Chapter 620: Flower Fairy Cannon~

It truly was a black silhouette.

It was a black humanoid skeleton formed from Black Mist.

Ghost fire burned in its eye sockets, and below the skull, the lower half, originally the shape of a humanoid skeleton, suddenly turned into a mass of Black Mist.

In short, it has no solid form, can shift into any shape at will, and looks eerily terrifying.

When it appeared, the Dead Qi in the entire space became noticeably denser, making everyone feel extremely uncomfortable.

Those with higher cultivation fared better; lower‑level Academy disciples struggled to breathe, each showing a look of pain.

"Keh keh keh~" a hoarse laugh, sharp and raspy, as if sand filled the throat, making listeners extremely uneasy.

At this moment it again took the form of a humanoid skeleton; its black leg bones, shrouded in Black Mist, stomped on the ground, and the Black Mist instantly rippled outward like water patterns, fierce as a towering wave.

If such Dead Qi reaches them, many would be buried here outright.

In the blink of an eye, Fu Hanxiu made a move.

Fu Hanxiu lifted Ye Qingran into the void, one hand supporting her waist, the other gently sweeping, and a massive barrier formed around them, blocking the spread of Dead Qi!

With a raised hand, casually, yet possessing the power to shape mountains and rivers!

The Academy members lifted their gazes and stared at that silhouette.

A celestial bearing, a peerless visage.

Sun and moon, mountains and rivers, the world cannot strip away even a single strand of elegance!

"So strong!"

That was everyone's thought at that moment.

This Academy's Guest Minister Elder was truly too powerful; just by moving a hand, he wielded such terrifying strength.

"Instructor Ye and Elder Ye are just perfect together!"

Some even made light of it, pairing them as a couple.

One is the Pill Emperor, the Beast Taming Grandmaster, a saint who can slay a saint with a single strike; the other is a naturally domineering peerless powerhouse, unmatched in handsomeness.

What kind of divine couple is this?

"Is this the dead spirit?"

Fu Hanxiu nodded, "Hmm."

This ancient battlefield ruin, dating back to the primordial era, has seen countless lives fall here; it is a land saturated with death and resentment.

The dead spirit is the condensation over tens of thousands of years of all the malice and Dead Qi in the battlefield ruins, having cultivated spiritual intelligence and possessing great power, making it very hard to deal with.

"How do you know about the Second Oasis?"

"I searched in the Black Mist for a while and found it quickly."

Ye Qingran's mouth twitched slightly.

The Academy had never uncovered the secret of the Second Oasis for years, yet Fu Hanxiu discovered it on his first entry. This man, indeed, possesses intelligence bordering on demonic.

And also...

"Can you walk freely within the Black Mist?"

"Is it difficult?"

Ye Qingran rolled her White Eye.

Whether it's hard she doesn't know, but she certainly can't do it!

"How did you find the Chaos Qing Lian Seed?"

"Finding it is enough."

Fu Hanxiu pointed at the dead spirit with his chin.

Ye Qingran thought it made sense.

In this world, perhaps nothing wants to destroy the Chaos Qing Lian Seed more than the dead spirit.

One represents death, the other life; the two extremes are destined to stand opposed, like destruction and creation.

The Chaos Qing Lian Seed must be what the dead spirit most wishes to destroy, yet such a divine artifact cannot be ruined by ordinary power.

Either it requires something like Vermilion Bird Holy Fire, a super divine fire born from primordial chaos, or it must possess the power of a transcendent divine artifact.

The latter is almost impossible.

The dead spirit naturally cannot possess a sacred flame like Vermilion Bird Holy Fire, nor does it have supreme divine power, so it cannot destroy the Chaos Qing Lian Seed.

But it has time.

It can use the power of death to neutralize the life force of the Chaos Qing Lian Seed.

Before the Chaos Qing Lian Seed sprouts, its life force is limited; as long as Death Qi flows continuously, its life force will eventually be exhausted.

A Chaos Qing Lian Seed that loses its life force may not be destroyed, but it becomes a dead seed, hardly different from being destroyed.

"Today, none of you will think of leaving this place!"

The dead spirit again took the shape of a wandering ghost, its two eyes filled with ghost fire, becoming even more terrifying.

"Just you, and you think you can block my path?" Fu Hanxiu sneered.

That absolute confidence born from within made him even more dazzling.

Ye Qingran lifted her chin and looked at him, the corner of her lips twitching.

Sometimes, she asks herself why she likes Fu Hanxiu.

Perhaps that is one reason.

Only those proud to the bone can truly appreciate each other, right?

"How strong is it?"

"It is not beneath me."

Ye Qingran instantly grew solemn.

"Kill them!" the death spirit ordered.

As the words fell, the Hua Xian Beast's eyes turned completely black, its whole body exuding a dense death aura. As for the Qian Teng Beast, once emerald vines, now appeared with a withered yellow hue, yet its momentum only grew stronger.

The Qian Teng Beast and the Hua Xian Beast lunged forward, their mighty aura terrifying, yet Fu Hanxiu didn't even blink an eye.

The Ye Qingran in his arms was not worried; no matter how powerful the Qian Teng Beast and the Hua Xian Beast were, they certainly weren't Fu Hanxiu's match, otherwise he could have yielded the Emperor Sovereign's position.

Endless vines, countless threads, entangled Fu Hanxiu, leaving no retreat, no escape, like a prison woven of vines that could trap a person to death.

Fu Hanxiu was trapped, unable to move, yet not a hint of panic could be seen on his face.

At this moment, a flower appeared in the Hua Xian Beast's hand. If you think it's an ordinary flower, you are gravely mistaken.

This is the Hua Xian Beast's signature divine weapon— the Flower Fairy Cannon!

"Flower Fairy Cannon!" a sharp, high shout rang from the Hua Xian Beast's mouth; it raised the Flower Fairy Cannon, and as the words fell, a beam of light shot from the cannon's floral core, like a Rainbow streaking out, swift and fierce!

The energy within the Flower Fairy Cannon was so powerful it could annihilate everything; even a saint would be shattered to pieces under this blast.

So strong!

Such energy is certainly not something a saint can possess. They have seen saints act, and it could never have such overwhelming power.

Then it can only indicate that the cultivation of these two Spirit Beasts has long surpassed that of saints!

Human Emperor!

An unattainable realm flashed in everyone's mind.

To know, the vast Beimingzhou has not a single Human Emperor!

Yet these two plant‑type Spirit Beasts are at the Human Emperor realm!

Then, what about Elder Ye Xiu? Can he withstand the attacks of the two Human Emperor Spirit Beasts?

Watching the Flower Fairy Cannon about to strike Fu Hanxiu, everyone held their breath, dared not inhale, eyes unblinking fixed on him, their hearts extremely tense.

Just the instant before the Flower Fairy Cannon would hit Fu Hanxiu, Fu Hanxiu acted!

The endless vines entangling him all snapped, he formed a palm with one hand, gently pushed forward, and the Flower Fairy Cannon exploded a few centimeters before his palm; an invisible Barrier appeared before him, and the blast's energy did not affect him at all!

Astonishing!
