Chapter 15 - Burying Flowers with the Sword (1/2)

Down the valley was a vast territory.

All kinds of flowers were in full bloom, stretching as far as the eyes could reach. It was called Flower Valley. With one glance, Lin Yun thought there might be over a hundred kinds of exotic flowers and plants.

The Blood Lily!

Where could it be?

Lin Yun slightly frowned. If he had to walk through the valley, it might take him at least half a month.

No wonder few disciples would like to take over tasks about spiritual stones. It was really hard.

Once the task failed, it was nothing of the loss. The point was if time was wasted, he would miss the mid-year assessment.

The once-a-year mid-term assessment of Qingyun Sect would decide the ranks of all disciples. And their ranks would directly be related to the wages. And the top ten outer disciples would be promoted as the inner disciples.

“I should look around and get familiar with the environment here first.”

Without much thinking, Lin Yun entered into the flowers.

A whole day soon passed, but Lin Yun hadn’t got a clue.

But he was very patient. After it was dawn, he set out again, trying to keep everything in Flower Valley in his mind.

Seven a little bit boring days passed.

For an ordinary person, one would have already been perplexed by those flowers, and the patience would have been worn out. But Lin Yun didn’t give up.

“This is…”

One day while Lin Yun was wandering deep in the flowers, he sniffed something and stopped.

Among the fragrance of the flowers, he nosed a light bloody smell, very light. But having been familiarized with the Flower Valley for a couple of days, Lin Yun immediately sensed it.

All of a sudden, Lin Yun’s eyes shined!

He walked carefully along the light bloody smell. But the breeze never stopped in the valley, and also it was also mixed with the fragrance of all kinds of flowers.

It was really not an easy thing.

For a few times he lost the bloody smell and was even guided to the wrong direction.

Finally having got a clue, how would Lin Yun give up so easily?

All of sudden, Lin Yun who was looking for the Bloody Lily shivered.

A stream of coldness spread from the ground, making him shaking.

With a glance, Lin Yun saw a giant rock deep in the flowers.

“It is here!!”

The light bloody smell should be sent out from here.

With a jump, Lin Yun came to the back of the rock, and then saw a red lily blooming in the shadow.

The spooky Blood Lilly was sending out a smell mixed with fragrance and blood.

“That’s it. Bloody Lily prefers shady and cool places, and blossoms in places with no light. And there’s kind of bloody smell mixed with its fragrance. It’s the main ingredient of the Blood Activating Elixirs, which was valuable and rare.

Lin Yun stepped forward carefully after making sure it was safe.

With a kind of joy on the face, he bent over to pick it.

Lin Yun didn’t notice that the moment he bent over, the shadow hanging over the Blood Lily was stretching on and on.

And when his hand nearly touched the Blood Lily, he suddenly felt kind of unprecedented danger.

The moment he raised his head, he saw a serpent with its mouth widely open trying to attack like the lightening.

Lin Yun immediately turned pale.

Without thinking more, he turned over on the ground and avoided its attack.

Bang!

But his body got hit by its tail. He felt as if all his bones falling apart. With a grunt, he was thrown in the air.

After landing on the ground, Lin Yun saw clearly what the serpent looked like.

On its grey back, there was a long blood line, like the burning flame.

It was a Bloody Flame Snake, a real evil beast, with the fifth level of Martial Practice.

Now Lin Yun understood that the giant rock before the Blood Lily was this snake in disguise.

That was close, really close, he almost got swallowed.

Fizz!

The Bloody Flame Snake fizzed, with the evil spirit being released from its body. Lin Yun could clearly feel the pressure, no less than when facing Zhou Yun.

The shadow of a sacred tiger was forming gradually in his head, overwhelming the evil spirit little by little.

Invisibly, it was neutralized.

After pulling out the old sword, the fear in Lin Yun’s heart faded away. He couldn’t get the Blood Lilly only if he killed that Bloody Flame Snake.

So he had no way back.

Gathering Water to Form Streams, Flowing Streams like Winds!

Lin Yun launched the attack first. He was using his Flowing Wind Swordplay smoothly.

The moment their shadows crossed, the sword light chopped on the snake’s body.

To Lin’s surprise, with thick scales, his Flowing Wind Swordplay couldn’t hurt the Bloody Flame Snake at all.
