[Icy Fiery Spiritual Butterfly: Four Stars
Beast Level: Silver (High)
Abilities: Water Manipulation, Fire Manipulation, Icy Fiery Spiritual Butterfly, Spiritual Butterfly Dancing Technique
Evolution Path 1: Extreme Fiery Spiritual Butterfly
Evolution Path 2: Extreme Icy Spiritual Butterfly]
Ye Xuan identified the attributes of Tang Mengxia’s flying beast on their way to Bujin Mountain.
This Icy Fiery Spiritual Butterfly was not the strongest beast Tang Mengxia had, but its attributes were not bad.
As a four-star Silver-level beast, it also had the potential to achieve the Diamond level in the future.
Ye Xuan looked at the beast Huo Tong was mounting after identifying the Icy Fiery Spiritual Butterfly attributes.
Tang Mengxia’s Icy Fiery Spiritual Butterfly was half flame red and half-ice blue. It looked super beautiful. In comparison, Huo Tong’s flying beast was a green flying dragon with extremely bumpy skin, with countless lumps and holes on it.
It was much uglier than the Icy Fiery Spiritual Butterfly.
[Green Skinned Flying Dragon (Sub-dragon Type): Three Stars
Beast Level: Silver (Intermediate)
Abilities: Sub-dragon Stamina, Sub-dragon Resistance, Venom Spurting, Dragon Flying in Sky (Burst Skill)]
It was not hard to imagine Huo Tong probably contracted with the Green Skinned Flying Dragon when he was on the Dark Iron level.
This Green Skinned Flying Dragon should defeat most of the beasts on the same level when it was on the Dark Iron level. However, it had become quite average after dropping two stars because of the level-up to the Silver level.
Ye Xuan sent his consciousness into the Tidal Treasure Snail’s Real-Time Map after identifying the attributes of both of his two companions’ flying beasts.
“Go!”
However, an idea occurred to him when he had thrown a few glances at the map. He called out the Tidal Treasure Snail’s clone and two Treasure Snail Images immediately.
After having called them out, he sent the three Tidal Treasure Snails into three different directions.
He did not call the Tidal Treasure Snail itself out this time.
The Tidal Treasure Snail was at a critical moment in the process of its level-up.
Ye Xuan would let it stay in its World of Nothingness to cultivate unless some emergency came up.
He would not call it out until it achieved the Silver level.
“Ye Xuan, what are you doing?”
Seeing Ye Xuan sending three Tidal Treasure Snails out, Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong were very curious.
“Don’t you always want to know how I sought treasures last time? Well, the answer is them. I counted on them.”
Ye Xuan smiled.
However, he did not go into detail to explain how Tidal Treasure Snails sought treasures for him.
Then, all of a sudden, his eyes lit up not long after he had sent the three Tidal Treasure Snails out.
He told Lil Wan to take him to a place about three thousand feet away.
He let Lil Wan take him to fly this time.
He did not use the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings.
Because the level of the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings was too low in such circumstances.
They would not be able to catch up with Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong’s flying beasts.
So, he would rather let them keep cultivating.
They would not be able to have their highlight moment even if they achieved the Silver level.
If they wanted to return to their former glory in the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm and kill around for Ye Xuan like that again, they probably had to wait until they achieved the Gold level.
“What is that?”
Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong were completely convinced by Ye Xuan, especially by the method he used to seek treasures.
Therefore, no matter where Ye Xuan took them, they would follow him and would never cast any doubt on him.
Following Ye Xuan, they had flown about a mile when they arrived at a hill.
Then they saw something peculiar.
A big group of demons was hopping on the hill where Ye Xuan had brought them. They were made of red earth. Each of them was about twenty or thirty centimeters tall.
They seemed to be in the middle of some ceremony.
And the dead body of a red leopard of some unknown species was lying on the ground at the center of them.
There was a hole on the head of the dead body, and something seemed to be hiding there.
“I hope you don’t mind. I have never seen this. So, I am curious.”
Ye Xuan smiled when he had found Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong were looking at him in surprise.
Then he identified those demons’ attributes, which seemed to be made of earth but had black and red flames burning on them.
[Scorched Earth Demon: One Star
Beast Level: Apprentice (Low)
Abilities: Low-Level Demon Fire, Earth Reshaping, Offering to the Evil God
(Note: These are a group of low-level little demons that have developed some spiritual intellect under the effect of Flame of Demon. These little demons like fire. They enjoy slaughtering lives weaker than them and hiding treasures with the Flame element that they have collected in the head of the dead bodies of other lives. Then they will make offerings to the paramount evil god that they were imprinted onto at birth.)
Evolution Path: Scorched Earth Great Demon]
“What a big world. There are all kinds of lives in this world.”
Gazing at those Scorched Earth Demons from far away, Ye Xuan was astonished.
He was surprised that those little demons had some connection with some evil god, although they were not strong.
However, that was all.
He also knew something about the so-called evil god.
He knew that was actually some powerful evil lives living behind the space cracks of this world.
Nevertheless, maybe because of some restriction or some other unknown reasons.
