Ye Feixue’s heart palpitated. She was so close to death.
“For the time being, we’re safe,” Lu Xuanji said. “I was only trying. I didn’t expect to succeed.”
“Why is that?” Ye Feixue asked.
“The White Tiger has the light attribute, but the Netherworld Grass has the darkness attribute. If we smear the juice of the Netherworld Grass on our bodies, it would be like having some feces on our bodies. The White Tiger was disgusted by the smell and immediately gave up on eating us.”
This was Lu Xuanji’s guess.
In the animal world, all animals had a way of surviving. He remembered that in his previous life, when some animals encountered danger, they would hide in the animal feces. When those natural enemies saw this scene, they immediately gave up on hunting.
He took out a simple map and began to measure the distance. The conclusion was that they could not continue forward. As they were approaching the mixed region, the Demon Beast bloodline was of a higher level and the danger had increased.
“Let’s go.” Lu Xuanji started to return, but as he walked, he gradually realized that he was lost.
There was a mistake in the direction.
In the vast mountains, it was almost normal to get lost with a simple map.
The only fortunate thing was that with a simple compass, they could shift their direction, and it would be generally correct. At least, they would not accidentally walk and enter the mixed region.
They walked for three days, and they were still in the mountains.
Boom boom boom.
At this moment, Lu Xuanji felt the spiritual energy fluctuating violently. There were spells clashing, and they felt waves of destructive power coming from up ahead.
“Not good, there are top-tier experts fighting.”
Lu Xuanji pulled Ye Feixue to hide behind a rock and waited nervously.
Boom boom boom!
The collision of spells continued, and the power of the collision came wave after wave. A flaming giant bird and a human cultivator stood in the air thousands of meters above them, clashing against each other.
It was as if mini nuclear bombs were clashing against each other, and destructive ripples were clashing against each other.
They were about ten miles away from here, and the destructive ripples spread through the ground. The trees on the ground fell, and dirt flew everywhere. Many Demon Beasts that did not have time to run away turned into meat paste on the spot.
Countless Demon Beasts were running. Some were Qi Refinement, and some were Foundation Establishment Demon Beasts. They ran in groups to avoid the aftermath of the battle.
He also wanted to run, but when he saw the Demon Beasts running around, he gave up.
Boom boom boom.
The battle in the sky continued. The waves of destruction came one after another. It was endless, like the surging tide, like the eruption of a mountain flood, triggering the violent fluctuations of the spiritual energy within a radius of ten miles, and causing the weather to change.
The high-level cultivators were fighting, and the battle scene was exceptionally terrifying and shocking.
In the fierce battle, the battlefield of both sides was moving, and after a moment, the battlefield moved to 100 miles away and disappeared.
“How strong are they?” Ye Feixue’s eyes flashed with longing.
“They are Golden Core stage cultivators. In terms of cultivation, we are too far away from them,” Lu Xuanji said with a slight sigh.
They were very strong. As for how strong they were, it was unknown.
In the eyes of an ant, a wolf and a tiger were equally strong. They could not tell the difference between the two.
“A man should be like this!” Lu Xuanji’s eyes flashed with determination.
He continued to walk out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
After about three days, he finally walked out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. However, he deviated from his position and was 1,000 miles away from the Wu Clan Market.
When they finally reached the Wu Clan Market, Lu Xuanji and Ye Feixue saw the stream of people coming in and out of the market city, and they looked at each other. There was a trace of joy and relief in each other’s eyes.
They had been traveling in the Hundred Thousand Mountains for two months and had often encountered danger. Even their sleep was not stable. Now that they were here, they could finally sleep peacefully.
When they arrived at the entrance of the market square, Lu Xuanji took out his token. The guard at the entrance looked at the token and nodded.
Lu Xuanji and Ye Feixue entered the market square.
At this moment, a terrifying aura was emitted from the void. Lu Xuanji looked up and saw a woman dressed in white coming down from the void. Her body exuded elegance and a golden aura, it was sharp and piercing.
With just a glance, Lu Xuanji’s heart was palpitating. He immediately felt amazed and could not take his eyes off her.
Many itinerant cultivators felt their hearts palpitate as well. Even the female cultivators were infatuated.
Then, the woman in white exuded sword intent. Immediately, the itinerant cultivators present felt a slight pain in their eyes and subconsciously looked away.
“This is a sword cultivator. Her attacks are swift and fierce!” Lu Xuanji said.
To become a sword cultivator, one must have a Gold Spiritual Root, and one must comprehend sword intent in the Qi Refinement stage. Sword intent would be used as a foundation to step into the Foundation Establishment stage.
A sword cultivator’s attack power was invincible compared to other cultivators in the same stage.
Then, a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Wu Clan appeared. He bent down and said respectfully, “Junior Wu Quan pays respects to Matriarch Jinxi. Why are you here in the Wu Clan Market?”
“It’s just business,” Jinxi said.
“Matriarch, let’s talk inside,” Wu Quan said respectfully. He invited this Patriarch to the Immortal’s Cave and served her with spirit tea.
…
“Brother, she’s really beautiful.” A trace of longing flashed through Ye Feixue’s eyes.
Lu Xuanji said, “You’re just lusting after her body. You’re cheap.”
Ye Feixue giggled.
When they reached the cave, they opened their storage bags and counted their harvest.
There were spirit herbs and Demon Beast carcasses. Some Qi Refinement stage Demon Beast carcasses only cost one or two spirit stones at most. Some spirit herbs that were less than 100 years old cost three to five spirit stones. The most precious thing was still the Netherworld Cat’s corpse. Although its combat strength was a bit weak, it was still a Foundation Establishment Demon Beast.
The corpse of a Foundation Establishment Demon Beast was very useful. The Netherworld Grass in the box was also very expensive.
After tidying up his harvest, Lu Xuanji only brought a small portion of the items to the Wu Clan’s Shop to sell.
“This is Netherworld Grass.”
They placed one item after another on the floor of the store. At first, Wu Yueqin’s expression was calm, but when she saw the three Netherworld Grass, her expression changed.
The three Netherworld Grass were all 500 years old, and their medicinal strength was rich. Their quality was excellent.
Wu Yueqin looked at the three Netherworld Grass, and her eyes flashed with a trace of longing. The Netherworld Grass were the main ingredients for refining the Netherworld Pill. Consuming the Netherworld Pill could increase a cultivator’s mental strength, and it could be considered a good supplementary medicinal pill.

Unfortunately, the Netherworld Grass only grew in harsh living environments. Not only did they need places with rich spiritual energy, but they also needed to grow in dark and damp valleys.
Only a few clans planted the Netherworld Grass in some special areas, and the amount was limited.
There were very few wild Netherworld Grass, especially the ones that were 500 years old.
Also, Netherworld Cats were often found at the places where the Netherworld Grass grew. Netherworld Cats were good at hiding and ambushing. Even Foundation establishment cultivators died there.
However, this Lu Clan cultivator was very lucky. He actually picked three wild Netherworld Grass..
