The Medallion

Chapter 1794 A New Breakthrough

"Madam, may I know where we are now?" While Rocky was still confused as to what really happened, he turned towards the old woman and asked her.

"To be blunt, this is the place where many Godly Geniuses wanted to come," the old woman replied as if she was now a completely different person.

"Wait. Did you just say Godly Geniuses? So, you are aware that I am a Godly Genius? You know about us?" Rocky could not believe the sudden revelation.

"Anyway, proceed further and you will be able to find the Divine Nether Flower. It is formed from the power of a deity, who was one of the four most powerful deities that ever existed in the Holy-Evil World. If you absorb the flower's energy, then you can successfully cultivate your deity form, and one day you shall also become one. However, be warned that the Divine Nether Flower is also known as the flower of death. Once you decided to absorb its energy, you will inevitably experience various hardships both in your world and in the nether world. Of course, as long as you are able to endure all the trials waiting for you, you will be reborn. Therefore, I suggest that you think carefully before you take any action." The old woman ignored Rocky's question and went straight to the more important matter.

Hearing this, Rocky immediately looked ahead and focused into the depths of the cave. Then, before he made a move, he asked again, "But why did you take me here?"

"I believe that everything is predestined. Even though I brought you here, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can obtain the flower. So, best of luck to you. Now, go!" Right after saying that, the old woman suddenly turned into a hazy shadow that instantly disappeared from Rocky's sight.

Then, as soon as the old woman left, Rocky wasted no time and went straight towards the depths of the cave.

"These flowers and plants have been nurtured for at least a hundred years. All of them must be extremely precious!" Rocky looked intently at his surroundings while going deeper into the cave and was surprised at what he saw.

However, right now, the most important thing was the Divine Nether Flower that the old woman mentioned. Hence, Rocky regained his composure and focused on finding the flower.

Not long after, Rocky was able to go deep down into the cave. There, he saw a strange flower with a faint purple light glowing from it. It was floating in an unfathomable abyss while continuously absorbing the essence released by the plants inside the cave.

Needless to say, it was indeed a legendary flower that any Godly Genius would surely covet.

Just now, the old lady made it clear that if he could absorb the power of the Divine Nether Flower, he would be able to cultivate and form his deity body. Once he already possessed a deity body, he could eventually become a genuine deity as long as he cultivated his Imperial Soul to a much higher level.

Therefore, he had every reason to be motivated into acquiring the power of the flower.

Of course, Rocky carefully observed his surroundings first. Since he was in his spiritual soul form right now, he could not unleash any of his spiritual skills. As a result, he had to be cautious in order to safely obtain the Divine Nether Flower floating above the abyss.

He clearly knew that he only had one shot at this extremely rare opportunity. If he somehow fell into the black abyss, even if he was lucky enough to survive, there was no way that he could return to this place again. Hence, this was such a very nerve-wracking task.

However, Rocky had already experienced this kind of pressure before. First, he tried to remain as calm as possible, and he did not attempt to rush things over. Instead, he analyzed every inch of the surroundings and came up with the best approach. There were at least dozens of meters between his

current position and the spot where the Divine Nether Flower was situated. Unless he could directly fly over to get it, he might not be able to jump that far even if he used all his strength.

After working on several possible methods for quite some time, Rocky was still unable to come up with a feasible strategy. It was as if the situation was totally hopeless. "It seems that there is no other possible option but to jump over and snatch it. However, I have only one chance to do it. If I failed, it's over and all my efforts will be in vain!" Obviously, it was such a difficult decision to make. The stakes were just too huge.

But after thinking for some more, he suddenly thought of something. It was indeed true that he was in his spiritual soul form and couldn't use his own spiritual power. However, his form was condensed by the power of his Imperial Soul, and his Imperial Soul could absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

Right now, he was surrounded by countless peculiar yet precious flowers and herbs growing inside the cave. Thus, he surmised that if he could absorb the spiritual power of these herbs and flowers, his Imperial Soul might be able to utilize this strong power even for a short time.

After deciding to give this tactic a shot, Rocky immediately sat on the ground with his legs crossed and began absorbing as much power from the herbs around him using the power of his Imperial Soul. As he expected, the moment he started the process, he felt streams of spiritual power surging towards him from all directions. Although individually, they were not that impressive, it would still be enough when he gathered all of them.

After a long time, when Rocky sensed that the power he absorbed was already sufficient to enable him to jump a thousand miles, he got up, opened his eyes, and released all the power at once while leaping towards the Divine Nether Flower.

At this instant, his entire body seemed like a forceful arrow that bolted out directly towards the target— the Divine Nether Flower.

However, just as Rocky was about to reach the flower, the latter seemed to have sensed an incoming threat. All of a sudden, it released an astonishing force that instantly attacked Rocky.

Caught off guard, Rocky received the full impact of the flower's attack, sweeping Rocky's soul towards the abyss below.

But at the most crucial moment, Rocky managed to flip his body in midair, making him stand upside down. Then, he kicked at the Divine Nether Flower with all his might, immediately disrupting the flower's stable buoyancy. The next moment, the flower also began to fall into the abyss.

Seeing that his stunt worked, Rocky immediately adjusted his body while still in midair. Then, he swiftly took the chance to grab the falling flower in front of him.

The moment Rocky touched the flower, his figure was devoured by the black abyss.

At the same time, the old woman from before suddenly reappeared on the space above the abyss. Immediately after, her figure transformed, finally revealing her true identity.

It turned out that the old woman was none other than Mikayla.

"Well, this guy never fails to impress me! He really did catch the Divine Nether Flower in time. Now, he is one step closer to becoming a deity. Whether he can make it eventually or not depends on his luck. If he wants the power of the flower that badly, he will have to pay a huge price and go through a painful cycle of life and death..." Mikayla murmured to herself and let out a faint smile.

The next moment, she vanished again.

A while later, Rocky finally woke up. As he opened his eyes, he found that he was actually back in front of the huge stone tablet. It seemed that all of the things he experienced just now were like a dream. However, he eventually noticed that he was holding a purple flower in his hand.

"This is the Divine Nether Flower... It's not a dream!" Rocky could not contain his excitement as he looked at the flower in his hand.

"Well, it is quiet here and I think no one would disturb me. Maybe I can use this chance to absorb the power of the flower and refine my body right here," Rocky uttered after he looked at his surroundings.

After making up his mind, he gathered the power in his body, released his holy power, and tried to absorb the power of the Divine Nether Flower.

However, not long after he started the process, an unexpected thing happened. Upon taking a deep breath, he felt a torrent of cold power gushing into his body like a raging stream. The cold power began to madly rush and invade his meridians. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Soon enough, all of his meridians were filled with the frosty power of the Divine Nether Flower. However, this was just the beginning of everything.

It seemed that it was impossible to completely absorb the power of the Divine Nether Flower with just Rocky's own strength. The only problem was that once the power of the flower was already released, it could not return back to the source. Therefore, he had to try his best to absorb all the intense power from the flower. Otherwise, it would just be wasted.

Of course, not only Rocky was capable of absorbing the flower's power. His Imperial Soul could also do the task and help him share the burden. However, there was a huge risk if he tried to do this. After all, his Imperial Soul had not been fully formed yet. Thus, if it had somehow absorbed too much power beyond its threshold, it could cause an overwhelming impact that would not be good for either of them.
