Chapter 947: Seeking Dao Flower, Causes of the Forbidden Land
Fang Xiao took the jade box but said nothing.
The idea of a Taoist oath has long been made clear; it will not work here at all.
Even if you swear an oath to the 'Lord of Heart' and pray, he probably won't pay any attention to you.
He didn't understand why he was doing this useless thing.
This person seemed to see Fang Xiao's doubts, but he didn't intend to hide it and started to explain directly.
"I will pray to the Lord of Heart later to make the oath you take next effective."
"You can actually pray like this. Aren't you afraid that after I leave, the Dao oath and everything here will be gone forever?"
Fang Xiao was indeed a little surprised that this person chose to pray to make the oath effective.
This way of praying also gave him some new ideas.
If this person can succeed, then he can also try to imitate him.
By then, taking Qi Yunsheng away may not be a luxury.
“This is really difficult for me.
To be honest, I am not sure about this myself.
But I am sure that you dare not break your oath.
After all, whether it's Heaven's punishment or the Lord of Heart's personal decision, the consequences are something you can't afford."
After hearing this, Fang Xiao suddenly realized that this person was actually gambling.
He was betting that Fang Xiao would not dare to break his oath.
This is true.
No matter how good the things in this jade box are, Fang Xiao would never break his oath just to take them for himself.
How is that different from committing suicide?
However, this person was clearly very resistant to praying to the 'Lord of Heart', but now he was able to accept it. Isn't he afraid of being completely eroded by the 'Lord of Heart'?
Of course, Fang Xiao was just thinking about it and didn't really care.
After all, everyone is responsible for their own choices.
However, Fang Xiao did not know that this person was just a small part of the consciousness of a Mahayana being.
If you are not able to give away what you have obtained, then it is just a piece of consciousness. It is no big deal to give it up.
After all, once it falls into the hands of the 'Lord of the Heart', who can take it away? There is no need for others to use it to scheme against it.
Fang Xiao didn't say much, but just opened the lid of the jade box with one hand.
This can be regarded as indirectly agreeing to this person's request.
Fang Xiao can help take the things out.
The jade box is unremarkable; the key lies in what is inside the box.
Fang Xiao lowered his eyes and saw that there was only a petal lying in the jade box.
Its color is slightly red, and the edges are dry. It can be sensed that there is no spiritual energy inside.
It looks like just an ordinary petal, nothing special about it.
But the more this happened, the more Fang Xiao felt that it was not simple.
Even if this person couldn't leave, he had to find a way to send it out. How could it be just an ordinary petal?
However, Fang Xiao did not ask for the information.
"In that case, let's start swearing an oath."
Just make a vow and this person will tell you everything about this petal.
All he had to think about was what benefits he should ask for from this person.
After getting Fang Xiao's approval, this person finally relaxed.
Then the two of them didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.
This person made a prayer first. The whole process was very short. Fang Xiao didn't even see what tribute he was offering to the 'Lord of the Heart'.
But he didn't ask any more questions.
Then, at the man's signal, he began to recite the oath.
Of course, Fang Xiao had already thought about the content of the Taoist oath in advance, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had carefully considered every word.
There is no need to worry about any traps or loopholes.
Just as he finished reciting the oath, an inexplicable feeling suddenly came over him.
Fang Xiao naturally understood that this was the symbol of the Dao oath.
He didn't expect that this method would actually work.
The man was also quite experienced and seemed to see that Fang Xiao had successfully made the oath.
At this moment, he seemed to be completely relaxed, as if the stone pressing on his heart had finally been removed.
Of course, he did not forget the agreement in the oath.
If the situation of the 'petals' is not explained clearly, many of the benefits will not satisfy Fang Xiao.
So even if the Dao oath is formed, if the conditions are not met, it will not be able to restrain Fang Xiao in the end.
Without Fang Xiao's urging, the man thought for a moment and began to explain.
"My friend, have you ever heard of something like the 'Seeking Dao Flower' during your cultivation?"
After hearing this, Fang Xiao pondered for a long time and finally shook his head.
"I've never heard of it before. Could it be that this petal comes from this 'Seeking Dao Flower'?
