Chapter 254: A World Within A Flower!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
The forest fire grew stronger, turning into a wall of raging inferno over ten meters tall which burnt steadily up the mountain. A crazy din created by innumerable birds and beasts could be heard from the mountain, sounding exceptionally bone-chilling. Countless birds could be seen fleeing into the sky, disappearing into the distance.
Some of the birds were so startled that they flew directly into the fire. Most of the beasts incapable of flight were also dashing madly towards the center of the mountain.
The multitude of experts surrounding the mountain showed no feelings on their faces. It was just some birds and beasts after all. For the sake of the Purple Gold Ginseng, they would not feel anything wrong with burning ten more Peach Mountains!
The fire raged on for three days and three nights, turning the sky dark with smoke. An eerie red glow illuminated the land.
By the time the fire passed, all the peach trees were completely charred black. The peach blossoms which were fluttering all over the place had all been burnt to ashes. Many a part of the mountain was still spouting thick, black smoke.
"Only the main peak is left now. That peach tree there is really strange, it was able to grow to such a size, but it's actually still a normal tree. What a pity!"
Li Cang Hai and the rest walked upon the charred ground and looked towards the towering peach tree in the distance.
"Maybe it's a mutated peach tree. Logically, such a large tree should have turned into a spiritual being long ago. But since it's not a spirit tree, it would only become firewood no matter how tall it grew."
The female cultivator felt somewhat sad about the mountain. This peach forest was truly exceptionally beautiful. But compared to the Purple Gold Ginseng, it was truly not worth a mention at all!
At this time, a fishing line descended from the sky and right onto the peach tree atop the mountain!
The tree was filled with countless beautiful pink peach blossoms, covering the branches densely.
The fishing hook landed directly atop a particular peach blossom, but an unexpected thing happened at this moment!
The hook actually sunk right into the flower! That's right, it sunk into it!
"Huh? What's going on?"
Bei Feng widened his eyes with shock. It seemed like this flower contained an individual space within it! The hook disappeared into the flower and when it reappeared, Bei Feng found that it had entered into a different space!
Bei Feng fell silent for a long moment before he uttered a sentence with disbelief, "A world within a flower!"
This was too shocking a matter. That small peach blossom actually held a small world within it!
Bei Feng could see that the small world inside the flower was not very big. The vision granted him by the System was fifty meters around the hook. At this time, it would be more accurate to call the 'small world' a space. The entire area was only around forty, fifty meters wide. The walls of this space were all pink, the same color as the peach blossoms' petals.
A two-meter-long bed was placed in the center of the space. A figure could be seen, curled up within the curtained bed. It seemed as though the person was sleeping.
"Was this space created by someone? If so, just how high is that person's cultivation?!" Bei Feng mumbled dumbly. This situation was truly too shocking. To think that there was actually someone sleeping in the flower!
'A Peach Immortal resides in a Peach Temple on a Peach Mountain. The Peach Immortal plants peach trees and uses peach sprigs to pay for wine.'
For some reason, Bei Feng recalled this strange peach song. This was how a true Peach Immortal was supposed to be!
At the same time, Li Cang Hai and the rest were still at the bottom of the mountain, watching the last blazes of the fire. The fire had died out halfway up the mountain, and was unable to near the giant peach tree. Perhaps it was because the peach tree sucked up too much nutrients from the soil which resulted in there being very little plants around it to spread the advance of the fire.
"Looks like the Purple Gold Ginseng is most likely on the mountain peak. Go and dig it out for me! It doesn't matter even if it's hiding deep underground!"
Li Cang Hai's voice contained an undisguised excitement. At the same time, he moved quickly to stand beside a middle-aged man who was blocking Chi Song, blocking the old man from making any unexpected movements.
The group of Xiantian Lords and Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts rushed towards the mountain peak and began to search carefully again. Although the fire had already died out, the temperature remained rather high. Still, it was unable to affect the Xiantian Lords anymore.
"Clan Lord, we've searched everywhere, but there's no signs of it." A Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert walked forwards and reported humbly.
Li Cang Hai furrowed his brows heavily and said, "How can this be! Are you sure that you've looked everywhere?"
"Clan Lord, we've already searched everywhere twice, but there's still no result," the Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert confirmed.
"No, there's one place that you all have not looked at yet."
Daoist Chi Song had not spoken a single word since he arrived. But at this time, he suddenly opened his mouth.
His old face was devoid of feelings at this moment, and there was no way to tell what he was thinking.
"Daoist Lord, you mean that big tree?"
Li Cang Hai was not a stupid person and reacted immediately. "Quick, go and uproot that tree for me!"
Li Cang Hai did not stop to think about why the scheming old man would remind him. He immediately sent down his orders.
"Yes!"
The Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert felt his mouth twitching uncomfortably. 'An exalted Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert like me actually turned into a tree digger today...'
Although the peach tree appeared huge, that was all there was to it. It was basically a normal tree. Its bark and wood was extremely sturdy, however. Twenty Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts surrounded the tree and started chopping at it with their weapons!
Strangely, a bunch of flowers would disappear from the branches with every slash on its trunk. It was like the flowers had never been there in the first place.
Still, there were simply too many peach blossoms on the tree to notice. In the first place, nobody would ever be bored enough to count the number of flowers on this tree.
Under the combined effort of twenty Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts, a sizeable gash finally appeared on the side of the tree!
At this time, half of the flowers on the tree had already disappeared. With the disappearance of the flowers, Bei Feng suddenly saw with his own eyes that the space he was in was expanding slowly!
"Boom!"
The sky darkened without anyone noticing, and numerous forked lightning flashed across the sky like agile dragons! Claw-shaped lightning could be seen poking out of the thunder clouds.
Li Cang Hai merely spared a single glance at the sky and ignored it. The fire had been burning for a few days, so it was completely natural for rain to follow.
Streaks of lightning flashed repeatedly in the sky, as if a group of devils were dancing wildly in the clouds.
"Peng!"
"Kacha!"
Under the combined strength of the twenty Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts, the towering tree finally leaned to one side and began to fall!
The secret space suddenly shuddered, and Bei Feng's fishing hook swung violently before managing to hook onto the wall of the secret space. As the tree fell, the fishing line grew taut and the peach blossom was forcibly plucked away from the branch!
"HAHAHA!"
Daoist Chi Song suddenly raised his head laughed hysterically, causing Li Cang Hai who was standing beside him to feel annoyed and mystified. What was this old bastard doing this time?
Under the gazes of the crowd, Chi Song suddenly knelt down heavily. "Heavenly Law Sect's Chi Song congratulates the Sage for breaking the seal!"
"Sage? Is there anyone else here?"
The four did not know what nonsense Chi Song was trying this time. Their divine sense spread out in all directions, but nothing out of the ordinary was detected by them.
"Has it already been 10,000 years?"
A light sigh echoed out, sounding extremely ethereal and illusory. Just hearing the voice caused one to feel as if they were looking at the person.
"Motherf*cker! A zombie?!" Bei Feng choked on his saliva.
Within the peach blossom space, a figure in a light pink dress so long it could sweep the ground suddenly spoke. A pair of enchanting eyelashes fluttered and the eyelids opened to reveal clear eyes as cold as an icy lake, capable of reflecting other's hearts!
Long, jet-black hair as clear as crystal flowed down the figure's back, held up by a simple pink ribbon in a butterfly knot.
The person's skin was as fair as jade, and looked so soft as if it could be broken with a light flick with a finger. A single peach blossom sat on her neck, further enhancing her sharp collar bones. An aura of indifference surrounded the figure, as if she was a fairy untouched by the filth of mortals!
