Chapter 1303: Flower Lust Formation

Over a hundred cherry blossom paths with no end in sight appeared before them. It was like a complex maze, with no sense of direction, nor any beginning or end.

Flower petals danced in the sky, giving onlookers a sense of entrancement.

Little Xie’s expression shifted slightly upon seeing this. “Be careful! The scent of the cherry blossoms is poisonous!”

An Lin immediately held his breath upon hearing this. “What type of poison? Is it lethal?”

A peculiar expression appeared on Little Xie’s face. “Well, it’s not lethal… but it does have powerful aphrodisiac properties…”

An Lin: “…”

Why would this type of poison be present in the formation?

In the Heavenly Palace.

All of the powerful beings and mighty figures gathered dined on fruits as they spectated the battle for the heavenly peaches.

“At the moment, the Four Nine Immortal Sect has secured two heavenly peach trees, the Hall of Creation has secured one, the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect has secured one, the Spring Divine Tree Realm has secured one, and the Wild Illusionary Shadow Tribe has secured one. There are still three unclaimed heavenly peach trees left…

“Those three heavenly peach trees are all located in the deepest part of the cherry blossom forest. There are now only just over a hundred contestants left among the original eight hundred, and most of them have entered the cherry blossom forest in pursuit of those final three heavenly peach trees.

“The climax is coming!”

All of the spectators were getting a little excited.

However, someone soon exclaimed in shock and horror, “Holy f*ck, what did I just see?!”

“My God… This…”

On one of the screens, a man encountered a female Stone Tribe cultivator and immediately stripped off his clothes. The female Stone Tribe cultivator also shed all of the moss on her body as they came together in a passionate, nude embrace!

Everyone was astonished. What the hell were they doing?

Those two living beings were instantly teleported back after golden lights enshrouded their bodies.

The Dao Observation Space had even gifted each of them a set of clothes upon their return.

“Detected that two living beings have already lost control over their hearts. They are no longer fit to continue and have been eliminated.” The Dao Observation Space’s robotic voice sounded.

The man who had stripped off all of his clothes only came to his senses then, and he stared at the female Stone Tribe cultivator with an appalled expression.

Holy sh*t! He had almost f*cked a rock!

They were not the only ones who were stripping in the cherry blossom forest. Some had even taken off their clothes even though there was no one around.

A male disciple from the Heavenly Artifact Immortal Sect of the Kingdom of the Nine States tore away his clothing before pouncing toward a ball monster of the Hall of Creation…

One contestant after another was eliminated from the cherry blossom forest.

Many of the spectating mighty figures were beginning to figure out what was going one.

They had all been struck by the extremely powerful aphrodisiac properties of the Flower Lust Formation, making them lust for any living beings regardless of their species and genders!

There were over fifty contestants that had entered this formation, over half of which had been eliminated due to loss of control. Amid all of this farcical turmoil, there was an excited white dog chasing after butterflies.

That’s right, he was Da Bai!

“To think that the emperors of the Heavenly Court would set up a trial like this.”

“If it weren’t for the fact that all of the sensitive bits have been blurred and everyone is eliminated before they have a chance to do anything, I would have gone to the police!”

“Tsk tsk tsk, what a strange fetish…”

All of the mighty figures discussed spiritedly among themselves. None of them were all that averse to what they were seeing. Instead, they were looking on with relish.

Lust was a major obstacle on the path to pursuing dao.

Whether one could retain control over themselves and ensure their dao hearts remained resolute was an important trait in cultivators.

As such, this formation was a good trial for them in a way.

…

Within the Dao Observation Space.

A little girl continued onward while holding a man’s hand. Any obstacles or impediments they encountered were kept at bay by her powerful vital energy, including the aphrodisiac floral scent and the lethal flower petals.

“Little Xie, you really are a little girl that gives one a sense of security,” An Lin couldn’t help but offer words of praise.

“Shut up,” Little Xie spoke in a cold voice.

This was the hundredth compliment An Lin had given her.

It felt pretty good at the start, but listening to so many compliments was simply annoying now.

An Lin immediately fell silent.

He had been reduced to a feeble mortal, so he would have no sense of existence if he didn’t say anything.

He went wherever Little Xie went, and when they encountered any danger, he would stand on the sidelines while Little Xie fought in his stead.

How was he supposed to live if he wasn’t even allowed to cheer her on anymore?

At this moment, Little Xie’s footsteps suddenly faltered.

“What is it, Little Xie?” An Lin asked.

Little Xie’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as she pointed at a mark in the ground, which she had made with her sword intent. “I’ve been here before.”

An Lin’s heart jolted with shock. “We’ve come back to where we once were? Have we been walking in circles?”

He had heard of this type of scenario many times before, but he still found it to be quite unbelievable when experiencing it first hand.

After all, even though they were walking along a winding path, he was sure that they were traveling deeper into the forest the entire time. So how had they ended up where they started?

“What do we do now?” An Lin was at a loss for what to do.

Little Xie looked behind her to discover that the path had become straight somehow without them even noticing. Looking around them, this looked like the exact same place that they had entered the formation from.

An Lin had also observed this, and he immediately became excited. “I get it now! Could it be that the entrance and exit to this formation are one and the same?!”

Little Xie rolled her eyes. “Master, has your IQ also dropped along with your combat prowess?”

An Lin: “…”

Little Xie gripped her Evil-Slaying Sword. “The end of the path is where the exit lies. I’m going to carve out a real path with my sword!”

“You’re going to slice through this spell formation?” An Lin was excited again. “As expected, no spell formation can stand against my Little Xie!”

“…” Little Xie was a little speechless. “What makes you think that I can slice through a Dao Integration Stage formation at my Spirit Nurturing Stage power level?”

An Lin had no response to this.

At this moment, Little Xie suddenly grabbed onto An Lin’s hand of her own volition.

An Lin was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

Was Little Xie finally going to change her personality and become a warm, loving little girl?

“Hold on tight. Don’t blame me if you get lost,” Little Xie suddenly cautioned.

“Huh…?” An Lin faltered momentarily.

Only now did he figure out that Little Xie was voluntarily holding his hand to prevent him from getting lost…

Little Xie closed her eyes and pointed her Evil-Slaying Sword straight forward. “The Flower Lust Formation can cloud my eyes, so I won’t use my eyes.”

No matter how straight the path is, is it as straight as my sword?

“I’m going to replicate the path in my heart with my sword!”

A powerful sword projection tore through the earth as she spoke, extending all the way forward.

An Lin’s eyes widened, and he instantly understood Little Xie’s thought process.

Even though she couldn’t slice open the spell formation with her sword, she could slice a straight path forward with her sword!

The path her sword opened up would remain straight and unaffected by all external factors!

Little Xie closed her eyes and walked along the fissure in the ground created by her sword strike, all the way until the conclusion of the fissure, upon which she unleashed another sword strike.

There was nothing that could distract her now. Even if there were countless cherry blossom trees in her way, she would slice through all of them and continue in an unyielding fashion along the path in her heart.

That’s right, this was an absolutely straight line without any chance of going off track.

All types of traps and cherry blossom monsters appeared in her way, but all of them were vanquished by her sword.

Thus, they forged ahead through the formation.

Before they knew it, they had come out of the cherry blossom forest.

The air around them suddenly became extremely pure and fresh. Rich vital energy could be detected here, giving both of them a sense of comfort and relaxation.

However, neither of them had time to bask in this new environment. Both of them were staring intently at the trees ahead of them.

There were three heavenly peach trees right before their eyes!
