Misguided practice of sinister cultivation techniques: Slander! The problem lies with you all, not me!-Chapter 1104 - 572: Crimson Decay

"Scarlet Decay?"

Looking at the vast expanse of purple flowers like beauties stepping out of a bath, Duan Yun only felt that they were neither scarlet nor decayed.

Ming Xing understood what he meant, stretched out his right hand, and was about to touch a nearby purple flower.

In just an instant, the flower seemed to come alive, swaying and turning scarlet, emitting a red mist like blood threads, looking both scarlet and decayed.

The flower suddenly lunged at Ming Xing's hand, seemingly about to swallow her arm whole.

In the next moment, a moon-like Qi Force emanated from Ming Xing's hand, and the flower shrank back like a startled child, appearing weak, helpless, and pitiful.

But Duan Yun was well aware that the momentum of the flower just now was definitely aimed at devouring people.

This undoubtedly confirmed the saying in the Martial World, "The prettier a woman, the more dangerous she is!" and so it is with flowers.

The prettier the flower, the more dangerous it is.

Duan Yun couldn't help but ask, "What's the origin of these flowers?"

If they were only meant to bite people and emit an eerie decayed aura, it wouldn't be enough to connect them with Mingyu Palace's current crisis.

Ming Xing's voice echoed eerily, "They are not of the mortal world; they can even be said to be the origin of Mingyu Palace."

Afterward, Ming Xing stood amidst thousands of Scarlet Decay and began to tell him about the origins of Mingyu Palace, which could even be described as its great secret.

According to Ming Xing's description, Scarlet Decay existed before Mingyu Palace was established.

One could say that the establishment of Mingyu Palace was meant to block these flowers.

Just like some temples and nunneries in the Martial World, which are established to suppress certain evils.

The first master of Mingyu Palace was named Wang Chenghua, known as "Young Master Chenghua," and could be considered a prodigy of the ages, an older figure than the Emperor of All Time.

Compared to that world-ruling emperor, Wang Chenghua may not have been as domineering, but he was a formidable presence.

Wang Chenghua was characterized by having many Divine Skills, and his martial arts manual, "Chenghua's Treasures," integrated and created numerous Divine Skills, with its complexity and intricacy as vast as the sea. It's said that any one of the Divine Skills he mastered would cause a great stir if spread in the Martial World.

At this point, Ming Xing's tone shifted, saying, "The 'Nine Death Silkworm' of your little sweetheart is also one of Wang Chenghua's ultimate techniques."

Upon hearing this, Duan Yun already had an idea of Wang Chenghua's level.

Shen Ying's Nine Death Silkworm, even for someone like him, an extraordinary talent for cultivation, felt truly magical.

He had evolved and created many martial arts, but when it came to Nine Death Silkworm, he truly struggled to break through.

Because he could sense it was a Divine Skill created by someone with talents no lesser than his own, his extraordinary wisdom, due to his youth, was unable to integrate and transform it.

He could only blame the slow development of his extraordinary wisdom for being unable to keep up with him as a Young Hero.

However, this also proved Wang Chenghua's level was indeed very high, at least several stories high.

Probably only such a person could create the legendary Mingyu Palace.

The existence of Mingyu Palace, in a sense, was to curb the spread of Scarlet Decay, because Wang Chenghua had long realized that if these flowers spread, the entire mortal world would become devastated.

Because as the guardian duration extended, the martial arts of Mingyu Palace also became connected with Scarlet Decay, making their martial arts stronger and eventually becoming the Martial Arts Holy Land.

But the growth of Scarlet Decay brought tremendous risk.

Because it was indeed a very weird and terrifying thing.

Duan Yun wondered, "Is it impossible to uproot them completely?"

In his view, these flowers were very sinister, but once his Heroic Fire Lotus was unleashed, it might burn them clean.

Ming Xing glanced at him and said, "Come with me."

As she spoke, her entire body was enveloped by a moon-like Qi Force and she walked forward.

At this moment, the ground full of Scarlet Decay seemed to fear her presence, directly clearing a path.

Duan Yun quickly followed.

Following Ming Xing through all this, Duan Yun could clearly feel the "Scarlet Decay" changing colors, emitting a decayed aura, even glaring at him with malice.

But because of Ming Xing, they dared not get close.

However, once they went beyond a certain range, they seemed to surge and follow, causing Duan Yun to clearly feel the passage behind him getting blocked off.

Even though these flowers became scarlet and decayed, they were still very beautiful, like blooming beauties, but at this moment, he couldn't focus on their beauty, only sensing danger.

With this, Duan Yun couldn't help but find Ming Xing even more fascinating.

Because in such an environment, she seemed like the sole lamp dispelling the surrounding darkness.

Beneath the Immortal Realm-like Mingyu Palace, such bizarre and perilous places were hidden.

Duan Yun wasn't sure how long he had walked among these flowers, but he felt a long time had passed.

Because walking inside made one feel suffocated.

Even someone of his level couldn't completely ignore the oppressive feeling of Scarlet Decay, as if with one misstep, they would assimilate and corrupt you.

But it must be said, the aura they emitted was quite pleasant.

The word "decay" is not associated with pleasantness unless you're someone with a peculiar taste.

Duan Yun certainly wasn't someone with a peculiar taste, but he genuinely found the decayed scent pleasant, like a fragrance of dilapidation.

Here, Scarlet Decay became denser and more active, and Duan Yun only felt the whole space start writhing.
