Chapter 841 362: Walking on the Life and Death Boundary (2)
Lightly wielding their Flower Wand.
Vines quickly spread under everyone's feet, followed by the growth of three flowers. The giant flowers enveloped all members of the three teams completely.
The flowers that completely wrapped the trio regrouped and then shrank back into the water, descending to the layer beneath the vines.
In the seawater beneath the vine layer, the vines connected and moved swiftly forward.
Alka and Chadite leaned against the petals.
As the Silent Saintess sat silently nearby, the two of them didn't intend to chat with her, so they glanced at Jilenna beside them.
"What is this thing? It should be able to directly take us to the boundary of the Life and Death Boundary, right?"
Upon hearing Alka's question, Jilenna nodded: "Only the Gardener can accomplish this, it's a blessing from the Flower Fairy. It allows for swift movement through the spirit realm with the help of plants."
After listening to his explanation, the two nodded.
"How long will it take roughly?"
If traveling from the fortress to the edge of the Life and Death Boundary by normal distance, it would take about 2 to 3 days.
Jilenna said, "It probably only takes half a day."
"That's quite fast," Chadite remarked.
After chatting a bit, the group leaned against the edge of the flower, feeling the sway generated by the flower's movement.
After some time, Alka suddenly asked.
"I've always had a question that I couldn't figure out, if you don't mind, can you tell me why the Flower Fairy must revive at this time?
It feels like none of you are prepared enough for this, shouldn't this be a very significant event?"
Alka had never understood this issue, nor did he have any related information.
He knew this was the revival of an old god.
But it felt like the entire spirit realm wasn't adequately prepared, even including the Flower Fairy herself.
It seemed there was some irresistible reason forcing them to hurriedly revive at the present stage.
Hearing this, Jilenna became somewhat silent.
She glanced at Chadite and then at the Silent Saintess.
"Fortunately, this place can be considered ours; otherwise, I wouldn't know how to answer you."
After making some casual remarks, Jilenna began to address Alka's question.
Seeing the Silent Saintess's seemingly indifferent demeanor, she apparently knew the reason behind it.
"Before you all left, our god had already met the conditions for revival."
Upon hearing this, Alka's mind unconsciously began to recall.
According to what he had seen, there should have been one more Holy Grail-level treasure needed.
No, upon further thought, that seemed incorrect too.
What he saw at the time was a sequence of light points manifesting from strong to weak treasures.
So after seeing the golden light, everything suddenly stopped.
Thinking about it now, at that time, he didn't have time to fully see the last part, as the Flower Fairy had retracted the runes that had been revealed.
So the Divine Essence of the Celestial Flower he acquired was actually the last piece for the Flower Fairy's revival.
After briefly pondering in his mind, Alka continued listening to Jilenna's narration.
"However, at that time, our god said that it would take two years to slowly prepare the ritual, ensuring complete safety before starting the revival."
At this point, Jilenna looked at Alka: "That's why later we spent a large amount of money to invite you to help clear out those cultists within our ranks.
And to clear out those cunning rats outside."
Hearing this, Alka suddenly realized.
Indeed, at the time, the Land of Fragrance appeared exceptionally generous, with a touch of urgency.
Reflecting now, it was eager for the revival of the god they worshipped.
"Everything was progressing smoothly; we even deliberately showed a bit of vulnerability to lure out the cult group with intentions against our god.
However, shortly after, for some unknown reason, our god suddenly became solemn and instructed us to commence the revival immediately.
So everything was hurriedly prepared, resulting in half of the areas falling, causing internal chaos, and those cultists seemed to have coordinated an attack simultaneously.
Even before the god began the revival, the spirits at the Life and Death Boundary were already preparing for full-scale invasion."
After hearing Jilenna's account of the whole event, Alka nodded, realizing that they weren't quite clear on the specifics of the event either.
Only upon the complete revival of the Flower Fairy might they understand the underlying reason.
While the group continued their casual conversation,
half a day's time quickly passed.
Those resting within the flower bud felt it shake violently. The direction of the flower's sway changed, indicating arrival.
The flower gradually rose upward.
A huge flower emerged from the water, blooming.
Alka and three others, stepped out from the flower's heart.
"Hmm, is it just us?"
"Others should be closer to their target."
As Alka spoke, he suddenly felt Chadite's touch beside him.
Turning to look behind them.
The place where they were was atop a cliff, with vines spread below, descending into the marshy sea below.
They were at the edge of an island.
Due to the cliff, their location was well concealed, looking down from above.
