Li Chengyi tried his best to stare in the direction of the light.

He saw the purple light approaching, constantly getting closer.

It was a purple ring.

The ring was divided into twelve slots, each with a crystal base.

In the middle of the ring was darkness, but in the darkness, sothing seed to be approaching and erging.

Li Chengyi’s gaze was subconsciously attracted by the darkness in the center of the ring.

He looked and observed with all his might, trying to see what was erging.

Buzz!

In an instant, two silver lights lit up in the darkness.

A suit of dark purple, ferocious tal armor that seed to be made of crystal gems slowly erged from the darkness.

The armor was assembled into a humanoid shape, looking like a sitting person.

The helt was diamond-shaped, with gorgeous and complicated patterns engraved all over the face and forehead.

An X-shaped gray armor extended out from the back of the head, its purpose unknown.

On the back were two huge, wide, straight blades, like a pair of slanted, folded wings.

The straight swords were wrapped in scabbards, and there were also many exquisite and gorgeous patterns engraved on the surface.

Overall, this armor was not thick and looked like a suit of decorative armor worn by ancient generals.

In the details, traces of damage and age could be seen. Damaged nicks and spiderweb-like cracks were visible on the arms and legs.

It was as though it had experienced an incomparably cruel battle.

[Successfully loaded the Flower of Evil.]

An invisible ssage flowed into Li Chengyi’s mind.

[Please freely choose twelve different flowers. Each flower can form its own Flower Scale Gear and has its own Flower Language Ability.]

[A total of twelve Flower God Positions can be filled. After filling them up, all the Flower Scale Gear will fuse and create an ultimate Flower Scale Gear unique to you.]

[Different flowers have different Flower Language Abilities and different evolutionary paths. Once chosen, they will permanently occupy a Flower God Position and cannot be changed. Please choose carefully.]

[This prompt will disappear in five seconds.]

[Finally, Successor, please do not forget your original intention when inheriting abilities.]

[Destruction or creation, it all lies in a single thought.]

The darkness suddenly dispersed.

Li Chengyi stood frozen in a daze, still holding his phone and facing the back of his right hand.

The black pattern on the back of his hand had turned into a dark purple ring.

The ring was divided into twelve slots.

Every slot seed to be alive and was constantly sending him ssages of desire.

They were yearning to find a flower to fill themselves.

What the hell is this…?! Find different flowers and fill the twelve slots? He looked down at the dark purple ring on the back of his hand, not knowing what to do for a mont.

Must it be flowers? He looked at the green grass at his feet. There weren’t any flowers here.

On the lush green grass, there were only short dark green trees that were half the height of a person and a row of bare black trees of an unknown species.

Flowers! I have to find flowers imdiately! I might go in at any ti! Quick!

Li Chengyi was only dazed for a mont before imdiately returning to his senses. He could be pulled into the Dead End at any ti, so it was crucial to find flowers to fill the slots right away!

He imdiately looked around.

It was early May. There were not many people coming and going in the neighborhood, and there weren’t many flowers to see.

The first thing he saw was white and yellow flowers swaying in the wind under the corner of a wall in the distance.

Li Chengyi imdiately stepped out of the garden and rushed straight toward the small flowers. It doesn’t matter what the flower is. I have to try it first!

He ran all the way to the corner of the wall, bent down, and reached out to touch the small flowers gently. Before, just touching was enough. It should be the sa now.

Li Chengyi’s chest kept rising and falling fiercely, but his hands were exceptionally gentle, afraid of damaging the flowers.

He stretched out his index finger and gently and slowly touched one of the white flowers.

This little white flower was only the size of a fingernail. Its petals were in the shape of white fan leaves, surrounding the small bright yellow stan. The stan was like a miniature beehive, composed of many sesa seed-sized bubbles.

Isn’t this… a wild chrysanthemum? After all, Li Chengyi’s predecessor had studied plant conservation, and he recognized the na of this flower from his hazy mories.

He didn’t care too much. He wanted to test the ability of the Flower of Evil first.

As his fingertip approached, his breathing quickly slowed down and beca lighter.

He was observing carefully to see how this ability worked.

Thump!

Finally, the nail of his index finger gently touched the small white wild chrysanthemum with a yellow center.

A stream of aura, like an electric shock, instantly flowed out from the edge of the petal and drilled into Li Chengyi’s finger.

Then this aura flowed from his finger to the back of his hand and entered one of the slots of the dark purple ring.

At the sa ti, relevant information flowed into Li Chengyi’s mind.

[Wild White Chrysanthemum: It grows mostly on grassy roadsides and fields. It has tenacious vitality. Even if its stems and leaves are plucked, it can recover quickly after rainfall. It has the dicinal effect of alleviating fevers and detoxifying.]

[Flower Language: Perseverance]

[Flower Scale Gear Collection Progress: 1%. Number of Evolutions Possible: Insufficient information.]

[Fill it in?]

[Please note that only by developing the Flower Scale Gear to the limit can you activate the Second Flower God Position and fill it with the second flower. Please choose carefully.]

