Chapter 270 Lotus Sea Removes the Gu, Twin Blossoms Bloom Together
Stepping into the painting, the scene before Huali's eyes changed.
She felt fortunate as she watched.
Thankfully, I met a brave old monk who was pursuing love today; otherwise, even if I had gotten in, I wouldn't know where Lian Zhuo was hiding.
As far as the eye could see was a vast, boundless void, so silent it was unsettling.
In the center of the void, a huge golden lotus platform emanates the only source of light.
Huali spotted the figure curled up on it almost immediately.
"Lian Zhuo!" You little brat, she finally caught you!
Huali ran towards the lotus platform with the sutra scroll in her arms.
As the distance shortened, Lian Zhuo's figure became clearer and clearer. After seeing his appearance, Hua Li's heart clenched tightly!
"Lotus wash?"
Although she sensed something was wrong when Ao Bai mentioned the Soul-Gathering Bottle, seeing it with her own eyes now, the situation was far more dire than she had imagined.
On the lotus platform, the snow-white monk's robe, once bathed in lotus water, was now stained with dark red blood. Where the robe was torn, the bloodstains on the cold, pale skin were a shocking sight.
The suppressed blood gu has now accumulated enough power, and it is constantly transforming into dark, surging streams of light within his body, attempting to break through the seal time and time again.
Visible gold patterns meandered along Lian Zhuo's wrist and collarbone.
"The cycle of flourishing and decay, the essence!"
Without saying a word, Huali cut her finger, and the wood-type card flew towards him with a pure, healing light.
However, the blood that usually suppressed the blood gu was now like pouring oil on a raging fire, offering no relief whatsoever, but instead causing Lian Zhuo to groan.
After repeated intense suppression, the Blood Gu retaliated like a raging torrent, and its thirst could not be quenched by a single drop of blood.
He... had long since evolved from simply "seeking blood" into a deeper desire...
*
The lotus platform trembled from the successive blows, and in extreme pain, Lian Zhuo slowly opened her eyes.
A phantom...it's another phantom!
He entered the Pure Land of Lotus, and there was absolutely no way for Huali to find him.
"Lian Zhuo, hang in there, I'm coming to help you!"
But... even as an illusion, upon hearing the girl's voice, he still couldn't ignore it...
"Hua...pear?"
"I'm here, don't worry, everything will be fine soon."
However, the illusion before them did not dissipate as before; in fact, it even responded.
Lian Zhuo's fingertips twitched slightly, her voice hoarse as if trying to discern, "You...how...are you here?"
"The old monk came for me. Don't move, I'm coming to help you!" Hua Li held up the dragon pearl in her hand. "This can cure the blood curse. I got it in the Abyss of Realms."
“I understand…” Lian Zhuo frowned and then relaxed.
"I'll start right now!"
Huali continuously mobilized all her spiritual power, trying to guide the power from the dragon pearl.
"Leave the Dragon Pearl behind."
Lian Zhuo slowly shook her head, "If you leave... I will... hurt you..."
"Don't even think about it! This dragon pearl uses poison to fight poison, so things are definitely going to get tough. I'm not going anywhere, I'm staying here with you!"
Huali wouldn't listen at all.
Soon, the black light band within the dragon pearl, guided by her, cautiously probed towards Lian Zhuo.
The moment the two forces came into contact was like a lurking venomous snake encountering a newly arrived tiger.
The Dragon Pearl and the Blood Gu, their primal powers began to fight each other.
Using poison to fight poison, Lian Zhuo's desperately suppressed desires were instantly amplified a hundredfold.
Twin lotus blossoms appeared out of thin air beneath the enormous pear tree in his mind's eye. Lian Zhuo's body jolted violently. Oh no!
A flash of Buddhist light appeared in his hand, and his faint clarity burst forth with its last strength, "Hualin...leave."
Before the Buddha's light could be emitted, the scarlet lotus pattern between his eyebrows burst forth with dazzling blood light!
at the same time--
The entire enormous golden lotus platform seemed to have lost its support, and with a loud "boom," it plummeted from the suspended void.
As the shockwave was generated, Lian Zhuo coughed up a mouthful of blood.
When he raised his head again—
The worry and clarity he had felt earlier faded away like the tide in his eyes.
Instead, there is a deep, unfathomable abyss with an eerie tranquility.
Beneath this deep abyss, surging, lies a desire for control that has been suppressed to the extreme.
The struggling expression on Lian Zhuo's face disappeared.
He stared intently at the girl in front of him, a barely perceptible smile curving his lips.
Since we parted ways at Baiyun Mountain... it truly has been...
...Long time no see.
