Douluo Continent: A Fallen Immortal Descends to Earth, Slaying Gods with a Drunken Sword

Chapter 143 The Ten-Thousand-Year Tribulation of the Floating Flower, a rare beast imbued with divinity, one leaf, one tribulation; one tribulation, one life.

"This soul beast is called the Nightmare Demon, and its lifespan is nearing its end, a three-thousand-year limit..."

A deep, rumbling sound rolled out from the depths of the underground palace.

A giant, jet-black finger, as rugged as a mountain, reached out and touched the ground repeatedly.

Once per click.

The water mirror rippled.

A ferocious soul beast was reflected in the image.

The divine butterfly flapped its wings and shook its head.

The three-eyed golden lion also shook its head.

"This Howling Moon Wolf is inherently ferocious, killing its own kind and devouring its entire clan, for five thousand years..."

The butterfly's antennae trembled slightly; it was still not satisfied.

The three-eyed golden lion let out a jeerful whimper.

The majestic voice faintly betrayed a hint of impatience:
"The Xuanjia Crocodile Rhinoceros, having lost its clan's power struggle, perished within days, eight thousand years ago..."

The butterfly still refused.

"Roar--"

A dragon's roar swept through the underground palace.

It almost awakened the five peerless ferocious beasts that were devouring the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

A heavy breathing sound, like muffled thunder, rang out.

With each breath, a howling wind arose.

"brat……"

"I made this concession because you promised to cultivate diligently in the future."

"If you are still not satisfied, then let's drop this matter."

The butterfly nodded.

Then he urged the three-eyed golden lion to continue ramming into the wall.

"Wait a minute!"

That majestic voice rang out once more.

A hint of helplessness crept into the somber tone.

To think that this mighty Beast God, the ruler of the Star Dou Great Forest, could be so easily manipulated by two Soul Beast cubs.

"...There is one last one."

"This beast is quite peculiar. If he is unable to absorb it, it is because his own abilities are insufficient, and he cannot blame anything else."

The colossal finger covered in black and gold scales suddenly slammed down.

Boom——! ! !
Amidst a deafening roar that shook the earth.

The soul power restriction that blocked the entrance to the passageway.

It vanished inch by inch, like shattered glass.

“Even without restrictions, you might not have an easy time.”

"The reason I stopped you was to protect you."

Once the restrictions are lifted.

The divine butterfly and the three-eyed golden lion could no longer restrain themselves.

It transformed into two streams of light, one golden and one colorful.

They rushed into the passageway without waiting.

however.

The instant they burst out of the tunnel.

They then realized that the road ahead was not smooth sailing.

Another enormous cavern suddenly appeared.

The cave was filled with a strange plant.

The roots are like coiled dragons, radiating a mesmerizing seven-colored halo.

The stems are straight as swords, and the whole thing is emerald green like jade, stretching from the bottom of the cave to the dome without leaving a single gap.

At the top of each plant grow uniquely shaped leaflets, ranging from two or three to seven or eight.

The leaf was not the usual round shape.

The edges are all sharp and angular.

A cold glint appeared.

(Ten Thousand Years of Fate)

The entire cave was occupied by these sword-shaped plants.

Not to mention the enormous three-eyed golden lion.

It is a tiny, divine butterfly.

And don't even think about flying over it without touching it.

Its aura can be sensed.

Besides the vitality unique to plant-type soul beasts that have existed for hundreds or thousands of years.

Only a faint, almost imperceptible, sharp edge remained.

There are no other special features.

"Touch a three-leafed plant and you'll know immediately."

The three-eyed golden lion did as instructed.

It raised its right forepaw, which was covered in golden scales.

He pressed his hand directly against a strange plant in front of him that had three angular leaf petals.

The moment the claw tip touched the emerald green stem.

The entire plant trembled violently.

laugh--

A sharp, condensed energy, almost tangible, pierced towards the golden lion's claws like lightning.

A golden light flashed in the three-eyed golden lion's eyes. Without flinching, golden flames rose from its claws and it slammed down fiercely.

