Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 593 The Poisonous Flower Spanning One Kilometer (Daily Written Version)

After traveling only a few thousand meters forward, the scene before them changed.

It was a vibrant green, an astonishingly vibrant green.

A vibrant green sheen covered the earth, and the seemingly haphazardly arranged emerald green plants spread outwards across vast expanses of land. A faint emerald green mist rose upwards and then gradually spread outwards.

"What kind of plant is this?" Huo Yuhao, who was originally walking in front, stopped and looked surprised.

These emerald green plants extend to both sides. They are not tall, only about half a meter high. Each emerald green plant has nine oddly shaped leaves. These leaves are somewhat like human hands, but with seven fingers. Some of the larger ones even have nine fingers.

At their tops bloomed large, emerald-green flowers. The emerald-green mist emanated from the stamens of these flowers, slowly spreading outwards and then merging into the seven-colored poisonous miasma.

The colorful poisonous miasma here is predominantly green.

Looking further into the distance, with their astonishing eyesight, the two could see vast swirling clouds of miasma behind these lush green plants. They were slowly settling downwards, but their density seemed no less than that of the clouds that had filled the sky before.

No wonder we didn't observe it from the air earlier; it turns out the densest poisonous clouds here are sinking. Without a doubt, where they sink must be a valley.

"It is the Seven Wonders of Azure Phosphorus Flower."

Since only their own people were here, Qian Daoliu naturally didn't need to stay in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea indefinitely. He slowly emerged and began to explain to the two of them.

"The Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorus? What's that?"

Wang Dong'er asked with some curiosity. Shrek Academy's curriculum also taught how to identify plants, since some of the plants were also spirit beasts. However, she had never even heard of a crop called the Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers.

Huo Yuhao was the same; even he had never heard of such a strange object.

"The Seven Deadly Poisons of the Azure Phosphorus Flower is one of the most poisonous plants in the world. Its toxicity is not only highly corrosive, earning it the title of the number one corrosive, but it also possesses extremely strong neurotoxicity. Once in contact with it, not only will the body be corroded, but one will also suffer extremely intense pain instantly."

"However, this Azure Phosphorous Seven-Flaw Flower is extremely rare and precious. It is the dream of almost every plant-type soul master. If a plant-type soul master can find an Azure Phosphorous Seven-Flaw Flower that has become a plant-type soul beast and fuse it into his own soul ring, then he will possess the Azure Phosphorous Seven-Flaw Flower's deadly poison."

"As for the power of the Seven Absolute Flowers of Azure Phosphorescence..."

At this point, Qian Daoliu gestured for Huo Yuhao to throw something over.

After a moment's thought, Huo Yuhao suddenly threw a mithril brick weighing about ten kilograms towards the area where the poisonous fog was most concentrated. As the mithril brick swept across the colorful miasma in the air, its colors quickly became multicolored.

However, just as it reached the sky above those emerald green mists, a shocking and terrifying change occurred.

The moment the mithril brick came into contact with the emerald green poisonous mist, thick plumes of emerald green smoke suddenly rose from the mithril brick, and then its size began to shrink at an astonishing rate.

When it landed on the ground, it was only half its original size. After three breaths, the hard, highly corrosion-resistant metal simply vanished.

"What kind of poison is this?"

Huo Yuhao's eyes widened at the sight, and Wang Dong'er's face also turned deathly pale.

This kind of potent poison would be impossible for even a Title Douluo to handle, right?

"Little girl, you should know who I am, shouldn't you?"

Qian Daoliu did not answer directly, but turned to look at Wang Dong'er first.

Wang Dong'er nodded. When she learned from the memories transmitted by Huo Yuhao that a high priest and great venerable one from the Spirit Hall from ten thousand years ago lived deep within Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, her surprise was indescribable.

However, after learning about Qian Daoliu, Wang Dong'er was surprised to find that the so-called evil Spirit Hall was not as terrible as recorded in history. This angelic high priest was, most of the time, just an old man with a childlike heart.

"The growth scale of the Seven Wonders of Azure Phosphorus here is somewhat beyond my expectations. Although the Seven Wonders of Azure Phosphorus were an indispensable part of the poisonous miasma in Sunset Forest, their scale should not have been this large."

"There are no light-attribute soul beasts in Sunset Forest, so our Spirit Hall knows very little about this forest. And if I remember correctly, as far back as I can remember, Sunset Forest seems to have been the territory of the Dugu clan."

"Their whole family relies on selling the various poisonous herbs and insects of Sunset Forest for money. We, the Spirit Hall, just buy whatever we need directly, so we don't know much about this place."

"The Dugu clan are all experts in poisons. If you really touch their vital organs, it will be a real headache. Moreover, Sunset Forest is within the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, so it doesn't usually receive much attention."

"But these Jade Phosphorous Seven Wonders are growing so lushly and covering such a large area, they don't look like they grew naturally."

Qian Daoliu looked at the dense poisonous miasma in front of him, becoming more and more puzzled.

"Grandpa Qian, the Seven-Colored Azure Phosphorescent Flowers here are growing so lushly. Could it be because they've lost their natural predators, similar to how many high-level soul beasts in Sunset Forest have died out?"

Upon hearing Wang Dong'er call him "Grandpa Qian," Qian Daoliu was overwhelmed with mixed feelings, but he still shook his head.

"Girl, you've got the order wrong. It's not that the number of high-level soul beasts in Sunset Forest has decreased, which has caused the Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers to grow more lush and denser. Rather, it's that the area covered by the Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers has expanded, which has led to the scarcity of soul beasts in Sunset Forest."

As he spoke, Qian Daoliu pointed and said, "Girl, Yuhao, have you noticed the leaves of these flowers? They're like human fingers."

"Although most of these leaves have seven fingers, when one's cultivation level reaches ten thousand years, two more buds will sprout on the stems of these Jade Scale Seven Wonders Flowers, and once they grow, they will become the so-called Jade Scale Nine Wonders Flowers."

"This substance is a rare poison in the world. Apart from Dugu Bo, there are probably very few people who can cure it. There may not be more than three or five of these plants in the Star Dou Forest, but here, there are more than a hundred of them."

"Since such rare and precious crops can grow to such an incredible scale here, there must be an extremely favorable environment for their growth in the canyon behind them, which is why it can provide them with enough nutrients."

"Faced with a poison array of this scale, even a 100,000-year-old soul beast would only suffer the fate of having its flesh and bones dissipate and turning into a thick liquid in a short time. So how can it be considered a natural enemy?"

Moreover, a closer look reveals that the arrangement of these Seven Absolute Phosphorous Flowers is so neat that it's almost as if they were arranged by human hands!

Otherwise, no matter what, the Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolutes Flower itself could not grow to be one kilometer wide, and its extension on both sides would likely encircle the entire canyon, right?
