"Miss Yue might not know this, but the name of this herb is Spirit Returning Grass. It's the most important herb in the production of the Spirit Returning Pill." The Demon Shadow said.
"Oh!" Yue Liusu replied thoughtfully. She didn't really understand how to use the Soul Replenishing Pill, but she could understand its literal meaning.
The quality of pill decided everything. The Soul-Returning Pill was one of the hardest things to refine out of the pill, so other than high level pill masters and alchemists, Yue Liusu really couldn't think of anyone else who had the ability to try refining the Soul-Returning Pill.
Yue Liusu squatted at the side, and casually picked up a stalk to carefully examine it, it was very easy to distinguish, with thick leaves, red veins and so on. Even the root hair was only a long strand, and when held in hand, one could still smell the moist air, and the place where it grew was extremely special.
"From now on, this thing will be of use. Once you become an alchemist, come here and collect a few stalks of it. Keep them as backup." Through his Spiritual Sense, Shen Jueming communicated with Yue Liusu.
"Oh." Yue Liusu's answer was still neither too harsh nor too indifferent. Since Shen Jueming had requested for it, then there must definitely be a reason behind it.
"Let's go." The Demon Shadow put away the few stalks of Soul-Returning Grass. At this moment, the ropes hanging on the cliff had already been put away, and they started to move towards another direction.
Since they were heading in the opposite direction, they estimated that it would take at least two hours to reach the place. It was already close to the afternoon, but they didn't even have time to eat lunch to gather the Spirit Returning Herbs, so the ten of them split up a few icy-cold steamed buns and gnawed on them as they walked.
"Miss Yue, do you want one?" Beside him, Demon Ke smiled and asked, taking out a steamed bun, he handed it over to Yue Liusu. Because of his frail body, he was in charge of food and medicine for the entire Mercenary Group.
Yue Liusu smiled and expressed his thanks, "Thank you. Since it's like this, I won't be polite."
"You're welcome."
On the way, although Yue Liusu slowly chewed on a bun, her sharp eyes still did not stop. Since it was the demonic beast Forest, then there must be a lot of carnivorous animals, and she was in a hurry to enter the demonic beast Forest this time.
Two hours wasn't long, nor was it short. By the time they reached their destination, three minutes had already passed.
The closer they got to the place they were going, the more demonic beast appeared around them. Some of them even strutted out boldly towards them, and some of them even stood in front of them, watching them leave with extreme calmness.
"The demonic beast s here have the most different types of Profound Sky Continent. As for the Thorny Forest outside the Imperial City, the demonic beast s that travel there can't compare to the ones here, and maybe some people think that the demonic beast s that prick the forest are the most savage ones, the truth is that the demonic beast s are actually not the same. The demonic beast Forest is so huge, even our Phantom Shadow Mercenary Group has not been through the entire forest for ten years."
Beside Yue Liusu, the demonic shadow explained in detail.
"Eh?" Yue Liusu was a little confused. The demonic beast in the Thorny Forest was not as violent as the demonic beast in the demonic beast Forest? That was what she had just heard.
"It's said that the Thorny Forest is only the tip of the iceberg that was separated out from the demonic beast forest. As for why, it's unclear. From the moment Profound Sky Continent appeared, the Thorny Forest had already existed, or it could be said that the demonic beast Forest had existed even earlier than the Imperial City."
The Phantom Demon laughed in a rough manner, carrying a sharp large blade on his shoulder. Although it looked somewhat ferocious, one could see the gentleness in its clear eyes.
Yue Liusu laughed and asked: "Since there are so many kinds of demonic beast in the demonic beast Forest, why didn't you guys directly hunt them down and sell them for a good price?
She did not understand, it was true that the demonic beast Forest was dangerous, but just now, the cliff face was covered in moss. To her, all of the missions the Demon Shadow Mercenary Group had accepted were especially dangerous.
"Miss Yue, what is the morale of this devil's entire Mercenary Group?" The demonic shadow asked with a smile.
Only then did Yue Liusu begin to carefully size up all the members present. It was only then that he noticed that in front of the Demon Shadow, everyone's bodies were weak, especially Demon Ke.
"See the problem? My little brother Mo Ke, and all of the members of Mercenary Group are very … "The Mercenary Group was similar to what you said at the beginning, hunting demonic beast s all day long. The higher the level, the smoother it is and the more valuable it is. But this is still a huge challenge for us."
"Later on, we were still heavily injured because of greed. At that time, there were more than twenty people in the entire team, and because of that battle, there were only a dozen or so people left. Those brothers with more serious injuries died because they could not get the appropriate treatment."
"In my entire life, I, the Phantom Shadow, have let them down and learned my lesson. I must lead them to survive. Even if it is some dangerous missions, it is best to avoid letting them come into contact with them."
"So that's how it is." Yue Liusu sighed. In front of her, the image of the devil shadow had become even more lofty in her heart.
When they were almost there, everyone was a little out of strength.
"Captain, why don't we find a place to rest today and go tomorrow?" Just as they were about to arrive, Yue Liusu made a suggestion. In front of her eyes, she saw several teammates who already had insufficient stamina.
They had travelled for a long time, and had not been able to get a good amount of stamina to replenish during their journey, which made the already frail Mercenary Group even more unbearable for them.
"However, the Phantom Demon took the girl's order. How can he take the money …" The demonic shadow was in a dilemma.
Yue Liusu shook his head, "I originally came here with the Guild Leader to gain some knowledge, and did not have to travel in the demonic beast Forest, nor did I want the Guild Leader to be affected by the entire Mercenary Group just because of me. Like this, Liusu felt very bad, and decided to just treat it as an entertainment.
Yue Liusu knew that their previous route had not been like this at all. It was only because they had accepted her orders that they wanted to finish their mission ahead of time and bring her around the demonic beast Forest.
On this trip to the demonic beast Forest, they had only taken on three missions: first, to collect the Spirit Returning Grass, second, to catch a small-scaled demonic beast. It would be best if they had just broken out of its shell and used it as a taming tool, and third, to capture her.
As for hunting demonic beast, I just want to get some foreign goods. If their quality is not good, I can give some warmth to everyone in Mercenary Group.
The demonic beast they were hunting down was not of a high level, and was also the most suitable to be used as mink skin to keep warm. It was only because the living quarters of these demonic beast were not too fixed that they were prepared to come this time after finding out the tracks of the demonic beast.
"If that's the case, then this …" The Phantom Demon was in a difficult position, the route they had decided on, they had also received the commission from Yue Liusu, if they suddenly changed their route, then it would be unfair to Yue Liusu.
