Chapter 1981: That Goes Without Saying

"He wants to obtain the Five-Colored Jinlan, he wants to possess power like a god; it is trying to become a god."

And at the same time she called out, Shiyueke also discovered the Five-Colored Jinlan, and he roared: "Mine, these are mine, no one can snatch them, otherwise, I will tear you all into ten thousand pieces."

As he roared, several long tentacles had already shot out, reaching toward that divine flower; this fellow had guarded this place for a hundred years, just for today.

"Quick, stop him, this thing cannot fall into his hands," Xueli shouted.

"That goes without saying," Chen Yu smiled slightly, he leaped up, and at the same time, several streaks of Sword Qi whistled out from his body.

*Puff, puff, puff*, the several tentacles Shiyueke had extended were instantly severed by Chen Yu, and Chen Yu leaped up and snatched the flower into his hand.

A faint power radiated from this flower; Chen Yu felt the power within it, and he could not help but be somewhat surprised, as this power was indeed very strong, faintly carrying a trace of Divine Power.

It seems the rumors that one could obtain the power of gods by obtaining this flower were not just legends; they had some truth to them.

"No..." Shiyueke in the cave let out a hysterical roar, his massive head raised high, with a hint of a pleading tone: "I beg you, give it to me."

"I have guarded this place for a hundred years, I abandoned my home, I abandoned my family, just to possess it."

"Shiyueke, you were originally an ordinary person, and it is impossible for an ordinary person to control the power of this flower," Xueli said: "So it is now kept by the School of Religion."

"No, this is mine, this is not mine." Shiyueke's massive head was forcibly propped up, he was extremely agitated: "No one can take it from before my eyes, no one."

"Why are you so obsessed and unwilling to repent?" Chen Yu turned his head to look at Shiyueke: "If you have the ability, come and snatch it."

"You robbers, you snatched what originally belonged to me, I want to kill you." Shiyueke's expression was extremely furious.

He let out a roar, and then his massive body crawled out from the cave.

His body had long since become one with the Mountain, and he had long since lost a true body.

Now he was like a massive, incomparably large flesh-worm, wriggling about.

"This fellow, living in this world is actually a kind of suffering," Chen Yu shook his head and said: "How about we do a good deed and send him on his way?"

"He is already a monster himself, having lost his way as a human because of greed," Xueli sighed slightly: "How about we just send him on his way."

"Mm, you are right, it is better if we send him on his way," Chen Yu also nodded slightly.

He took out a Talisman, swirled it slightly in his hand, and then placed it on the ground.

Under the reinforcement of Mind Power, with a *boom*, this Talisman suddenly glowed with a faint light, then with a *boom* it ignited, and intense firelight instantly wrapped around his body.

"Ah..." Shiyueke let out a hysterical scream, the firelight forcing him to keep shrinking his body backward.

But no matter how hard he tried, he could not escape the restraint of the True Fire.

A raging fire suddenly ignited in the cave, and together with his body, it turned to ashes in the intense flames.

Shiyueke was completely gone; this fellow had guarded this place for over a hundred years, his greed had turned him completely into a monster, but even after becoming a monster, he still could not stop thinking about the Five-Colored Jinlan.

But it is a pity that until the very end, he did not obtain this treasure he was so obsessed with, and instead, Chen Yu and Xueli picked up a huge bargain.

"This Five-Colored Jinlan is the treasure to close the rift in the Black Wind Forest," Xueli looked at the small five-colored flower in her hand, and she murmured: "It seems that in the dark, everything has its own destiny."

"Yes, in the dark, everything has its own destiny," Chen Yu said: "This place has a rift leading to the Dark Abyss, and this Five-Colored Jinlan was born to meet this fate."

"What a pity, Shiyueke stayed here for so long, yet in the end, he fulfilled others and made wedding clothes for someone else," Xueli shook her head with some regret, then placed the small flower in her hand onto the ground.

Following that, her hands formed a strange gesture, and then she suddenly raised her head; at this instant, her delicate body trembled, as if it were made of steel.

As she chanted a long incantation, a stream of Holy Power was transmitted onto that Five-Colored Jinlan.

The small flower suddenly brightened, and then endless light suddenly emerged; those flames were covered by this light and slowly disappeared, and then the brilliance expanded infinitely, and finally, these rifts completely disappeared before their eyes.

The atmosphere of the Black Wind Forest had originally carried an endless aura of darkness, but as the rifts disappeared, the atmosphere inside the Black Wind Forest gradually became normal.

The sunlight from ahead shone in, and the Dark Creatures originally hidden in the forest had nowhere to hide.

Under the sunlight, they fled in panic, but the scorching sunlight was the supreme nemesis of these low-level Dark Creatures.

These Dark Creatures were all low-level Dark Creatures and had no ability to resist this kind of sunlight; they were soon illuminated by the sunlight until their bodies were emitting black smoke, and then they completely vanished into thin air.

"From today on, the Black Wind Forest will never exist again," Xueli smiled slightly, a look of relief appearing on her face.

The Black Wind Forest had always been a forbidden zone for humans; this place had a rift to the Dark Abyss, and sometimes some Dark Creatures would pass through the Dark Abyss and come over from the Dark World.

Although those Dark Creatures were relatively weak, they were a significant threat to humans.

Now the Dark Creatures in this place had been completely resolved, which was a good thing no matter how you looked at it.

Most importantly, the Space Rift had also been patched; it was a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

"Further ahead is the territory of the Endless Coast," Chen Yu said: "Don't be too happy too soon; we can only breathe a sigh of relief once we have resolved the matter of the Endless Coast."

Xueli nodded slightly: "Let's continue moving forward."

"Good, before dark, we must reach the Watchtower and rendezvous with the believers of your Pope who have been guarding there; if it is too late, this place will not be peaceful," Chen Yu said.

"Then let's hurry on our way," Xueli said: "There is not much time left."

The two moved forward, traveling west all the way, and when the sun set, they could finally see the coast from afar.

On a beach, Chen Yu clearly saw a huge tower, and this tower stood there like a lighthouse, unmoving.

"Look, the Watchtower; this tower has stood here for hundreds of years," Xueli looked at the tower, which was as high as a sharp sword piercing into the clouds, and could not help but sigh with emotion.
