NOVPUB"It seems so," someone nodded blankly.
"Who was that just now?"
"Don’t know, but he didn’t seem to touch any of these treasures."
As the last voice fell, everyone exchanged glances.
Immediately after, a thunderous cheer erupted.
The crowd surged toward the flower garden.
"Don’t fight over it, let’s share the treasures equally," a rational person shouted.
"Share equally? Forget it, finders keepers."
All the people rushed toward the flower garden.
The masses went forth in force, pushing through the bushes surrounding the garden.
The sight of the Mysterious Medicines made everyone’s hearts bloom with joy.
Even the beating of their hearts quickened.
"Cosmos Tier Mysterious Medicine, Immortal Flower,
Universe Tier Mysterious Medicine, Eternity Vein,
.........."
There were countless Mysterious Medicines here, and as everyone rushed into the garden, scrambling to pick the Mysterious Medicines.
At that moment, the odd Bauhinia Flower at the very center began to transform.
Its four petals originally had four expressions.
Joy, anger, sorrow, resentment.
Normally, three of those expressions remained hidden.
Only the one representing resentment served as the Bauhinia Flower’s main expression.
But now, as more and more people flooded in,
black fog began to spread around the Bauhinia Flower.
The expression of resentment slowly shifted toward anger.
The surrounding black fog grew denser, and faint screams could be heard emanating from it.
The people grabbing for the Mysterious Medicines had gone mad.
They even fought fiercely with each other, completely ignoring the change in the flower.
......
When the surrounding black fog thickened to a certain level,
a sharp and cruel scream rang out with a bang.
Then the sky was covered in black fog.
The entire garden was enshrouded in it.
Those touched by the black fog screamed in agony.
The black fog was like sulfuric acid, corroding and dissolving everyone it touched,
from the flesh to the bones.
Almost nothing was left.
None in the garden could escape, and as the black fog enveloped them, they were completely dispersed within it.
After a long while, the black fog began to retract.
It gathered once again around the Bauhinia Flower.
The garden was silent, the people from before had long since vanished.
Xu Zimei witnessed it all from a distance.
The touch-of-death black fog was mysterious indeed.
He stepped through the air towards the edge of the garden.
The petals returned to calm, with the one representing resentment once again becoming the main expression.
Xu Zimei summoned the puppet of Mad Blood Old Demon.
He sent it into the middle of the garden to investigate.
The Mad Blood Old Demon, surrounded by Holy Power, strutted into the garden with overwhelming presence.
With a "boom," a radiance of Spiritual Energy Refinement Light gathered around him.
After he entered the garden,
the Bauhinia Flower let out a piercing shriek, followed by the petal representing anger lighting up.
In the black fog, countless faces appeared.
All of them with bulging veins and bared teeth looked extremely angry.
Billowing black clouds filled the sky above, all converging on the Mad Blood Old Demon.
But the Mad Blood Old Demon did not show weakness; the blood-colored Changhe surged mightily behind him.
In these rivers, the waves beat against the shores, bloody and turbid.
It seems they contain countless horrors.
Only a "boom" was heard.
An explosion erupted in the black mist, as the might of the Mad Blood Old Demon’s Saint Vein Realm spread out.
He forcibly broke through the bizarre Bauhinia Flower’s blockade.
He stepped into the void and arrived in front of the Bauhinia Flower.
With both hands, he grasped the root of the petals and pulled with all his might.
He wanted to uproot the petals entirely.
However, at this moment, it seemed as if the petals were connected to the earth itself.
No matter how hard the Mad Blood Old Demon tried, he couldn’t move the Bauhinia Flower an inch.
His face turned red with effort, and after struggling for a long time, he eventually retreated warily to one side.
Xu Zimei watched from the side with a slight frown. 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝔠𝔬𝖒
This flower seemed to be still in its youth, too strong for even a martial artist to kill.
But to obtain it seems beyond the reach of man!
...
At that moment, the petals of the bizarre Bauhinia Flower began to tremble.
The furious leaves began to change to joy.
The black mist surrounding the Bauhinia Flower gradually dissipated, giving way to plumes of red mist.
This red mist carried a bloody scent, smelling even more like fresh blood.
Unlike the corrosive black mist, this red mist seemed to have a hallucinogenic effect.
When the Mad Blood Old Demon was enveloped in the red mist, he just stood there motionless.
Xu Zimei frowned slightly, unable to see what the Mad Blood Old Demon was experiencing.
But at this moment, the Mad Blood Old Demon had lost control and was not under his own command.
Not long after, the red mist began to dissipate, and the Mad Blood Old Demon became unusually calm.
He slowly turned around, his eyes turning a deep blood red.
At that moment, he recklessly charged towards Xu Zimei.
...
"Being controlled in return, huh," Xu Zimei shook his head slightly.
A beastly roar came from the side, as the massive body of Chaos descended.
With a slap, Chaos suppressed the Mad Blood Old Demon beneath it.
Despite the Mad Blood Old Demon’s frantic struggle, it was to no avail.
"Master, let me try," Chaos spoke in a low voice.
"Hmm, you hold it down, but don’t touch it," Xu Zimei said.
"I want to test my hypothesis."
The huge body of Chaos leaped into the flowerbed, with immense Immortal Qi swirling around it.
At that moment, its massive wings unfolded behind it, stirring up an endless storm towards the bizarre Bauhinia Flower.
The storm swept over, and the sky was filled with clouds swirling.
The Bauhinia Flower, however, remained unflustered.
Its two petals revived at the same time, with the black and red mists converging together, sweeping toward Chaos.
"Keep it engaged," Xu Zimei shouted from outside the flowerbed.
At that moment, his aura surged mightily, with his True Fate Emergence manifesting behind him.
A cerulean blue planet slowly rose into the air.
Chaos snorted coldly, as a profound and boundless black hole appeared at its abdomen.
This was its innate divine skill.
The edges of the black hole were shrouded in fierce fire and thunderbolts.
At that moment, a beam of heavenly light shot out from the black hole, aiming to clear the mist ahead.
Meanwhile, behind Xu Zimei, the True Fate World made a thunderous noise.
Countless branches slowly spread out from the cerulean blue planet.
At this moment, their speed was boundless.
They directly entwined around the bizarre Bauhinia Flower at the center of the flowerbed, attempting to uproot it.
These branches were from the Tree of Life within Xu Zimei’s True Fate World.
Rooted in the Divine Continent, they wielded supreme power as they tried to uproot the bizarre Bauhinia Flower.
At this moment, as these branches strained together,
the body of the Bauhinia Flower began to shake, marking its first moment of panic.
