Chapter 1271 1182: Opportunity and Calamity Coexist

Looking at the butterfly before him, Wang Yan found it difficult to conceal the surprise in his heart and said, "You are not originally human, you are a Demon Beast?"

Who would have thought that the historically renowned Zhuang Zhou was not human, but actually a Demon Beast?

However, Wang Yan could not understand how, as a Demon Beast, she survived in the Human World.

And why is she now in the Qinrong Palace?

What is her conclusion with Hui Zi?

For a moment, countless questions flooded into Wang Yan's mind.

While Wang Yan was perplexed, the butterfly in front of him spread its wings, which were nearly three zhang long, and the two wings, colorful and radiant, slowly emitted a powerful aura.

The butterfly smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, to be precise, I am just a Demon Soul."

Upon hearing this from Zhuang Zhou, Wang Yan immediately took a closer look. Indeed, the butterfly in front of him seemed a bit illusory, as if it really had no physical body.

The colors on the outside were just a disguise. Through the surface disguise, Wang Yan could vaguely see that the entire butterfly was a light purple color.

Seeing this light purple color, Wang Yan couldn't help but widen his eyes and exclaimed, "Purple - Demon Soul?"

At this moment, Wang Yan was somewhat stunned.

According to the Realm divisions, the cultivation levels of Demon Beasts are Warrior, Judge, King, Emperor, Saint, Venerable, and the corresponding colors are red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue.

And now this butterfly was actually purple, which means her realm was above Demon Venerable.

Above Demon Venerable is Demon God!

"Demon God!" Wang Yan exclaimed in surprise.

"I really didn't expect that a mere Half-Venerable would know about the realm of Demon God."

With these words, the butterfly retracted its wings and transformed into a human form, landing on the ground.

"I know you have many questions, and I can tell you, but the premise is, you need to claim the Fallen Lotus as your own; otherwise, all your previous efforts will be in vain, everything will return to zero, and the Qinrong Palace will disappear again, reappearing a thousand years later."

After saying this, Zhuang Zhou turned and waved, and the curtain behind her slowly opened. Behind this curtain was a giant pale white lotus.

At this time, the lotus was half-bloomed, with drops of red spots scattered on the white petals, looking like tears, or like falling blood.

"This is the Fallen Lotus. What kind of Magical Treasure is it? And how should it be captured?" Wang Yan asked.

Zhuang Zhou did not answer, shook her head, and said, "Fortune and calamity coexist. Success is fortune; failure is calamity. Whether you succeed or fail, it all depends on yourself."

With these words, the Fallen Lotus suddenly opened wide. In the center of the lotus, a green lotus platform appeared, and from this platform, a massive suction force emerged, covering Wang Yan.

Before this enormous suction force, Wang Yan was completely unable to resist, and his body was sucked up onto the lotus seedpod.

Next, the gigantic Fallen Lotus slowly closed, turning into a bud, enclosing Wang Yan within.

Looking at this massive bud, a trace of dimness appeared in Zhuang Zhou's eyes: "I hope you can subdue the Fallen Lotus; otherwise, I will have to wait for another millennium. A thousand years is too long, when can my deep-seated hatred in the Sea of Blood be avenged."

After saying this, Zhuang Zhou fell into deep thought.

At this time, Wang Yan sat on the lotus seedpod, looking at the dense, airtight giant petals around him, enclosing him within.

"What on earth is this treasure? Now that I've been sucked in, what should I do?"

Looking at the lotus petals around him, Wang Yan felt for the first time that he didn't know what to do.

At this moment, he suddenly saw the petal layer closest to him slowly approaching, sticking near him.

Then, Wang Yan felt a tremendous energy surge from this petal into his body.

The Wolf Pattern and Dragon Pattern in Wang Yan's body, once this energy was absorbed, simultaneously emitted a bright light, continuously becoming stronger.

"Is the Fallen Lotus trying to infuse energy into my body? Could this be a treasure that helps increase cultivation? If it is that simple, why did Zhuang Zhou just talk about calamity?"

But now faced with the immense energy, Wang Yan had no other choice but to remain calm and begin fully absorbing the enormous energy.

At this time, Wang Yan was already at Half-Venerable cultivation level, but Half-Venerable is still far from reaching Demon Venerable, its realm a chasm away from Demon Venerable.

This is why Wang Yan could not defeat Venerable Ghost Valley and others.

Now, as the immense energy surged into his body, Wang Yan felt his cultivation continuously advancing, first repairing the severe injuries he had just suffered.

In an instant, the first petal was completely absorbed into Wang Yan's body, and Wang Yan's severe injuries were restored in a moment. Then, his Half-Venerable cultivation began to rise.

The golden Dragon Pattern and cyan Wolf Pattern, like parched lands during a drought, constantly absorbed the enormous energy coming from the Fallen Lotus.

No matter how much they absorbed, this parched land couldn't be filled.

However, although the energy required by the Dragon Pattern and Wolf Pattern was enormous, the energy needed by the Fallen Lotus was even greater.

As the first petal disappeared, the second petal gently caressed over, once again sending tremendous energy into Wang Yan's body.

Wang Yan's cultivation level almost without pause grew upwards, getting closer and closer to the Demon Venerable level.

The petals of the Fallen Lotus became fewer and fewer, while Wang Yan's cultivation became stronger and stronger.

Everything progressed smoothly, without the slightest difficulty.

Yet, because it was so smooth, Wang Yan became suspicious, recalling Zhuang Zhou's earlier words.

Calamity and fortune coexist.

But at this moment, only fortune was seen, no sign of calamity.

Where on earth was the calamity?

Wang Yan in his heart never let down his guard, until the energy continuously surged in, making his cultivation infinitely close to Demon Venerable.

Ordinary people, to break through from Half-Venerable to Demon Venerable, almost take several years, decades, or even a lifetime, but Wang Yan took only half an hour.

As the last petal completely dissipated, the golden dragon and gray wolf in Wang Yan's body roared simultaneously, suddenly flying out of Wang Yan's body, suspended above his head.

Golden brilliance shone, cyan radiance spread, and around the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and Gray Wolf, a phantom Soul Star appeared simultaneously.

The appearance of two great Demon Patterns, Fifth Soul Star appeared simultaneously.

The emergence of the Fifth Soul Star meant Wang Yan had stepped from Half-Venerable into the realm of Demon Venerable.

Sitting on the lotus platform, Wang Yan also saw Zhuang Zhou, who had been standing outside.

Only to see a trace of worry appear on Zhuang Zhou's face.

"Fortune has passed, calamity is imminent. I don't know if you can overcome it."
