Absolute Great Teacher Chapter 942 – Resolving the Situation Brilliantly

Chapter 942: Resolving the Situation Brilliantly

Translator: Lordbluefire

After waiting for a few minutes in worry, Xianyu Wei couldn’t hold back anymore.

“Teacher, how is it?”

Sun Mo shook his head. “No reaction.”

Sun Mo hoped to see signs of poisoning. With that, he’d be able to go through the selections from the symptoms to ascertain what type of plant it was. However, since there were no reactions, he was at a loss.

After all, in this world, most plants would not produce any reaction.

Take tree bark for example. Their taste and texture when chewed were about the same, but they came from different trees and were different.

.

“System, the skill you gave me is useless!”

/ please keep reading on MYB0XN0VEL(d0t)C0M.

Sun Mo complained.

He had activated Divine Sight to observe this flower sea. However, the data showed that they were chrysanthemum flowers and those butterflies, just like what he saw them as.

“I’m not your father. Please don’t rely on the system for everything.”

The system’s voice was freezing.

Ding!

“Mission released. Please leave this flower sea and break free from the enemies’ pursuit. Upon completion, you’ll be rewarded with a diamond treasure chest.”

“If you kill the enemies, then the reward will be doubled.”

Sun Mo frowned, wanting to curse. However, he then calmed down.

He was the leader of the group and the main pillar here. Therefore, at a time like this, he must remain composed.

“You guys take the time to rest more. I’ll give it some thought.”

Sun Mo consoled them, “Don’t worry, since we’re stuck in the flower sea, then the enemies will be just as unlucky.”

“That’s right. At least, we’re safe for now.”

At a time like this, Li Ziqi took on the responsibility as the eldest martial sister and helped Sun Mo to uphold the group’s emotions. If she saw someone nervous or scared, she would go and talk to them.

However, her junior martial siblings performed really well.

…

“Ziyu, what are your thoughts on this?”

Sun Mo and Mei Ziyu walked a distance away and discussed softly.

“Our six senses must have been affected by the scent or substances released by some kind of darkness plant that creates illusions.”

Mei Ziyu sighed and looked into the distance. “This is the horrifying thing about the Darkness Continent.”

The brilliant and beautiful chrysanthemum flower field was like a stretch of golden flower sea under the illumination of the setting sun. It looked like an extremely beautiful painting that was engraved by nature.

But this painting was poisonous.

“You haven’t heard of such darkness plants either?”

Li Ruolan followed them.

Mei Ziyu came from a reputable clan and had always been living in the Jixia Learning Palace. Exposed to the environment, she should have extensive knowledge.

“The Darkness Continent is mysterious and even if all the famous schools in the Nine Provinces were to work together, our understanding of the Darkness Continent wouldn’t exceed 30%.”

Mei Ziyu explained.

“Then what should we do?”

Li Ruolan had never experienced such things before.

Based on experience, the higher one went on the Darkness Continent, the more dangerous it would be. Although this primitive forest had appeared abruptly, since it was at the second level, then it shouldn’t be too dangerous.

However, the reality was clearly not like this.

“Rely on intelligence.”

Mei Ziyu threw a glance at Li Ruolan. “Isn’t this something normal? One will always encounter different kinds of danger when exploring the Darkness Continent. We just need to resolve them.”

“That’s also the value of our existence.”

People from the Nine Provinces always formed groups to explore new land, and their members mustn’t just be good at fighting. There must also be talents who excelled in all sorts of knowledge, especially in the area of botany.

Those top-notch exploration teams would always have multiple high-level great teachers from different domains.

“…”

Li Ruolan thought to herself. (Isn’t this just crap talk?)

Rely on intelligence?

These three words might sound simple, but the meaning they represented was the accumulation of knowledge and experience from a lot of great teachers over several decades.

“Stop talking. Sun Mo is thinking.”

Murong Mingyue also came over.

Li Ruolan had no solution either, so she could only put her hopes onto Sun Mo. But this wasn’t the case for Mei Ziyu. She started to check the soil, plants, and butterflies, ascertaining the ecosystem here.

She didn’t even miss out on the lichens or fungus.

Sun Mo was a botany expert. Therefore, he knew about Mei Ziyu’s thought process. However, they were lacking in experimental tools at the moment and couldn’t afford to move so slowly.

“We must solve this problem with an out-of-the-box method.”

Sun Mo racked his brains and sat down in the flower field. He casually plucked a flower and played with it.

How to break the illusionary realm?

Usually, illusionary realms like this wouldn’t pose a threat to the native lifeforms because regardless if it was in the Nine Provinces or the modern world, ecospheres existed.

There wasn’t a single lifeform that could exist by itself.

“Then can we do what we did previously, just like how we got the monkey to lead the way? Maybe we can summon a battle pet and get it to lead us out.”

Sun Mo immediately looked around.

There was a disadvantage to this battle tactic too.

Firstly, they’d need to find a lifeform that had been living here for several decades. After all, only an old horse would be able to recognize the way. But to speak the truth, there weren’t many species of darkness as intelligent as that monkey.

Moreover, flower fields were different from primitive forests. There were very few lifeforms that were living here.

As expected, Sun Mo searched for five minutes but didn’t even see a marmot, let alone large-scaled ferocious beasts.

(I can’t possibly catch a butterfly and get it to bring us out, right?)

Sun Mo felt that the hopes weren’t high. These butterflies might have spent their entire lives from their birth to their deaths in this flower field.

“Teacher, have some water.” Li Ziqi came over and handed Sun Mo a cup of water. “I’ve added honey.”

