Dragon Soul Grass is a unique herb that can help improve and stabilize a cultivator's soul.
It was also a core ingredient for any soul-related pills but due to the scarcity of such herb, the market was always in demand without any supplies to support it.
Hence, Yang Wei was extremely blissful to obtain such a treasure for merely scouting around.
"1,000 years old Dragon Soul Grass… Jing Feng must be jealous of me now." Yang Wei grinned from ear to ear as he could imagine Elder Jing's reaction when he talked about his fruitful encounter.
Yang Wei then burnt the corpse down into ashes, leaving absolutely zero traces of anyone laying here before.
Yang Wei proceeded to spend the next few minutes creating some artificial scenes to trick others before continuing advancing.
He was excited to see more corpses with their storage ring intact. 'May heaven bless me.'
Sometime later, Yang Wei halted his movement as he curled his lips upward and glanced toward his left side.
Toward his left side, there was a body lying above a tree branch and Yang Wei was surprised by the facial expression of the corpse.
There was a clear vivid horror expression on his face, almost like he couldn't believe the scene in front of him before his death.
"What's wrong with them?" Yang Wei muttered as he wondered what happened in the fight.
Since they had provoked the Tornado White Tiger first, they should have known about its capability and prowess so there shouldn't be any surprise or terrified look on their face.
However, this was the second corpse that Yang Wei encountered that held a similar expression.
Yang Wei decided to take a few moments to investigate the corpse and used his spiritual perception to sense if there were any abnormalities.
Yang Wei kicked the ground softly to leap up to the massive tree branch and began investigating.
'Hmm, the claws mark is clear enough that it's the cause of death. But why would he be terrified about a claw strike?' Yang Wei wondered silently as he coated his hand with alchemy flame.
Afterward, he flipped the corpse over, making sure that there wasn't any skin contact.
Yang Wei didn't want to accidentally get himself infected with some unknown element while touching the corpse.
As the corpse flipped over, Yang Wei glanced the body up and down.
"Nothing unusual in the back either." Yang Wei muttered in a low voice.
Seeing how there were no external wounds, Yang Wei decided to use his Soul Force to pierce deep into the corpse's core.
With a dim light blinking at the tip of Yang Wei's finger, he flicked it and pierced deep inside the corpse.
Closing his eyes, Yang Wei turned solemn as he concentrated the internal wounds of the corpse.
If there was indeed something dangerous that got into his core, Yang Wei would rethink his decision on whether or not to explore further inside the Misty Forest.
Sometime later, Yang Wei noticed a black insect crawling around the corpse's spiritual core.
As Yang Wei's soul force approached closer, the black insect suddenly stopped its movement.
A dark gloomy aura soon surrounded itself and Yang Wei narrowed his eyes as he quickly retracted his soul force.
Alas, the black insect refused to let Yang Wei leave peacefully as it held a ferocious gaze and chased after Yang Wei's soul force.
Yang Wei snorted as he exuded his cold aura as well, knocking the black insect backward. Yang Wei then shot out multiple spiritual qi at it, causing the black insect to dodge around and delay his movement.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei retreated successfully as he began panting heavily.
"What is that black insect?" Yang Wei mumbled as he felt his spiritual qi depleting rapidly just from being near its presence.
Right when Yang Wei thought he was safe and sound, the black insect suddenly popped out from the corpse.
Yang Wei's eyes widened in surprise. "Persistent bastard!" Yang Wei scoffed as he kicked the ground to push himself backward.
Afterward, Yang Wei retrieved his Lightsbane and called out Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei appeared instantly as it showed an intense killing intent toward the black insect.
The killing intent emitted from Xiao Wei shocked Yang Wei as this was the first time Xiao Wei was acting unusually cold and ferocious.
"Xiao Wei, be careful of the black insect." Yang Wei warned as he stood in his fighting stance.
The black insect made a loud screeching noise, causing an eardrum on Yang Wei's ear as he flinched slightly.
The black insect then propelled itself toward Yang Wei. Xiao Wei reacted swiftly as he confronted the black insect face on.
BOOOM!
A loud sensation echoed through the forest and the fluctuation between the space started shaking with numerous spiritual qi scattering everywhere.
Yang Wei didn't dare to stay idle as he activated the inscription symbol in the Lightsbane.
Flames soon coated the Lightsbane as Yang Wei thrust forward, striking the black insect.
The black insect felt the full brunt of the Lightsbane as it was sent flying away and crashed into a nearby tree bark.
However, Yang Wei didn't relax his guard as he continued to send out multiple thrusts toward the black insect.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wei flicked himself, and a slash of spiritual qi emitted from it.
A wave of spiritual qi collided and created a slight earthquake on the ground.
Dust started to appear as the force created by Yang Wei and Xiao Wei was too strong.
Yang Wei knitted his brows as he swung his Lightsbane around, shoving the dust away so that his vision remained clear on what's happening.
A few moments later, the black insect resurfaces from the soil. It remained unscathed despite the numerous attacks sent by Xiao Wei and Yang Wei.
"Not good…" Yang Wei mumbled as he realized his spiritual qi had been depleted rapidly whereas the black insect seemed to have gotten stronger.
Yang Wei quickly swallowed a pill to recuperate the loss of his spiritual qi as he clutched onto the Lightsbane tightly.
