This plant was definitely no ordinary thing. The Black Lotus from before had yielded so many Life-Preserving Pills.
This Black Flower was probably something similar. Perhaps, like the Black Lotus, it could be picked by activating the Black Lotus Seal.
But I did not do that this time. Back then, the Tong Ghost Hand had been too frightened to come out, so I had picked it myself.
Now, the Tong Ghost Hand was not unable to come out, so I directly activated it.
The Tong Ghost Hand darted out, its fingers clawing at the air.
"Pull this weed out for me!"
As I spoke, I did my best to control the Tong Ghost Hand.
It was connected to the true qi in my body. At my command, the arm swung a few times, spread its five fingers, and grabbed directly at the black flower.
Then, something magical happened.
Though the flower could not be touched physically, the Tong Ghost Hand was able to seize it.
Sure enough, it had to be picked using special means.
The Tong Ghost Hand pulled hard, but it seemed unable to yank it free.
Then the runes on its arm flashed, and the Black Flower was instantly pulled from the heads of the two ghosts.
The moment it was pulled out, the two ghosts fell to the ground with two bangs and regained consciousness.
But both clutched their heads and screamed in agony:
"Ah! Ah!"
"It hurts, it hurts..."
Then, with two more bangs, their souls scattered and vanished.
As for the black flower plant held in the Tong Ghost Hand, it flickered. Once the black light receded, it seemed to solidify into a physical form.
I did not dare touch it with my skin. Instead, I poked it with the Fish Bone Sword.
