Chapter 1212: Ultimate Blooming Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy
Xuan Bing always believed in her own power. Although she wouldn’t just throw the misty lotuses away, she was never interested. She did carry some with her but had never used them ever. With such a treasure, she actually didn’t use it. In fact, after taking the metal lotuses with her for some time, she thought that it might make her heart weaker and weaker because of the sense of safety from the treasure.
One day, when she finished a journey, she took them off and sealed them in Misty Cloud Palace as the treasure of the sect.
When Bing Xinyue recruited Wenren Chuchu, Xuan Bing found that Wenren Chuchu was quite talented. In fact, the little girl was the most potential disciple among all.
If she could be adequately well trained, she might become a more significant figure in the world than any forefathers of the sect.
That was why Xuan Bing gave the misty lotuses to Wenren Chuchu after having them sealed for a long time. Misty Lotus became the last chance Wenren Chuchu could have when she was in a desperate situation. When Xuan Bing taught her how to activate Misty Lotus, she warned her not to use it before she had to.
Misty Lotus was undoubtedly an incredible strike, but it required an incredible power to activate it. Before Wenren Chuchu reached Dao Origin Stage, she wasn’t able to activate it at all. If she tried to do it forcibly, she would get a reverse impact. That meant she would die!
She liked lotus, so when she got the misty lotuses, she just put them on her clothes. She didn’t intend to conceal it from others. However, there weren’t many people who knew about misty lotus. Even those who happened to know about it wouldn’t believe a young woman would put such valuable treasure on her clothes. That was why the lotuses on her clothes never drew any attention.
Now that it was the critical moment of her life. The only thing she could do was to activate Misty Lotus with every bit of her power!
She wanted to use the power of Misty Lotus to slow down the enemies so her master could have more time to get away!
She didn’t have time to consider whether her power was enough to activate it or not. She didn’t care if she would get a reverse impact afterward. She believed she was going to die soon. It was pointless to consider anything else!
She kept rotating fast in the sky. The cold qi that she emitted actually shocked the enemies all. Suddenly, there was fog everywhere. n.o.body knew where the fog came from.
As the fog turned denser, she became more invisible. She was inside the fog, like a real person but also like an illusion. She was still rotating.
Bing Xinyue didn’t seize the opportunity to leave though. She kept shouting and flying back fast. However, even she couldn’t get closer to Wenren Chuchu.
When Misty Lotus was activated, all people, not only enemies but also companions were affected. Wenren Chuchu was lost in it. Even if mountains were falling, she couldn’t hear, let alone Bing XInyue’s shouts.
On the other side, Tan Qingfeng and his people swung their swords. The sword lights dashed out dozens of meters, piercing into the fog. However, it was like a mud sculpture getting into the water. Nothing happened. They couldn’t approach her.
The entire area gradually became like a swamp. They all felt like they couldn’t move their feet anymore.
The next moment, a clear voice was sounding. It was Wenren Chuchu.
“A flower in the clouds…”
The fog was getting denser. The wind was blowing stronger. It seemed to be some flowers showing up in the fog, beautiful flowers.
Tan Qingfeng took a deep breath. He looked pretty cautious. He stopped the others and spoke deeply, “Careful guys. It seems to be some unique martial art. Don’t waste your power on the attacks. Just stay alerted.”
The others were all experienced cultivators. They all nodded to agree.
Wenren Chuchu’s voice came from inside the fog again.
“A lotus in the mist…”
The fog became denser and denser. It suddenly covered the entire place within several hundred meters. Countless flowers were showing up in the fog. Those were lotus buds!
“Thousands of mountains are shaking…”
Wenren Chuchu’s voice was shaking. There was blood coming out from the corner of her mouth. It seemed there was also blood in her ears, nose, and eyes…
In fact, to forcibly activate Misty Lotus, she was killing herself. In fact, she might not be able to live until the Misty Lotus was activated.
There was a reason why Wenren Chuchu could hang on for such a long time. She got some help from Tan Qingfeng!
Tan Qingfeng was cautious. He realized that Wenren Chuchu must be preparing for some powerful strike, so he warned the others that they should be cautious and stop attacking. Normally he was right to do so.
However, that helped Wenren Chuchu a lot. The fog that was created by Misty Lotus could deceive the enemies and also resist the attacks from the enemies, but it costed a certain price. If Wenren Chuchu was in level six like Bing Xinyue, she might get enough energy to keep the fog working.
However, she wasn’t even in Dao Origin Stage. She was operating Misty Lotus by merely consuming her persistence. The fog could deceive the enemies, but not really work well on resisting the attacks. If those men kept attacking, they might hit Wenren Chuchu by luck, or consume the fog’s energy. Both could get Wenren Chuchu killed.
However, Tan Qingfeng kept asking others to stop attacking. That was helping Wenren Chuchu to finish Misty Lotus!
Although Misty Lotus wasn’t fully formed yet, it had already created strong winds that rolled the fog around.
One flow of strong wind happened to fly to Tan Qingfeng.
Tan Qingfeng had prepared to defend himself, so he quickly raised up his sword. – Dang! – It sounded like an ancient bell. His sword was buzzing. He suddenly got shocked and actually staggered back a little.
That was only a blowing wind! It actually made a level nine Dao Origin Stage cultivator stagger!
Most importantly, Wenren Chuchu hadn’t done operating the final strike yet!
Tan Qingfeng thought for one second, and his face turned dark. He shouted hurriedly, “Back off!”
Before he finished, he started to move backward first.
When he just started to move, Wenren Chuchu’s eyes emitted beams of hatred. Suddenly, blood was erupting out from her nose, mouth, eyes, and ears in the dense fog…
At the moment, her voice was almost inaudible…
“It rules… for centuries… of… years…”
Finally, she spoke all. The spiritual power, life energy, mind power, and energies in any other form… were entirely drained!
They all became the power of Misty Lotus!
