Chapter 79: Flowers on the Other Shore
"The flowers on the other shore bloom for a moment, beauty fades easily, and a true friend is hard to find."
Zhang Qian sighed faintly and said, "Now we are just missing a flower from the other shore."
Uh, why are you sighing again all of a sudden?
Her Royal Highness the Princess already gave people a feeling of loneliness and desolation, and when she sighed, it was as if she was abandoned by a heartless lover, which made me feel pity for her.
I'm not a heartless man!
Chen Jiu was a bit at a loss and said, "The flowers of the other shore only bloom for a moment, so how can we pick them?"
Zhang Qian shook her head slightly and said, "No, Moment of Beauty is just a sigh that the beauty of the world is easy to pass away, and beauty is easy to fade, leaving only sighs."
It’s really hard to guess what this woman is thinking. It’s not easy for you to get old, so why are you sighing about these things?
Chen Jiu could only comfort her: "Qianqian, you won't get old."
Zhang Qian rolled her eyes at him and said helplessly, "It's hard to find a bosom friend. It's said that the momentary beauty of the flower on the other side can evoke people's good memories of the past. Can't you leave me some good memories?"
I feel dizzy!
Chen Jiu is really not very good at talking about love, because those things are not on his mind. Most of his memories from past and present lives seem to be about endless pursuits.
He said with some embarrassment: "Do you know where the flowers on the other shore are?"
Zhang Qian said quietly: "The other shore is naturally on the other side. As long as you can reach the other side, you can pick the flowers on the other side at will."
"Where is the other shore ?"
Chen Jiu was confused.
Zhang Qian looked at his stunned look and couldn't help laughing: "You are really stupid. We can't go to the other side of the river, but there are flowers on both sides of the river."
Are you kidding me?
Chen Jiuzhen was a little unsure. This woman's expression changed as quickly as the weather in June. Zhang Qian's expression changed several times when she said these few words.
He could only ask carefully: "Then shall we go to Naihe now?"
"Let's not rush about this," Zhang Qian found a flat stone like a bench in the valley and sat down. Then she looked up at the sky blankly, frowning and thinking.
When Chen Jiu saw that she had left half for himself, he quickly sat down.
The Honghuang Divine Cauldron was frightened by the sudden lightning and it flashed around with them. After flashing for who knows how many times, they finally found an uninhabited mountain area. Now they were hiding in this small valley and they didn't know if God would suddenly strike them again.
Chen Jiu couldn't help but look up to the sky.
Could this thief God be the one who favors his relatives and friends?
Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart. If he said it out loud, he would most likely be struck by lightning!
After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Qian finally murmured, "The flowers of the other shore grow in the darkest and most humid places, so the flowers of the other shore will grow in the most yin places on both sides of the Nai River. However, these places are occupied by those powerful beings."
This is normal. Most of the ghosts in the underworld rely on Yin energy to cultivate. The places with the heaviest Yin energy are naturally occupied by the strong.
Chen Jiu thought about it, then asked: "How powerful are those ghosts, and where did you go to pick the flowers from the other shore?"
Zhang Qian murmured, "We have tried many places before, but there is only one place where we can pick the flowers from the other shore. There is an evil ghost as huge as a mountain. Apart from its amazing strength, there is nothing special about it.
However, even so, my uncle would be seriously injured every time he fought with him, and each time the injury became more serious than the last time. "
ah?
Even the leader of the Underworld Cult was badly injured!
Chen Jiu was stunned and asked, "Do you think we can defeat that evil ghost?"
Zhang Qian slowly shook her head and said, "We can't possibly defeat them because the yin energy there is heavy and there are always ghosts who don't know how to live or die and are being devoured by the evil ghost. The evil ghost is getting stronger and stronger. Now even my uncle may not be able to withstand the evil ghost, so we naturally can't defeat them."
No wonder you're sitting here in a daze.
Chen Jiu asked carefully: "What should we do then, change places?"
Zhang Qian did not answer but asked: "How strong is your spiritual sense?"
This is what I asked.
Chen Jiu said awkwardly: "How should I put this? I don't know how to put it either."
Zhang Qian was stunned for a moment, then asked: "How did you feel under that divine power just now? Did you feel unable to resist and dare not fight back?"
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly and said, "No, under the divine power, I only felt that the god was indeed very powerful, and we were just like ants. As for not daring to fight back, why would I rush up to him and give him a knife if I didn't dare."
Zhang Qian couldn't help but be surprised and asked, "You mean the divine power can't suppress you at all? Your divine consciousness is already as powerful as a god!"
Is that the real God?
Chen Jiu said uncertainly: "Maybe."
Zhang Qian stood up immediately after hearing this and said, "Then I know where to go. There is a place that is occupied by something. Any ghosts that pass by will inexplicably walk into it and be swallowed by it. My uncle and I tried it and almost got trapped in the illusion. If it weren't for Lao Ding's reminder, we would probably be trapped in it and couldn't get out."
