Chapter 337 the Nether Flower

Big Slave and the old Taoist Priest were left on the slope . There was no threat to worry about anymore . The smell left after the two zombies were killed was enough to make the poisonous insects not approach either .

When he was close to the battlefield, Mu Yi used a technique . He had been studying the invisible charm and the soul travel three worlds charm he had gotten from King Xian’s grave . He could only understand half of them . If he wanted to master them fully, he could only wait until he reached the third or even the fourth difficulty .

Mu Yi was still able to learn something from them . It was said that as long as a person used the invisible charm, they couldn’t be found at all . He couldn’t hide his aura completely and truly be invisible but he could control his aura and make it seem like he didn’t exist . His vitality was the same as rotten wood .

Li the Cripple looked at Mu Yi but he didn’t say anything . He used the thick dead air to hide the vitality of his body . It was harmful to the body, but it worked . In front of them was a desolate place . It was shocking that such a place existed on this mountain . There should have been trees but there was nothing .

Mu Yi noticed a shadow floating in the distance aimlessly . There were bones scattered across the area that had been weathered away by the last hundred years . It was the reason why the Yin Qi was so strong here .

A gray cloud passed by them . They waited until the gray cloud was far away before moving . The gray cloud itself contained many shadows . It was like a troop of soldiers passing by . Mu Yi also saw some shadows without heads and some shadows without shapes .

“Master, the Nether flower is in front . ” Li the Cripple said, looking at Mu Yi .

The two men’s journey was extremely smooth without any accidents . The strongest spectre Mu Yi had encountered was just reaching the second difficult . The two men arrived at a small valley soon . The place Li the Cripple pointed to was in the middle of the valley .

After entering the valley, Mu Yi noticed something strange . These people had died hundreds of years ago yet the bones hadn’t decayed at all . It seemed like a lot of Yin Qi had accumulated in the bones and nourished them . The valley would have turned into a place that nurtured fierce ghosts if the souls of the army were still around .

This was the reason why there were always monks on the battlefield after every war in the past . They made sure that no soul stayed in the world but no one had cleaned the battlefield in front of Mu Yi . No one had buried them . There were no ghosts, but there were many spectres .

Under the guidance of Li the Cripple, Mu Yi found the Nether flower . It was surrounded by endless Yin Qi . The Yin Qi was strong and there were three powerful spectres wandering around . The three spectres were all looking at him . Mu Yi didn’t know how strong they were but they wouldn’t be easy to deal with .

“Master, there seems to be another spectre . According to the records, there were only two powerful spectres here . ” Li the Cripple told Mu Yi .

“It doesn’t matter . When the Nether flower opens, I will attract these three spectres and then you can seize the Nether flower and leave . ” Mu Yi said .

He would not be able to hide his vitality at that time and would be attacked . There would be more than the three resentful spectres to face . There were thousands of spectres in the battlefield . The three spectres were guarding the Nether flower because they knew that the Nether flower was good for them .

The Nether flower was just a bud . It was black with a bit of purple . It was absorbing the infinite Yin Qi and turning it into nutrients . For the Nether flower to open, it needed a little Yang Qi . Therefore, it was not accurate for Li the Cripple to say that the Nether flower would open on the fifth day of May .

The opening time of the Nether flower should be during the time period from 11 p . m . to 1 a . m . The Yin Qi would be extremely prosperous then . A trace of Yang Qi could be found at that time which was the intersection of Yin and Yang .

“Master, can I absorb the Nether flower here?” Li the Cripple asked .

“Here? Are you not afraid of death? “Mu Yi said .

“Master, this Nether flower was planted by my zombies’ ancestors . Since we know that the Nether flower attracts spectres, we have already made preparations . There is an array below us that can hold one person . As long as someone hides there, they can absorb the Nether flower safely . ” Li the Cripple said quietly .

“Okay . ”

Mu Yi agreed, which surprised Li the Cripple . He could still absorb the flower if they left but it was better to stay here and do it . Zombies cultivated with the help of Yin Qi . According to his original plan, the zombies he brought would resist the spectres . He would hide in the array and absorb the Nether flower while strengthening the body of the zombies with the help of the Yin Qi .

Li the Cripple could only absorb the Nether flower himself and strengthen his body as much as possible . Although he had been enslaved by Mu Yi, Li the Cripple’s ambition had not been reduced at all . He desired to become stronger . Mu Yi could not suppress this desire .

“Thank you very much . ” Li the Cripple said happily .
