The huge flower was rooted into the white snow, swaying beneath the dark clouds. Amidst the thunder, the crystal-like petals faintly glowed pale white. Each time the flower was struck by lightning, the glow on its petals would glow brighter.

“Boom!” “Boom!”

One lightning strike after another struck down, striking both the Demon King and the blood Iris.

The demon king stopped insisting on protecting him after observing the generally fine Iris. Instead, he stood the Three-Bladed Halberd on its own before putting up a dark red transparent boundary and sitting inside.

The blood Iris was like a flower on a high mountain amid the thunderclouds; wind and rain couldn’t shake it, but instead made it more open and reckless.

In a short time, a dozen huge thunderbolts had already struck down.

The petals of the flower had turned from blue to blood-red, and there was a faint glow of light swimming inside.

The blood-red colour climbed from the base of the petals until it reached the top of the petals. Once the entire petals of the Blood Iris were red, a dazzling light shone through the cave.

The light was so bright that the Demon King wailed and fled into the divine three-bladed halberd.

Bai Lixin had successfully advanced to the Golden Elixir stage!

Outside the cave, the eyes of the Immortal Venerable’s emissaries flinched as they felt the strange sensation and stared into the ice cave in unison, their faces full of shock.

The blood Iris! That was the aura of the blood Iris!!!

A look of ecstasy appeared in their eyes. They never thought that they could find it without any trouble! They had searched for more than ten years, but it turned out to be hidden in this cave!

This damnable Shui Wuxin had secretly hidden the Iris in the ice cave, intending to take it for himself!

If the two brothers had not been interested in the lightning guord today, they would have been kept in the dark.

The ground trembled even more violently as the thunder roared. In addition, the ground began to crack slowly, extending out from the ice cave.

The two men that were about to walk over paused, looking hesitantly into the ice cave.

Although they came from the Upper Three Thousand Worlds and their cultivation levels had already reached the Great Perfection of the Yuanying stage, they were still somewhat timid in the face of the 99 Lightning tribulation.

They would have to wait until after the ice lightning punishment was over to be on the safe side.

They were not afraid that the Iris would be damaged by the tribulations because, according to historical records, the Iris was originally a divine flower that was born in the Immortal Realm, in a thunder pond. The thunder pond, as its name implies, was often filled with lightning and thunder, and the Iris fed on the thunder, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon to temper its soul.

It is precisely because the Iris grew in such a harsh environment that made it so difficult to obtain it. The Immortal Venerable had heard from somewhere that a demon practitioner in the lower realms had inadvertently obtained the Iris, so he sent them to look for it.

But they came a little late. The Iris had disappeared. The Immortal Venerable reprimanded them and put out a wanted notice in the lower realms.

When they get the Iris, they will have to ask for Shui Wuxin! That thief dared to hide the Iris and not present it to the Immortal Venerable! Let’s see if the Immortal Venerable doesn’t destroy this intermediate world!

The ice and lightning torture was not yet over, and the two could only spend their days anxiously waiting for the end of the punishment.

They waited anxiously outside, but they were unaware that inside the cave, the two were already about to escape.

After Bai Lixin’s advancement, the appearance of the Iris changed radically. Its originally glowing petals were now dazzling like a bright sun.

Amidst the dark clouds, Feng Baixiao’s hands were covered in a light blue glow. He plucked away the clouds and searched for a long time before finally finding the tiny lightning head deep within the dark clouds.

After finding the lightning head, Feng Baixiao chanted an incantation in his hand and then took a jade vase out of space. The jade vase opened up and the lightning bolt was sucked in.

The process of extracting the lightning head, which was supposed to be very difficult, turned out to be extremely easy because of Bai Lixin’s presence.

Feng Baixiao felt the power rolling through his body, and an unprecedented throb suddenly welled up in his heart.

He put away the lightning head and floated down to the ground. He saw Bai Lixin, who had transformed into the blood Iris. Bai Lixin had just advanced, and the air was filled with abundant spiritual energy. Feng Baixiao was only slightly stunned, but he did not sit down and take advantage of Bai Lixin’s power to advance.

He glanced around and saw the three-bladed halberd lying on the ground, and then looked at Bai Lixin, who was emitting divine light around him, instantly understanding. The blood Iris was a divine flower and the light emanating from its body was divine light. This divine light happened to be kryptonite to demons.

Feng Baixiao stroked the three-bladed halberd and shook his head with laughter. It seemed that this demon king was still not enough. He was easily forced into the three-bladed halberd by a demon cultivator who had just entered the Golden Elixir cultivation level. If this was all he was capable of, how could he achieve the great things he had hoped for?

Feng Baixiao reinserted the three-bladed halberd into his body with a secret sigh.

