Chapter 892: Flower Alluring Slave
Chapter 892: Flower Alluring Slave
After plucking the two Yin Nu flowers, two white orbs of light quietly appeared in the places where they were picked.
The orbs flickered slightly, as if enticing Lu Chen to reach out and touch them.
Holding his breath, Lu Chen extended his hand and gently touched one of the orbs.
In an instant, countless specks of light burst forth like fireworks, soaring into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, they condensed into a slender river of light that flowed into Lu Chen's body.
At the same time, a thought flashed through his mind.
You have harvested a sixth-grade Yin Nu flower and obtained a special treasure, the Flower Alluring Slave.
As the thought flashed through his mind, a pale white flower bud, the size of a fist, appeared before Lu Chen.
The flower bud seemed on the verge of blooming, its petals as thin as cicada wings, adorned with nearly transparent veins.
At the very center of the flower bud lay a tiny, delicate flower sprite, no more than an inch long, with transparent four wings, eyes closed as if in a deep slumber, resembling a princess, and incredibly endearing.
"What is this Flower Alluring Slave?" Lu Chen wondered, his attention focused on the pale flower before him.
Immediately, detailed information about the flower appeared in his mind.
The Flower Alluring Slave was created by a Yuan Ying True Lord who ventured into a special realm filled with myriad spiritual flowers. Within this realm, he captured a rare flower sprite and refined it into this unique treasure.
By refining and absorbing this treasure, one can freely control the ancient flower sprite within the flower bud. The sprite's speed is astonishingly fast, rivaling even some seventh-grade magical artifacts.
Additionally, it possesses a powerful invisibility ability, evading detection even by the spiritual sense of Yuan Ying cultivators. Under the control of its master's thoughts, it can reveal everything around it on the flower petals.
Once fully refined, one can harness the power of the Flower Alluring Slave to cast enchanting secret arts and exotic illusions, confusing the minds of others.
"Flower Alluring Slave... its exact grade is unknown," Lu Chen muttered to himself.
"But going by its description, if used skillfully, it should be roughly equivalent to a seventh-grade treasure."
"More importantly, it can perfectly replace the fifth-grade reconnaissance treasure, the Void Nightmare Eye, that I've been using."
The Void Nightmare Eye had served Lu Chen well for many years, with its strong concealment and reconnaissance capabilities, suiting his cautious nature. It had aided him in accomplishing numerous feats.
However, being only a fifth-grade treasure, it could not hide from those with powerful spiritual senses or those who had cultivated corresponding secret arts, especially Yuan Ying True Lords.
Lu Chen had long wanted to replace it, and today his wish finally came true.
He extended his spiritual sense into the pale flower bud, performing a simple refinement ritual before commanding it with his thoughts.
Suddenly, the tiny flower sprite within the bud opened its eyes, fluttering its transparent four wings with lightning speed, and vanishing in an instant.
Lu Chen's spiritual sense swept the area, and the sprite's figure quietly reappeared dozens of zhang away.
Under his intentional control, the flower sprite, with its inherently low presence, seamlessly blended into the air.
Looking down at the pale flower bud in his hand, he watched as the petals silently opened, each one becoming a transparent screen, displaying the surroundings of the flower sprite.
"Multi-screen monitoring... an upgrade in every aspect compared to the Void Nightmare Eye," Lu Chen chuckled.
He summoned the flower sprite back, and it returned to lie within the flower bud, the petals gently closing to cover it once more.
With only a preliminary refinement of this special treasure, Lu Chen's scouting range was limited. However, once the full refinement was achieved, he would be able to scout over a much wider area.
"One more Yin Nu flower orb left," he said to himself.
"Come on, orb, reveal the second half of the Peach Immortal's Chaos Manual!" he prayed quietly.
Then, he reached out and gently touched the last white orb of light.
The orb silently shattered, and the countless tiny specks of light swiftly condensed into a slender river of light, accompanied by a phantom book, which instantly flowed into Lu Chen's body.
As expected, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"You have harvested a sixth-grade Yin Nu flower and obtained a seventh-grade cultivation technique, the Peach Immortal's Chaos Manual (Lower Volume)
."
As the thought vanished, a familiar pink book appeared before Lu Chen.
He focused his attention on the book and found that it was indeed the lower volume of the cultivation technique he sought.
"The mature orbs truly bring me the treasures I desire the most," Lu Chen praised quietly, feeling satisfied.
The upper volume of the Peach Immortal's Chaos Manual recorded most of the cultivation technique's content, but the crucial foundational techniques were found in the lower volume.
Additionally, the lower volume also contained several enchanting and replenishing secret arts. Although Lu Chen had no use for them himself, he could draw parallels and gain insight to avoid falling prey to such secret arts in the future.
His primary purpose for coming to the Feng Yuan Star Cave had been to leave the Thousand-Handed Demon there for fostering, but the rewards from the three orbs he had harvested far exceeded his expectations.
He had obtained a complete and superior unorthodox cultivation technique, the Peach Immortal's Chaos Manual, as well as two extraordinary scouting treasures, the Flower Alluring Slave and the Void Nightmare Eye.
Before leaving, he once again gave instructions to his incarnation, Ling Gu, asking him to tend to the few unusual spirit herbs remaining in the Yin Spirit Fields and to cultivate the several superior evil cultivation techniques he had been given. He also told him to go out from time to time to bring back some Yin souls, flesh, and other nutrients to become self-sufficient.
Lu Chen also reminded Rou Ling Shen to teach Little Thousand-Handed Demon well and, if it didn't mend its ways, to pluck one or two of the arms behind it as punishment.
Once everything was in order, Lu Chen returned to the Lei Huo Star Cave.
Amidst the myriad of fine thunderous lights, a faint floral fragrance drifted by, and the flower sprite appeared out of thin air, hovering in mid-air.
From a distance of hundreds of meters, Lu Chen held a pale white flower bud and strolled through the endless thunderous lights.
The flower bud blossomed, revealing layer after layer of petals, each one displaying a different scene, showing everything around the flower sprite with no blind spots.
"The single-screen has been upgraded to multi-screen, multi-angle. Good, good," Lu Chen chuckled in appreciation.
After confirming that there were no abnormalities outside the cave mansion, he transformed into a silver-white light and reappeared outside in an instant, deactivating the Wan Zhang Xuan Jing Formation.
As soon as he entered the cave mansion, he heard a buzzing sound in his ears.
Several tree nymphs of various sizes flew towards Lu Chen, circling him a few times as if attracted by the faint fragrance of the flower sprite on him, before pouting and flying away.
"Now, now, let me explain," Lu Chen called out, reaching towards them.
But the tree nymphs didn't turn back, disappearing into the spirit herbs.
However, Lu Chen's spiritual sense detected that they were peeking at him from behind the spirit herbs, curious and cautious.
Just as he was about to comfort them, a silver-white thunderous light flashed towards him like lightning.
Lu Chen pressed his palm down, and the silver-white horn of the Lei Long Kuang poked out from between his fingers, its body swaying as it tried to pounce on him.
"Where's that little demon?"
Lu Chen sensed the Lei Long Kuang's thoughts, filled with the desire to find the Thousand-Handed Demon.
"That little demon kept getting pummeled by you all and decided it had had enough. It's gone out to train and improve itself," Lu Chen explained with a smile.
"The day it returns will be the day it takes its revenge on all of you."
Lu Chen wasn't wrong. With Rou Ling Shen by its side, the Thousand-Handed Demon could release its abundant energy in various secret realms, facing all sorts of Yin beasts and ghosts, and its growth rate would surely be much faster than if it had stayed in the Lei Huo Star Cave and simply endured beatings.
