Chapter 165 (continued)
In that blank space, Lianxin seemed to be isolated by the Flower of Evil.
He was extremely worried, but then he broke through again, increasing his lifespan by 800 years in a single instance.
Li Yang felt that she could not control her Spirit Sea. The words left by the Flower of Evil were like red-hot irons, burning every nerve in her body with pain.
Suddenly, a faint stream welled up from my heart.
This stream shares the same origin as the "Sparse Words, Natural Heart Sutra," but it is not the pale blue-green that Li Yang is familiar with; instead, it is a warm golden yellow.
Li Yang realized what this was.
She opened her mouth and whispered, "Teacher..."
It turned out that deep within her Star Aperture, Si Kui had left her a spiritual guardian.
This mark will help calm the raging waves on her Spirit Sea when she is under mental stress.
Li Yang and Lianxin were always inseparable before.
With the Lianxin reassuring her Spirit Sea, she has remained largely unaffected by external influences.
Just now, the Flower of Evil somehow isolated Lianxin, Li Yang was suddenly confronted by a Divine Venerable... Even though the Flower of Evil didn't intend to devour her, Li Yang still suffered immense mental pollution.
Fortunately, the spiritual imprint left by Si Kui helped her cleanse herself of these impurities.
Li Yang felt a lump in her throat, missing Si Kui more than ever before.
She was like a wronged child missing her mother.
"What a spineless person I am!" Li Yang silently berated herself in her heart.
Even if she had suffered great injustice in her past life, she had never experienced such emotions.
Indeed, having someone to rely on makes one weak.
However, Li Yang didn't want to lose this support.
"Junior Sister!" Li Qingchen had returned to normal and looked anxiously at Li Yang, asking, "Are you alright?"
Li Yang composed herself and looked up at him. "Senior brother, what did you just see?"
Li Qingchen looked blank, and after a long pause, she said, "I only remember that we fell into a hole, and then I lost consciousness..."
Li Yang didn't say anything more, she just closed her eyes gently and steadied her breathing.
At this moment, the system displayed a message: [Fragments of Time Rewind detected. Do you wish to consume lifespan to repair them?]
Li Yang: "!"
The Time Rewind she learned was always incomplete.
Li Yang had not encountered an opportunity to repair it, but unexpectedly, he detected fragments of Time Rewind at this moment.
Li Yang immediately asked, "How much lifespan will it consume?"
[It takes 10,000 years to collect each fragment.]
Li Yang's vision went black.
She doesn't need another ten thousand years to live, but each piece takes ten thousand years... How many pieces are there in total?
[35 pieces.]
Li Yang: "..."
She quickly asked again, "Will the fragments disappear if they aren't collected?"
[Currently collectible fragments: 30.]
That's five pieces gone!
But she really couldn't bear to collect 30 pieces.
30 pieces would represent 300,000 years!
If Li Yang were in her own plantation, she would not hesitate to spend 300,000 years, but right now she is still in the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain.
[Currently collectible fragments: 25.]
[Currently collectible fragments: 20.]
Li Yang gritted his teeth and said, "I'll consume 200,000 years of my lifespan to collect 20 pieces!"
Luckily Li Yang spoke up in time, otherwise there wouldn't even be 20 pieces left.
However, even after collecting these 20 pieces, Li Yang felt quite apprehensive.
Time Rewind...
Was it worth sacrificing 200,000 years of her lifespan?
Especially in this dangerous Thousand Flowers Realm Domain.
[Lifespan increased by 800 years.]
[Lifespan increased by 800 years.]
Well, thankfully there's Lianlian's water tank, which has been quickly replenished for her.
[Star Skill - Time Rewind is currently under repair and unavailable.]
On the system panel, Time Rewind has turned gray, and detailed information cannot be displayed. There is only a slowly advancing progress bar at the bottom.
Let's fix it slowly; Li Yang isn't in a hurry to use Time Rewind.
"Why are there fragments of Time Rewind?" Li Yang wondered to herself.
Sister Longevity: [Would you like to consume 300,000 years of lifespan to perform this query?]
Li Yang rolled her eyes. "No!"
There's no need to waste 300,000 years of lifespan!
Li Yang already had a general idea of the answer in her mind.
What she and Li Qingchen had just experienced was neither a simple illusion nor a journey back millions of years... but rather the Flower of Evil using its full-fledged Time Rewind to recreate a scene for them that was comparable to time travel.
Li Yang never expected that Time Rewind could completely simulate reality.
She still remembers the feeling of the flowers, how hard she had to dig downwards... she even vividly remembers the damp, decaying smell beneath the flowers.
It is precisely because the Flower of Evil used Time Rewind that so many fragments of Time Rewind were left behind.
This actually benefited Li Yang, allowing her to repair her Time Rewind.
It turns out that Time Rewind, when used properly, can create an illusion that is indistinguishable from reality.