None of such over-powerful lives had ever shown up in the world where Ye Xuan was living.
Ye Xuan suddenly had an idea. He extended his hand to create a wisp of black and red Calamity Force of Wind and Fire.
“Now that the Wind-Speed Lamb Headed Camel is not here, I will use you to practice.”
Whoosh!
As he waved his hand, the Calamity Force of Wind and Fire in his hand soared with the wind.
Soon, it turned into a violently burning black and red flame carrying the Calamity Force of Wind. Then the flame swept over towards the thirty or forty Scorched Earth Demons on the hill far away.
“Boo-hoo!”
The Scorched Earth Demons hopping on the hill were dumbfounded at that sight.
However, they had been swallowed by the flame before they could make any reaction.
Crack! Crack!
In a second, when the fire had been gone, the Scorched Earth Demons were gone, too. There was no Scorched Earth Demon at all in the whole area.
Except for the piles of shapeless black ashes on the ground.
Whoosh!
Next, a beam of red light flew out of the head of the red leopard that the Scorched Earth Demons had surrounded. It stopped in Ye Xuan’s hand.
“Let’s go.”
Ye Xuan reached out to catch the beam of red light. He took a look at the light in his hand and then led Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong to fly to the deep area of Bujin Mountain.
What happened?
Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong hurried to follow Ye Xuan at the sight of that.
They had no idea what had happened. Did Ye Xuan already find a treasure?
They thought Ye Xuan had told them he had never seen any Scorched Earth Demons before, so he had approached to see what they were like.
However, Ye Xuan was too cunning.
He pulled a fast one on them.
“Ye Xuan, is that a Silver-level Fire Spiritual Stone in your hand?”
Swallowing her saliva, Tang Mengxia asked after taking a look at the red stone Ye Xuan played with when she had caught up with him.
In fact, Silver-level Fire Spiritual Stones were not any precious evolutionary resources.
However, they had just entered the Bujin Mountain area, and Ye Xuan had already found something.
“I guess so.”
Ye Xuan gave the red stone in his hand a swing before the two. Then shaking his head, he said, “I don’t know treasures very well, but this is doubtless a Silver-level evolutionary resource.”
Then he put the stone away for the moment.
Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong were struck dumb by Ye Xuan’s reply.
They instantly realized that this time, they had found the best teammate they could find to travel within the Bujin Mountain area.
Even if Ye Xuan only gave them a small share when the trip was over, their gains from this trip to Bujin Mountain probably would still be more than others’.
Shriek!
When Ye Xuan exerted the Calamity Force of Wind and Fire to kill the Scorched Earth Demons group and collected the Fire Spiritual Stone, they had used it as an offering.
A shriek that sounded like metal came from somewhere deep in the Bujin Mountain area.
Ye Xuan and the other two instantly perceived something. They lifted their heads to look into the distance. However, they did not see anything.
“Let’s keep going.”
Ye Xuan raised his eyebrow.
He ignored the shriek of some unknown bird.
That bird shriek was deafening. It might be from some species that was dreadfully powerful.
However, if such a species intended to do anything to them, Wang Tianshan and other Challenger-level Beast Tamers would be the ones to deal with it.
So the three did not stop. Instead, they kept flying into the deep area of Bujin Mountain.
On their way, if Ye Xuan found some treasure through the three Tidal Treasure Snails.
And it was not difficult to get.
He would let the Tidal Treasure Snails go and get it themselves.
If it were difficult to get, he would go to where the treasure was with Tang Mengxia and Huo Tong in person.
However, if it were too difficult to get, he would ignore it.
Especially the treasures guarded by monsters on the Gold level.
He would touch none of them.
Wang Tianshan had warned them before they came into the Bujin Mountain area.
According to him, monsters on and above the Gold level in Bujin Mountain would not attack them as long as they did not provoke those monsters.
However, if they chose to court death, it would be a different story.
As a result, Ye Xuan would never do such a stupid thing unless he became dumb all of a sudden.
“Ye Xuan, you are so strong. Unbelievable.”
About more than half an hour later, Tang Mengxia saw Ye Xuan extend his hand, seemingly unintentionally, when passing by a peak. In this way, he collected the spiritual herbs growing under a rock. She was rendered speechless instantly.
Are you seeking treasures, or are you picking treasures up?
As to Huo Tong, he had been used to things like that.
He always felt he and Ye Xuan did not belong to the same species.
If he were a three-dimensional species, Ye Xuan would be a four-dimensional or even a five-dimensional one.
“It is pure luck. It is only because I contracted with a beast that can seek treasures.”
“In fact, there are quite a few beasts that can seek treasures in this world. You can try to find some, too, when we get out of here.”
Ye Xuan was feeling a little complacent.
However, he pretended he was super cool.
He was completely behaving like a hero in front of Tang Mengxia.
Shriek!
However, while they were talking, a huge red bird whose wingspan was more than six hundred feet suddenly flew over from far away. Its giant body instantly shaded them as it flew by.
It only took the giant red bird a second to fly over them.
