Chapter 1760: Mysterious River
Second, the strange plants growing out of the sea flood dragon’s body had long become one with it. They would wither and lose all of their potency the second they left its body.
Therefore, the only way to use the strange plants was to consume them on the sea flood dragon’s back. Taking them away was impossible.
Of course, such an action would make running away even harder than it already was.
If this was some other place, the trio might have succumbed to their temptation. However, this was Dong Ji, an inexplicably mysterious and dangerous place. If they infuriated the sea flood dragon, then the consequences would be unimaginable. It was simply unnecessary and not worth it to put oneself in grave danger just for some minor profit.
So, they had no choice but to suppress their desires and admire the garden of rare and anomalous plants in peace.
About an hour later, the group finally finished their tour across the sea flood dragon’s back and left. They did not linger.
It was one thing to bear the presence of these priceless plants for a short duration, and another to fight the temptation of stealing them for a long time. That was why they chose to leave as soon as they were done with their tour.
“I sense it!”
After leaving the Sea Dragon Flower behind, the group wandered aimlessly for a bit until suddenly, a strange sensation gripped Ye Qing. It was King Taishan sensing the evil suppressing spiritual treasure.
“Have you found a clue?” Feng Qingyou asked.
“I have. It’s down that direction.”
Ye Qing pointed forward and declared, “It looks like we’ll have to continue east.”