Moreover, even Ninth Grade Lianxin couldn't see through this illusion. Probably because it was a real, long-gone past.
Li Yang roughly understood the purpose of the Flower of Flower of Evil.
He was not satisfied with merely devouring Li Yang; he hoped she would use her status Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer to pray for Divine Descent.
Once the Divine Descent, the Flower of Evil will conquer a Realm Domain.
But how could Li Yang possibly pray for Divine Descent?
She would never betray Huaxia!
Just then, a hoarse male voice rang out. "Oh, there are actually two Fifth Grade Realm. Are you offering yourselves up as food?"
Li Yang snapped out of her daze and realized that she and Li Qingchen were standing on a muddy path.
They finally saw the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain for Flower of Evil.
The sky here is dark red, and the air is thick with the pungent smell of blood.
The description of the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain by the Star Nexus Pavilion is completely accurate.
In the distance stands a magnificent building; that is the huge square where the Thousand-Person Feast will be held.
The square looks like a bullring from the outside.
The stones used to build the plaza were all blood-soaked red crystals, which appeared even more sinister and eerie in the dim light.
There are no flowers here, no White Fungus Race, only madmen who have been devouring Astral Realm life for millions of years.
Li Yang felt a surge of bloodlust rising within him.
Li Qingchen even unleashed her Star Soul, charging towards the provocative Star Wielders with an unprecedentedly ruthless expression.
That Star Wielders is at least Sixth Grade Fifth Stage!
Lianxin: "Fellow Daoist, there are a large number of Flower of Evil spores around here!"
As expected... Li Yang sensed it without Lianxin's reminder.
The spores of the Flower of Evil filled the entire Thousand Flowers Realm Domain.
However, these spores are even more advanced; they are pure spiritual entities, difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
Even with Lianxin protecting them, Li Yang and Li Qingchen still felt the violent emotions.
Especially when faced with the provocation of this Star Wielders, they wished nothing more than to cut him down with their blades!
Li Qingchen had already charged forward, while the Star Wielders licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Although I've just finished eating, I wouldn't mind eating the two of you as well."
As soon as he finished speaking, he moved with astonishing speed, like lightning, slicing towards Li Yang.
Clearly, he saw through Li Qingchen's Star Soul and realized that it was defensive in Star Soul, and that breaking through it wouldn't be easy.
Since Li Yang did not unleash her Star Soul, and given her slender figure, she appeared weak and vulnerable, he intended to devour Li Yang first.
A bloodlust ignited within Li Yang.
She rarely had such intense emotions, but at this moment it was as if something was pounding in her heart, urging her to tear this damned Star Wielders to pieces!
--I am in your heart.
The gentle voice of the Flower of Evil floated into Li Yang's mind, making her tremble and unable to avoid the sudden attack of the Star Wielders.
"Fellow Daoist!" Lianxin called out anxiously.
Li Qingchen whirled around and threw his Star Soul at Li Yang, attempting to shield her from the attack.
The Sixth Grade Star Wielders Master who made this move was primarily skilled in speed.
Suddenly, a burst of blue light erupted around him, striking towards Li Yang's lower abdomen like lightning and thunder. Li Qingchen's Star Soul had no time to protect Li Yang.
Bang!
The attack of the Sixth Grade Star Wielders actually hit a hard object.
Li Yang's "Tree Garment" had already been strengthened. Although it was a bit of a stretch to withstand an attack from Sixth Grade Star Wielders, at least it wouldn't kill Li Yang on the spot.
As Li Yang struggled against the encroaching Flower of Evil, she couldn't help but ask Lianxin, "Can you enter my heart?"
Lianxin: "!"
Li Yang knew she had made an unreasonable request, and she said, "It's nothing, I'll deal with this person first."
She suddenly looked up at the Sixth Grade Realm Star Wielders standing right in front of her.
This person's true form must be Star Beast, because he possesses a pair of claws that do not belong to a human.
Moreover, his Star Soul was quite unique, consisting of lightning threads wrapped around his entire body.
He was, after all, Sixth Grade Realm Star Wielders. Li Yang did not underestimate him. Moreover, she wanted to finish the battle quickly and was unwilling to stay in the Thousand Flowers Realm Domain. So she went all out and raised her Risking Life level to the Eighth Grade.
The sudden burst of spiritual power caused the pupils of the Sixth Grade Realm Star Wielders in front of him to shrink sharply.
"You... you..." He knew he had kicked a hornet's nest. He never expected that this person would actually suppress his cultivation level and pretend to be weak while actually being strong!
Without saying a word, Li Yang grasped Chenri and released the Star Soul.
Suddenly, half the sky turned snow-white.
The blooming pear blossoms were extremely oppressive; they instantly coalesced into countless snow-white blades, Earth Spike precisely towards the Sixth Grade Realm Star Wielders.
"No... let me go... I don't want to..."