At the same time, the spiritual qi that had been in the air was absorbed back into the Iris’ body again. The spiritual qi in the Iris continued to gather, and its cultivation level climbed.

The first level of the Golden Elixir, the second level, the third level, the fourth level, and the fifth level of the Golden Elixir!

After reaching the fifth level of Golden Elixir in a short period, the cultivation speed slowed down and there was much less spiritual energy in the air.

Feng Baixiao was standing beside the Iris. His cold, hard, steel-like heart could not help but soften as he watched the Iris’ greedy feeding.

This little fellow had been born against the odds in the harsh environment of the Immortal Realm. Not only was he not constrained by the environment, but he rose against the tide and achieved the title of the number one wonder flower in the Immortal Realm. He was so fragile, so fragile that he would shatter at the slightest squeeze, yet he was so strong, so strong that he lived in the thunder pools that everyone was afraid of.

With these thoughts in mind, Feng Baixiao’s heart thumped, and his hand gently stroked the petals and stem of the blood Iris for a moment.

The Iris, which was still sucking in the spiritual qi, suddenly gave a pause and shuddered desperately.

Feng Baixiao looked amused, so he touched the stem a few more times.

It was as if he had touched a switch and the Iris began to shake incessantly.

Finally, when the Iris could take no more, its petals and limbs began to stretch outwards, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a man of unparalleled beauty.

His hair was light green, his eyes a deep red. His face was like a crown of jade, his eyes were full of charm, and the way he moved his hands was even more graceful. The petals had turned into limbs, the stamen turned into the head, the leaves turned into clothes wrapped around the body and the stem……The stem shrank into a petite mass between the legs. It was Feng Baixiao’s first time seeing Bai Lixin take shape. He originally thought Bai Lixin’s petals were the head, the branches and leaves were limbs, and the stem was the abdomen. Unexpectedly, the stem is actually ……

No wonder the blood Iris was trembling incessantly ……

Feng Baixiao’s face was slightly red, and he looked at Bai Lixin in embarrassment: “The ignorant are innocent! I did not mean it. ”

Bai Lixin gave Feng Baixiao a fierce glare. He rolled his eyes and then said angrily, “Tell me, why don’t you just meditate on the side? Why did you come over here to provoke me? If you touch my real body at will, what if I go off the rails? ”

Feng Baixiao nodded his head repeatedly, “I was being rash.”

He freely admitted his mistake, and Bai Lixin was a bit stunned. He didn’t know what to say.

He looked up awkwardly at the entrance of the cave and happened to see the dark clouds gradually dispersing overhead. He jumped to say, “You found the lightning head?”

Feng Baixiao nodded his head and shook the jade bottle in his hand, “This is it.”

“What about what you promised me before? Are you heading to the Upper Elemental Immortal Realm now or in a few days? You are not from the Sky Feather Clan, so how will you step through the void and go there? ”

Feng Baixiao casually squeezed in the space, and a white feather appeared out of thin air in the middle of his index finger and thumb. “This is a feather that Chunyin left me before going back. It is infused with her power, and I can step through the void once to enter the Upper Elemental Immortal Realm.”

“Speaking of which, Chunyin prepared this item for Xuanyuan Yixiao before she lost her memory. But then her memory loss came so suddenly that she forgot all about Xuanyuan Yixiao and instead treated me, a bystander, as a lifesaver and gave me this feather. Now that I have taken the lightning head, my mission in this world is complete. I can leave now if I want to. But when will it be convenient for you to leave? Do you still want those things from Xuanyuan Peak? ”

From the moment Shui Wuxin deceitfully left me here, I have been considered dead to the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and Shui Wuxin. Since I am already a dead person, I should not appear in public again. Besides, my aura spread out when I advanced, so I think those two emissaries are already waiting. If I go out at this time, would I not be throwing myself into the net?”

“If that’s the case, let’s leave now! Although your cultivation has increased by leaps and bounds, you are still only at a mere Golden Elixir cultivation level, so you will have some problems in entering the Upper Elemental Immortal Realm. The only option is to transform into the Iris and I will put you in my space.”

……

The thunder tribulation gradually stopped. Listening to the last strike fall, the two messengers, unwilling to lag, rushed into the cave almost at the same time to look for the blood Iris.

But on re-entering the cave, they only found two burnt and blackened bodies lying in the cave.

They did not even spare the two bodies a glance as they began to search the cave carefully and diligently for the whereabouts of the Blood Iris.

However, they searched for a long time but found nothing.

One of the emissaries looked at the cave, which he had almost turned upside down, and roared, “Shui Wuxin, I’ll make you spit out as much of the Blood Iris as you’ve eaten! You wait for me! ”
