“Despicable!”
The Dawn Holy Maiden's expression changed dramatically as she issued yet another condemnation towards Ye Zhongming.
She felt her head starting to spin, and a wave of weakness washed over her.
As her contracted battle pet, Yangos' condition was also apparent to her; it was clear that this giant dragon was experiencing a decline in health as well, with its strength becoming extremely unstable, rendering it unable to control the Furnace Fire Domain ability.
“What is that?!”
King Hongxiang also realized where the problem lay; he looked around at the vibrant flowers and was quite astonished.
Could these flowers really affect two eighth-level lives?
The answer was, of course, yes.
This sea of flowers was Sailor's Dream Flower Field.
It was a special equipment used by the resistance area to deal with Ye Zhongming, part of the national specialty roulette, but later Ji Rui Guang and others successively abandoned it and it became Ye Zhongming's spoils of war.
In the previous battles, Ye Zhongming had not used this item because it had usage limitations, was easily destroyed, and therefore lost its effectiveness. Additionally, Sailor's Dream Flower Field was still in the process of cultivation and had not yet achieved the desired result for Ye Zhongming.
This time, however, the cultivation had finally reached a nearly complete stage.
There were quite a few good companions for such flowers that specifically fed on the blood and flesh of mutated life forms in Cloud Summit. For example, the carnivorous plants and the Underworld Bone Demon Platform.
These required consuming the energy within the flesh to further develop, and to feed them, there was a year-round task in the Puxing Town's Cloud Summit official exchange to acquire mutated life corpses with materials removed.
Although the purchase price was low, these were items that were to be thrown away and unwanted anyway, so even at a low price, it was free money.
Thus, as soon as this task was launched, it was welcomed by the surrounding forces, who sent these corpses to Cloud Summit in exchange for some magic crystals. Some forces even capitalized on this opportunity to collect these corpses from various hunting grounds and sold them collectively to Cloud Summit Villa, profiting from the transaction.
Now, near Ying City, it was rare to see the remnants of battle, such as severed limbs and broken arms left behind; instead, everything was collected and taken away.
In a short time, the changes brought about by this task had formed a complete profit chain.
After these corpses arrived at Cloud Summit, they were mainly used to nourish these three entities, and the remaining ones would be consumed by various carnivorous battle beasts.
With ample food, the Underworld Bone Demon Platform was already very close to its next breeding period, and the carnivorous plants had made great progress as well. Sailor's Dream Flower Field, which was prioritized for cultivation, had even leveled up.
Now, compared to before, this flower field had made significant advancements; besides the weakness ability, it also had an added state of dizziness, and the level of targets it could influence had increased accordingly.
Previously, Sailor's Dream Flower Field likely had little effect on eighth-level lives.
The weakness state, of course, could not maintain full combat power. A skill from the Furnace Fire Domain, which made both the posthumous children and the Dawn Temple turn pale, was instantly shattered by a brilliant sea of flowers.
When the red clouds above disappeared and the surrounding flame barriers faded away, the Dawn Holy Maiden and Yangos had to face the harsh reality of entering a weakened state.
If both the person and dragon were in good condition, their resistance would be much higher, but now Yangos had been baptized by the city's defensive weapons, and the Holy Maiden had been besieged by four people, resulting in injuries for both.
Thus, they were both caught off guard.
King Ling Kun, though still confused, would not miss this opportunity. With a sudden exertion of force, he pushed the much larger Yangos backward; in order to maintain balance, its wings had to spread and flap, exposing the Holy Maiden.