I would also like to ask you to explain what this 'Seeking Dao Flower' is."
Although he didn't know what was so special about this flower, but since it was named "Seeking the Way", it must be something extraordinary.
"Don't worry, my friend. Even if you don't ask, I will explain.
This 'Seeking Dao Flower' is a rare treasure that countless people desire but cannot obtain.
Since you have reached the peak of the God-Seeing Realm, I think you should know about the existence of the True Immortal's Mansion.
And this flower is something that flows out from this immortal abode."
As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Xiao was shocked and speechless.
It turned out to be another immortal's residence.
Originally, he thought that the existence of the True Immortal's Mansion should only be circulated among a certain group of people.
But now it is not difficult to judge from this person's words that the True Immortal's Mansion is not a secret among high-level beings.
Of course, even if everyone knows about it, not everyone can get in.
After all, there are only so many jade talismans scattered in the fairy palace, and more than half of them have never been found by anyone.
Therefore, there are very few people who are truly qualified to enter the True Immortal's Mansion.
The change in Fang Xiao's expression did not attract the middle-aged man's attention. He was still telling the story of the "Seeking Dao Flower".
“The so-called Tao-seeking flower only blooms but does not bear fruit.
One branch, three buds, three flowers in bloom.
One flower has three petals, each one is different.
In short, when this spiritual plant matures, three spiritual flowers will bloom at the same time.
Each flower has only three petals, corresponding to the three paths of essence, energy and spirit.
As for its function, it is actually very simple. It helps those at the peak of the Fusion Stage cultivate the Dao Seed and then break through to the Mahayana Stage."
This person explained the function of the Tao-seeking flower.
At this point, Fang Xiao was shocked, and gradually understood why this person was worried that he would take it for himself.
It turns out that this Dao-seeking Flower can actually help those in the fusion stage advance to the Mahayana stage.
It would be a lie to say that he didn't want it. Even with the oath before him, Fang Xiao couldn't help but have the intention of monopolizing this flower.
However, he was not very clear about the term "Dao seed", which seemed to be related to the Mahayana period.
However, he did not rush to ask, but secretly remembered it in his heart and listened to the man finish speaking first.
It turns out that before the appearance of the True Immortal's Mansion, this flower had never appeared in the lower world.
Its function is also unknown.
However, if it can appear in the remains of a True Immortal, it must not be an ordinary thing, and there will inevitably be competition for it.
Coincidentally, the time when the Tao-seeking flowers mature is very regular, and they are all when the True Immortal's Mansion is about to close.
Therefore, the competition is quite intense.
The last time the Immortal Palace was opened, the person who won one of the Tao-Seeking Flowers was a person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
Although he was able to break out of the encirclement by relying on his powerful strength.
But he was brutally besieged during the whole process, and his injuries were so serious that they were beyond recovery.
Even if it successfully shook off everyone and escaped into the void.
But in the end he was seriously injured and died on the way to escape.
And the existence of the Tribulation Period means that one is only one step away from ascension.
Even if he died, he would not turn into ashes like ordinary cultivators.
After all, since the achievement of the Dao body in the late stage of the fusion period, the power of the Dao has been refined into private property, and the Heavenly Dao will not take it back in a short period of time.
Therefore, after the death of a strong person in the late stage of fusion or even above, in addition to slowly dissipating in the world, there is also the possibility that he will condense into some special thing, or form some special environment or special existence.
“I happened to be involved in the exploration of the True Immortal’s Mansion.
Although his strength was limited and he did not dare to join the battle, he had seen that person from afar.
But I never thought it would be such a coincidence that after its fall, it would actually fall into the Tianhuang Realm and happen to land in the Qingping Domain.
This is where the life forbidden zone comes from.
Then I guessed that the Tao-seeking flower must be among them."
There is no need to say what happened next.
In order to obtain the Tao Flower, this person also separated a part of his mind and consciousness and ventured deep into the forbidden area of life.
Although he finally found it and got it, when he wanted to leave, he found that he had been locked in the virtual world.
What followed was countless deep sleep and brief awakenings.
Until I met Fang Xiao.
