Chapter 778: Adventuring
It had been so long since Sage had been out adventuring. Hed always been concerned about running for his life or trying to re-establish the Lang Clan that he hadnt had much time to sate the wanderlust that hed developed in his earlier years. That time he had been at the Holy Flame Sect was when hed finally felt safe and secure enough to go on adventures, but that had unfortunately turned into another flight.
It was in those times that hed run into a very rare and beautiful sight. A Demonic Plant. Hed run away with fright that time and returned later when hed grown stronger. Hed stumbled upon the plant attempting to reproduce and tried to steal away the young plant, but unfortunately neither of them were successful. Hed failed at stealing a living seed, but the Demonic Plants real seed turned out to be a dud.
At this time, Sage had returned to that same site once again. He was looking down upon an ancient solarium-like building from above and it was utterly surrounded by thick green vines that all seemed to be of the same type. There was a noticeable difference in color and health for the vines that were inside the solarium and those that were outside of it. Those that spilled out into the outside looked to be in far worse shape, like they were deprived of something. Sage slowly descended next to the edge of the area that the vines covered and put the Red Comet away. Then he walked up to the vines and let them get a feel for his aura. While he never bothered to learn any aura enhancing techniques, the Life Nebula cultivation technique that he gained from the Seed of Life always exuded a sort of crushing presence. He usually used a few tricks he gained from his mastery of the Cerulean Cloud, the Twin Ringed Serpents innate method to hide from Spirit Sense, in order to hide such an obvious aura, but at this time he let it free.
Upon sensing his presence, the vines didnt move, but he could sense a slight twitch in the distance. They maintained their disguise as just another vine, even though Sage knew that these grounds were probably stained deep with blood. In fact, he was pretty sure that the vines actually extended at least four or times further than they seemed to. As soon as he made to leave, they would likely spring out of the ground to try and trap him. He knew they were merely waiting for the better ambush opportunity that would arise once he was wading into the large bushes in front of him, but he didnt care. These vines outside were only the clone-like minions of the real plant.
This was a site marked upon some ancient map I found at the Soul Taming Abode all those years ago, wasnt it? Curious. Wasnt there a few more places on that map I was too fearful to check out at the time?
Sage saved that thought for later and walked towards the center of the solarium and then turned towards the south, moving to where hed last seen the central stalk of the Demonic Plant. Certainly, after so many years it could have moved, but Demonic Plants could be even longer lived than Demonic Beasts and he didnt expect it to have changed much since then. The vines and bushes drew back to reveal an extraordinarily large chrysanthemum blossom. Its huge snowy white petals were somewhat tube-like and made him think of a far more artfully arranged sea anemone. That giant flower tilted towards him, which he took to be either a gesture of greeting or perhaps a show of its patience.
Unknowing of how intelligent this being was, he decided to show it respect. Sage gave the flower a bow and then saluted it. Then, he brought out some exceptionally powerful fertilizer from the Inner World. It moved directly from the Inner World to the ground in front of him, saving him from having to touch it with his hands. Then he stepped back and held out his hand to signal his gift.
Thank you for meeting with me. This is a small token of my appreciation.
