That aura was coming from the first floor of the pyramid.
It was an aura that made people feel uncomfortable. When she sensed this aura, Lady Onion felt as if she had been thrown into a puddle of filthy mud.
The aura disappeared as quickly as it came, just like a gust of wind. After a short moment, it was gone already.
Lady Onion furrowed her brows, and asked, “What’s the matter with this aura?” She found this aura very familiar, but she couldn’t recall where she had sensed it before.
That female monster next to Lady Onion also had an uneasy expression on her face.
“I have no idea… it’s my first time sensing this foul aura,” the female monster replied. Although she had lived in the pyramid of this branch for the past few days, she had never sensed this aura.
Lady Onion suddenly thought of something, and said, “Foul and filthy aura…? There is no mistaking, this is the evil energy of the Netherworld Realm!”
Still, why had the evil energy of the Netherworld Realm appeared in the 250th branch?
“The evil energy of the Netherworld Realm?” The nearby female monster furrowed her brows. She was just a young monster, and she had never experienced anything big since the day she was born. As such, she had never come in contact with things related to the Netherworld Realm, and she didn’t recognize the evil energy of the Netherworld Realm, either.
However, the demons of the Netherworld Realm were extremely famous, and their name reverberated like thunder—she was well aware of how scary these demons were.
“I’m sure I’m not mistaken. I partic.i.p.ated in the great battle between the White Cloud Academy and the demons of the Netherworld, and came in contact with the demons of the Netherworld several other times after that. As such, I’m quite sure that this is the evil energy of the Netherworld!” Lady Onion said, very certain of her guess.
After hearing these words, that other female monster was somewhat surprised. She hadn’t expected that this member of their organization had experienced so many major events!
She, too, had heard about the great battle between the White Cloud Academy and the demons of the Netherworld. This matter had ended up on the first page of the ‘Daily Cultivator’, and according to the rumors, all the cultivators that had partic.i.p.ated in this battle between the scholarly faction and the demons of the Netherworld had obtained great benefits.
Some people even obtained the legendary seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus, which could prolong one’s life by 50 years. After eating these seeds, not only would one’s lifespan increase, but they would also obtain an ‘extraordinary skill’.
A treasure that could prolong one’s life… how good would it be if she could obtain one!
That way, she would be able to increase the lifespan of her friend Little Cai by 50 years.
With an extra 50 years at her disposal, Little Cai would surely be able to break through. If she broke through to the next great realm, she wouldn’t have to worry about her lifespan reaching the limit for a while.
Thereupon, the female monster couldn’t resist asking, “Lady Onion, since you’ve partic.i.p.ated in the great battle between the White Cloud Academy and the Netherworld Realm, did you get a glimpse of the seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus? Is it true that those seeds can increase one’s lifespan and bestow an extraordinary skill on whomever eats them?”
“Yes, that’s correct,” Lady Onion said with a nod. “After I ate one, not only did my lifespan greatly increase, but I also obtained the [Three Heads and Six Arms] extraordinary skill.”
After mentioning the [Three Heads and Six Arms] skill, Lady Onion felt a little sad. That extraordinary skill was very cool, but once the skill was deactivated, the extra arms and heads wouldn’t disappear, but would fall to the ground, which was extremely scary.
However, it was still much better than Song Shuhang’s fake [Three Heads and Six Arms] skill. The skill in Song Shuhang’s possession was something he could use only in conjunction with Ye Si and his condensed light of virtue.
“Lady Onion, you actually got your hands on the seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus? In that case, do you happen to have an extra one?” the female monster asked expectantly.
If Lady Onion had an extra lotus seed at her disposal, she was willing to sell everything she had in order to obtain it. After all, Little Cai was her best friend.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t have an extra lotus seed. I’ve only obtained one,” Lady Onion said, somewhat embarra.s.sed. She had also thought about the monster bird Little Cai.
From the looks of it, Little Cai didn’t have much left to live… and if she could eat one of those lotus seeds, she would be able to live for another 50 years.
“It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to apologize,” the female monster said, somewhat disappointed.
This outcome was to be expected. The seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus were extremely valuable—among the cultivators that partic.i.p.ated in the great battle between the scholarly faction and the Netherworld Realm, only one out of ten was able to obtain one. Therefore, one could already consider themselves lucky if they obtained one lotus seed. It was very rare for someone to get more than one.
But even if she already knew the answer, the female monster still harbored some hope in her heart, a hope that Lady Onion would have an extra seed of the Virtuous Golden Lotus.
After seeing the disappointed expression of the female monster, Lady Onion thought for a moment and clenched her teeth, saying, “If you really want the seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus… there might be a way.”
After hearing these words, the female monster simply ‘revived’. Then, she asked happily, “Is there really a way? Lady Onion, please tell me. Even if I have to give away everything I have, I’m more than willing.”
“Do you remember that human cultivator called Song Shuhang that came to look for me?” Lady Onion said. “It’s very likely that he has some extra seeds of the Virtuous Golden Lotus with him.”
“Really?” the female monster said happily.
“Yes,” Lady Onion said with a nod. Soon after, she added, “You can look for him. There is a chance he might sell you one.”
“In that case, I’ll immediately look for him.” The female monster sprang to her feet. But then, she thought that it wasn’t too okay to leave Lady Onion behind just like that. “Lady Onion, what about you?”
“Don’t mind me. I’ll stay here and keep watching the TV. You can look for him by yourself, alright? Be careful and don’t leak out anything related to this branch,” Lady Onion said.
“Don’t worry. In that case, I’ll go look for him,” the female monster replied.
After saying this much, she quickly set out and pushed the door of the room open.
But just as she pushed the door open… another burst of aura was transmitted over.
Just like the aura they’d sensed before, this aura was foul and evil, and it also carried a type of bone-piercing cold within.
The body of that female monster trembled. “What’s happening? It’s that aura again.”
