Chapter 569 - 440: Dreaming of Sea of Flowers, Frightful Enchanting Girl
Chapter 569: Chapter 440: Dreaming of Sea of Flowers, Frightful Enchanting Girl
Chu Mu had already entered the sea of flowers in the dreamland for the second time; the first time was in the Forbidden Domain’s Demon Spirit House when he was trapped in the Earth Fiend Dream Demon’s dreamland, which evoked the deepest nightmares inside him.
This time, the Nightmare induced by the Night Thunder Dream Beast tried to keep some of Chu Mu’s consciousness so he wouldn’t get completely lost inside.
The vast sea of flowers, with colors of red, orange, yellow, and green meticulously adorned like countless colored stars, gradually let Chu Mu become completely immersed in the dream dance, losing himself unconsciously.
Chu Mu walked towards this world of flowers; he could see nameless stamens swaying in the wind, peculiar stems and leaves growing along a beautiful trajectory, petals falling and causing ripples in the sea of flowers…
As Chu Mu continued to stride forward, the enchanting atmosphere made him relax his guard completely. As he looked around, he suddenly noticed a cluster of noble blues that captured his gaze, which couldn’t be shifted away.
When he stared intently, it felt as if even his heart was captured, with the door of his heart involuntarily opening along with the beautiful and holy blue flower bud.
This feeling was as if he were surrounded by countless beautiful women singing and dancing, their eyes filled with charm and their clothes and hair floating gracefully; all of which could make one intoxicated. Yet only that one touch of holy and gorgeous beauty could truly capture a person’s heart, while the surrounding beauty and temptation became like three thousand weak waters…
Chu Mu was completely attracted by this sacred blue flower, staring at her as she slowly bloomed amidst the dazzling light and shadows.
In fact, Chu Mu felt extremely conflicted at this moment. With the little consciousness he still retained, he knew this was a dream, that the temptation of his heart was from that defected girl, and that her stamens were actually covered in poison. However, at this moment, she looked so holy and pure, completely untouched by even a bit of dust—beautiful, spiritual, and born of life itself.
It was already an illusion, and Chu Mu was strongly resisting it. But his heart was still moved, and he found it hard to imagine how powerful this defecting girl’s charm was. Her charm could change Chu Mu’s completely mature mind and still make him feel this way after twelve years of accumulating resentment and anger.
Was it because his soul wasn’t strong enough to resist the enchantment, or was it because this being was truly untouched by the Mortal World…
“Please, help me…”
A pitiful voice came from inside his heart, along with a lament full of sorrow and pain.
How could a ten-year-old boy refuse such a request?!
Even Chu Mu, a mature twenty-two-year-old with the most unwavering conviction, almost wanted to believe that she was truly in great pain, hoping someone could help her out of this suffering. Her eyes were so pure that they couldn’t contain even a bit of deception.
Previously, the dream trap set by the Earth Fiend Dream Demon amplified Chu Mu’s resentment. Thus, when he saw the defected girl, his heart was filled with the deepest hatred and rage.
However, the dreamland that the Night Thunder Dream Beast led Chu Mu into was the most realistic scenario in his memory—even the feelings were most authentic with no exaggeration or reduction. What Chu Mu never expected was that this nightmare contained a scene so genuine and sacred. At least those pure and spirited eyes Chu Mu had never seen before.
…
This was a spiritual struggle, knowing the outcome would be cruel but the process was still soul-stirring.
It was like a doomed love affair; willing to dive into the fire like a moth, completely unable to stop.
“Ye, stop the dreamland!”
Finally, Chu Mu yelled!
The Dream Pupil of the Night Thunder Dream Beast immediately dimmed!
At once, all the dreamland fragments slowly slipped away from Chu Mu’s memory and vision…
“Chirp,” the Night Thunder Dream Beast let out a gentle cry as if it sensed Chu Mu’s intense emotional fluctuation. It moved closer, rubbing Chu Mu’s hand softly with the corner of its mouth.
Cold sweat slid down Chu Mu’s back as his eyes were absent-minded for a while. It was not until the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s moist touch did he gradually recover.
As the inner turmoil subsided, Chu Mu sensed the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s action. A wry smile surfaced on his face as he patted the beast’s muzzle, signaling to it that he had already adjusted himself.
“Young Master, are you okay?” Fox Elder stood on the back of the Night Thunder Dream Beast, looking worriedly at Chu Mu.
Chu Mu took a deep breath, the scenes from the dreamland still vivid in his mind.
That feeling was truly terrifying. Chu Mu had always believed that his resentment for the defecting girl had reached its deepest point, and the next time he saw her, he would easily erase her.
