Fire Lotus

Within the pitch-black, sinister cave.

The Karmic Dragon's aura was weak. Carrying Jiang Dao and Saintess Yao Yao on its back, it flew into the distance.

After successfully acknowledging Jiang Dao as its master, the Karmic Dragon had handed over even the treasures it had collected over many years.

At this moment, it was leading the two of them toward its treasure hoard.

Within another utterly dark region.

The Karmic Dragon swiftly descended, letting out weak sounds from its mouth as it repeatedly nodded toward Jiang Dao.

This area was densely covered in all manner of medicinal herbs.

Each one was strange and unusual, with wisps of eerie black mist curling around their surfaces.

The moment she arrived, Saintess Yao Yao revealed a shocked expression. In disbelief, she carefully examined these herbs.

"Black Demon Grass, Dragon Yin Flower, Extreme Yin Poison Seed... They are all objects of utmost yin and utmost poison in this world!"

Suddenly, she noticed an enormous lotus pod amid the densely packed herbs.

The lotus pod was as large as a small house. It was filled with jet-black lotus seeds, each as large as a water barrel, rooted in this dark place and wreathed in black mist, mysterious and unfathomable.

"Hundred Yin Poison Lotus!"

Saintess Yao Yao's expression changed. "No, it has already nurtured Hundred Yin Infants!"

"Hundred Yin Infants?"

Jiang Dao frowned.

"Hee hee hee..."

Suddenly, he heard strange, quiet laughter beside his ears, like children at play. Jiang Dao's expression shifted as he saw tiny infant heads emerge from every jet-black lotus seed. They were incomparably demonic, each with three eyes, all staring at them in unison.

The infants watched them while letting out eerie chuckles.

"Hee hee hee..."

Their voices were as crisp as silver bells.

"Baleful Intent!"

A cold gleam instantly surfaced
