Chapter 137.2
“Young master, what is that?” Cheng Qi was a little surprised when he realized that his Yin fire could not burn through it.
“Thousand-faced man-eating flower demon,” Li Tianyan frowned and spoke. “Judging from the tree roots that the flower demon poked out, I’m afraid it has already cultivated to the Core Formation level.”
Cheng Qi quickly put away the spiritual grass in his hand upon hearing about the Core Formation flower demon. “Young master, do you have any way to deal with this flower demon?”
“Yes, but you have to find its true form first.” The true form of the flower demon was its weakness and the only way to kill it. On the contrary, it had thousands of roots, and the endless regrow was the most difficult thing to deal with.
The true form of the flower demon was good at camouflage, and the pollen it sprayed could also cause hallucinations, making it difficult to distinguish even when it appeared in front of the cultivators. Its root system had spread all over the valley. If they accidentally got dragged into the ground while walking here, it would be dangerous.
“Young master, use the spiritual eyes.” After hearing what Li Tianyan said, Cheng Qi’s eyes suddenly lit up and reminded him.
“I forgot,” Li Tianyan couldn’t help laughing, he could use the spiritual eye magic weapon to fly deep into the valley to find the true form of the flower demon.
Then Li Tianyan lowered his upper body with his back to Cheng Qi and signaled to him, “Come up.”
Cheng Qi blinked and climbed onto his back with hands and feet. It had been a long time since Li Tianyan last carried him. After several years, Li Tianyan’s shoulders had become much broader.
Li Tianyan weighed the person on his back but felt that it was not safe enough, so he grew several vines from his body with wood spiritual energy, binding the two of them tightly together, and then continued to move forward in the valley.
The true spiritual energy in Li Tianyan’s body was so rich that it seemed inexhaustible. He continued to use the thunder and lightning to chop, and the thunder and lightning on the sword gradually gave birth to a trace of true thunder. The roots of the trees he cut were all poisoned with the breath of thunder, and they were actually unable to regenerate and restore themselves.
The flower demon, unable to attack for a long time and suffering huge losses, suddenly stopped and retracted countless stumps back into the ground. No new roots emerged to attack the two of them.
.
When he regained his composure, Li Tianyan discovered that Cheng Qi had reached the peak of the ninth level after battling with the flower demon, and his body was filled with spiritual power, showing signs of foundation building.
“Young master, where are you going?” Cheng Qi noticed that Li Tianyan suddenly turned around and walked back, put his arms around his shoulders, and asked.
“Leave the valley first and find a safe place for you to retreat,” Li Tianyan said without hesitation.
“But you haven’t got what you want yet.” Cheng Qi looked back reluctantly. They hadn’t found the spiritual object yet.
“We’ll come back after you build the foundation.” Li Tianyan quickly fled through the valley and went straight to the entrance.
Building a foundation was a very important matter for cultivator. Now that the opportunity had arrived, Cheng Qi could not delay it. Furthermore, they were only on the periphery now. The territory that truly belonged to the flower demon would not be reached until they entered the depths of the valley. With Cheng Qi still in the Qi Condensation stage, it would be extremely difficult to proceed.
Cheng Qi’s eyes became determined after hearing this, and his arms around Li Tianyan tightened. “I will definitely build the foundation as soon as possible.”
“You just need to calm down and do it carefully, don’t be impatient.” After Li Tianyan finished speaking, he opened the gap and led Cheng Qi out of the valley. He found a mountain with abundant spiritual energy near the valley, carved out a cave, and set up a spiritual gathering formation for Cheng Qi to retreat into.