The strange plant instantly turned black and withered.

however.

Just as its life was about to end.

The three leaves at the top suddenly turned a striking blood red.

Whoosh— A sharp aura, three times more potent than before, shot out.

With a shrill sound of breaking through the air.

It shoots directly at the golden lion.

The golden lion still raised its claws to greet them.

But this time.

It roared in pain and quickly looked down.

All that could be seen were golden scales on its claws.

A drop of golden-red blood suddenly oozed out.

This scene.

The butterfly is unbelievable.

A single, unusual plant with three leaves was able to injure the imperial beast.

The gazes of a butterfly and a beast.

At the same time, they looked into the depths of the underground palace with surprise and doubt.

"This soul beast is named 'Life-Crushing Lotus'."

"It has no spirit or intelligence, only the instinct to attack and kill."

"It is a wondrous plant that was conceived from the blood of my lord spilled on this land."

"As the saying goes, 'A fleeting moment, a single leaf brings calamity, and a calamity brings death.'"

"The 'Life-Crushing Ephemeral' has only one chance to unleash its soul skill in its lifetime, and that is when it is about to be destroyed."

"Just now, you triggered its fate."

"Observe the number of its petals..."

"Mitsuba, triple backlash."

"Five leaves, five times the power."

"And so on."

An aura of supreme majesty echoed through the underground palace.

“Since that human boy is a sword cultivator, ‘Life Tribulation Flour’ is most suitable for him.”

"This is a soul beast imbued with divinity, and it can only be found in this one place in the world. This young man is exceptionally lucky."

“Little one, you have a bond with him. I only hope that if he ever rises to power, he will not bring disaster to my soul beast race.”

"Otherwise, we will have to bear the bitter fruit of today's causes in the future."

Upon hearing this, the divine butterfly fluttered up and down, nodding vigorously.

The deep voice finally said:

"in this way……"

"Then choose a 'Life-Binding Flower' for your bonded one."

The butterfly's delicate antennae twitched slightly, and its compound eyes swept across the cavern, which resembled a forest of swords.

The image finally settled in the center of the cave...

The stem of the plant is as thick as a pillar.

The Destiny Blossom, with its twelve gleaming, angular petals, proudly blooms at the top.

"Little guy, have you thought this through? This Twelve-Leaf Life Tribulation Flos has nearly 20,000 years of cultivation."

"Are you sure that human boy can handle it?"

The butterfly nodded again, firmly and urgently.

Starry Sky Forest, middle section.

Li Zhexian, accompanied by Qian Renxue, moved swiftly through the forest.

Just now.

boom--!
Without warning, the ground beneath our feet suddenly cracked open!
Li Zhexian's pupils shrank suddenly. He grabbed Qian Renxue and retreated dozens of feet backward.

Almost at the same moment.

His soul power surged within him.

The names of Dugu Bo and Yu Yuanzhen were almost on the tip of their tongues.

But just then...

The air was filled with smoke and dust.

A strangely shaped plant, radiating a faint seven-colored halo, slowly rose from the crack.

Its twelve angular petals at the top have withered, like a candle flickering in the wind.

The aura of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast reverberated through the forest.

Li Zhexian stopped abruptly, glancing around in surprise and uncertainty.

however.

Except for the rapidly healing fissures in the ground.

There were no further signs of anything unusual.

in front of you.

Only this one was barely clinging to life.

Yet it still exudes a sharp and mysterious aura.

The shape of the petals, and the lingering, almost space-splitting, sharp aura, struck Li Zhexian's mind hard.

This……

It was the soul beast he had been dreaming of.

What made his heart race even more was that the aura emanating from the colorful roots subtly echoed the Dragon Head Sword Falcon Soul Ring he had previously obtained.

"A rare beast, yet another rare beast imbued with divine aura!"

Don't miss out!

Li Zhexian no longer hesitated for a moment.

He bowed and clasped his hands towards the ground.

"Li Zhexian thanks you for your kindness, senior!"

Say it.

The Azure Lotus Sword slashed fiercely at the dying, ancient Destiny-Breaking Flos...
