Chapter 226 (continued)

However, the most important thing right now is the lotus seeds. If there's an opportunity later, we can try going out to try.

Li Yang naturally understood the unspoken meaning in Lianxin's words.

It seems that Lianlian also realized that Lotus Domain was a bit strange; otherwise, given his aversion to the Flower of Flower of Evil, he would never have brought it home.

The three of them, holding hands in this strange manner, entered Lianxin's emerald castle.

The barrier outside the castle easily contained the Lianxin after sensing it.

Li Yang and the Flower of Evil were not stopped because of Lianxin.

From a distance, the castle appears to have no entrance, but upon closer inspection, one discovers that the entire castle wall is covered with exquisitely detailed openwork carvings.

Because the openwork areas also shimmer with a greenish light, you have to get close to see it.

Lianxin led them through the openwork opening.

After passing through the emerald light, Li Yang felt a sudden brightness before her eyes.

Since arriving in the Lotus Domain, she has always been amazed by its magnificent scenery, and the scene before her eyes has left her even more astonished.

The interior of the castle is extremely spacious: it seems to stretch as far as the eye can see; and if you look up, you can't see the sky.

This enormous space contains countless transparent "cubicles".

This scene made Li Yang feel slightly uncomfortable.

When she first met at the Labyrinth party, the first challenge she faced was this small space, separated by countless cubicles.

They are stacked layer upon layer, arranged neatly, each about one meter square.

This is not a real cubicle, but an independent space created by the Power of Space.

She turned to look at Lianxin, but saw no surprise in his eyes.

This relieved Li Yang.

Presumably, this has always been the case inside the castle, and it wasn't done intentionally.

This emerald castle is filled not only with the Power of Space, but also with a rich Power of Time.

The Flower of Evil keenly sensed. "Here... time has stopped?"

Lianxin: "Perhaps it's because I wasn't here, and my mother wanted to preserve these lotus seeds."

The Flower of Evil pouted and said, "I haven't seen my mother help protect the Sacred Heart Flower either."

He muttered to himself quietly, while cautiously pricking up his ears.

There has still been no response.

If it were before, his mother would have scolded him long ago...

Lianxin didn't find anything unusual, because he had no idea his mother was scolding the Flower of Evil.

The Flower of Evil felt increasingly uneasy and tightened its grip on Li Yang's hand.

Li Yang turned to look at him again. "What's wrong?"

The Flower of Evil hesitated for a moment, then said, "Hurry up and get the lotus seeds, let's return to the Evil Domain."

Li Yang didn't want to delay, so she asked Lianxin, "How do we get these lotus seeds?"

Before Lianxin could speak, Li Yang received a reply from Sister Longevity: [Would you like to consume one year of your lifespan to perform this inquiry?]

Li Yang: "!"

Why can't you just say it directly? Why do you have to ask for this extra year of your life?

"Query!"

[You have shared access to the Ninth-Grade Lianxin. You can use the Power of Space to break the barrier, elevate your rank to Ninth Grade, and then harvest it.]

Is it that simple?

Li Yang was quite eager to try.

When the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower was harvested, each flower could increase one's lifespan by 100,000 years. What about the Ninth Grade Lotus Seed?

She doesn't lack lifespan, what's important is the upper limit of her lifespan!

Li Yang quickly said, "Lianlian, can I collect it?"

Lianxin smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, fellow Daoist."

He added, "Yes, you can take all the lotus seeds with you. I promised you."

Li Yang: "!"

The Flower of Evil said sourly, "As expected of the foolish Lianxin who lives in the core of the Lotus Domain, so magnanimous."

The words "pure" and "stupid" sound very similar.

But ever since Lianxin devoured the God King of Time, the Flower of Evil has never called him Pure Lianxin again.

Therefore, he was using a homophone to satirize the Lianxin.

Li Yang raised an eyebrow, about to retort.

Lianxin replied, "I'm not magnanimous. These lotus seeds are very important to me, but without you, fellow Daoist, I wouldn't have been able to return."

Flower of Evil: "..."

A surge of warmth filled Li Yang's heart, and she said to Lianxin, "I don't need so many lotus seeds, we..."

The Flower of Evil quickly said, "Stop wasting time! If you two don't want them, give them all to me! These lotus seeds are just taking up space here; it's better to take them all and nurture new ones!"

Lianxin ignored the first half of the Flower of Evil" statement and said, "Fellow Daoist, he is right. Only by taking it away can something new be born."

Li Yang wasn't going to be fooled, and asked again, "How many years does it take to gestate?"

Lianxin: "..."

The Flower of Evil coughed lightly, but remained silent.

Judging from the progress of the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower, Li Yang could guess that it would probably take millions of years... or even longer, to cultivate so many lotus seeds again.

However, since the Sacred Heart Flower can grow in the Evil Domain, the Lotus Seeds should also be able to be cultivated outside the Lotus Domain.