“I’m not thirsty.”

Sun Mo shook his head and then became invigorated as he stared toward the cup of water in the little sunny egg’s hand.

Honey?

That was right. The butterflies couldn’t fly out of the flower field, but the bees would definitely come flying in, right? After all, given the great number of bees, there had to be some that’d fly in.

Then how did they go out?

“Pharaoh, hurry up and go search the surroundings to see if there are bees.”

Sun Mo instructed.

Although Sun Mo had no idea how the results would be, he had a new train of thought.

It wasn’t to summon a bee and get it to bring them out, but to think from the point of view of bees. Why were they unaffected by this flower field?

They should have eaten something that produced antibodies.

Then what did they eat?

Sun Mo looked at the golden chrysanthemum in his hand. Those butterflies shouldn’t be affected by the illusionary realm either, and their food should be similar to bees, right?

So it was pollen?

Or was it nectar?

However, this problem was no longer important. They could try both. It wouldn’t kill anyway.

Sun Mo immediately had everyone gather these two things.

“Sun Mo, have you thought of a solution?”

Li Ruolan looked spirited.

“No, I just had a train of thought.”

Looking at the flowers his students had collected and taken care of, Sun Mo was about to eat some when he was stopped by them.

“Teacher, let me eat it!”

“Let me do it!”

“Teacher, nothing must happen to you. Why not let me try the medicine?”

The nine students all fought to be the one to test it out.

“You guys don’t have sufficient knowledge, so it’d be useless even if you were to eat them.”

Sun Mo rejected.

“Teacher…”

His personal disciples felt extremely touched and instantly contributed a wave of favorable impression points.

15 minutes later, Sun Mo had swallowed 1000 chrysanthemum flowers and didn’t have any reaction on his body.

“Is it a failure?” Li Ruolan sighed. “It seems that it doesn’t work.”

“Could it be that you didn’t eat enough?” Mei Ziyu analyzed.

This was like how it was for some medicinal herbs. If the amount wasn’t enough, there wouldn’t be any effect.

“I think that’s the case.”

Sun Mo said this and then looked toward the little sunny egg. “Bring a beehive over.”

“Let me go!”

Jiang Leng went off and returned rapidly.

Sun Mo cut open the beehive and then drank the honey inside directly. He drank a total of 500 grams.

Thankfully, this beehive was big. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough honey.

Sun Mo then looked at his pocket watch and started waiting.

This time around, after merely three minutes, Sun Mo’s vision went through some changes. The golden flower field was still a flower field, but the looks of the chrysanthemum flowers changed. They had turned purple.

A thin fog permeated above the flower field.

He then looked at his students. Their skin looked green, their eyes a little bloodshot. There were even some parts of their skin that had purple spots appearing on it.

“Hurry up and go drink honey.”

Sun Mo felt great lingering fear. If he had discovered this a little later, everyone would have turned into corpses and become fertilizer to this flower field.

It was ascertained that the nectar was the antidote, but the required amount was quite a lot.

A few minutes later, the students’ surprised cries rang out.

They had also noticed each other’s horrible plights.

Sun Mo observed a little. Xuanyuan Po was the first to break out from the illusionary realm, followed by Xianyu Wei. Lu Zhiruo was the last, but the symptoms on her body were lighter.

This showed that Xuanyuan Po’s physique was the best.

“Thank god.”

Li Ruolan felt very thankful. “If it wasn’t for you, we would have been dead this time around.”

The students nodded and then contributed another wave of favorable impression points.

“What kind of plant is this?”

Li Ziqi felt curious.

“I don’t know.”

Sun Mo shook his head. As expected, the Darkness Continent was really mysterious. The Darkness Continent Great Plants Encyclopedia he had gotten from the system had recorded several thousand types of plants, with quite a number of them being valuable and rare. However, this flower was still not on the list.

“Who cares what kind of plant this is? Anyway, with Teacher around, we manage to resolve this problem very quickly.”

Lu Zhiruo felt that her teacher was very amazing.

“That’s right.”

Xianyu Wei nodded.

Was this the power of intelligence?

It was too cool.

Under such a situation, even if a great swordsman or a blade saint were to come, they’d find themselves at a loss.

Xianyu Wei suddenly didn’t feel like practicing fist techniques anymore. She wanted to learn this kind of wisdom and use it to kill. It’d definitely be very cool.

“This is just a piece of dead land!”

Li Ziqi felt emotional.

After breaking out from the illusionary realm, everyone saw the real flower field. Other than the few bees and butterflies, there weren’t any other living animals to be seen.

All of them were dead, decorated amidst the flower fields. Those butterflies landed on the rotting corpses, looking like corpse flowers.

“There should be heavenly and earthly treasures in a place like this, right?”

Ying Baiwu was raring to try.

Swoosh!

Everyone looked over.

Even if there was a secret treasure in this place, they’d definitely have to risk their lives in order to get it. It was better to forget it.

“I’ll send spiritual beasts out to search!”

Sun Mo called the Pharaoh back and then summoned out the damn bird who only knew to drink wine. He made them chug down 500 grams of honey before letting them set off.

The damn bird couldn’t be bothered to move and was kicked by Sun Mo.

“Hurry up and go!”

Sun Mo urged and then asked everyone’s opinion, “Shall we set an ambush for that enemy?”

“Of course!”

Tantai Yutang had always been up to avenge himself.

“They might get killed by the flower field before we could make a move. If that were to happen, we could just pick up the spoils.”

Lu Zhiruo clapped her small hands. “Perfect.”
