2212 Subdued Flora

Liu Ping was stunned.

He looked at the flower in a daze and could not snap out of his stupor. For a moment, he thought that he was hallucinating.

However, before long, the vegetation and vines that coiled around him retreated rapidly and returned to normal.

The surroundings became peaceful once more.

All of a sudden, the frenzied plants from earlier on were no longer aggressive.

“Senior Brother Liu, are you alright?”

Right then, a voice sounded behind him. Immediately after, someone helped him up.

Liu Ping turned back.

“Junior Brother Su?”

It was his fellow sect mate from the academy, Su Zimo!

“Junior Brother Su, you’ve ascended to Level 4 as well?”

Liu Ping was slightly surprised. “Although your cultivation realm is slightly inferior, you’re not much slower than me in terms of speed. I’ve truly underestimated you.”

Su Zimo smiled without saying anything.

As though he suddenly thought of something, Liu Ping said hurriedly, “Junior Brother Su, watch out. The surrounding vegetation is extremely aggressive. My arm was snapped by that flower!”

Liu Ping pointed to his broken arm that had yet to recover and looked at the beautiful flower not far away, saying with lingering fear.

Su Zimo nodded.

When Liu Ping saw Su Zimo’s nonchalant and indifferent expression, he explained, “Junior Brother Su, don’t be blinded by the appearance of that flower!”

“That flower looks normal right now. However, it truly transformed into a gigantic mouth earlier on with sharp fangs that were even more terrifying than any ferocious beast!”

As Liu Ping said that, he channeled his Essence Spirit and his severed arm regrew slowly.

“You are right, Senior Brother Liu. We should proceed with caution,”

Su Zimo agreed.

Liu Ping said deeply, “Since the two of us can meet here, it’s a rare opportunity. We can join forces and attempt to clear Level 4.”

“Alright.”

Su Zimo did not explain further.

In any case, he was going to advance himself and it was fine even if he brought someone with him.

“Junior Brother Su, your cultivation realm is lower. You can cover the back while I take the lead to pave the way,”

Liu Ping said in a deep voice, “If I can’t hold on, you can hold out for a while at the front.”

“Sure.”

Su Zimo did not decline either. “Senior Brother Liu, let’s hurry and catch up to the others.”

Liu Ping took a deep breath of air and released his spirit consciousness, heading forward warily.

Su Zimo followed behind.

Strangely enough, after the two of them walked for a while, the surrounding vegetation did not move or attack them at all!

It was as though everything that Liu Ping experienced earlier on was his imagination.

“Junior Brother Su, did anything happen behind you?”

Liu Ping asked as he surveyed his surroundings.

“Everything is normal.”

Su Zimo held the badge in his hands and looked at their rankings continuously.

Although the two of them did not encounter any obstacles along the way, Liu Ping was already like a startled bird and did not advance at a fast speed.

Although their rankings were rising continuously, their speed was also slow.

Su Zimo gradually revealed a hint of impatience.

“Junior Brother Su, you must buck up and not be distracted!”

When Liu Ping heard Su Zimo’s distracted tone, he reminded again, “Although everything around us seems normal, danger can appear at any moment!”

“The calmer it is, the more likely it is that there is an unimaginable storm!”

Su Zimo could not help but say, “Senior Brother Liu, let me take the lead. Come and cover the back so that you can take a break as well.”

Liu Ping pondered for a moment and said, “Alright, you’ll take the lead for a while. If we encounter any danger, we’ll change positions immediately!”

“Senior Brother Liu, just follow me,”

Su Zimo said and arrived before Liu Ping in a flash, striding forward.

“Hey, hey!”

Liu Ping was shocked and shouted hurriedly, “Junior Brother Su, you’re running too fast! Be careful!”

“Watch out for that flower!”

“Watch out for that vine!”

Su Zimo turned a deaf ear and continued sprinting forward.

Liu Ping was scared out of his wits and wanted to abandon Su Zimo. However, he felt uneasy and could only chase after Su Zimo while shouting from behind.

Su Zimo’s speed increased.

In the end, Liu Ping could only use his full strength to barely keep up with Su Zimo’s speed and no longer had the strength to shout.

The strange thing was that the two of them did not encounter any attacks along the way and the surrounding vegetation became incomparably quiet.

In fact, Liu Ping witnessed a rather strange scene.

Initially, a dense patch of grass blocked in front of Su Zimo.

Su Zimo had no intention of dodging and charged over.

The dense grass actually dodged to both sides, opening up a path for Su Zimo to advance smoothly.

“Strange.”

Liu Ping looked at Su Zimo’s back view and frowned slightly.

What excited him was that their rankings were rising rapidly.

400…

300…

200!

This also meant that the other cultivators did not have it as smoothly as the two of them in Level 4.

…

In the square.

Many cultivators looked at the green-robed cultivator in the Nine Heavens with agape mouths.

Through the observation of the first three levels, everyone had some understanding of Su Zimo’s methods and were psychologically prepared.

However, no one expected Level 4 to be so simple for Su Zimo!

Level 4 was the flora world.

All the plants in this space were sentient.

A portion of the plants did not have any offensive capabilities and could merely entangle and restrain cultivators, harassing them continuously and delaying them.

Of course, there were also many plants within that possessed extremely terrifying offensive and lethality!

The flower that Liu Ping encountered was only one of the most ordinary ones.

Along the way, the two of them passed by countless terrifying offensive plants. However, none of them attacked the two of them!

In other places in this space, the same vegetation had already killed many cultivators!

However, for some reason, the plants suddenly became quiet and obedient in front of Su Zimo.

It was clear for the bystanders.

Everyone could tell that this was definitely not Liu Ping’s ability.

When he first entered Level 4, Liu Ping was almost devoured by a flower.

The reason why the flower suddenly retreated was because of Su Zimo’s appearance!

“Su Zimo sure is something.”

“This person passed through Level 1 with a flame immortal art and Level 2 with Heavenly Perfected Water. Even at Level 3, he released many movement techniques and secret skills. Although it was spectacular, he did not have it easy. However, at Level 4…”

Everyone could clearly see that Su Zimo did not release any divine powers or secret skills in Level 4 and continued forward smoothly!

“I reckon that this person must have cultivated some cultivation technique or secret skill related to flora and obtained the recognition of this flora world. That’s why they did not attack him.”

Some people speculated.

However, Perfected Immortal Xie Ling frowned in confusion.

In his opinion, it did not seem as though Su Zimo had gained the recognition of the plants. Instead, it was as though the plants revered him!
