2211 Human-eating Flower
“The price is too great!”
When he saw that, apart from admiration, Xie Qingcheng could not help but lament.
The Mars Stone, Mercury Ice and Venus Stone were all priceless treasures.
It was definitely a huge opportunity and gain to be able to obtain three treasures. However, it was also because of this that Su Zimo released too many trump cards.
!!Those methods had a relatively long recovery time. If he continued forward, it would be difficult for him to release them again on the Earth Ranking.
This was extremely disadvantageous for Su Zimo’s future.
Furthermore, Su Zimo was severely injured by the metal cyclone and was covered in injuries. It would take a lot of mental and Essence Qi to heal his injuries.
It might take a long time and all of that would have a huge impact on him.
The expressions of the elders of Heaven and Earth Academy turned grimmer as well.
In their opinion, if they could remind Su Zimo, the best decision right now was to stop advancing and stop while he was ahead.
The Mars Stone, Mercury Ice and Venus Stone alone were unimaginable gains!
Xie Qingcheng and the academy elders’ worries were not unfounded.
However, they did not know that Su Zimo was the Green Lotus True Body and his regeneration capabilities were extremely shocking to begin with.
Right now, although he was only an Earth Immortal, his Essence Spirit was at the Heaven Immortal realm. Coupled with the fact that he was the Green Lotus True Body, he could completely undergo Blood Rebirth and his regeneration capabilities were even more terrifying than Heaven Immortals!
Although the injuries caused by the metal cyclone looked terrifying, they were only superficial wounds for him and had almost no effect.
He would recover to his original state before long.
As for Su Zimo’s trump cards, he did not care even if he released them in advance.
The Green Lotus True Body had too many methods and trump cards. What he revealed was only a part of them.
Nine Heavens.
After Su Zimo sent the Venus Stone into his consciousness and it was devoured by the h.e.l.l Suppression Tripod, the gigantic metal cyclone outside dissipated.
Standing on the spot, Su Zimo took a breather and looked at the ranking.
He did not waste much time this time round and his ranking was still at 500.
If nothing went wrong in Level 4, he would definitely be able to rank in the top hundred!
For him, it was fine as long as he could make it into the top hundred of the elimination round of the Nine Heavens.
As for the final ranking, a ranking battle was required.
Su Zimo rested for a while and the wounds on his body gradually healed. They stopped bleeding and healed at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed!
Thereafter, he arrived at the teleportation formation and ascended to Level 4.
After reaching Level 4, Su Zimo released his spirit consciousness and looked over.
Compared to the previous three levels, Level 4 looked much more normal and was extremely similar to the outside world. Mountain ranges stood tall and green water surrounded them. The vegetation was sumptuous and lush.
In this s.p.a.ce, one could sense a rich Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. It was filled with vitality, birdsong, fragrance and was peaceful.
Su Zimo did not advance rashly.
Since it was the elimination round of the Nine Heavens, cultivators would definitely not be able to pa.s.s it easily!
He surveyed his surroundings and his gaze landed on a cultivator.
Coincidentally, this person was from Heaven and Earth Academy and his name was Liu Ping.
Liu Ping was ranked last in the outer sect compet.i.tion and was not ranked on the Earth Ranking prediction this time round.
Although he did not say anything, he was indignant and wanted to make use of this opportunity to prove himself!
Liu Ping advanced carefully with a calm expression.
Suddenly!
The gra.s.s beneath his feet grew wildly without warning and coiled around his legs, extending down his lower body as though it wanted to bind his entire body!
The edges of the long gra.s.s were extremely sharp and serrated.
The moment it coiled around him, wounds appeared on Liu Ping’s body and fresh blood flowed.
“Go!”
Liu Ping was rather calm and did not panic. He channeled his spirit consciousness and released some sort of immortal art immediately. His hands transformed into two swords that slashed at the gra.s.s on his body.
At the same time, he consumed an elixir pill swiftly and the blood on his wounds gradually stopped flowing.
Although the gra.s.s was still growing wildly, he could protect them temporarily with the help of his immortal art.
Liu Ping channeled his blood qi and hollered once more.
Piak! Piak!
A crisp sound came from his legs and the wild gra.s.s was snapped by him instantly.
However, the surrounding gra.s.s seemed to have sensed something and extended over. Countless gra.s.s and vines filled with thorns…
Although Liu Ping resisted continuously, the vegetation here was endless.
In that short period of time, he had only taken a few steps when he sank deeper and deeper.
Suddenly!
Sensing danger, Liu Ping dodged to the side hurriedly. However, he was entangled by many plants and his movements were sluggish. As such, his body merely s.h.i.+fted slightly.
Pfft!
Behind him, a gigantic mouth descended from the skies and bit his shoulder, ripping it apart!
s.h.i.+ng!
Blood gushed out!
Liu Ping’s arm was torn off by that huge mouth in a tragic manner!
If he had dodged slower, his head would have been bitten off!
“Ah!”
Liu Ping cried out in pain and turned back instinctively. He could not help but turn pale with fright.
The b.l.o.o.d.y mouth that bit off his arm did not come from any demon beast. Instead, it was a seemingly ordinary flower beside him!
But now, the middle of the flower changed continuously, turning into a mouth filled with fangs that chewed his arm as blood spurted everywhere.
This seemingly beautiful flower ate human fles.h.!.+
Suddenly, Liu Ping realized that everything around him was filled with endless killing intent that could take his life!
More and more vines coiled around him and the vegetation grew wildly.
The human-eating flower devoured his broken arm in a few moments and bit towards him once more.
Just as Liu Ping was about to struggle and retreat, he smelled a strange fragrance.
Immediately, he felt his head spin and his limbs went limp.
“This is bad!”
Liu Ping’s heart skipped a beat.
‘This is where I die!’
The fragrance was also emitted by the flower and could clearly affect the movements of cultivators.
If Liu Ping was in his peak condition, he would definitely be able to notice something unusual and neutralize the fragrance with a surge of his blood qi.
But now that he was here, he had already used many immortal arts and divine powers. His Essence Qi was expended and his Essence Spirit was a little weak.
Under such circ.u.mstances, this human-eating flower could take his life!
Liu Ping’s expression was filled with despair as he watched the bloodied mouth descend from the skies and chomp down viciously. However, he could not muster any strength at all.
Just as Liu Ping was about to give up, a strange change happened in his surroundings.
The mouth of the flower paused above his head.
Although it was extremely close to him, it did not bite down!
Right on the heels of that, as though it was shocked, the flower retracted in a strange manner and reverted to its tender and beautiful form, swaying gently in an extremely obedient manner.
