Chapter 211 Thousand Autumn Flowers

"However, not many people in the lower realms know about this kind of pill, so little girl, if you want to save your brother, you have to go and find him."

Five years is truly a blink of an eye for cultivators.

Lin Zhao nodded, looked at Fan Chen who had put away the clothes, and asked, "Do you know what other connection this secret realm has with the Blue Duck Bird's inheritance, besides being a way to enter the Divine Soul World from here?"

Fan Chen brushed aside his slightly damp blue curly hair, a glint of light flashing in his azure eyes: "I'm not quite sure."

Lin Zhao recalled that when Fan Chen received those clothes, he was clearly very interested in some of the sparkly pendants and jewelry, so he took out a fist-sized luminous pearl from his spatial ring.

"I didn't bring anything good with me when I first arrived here. If you could tell me the connection between the two, this little thing would be a small token of my appreciation."

Fan Chen's gaze hadn't left the luminous pearl since it appeared, and he blinked when he heard Lin Zhao's words.

Faced with such temptation, his reason only allowed him to hold on for a few breaths before he surrendered. "If I can obtain the Blue Duck Bird's inheritance, then all the legacies left behind by the Blue Duck Bird's physical body here will also belong to the person who obtains her inheritance. I guess he wants something from the secret realm."

Lin Zhao thanked Fan Chen and handed him the luminous pearl.

"Does fellow cultivator know where is the most suitable place for cultivation within this secret realm?"

Having received many good things from Lin Zhao, Fan Chen was extremely friendly towards Lin Zhao at this moment.

"Whether it's far away or right before my eyes, the depths of my lake are the perfect place for cultivation."

Lin Zhao's gaze fell on the lake. After thinking for a moment, he clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

As she spoke, she took out a piece of amethyst from her ring: "I'll have to bother you for a while, fellow Daoist."

Fan Chen smiled and accepted the amethyst. "No problem, no problem. I'll take you to the best place for cultivation, but will you be able to move around normally underwater?"

Lin Zhao nodded: "It shouldn't be a problem to wrap myself in spiritual energy and maintain this state for a month."

Fan Chen was relieved: "Come with me."

As Fan Chen's entire body entered the lake, Lin Zhao followed suit.

Upon entering the lake and seeing Fan Chen's long legs transform into a fishtail shimmering with a faint golden hue, Lin Zhao exclaimed, "That tail is truly beautiful!"

Hearing Lin Zhao's praise, Fan Chen raised his chin slightly: "That's right. I am the most beautiful mermaid in our clan in the secret realm. My grandmother said that I have the bloodline of the Mermaid King, which is why my tail is golden. It's a pity that our clan can't leave. I really want to go to the Endless Sea that my grandmother mentioned and see the real Mermaid King."

Lin Zhao said, "You will be able to leave someday."

Fan Chen chuckled: "Then I'll take your good wishes with me."

He led Lin Zhao to a huge rock at the bottom of the lake.

After Fan Chen reached out and flipped the stone over, a large, deep purple clam appeared in their view: "This is it."

As Fan Chen spoke, he flicked the large clam shell with his tail: "Wake up, open your shell, we have a guest."

Lin Zhao: “?”

A muffled, irritated voice came from inside the clam shell: "Okay, okay, wait a minute." Fan Chen turned to Lin Zhao and said, "Wait a minute, this lazybones, he always takes forever to finish."

Lin Zhao had seen it all and nodded.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the clam reluctantly opened a tiny crack. As if it had seen Lin Zhao in the water, the clam suddenly opened its entire shell!
"Why don't you say that this time it's a sweet and soft little girl, not a smelly man carrying deadly poison?!" A chibi-style little girl jumped out of the giant clam. She was wearing a light purple gauze dress, and her whole body was soft and tender. Her round face was extremely cute.

Lin Zhao's expression was subtle when called "little girl" by such a small person.

"Who is this?"

Fan Chen pinched the little girl's cheek with displeasure: "She is my companion spirit beast. Cultivating inside her shell is much more effective than cultivating outside the secret realm; it's like getting twice the result with half the effort."

Lin Zhao was somewhat surprised: "Do merfolk also have companion spirit beasts?"

Aren't merfolk themselves a special kind of spirit beast? Isn't it said that only rare and precious treasures have spirit beasts living alongside them to protect them as they grow?
This little girl and Fan Chen... it feels like they're reversed, with Fan Chen needing to protect this little girl?
Upon hearing this, Fan Chen looked somewhat embarrassed, and the chibi-style girl asked directly, "Didn't you make things clear to the girl?"

Lin Zhao was even more confused.

The chibi-style girl glared at Fan Chen reproachfully: "His merman bloodline isn't pure."

Fan Chen weakly defended himself: "But my grandmother is the chieftain of the merfolk tribe in this secret realm."

Ziyue snorted: "But why don't you say that the reason your tail can turn golden is because of your father's identity as the Million-Year Thousand-Autumn Flower?"

A flower that blooms for a thousand autumns, lasting for a million years?
If it were the old Lin Zhao, she might not have known what this meant, but now that she is an alchemist, she understands it all too well.

The Thousand Autumn Flower is an extremely rare spiritual plant, also known as a divine beast in the spiritual plant world. It is born as a level four spiritual plant and has a natural camouflage ability, allowing it to disguise itself as any kind of plant.

Upon reaching level seven, one can transform directly into human form without undergoing a heavenly tribulation.

Grandma Honghu said, "Thousand Autumn Flower... I haven't heard of it for many years. This thing is created by the creation of heaven and earth, but its effect as a medicinal material is not the so-called realm improvement, but that it can change fate and reclaim blood."

"Change fate and pursue blood?" These four words shocked Lin Zhao.

"The Thousand Autumn Flower is known as 'One flower for a thousand autumns, one emperor for ten thousand ages,' meaning that it can create emperors. The Taiyi Immortal Emperor, a peak alchemist who appeared tens of millions of years ago, reached that realm only after obtaining the Thousand Autumn Flower. Ordinary methods to improve aptitude are already sought after by the cultivation world, but the Thousand Autumn Flower can do much more than just improve aptitude. This kid's mother should only be a branch of the Merfolk, with a weak bloodline, and his father has no Merfolk blood at all, yet he can possess the bloodline of the Merfolk Emperor, which is due to the Thousand Autumn Flower."

The Immortal Emperor is practically a mythical figure to Lin Zhao now.

Granny Honghu noticed Lin Zhao's thoughts and laughed, "Do you really think that the Taiyi Immortal Emperor has the potential to become an emperor? He was originally just a genius in the Upper Realm. To become an emperor, it takes millions of years of accumulation to produce such a prodigy."

Lin Zhao understood.

"Isn't this defying fate...? It's not just defying fate, it can even elevate one's bloodline."

"The world is vast and full of wonders. What you have seen so far is just the tip of the iceberg. In this vast universe, the Thousand Autumn Flower is extremely rare. Your teacher and I have followed the Ancestral Phoenix to this day, and apart from hearing that the Taiyi Immortal Emperor had obtained it, we have never heard of the Thousand Autumn Flower, let alone actually seen it. So it is not surprising that it has this ability. Moreover, the Thousand Autumn Flower only changes the conditions. When you reach a certain level, what determines a cultivator's level is often their state of mind."

Regardless, Lin Zhao looked at Fan Chen and the other person with a touch of emotion.

She asked the chibi-style girl, "Have you told anyone about his identity?"

Zi Yue, hands on her hips, said, "Of course not! I only said that because you have the Ancient Phoenix Luck on you!"
