*Hisss, hisss…* Suddenly, terrifying hisses echoed through the wetlands, and the ground started quaking.
The next moment, a colossal Black Python, reaching the sky, plowed through the mountains and forests, arriving at the center of the lake in an instant.
It was a Python that had surpassed human cognition–Titanoboa.
When it hissed, the intense nauseating smell of blood wafting from its mouth even overpowered the sweet fragrance lingering in the air.
And just at this moment…
*Screech…*
Diving from the sky, a colossal bird riddled with wounds spread its wings, stopping right above the lake. Its blood-red eyes, resembling red lanterns, were fixed on the Five-Color Spirit Flower blooming at the center of the lake.
And right behind it was a man dressed in white.
It was none other than the White Emperor–Wang Hao with his rusty longsword in his hand. At this moment, he was wearing a serious and solemn expression.
At the end of the day, being one of the ten monstrosities of the continent, the colossal bird’s level of terror was on a whole new level, beyond ordinary people’s imagination. Even when Wang Hao had unleashed his trump card, the White Emperor Sword’s Closing Scene, it only caused minor injuries to Northern Darkness.
And this kind of injury was nothing for Northern Darkness. Looking at its wiggling flesh around the wounds, Wang Hao’s eyes narrowed slightly.
In just a few breaths, more than half of its wounds had healed.
“This is troublesome.” Saying so, his gaze also fell on the Five-Color Spirit Flower at the center of the lake.
The next moment, his pupils suddenly constricted and he could not help but exclaim, as if he had discovered something, “A fleeting moment of blossom, the Fleeting Moment Flower…”
[It blossoms for a moment, only to wither in the next. This is undoubtedly the ancient and profoundly mysterious Spirit Treasure – the Fleeting Moment Flower. Even in the previous era, it held extraordinary status among Spirit Treasures, second only to other Marvelous Treasures of Heaven and Earth like the ancient legendary Bodhi Tree and the Flower of the Other Shore!]
[The legends speak of the Bodhi Tree as the tree of enlightenment, where great ascetics sat beneath it for a hundred years and attained enlightenment. The Flower of the Other Shore is no less formidable, blooming on the other shore and allowing communication with the life and death of the netherworld. Even if the deceased were to obtain it, it could grant them another lifetime. Now, a Spirit Flower, ranking only second to such mighty Heaven and Earth Treasures, has appeared. This is a momentous occurrence.]
However, the next moment, Wang Hao narrowed his eyes slightly and heaved a sigh, as if discovering something.
“The Fleeting Moment Flower described by Master seems to be slightly different. The true Fleeting Moment Flower has nine grades. When the nine colors bloom together, it’s able to contend with the brilliance of the sun and moon. This Spirit Flower only has five colors. It can only be considered a fifth-grade Fleeting Moment Flower. Although it’s not bad, it still falls short compared to the ninth-grade Fleeting Moment Flower from the previous era, which triggered a huge fight among countless races…”
At this point, the burning fervor in the depths of Wang Hao’s eyes almost materialized.
[Although it’s just a fifth-grade Fleeting Moment Flower, I’m only a Tier-2 Superhuman. If I could get my hands on this Marvelous Treasure of Heaven and Earth, my chances of reaching Tier-3, and even Tier-4 would be within reach. But, that’s not the most important thing. The most important point is that the Fleeting Moment Flower is the most mysterious among the Marvelous Treasures of Heaven and Earth, possessing incredible abilities. If I could attain this ability, not to mention Tier-3 or Tier-4, even attaining Dao is foreseeable.]
Think this, Wang Hao’s gaze became even more intense.
Faintly, a determined resolve could be seen flickering within them.
[I must get it, no matter what price I have to pay.]
*Huuuu…* Taking a deep breath, Wang Hao tightened his grip on the rusty longsword.
In an instant, an inexplicable energy began to circulate on the rusty longsword. Visible to the naked eyes, the rust on the sword slowly faded away, revealing an indescribable sharpness.
The White Emperor Sword was the sword of inheritance, and happened to be Wang Hao’s biggest trump card.
However, just as Wang Hao revealed his desire, the Titanoboa also could not suppress its desire while gazing at the continuously blooming Five-Color Spirit Flower at the center of the lake.
*Hisss, hisss…*
Hissing toward the sky, its massive and terrifying body slowly coiled around, a touch of greed surging through the depths of its scarlet eyes.
The next moment, its body suddenly bounded, darting out in an instant like an arrow fired from a bow.
*Boom…* Its massive body generated a fearsome gust of wind, spreading its nauseating smell in the air.
“How dare…”
*Screech!*
One after another, Wang Hao and the Northern Darkness Bird in the sky promptly shot towards the Giant Python.
At the same time, if one looked in other directions, he or she would undoubtedly see mysterious figures in enigmatic uniforms also pouncing out.
However, just at that moment, unnoticed by anyone, the figure standing quietly by the lake had her fiery long hair suddenly fluttering. At the same time, her eyes suddenly flickered as a five-color radiance bloomed in the depths of her eyes.
“Kaleidoscope of Fire Butterflies.”
Suddenly, a cold and sweet voice echoed in the night sky, but it immediately caused the Humans and Mutant Beasts, all to shudder.
After a moment, in the astonished sight of Mutant Beasts and Humans, countless illusory Fire Butterflies, like real fire, emerged out of nowhere.
One after another…
For a moment, the sky above the lake was filled with fluttering Fire Butterflies.
Yet, those illusory butterflies caused the expressions of Mutant Beasts and even Humans to drastically change.
Because at this moment, the temperature of the surroundings started to rise at an astonishing pace.
*Boom…*
The temperature rose to such a degree that the air started to distort, blurring everyone’s vision. Then, one Fire Butterfly after another continued to expand in their sight.
“No…” A piercing scream echoed in the night sky.
Looking up, a Fire Butterfly actually fluttered toward a mysteriously dressed figure.
And in a moment, before the mysterious figure could even react, the Fire Butterfly suddenly blew up, covering the sky with an explosion of purple flames.
The explosion and the searing heat brought so much pain that the Tier-1 Superhuman could not help but scream.
However, his scream did not last for so long, as the only thing left of the Tier-1 Superhuman was a wisp of smoke that slowly dissipated in the air.
*Gulp* Mutant Beasts and Humans subconsciously gulped. Their pupils could not help but shrink, looking at the approaching Fire Butterflies.
Some of them even drew back.
However, just at that moment, a terrifying figure attracted everyone’s attention. Its palm-sized jet-black scales gleamed menacingly in the moonlight. Its blood-red eyes, resembling lanterns, exuded a brutal and ferocious gleam.
The Titanoboa never knew fear.
Its formidable body was its greatest confidence.
However, the next moment, Titanoboa’s expression changed.
*Boom!* A Fire Butterfly landed on its body, unleashing an explosion of towering purple flames. Immediately, a pain that reached deep into its Soul coursed through its entire body.
This eerie purple flame not only burned its physical form but also its Soul.
*Hisss, hisss…*
For a moment, shrill hisses echoed across the sky.
