Yun Che slowly opened his eyes. This time, his gaze completely changed, becoming even sharper. His fearless aura flowed freely, appearing unbridled.
His eyes looked straight at Mo Su, and his whole body emanated the unique power of the Cloud Emperor. The feeling of looking up to him in the past had completely disappeared.
But Yun Che concealed the transformation of his inner thoughts very well.
"You're finally awake. How are you feeling?" Mo Su had been quietly waiting for Yun Che to wake up the entire time, never leaving his side. He was eagerly anticipating what astonishing improvements Yun Che had made after completing his transformation. After all, this was crucial to saving Pan Xiaodie.
Yun Che remained silent, yet without warning, the aura surrounding him suddenly became chaotic. In an instant, his face turned as pale as paper, clearly suffering a severe blow to his soul. Immediately afterwards, a mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth, splashing onto the colorful cloud branch beside him, staining the vibrant blossoms a deep crimson.
Seeing this, Mo Su's brows furrowed in a deep frown. Just moments ago, he hadn't noticed anything unusual about Yun Che, but now, such a dangerous situation suddenly occurred, causing his heart to suddenly tighten. Because soul injuries were difficult to detect quickly, Mo Su had no way of ascertaining Yun Che's true condition.
“How long has it been since I arrived… since I came here?” Yun Che clutched his chest and struggled to speak, not paying attention to his physical condition.
At this moment, he seemed to be suffering from excruciating pain as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart. He was sweating profusely and the pain on his face was clearly visible.
"Fourteen days." Although Mo Su was puzzled by Yun Che's question, he still answered truthfully.
It took Yun Che fourteen days to complete the three stages of the Great Dao Buddha Art, while the transformation of his soul took only a few hours.
“Oh no…” Anxiety instantly spread across Yun Che’s face. “The Netherworld Udumbara Flower I’m using to repair the damage to my soul is about to bloom!”
“Netherworld Udumbara Flower?” Mo Su naturally knew about this strange flower that grew in extremely cold and gloomy places, but he really didn’t understand what use this flower had for Yun Che at the moment.
“Indeed, I originally wanted to use the Netherworld Udumbara Flower’s dark energy to heal the wounds of my soul, but now it seems that this idea will be in vain.” A trace of bitterness appeared on Yun Che’s face.
"With me here, why would you need that Netherworld Udumbara Flower? Just let go of your mind, and I'll restore your spirit to its original state." Mo Su dismissed this. After all, his spirit possessed the same healing power as the Great Wilderness, so repairing the wounds to his spirit was not difficult for him.
“No, this isn’t for me. I intend to use it on Pan Xiaodie. Only with the help of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower can her soul recover quickly. Otherwise, with the injuries she has sustained, it would be impossible for her soul to recover in the short term.” Yun Che hurriedly explained.
“Yun Che, you actually tried to deceive me. Do you think I don’t know the function of this Netherworld Udumbara Flower?” Mo Su sneered, as if he had seen through Yun Che’s plan, and watched him continue his “acting” with interest.
Anger suddenly surged across Yun Che's face. "Mosu, what do you know? Do you know where the miracle of life in me comes from? And how much do you know about the records of the Netherworld Udumbara Flower in the miracle of life?"
"Back then, I went through great pains to find those few Netherworld Udumbara flowers, and I was already preparing to save the Pan Xiao Butterfly today. Do you think I've just been wasting my time doing nothing all these years?"
Yun Che's series of harsh questions caused a wave of hesitation in Mo Su's heart. He truly knew nothing about the contents of the miracle of life, and at this moment, whether he could trust Yun Che, and whether he should trust him, became a decision that Mo Su urgently needed to make.
“You know, the Netherworld Udumbara flower blooms only once every twenty-four years, and each bloom only lasts for three days. What I need is a Netherworld Udumbara flower with twelve complete petals. It can completely purify the soul, and combined with my life miracle, it can make all soul injuries disappear in an instant.” Seeing that Mo Su remained unmoved, Yun Che continued to explain, the urgency on his face even more clearly visible.
"I estimated the time it would take to get here and reserved fifteen days for the flowers to bloom. But now, I'm afraid it's too late to make a round trip. I'm so seriously injured that I'm unable to pick them. It seems I'll miss the best time to save the butterfly."
Yun Che sighed helplessly. His voice seemed filled with deep regret for Pan Xiaodie, and he seemed to feel that it was not worth it for all his careful preparations over the years to go to waste.
The injury to his soul did not seem to be fake, but more like a sequelae caused by the recent transformation of his soul.
"Boy, you'd better not lie to me. I will send the four great priests to pick them personally. Just give me the coordinates of the location!" After hesitating for a while, Mo Su finally chose to compromise and decided to let the four priests he trusted most help him complete this difficult task.
"No! The Netherworld Udumbara Flower grows in the Primordial Death Abyss. Even if the Four Great Priests were to go, it would be impossible to pick it unscathed. Furthermore, a round trip from the Mist Sea would take at least three days. There simply isn't enough time. It's absolutely impossible to accomplish this." Yun Che said firmly, "Don't you have the Panming Poxu Mirror? You are the only one in the world who could possibly accomplish this."
Yun Che made no secret of his purpose; instead, his expression revealed a frank eagerness. He knew in his heart that the only person capable of completing this arduous task within such a tight timeframe was Abyss Emperor. Only Abyss Emperor possessed this ability.
“Don’t you want Pan Xiaodie to fully recover and stand before you alive again? You can’t even meet such a small request?” Yun Che continued to use Pan Xiaodie as a breakthrough point to directly attack Mo Su’s heart and soul. This was undoubtedly the most direct and effective method.
