My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant - Chapter 617: Guess
Chapter 617: Guess
Lou Mu Yan looked deeply into the distance. She found that not only were the two groups of people, who had entered earlier, powerful, but there were also several more powerful auras hidden deep in the forest.
Through cultivating these days, her cultivation stage had returned to the peak of Sword Deity, and the green sea of mist in her dan’tian was even more boundless.
Only when advancing to Core Elemental Realm and above in Guang’ling Realm would it trigger a Lightning Tribulation, so as long as she suppressed the aura of advancement from Sword Venerable to Sword Deity, others wouldn’t be able to detect it.
The spiritual force on Guang’ling World was very abundant, and it was even more dense in the depths of Qing’yuan Forest. She could advance to the Core Elemental Realm any time if she wanted.
It was just that she had always preferred to pursue the ultimate. Since it was a blessing in disguise that she obtained another chance to recondense her elemental core, then she’d definitely not let go of it.
What was more, she also obtained a pill formula from Jun Luo Chen that could help improve her elemental core and condense it to its best.
The group didn’t hesitate too much. Mercenaries had always had an adventurous spirit, so even if there were traces of many people ahead, they wouldn’t give up on this mission.
Passing through the canyon, ahead was a forest that had open space at intervals.
The attributes of the surrounding flowers and trees were different in colour, with red, green, yellow, blue, black, and the like, giving one a very eerie feeling.
“Have you been here before?” Lou Mu Yan asked, seeing the surprised expressions of Bu Zhan and Zhan Kuang.
Bu Zhan shrugged and said: “The summer every ten years is the propagation season for the Dragon Beard Herb, I couldn’t even enter here with my cultivation level ten years ago.”
If the Dragon Beard Herb propagated every summer, then it wouldn’t be so rare and expensive.
“The reason why I know the approximate location is because I bought a map for where the Dragon Beard Beasts roamed.” Zhan Kuang shook his head helplessly and said: “So I’m not familiar with this place either.”
Neither of them was familiar, not to mention anyone else.
“Show me the map you bought to me.” Lou Mu Yan said.
Zhan Kuang took out a jade slip and gave it to Lou Mu Yan, “I think some places on this map can overlap, but there are big differences in many places.”
“After ten years, there must be differences!” Bu Zhan rolled his eyes at him, “I thought you’d been here because of how you looked like you knew the way.”
“I was only in my teens ten years ago, I’d probably have died on the outskirts of Qing’yuan Forest before even entering here.” Zhan Kuang replied.
Even a decade later, without Lou Mu Yan’s help, they’d probably have become corpses now.
Lou Mu Yan scrutinised the map, and she found that this map should be a mixture of half-truths and half-fakes. The person who sold the map may know the approximate location of the Dragon Beard Beast, but he didn’t mention the weird forest before them.
Where the map ended was exactly where they were standing.
“Then what should we do?” Feng Seven looked at the weird forest and said: “Should we still enter?”
“Of course we will. It’d be a waste not to go in after we’ve arrived here.” Bu Zhan and the others were unwilling to give up.
“Everyone be careful of those brightly coloured flowers, plants, and trees. They’re poisonous, so don’t get it on yourselves.” Lou Mu Yan took out a bottle of Spiritual Cleansing Pills and distributed one to each of them: “This is a kind of antidote, take it in case.”
“Alright! Thank you, Mu Yan.”
The group of people walked cautiously, and from time to time, aggressive plants would suddenly appear from all around, but they were all killed by Bing Ji standing on Lou Mu Yan’s shoulder with a breath of flames.
Although protected by Bing Ji, but the others didn’t dare be careless. Here, it felt that as long as one wrong step was taken, the result would be death.
“Mo Yan, are there really Dragon Beard Beasts here?” Lou Mu Yan poked Mo Yan’s fleshy leg and said.
