~WARNING!~

~WARNING!~

~WARNING!~

After quite a long time, Lin Wu saw the system giving a warning like this. As soon as he heard it, his heart fell to the bottom of his stomach and he felt cold.

~DING~

——

WARNING!: Extremely dangerous creature approaching

——

"Fuck! If it's dangerous for me despite being in the Nascent Soul realm, it's bound to be higher than the Dao Shell realm. Even the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle did not cause the system to act like this." Lin Wu thought.

He realized that what his spirit sense had observed was nothing but this creature. The only problem was that he did not know what it was yet. But in the next moment, the system gave him another notification. It was for the 'tree' that the Copper Hide weasel had told him about.

~DING~

ANALYSIS: Completed

DATA EXTRAPOLATED: Target identified

TARGET: Aquadream Lotus

INFO: Aquadream Lotus is a special kind of a creature that can be classified as both a plant and beast. They live in different bodies of water and are of different classes. They eat the beasts that live around them, while letting other spirit herbs and plants grow around them.

Their presence is good for the other herbs as not only does it protect them, but also promotes their growth naturally. Some sects especially rear certain classes of this beast for their spirit herb gardens as they catalyze their growth.

The lowest class of Aquadream Lotus is called as Aquadream Pond Lotus and lives in ponds. They can reach up to the Nascent Soul realm at most and if they want to increase their cultivation base they need to move to a lake.

The second class of it is called as Aquadream Lake Lotus and lives in Lakes. They can reach up to the Dao Shell realm at most and need to move to a larger water body to further increase their cultivation base.

The next two classes of the Aquadream Lotus are the Aquadream Sea Lotus and the Aquadream Ocean Lotus. They can reach the Dao Treading Realm and Immortal Ascension realm, respectively.

After reading the large amount of information, Lin Wu also saw the appearance of the Aquadream Lotus in a different window. It looked similar to what the Copper Hide Beast had described as.

"Considering the size of the one that the Copper Hide Beast described, it must be an Aquadream Pond Lotus. That must be what it ate… but how the heck did he eat a beast that was at the Nascent Soul realm while being weaker than it?" Lin Wu questioned himself.

'No, wait! It only said the maximum it can reach is the Nascent Soul realm. What if it was weaker than that? But that would still not explain how it was able to reach the Nascent Soul realm so fast.

And neither would it explain how the heck did it get the stone feather from the thing. This all makes no sense.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

But in the next moment, the surface of the pond parted and a long greenish blue vine rose from it. Then more of the vines appeared from the water, before leaves started to appear. Each of these leaves measured over five meters in diameter and there were easily a hundred of them, covering the entire pond in just a few seconds.

Then from between the leaves, Lin Wu saw a large bud appearing. The bud was about two meters long and half a meter thick. The bud faced Lin Wu and the Copper Hide Weasel before blooming in front of them.

But what appeared in front of them was not a beautiful flower but rather a wide maw filled with sharp teeth.

"THAT'S ONE UGLY MOTHERFUCKER!" Lin Wu cursed, before flying back with a flip.

He used his tail like spring before launching himself back in the air at great speed.

~whoosh~

~SKREEE~

"Huh? You latched on too?" Lin Wu saw the Copper Hide Weasel stuck to his back.

It managed to hold onto one of his back spikes and was now flying with him.

"Seems like you can tell when it's dangerous as well… just that your standard is way too high." Lin Wu couldn't help but say.

Once Lin Wu was in the air, he flew back on his own and retreated for over a kilometer before stopping. He then gazed at the Aquadream Lotus in front of him in the pond.

"System, what kind of Aquadream Lotus is that?" Lin Wu questioned.

He wanted to sense the cultivation base of the creature, but when his spirit sense was nearing it, he felt it to be wavering. Lin Wu reckoned that the beast had more abilities than was shown by the system and perhaps they were in details.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The creature is an Aquadream Sea Lotus and has a cultivation base at the Dao Treading realm.

——

"GODDAMN! Is this distance even safe?" Lin Wu wondered and started to fly back just to be a bit more safe.

~BOOM~

"What the fuck!" Lin Wu cursed while dodging a jet of water that had been shot out by the Aquadream Sea lotus.

The water jet missed Lin Wu, but it hit the hill that was behind him, piercing through it and destroying the trees beyond it. The power of the attack could be felt from this and Lin Wu was sure that if it hit him, even he would get damaged.

"Yeah, this distance is definitely not enough." Lin Wu stated before flying back more.

But while he was doing this, he saw the Aquadream Sea Lotus acting strangely. The flower head that contained the many teeth started to spin as an enormous mouth opened up from it. The Aquadream Sea Lotus started to rise further up from the pond, like Godzilla from the sea.

"That's not even its full body…" Lin Wu muttered as he saw tens of vines appearing from the pond before the corners of it started to crack and split apart.