When she has time, she'll help Lianlian study it properly.

If the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower and the Ninth Grade Lotus Seed could be cultivated on a large scale, then... cough, the Evil Domain might become a treasure land.

Li Yang possesses abundant Power of Time within her.

When Si Kui helped her sculpt her Origin Soul, she did not remove these Power of Time and Power of Space, but instead made them more solidly stored.

Therefore, Li Yang was able to mobilize them easily at this time.

The Power of Time emanated from his fingertips, and when he touched the faintly outlined transparent grid, it was as if he had touched a wall of water.

Li Yang felt some resistance, but easily passed through.

Lianxin and Flower of Evil did not come in; they remained outside.

After entering the cubicle, Li Yang felt a strong sense of Power of Time, but she did not try to absorb it. Instead, she stared intently at the milky white lotus seeds.

The lotus seed is indeed very different from the Lianxin.

The Lianxin is as white as snow, like a snow-white lotus that may bloom at any moment.

Lotus seeds, on the other hand, are milky white, round and plump, and very solid spheres.

This ball is quite large, at least one meter in diameter.

From a human perspective, these lotus seeds are quite delicious.

Li Yang thought of the milk tofu she had eaten in her previous life, only the lotus seeds in front of her were much bigger.

How do I collect the data?

This thing is so big, she doesn't know where to start.

Let's use the Flower of Flower of Evil's position first.

When Li Yang suddenly advanced to the Ninth Grade, the Flower of Evil hadn't even reacted yet. He asked in surprise, "You brought your Risking Life into this too?"

But he soon realized, "Damn it, you've borrowed my position again without a word. How did you even do that? Just because we're symbiotic...?"

Li Yang ignored him and was too lazy to explain.

In any case, now it's the Flower of Evil begging to coexist with her.

After she briefly raised her cultivation level to the Ninth Grade, the scene before her eyes changed.

The lotus seeds still looked milky and soft, but Li Yang could sense that the truly valuable lotus seeds were still deep inside.

This milky-white shell seems to be merely its warm bed.

When Li Yang reached out and touched it, it felt soft yet extremely resilient.

But after she applied a little force, the outer shell began to melt.

The milky white, supple texture gradually transformed into a milk-like liquid, and then quietly dissolved into a milky white mist.

Li Yang's fingertips trembled slightly, and her eyes widened involuntarily.

She felt the spreading Power of Nature mixed in with the milky white mist.

What happened...?

There are Power of Nature here!

Because of the unique nature of Power of Nature, apart from those Star Wielders cultivate the Natural Mind Nature Department of the Xiyan Nature Heart Method, no one else can sense them at all.

The question is... why does the Lotus Domain possess so much Power of Nature?

Was this always there, or was it added later?

As Li Yang was still wondering, those Power of Nature seemed to have found a new home, joyfully leaping towards her Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul.

Li Yang didn't need to actively absorb it at all; these Power of Nature had already filled her Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul.

Li Yang: "!"

This feeling wasn't bad, and Li Yang clearly felt that his Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul had become more mature, as if it had been patiently sculpted by Teacher You.

After the milky white mist dissipated, Li Yang saw the tiny lotus seeds.

The Ninth Grade Lotus Seed was about the same size as the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower, and at this moment it looked like a crystal goose egg, floating in Kongzhi.

Li Yang reached out and easily grasped the milky-white lotus seed.

Its warm and smooth texture brings a sense of tranquility.

[Lifespan increased by 200,000 years.]

[Lifespan limit increased by 200,000 years.]

Li Yang's lips curled up slightly, her eyes filled with undisguised delight. The Ninth Grade Lotus Seed was indeed much more powerful than the Ninth Grade Sacred Heart Flower!

The latter only provides a lifespan limit of 100,000 years, while the lotus seed doubles that.

When Li Yang looked up at the countless lotus seeds in front of her again, she wished she could hug the Lianxin and kiss it.

Lianlian is so wonderful!

If she can harvest so many lotus seeds, then her lifespan limit... is practically unlimited!

Unfortunately, she couldn't bring her spatial bag in; with only three people carrying them, they really couldn't carry that many lotus seeds.

Fortunately, real lotus seeds are only the size of a goose egg; if they were the size of a yoga ball, they would be much more difficult to carry.

Lianxin: "Fellow Daoist, you can give me the lotus seeds; I can take them all with me."

Li Yang turned to look at him and asked, "How should I bring it?"

During the inquiry, she handed the lotus seed, about the size of a goose egg, to Lianxin.

The round lotus seed disappeared after falling into the palm of the Lianxin heart.

The Flower of Flower of Evil shifted its gaze slightly, glancing at the hem of Lianxin's dress, and said, "It's over there."

Li Yang looked over as well and saw that there was a dark pattern on the hem of Lianxin's originally snow-white dress.
