Rise Of The Demon God

Long Chen sat before the feather, observing it. The feather appeared to have all the colors of the rainbow in a really beautiful pattern.

"Rainbow Phoenix... I wonder what it'll truly look like when I see it," he muttered, gently touching the feather.

As soon as his fingers touched the feather, it started burning in a mysterious golden fire. Before long, it disappeared completely. Not even a speck of dust was left behind.

Xun turned back after observing the marks on the wall only to find the weather missing.

"What did you do with it?"

"I didn't do anything. I just touched it, and it started burning before it disappeared," Long Chen replied as he stood up. "You can't blame me for it."

"The wall seems pretty strong. To make such deep grooves in it, the strength in the attack wasn't small. I have a feeling I can use my strongest attack here, and it won't even make equally deep marks."

Xun nodded, agreeing with Long Chen. "And that's when they weren't even serious when attacking. That's the kind of enemy you want to tame. So drop the thought."

Long Chen didn't answer. He turned around and walked to the door to leave the room.

"The door is locked," he commented, bringing out his Sword of Time.

"My attack might not leave a dent in it, but I have a feeling that this can." He brought his Sword slashing down at the door.

Boom~

A door came flying out, split into two halves. Both halves flew in a different direction, crashing ultimately.

"As expected," A calm voice came out. Long Chen stepped out of the room with Xun.

"Hmm? This is odd. That room led to this room? There's no other door here. It's like the rooms are interconnected. That room leads to this, and this leads to that. There is no other way to leave both the rooms," Xun commented, observing the other room.

"We can try blasting a wall," Long Chen said, raising his sword again.

"Wait. There must be a way out without destroying things here," Xun responded. "Moreover, there are some things that we need to investigate first."

"This room looks somewhat special. We might be able to find something."

"Come, check it out." She pointed towards a shelf that had different kinds of plants resting there. "These should be billions of years older."

"Do you recognize any of these?" Long Chen asked, observing the plants. He couldn't recognize any of them, but he could certainly feel a refreshing aura from them.

There were tens of individual plants kept there, all having a different set of characteristics. Most of them only had leaves, but only one had any fruit.

"I recognize most of them. It's just this one that I don't recognize. I don't think I've seen it before," Xun said, touching the plant with the fruit. "I wonder which fruit it is. Why was it kept here?"

"Might come in handy in the future. Someone must know," Long Chen replied. He picked up the plant and kept it in his ancient ring.

"What about the others? Anything of use?" he asked Xun. "Anything that can be used for cultivation?"

"Nothing like that," Xun replied. "This is the Growth Plant. This helps in the growth of the purity of energy in the air. It must be what's providing such pure energy to the temple."

"This won't come in handy to you though. This is only helpful for the beasts. You might be able to sell it for an awful lot in the Auction Houses though."

"I think this shall give you enough leverage to buy the most expensive of treasures in the auction. All the beasts would be after it to buy it."

"That's interesting. I did hear something about auctions for Godly Beasts. Or maybe I can directly exchange with a Phoenix for her blood? Hopefully, they'll see the benefits."

He kept the plant in his storage ring as well.

"This one here is the, huh..." Xun looked at the next plant, but just as she was another to say something, she felt her head spin.

She momentarily lost her balance but soon controlled herself.

"Are you alright?" Long Chen asked Xun.

"I-i am fine," Xun replied. "Just a little tired, it seems."

She sat on the ground, breathing oddly.

"You really don't look fine." Long Chen sat before her. He placed his hand on the forehead of Xun. "You have a fever now as well."

"What happened to you?" he asked Xun, confused.

Xun looked at her hand. "I-i don't know. I'm feeling really weak suddenly."

"Is this because of the plants? Are they dangerous for humans? That can't be. I'm perfectly fine."

"Maybe because you have poison immunity. It might be the work of a poison for humans," Xun let out.

"I-i need to make an antidote." She stood up weakly, but her head was still spinning.

"Don't stand! Stay seated. Tell me what to do. I'll take care of it."

"S-second plant. Take its leaves and mix them with the leaves of the fourth plant. Mix them with the leaves of the plant with the fruit."

"Use the mix to boost the life healing pills. It should work if I'm right about the poison," Xun explained as her head continued thumping.

"I understand. In the meantime, take this pill. It should help to some extent," Long Chen said, bringing out another life healing pull. He placed that in the mouth of Xun before bringing out his Cauldron.

As soon as he brought a Cauldron, he placed a couple more pills in the cauldron. He tore the leaves of the plants that Xun said and placed them on the cauldron after crushing them.

He brought the unknown plant and placed it on the shelf. He took a leaf from the plant.

"Xun knew about all the plant's except this one. It can be the only one which has poison," he commented as he placed the leaf of the cauldron as well."

After applying some heat for a few minutes, he stopped and opened the cauldron.

He pulled out a pill from the cauldron, which was slightly darker now. He picked up the pill.

"Are you sure this will work?" He asked Xun stepping towards her, but by the time he reached her, she already had her eyes closed. She was sitting by the support of the wall.

"Xun?" Long Chen swiftly checked the breathing of Xun.

"Still breathing even though barely. I can only hope it works.." He opened the mouth of Xun and placed the pill in her mouth before he started waiting.
