The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu-Chapter 454: Obtaining the Seed of the Ressurection Flower

On the altar, as the Artifact Fanatic gradually turned to dust and dissipated, only two things remained — the Prison Heaven Staff and a withered Ressurection Flower.

Below the altar, everyone’s eyes lit up as they stared at these two objects, their breathing rapid and heavy.

Finally, someone could no longer hold back and took the first step onto the altar stairs. With the first came the second, and soon the third. Before long, the Gu Kings surged toward the altar like a tide, swarming up the steps on all four sides — east, south, west, and north.

Everyone's expression turned frenzied, eyes filled with greed fixed on the two treasures atop the altar.

Especially the divine weapon Prison Heaven Staff, which drew the most attention.

When Long Xuan sensed that the Ressurection Flower still held a seed imbued with a trace of life force, he couldn’t restrain himself any longer and charged toward the altar.

He intended to plant the Ressurection Flower in his mobile herb garden. Not to mention its heaven-defying ability to bring people back from the dead, even the enhancement it could provide to the Heaven-Devouring World Toad alone was more than enough to make him go all out for it.

What’s more, the Ressurection Flower was one of the Eight Divine Flowers of Heaven and Earth, known to be among the highest-grade spiritual flowers in this world. He looked forward to what kind of transformation would occur in the Bee Queen Bing Bing when it consumed honey made from the flower’s nectar.

If Bing Bing were to evolve because of this, then, under the effect of her Royal Jelly, the entire Ice Bee race would experience a massive breakthrough.

With such temptation, Long Xuan finally decided to join the fight for the Ressurection Flower.

Who cares about these kings? Even if there were over two hundred Gu Kings here — so what? On this altar, all abilities were sealed, and physical strength ruled supreme.

He had refined his body through lava, heavenly fire, and lightning tribulations. His body’s toughness was already inhuman. In this place where all abilities were forbidden, he was simply invincible. How could this group of Gu Kings be a match for him? Even if he took on all 200 of them single-handedly — what of it?

Besides, his face was fake anyway. Even if he offended every Gu King present, what could they do?

Realizing that he was truly invincible in this space, Long Xuan no longer regarded any Gu King as a threat and charged up the altar with full speed.

Thanks to his overwhelming physical prowess, his speed far surpassed that of everyone else. He quickly overtook all other Gu Kings.

Before long, Long Xuan became the first to reach the altar. Without even taking time to inspect the treasures, under the furious gazes of the others, he stored both the Ressurection Flower and the Prison Heaven Staff into his storage ring.

“You brat! How dare you!”

“Boy! Do you have a death wish!?”

“A mere Spiritual Sea-stage Gu cultivator dares to touch such divine items? You must be tired of living!”

Seeing the two divine items taken away by a minor Gu cultivator in the Spiritual Sea-stage, all the Gu Kings’ faces changed, anger flaring in their eyes.

One after another, the Gu Kings rushed up the altar, glaring fiercely as they attacked Long Xuan.

But how could Long Xuan fear these tigers without claws or fangs? With a single punch, an elder flew back, losing a row of teeth, landing heavily on the ground. With one kick, another Gu King was sent flying, rolling down the altar and crashing into countless others.

With both fists swinging, none of the Gu Kings could withstand even one move. Those who got close were either knocked flat or thrown off the altar in humiliation, losing all their so-called might.

This sight enraged the Gu Kings even more.

Two hundred Gu Kings being beaten up by a mere Spiritual Sea-stage youth — how could they show their faces in the Gu World after this?

If word of this got out, their reputation as Gu Kings would be in shambles. Their dignity was at stake, and even knowing how formidable Long Xuan was, Gu Kings from the back continued to charge in with clenched jaws.

“Junior! Don’t get cocky! Let this King teach you a lesson!”

A fat Gu King swung a giant hammer at Long Xuan’s back. But it was as if Long Xuan had eyes on the back of his head — his palm suddenly turned golden, and he spun around, striking the hammer with a mighty punch.

"Boom!"

The clash of fist and hammer was deafening. Everyone nearby felt their eardrums ache.

The fat Gu King’s hands went numb, the hammer flying out of his grasp as he was blasted away, coughing blood midair, crashing down the altar and knocking over a group of others.

Long Xuan swept his right leg, and three more Gu Kings were struck in the head, screaming as they tumbled down the steps in disgrace.

“This… This boy… How can his physical body be so strong? Two hundred Gu Kings being completely overwhelmed by a mere Spiritual Sea-stage youth? This is utterly ridiculous!”

Zhuge Yuan pointed at the altar with a trembling finger, his voice shaking, nearly incoherent.

“A freak! This boy is truly a freak! Just what kind of training did his body undergo? With all powers sealed, he’s defeating Gu Kings like they’re children. Two hundred combined can't handle him — it’s unbelievable!”

Jiu Kang stared at Long Xuan in utter shock, his expression completely losing composure.

“Sigh… Beating two hundred Gu Kings across realms, this kid’s got bragging rights for life. We so-called renowned experts have just become his stepping stones to fame.”

He Jiong wiped the blood from his mouth with a bitter smile.

The group of Gu Kings were suffering bitterly, while Long Xuan was in high spirits — left fist, right kick, sweeping down enemies across realms. It couldn’t feel better.

With his physique, he could rush off the altar and break through the encirclement at any time.

But he didn’t do that.

Instead, he stood there motionless, allowing wave after wave of Gu Kings to charge at him.

He intended to cripple as many Gu Kings as possible. If he left now, they’d regain their powers. Even if their realms weren't too high, it would be troublesome to be chased by so many Gu Kings who could use their abilities.

It was better to seize this chance to seriously injure them. The more wounded they were, the safer he would be after descending the altar.

With that in mind, Long Xuan’s punches became even heavier. Even when a beautiful female Gu King approached, he showed no mercy, slapping her to the ground without hesitation.

Before long, the altar was littered with defeated Gu Kings, lying in all directions, groaning in pain.

“Anyone else?”

Long Xuan stepped on a Gu King and looked around from the top of the altar. Seeing few left standing, he let out a wild laugh, walked down the altar, picked up Zhu Jiuge, and finally ran off into the distance.

Watching the back of this killing star disappear, Zhuge Yuan let out a long sigh and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

This boy gave him tremendous pressure. He was truly afraid that Long Xuan would charge over and give him a farewell punch before leaving.

Now it seemed his worries were unnecessary.

However… if that boy dared to leap off the altar and leave, didn’t that mean he was unafraid of those like him regaining their abilities and chasing after him?

Just how strong was he, exactly?

Even if Gu Kings had their realms suppressed in this secret realm, they should still be able to instantly kill any Spiritual Sea-stage cultivator. But even in such a situation, he completely disregarded them.

Zhuge Yuan’s expression grew increasingly grave.
