Chapter 1379: Chapter 1378 The Birth of the Five Elements Lotus

“We must deliver a fatal blow to the Demon Lord to prevent him from resurging and becoming a major threat.”

Hearing Old Mo’s indifferent reply, the Golden Crow Great Saint laughed somewhat desolately.

“So, in order to eliminate the Demon Lord, it doesn’t matter if our Heavenly Fire Family is completely wiped out, right.”

“In warfare, sacrifice is inevitable,” Old Mo said.

“However, future generations will always remember the sacrifice of the Heavenly Fire Family, and this is worthwhile.”

“If someone must be sacrificed, why isn’t it your Holy Court?

Why is it us, the Heavenly Fire Family?” the Golden Crow Great Saint questioned.

But Old Mo merely closed his eyes slightly, sinking into silence.

“Negotiating with the tiger, you are nothing but the tiger’s food.”

Xu Zimei shook his head and said, “Your Heavenly Fire Family originally guarded one region.

Was being your own local emperor not good enough?

Why get involved in this matter, the Heavenly Fire Family is not worthy!”

“Since that’s the case, if we must die, then let’s all die together,” the Golden Crow Great Saint seemed to grow a bit frantic.

His eyes glinted with bloodlust.

The flames around him grew increasingly intense.

“With my life, restart the Flame Lotus,” the Golden Crow Great Saint softly commanded.

Suddenly, all life force around him, along with the flames, was stripped away.

Transforming into a cluster of red light, it began to sink into the earth.

Others didn’t understand, but the Nether King and the Pill Saint apparently realized something.

They hurriedly shouted, “Golden Crow, don’t.”

“Why not, it’s always them.

Taking them down together would at least honor the dead souls of our clansmen.”

Finally, as all life force was drained away,

the body of the Golden Crow Great Saint grew more and more blurred.

Until at last, a light breeze gently blew,

and his body, like a dandelion, scattered utterly away.

Thus, a Great Saint died.

A death that even the Life and Death Soul couldn’t salvage.

“What did this guy do?” the woman of the Blazing Flame Grand Envoy asked.

“A kind of sacrificial offering, he’s summoning something,” Xu Zimei said with a furrowed brow.

“Summoning, the Heavenly Fire Family even brought out the Ancestral Fire Source.

What else could they summon?” the woman asked suspiciously.

However, the next moment, she seemed to have thought of something.

Exchanging a glance with Xu Zimei.

They spoke in unison the words “Five Elements Lotus.”

Indeed, as soon as the words fell,

the entire Lotus Pond Secluded Path began shaking.

The ground cracked with countless fissures.

From within these cracks, countless crimson leaves danced out.

And the realm in which everyone stood,

at this moment, was beginning to change.

Above, the huge lotus flowers of the Five Elements Lotus were originally tightly closed, almost obscuring the sky.

But now, after countless years of slumber, the Five Elements Lotus was spreading its flowers apart.

The blue sky was seen for the first time.

The entire Lotus Pond Secluded Path was filled with a rich power of the Five Elements.

However, among Five Elements, fire was still the dominant force.

The Heavenly Fire Family had nurtured it for countless years.

Fire-attributed Spiritual Energy floated in the void.

Many took a breath and could feel the air they inhaled scorch their stomachs.

The Five Elements Lotus was reviving, continuously emanating a formidable momentum.

Throughout the entire Lotus Pond Secluded Path, explosions resounded without end.

“Quickly leave here, the Five Elements Lotus has gone berserk,” Old Mo was the first to notice the anomaly and shouted.

The Golden Crow Great Saint had gone completely mad.

He intended to kill everyone within this Lotus Pond Secluded Path.

He rose into the air, trying to leave the Lotus Pond Secluded Path swiftly.

Alas, it was still too late.

Because in the sky, if anyone dared attempt to escape,

the massive lotus leaves of the Five Elements Lotus would immediately smack them back down.

The power of the Five Elements Lotus was nearly surpassing the level of the Holy King.

Of course, this doesn’t mean it can rival a Dao Fruit Powerhouse.

But rather ordinary Holy Kings couldn’t even contend with it.

It was originally a divine lotus born from heaven and earth.

It has stood in this world for innumerable ages.

Now that it has revived once more, its might is naturally unmatched.

The Pill Saint sighed deeply.

He knew that no matter how this ended, the Heavenly Fire Family was completely doomed.

……

The awakening of the Five Elements Lotus continued.

But the entire Lotus Pond Secluded Path had been completely sealed off.

Not only the few Great Saints but even the native residents of Lotus Pond Secluded Path were as panic-stricken as headless ants.

“What should we do?” the woman of the Blazing Flame Grand Envoy looked at Xu Zimei and asked.

“Don’t worry, this Five Elements Lotus won’t stir up too much trouble,” Xu Zimei calmly shook his head.

“The only thing I worry about is whether your Sun Palace will come or not.

Otherwise, I might have to put in extra effort.”

“Do you have the confidence to deal with this Five Elements Lotus?” the woman asked.

“If it were a true Five Elements Lotus, it would indeed be challenging,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

“Unfortunately, now it’s more appropriate to call it a Flame Lotus.”

Xu Zimei was not wrong.

The other four elements of this Five Elements Lotus had been suppressed, with only the power of the fire attribute filling the entire lotus.

The whole Lotus Pond Secluded Path seemed to be boiling.

Many ordinary people couldn’t withstand it and were effectively burnt to death by the intense heat.

Just then, indigo-tinged leaves flew in from the void.

Some people, unable to dodge in time, were directly enveloped by the leaves, reduced to nothingness.

“Quickly dodge,” the Lotus Pond Secluded Path had entirely become a ruin.

Countless panicked voices could be heard.

Evidently, no one wanted to be swept away by the lotus leaves.

“What should we do?” the woman of the Blazing Flame Grand Envoy asked.

“Find the core of the Five Elements Lotus,” Xu Zimei said.

At this moment, he couldn’t be bothered with Old Mo and their affairs.

He directly put away the Heaven-slaying Blood River Great Array and led the woman northward through the Lotus Pond Secluded Path.

Because there, power surged with ever-increasing intensity.

Each surge was stronger than the last.

Like rising tides, a terrifying presence was awakening.

The closer they got to the terrifying aura, the more densely packed the lotus leaves became.

The speed increased rapidly too.

Forming a heavenly net earthly trap pattern, leaving no room to dodge.

Xu Zimei wielded the Tyrant Shadow, since there was no avoiding it, he had no choice but to charge through.

And the woman of the Blazing Flame Grand Envoy was surrounded by golden flames burning brightly.

The flames were indeed domineering, and as lotus leaves approached, they were set ablaze.

The two pressed forward, ultimately reaching the northernmost border of the Lotus Pond Secluded Path.

At that edge, an unparalleled lotus had already broken through the ground.

Despite the immense size of this Five Elements Lotus, forming the Lotus Pond Secluded Path,

its true core lay precisely in the unparalleled lotus before them.

Seeing the two humans approach,

the Five Elements Lotus appeared somewhat enraged.

“Five-Element Strangulation,” lotuses flew out from the void.

Each lotus carried the power of the Five Elements in each petal.

Yet still, the power of fire was the most dominant, rendering the once sacred petals crimson.

Power of the Five Elements descended from the sky, forming a strangulating path.
