Chapter 1041: Chapter 1058: Immortal Orchid
At this moment, both Huang Chen and Elder Yu were extremely displeased with Ye Feng. They hadn’t expected that such an obscure "nobody" like Ye Feng could continually embarrass them, and they harbored a deep-seated resentment toward him in their hearts.
Thinking of this, both Huang Chen and Elder Yu felt deeply humiliated and resolved to come up with a way to regain their dignity.
Soon, it was eleven o’clock at night, and the miasma and fog in the jungle had become increasingly dense, making it almost impossible to see the path ahead. Even someone as powerful as Ye Feng, at the mid-stage of the Divine Realm, could only see dozens of meters away.
Ye Feng suggested, "Let’s stop here for today and get a good night’s rest. We’ll set off again tomorrow morning after the miasma and fog have dissipated."
Everyone nodded in agreement with Ye Feng’s suggestion and took out their sleeping bags, preparing to rest.
The night passed without any incidents, and in the blink of an eye, it was morning. The fog and miasma had quickly dissipated.
By the time it was morning, the fog and miasma had mostly vanished, and everyone continued on their journey.
By two in the afternoon, they saw an enormous pit ahead in the jungle.
The pit was several hundred meters in diameter with no trees growing around it. Upon seeing the pit, Wu Kexin and the others became excited, exclaiming, "We’ve arrived! In that pit lies the mysterious flower!
I remember last time we were here, the pit was filled with many, but most weren’t mature; only a few were. Back then, there was no miasma, and the vines weren’t so thick!"
Everyone quickened their pace towards the pit, and Wu Kexin rushed to the front of the group alone. Even Ye Feng was curious, his eyes showing interest as he wanted to see the magical flower Wu Kexin had mentioned.
Ye Feng felt that the pit was the place on the entire Dongxuan Island where spiritual energy converged, so whatever it nurtured couldn’t be ordinary.
Huang Chen and the others also quickened their pace, following Wu Kexin, while Elder Yu looked equally excited because he could clearly sense the extremely dense spiritual energy emanating from the pit.
In no time, the group emerged from the woods, and suddenly, an intoxicating fragrance with a hint of sweetness filled the air, seemingly refreshing anyone who took a whiff, leaving them fascinated.
At this moment, Wu Kexin reached the edge of the pit and instantly froze, her body becoming incredibly rigid.
Fear flashed in Wu Kexin’s eyes, her expression completely frozen. Droplets of cold sweat continually dripped from her forehead, soaking her back with sweat.
It was as if she had seen something utterly terrifying, and everyone else looked puzzled, not knowing what Wu Kexin had seen. They hastened their steps to the edge of the pit, but when they arrived, they were equally stunned by what they saw inside the pit.
Soon after, Ye Feng also reached the edge of the pit. After taking in everything in the pit, Ye Feng remained the only person among those present who stayed calm.
Inside the giant pit, seven massive pythons were entwined together.
Every inch of the pit was covered with a type of blue flower resembling butterflies.
"Immortal Orchid!" Ye Feng instantly recognized it. The Immortal Orchid is a relatively rare herb.
The Immortal Orchid cannot be used to refine pill for boosting cultivation, nor can it be used to make restorative types of pills.
However, it is the main ingredient for the Anti-Aging Elixir. Even the most basic Anti-Aging Elixir can rejuvenate a woman’s appearance by seven to eight years, or even ten, and it is said that the ultimate elixir can grant eternal youth.
The Anti-Aging Elixir is extremely rare, even in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm where Ye Feng once ventured, which is teeming with Divine Realm experts. It was unexpected to find so many Immortal Orchids here.
However, what made the situation dangerous were the seven gigantic pythons inside the pit.
The seven giant pythons were intertwined, each a hundred meters long, capable of swallowing a person whole with ease.
Their thick bodies and hard scales exuded a cold ferocity.
This scene reminded Ye Feng of a movie he had watched as a child, "Anaconda," which featured giant pythons entwined in a pit, just like the current situation.
Except the pythons in this pit were far more terrifying, far surpassing the ones in the movie.
The pythons radiated a dreadful demon aura, evidently having transformed into demonic creatures.
Ye Feng could easily sense their power; even a typical early-stage Legendary expert wouldn’t stand a chance against a single python. The seven pythons seemed to be waiting for the Immortal Orchids to fully mature and devour them all.
The dreadful demon aura poured over everyone present like a formless flood.
Even Elder Yu broke out in a cold sweat, and despite being a Half-step Legend, he lost all confidence at the sight of the seven gigantic, rough demons pythons, his legs trembling uncontrollably.
However, at this moment, the seven demon pythons were intoxicated by the scent of the Immortal Or
chids, entirely oblivious to Ye Feng and the others. Elder Yu promptly reacted, whispering, "Quick, leave! We’ve given up! These monsters are not something we can handle. Let’s leave before they notice us, or it’ll be too late!"
Everyone nodded, driven back likely due to Wu Kexin and Li Xue’er being women and having an inherent strong fear of snakes.
As everyone was preparing to leave, Ye Feng stood motionless at the edge of the pit.
Ye Feng seemed to see something in the pit, and he sensed that his Execution Ring was subtly vibrating, as if signaling to him about something in the pit.
Ye Feng understood that the mere presence of Immortal Orchids couldn’t possibly cause the Execution God Ring to vibrate.
Ye Feng harbored a suspicion that there must be a significant secret here, given the proliferation of Immortal Orchids and the emergence of seven pythons equaling legends.
