Chapter 1155: First Hearing of the Resurrection Grass
Then Feng Jingtian sighed softly and continued, "Not only that, the environment in the Nine Netherworld is extremely harsh and full of dangers.
In addition to the unpredictable space cracks, there are also many powerful and strange restrictions and vengeful spirits.
Even someone like me would not dare to venture into this place without adequate preparation."
Li Yue, Yun Xi, and Yan Fei Yu all looked solemn upon hearing this.
After listening to this, Lu Chen's eyes revealed strong interest and determination.
Then he asked, "Lord City Lord, since you mentioned the existence of the Samsara Mirror, I guess you know something about how to enter the Nine Netherworlds? Would you be willing to tell me a thing or two?"
Hearing this question, Feng Jingtian gave a meaningful smile.
"Indeed, I do know some clues on how to find and enter the Nine Netherworld. However, this information is not provided for free."
Upon hearing this, Liyue, Yunxi and Yan Feiyu all showed a hint of vigilance on their faces.
They exchanged glances, as if they were secretly communicating something through telepathy.
Lu Chen had actually guessed that the other party must have other intentions, otherwise, apart from his status as the lord of a city,
Just based on the other party's terrifying cultivation level of the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm, there is no need to waste time here with Lu Chen and a few juniors.
"Please let the city lord know."
Lu Chen said calmly. Although he already had some guesses in his mind, he decided to listen to the other party.
Feng Jingtian picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and said:
"If you are lucky enough to enter the Nine Netherworld, I need you to help me collect a resurrection grass."
Feng Jingtian said this while looking at Lu Chen. Obviously, in his opinion, the key to the journey to Jiuyou still lies in Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was slightly stunned. He originally thought that Feng Jingtian would make more stringent demands, but he didn't expect that he would just collect a resurrection grass.
However, when he saw the subtle worry in Feng Jingtian's eyes, he realized that there might be a deeper story hidden behind this resurrection grass.
"Resurrection Grass?" Lu Chen repeated, trying to read more information from Feng Jingtian's expression.
To be honest, he had never heard of the name "Resurrection Grass" before, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
At this moment, Li Yue, who was standing by, suddenly seemed to be shocked and interrupted in amazement: "Are you talking about the treasure that can reverse life and death and even restore the soul to its place - the Resurrection Grass?"
Li Yue's voice was full of disbelief, as if this was a magical herb that only existed in legends.
"Legend has it that this holy medicine grows in extremely cold places and is extremely rare. The Nine Netherworld is indeed a suitable place for it to grow." Liyue continued, her words revealing her understanding of this herb.
Feng Jingtian heard Li Yue's words and looked at her with appreciation, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Obviously, he was surprised by Li Yue's knowledge.
"That's right. As long as you promise to bring me a resurrection grass, I will tell you how to find the Nine Netherworld." Feng Jingtian's voice was calm and firm, and he seemed to be full of confidence in the deal.
Seeing this, Lu Chen asked softly, "Can you tell us the reason?" His tone was respectful, and revealed his curiosity and understanding of the matter.
Feng Jingtian was silent for a moment, as if weighing whether he should reveal more details.
Finally, he decided to be honest.
“Many years ago, a loved one of mine passed away in an accident.
Although her soul has been preserved after many efforts, the power of the Resurrection Grass is still needed to bring her back to life."
Hearing this, everyone present looked at him with sympathy.
It turns out that this seemingly omnipotent city lord also has his own pain and regrets.
"I understand." Lu Chen nodded.
We will do our best to find the Resurrection Herb and bring it back to you. But if we fail to find it, please forgive us, Lord of the City."
Lu Chen didn't say too much. What if he failed to find the resurrection grass? Wouldn't he be digging a hole for himself?
Feng Jingtian nodded gratefully, “I know this is a difficult task, especially considering the dangers of the Nine Netherworld.
So I’ve got some extra help for you.”
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite little box from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Chen.
“It contains a ‘heart-protecting amulet’ that can protect the holder from fatal harm at a critical moment.
In addition, I have also contacted several old friends, and they will provide you with necessary assistance on your way to the Far North."
Taking the small box, Lu Chen felt the heavy weight inside.
He knew that this was not only the weight of the item itself, but also the trust that Feng Jingtian had in them.
"Thank you for your help. We will definitely not let you down." Lu Chen said solemnly.
After hearing what Lu Chen said, Feng Jingtian showed joy on his face and said "good" several times in a row to express his recognition and appreciation for Lu Chen and others.
Then, without hesitation, he passed on the method of finding the entrance to the Nine Netherworld to Lu Chen through his divine thoughts.
The process of transmitting divine thoughts was extremely fast and was completed in the blink of an eye.
After receiving Feng Jingtian's divine thoughts, Lu Chen and others thanked him and said goodbye to him.
Then, they resolutely left the City Lord's Mansion and embarked on a journey to the Nine Netherworld...
However, what Lu Chen didn't know was that just as they stepped out of the City Lord's Mansion, Manager Li asked Feng Jingtian with a suspicious look on his face: "Your Excellency, these people are only at the Golden Immortal Realm and their strength is relatively weak. Can they really be competent for such an important mission?"
Manager Li's worries are not without reason. After all, the Nine Netherworld is an extremely dangerous place, full of unknown challenges and difficulties.
With the current cultivation level of Lu Chen and others, it seems a bit difficult to successfully reach the Nine Netherworld and complete the mission.
So, Manager Li suggested, "Your Excellency, why don't we spend some money to ask a powerful Immortal Venerable to help us. This way, the chances of success may be greater."
However, Feng Jingtian waved his hands at Li Guanshi's suggestion. He explained, "Over the years, too many of our cultivators have died in the Nine Netherworld. You should know that it is the only way to the earth.
The space is filled with deathly aura and is extremely dangerous. Even a strong person at the Immortal Venerable Realm may not be able to reach the gate of hell safely."
When Manager Li heard this, the expression on his face became even more confused, but he did not dare to disobey Feng Jingtian's wishes.
Perhaps he saw through his trusted subordinate's thoughts, Feng Jingtian continued with a smile:
"I know what you are thinking, but you don't know that boy named Lu Chen is a man with both fire in wood and fire in stone.
If my guess is correct, the reason why that kid went to the Nine Netherworlds was to find the air fire and then fuse the Three True Fires.
However, Fire in Wood and Fire in Stone can effectively resist death energy, so it is very likely that Lu Chen, the kid, will get the Resurrection Grass.
So, you personally take a few people to the entrance of the Nine Netherworld to set up an ambush, and I will meet up with you after I deal with some things. By then, I will prepare a big surprise for that kid."
When Manager Li heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile on his face: "I will obey your orders."………………
