Yu Renjie said, "Yunxuan, I heard that you came to this forest to find the third-tier immortal fruit, the Fire Dragon Fruit. There must be lava lizards guarding the Fire Dragon Fruit tree. To help you, I specially borrowed the sect's treasure, the Snow Drinking Mad Blade, from the sect. This blade is an earth-rank weapon, extremely cold, and is the nemesis of those lava lizards."
Fu Yunxuan said calmly, "I did come here for the dragon fruit, but I don't need your help. Without your Snow Drinking Mad Blade, do you think my Obsidian Blade of Departure can't kill that magma lizard?"
As soon as Fu Yunxuan said this, her aura surged, and the Black Obsidian Fire Sword at her waist emitted a humming sound, as if it were thirsting for blood and about to be drawn from its sheath.
Lin Caogen looked at the beautiful woman in black, Fu Yunxuan, and then noticed that the black sword at her waist was probably also an Earth-rank weapon. It is said that the price of Earth-rank weapons is often around several billion Immortal Yuan Coins. This Fu Yunxuan is not only a fifth-level Core Formation cultivator, but also equipped with such an expensive Earth-rank weapon. Her strength is probably comparable to some unarmed seventh-level Core Formation elders.
Yu Renjie laughed and said, "Yunxuan, who in the entire Three Rings Continent doesn't know your strength? I'm just bringing my junior brothers here as backup! Let's team up and go into the forest together! More people means more things to do, and we'll have more help if we encounter danger."
Fu Yunxuan knew that Yu Renjie was right, and said calmly, "Do as you please."
Yu Renjie was overjoyed. He glanced around at the disciples of Fanyin Valley, then his gaze settled on Lin Caogen and Du Yumei. He was completely puzzled, and then couldn't help but ask Fu Yunxuan, "Yunxuan, are these two junior brothers and sisters you brought practicing a technique to conceal their cultivation level? Why can't I tell their cultivation level? No matter how I look at them, they seem to be less than the first level of the Body Refinement stage."
Fu Yunxuan said calmly, "That's right, the two of them were beginners in the Body Refinement stage."
Upon hearing this, Yu Renjie nearly fell to the ground.
He said speechlessly, "Yunxuan, we're going deep into this dense forest to kill third-tier immortal beasts. We're both at the Core Formation stage, what are you doing bringing two mortals who aren't even at the Body Refinement stage with you?"
Fu Yunxuan said, "The two of them are disciples of the Wuwu Sect. They got separated from their senior brother. I felt a connection with them, so I took them with me. Now that the Demonic Sect is rampant, what if we encounter someone from the Demonic Sect and fall into the demonic path? You don't need to worry about this! After we get the Fire Dragon Fruit, I will return to the Wuwu Sect with Song Zhe and the other two."
Upon hearing this, Yu Renjie was completely impressed and bowed down in admiration.
He laughed and said, "Yunxuan is indeed kind-hearted. Alright, alright! Whatever you say! Let's go then!"
Fu Yunxuan said to one of her junior brothers, Jiang Boyue, "Jiang Boyue, you take Lin Caogen, and I'll take Du Yumei!"
After saying that, Fu Yunxuan grabbed Du Yumei's arm, then transformed her immortal energy into wings and launched herself into the sky.
Lin Caogen was also grabbed and flown into the air.
Looking down into the Misty Forest, Lin Caogen was filled with emotion. He had just escaped by killing three Core Formation stage experts yesterday, and yet, in just one day, he had flown in again with a group of Core Formation stage cultivators.
Moreover, this time they were heading to the heart of the Misty Forest. Yesterday, they were only on the outskirts of the Misty Forest.
This misty forest is vast; Lin Caogen roughly estimated its size to be about the same as Russia on Earth. Core Formation stage cultivators can fly extremely fast; at least for now, Jiang Boyue and his companion are flying faster than a fighter jet.
After flying for about four or five hours, the group arrived at the deepest part of the Misty Forest.
Lin Caogen felt that the deepest part of the misty forest was full of immortal energy, making it a good place for cultivation.
Looking down, Fu Yunxuan keenly sensed the abundance of fire element below, and she suspected that the dragon fruit she needed was located there.
She led the way to land, and the nineteen people formed a circle deep in the forest.
Fu Yunxuan said, "The dragon fruit tree is no more than three meters tall, and it must be guarded by ferocious beasts. This misty forest is dense with tall trees, so we can't find the exact location of the fruit tree from the air. Since all seventeen of us are at the Core Formation stage, we'll use this as the center and split up to search outwards. Weaker disciples can form groups of two or three. Once we find the dragon fruit tree, we'll fire a signal arrow, and everyone who sees the signal arrow should gather at the spot where it was fired!"
Yu Renjie said, "Yunxuan, why don't we team up? That way we can look out for each other!"
Fu Yunxuan said, "No need! I'll go with this little girl! Jiang Boyue, take good care of this disciple of the Wuwei Sect. Let's set off now."
Fu Yunxuan is decisive and efficient; she had arranged and deployed everything in a short time.
Du Yumei looked at Lin Caogen with some reluctance, but she also understood that in this misty forest, not to mention her and Lin Caogen, even Fu Yunxuan and the others could lose their lives at any time.
It is said that the peak third-tier immortal beasts deep within this misty forest are incredibly powerful, and none of the top sect leaders dare to venture into this depths alone.
Jiang Boyue led Lin Caogen southeast. Along the way, Lin Caogen watched as Jiang Boyue effortlessly slaughtered first and second-tier immortal beasts as if cutting melons and vegetables. Even when encountering early-stage third-tier immortal beasts, Jiang Boyue could resolve the battle in minutes without needing any support.
Jiang Boyue said to Lin Caogen, "Young brother, don't waste any of the immortal beasts I've killed along the way! I see you have a spatial ring (Lin Caogen carried one spatial ring, and hid the other two). Put everything you can in it. Especially the inner cores of some early-stage third-tier immortal beasts. They may be dispensable to me, but they will be of great benefit to you in the future."
Lin Caogen felt that the disciples of Fanyin Valley were all of excellent quality. The senior sister leading the group, Fu Yunxuan, was decisive and efficient, yet also had a compassionate heart. Her junior brother, Jiang Boyue, was generous and open-minded. This made Lin Caogen like these people from the bottom of his heart.