But Chu Mu was wrong; the defecting girl’s deceiving charm, which was strong enough to delve deep into a person’s soul, was far more potent than his own soul sense!
“She is genuinely terrifying,” Chu Mu shuddered in his soul.
It wasn’t the defecting girl’s charisma and beauty that reached deep into people’s hearts that scared Chu Mu. What frightened him was that, after twelve years, he involuntarily began to believe her again.
“Young Master, this betraying girl must have a high level of intelligence. At least your current soul sense level can’t resist her flower charm technique. It seems that even if you find her now, you won’t be her opponent,” Fox Elder sighed.
Fox Elder never expected Chu Mu to provoke such a bone-chilling humanoid soul pet. Thinking about it now still left him with lingering fear.
Chu Mu had finally found the Sea of Flowers, and through the same environment, he successfully recalled a memory, only to realize that the defecting girl’s strength was still above his at the time. Although he didn’t hold any hope of finding her, the thought of being weaker than her and almost being bewitched again made Chu Mu want to curse.
“Young Master, there’s no need to be angry. The flower charm technique is no worse than a demon spirit’s mental skill. Besides, her level is so high, perhaps it’s not that your strength isn’t as good as hers, but that her technique is too dominant. Young Master, don’t be impatient. Since you’ve found the source, I’m sure she won’t escape with the rate your strength is increasing!” Fox Elder said.
“If her intelligence is higher than mine, does that mean I wouldn’t be able to detect her soul contract with me even if she were right in front of me?” Chu Mu asked.
“Well… if she’s much higher than you, then maybe you won’t be able to detect it. But even if her strength is similar to yours, I think she will use various methods to hinder the soul connection between you two. By the way, have you found any clues from your memories?” Fox Elder asked.
“Yes, it’s in this Rain Flower Sea, in the central position,” Chu Mu nodded, and after saying that, another small detail flashed in his mind.
Chu Mu remembered seeing a spiritual object growing in a peculiar trajectory at the time, which was located ten meters away from the holy blue flower bud.
Chu Mu didn’t know what it was before, but thinking about it now…
It was clearly a precious spiritual object, a treasure that could be used to enhance the level of the Demon Tree Warrior!
If that spiritual object still existed there twelve years ago, Chu Mu could count it as an additional reward!
At that moment, Chu Mu also told Fox Elder about the spiritual object he recalled.
“The Di Sheng Domain is not a Mysterious Realm, and just about anyone can enter it freely. Besides, the entire Di Sheng Domain is vast and boundless, so the number of people coming to the Rain Flower Sea should be small. Furthermore, the Twisted Spirit Root is an inconspicuous spiritual object, and the chances of it being taken away by someone are very low. Moreover, after twelve years, it may have grown to a higher form. Young Master, this is a great opportunity to enhance the Demon Tree Warrior,” Fox Elder said excitedly.
The shadow the defecting girl left behind was quickly swept away as Chu Mu’s memories of the dream world faded, replaced by the joy brought about by the appearance of an item that could directly increase the strength of the Demon Tree Warrior.
Indeed, treasures come with great danger; Chu Mu felt that his trip to the Di Sheng Domain was well worth it!
Perhaps after leaving this place, his strength would have another significant increase. After all, the value of the Twisted Spirit Root was extremely high, and it might not always be available for purchase at the trading place.
Chu Mu’s fighting spirit ignited once more as he rode the Night Thunder Dream Beast, leading the Demon Tree Warrior step by step towards the center of the flower sea where he had encountered the defecting girl.
The Rain Flower Sea wasn’t very big, and as Chu Mu slowly approached the center, he could already feel some unusual movement under his feet and a faint scent in the air that was easy to ignore.
Chu Mu wasn’t dealing with plant spirit beasts for the first time, and he knew that the faint scent was not an illusion but a technique commonly used by flower-type soul pets: hypnotic, bewildering, slow-acting poison…
Chu Mu used his soul sense to protect himself while directing the Night Thunder Dream Beast to release its dark aura, preventing the pollen from entering his nostrils.
“Young Master, this pollen smell should be from Xuying, a commander-level flower-type soul pet. In this environment, its growth would have definitely reached the tenth rank. But we should pay attention to its binding and dividing abilities, which are incredibly powerful, and to a certain extent, can disregard even the hardest defenses. It’s better to let the Demon Tree Warrior deal with it,” Fox Elder reminded Chu Mu.
Chu Mu naturally knew this, but the problem wasn’t whether he could handle this commander-level Xuying; instead, he sensed that many flower-type soul pets inhabited that area, forming a small tribe!
Valuable spiritual objects always come with great danger. This was yet another challenge for Chu Mu, and he would do everything possible to obtain it to rapidly increase his strength, and then dominate The World Decree!