She remembered that the place where the Dragon Beard Beast lived should be a hill with relatively dense earth attribute aura. It felt very strange that it was filled with various mixed elements here.
Mo Yan’s full eyes were tinged with a helpless smile, “I’ve already found the traces of Dragon Beard Beasts, but there’s still half a day’s journey away.”
“Then do you know what this place is?” Lou Mu Yan felt that the knowledgeable Mo Yan should know.
“This kind of forest is called the Poisonous Miasma Forest. Plants with different elements growing together will disturb the spiritual force here. If you inhale too much spiritual force, you’ll be poisoned and die.”
Mo Yan paused, then said: “However, your Spiritual Cleansing Pill can detoxify the poison here, so it’s fine.”
“There should be some kind of spiritual item born in such a special place.” Lou Mu Yan said with bright eyes.
Mo Yan looked at her in amusement and replied: “Mm, there’s a fire volcano deep ahead of the Poisonous Miasma Forest and Pyrofluoritemight be born inside it.”
The Pyrofluroite and Obsidian Fluorite actually belonged to the same kind of spiritual item, but their elemental energy attributes were different. The Pyrofluorite contained a large amount of the fire element, and was the best Heaven Rank spiritual item for refining high-grade fire attribute magic tools.
“Not ‘might’, it’s ‘definite’.” Lou Mu Yan said firmly.
Mo Yan glanced at her and said: “That volcano has a force that automatically prevents all mental energy probing, and even I can’t find the Pyrofluorite because we’re still too far away, how can you be so sure?”
“Because of those two groups of people!” Lou Mu Yan said with a merry smile: “If they didn’t find a Heaven Rank spiritual item, then why would they dispatch so many experts here?”
Although there were quite a few Sword Masters at Core Elemental Realm in Guang’ling World, they could still be considered powerhouses, and they definitely could dominate in small, remote kingdoms or regions.
According to the map Leng Yi gave her, the vastness of Guang’ling World was no less than the Spiritual World she lived in during her previous life, so there were naturally no shortage of secret realms and various places rich in high-level resources.
Although a place like Qing’yuan Forest was a resource paradise for mercenaries, but the highest level of demonic beast among them was also at approximately Core Elemental Realm, which was still much inferior to those in many mysterious and unpredictable places.
Therefore, to be able to dispatch Core Elemental Realm powerhouses, then those two forces definitely must covet something big. The Dragon Beard Herb definitely wouldn’t have such a huge temptation, so it must be the Pyrofluroite.
She guessed that maybe these two forces were the first to arrive, and maybe there’d be others coming later.
“Your analysis should be correct. Those two groups of people were indeed travelling in the direction of the active volcano.” Mo Yan said.
“We’re really lucky.” Lou Mu Yan chuckled: “My strongest comprehension is in the fire elemental energy attribute among my eight elemental energy attributes, but I’m just missing a handy natal magic tool. This time, it’s a huge opportunity.”
Mo Yan smiled softly. He found that this woman’s eyes would light up so brightly as soon as treasures were mentioned.
“Why don’t you first find the Dragon Beard Herb and refine the pill to reach Core Elemental Realm before going there?”
Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at him annoyed: “By the time I breakthrough to Core Elemental Realm, I’d long be late.”
It didn’t take long to breakthrough to the realm, but the time it took to condense the best elemental core wasn’t something that could be measured.
“By the way, you disappeared for a few days before, did you advance to Saint Tier?”
Lou Mu Yan looked at Mo Yan jokingly and continued: “It’s not that you’re afraid that we’ll force you to transform into human form after you reach Saint Tier, so you’re hiding it, are you?”
After Mo Yan disappeared for a few days and returned, she found that his aura wasn’t right. Although he restrained himself, but as her natal contract beast, he couldn’t hide the demonic energy in his body that was several times denser.
Of course, Mo Yan wouldn’t hide it from her on purpose.
Mo Yan’s body stiffened, and he snorted aloofly: “Guess!”