Chen Jiu couldn't help but wonder: "Then can't you just ask Lao Ding to remind us all the time?"
Zhang Qian shook her head slightly and said, "No, even if Lao Ding reminds us all the time, our minds are full of illusions and we can't see where the flower on the other side is."
Is it that awesome?
Chen Jiu retreated a little and said, "Can I go?"
Zhang Qian nodded slightly and said, "It should be no problem for you to go. Your spiritual awareness is so strong that the monster should not be able to affect your mind. If it really doesn't work, you can just let Lao Ding lead us out."
Well, if it's just a spiritual attack, there's no problem in giving it a try.
Before long, they arrived at the bank of the Nai River.
The water of the Naihe River was indeed blood-yellow in color, and there were countless snakes and insects stirring inside. The wandering ghosts who were unable to reincarnate were sometimes flipped up and wailed in pain, and sometimes drowned and lost their voices. It was truly creepy to watch.
The fishy wind wafted into his nose, and Chen Jiu couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose and frowned, "Why are there so many snakes and insects in here?"
Zhang Qian couldn't help but frown and said, "There are too many snakes and insects in the world of the living. The Northern Underworld is too lazy to make any more trouble and doesn't send them to reincarnate. They just drive all the snakes and insects' spirits into the Nai River."
Well, being reborn as a snake or insect is really miserable, and there is no chance of reincarnation.
Chen Jiu sighed slightly, and then asked: "Where is the place you mentioned?"
Zhang Qian pointed to a foggy swamp in the distance and said, "Look, that's over there."
My God, what a huge swamp! The fog is like a dark cloud covering the sky and you can’t see the end of it!
The underworld is already extremely dark, and with the fog covering it, it is impossible to see what the swamp looks like.
How can you get into a place like this and pick the flowers from the other shore?
Chen Jiu walked over slowly and carefully extended his spiritual sense to take a look. It seemed that there was nothing else in the vast swamp except mud and tumbling snakes and insects. The swamp was too big and he could not detect the edge.
This kind of place is really daunting, with mud everywhere, and you can never imagine where that terrifying creature will emerge from.
There is no other way. All I’m missing is a piece of the red spider lily. For Jiaona, I have to go in and try no matter how dangerous it is.
Chen Jiu directly took Zhang Qian into the demonic power space, and then rushed into the swamp like a gust of wind.
He didn't even dare step on the mud below, for he was really afraid that a hand would suddenly reach out from the mud and pull him in.
Fortunately, he had already practiced walking in the air when he was flying with Zhang Qian, so he had no problem running in the air at a height of ten feet above the mud.
In a short while, he had gone dozens of miles into the swamp.
At this time, a slightly raised piece of land suddenly appeared not far ahead, and on it was a bright red patch of flowers from the other shore dancing like fireworks!
Are you so lucky?
Chen Jiu was quite surprised and said: "Lao Ding, look, those are the flowers of the other shore, right?"
Honghuang Shending said without hesitation: "It's fake, where is the flower of the other shore in front?"
Fake!
Chen Jiu extended his spiritual sense and took a careful look. Sure enough, there was a huge quagmire in front of him. There seemed to be a huge monster in the quagmire with its mouth open waiting for him to pick the flowers from the other side.
You probably don't imagine that I don't have any fantasies in my mind at all?
And you want to swallow me!
Chen Jiu snorted coldly inwardly, then drew out Kaitian like lightning, ready to chop it down with a knife.
The monster suddenly turned into Zhang Qian's appearance!
Is this Zhang Qian?
Of course that is impossible, Zhang Qian is in his magic power space.
You can become Zhang Qian, because you have never seen Jiaona and Luo Li.
Chen Jiu gritted his teeth and chopped down with his knife regardless of anything.
With a sharp "Woo" sound, the several-mile-long sword energy chopped down, and the monster immediately screamed and sank into the mud and disappeared.
This didn't kill him?
Chen Jiu used his spiritual sense to probe into the mud and found that the huge monster had disappeared without a trace.
He didn't stop and just ran forward.
As a result, after a while, he actually saw a slightly raised piece of land and a field of flowers on the other side dancing like fireworks!
This is exactly the same as what I just saw. Could it be fake again?
Chen Jiu extended his spiritual sense to take a closer look and found that it was real!
You’re welcome.
In a flash, the flower of the other shore was collected into his demonic power space.
“Wow, that’s a lot!”
Zhang Qian couldn't help but exclaim.
Chen Jiu asked quickly: "Is that enough?"
This place is too dangerous. The monster was hit by Kaitian's sword but it was still fine. It's really scary.
Zhang Qian said without hesitation: "Enough, enough, let's go back quickly."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu immediately turned around and ran in the direction they were coming from.
In fact, he worried for nothing. The monster was not completely unharmed. He chopped the monster's mouth into four pieces without caring about it!
Naturally, the monster didn't dare to come looking for him again. There were plenty of ghosts and monsters in this huge swamp anyway, so there was no need for the monster to fight with him who was holding the magic weapon.
