Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 1003 - 155: King-level Demon Plant Revealed!

Chapter 1003: Chapter 155: King-level Demon Plant Revealed!

To avoid alarming the King of Penglai, the Second Summoner did not bring too many people before setting out.

The magic beast of the Seventh Summoner was killed, which was tantamount to rendering it half-useless.

The Second Summoner facing off against two Martial Emperors alone evidently stood no chance.

The Second Summoner was much more cunning than the Seventh; knowing he couldn’t confront force with force, he immediately put on a smile.

"Your Majesty Dugu, I don’t mean that. It’s just that the Regent King took something that the Summon Emperor put a lot of effort into finding. If it’s lost, the Summon Emperor will not let it go. Perhaps the Regent King can hand it over, and the Seventh Summoner and I will pretend nothing happened," the Second Summoner said persuasively.

"How could he! That guy killed my Holy Beast!" The Seventh Summoner initially hoped the Second Summoner would stand up for him, but little did he expect, the other dismissed it lightly with a ’nothing happened.’

"Shut up, don’t you think you’ve caused enough trouble?" the Second Summoner said with an exasperated tone.

"The Summon Emperor’s things?" Dugu Xiu mused, glancing at Yun Sheng by his side.

"What’s with the Summon Emperor? My Great Zhou is prosperous and powerful, I am the Regent King of Great Zhou, do I look like the kind of person who would snatch things?" Yun Sheng maintained her composure, not blushing or showing any embarrassment.

Listen to that tone, that expression, as if the matter of the small black box had nothing to do with her.

Beside her, Lady Chi Bi inwardly sneered, calling her bluff; it had to be her who took it.

Dugu Xiu coughed softly, knowing Yun Sheng well enough to know she was indeed the type to take others’ things.

Dugu Xiu, having faced her multiple times, couldn’t quite grasp Yun Sheng’s true power, but her cunning was undeniable.

From just her tone, Dugu Xiu could conclude that Yun Sheng had taken the Summoning Court’s item.

So be it, if she took it, she took it. What of the Red Robe Summoning Emperor?

If she wanted it, then she wanted it.

Dugu Xiu looked away, also showing indifference, "You two heard clearly, right?"

The Second and Seventh Summoners were even angrier upon hearing this. "Regent King, you’re robbing us!"

"No need to speak so harshly; well, it’s just a Black Box, I disdain wanting it," Yun Sheng said, actually pulling a small black box from her bosom and raising it in her hand.

Dugu Xiu and Madam Bi looked and saw that the black box was quite ordinary.

The Second Summoner made a move to grab it, but was stopped by the Seventh Summoner: "Second Summoner, it’s better to be cautious, this person is very cunning, I’ve been tricked by him before."

The Seventh Summoner was also on edge, glancing around and ensuring there was no trace of Abyssal Tentacle Sunflowers nearby. He was still unyielding, having clearly seen earlier that after the Regent King of Great Zhou threw out the box, all the Abyssal Tentacle Sunflowers were immobile, as if someone had tampered with the box.

"Take it or leave it. Since you dare not take it, I don’t want to invite trouble; this box might as well be thrown away," Yun Sheng sneered, casually tossing the small black box overboard.

The small black box turned into a black speck, casting it onto the vast sea.

Such a tiny thing, once in the ocean, would be hard to retrieve.

The Second Summoner didn’t dare hesitate, his figure flickered, about to snatch the black box.

"You!" Dugu Xiu was surprised.

Given Yun Sheng’s character, how could she so easily hand over something she obtained?

Just as the Second Summoner’s fingers were about to touch the black box, a smile appeared on his face.

But just then, the black box suddenly exploded.

Something rolled out from inside.

Everyone present, being top experts on the continent, saw clearly with one glance what was inside.

The object that the Summoning Court and the Regent King of Great Zhou were vying for was a bronze key.

Yun Sheng, the Golden Qilin, and Dugu Xiu all recognized the key simultaneously.

The Netherworld Ghost Key!

The three of them had glimpsed one of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts in the five hundred-year-old Taoyuan Ruins, capable of summoning the Netherworld Ghost King—the Netherworld Ghost Key.

A legend about the Netherworld Ghost Key, one of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, states that every owner of the Netherworld Ghost Key, once they use it to summon the Netherworld Ghost King, the Netherworld Ghost Key will disappear.

No one knows where it goes.

Until the next time the Netherworld Ghost Key appears before the world, waiting for someone able to summon the Netherworld Ghost King again.

Like its name, the Netherworld Ghost Key comes and goes without a trace.

Nobody expected that what the Red Robe Summoning Emperor sought was actually the Netherworld Ghost Key.

As the Netherworld Ghost Key fell, it emitted a strange glow.

The Second Summoner finally managed to snatch the Netherworld Ghost Key; once in hand, the Second Summoner’s expression relaxed slightly.

He even forgot he was about to fall into the water.

Yun Sheng’s pupils contracted, and she softly said, "It’s coming!"

"Caw—"

The previously calm sea surface began to bubble.

An ear-piercing shriek left the Second Summoner’s mind in a blank daze; his body uncontrollably lunged towards the sea.

Something emerged from the sea floor,

Once the Second Summoner realized something was wrong, he struggled, waving his magic wand, using Wind Magic to barely stabilize his posture.

When he saw what emerged from the water, the Second Summoner’s eyes filled with horror. He wanted to escape, but it was too late.

Like a volcanic eruption, water arrows shot from below the sea to the surface, creating waves dozens of meters high.

A massive shadow, like a mountain, emerged from the deep sea.

It was a terrifying Demon Plant, resembling an octopus with countless tentacles but not quite an octopus.

Abyssal Tentacle Anemone!

On its body, it bore hundreds or even thousands of tentacles. Most astonishingly, as the Abyssal Tentacle Anemone emitted a duck-like unpleasant sound, small tentacle sunflowers appeared on the water’s surface.

The sea surface quickly became crowded with tentacle sunflowers of various sizes, densely packed, inducing a spine-chilling fear.

It was a Tentacle Sunflower King with summoning capabilities.

"Caw—"

Another series of piercing cries.

Just like soldiers responding to the General’s orders, the tentacles of large and small Abyssal Tentacle Anemones launched together like countless javelins, directly stabbing towards the Second Summoner.

The Second Summoner still wanted to resist, but he found himself unable to move.

"Puff puff puff"

The Second Summoner’s body was immediately riddled with dozens of holes.

Even in death, his eyes were wide open, still gripping the Netherworld Ghost Key firmly.

The Second Summoner was sucked dry into a shriveled husk, and the Netherworld Ghost Key fell down.

The tentacles of the Abyssal Tentacle Anemone loosened, reaching for the key.

It was clear that the sea anemone’s appearance was precisely for this Netherworld Ghost Key.

But at that moment, a pink shadow suddenly charged into the Abyssal Tentacle Anemone, tightly grabbing the key. With a flutter of its fleshy wings, it shot up like a whirlwind into the sky.

The crowd fixed their eyes and saw that the one who seized the Netherworld Ghost Key was a pink fluffball-like magic beast.
