew in the extreme Yin places of the Netherworld.
“The Lycorisradiata is a legendary wondrous flower that has all sorts of wondrous effects. I once obtained an ancient pill recipe called the Lycorisradiata Pill. The main ingredient to refine this pill is Lycorisradiata. Without Lycorisradiata, the pill can’t be made no matter how many other medicinal herbs one has. According to the pill recipe, a Lycorisradiata Pill is enough to make one instantly reach the realm of large success regardless of whether one was in the mythical realm or the divine realm. It can allow one to quickly increase one’s cultivation level without any hidden dangers. It’s an extremely magical pill that can allow one to enter the mysterious Nirvana realm after taking it. ”
Li Tianci’s eyes lit up when he saw the changes.
“Are you an alchemist?” Li Xiang looked at Li Tianci in surprise.
“I only have a little bit of experience. I can still make some basic medicinal pills, but the success rate of making higher-grade is very low.”
Li Tianci laughed proudly as if he was very confident in his alchemy skills. He had cultivated from scratch, step by step. It was not easy for him to have some achievements in alchemy. His talent in alchemy must be pretty good. He believed that as long as he was given time, he would have some achievements in the refinement path.
When he had obtained the pill formula, he had thought that he would never be able to refine it in his lifetime. Now that he saw the Lycorisradiata, he felt that hope was right in front of him.
After saying this, he no longer hesitated. He quickly stepped forward, took out a small shovel, and carefully dug into a Lycorisradiata.
“Don’t touch the Lycorisradiata!” Jiang Ni immediately stopped him.
However, it was too late. Li Tianci only had eyes for the beautiful Lycorisradiata but nothing else. The herb shovel had already dug the soil.
Shua!
Just as the herb shovel touched the flower, a bright flame-like light bloomed from the flower, enveloping Li Tianci.
At the same time, terrifying crimson flames completely covered his entire body, setting him on fire.
The fire was very spooky. Li Tianci felt the fire and wanted to put it out. However, he realized that his body was burning from top to bottom, and from inside to outside. He couldn’t resist it at all. His body was burning fiercely like dry firewood.
“No…”
