Chapter 1156 Asura Golden Sunflowers

It took Ding Hao less than two hours to find the ruins of the Immortal Period that the Ceroman Clan had mentioned. As expected, its location deviated from the one on the map drawn by the Ceroman Clan. It moved westward for about 5,000 kilometers, and the terrain under the sea had also changed. If it weren’t for its emitting a strange aura of vicissitudes, Ding Hao wouldn’t have noticed it.

Ding Hao released a little of his power.

In an instant, the rocks and mud covering the surface of the ruins were directly blown away, and pieces of white jade-like ancient rocks were exposed in front of him. They had been immersed in the sea for a long time, but they remained crystal clear and spotless.

It should be a kind of jade that fell from some kind of building. There were obvious carving marks on those rocks, which were basically paintings of some animals and plants. Each stroke was natural and smooth, and it had a sense of spirituality as if the creatures in the paintings were alive. There was a faint silver mist covering those rocks, and the seawater could not get within half a meter of it.

“This is silver jade, an extremely rare divine material. In the Immortal Period, it was a kind of top-grade material for refining divine weapons. With the collapse of the Immortal Period, this kind of divine material has become extremely rare. Even a Supreme Master in the God Realm would be tempted when he sees this kind of divine material…”

Ding Hao was shocked.

With a wave of his palm, a one-meter-long piece of silver jade flew into his hand. It weighed tens of thousands of pounds, and a faint sense of warmth came from it. He felt as if he were stroking the skin of a beautiful lady.

“It’s a pity that it has been buried in this sea for too long, and most of its spirituality has dissipated.” Ding Hao sighed softly, but he was also surprised by the extraordinary power of this kind of divine material. It had been buried under the endless deep sea water since the Immortal Period. It was unknown how many times it had been washed and corroded. Until now, it was still warm and slightly hot, and the seawater could not invade within half a meter of it. It could be predicted what kind of power it had when it was at its peak.

There were tens of thousands of this kind of half-ruined silver jade scattered in the surrounding area of dozens of miles. This was definitely a big deal. It was unknown who or which force had built this site. This kind of wealth could probably only be possessed by a powerful man in the Immortal Period.

This discovery made Ding Hao more looking forward to the ruins.

The rocks and soil continued to roll to both sides. Ding Hao activated his mental power, and the whole ancient site gradually showed its true appearance with large pieces of silver buildings in front of him.

“It is indeed the architectural style of the Immortal Period…”

Ding Hao had read countless ancient books and scrolls of God’s Palace and the Land of Infinity, and he had paid special attention to the information about the Immortal Period. The buildings in front of him were like opulent jade buildings. They were antique, full of ancient style, and there was a hint of primitiveness in their simplicity, which was exactly the style of the buildings in the Immortal Period recorded in countless ancient scrolls.

When the Ceroman Clan discovered this place, they were probably shocked. They firmly believed that there must be an extraordinary divine treasure in the ruins, so they entered the ancient site at all costs. In the end, the patriarch of the Ceroman Clan and dozens of top masters of the clan died one after another, and only one of them managed to escape alive.

Ding Hao lifted his foot, and with a flash, he instantly entered the white jade buildings.

He did not dare to despise the ancient site.

In an instant, a strange feeling filled his whole body, and he had an illusion that every pore on his body turned extremely refreshed. Every time he breathed, he felt as if he was inhaling and exhaling Immortal Qi. However, Ding Hao’s keen sixth sense of Mind Essential told him that there was great killing intent filling such a seemingly peaceful environment.

It was lonely at the top of the bejeweled buildings.

Ding Hao felt as if he were walking in the Blue Moon Toad Palace. The seawater around him was forced away by the invisible power of the silver jade and could not invade the site. All the buildings were spotless and extremely beautiful with a kind of unworldly Immortal Qi that was almost unreal.

Soon, a crystalline door appeared in front of Ding Hao. It was like a wall of light, blocking his path.

Under the light wall, there was a figure with a human body and a fishtail. His whole body was dark blue, and half of his arm disappeared behind the light wall. He was motionless and silent.

He was a master of the Ceroman Clan.

Ding Hao approached and observed the Ceroman carefully. He found that the Ceroman had been dead for a long time, and his vitality had long been cut off, but his body was well preserved. There was no sign of decay on him, and he still looked like a living person. Moreover, there was no panic or anger on his face that people might appear before they died. Instead, there was a faint smile on his face. He looked as if he had seen something extremely happy before he died.

“He should be one of the masters of the Ceroman Clan who followed their patriarch to the ruins…” Ding Hao guessed. He collected and preserved the Ceroman’s body with a spatial magical weapon. He had promised the Ceroman Clan’s current patriarch that he would bring their clansmen’s bodies back.

He released his Divine Senses and stepped into the light wall after a brief observation.

Everything in front of him suddenly became clear. It was no longer the dark environment at the bottom of the sea but broad daylight. The breeze blew gently, the fragrance of green grass blew on his face, and he could hear the sound of waterfalls. It was like a fairyland. The scenery was extremely magnificent. He felt as if he had come to paradise in an instant.

Such a change had long been within Ding Hao’s expectations.

