Chapter 726 Frigid Blood Lily

Raising the seed into the air, Shiro narrowed her eyes and wondered if it was going to turn into a flower anytime soon.

However, seeing as though there were no reactions even after waiting 5 minutes, Shiro decided to take it back to the Section of Life and see if there's any changes there.

Looking back at the city, she felt a little bad for killing 90% of the people here but she set the thought aside for now.

As cruel as it was, she didn't think too much of it since she was more focused on killing Adriel and Behmut along with saving the spirits.

It was hypocritical considering the things she had said before but that's how she was.

Jumping into the air, she flew back to the Section of life.

###

The whole trip back to the Tower of Gaia only took her around 3 days as she used the Section of Sky to help her return faster.

Making a few Air Tunnels for herself, she was able to increase her top speed thanks to the wind.

Upon arriving at the city beneath the Tower of Gaia, Shiro didn't waste any time and made her way to the tower.

The closer she got to the tower, the hotter the seed became and the blood within seemed to boil ever so slightly.

Raising her eyebrows, Shiro wondered if she should do this in the spirit world instead.

'I should be able to do it here. I don't see any reason that it can't be done.' Shiro shrugged.

Crouching around the back of the tower, she dug a small hole and placed the seed in the whole before planting it again.

Waiting for a moment, she noticed the ground shake a little as she quickly stepped back.

*Krrr….

A tiny root dug its way out of the ground and slowly extended towards Shiro.

Stopping around a meter away from her the root seemed to be asking for something.

Tilting her head, Shiro wondered if it was asking for water. But when she thought back to how she fed it blood, she realised that water might not be what it wanted.

Summoning Nivlim, she made a small cut on her finger and dripped some blood on the root.

Just as her blood touched the root, a thin sheet of ice coated its surface as it slowly retreated back to the seed.

Not a second after, the ground around the seed split apart as a crystal blue flower slowly bloomed.

The crystal blue petals slowly turned red the closer it got to the centre as it resembled the look of a lily.

Surprised by this flower, Shiro reached out and gently rubbed one of the petals. Feeling a piercing cold, Shiro glanced at her finger which was slightly frozen.

Seeing a notification on her system, she checked it out while keeping an eye on the flower.

[Due to the circ.u.mstances, the Blossom of Life has evolved into Frigid Blood Lily]

[Frigid Blood Lily - Rainbow]

A special type of flower that has received both the blessing of gods and the spirits. It is resistant to all elements especially Ice. Innately, this plant contains a certain amount of Divine power that when consumed, will enhance your physique immensely. Due to the harsh requirements of its appearance, not many would recognise the Frigid Blood Lily's importance due to its rarity.

The benefits that one receives when consuming this flower is 50% resistance to all elements and 80% resistance to ice along with a 30% increase to physique.

Passive Skill – Divine Lifeline (3/3)

After consuming the Frigid Blood Lily, you receive three lifelines.

First Lifeline – Strength – When you are close to death, this lifeline activates and grants you increased strength to escape your peril. This is an overall boost to your whole body which also increases speed.

Second Lifeline – Astral Self – The next time you are close to death or when you are still in danger after the first lifeline has been exhausted, you will replace your mortal body with your Astral Self for a small period of time. In this form, you cannot be harmed by physical attacks or common magic attacks. You are able to phase through everything.

Third Lifeline – Renewal – This third lifeline triggers when you are killed regardless of the situation, including when your soul is taken, your body can be healed back to full when you desire so long as your soul is still in the same realm even if it is locked behind a special container. Once this is triggered, you will lose the benefits that come with consuming the Frigid Blood Lily.

Reading the description of the Frigid Blood Lily, Shiro raised her eyebrows in surprise since even she was tempted to just consume it.

However, remembering that the last step was to nurture the great deity's child, she stopped herself and instead activated her True Spirit Nature. While she didn't know what she should do to nurture this flower, she did have a way for it to protect itself.

Snapping her fingers, a magic circle appeared before her.

Pushing it towards the flower, she enchanted it with a power that would continuously apply so long as it was receiving energy from the land.

[Frozen Soul Reaper Sigil]

"If anyone tries to pluck you out of the ground, hit them with your roots and they'll begin to freeze. Once they're frozen entirely, you can steal their soul as nutrients for yourself or crush them. Don't kill people who didn't mean to stumble into you though. Try to disguise yourself if you can since kids are attracted to beautiful things." Shiro smiled and patted one of its petals. While she didn't know if the flower could understand her or not, she might as well say it just in case.

Feeling her touch, the Frigid Blood Lily swayed gently as the roots wrapped around her finger as if hugging her.

Since the Frozen Soul Reaper Sigil was her power, naturally it didn't work on her. Plus, it was the Lily's choice on whether or not it wanted to try to take her soul.

Feeling its touch, Shiro chuckled and deactivated her Spirit Nature.

Seeing the enchantment remain even after she returned to normal, Shiro smiled.

"Seems like you understand me. In that case then try not to make yourself stand out until you can protect yourself ok? I heard that after plants cultivate for a while they can become humans too. I'm not sure if that's a fairy tale or not but if you do obtain a human body, you should be able to protect yourself a bit better." Shiro said as the flower swayed a little from her words.

Removing the roots from her finger, the Frigid Blood Lily broke off a piece of its petal and handed it over to Shiro.

[Frozen Blood Petal – Rainbow]

A petal from the mythic flower. It can act as a protective charm and stop an attack that will harm your life.

It can also be used as a material for medicine and armour.

Seeing this, Shiro chuckled and patted the flower once more.

"Thank you." Shiro smiled. Bouncing around for a bit, the flower dived back into the ground and disappeared.

Just as the flower faded away, a golden Sigil appeared on the tower surface and floated towards her.

Wrapping around her wrist, Shiro saw a new notification.

[Key to Gaia's Tower]

You have completed the three steps, you may directly enter the final floor and challenge the guardian of her divinity.

Understanding that the last step was supposed to see if she could resist against her temptation of the flower, Shiro shrugged before standing up straight.

Checking her medical supplies, food along with the remaining time on her True Spirit Nature, 1 minute and 20 seconds, Shiro reached out with her hand and touched the surface of the tower.

Just as she did this, a golden gate appeared in front of her as she entered without hesitation.

Closing her eyes to avoid the blinding light, she opened them back up to find herself deep underground.

Looking up, it looked as thought she was beneath a giant tree since the tree roots could be seen draping down from the ceiling with large ones embedded into the walls of this place.

'So the tower teleports you to the top and you make your way down huh? It's different to Ouranos' tower but I suppose that makes sense.' Shiro thought to herself as the ground started to shake.

Rocks started to erupt out from the ground as they slowly merged with one another into a statue of a dragon. Green energy flooded inside its body as her system rang with a new notification.
