Chapter 591 Seed
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had no idea what was happening in the outside world. They pretended to be geniuses of the demon clan and officially entered the second level.
The second floor is filled with the fragrance of flowers, flowers in full bloom, and beautiful scenery everywhere.
This is an endless flower garden, in the garden there is a graceful figure squatting on the ground, smelling the fragrance of flowers.
When Qianying saw everyone coming to the second floor, she stood up, smiled, and applauded to welcome them.
"Everyone, welcome to the second level. I am the spirit of the secret realm. You can call me Luo Hong."
The spirit of the secret realm is something that only exists in the secret realm built during the Tribulation Period. It is not a living being, but more like a set magic.
It’s just that this magic has gained enough experience to imitate the way life thinks.
The Creation Secret Realm is an ancient secret realm. When the rules were announced on the first level, the current language was used, because the spirit of the secret realm, Luo Hong, was learning.
When the owner of the secret realm is not around, the spirit of the secret realm has the greatest authority in the secret realm.
"Hello, senior."
Although they knew that this was a magic, no one dared to treat Luo Hong as a magician and performed the salute seriously.
"It seems that this session is still polite."
Luo Hong would not let them off just because she was polite. She clapped her hands gently, and a flowerpot and a seed fell on everyone's head.
"The first level tests your strength, and the second level tests your quality."
"The test for this level is very simple. It's just planting flowers."
"What you hold in your hands are the seeds of the Moon Shadow Flower. When it blooms, it will be like a beautiful lady dancing in the moon. It is so beautiful."
"The growth cycle of the Moon Shadow Flower is fifteen days. What you have to do is to make the flower grow in the flowerpot within these fifteen days. If you pass the level, I will not supervise you during this period."
“The more vigorously the flowers grow, the higher the rating.”
"Please note that during this period you cannot use spells, magic treasures, or any other means of cultivating immortality."
"And you can't talk to each other. You have to plant flowers independently."
Seeing that everyone was a little nervous, Luo Hong smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous. Moon Shadow Flower is very easy to grow. It will take root and sprout as soon as it touches the soil."
"Fairy, have you heard of the Moon Shadow Flower?" Lu Yang asked secretly.
"Yes, I have heard of it. This flower is very beautiful and popular. Since you haven't heard of it, it is probably extinct now."
The second level of rules sounds simple, but it’s a pity that I can’t discuss it with Lao Meng.
Jiang Shishi held the flowerpot, buried the seeds in the soil, loosened the soil and watered them, taking good care of them, but the Moon Shadow Flower showed no signs of sprouting.
Jiang Shishi frowned and instinctively wanted to find Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to discuss it, but when she remembered that the rules prohibited discussion, she had to give up.
She began to recall the rules over and over again, wondering if she had missed anything.
"If it were Fellow Daoist Lu Yang, how would he think..."
…
Fifteen days passed quickly and the day of acceptance arrived.
The geniuses of the demon race and the two pure-blooded humans stood in a row, waiting for Luo Hong's evaluation.
Standing in the first row is Su Lian'er from the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
Su Lian'er was dressed in white and looked extremely beautiful. She was holding a flower pot and looked very pitiful.
The flowerpot was empty.
Luo Hong frowned: "Where are your flowers?"
Su Lian'er's tears fell down in big drops, making people unable to help but wipe her tears.
"Originally the flower was growing well, but I inherited the legacy of my ancestors, and I have a beauty that can make fish sink to the bottom of the water, geese fall to the ground, and the moon hide in shame. As soon as the Moon Shadow Flower bloomed, it withered and died when it saw me."
Luo Hong stared at Su Lian'er for a long time, and finally let out a breath slowly.
"Never mind, you pass."
The second one is Jiang Shishi.
In Jiang Shishi's flowerpot, the moon shadow flowers are in full bloom, which is a beautiful sight.
Luo Hong nodded, and it was considered passed.
Next is Ao Yue.
Ao Yue's flowerpot was also empty, with no moon shadow flowers.
"Where are your flowers?"
Ao Yue clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Senior, I have not planted any flowers."
"Give me a reason."
Hearing this question, Ao Yue straightened his back and said with a smile: "Senior said at the beginning that the second level tests quality. In my opinion, the seeds you gave us cannot grow Moon Shadow Flowers. This level tests our honesty!"
"…You are eliminated."
"Why!" Ao Yue was anxious. He felt that he should be able to pass the level.
Luo Hong sneered: "How dare you ask why? I did give you cooked seeds that can't grow flowers, but who told you that this level tests honesty? The human race is cunning and shameless, so what honesty do the demons have? Can you defeat the human race with your honesty?"
"This level tests lies."
"Although the little girl from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan told a crude lie, it was still a lie. I'll give her a pass."
"What about Jiang Shishi? How did she grow the Moon Shadow Flower?"
Luo Hong continued to sneer: "Didn't you listen to me when I told you the rules before? Let the flowers grow in the pots. When did I say that you should plant the seeds I gave you?"
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Ao Yue was speechless. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was indeed the case.
Not only Ao Yue, the geniuses of the demon clan behind him all held empty basins and lowered their heads in shame.
They all thought that Luo Hong was testing his honesty.
Jiang Shishi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. Fortunately, she imitated Lu Yang's way of thinking, studied the rules carefully, and figured out what Luo Hong wanted.
The genius of the demon clan who was ranked behind Ao Yue was eliminated without any surprise. Luo Hong walked all the way to Meng Jingzhou before stopping.
She looked Meng Jingzhou up and down, and she was somewhat concerned about his active performance in the first level.
"Where's your flower pot?"
Meng Jingzhou had nothing in his hands, not even flowers, not even a flowerpot.
"Please follow me."
Meng Jingzhou made a gesture of invitation and invited Luo Hong to come to a place full of moon shadow flowers. The moon shadow flowers were in clusters and extremely beautiful.
The bottom of Meng Jingzhou's flowerpot is hollowed out, like a wall surrounding the most lush cluster of moonflowers.
Meng Jingzhou scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, his mouth grinning from ear to ear: "Oh, I'm so sorry, I don't know what happened to the flowers I planted, they grew so much that they pushed a hole in the flowerpot, and now you see what it is like now."
"I remember you said that the more luxuriantly the flowers grow, the higher the evaluation will be, right?"
Luo Hong: “…”
I mean that the more vigorously the flowers grow, the higher the ratings, but you're going too far.
It was obvious that this level was about testing lies, so he started to make up stories.
"Clear."
The last one is Lu Yang. Lu Yang’s flowerpot is empty. Not to mention flowers, there is no soil even.
"Empty, you didn't pass..."
"Wait a moment." Lu Yang raised his hand to stop him.
"The condition for passing the level is to make the flowerpot grow flowers within fifteen days, right?"
"right."
"Then I've cleared the level."
"Where are your flowers?"
Lu Yang pointed to the flower beds all over the ground and said confidently: "In the past fifteen days, I have been planting the flowers in the flower beds into pots, moving them out, replacing them with another batch, and moving them out again."
“All the flowers in the flowerbed are grown in my pots.”
"If you don't believe me, you can check the roots of all the flowers in the flowerbed. They must be stained with the soil in my pots."
Luo Hong: “…”
The clearance condition is not the fifteenth day, but the fifteen days from the start of the competition.
Luo Hong himself didn't even realize there was a loophole in the rules.
"No, the second level tests whether you have the quality of lying." Luo Hong wanted to turn the situation around.
"Yeah, I just made that up."
