Chapter 610
<hr>
“I didn’t expect the Five Thunders incantation to be so useful in the Wind Thunder Abyss!” It was the first time Shangguan Yu realized the power of incantations . She felt that the thunderbolts earlier were already close to the emperor-cla.s.s .
Li Fuchen nodded, “But the Thunder Heart Lake’s thunder arcs aren’t within my control . ”
“That is because your Five Thunders incantation’s proficiency isn’t that high . Of course, as compared to your cultivation time, it is already extremely competent . ” Shangguan Yu felt that her innate perception was already rather good, but in comparison to Li Fuchen, she seemed to be inferior .
Due to the Skull Blood Curse, Li Fuchen didn’t dare to immediately consume the Thunder Calamity Herb . He was going to wait until the moment the SKull Blood Curse was removed before he consumed it to help in the breakthrough of his body’s endurance limits .
After wandering around for some days, they didn’t even even see the shadow of the Rootless Flower . Shangguan Yu said, “Why don’t we go deeper?”
Before this, they were only venturing the outer region of the Wind Thunder Abyss’ inner abyss .
The inner abyss was roughly divided into four regions: Outer region, middle region, inner region, and the abyss core .
Peak-cla.s.s monarchs were able to venture in the outer region, but if they were in the middle-region, they wouldn’t be able to withstand the wind blades and the thunderbolts . It was absolute death . As for the inner region, even half-emperors would die there .
With the duo’s strength, it was already very strenuous for them in the middle region, but they were still able to endure .
“Alright . ”
Li Fuchen decided that it didn’t matter if they obtained the Rootless Flower or not, they would leave the Wind Thunder Abyss in one more week .
After entering the inner abyss’ middle region, the duo could feel an obvious increase in the power of the wind blades and thunderbolts . Whenever a wind blade or a thunderbolt struck at them, their qi power or sword energy would be reduced at a speed that was several times faster than before .
“The wind blades here seem to be stronger than the thunderbolts?” Li Fuchen used his sword to cleave apart a horrific wind blade and asked .
Shangguan Yu replied, “I reckon that we are rather close to the Wind Cave . ”
<hr>
The Wind Cave was also one of the three dangerous places in the Wind Thunder Abyss, just like the Thunder Heart Lake .
In ancient records, the Thunder Heart Lake was the burial ground of a thunder dao saint, while the Wind Cave was a burial ground of a wind dao saint .
Shangguan Yu was right as they arrived at the Wind Cave half a day later .
The Wind Cave was a gigantic deep cave . Within the cave was an enormous whirlpool of gale . The whirlpool emitted a horrific sound that was like a hurricane . Just hearing it would give off a sensation that the world was going to be destroyed .
It was said that a great emperor once entered the Wind Cave recklessly and never came back out .
Li Fuchen’s spiritual awareness extended towards the Wind Cave, but he quickly paid the price .
The wind within the Wind Cave had a devastating power against spiritual awareness . When his spiritual awareness just entered the Wind Cave, it had been ripped to pieces by the gale and it caused a stinging pain to Li Fuchen’s mind .
“Such terrifying wind dao laws . ” Li Fuchen gasped with surprise .
The wind dao laws within the Wind Cave were the most fearsome wind dao laws he had seen . With the wind dao laws around, the rest of the laws had withdrawn and there was nothing but devastation inside . Even spiritual awareness couldn’t exist inside the cave .
“Someone once found the Rootless Flower in the vicinity of the Wind Cave . Let’s look around . ” Shangguan Yu stated .
“Alright . ”
Li Fuchen’s spiritual awareness consciously avoided the Wind Cave and scanned around the vicinity .
The Wind Cave wasn’t big and was only a few thousand miles in size . If it was a normal situation, they wouldn’t need a lot of time to go around it . However, the Wind Cave was surrounded with violent winds and the duo had to take each step carefully, making it very difficult to move at high speed .
After one day, the duo exhausted half of their qi power and sword energy before finally walking half of the Wind Cave’s exterior .
Swis.h.!.+
All of a sudden, not far away from the Wind Cave, a small shadow flew out .
Li Fuchen scanned with his spiritual awareness and noticed that the shadow was actually a flower . It was a slightly translucent flower with grey stalk .
“Rootless Flower!” Li Fuchen’s eyes lit up .
The Rootless Flower was grey and slightly translucent, just as described in the heaven cla.s.s herb compendium .
“It is indeed the Rootless Flower . ”