The series of information flowing in made Li Chengyi quickly understand how to use the ability of the Flower of Evil.

Flower Languages were the special abilities of different flowers.

Flower Scale Gear was similar to armor and had certain defensive functions. They were special equipnt that could enhance his strength and increase Flower Language Abilities.

“…” After a mont of silence, Li Chengyi instantly understood the entire ability system of the Flower of Evil.

Simply put, he could transform different flowers into various superpowers and special armors.

Perseverance… He carefully focused on the Flower Language Ability. What’s the use of this ability?

There was no explanation, only a simple na.

And the Flower Scale Gear collection progress is only 1%. In other words, I need to find at least a hundred wild chrysanthemums to obtain the Flower Scale Gear?

Li Chengyi crouched down and quickly reached out to touch the other wild chrysanthemums around him.

Fortunately, these small flowers were everywhere. At a glance, there were many densely packed flowers along the corners of the neighborhood.

He touched one and then another, and soon, the collection progress rose to 10%.

But then his gaze fell on the white five-petaled flowers mixed among the wild chrysanthemums.

This flower looked like a pentagram. There was a faint yellow line-like pattern in the middle of the petals, and the stan in the center was dark yellow with black dots.

Li Chengyi reached out and gently touched a petal.

Imdiately, new information flowed into his mind.

[Roadside Vitex: Evergreen small shrub. Its roots and leaves can all be used as dicine to soothe the liver, alleviate fevers, reduce edema, treat acute hepatitis, rheumatism, back and leg pain, rabies, etc.]

[Flower Language: Mirror of Lovesickness]

[Flower Scale Gear Collection Progress: 3%. Number of Evolutions Possible: Insufficient information.]

[Fill it in?]

Can’t I have a more practical Flower Language Ability? Li Chengyi began to feel anxious.

This so-called Mirror of Lovesickness was obviously not suitable for life-saving and survival purposes. It wasn’t as good as Perseverance.

He quickly stood up and looked around.

The surrounding grayish-white residential buildings stood quietly, like silent white giants.

A black car slowly drove out from the exit of the underground parking garage in the distance. The headlights left two white trails of light in the evening.

The car’s tires ran over the grayish-black ground, rolling over small yellowish-green leaves.

Li Chengyi stood up and quickly scanned his surroundings. He could feel that there wasn’t much ti left.

This was an indescribable feeling. For so reason, he just knew that the Dead End was coming. I have to be as fast as possible!

He looked around and saw a wooden rank built by soone beside an old gray pavilion in the middle of the neighborhood.

On the square wooden rack, strings of small purple grape-like flowers were hanging from above.

The color of the flowers was a little dark, as though they had been blooming for so ti. Many of them had fallen to the ground, and there were flower branches that had been broken and played with by children.

At this mont, there were two seven or eight-year-old children in the pavilion, beating the purple flowers with sticks in one hand.

Li Chengyi took a deep breath and rushed toward the purple flowers.

In less than ten seconds, he rushed under the wooden rack with the purple flowers and grabbed a string of hanging purple flowers with one hand while panting.

This flower was very beautiful. Most of the flowers were in the form of long tubes, and as the purple petals moved inward from the outer edge, the purple color gradually faded until it beca pure white.

Strings of flowers fell from the top like grapes, with at least dozens of flowers scattered on them.

Moreover, all the blooming flowers gradually decreased in size from top to bottom.

The fragrance of the flowers was very light. Without getting close enough, it was impossible to sll them.

Li Chengyi stretched out his hand and imdiately received information.

[Wisteria: Fabaceae, wisteria genus. It has strong resistance to harmful gasses such as sulfur dioxide and hydrogen oxide. It can absorb dust in the air, and it has the function of reducing fluid buildup in the body, killing insects, relieving pain, etc. The dicinal properties are mild, and it is slightly poisonous. It cannot be taken for a long ti.]

[Flower Language: Hand of Captivation]

[Flower Scale Gear Collection Progress: 3%. Number of Evolutions Possible: 2.]

[Fill it in?]

There are enough. If the Flower Language Ability is taken literally, it might be useful. And what is the number of evolutions possible…

Li Chengyi was rapidly calculating and comparing in mind.

The Flower Language Ability of the wisteria seed to be more practical than the previous two.

If he could divert the attention of the human face monster…

He stood on the spot and muttered to himself while holding the wisteria in one hand. The two little boys, who were still playing at the side, shrank back slightly, wondering what kind of illness he had.

After a while, the two little boys ran elsewhere and stopped attacking the wisteria.

This is it!

Finally, Li Chengyi looked at the seven to eight strings of wisteria hanging down from the wooden rack in front of him and made a decision.

As soon as he made up his mind, the information flow that had just asked him if he wanted to fill it in imdiately disappeared.

Threads of cool aura kept flowing out of the wisterias, drilling into his fingertips, flowing into the back of his right hand, and into one of the slots on the dark purple ring.

[Flower God: Wisteria]

[Flower Scale Gear Collection Progress: 5%. When the collection progress reaches 100%, it will materialize the Flower Scale Gear. Please collect more wisterias.]
