"Yes,"
Lin Chen explained calmly, "I am an alchemist, so I have read various ancient texts about strange dicinal herbs. Among them, there was one that recorded sothing about the Blood Ghost Flower, but I have never seen one in reality."
The palace lord’s eyes stared at Lin Chen with surprise, "You are also an alchemist?"
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "It’s a hobby, my strength is average... Not only do I refine pills, but I also know how to do refinent, with the sa average strength. Jack of all trades, master of none."
The palace lord exclaid, "You really are talented and versatile. Since you know about the Blood Ghost Flower, that makes things easier. Yes, I hope you can go to the Blood Wind Demon Domain and bring back at least one Blood Ghost Flower for ."
Lin Chen’s tone was slightly strange, "The ancient books record that although the Blood Ghost Flower is bizarre, it actually doesn’t have any special dicinal effects. It cannot be used to enhance strength, nor can it aid in comprehending the Heavenly Dao. Oh, if it has one use, that is it can detoxify poisons."
"When the Blood Ghost Flower blooms, there often arises a kind of poisonous insect called the Black Hair Gu near it. These insects are tiny and hard to discern with the naked eye, but their poison is extrely potent. Often, people see the Blood Ghost Flower blooming beautifully, with enchanting fragrance, assu it’s a natural treasure, and co closer to observe it. But then they beco deluded by the fragrance. At that mont, the Black Hair Gu will erge, attack the person nearby, and parasitize inside their body."
"It’s said that a person parasitized by the Black Hair Gu will be afflicted by a strange poison and die from their entire body rotting, especially their face, which will be bitten beyond recognition by the Black Hair Gu. Moreover, the Black Hair Gu is very special. They seem like creatures not of this world. Even the powers of immortals often cannot contend with them."
"There is a saying that for a person attacked and parasitized by the Black Hair Gu, the best and most dignified approach is to imdiately let their Primordial Spirit escape and abandon their physical body. Otherwise, once the poison of the Black Hair Gu spreads, not only will their entire body be corrupted and rot away, but even their Primordial Spirit will be contaminated and eventually undergo imnse suffering before dying."
"However, all things in nature have their counters; one thing can overco another. The Black Hair Gu may be powerful, and immortals and divine spirits may struggle to defend against it, but it fears the juice of the Ghost Face Flower. It is said that by skillfully using the juice of the Ghost Face Flower, one might be able to expel all the Black Hair Gu from their body."
"Palace lord, are you asking to find this Ghost Face Flower? Could it be that soone has been parasitized by the Black Hair Gu and needs the Ghost Face Flower to detoxify?"
As Lin Chen spoke, the palace lord’s eyes imperceptibly fluctuated, especially when Lin Chen ntioned how especially "the face would be bitten beyond recognition." Her gaze beca extrely complex.
Facing Lin Chen’s inquiring gaze, the palace lord quickly recovered her composure, "Yes, I have a friend who has been infected by the Black Hair Gu. I’m thinking of helping her, but as I’ve said before, this matter is unrelated to the Great Wilderness Palace and the grand sche of things, so this can only be considered a personal request from ."
"Because the Domain Gate might close, if I send others, I’m afraid they might not be able to return. But you possess the Great Divine Power of Star Sky Jump, coming and going as you please, so this won’t be challenging for you. I think that, if things go smoothly, it shouldn’t take too much ti."
Lin Chen acknowledged with a grunt and further inquired, "There’s quite a force on the other side. If I have to pass through the Domain Gate to get back to the Blood Wind Demon Domain, just give a demon race helper and it won’t be difficult for to blend in. But where exactly are these Blood Ghost Flowers? Do you have a specific location?"
The palace lord spoke softly, "The Blood Wind Demon Domain, within the Dark Dragon Mountain Range, the area is a bit vast, but I have reliable information that there are definitely Blood Ghost Flowers there."
Since the palace lord had confird the information, Lin Chen didn’t ask any further, "Is there any other information?"
The palace lord was silent for two seconds before speaking, "This piece of information is sothing I’ve just received, sent from Gold-plated City."
Lin Chen looked at the Palace lord with confusion and said nothing.
Gold-plated City, wasn’t it still under the control of the Demon God Temple?
As soon as the Palace lord spoke, she didn’t hide anything, "Not everyone wants to leave their hotown and leave the Black Sky Demon Domain. ngxi and others forcibly detained all the powerhouse sect mbers passing through here, making them form a military to battle against us."
"Perhaps my personal arrival made many on the other side feel pressured. They knew that once a major battle broke out, most of them would probably die here. After all, although I allowed them to leave, the mont they turned their blades on us, they beca our deadly enemies, and I would no longer show them rcy."
Soone used the Earth Tunneling Technique to flee from the other side and reported to , saying that he had used divine power to explore the true reason why they were staying."
Lin Chen had already felt that ngxi and his group were behaving abnormally. Now hearing this, he couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, "What is the truth?"
The Palace lord snorted coldly, "They were indeed waiting for soone, for the people from the Soul Split Sect to be precise, or more accurately, they were waiting for the Soul Nourishing Vessel, the sacred artifact of the Soul Split Sect, which has miraculous effects on healing divine soul injuries."
"They didn’t say what they wanted the Soul Nourishing Vessel for, but considering their identity and the elite troops of the Demon God Temple stationed here, they are prepared to wait at all costs for the people from the Soul Split Sect, the purpose is roughly guessable."
Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, "Demon Emperor?"
The Palace lord nodded, "That’s what I’m guessing too. The Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor were both said to have been seriously injured in their battle, but no one knows the extent of their injuries. Now deploying such heavy forces, guarding this Domain Gate, it must be to bring back the Soul Nourishing Vessel to heal the Demon Emperor’s injuries, otherwise, why make such a big fuss?"
Lin Chen asked in astonishnt, "The Demon Emperor is injured, if he needs the Soul Nourishing Vessel, why not just co and take it?"
The Palace lord sneered, "This is the Black Sky Demon Domain. If the Demon Emperor ca, it would surely not escape my master’s notice. I guess he’s severely injured, and he doesn’t want to appear before my master in such a state, to avoid causing other incidents."
"Although the Soul Split Sect is loyal to the Demon God Temple, the Soul Nourishing Vessel is their sect’s treasured holy artifact. They definitely wouldn’t want to give it up. Just as my Great Wilderness Palace is pushing forward, the Soul Split Sect chose to withdraw and negotiated with the Demon God Temple using this as a bargaining chip, finally reaching an agreent."
"The Soul Split Sect has a large number of people, and it’s impossible for everyone to cross space, so they let the people from the Demon God Temple wait for them, to guarantee their safety. If their safety beca compromised, then naturally, the Soul Nourishing Vessel would also be jeopardized."
"ngxi and the others are here waiting for the people from the Soul Split Sect. Once they arrive with the Soul Nourishing Vessel, then ngxi and his group will withdraw entirely and as agreed, hand over the Domain Gate and Gold-plated City to us."
Having heard this, Lin Chen now understood the cause and effect, and asked, "This Soul Nourishing Vessel sounds powerful and it can even help the Demon Emperor. Should we make a move?"
The Palace lord answered, "I’ve already reported this matter to my master and am waiting for his reply. After all, this involves the Demon Emperor’s injuries. If we forcibly intervene, that would an making a death feud with the Demon Emperor, so this matter still needs to be decided by my master!"
After pausing for a mont, the Palace lord looked at Lin Chen, "Regardless of whether we fight or not, you don’t need to get involved. What I want you to do is take advantage of the chaos, go through the Domain Gate, enter the Blood Wind Demon Domain, and search for the Ghost Face Flower..."