“This is a small world created by a Powerful Divine. From the outside, it looks like a speck of dust, but it can accommodate hundreds of rivers. I’m not teleported to another place. In fact, I’m still at the bottom of the sea.”

Ding Hao thought to himself as he observed the surroundings.

This was a small world that had existed since the Immortal Period. It was unknown just how many years it had been preserved, but it was truly rare. The flowers and plants within it were all species from the Immortal Period, and they had long since gone extinct in the outside world.

The entire space was filled with abundant Spiritual Qi.

However, Ding Hao did not dare to be careless at all, because the Divine Senses of the Mind Essential told him that the killing intent was more horrible here. Wisps of killing intent were hidden between heaven and earth. If they were accidentally triggered, there would be a killing tribulation in an instant.

There was stunningly great killing intent behind the seemingly beautiful and harmless scenery.

“It’s very horrible. There is no inscription tactical deployment here, but there is the aura of fatal formations. Maybe it’s the means of an immortal,” the Sword Master said with a dignified voice.

“This place gives me a bad feeling as if there is something familiar…” the Saber Master muttered to herself, and her tone became very strange.

Ding Hao suddenly had an idea.

“There’s something that the Saber Master seems to be familiar with… Well, could it be that the Saber Master is also a part of consciousness that has been passed down from the Immortal Period?”

At this moment, Ding Hao suddenly found that there was a golden sunflower-like thing in front of him. The golden petals were extremely beautiful and emitted a burst of fragrance. It was like an immortal medicine. Just sniffing a wisp of fragrance made him feel comfortable as if he were ascending to heaven.

“Could this really be an immortal medicine?”

Ding Hao’s current strength and cultivation had reached the peak of several epochs. Naturally, he could clearly distinguish that there was something strange that was almost like the rules of the Immortal Tao in the body of the plant like a golden sunflower.

He was pleasantly surprised and quickly walked over. He raised his hand to pick the immortal medicine, but the moment when his palm was about to land on the golden petals, Ding Hao suddenly became alert and all his hair stood on end.

“Danger!”

Ding Hao dodged at a high speed.

The moment he left the spot, a black light flashed in the void and the place instantly turned into nothingness. Everything was crushed as if the killing intent between heaven and earth had erupted. At the same time, it dissipated almost instantly.

Ding Hao’s face became dignified.

He finally noticed the strangeness of this golden sunflower. A force gushed out and separated the soil and grass at the roots of the sunflower. When he looked again, he was suddenly shocked because a person’s figure was quietly squatting there.

It was a Ceroman expert.

He had a peaceful look and a smile on his face. He was holding his fishtail with both hands and squatting. He raised his head to the sky and opened his mouth. A green emerald branch grew out of his mouth and rushed into the sky. It was the main trunk of the golden sunflower. Faint silver stems grew from his eyes, mouth, nose, and other facial features, which looked extremely terrifying.

He had almost completely merged with this golden sunflower.

Ding Hao seemed to be able to vaguely feel that there was still a trace of vitality in the body of this Ceroman master, but after he looked carefully, he found that the roots of the golden sunflower were growing in the Ceroman’s body, and the vitality Ding Hao had discovered was bursting out from the roots, not from the Ceroman’s body.

On the contrary, this master of the Ceroman Clan had been drained of his essence by the golden sunflower and had died a long time ago. Now, he was more like a flowerpot.

“This is an Asura Golden Sunflower. Legend has it that it grows in the Asura Path and can devour the blood and essence of experts to live. Because there’s constant killing in the Asura Path, this Asura Golden Sunflower grows on the battlefield and devours the bodies of the dead. It can make Asura Path’s rules complete…” The Sword Master gave a conclusion.

According to him, the Asura Golden Sunflower was a legendary plant from the normal eras of the six paths. It could absorb the laws of the Great Tao between heaven and earth, devour the Powers of the Origin of experts, and engrave them in its body. This plant was unique to the Asura Path. It had been lost for a long time, but the Sword Master didn’t expect it to be here.

“In other words, it’s still a treasure.” Ding Hao was amazed. The master of the Ceroman Clan was unlucky enough to be treated as a fertilizer. However, from all signs, it seemed that he had not been killed by the Asura Golden Sunflower. Instead, the sunflower had been rooted in the Ceroman’s body and used him as nourishment after his death.

...

This type of flower was indeed a bit terrifying.

According to the Sword Master, the Asura Golden Sunflower was a rare plant. When it grew up, it might be able to be psychic, develop intelligence, and walk like an animal.

Ding Hao released his Divine Senses, trying to communicate with this golden sunflower.

After a while, the more than four-meter-high golden sunflower seemed to be alive. It suddenly shook its body as if it were dancing happily. Its main roots, like legs, jumped out of the corpse of the Ceroman master and went straight into Ding Hao’s spatial magical weapon in a flash.

“I didn’t expect the Asura Path to be so attractive to an Asura Golden Sunflower.” A smile appeared on Ding Hao’s face. He didn’t spend too much effort communicating with the Asura Golden Sunflower just now. He just said that he would take it back to the real Asura Path, and then the flower voluntarily chose to stay with Ding Hao. Judging from its expression, it even couldn’t wait to go there.
