Ayao and Feng Chu followed her, and the deeper they went, the more they felt the air was filled with a strong aura of death, and a cold wind blew from below, making them feel chilly.
An eerie aura emanated from below. My divine sense still couldn't penetrate what lay below, a fact that made me feel incredibly unsafe.
Ayao and Feng Chu didn't speak, but they couldn't help but communicate telepathically.
Feng Chu: "Why does this feel increasingly eerie? Is this guy trying to trick us?"
Ayao: "Didn't you just say you were going to help her? Are you having second thoughts now?"
Feng Chu: "Wasn't it because she was crying so pitifully?"
Ayao chuckled and continued to transmit her voice: "I didn't realize you were so chivalrous."
Ayao winked at Feng Chu and even gave him a flirtatious look, which made the black-haired, golden-eyed boy blush. He glared at Ayao and said, "Stop talking!"
After saying that, he ignored Ayao.
Even though he is over a thousand years old now, Feng Chu's appearance and temperament have not changed, and he still has the mind of a thirteen-year-old.
Both A Yao and Feng Chu possessed divine senses far exceeding their current cultivation levels. Their telepathic communication went unnoticed by the red-clad girl, but it couldn't escape the notice of Xie Chen, who was following behind them. For a Celestial Emperor like Xie Chen, Feng Chu and A Yao's encrypted communication was clearly ineffective.
Seeing the boy's flushed cheeks, Xie Chen's lips curled up slightly.
Suddenly, many restrictions appeared ahead, and the girl in red stopped in her tracks, as did A Yao and Feng Chu. The girl in red formed hand seals, casting spells onto the restriction array, causing the light barrier formed by the array to disappear.
“It’s inside,” the girl in red said.
She flew towards the entrance ahead, with A Yao and Feng Chu following behind her.
Inside the enormous cavern, skeletons were everywhere, and on the skeletons bloomed alluring red spider lilies. The red light emitted by the vast expanse of spider lilies illuminated the entire cavern, and on one of the protruding rocks, a single spider lily bloomed exceptionally beautifully.
The petals of that red spider lily were as red as if they were stained with blood, and the crimson glow shimmered like ripples, illuminating the entire cave.
"This, this is..."
Ayao stared at the red spider lily in disbelief, exclaiming in shock, "The primordial red spider lily..."
Although she had never seen the original spider lily before, her intuition told her that this was the legendary original spider lily, containing the power of the laws of the underworld, the first spider lily in the world.
"Is this the original spider lily?" Feng Chu looked at A Yao.
Ayao said, "I guessed."
After saying that, he looked at the girl in red and asked, "Is this the primordial spider lily?"
The girl in red nodded.
The other end of the red chain on her foot was connected to the rock beneath where the original spider lilies bloomed. That rock was pitch black and covered with many restrictions. Ayao saw that the characters on it were Primordial Demon Script, a very ancient script.
Ayao's gaze fell upon the piles of bones. Some of these dead creatures looked incredibly powerful. She asked the girl in red, "Who are these guys?"
"They all wanted that red spider lily, but unfortunately they weren't destined for it, so they died," the girl in red sighed.
Feng Chu: "..."
Ayao: "..."
So, if they weren't destined to be together, would they also have to become skeletons lying here?
"How can I tell if I'm the one you're meant to be with?" Ayao asked.
“Go pick a flower. If the flower is willing to let you pick it, then you are the one destined for it. If it is unhappy, it will kill you. If you die, it proves that you are not the one destined for it,” said the girl in red.
Ayao: "..."
Feng Chu: "..."
Even Xie Chen, who was following behind them, was speechless.
"Which of you two would like to try first and see if you can pick the Primordial Spider Lily?" The girl in red looked at A Yao and Feng Chu, her eyes shining. She really wanted someone to pick the flower so she could leave this place.
Feng Chu: "..."
Ayao: "..."
Feng Chu looked at A Yao and said, "Why don't you give it a try first?"
Ayao looked at Feng Chu and said with a smile, "Why don't you go first?"
At that moment, they were both cursing in their hearts.
"Among these dead guys, what level of strength did the most powerful one reach?" Feng Chu asked the girl in red.
The girl in red said, "The Celestial King."
Immediately, Feng Chu and A Yao both silently took a step back, wanting to get further away from the primordial spider lily. The girl in red saw their actions and knew that they no longer had any intention of picking the flower, so she immediately sat down to the side and began to sob again.
"Waaaaah..."
Large, glistening tears streamed down her cheeks as she sobbed uncontrollably, her grief heart-wrenching.
"Why am I so unlucky? More than 80 million years have passed, and that damned destined person still hasn't appeared. How much longer do I have to stay here? Waaah..."
Feng Chu: "..."
Ayao: "..."
Hey! You're such a long-lived monster, why are you crying like a child? But thinking about it, she really is quite pitiful.
Just then, the primordial spider lily suddenly emitted an even more dazzling red light. It flew off the rock and towards A-Yao, hovering in front of her. The red flower emitted a faint glow, illuminating A-Yao's beautiful face, and A-Yao showed shock.
Feng Chu and the girl in red both showed expressions of shock, and Xie Chen also showed a flash of surprise.
This is automatic master selection.
Ayao reached out and picked up the red spider lily floating in front of her. With a crack, the rock where the primordial spider lily had bloomed shattered, the runes on it disappeared, and the chains that had bound the girl in red also vanished.
"The chains are gone! I'm free! I'm free! Hahahahahaha..."
The girl in red floated up and spun around in the air several times, her laughter echoing around her; she was overjoyed.
"So you're the one I'm destined to meet." Feng Chu looked at the flower arrangement in A Yao's hand.
Ayao smiled and said, "I didn't expect this either."
As she spoke, she absorbed the primordial spider lily into her primordial spirit. Then she said to the girl in red, "The Bridge of Helplessness only appears for a limited time."
Upon hearing this, the girl in red immediately flew outside. Feng Chu and A Yao followed behind her, and the group left the huge cave one after another.
————
In the sky, the red moon hangs high, and on the glowing Bridge of Helplessness, a vast stream of souls are flying towards the path of reincarnation shrouded in mist.
Ayao and Feng Chu looked at the girl in red in front of them. Ayao asked, "Are you really planning to be reincarnated like this?"
“You are free now, so there’s no need to reincarnate, right? Who knows what you’ll become after reincarnation? Your current cultivation will be completely gone after reincarnation, and you’ll have to start all over again,” Feng Chu said.
