Finally, regarding the contribution of the mission, Feng Xiaoyun and the other two directly handed it over to Yang Qi, asking him to complete the mission and gain contribution to the sect. Yang Qi offered to compensate everyone, but was rejected by the three.
According to Feng Xiaoyun and the other two, if it weren't for Yang Qi, the three of them would probably have died. Wu Yuan was also killed by Yang Qi. They had already distributed the spoils, so naturally they could not ask for mission contributions anymore.
Seeing the three people's persistent refusal, Yang Qi had to give up this plan. He immediately collected the corpses of the insect beasts and left the formation.
"This is… "
As soon as they left the formation, they saw dark green liquid flowing on the ground and a strong fishy smell in the air, which was somewhat similar to the smell of blood.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yang Qi frowned slightly and said, "It seems that what Wu Yuan said before about refining the poison source should be to use the bodies of those strange creatures as containers, and let those strange creatures explode when refining."
Feng Xiaoyun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, "No wonder he set up such a formation to block the toxins in the miasma. I'm afraid he had planned it long ago."
"This Wu Yuan is also a remarkable person. He can actually come up with such a method. If he hadn't killed so many innocent people, he might have already become a practitioner at the peak of Martial Honor." Ji Shan said with emotion.
Hearing this, Yang Qi and the others nodded. Apart from the fact that he killed too many innocent practitioners, Wu Yuan was indeed an extraordinary figure. Whether in terms of attainments in the field of insects and beasts or in cultivating insects and beasts, he should be at the top level in the entire Zichen Continent.
Unfortunately, Wu Yuan took the path of a demon in order to practice, wantonly killing innocent people, which led to the super power issuing an investigation mission. As a result, Yang Qi and others came to investigate, and he wanted to treat Yang Qi and others as prey, so he died. Otherwise, if he was given some time to slowly cultivate insect beasts and refine the poison source, relying on the terrifying poison source, Wu Yuan would definitely become a terrifying martial arts peak strongman!
At this moment, Guo Feng on the side suddenly said, "Do you feel that the toxins in the miasma seem to have weakened a lot?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately sensed it and found that the toxins in the miasma were indeed much weaker than when they came here before.
Yang Qi thought for a moment before speaking, "It should be that when he refined the poison source before, he also absorbed some of the toxins that were scattered in the air."
"The poison of the poisonous dragon has been distributed in this miasma area for tens of thousands of years. Wu Yuan has not even been able to extract it all. The poison source he refined is already so terrifying. If the poisonous dragon is still alive, how terrible would it be?" Feng Xiaoyun sighed.
Yang Qi and the other two were stunned, and then they fell silent. Wu Yuan, who was in the middle stage of the Nine-Star Martial Honor, was easily killed by the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada, and the poison that the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada relied on was much worse than that of the poisonous dragon back then. But even so, the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada absorbed the weakened poison source, which was already so terrifying. If the poisonous dragon took action, I am afraid that even a cultivator at the peak of the Martial Honor would be easily affected by the toxins in his body.
“If the poisonous dragon were still alive, in terms of strength, it would probably be comparable to Master.” Yang Qi thought to himself.
Lin Qingyu is only an eight-star Martial Lord but he has the combat power of a two-star Martial King. The poisonous dragon back then had the cultivation level of a peak Martial Lord. Relying on its terrifying poison, its strength was equally terrifying. It's a pity that the man and the beast are not from the same era.
After leaving the miasma area, Yang Qi directly used his flying martial arts to head for Tianwu Gate. He had many doubts about the eight-winged golden cicada absorbing the poison source and wanted to ask Wu Qian.
Wu Qian has been observing the earth and perhaps he will know if there is anything special about the eight-winged golden cicada.
"What's so special about the eight-winged golden cicada?" Wu Qian was slightly stunned when he heard Yang Qi's words. After pondering for a moment, he said, "As far as I know, the eight-winged golden cicada has nothing special about it."
"No?"
Yang Qi was startled, raised his eyebrows, and immediately told what had happened in the miasma area before.
"Young Master, you..."
Wu Qian didn’t know what to say. He had always told Yang Qi to be careful, but this time Yang Qi still encountered a huge crisis.
But this time, Yang Qi cannot be blamed. After all, this mission was originally just an investigation mission. Who could have thought that during this investigation mission, he would encounter a strong man like Wu Yuan!
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Wu Qian's eyes, and he thought to himself, "It seems that I have to ask my elder brother for some life-saving items. Otherwise, if the young master encounters such danger again, he may not be so lucky to save his life every time."
It would be difficult for Wu Qian to follow Yang Qi all the time. After all, with such a strong man following him, Yang Qi would have no sense of crisis and it would be difficult for him to grow up. But Wu Qian was worried that Yang Qi would encounter a similar strong enemy. The best way was to prepare life-saving things for Yang Qi.
"As the young master said before, if I am not mistaken, the reason why the eight-winged golden cicada can absorb the poison source should be because of the young master." Wu Qian looked at Yang Qi and said.
"I?"
Yang Qi was stunned and looked at Wu Qian blankly, his heart full of doubts.
“This eight-winged golden cicada has been following the young master, especially when the young master was practicing the Source God Canon. The eight-winged golden cicada might have been contaminated by that strange energy, so it has undergone some abnormal changes. This is somewhat similar to the second young master.” Wu Qian explained.
The so-called Second Young Master is Yang Hai. In order to distinguish him from Yang Qi, Wu Qian has always called Yang Qi the Young Master, but called Yang Hai the Second Young Master.
The reason why Yang Qi was able to transform into a dragon was because he accidentally absorbed dragon blood and relied on the strange energy emitted by the Source Realm Pearl to transform himself.
Yang Qi himself is like a living Source Realm Pearl, but this Source Realm Pearl will only release the strange energy extracted from the Source God Canon when he is practicing the Source God Canon. It is not surprising that the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada has been following him and is affected by the strange energy.
"I see!"
After hearing Wu Qian's words, Yang Qi immediately understood why the eight-winged golden cicada could devour the source of the poison. It was not because insects like the eight-winged golden cicada were special, but because the eight-winged golden cicada he cultivated was special.
"Of course, in addition to this, it should also be related to the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada itself. Young Master should know that there are no demon beasts in the Earth lineage, and insect beasts naturally do not exist. Insect beasts are all passed down from the Zichen Continent." Having said this, Wu Qian paused, and then continued, "However, these insect beasts were born on Earth and have the characteristics of the Earth lineage. When they are weak, it may not be visible, but as their strength increases, the special characteristics of the Earth lineage are revealed."
Hearing this, Yang Qi could not help but nod slightly. He also agreed with Wu Qian's explanation. (To be continued)
