Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

After completing the task of escorting the ancient scholar, Qin Feng and his companions finally had a chance to take a good rest. However, before they could relax in the academy for a few days, Vice Dean Feng Jian assigned them another seemingly simple task - to collect a soul beast plant called "Dream Devouring Flower". The task didn't sound dangerous, but for them who were used to fierce battles, this experience was full of unexpected troubles.

"Isn't the mission this time just to pick flowers? Could there be any unexpected things?" Chu Tian yawned lazily, not caring about the mission that was about to begin.

Ye Li became alert, "Don't take it lightly, Vice President Feng Jian never assigns us simple tasks."

Qin Feng also nodded in agreement, "Since it is a soul beast plant, it will definitely not be as easy to deal with as ordinary flowers and plants."

Zhang Meng was full of disdain, "No matter what it is, we can always handle it."

They soon arrived at the designated location for the mission - a forest full of strange atmosphere. The forest was filled with a faint purple mist, which made people feel a sense of inexplicable tension. After searching for a while, several people finally found the Dream Eater Flower in the depths of a dense forest. It was extremely gorgeous, with petals as crystal clear as rubies, and exuding waves of charming fragrance.

"Is this the Dream-Eating Flower?" Ye Li took a step closer and observed the flower carefully.

However, just as she reached out to pick it, the Dream-Eating Flower suddenly made a low hum, and then the ground began to shake, and the surrounding vines attacked them like living things.

"It's not that simple!" Qin Feng grabbed Ye Li and pulled her away from the vines' attack range.

The vines quickly wrapped around them, trying to trap them. Qin Feng wielded the Dragon Shadow Sword and quickly cut off some of the vines, but these vines were like undead monsters, and the more he cut, the more they appeared.

"There's simply no way to defeat these vines!" Zhang Meng shouted, his giant rock bear also struggling to fight the vines.

Chu Tianze dodged and complained, "It looks like we're going to be held back by some flower vines."

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more dangerous, Qin Feng suddenly had an idea, "They must be controlled by the Dream Devouring Flower! If we can pick the Dream Devouring Flower, the vines may stop attacking!"

"It sounds reasonable, but how do we get close to that flower?" Ye Li frowned.

"I have a way." Chu Tian's eyes turned, and he suddenly summoned a storm wolf, which ran quickly on the field to attract the attention of the vines.

Seeing this, Qin Feng rushed towards the Dream Devouring Flower decisively, using the speed and accuracy of the Dragon Shadow Sword to cut off the last few vines that blocked his way, and finally picked the Dream Devouring Flower. As he expected, as the Dream Devouring Flower was picked, all the vines immediately stopped attacking and collapsed to the ground as if they had lost their vitality.

"See, it's simple." Qin Feng confidently shook the Dream-Eating Flower in his hand.

Ye Li said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Don't be too confident next time. It's always dangerous like this."

"Don't be so nervous, at least we have completed the task again." Zhang Meng laughed.

They returned to the academy with the collected dream-eating flowers. Vice Dean Feng Jian was very satisfied with their performance, but the ancient scholar suddenly appeared and made a strange request - he wanted to study the dream-eating flower himself.

"I want to study its dream-enchanting properties, which may be of great help to our understanding of the characteristics of soul beast plants!" said the ancient spirit scholar excitedly.

Qin Feng looked at him helplessly, "Mr. Gu Ling, we were almost entangled to death by its vines just now. Are you sure you want to study this dangerous plant?"

The ancient scholar disagreed, "That's exactly its charm! Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will go wrong."

However, the next day a strange rumor spread in the academy - an ancient scholar accidentally touched the petals of a dream-eating flower while doing research in the laboratory, and fell into a strange dream. After waking up, he began to talk nonsense and even claimed that he had discovered the "secret of eternal life"!

Vice Dean Feng Jian sighed helplessly and said to Qin Feng and others, "You have completed your task very well, but it looks like I have to find someone else to help with the follow-up."

"Is the ancient scholar okay?" Ye Li asked worriedly.

"He should wake up soon." Feng Jian said with a wry smile, "But this research may have to be put on hold for the time being."

Qin Feng and his companions looked at each other, and finally couldn't help laughing. Although the mission was full of twists and turns and jokes, they also got to know each other better during this journey, and the tacit understanding of the team became deeper.

"Looks like we have to find another opportunity to relax." Chu Tian joked.

"I hope it will be an easy task next time." Ye Li smiled helplessly, and everyone nodded in agreement.
