373 Abyss Blood Flower

After Camille had fainted, Dylan picked her up. He planned to carry her to his hideout and apply first aid to her wounds.

Suddenly, he turned his head to look in the front. He heard the rustling of the leaves before his surroundings turned silent.

'It seems he has escaped.' Dylan heard a voice inside his head.

He nodded before Dylan found the guards who had come along with Camille.

The guards were delighted to see that Camille was still alive. All of them started heading to his hideout. It was very close to their current location. As Dylan carried Camille, he couldn't help but closely stare at her body.

Since he was carrying her, he had already experienced just how soft her skin was. But now that he had a good look at her face, he noticed that she was extremely gorgeous.

She was definitely one of the most beautiful women he had seen in his life. A glint of strong desire appeared in his eyes. However, it disappeared just as quickly, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes.

It seemed as though he was concealing this desire from someone. If Azaroth had known this fact, he would have immediately concluded that Dylan was hiding it from the Angel.

Without a doubt, the Angel was certainly a stunning beauty. It would be surprising if Dylan didn't have any ideas for forcing him to move on that angel. It's also possible that he initially assisted her in order to gain the favor of this supreme beauty.

However, Sargan had already escaped. Thus, Azaroth couldn't have known this fact.

Earlier, Sargan had sensed someone probing his spirit, and he immediately chose to flee. He had witnessed the entire event as he was quite curious about that bandit gang and the carriage.

Sargan soon finished speaking and waited for Azaroth's response.

"…Find out more about that beauty," Azaroth spoke.

'From what the situation seems like, this woman could be a possible future lover of Dylan. She could be a point of breakthrough for Sargan.'

Sargan asked with a confused tone, "But how can I find out about this beauty? All my informers are found out easily and killed."

Azaroth expected this question and responded immediately, "Approach the guards of that woman. They are bound to know about her. Kill them once you figure out her identity."

"As you command, Master. I will target the Guard Captain. He is bound to know more than those cannon fodder," Sargan spoke.

"Don't be hasty about it. Look for an opportunity and then target him. They must have returned to Dylan's hideout. Going to that place would be akin to suicide for you. Wait for him to come out. He is bound to go to the town to get a drink or something," Azaroth advised him.

"Don't worry, master. This task will be performed perfectly!" Sargan promised with a confident tone.

"Very well," Azaroth spoke before he cut off his Spiritual Connection with his ring.

He continued to roam in the surroundings and saw a crevice in the ground. A thin crack appeared on the ground, but Azaroth could sense a lot of open space under it.

Moreover, he sensed the presence of a single beast inside it. This beast was actually at the peak 5 Star Rank.

In this area where the Spiritual Energy was so thin, this beast could be considered quite strong. And such strong beasts were usually the guardians of a strong herb.

If this beast was the guardian of a Spiritual Herb, this could possibly be a rare herb. It had actively concealed itself from Azaroth's spiritual senses. After gaining Nature's Blessings, this might be the first herb that he failed to sense.

Azaroth strongly struck the crevice and created an opening for him to explore this place.

His eyes widened slightly as he saw a large creature lying inside this crevice. Its body was that of a lizard, scales of a python, and four pillar-like limbs.

It was actually a Crazed Storm Lizard.

As soon as Azaroth broke the crevice and created an opening, this Crazed Storm Lizard's eyes instantly shot open.

Those slitted eyes glanced at Azaroth before it realized that he was an intruder. The fact that he possessed a human's aura angered it greatly.

"How dare you enter this Lord's Place?!" The Crazed Storm Lizard roared out. It possessed a great arrogance as a dense killing intent was released in the area.

Azaroth was struck with that dense killing intent, and he coldly smiled.

"A lizard truly has low intelligence. You have no idea of how close to death you truly are," Azaroth spoke with a scornful tone.

He then ignored that Crazed Storm Lizard and looked around as if he was searching for something.

The Crazed Storm Lizard's eyes turned red with anger as it saw Azaroth ignoring it.

The beast immediately released a strong wind pressure on the ground and jumped towards Azaroth.

That wind pressure it had released earlier allowed the Crazed Storm Lizard to leap onto Azaroth even though he was flying so high in the air.

"See, you are now even rushing to your death," Azaroth's cold voice resounded in that dark place.

The Lizard felt terror from the bottom of its soul. Just as it was thinking of dodging, Azaroth moved from his spot.

His speed was too quick. The Lizard barely caught sight of his movements. Fortunately, it had polished its instincts to such an extent that its tail moved instantly and tried to block Azaroth's attack.

However, Azaroth grabbed that tail with his right hand. He then began to rotate that Lizard's body and casually threw him to the side.

The Crazed Storm Lizard crashed into the wall on the side. Although the crash was terrifying, the scales on its body prevented it from getting gravely injured.

Meanwhile, Azaroth's eyes were focused on a plant. It was a blood-red flower with few yellow-colored stamens.

Azaroth was extremely delighted to see this flower. It was something he urgently needed as it was the main ingredient for a specific pill in his mind.

This was Abyss Blood Flower! Moreover, it had actually gained spirituality in this area!

This was shocking news. The Abyss Blood Flower required an enormous amount of blood to grow. Additionally, its surroundings had to be filled with dense Ardor.

However, Azaroth sensed that the Ardor in the air was quite thin. This amount of Ardor couldn't have evolved this Abyss Blood Flower.

He was truly puzzled about this fact. However, he decided to think about this later and approached this Abyss Blood Flower.

Even as he was so close, he didn't hastily pluck this flower. If he was impulsive, he might even kill this flower before he could use it.

Azaroth dripped his blood over this Abyss Blood Flower. In this drop of blood, he had concentrated his Wooden Attribute.

As soon as that drop of blood touched the Abyss Blood Flower, it trembled slightly before it began to mature quickly.

The flowerhead was actually budding at speed visible to naked eyes. Azaroth was extremely satisfied that his experiment was a success.

Since this Abyss Blood Flower used blood and Ardor to grow, he felt that using his Blood that was filled with Wooden Attribute would greatly accelerate its growth.

After all, Azaroth's blood contained a trace of the Demon God's Bloodline. It would be strange if the Abyss Blood Flower didn't mature. In fact, it could mutate and become even stronger.

Azaroth's true aim in maturing this Abyss Blood Flower was to collect its seeds.

A couple of minutes later, he managed to grab hold of many seeds of this Abyss Blood Flower. Only then did Azaroth pluck this flower while his hand was congealed with the pure Ardor.

He even created a special array that would allow it to absorb the surrounding Ardor quickly, even when it was inside his Spatial Ring.

He then placed this herb in his Spatial Ring before looking around and checking out the whole place. Now that light had entered this dark location, Azaroth noticed a faint bluish shine.
