Chapter 356 - Lotus

"Is this the World's Edge?"

Mo Shuying looked around. The surroundings were completely like a wuxia world; the art style was all wrong.

Before him, Immortal Mountains towered, immortal mist turned into clouds, spirit flowers bloomed in competition, and spirit springs flowed down the mountains. He could also see many strangely shaped rocks.

At a glance, he didn't see any creatures, not even a bird. It was simply a beautiful landscape.

Mo Shuying flew out of Groudon, standing at the bow of the ship. As they passed through the spiritual mist, the abundant Mana even began to liquefy!

"What a blessed land for immortals. So, the question is, where's the Guardian?"

Mo Shuying glanced left and right. The scenery was nice, but was he here to sightsee?

"Is anyone there? Hello? Hello? Hello?"

Mo Shuying shouted towards the Immortal Mountain. His voice echoed among the mountains and strange rocks, but there was no other response.

"Strange... What does this mean? Do I have to find the Guardian myself?"

Mo Shuying frowned, looking at the Immortal Mountain. There was nothing particularly strange about it.

He didn't see any signs of an immortal's dwelling. The stream flowing down the mountain also didn't form a water curtain cave. Luckily, it wasn't; if it were a water curtain cave, he might even be quarantined.

There was nothing except a Lotus Pond at the mountain peak and the surrounding strange rock forest. There was nothing unusual elsewhere.

Mo Shuying had Groudon carry him over, landing beside the Lotus Pond.

The pond water was crystal clear to the bottom, not deep, allowing him to see everything in the water at a glance.

Although it was called a Lotus Pond, within the vast pond, besides large patches of lotus leaves, there was only one large lotus flower in the very center!

The large lotus flower had not yet bloomed, but it was already adult-sized. He hadn't seen it clearly from the air and had thought it was just an ordinary lotus.

"This lotus is treating me like I'm blind. Such a huge lotus, and it thinks I can't see it? Groudon! Flamethrower!"

*"Whoosh!"*

Crimson flames spewed from Groudon's head, instantly covering the entire Lotus Pond.

The flames burned, floating on the water yet continuing to burn. This was because Groudon was continuously outputting.

But soon, Mo Shuying frowned. The flames had been burning for so long, let alone boiling the water, there wasn't even a trace of steam!

Even more unsettling were the lotus leaves and that lotus flower! Not only were they not burned, but they became even more vibrant. The huge lotus bud even showed signs of opening, trembling slightly.

"What's going on? Something is indeed strange."

Mo Shuying muttered, his vigilance already high.

Just as Mo Shuying was wondering.

*"Boom!"*

There was a sudden unusual sound from the strange rock forest around the Lotus Pond! It was like thunder exploding on the ground! Several strange rocks flew up, rushing towards him with whistling wind!

"Hmm? What's the meaning of these rocks?"

Mo Shuying turned and threw a punch, striking the fastest strange rock!

*"Clang!"*

With a crisp sound, Mo Shuying narrowed his eyes. His punch, capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, had no effect whatsoever.

Not only did the rock not shatter, but it wasn't even pushed back. And that wasn't all, because more than one rock was flying towards him.

*"Bang bang bang bang bang!"*

A series of collisions sounded, and Mo Shuying was already hidden from view by the pile of rocks.

But Groudon was still outputting, not paying attention to Mo Shuying, because Mo Shuying hadn't told it to stop.

*"Bang!"*

A thick arm drilled out from between the rocks, pressing down on one of the strange rocks. With a forceful grip, this time, Mo Shuying's fingers burned with soul fire! He suddenly squeezed hard with his five fingers!

*"Boom!"*

This rock was actually crushed by Mo Shuying!

"Hmph!"

*"Boom!"*

Mo Shuying's Mana erupted, shaking off the rocks that were pressing him down. He looked at the rock that had been directly crushed, and then discovered that there was something inside the strange rock!

It was a golden brick. After breaking free from the strange rock, it floated up on its own and even learned to sneak attack.

*"Buzz!"*

As the Golden Brick trembled, Mo Shuying felt his spirit being stirred. It was an attack on the soul.

But Mo Shuying's mental strength was terrifying, like an unyielding pillar reaching the heavens. The Golden Brick's ability had no effect at all.

"Too weak, too weak! Is this all your power? Is this the so-called trial of the World's Edge? You've disappointed me greatly."

Mo Shuying quickly dashed to the Golden Brick, reaching out to grab it.

But the sound of breaking air appeared again. Mo Shuying turned, his fists blazing with fire, striking one strange rock after another, defeating and repelling all of them. When Mo Shuying got serious, these strange rocks could no longer resist.

And so, the rocks shattered in Mo Shuying's hands, revealing various items within.

Swords, blades, rings, ribbons, spears, wheels, embroidered balls, and finally, a Golden Brick!

"These? What are all these things? Why do they feel so familiar?"

Mo Shuying frowned, a bad feeling brewing in his heart.

He waved Groudon to stop breathing fire because Mo Shuying realized it was useless. Not only was it useless, but the giant flower bud was already on the verge of blooming.

Mo Shuying had noticed this phenomenon earlier, which was why he hadn't stopped Groudon's attack. He had come to this space to find the Guardian, but there was nothing else special about this area except for this lotus. So, Mo Shuying was trying to activate the lotus's power, wondering if someone would pop out of it!

"Swish swish swish swish swish!"

Just as he was thinking, the items that burst from the rocks rapidly flew towards the lotus. The eight items encircled the lotus, radiating golden light.

Seeing the situation, Mo Shuying understood. This meant the BOSS was about to make an appearance. So,

Shouldn't he make a few preparations to show his respect?

"Hohenheim!"

Mo Shuying switched to his mage card, an Elemental Demonic Sword appearing in his hand, and he plunged it into the ground beneath his feet.

*"Buzz!"*

A massive magic circle spread out, eventually enveloping the entire Lotus Pond. And as Mana poured in, five Elemental Spirits materialized above the Lotus Pond, gazing at the lotus.

"They say an Overlord-level spell is a good opener, but this is still a bit short. Let's use a Noble Phantasm too."

Mo Shuying pulled out the Elemental Demonic Sword and tossed it into the air.

The sword remained suspended, energy accumulating, ready to strike at any moment.

Then, Mo Shuying took out two Judas Kisses, set their detonators, and threw them into the Lotus Pond. He then jumped onto Groudon and retreated to a safe distance.

From a safe distance, Mo Shuying watched as the lotus began to bloom, its petals unfurling, golden light continuously pouring out from within.

"Three heads and six arms support heaven and earth, wrathful Nezha strikes the imperial bell."

A poetic declaration rang out, and the eight items flew into the lotus. Then, the Red Lotus bloomed, radiating golden light in all directions!

"Rise!"

Mo Shuying controlled the array. The five Elemental Spirits extended their hands, reaching to grasp the lotus, but a red light flashed! The five Elemental Spirits instantly shattered and dissipated!

"Hmph~"

Mo Shuying heard a soft hum. Inside the fully opened lotus, a red-haired girl sat cross-legged. She held a Red Silk Ribbon, waving it. It was this Red Silk Ribbon that had just shattered the Elemental Spirits!
