138 THE DEVIL SMILE

In the next instant, they were already out of the water. The group found themselves standing to a different place and their clothes were not wet at all.

It was as if their journey underwater is just part of their imagination.

Yet the smiling mermaid sitting at one of the large rock not too far away from where they are was the living testimony that all that they experienced was all for real.

"Congratulation warlocks. You officially entered Echurid. Your journey starts here, and may the odds be at your favor. Good bye"

After saying her piece, the rocky shore submerged in the water little by little, together with Arva who was sitting on it.

"So,...shall we?"

Long Fuzi looked at the rest of the group, and they nodded in response to his question.

Seeing Echurid for the first time, they can't help but feel slightly perplex. Since they heard that it was an ancient territory, they thought it would look like dilapidated or barren, just like how an abandoned place would normally look like.

But contrary to their expectation, the place looks so lively and it doesn't look like it was left unattended for centuries.

Every single part of the place screamed of extravagance and it was filled with a field of the resplendent garden of mystical plants.

Amidst this garden, it was no doubt that different mystical plants with maturity of over a decade is lying in wait. If they could get their hands on it, it will easily fetch them a good sum.

"MEOW"

[Hmmm... our long days being broke will finally come to its end... magic stones... come to grandpa!]

Having prior experience, Mu Lingxi and her friends did not let their guards down this time. Janus was released from the confines of the storage ring and they walk warily as they moved further inside.

No matter how they look at it, the place really doesn't feel like abandon to say the least. If so, they can even feel eyes staring at them.

"MEOW"

[Could it be that there are ghosts here???]

"Shut up. Don't scare me..."

Mu Lingxi and Janus were talking through their mental link. But the same idea was relayed within the group.

Since Echurid use to be the place of dwelling for those who practice necromancy, and this involves talking to the dead,... they also think that it is possible for a ghost to appear here.

They haven't reached the 10-meter mark yet, but their backs were already drenched with cold sweats.

Nothing strange was happening, yet the group was already scared enough because of their own silly imagination.

They entered the garden that has weird looking plants. They found it weird because the flowers within this garden were not blooming yet. All they could see are wide buds.

But as if their greatest fear turns into reality, they heard soft laughter and it sounded the giggling was coming omewhere near them. Aside from that, there is a smell of a sweet scent in the air.

The  intoxicating fragrance seems to be emanated from the garden of flowers

"Shook! Quick! Close your eyes! Don't look at the flowers, Run!!!"

Mu Lingxi was reminded about a specific mystical plant described in their Phytomysticology book. The description in the book, fits perfectly on what they are experiencing right now, The DEVIL SMILE FLOWER!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

It was actually a scary existence. It doesn't look harmful, but behind its harmless appearance hides its terrifying ability.

The Devil Smile Flower is always in its bud form all year round. It will only bloom once it senses the presence of breath.

Upon blooming, it will release a sweet scent but the most crucial detail is that, whoever saw the flower bloom, that unlucky fellow will have his or her soul suck away from its body.

The Devil Smile Flower will take their soul and use it as their nourishment. After devouring the soul completely, the flower will go back to its bud form as if nothing happens.

Leaving only an empty husk of its victim. The body will be nothing but a corpse, and there will be no chance of revival as its soul was forcefully taken away from the body, dissipating into nothingness.

Who would have thought that they will encounter this terrifying mystical plant right after entering Echurid?
