The Poisonous Saw Tooth Tiger
The twin brothers suddenly laughed brightly as they harvested the demonic beast, “This time we got really lucky! This demonic beast condensed a poisonous pearl core!”
“A poisonous pearl core?” The blue robed young man and black clothed man seemed surprised.
The twin brothers calmly nodded, “Yes, it is. It seems to have been formed only a couple of months ago judging that it is no larger than a walnut.”
A Rank 2 demonic beast could sell for about a thousand silvers. After dividing it five ways, everyone would receive two hundred silvers. However, a pearl core from the demonic beast’s body could sell for one thousand silvers by itself. And even though it was only formed months ago, a pearl the size of a walnut could sell for at least two thousand silvers. This was because the poisonous pearl core came from the Demonic Beast’s dantian which could be used as a medicinal ingredients or used during for training one’s poison arts. What is a pearl core? It was simply the condensation of the demonic beast’s life energy compressing over the ages and richness of Qi in its dantian. The result was a pearl that formed from layer upon layer of energy slowly wrapping the pearl core to become larger and larger.
The red clothed girl stared with big eyes as she reached out to touch that incredible rare black pearl core with her hand before the blue robed young man stopped her immediately, “Little Sister Tao, don’t touch it! Poisonous pearl cores are condensed from the poison from the demonic beasts over many years. It is extremely toxic, it can even melt through iron not to mention what would it do if you touch it!”
“Hmph!” The young girl stuck her tongue out.
The blue robed teenager took out a jade box from his pocket and said: “A wooden box and an iron box would not be able to contain this pearl core, only a jade box could safely seal in the poison.” The boy began to accumulate Qi in his left hand before gently pushing the Qi out to lift the poisonous pearl up in the air without actually touching it, carefully putting it into the jade box.
By the dead beast, the twin brothers had already began to cut away parts of the demonic beast’s body parts before storing it into a golden silky leather bag.
After everything was done, the elder twin brother frowned: “Elder brother Liu, we spent so much effort to kill this one demonic beast. Back in the cave we saw at least three demonic beasts, one of which was extremely massive.”
The red clothed girl suggested: “Perhaps we would go back and ask for help.”
“What if other people get there first?” The elder twin frowned.
The teenager in black rolled his eyes, “How is that even possible? The Silent Hills are at least a thousand miles long, and with its complex lay out, it’s incredibly rare to find another group.”
The blue robed young man shook his head, “Didn’t you guys notice? The Poison Heart Plant is about to ripen.”
“Hmm? What does that mean?” The red clothed girl was not following.
The young man in black looked a little bit distracted and also a little bit embarrassed as he said: “Once the plant is ready, those poisonous demonic beasts would come out to eat it.”
The blue robed young man made up his mind, as he said in a low voice: “We can handle normal Poisonous Sawed-Tooth beasts, but that extremely large one is definitely out of our league so let’s give it up! Otherwise there is a huge chance that we would all die.”
Everyone fell silent reflecting on those words, it was definitely not worth to lose their life over this.
“How about I tag along?”A bright voice rang out in their direction.
“Who are you?!” The teenager in black spun around brandishing his Verdant Green Halberd posed to attack.
Ye Chen walked to them very slowly “Calm down, calm down. I’m not here to steal anything. I was just walking past when I saw you guys.”
The man in black sneered, “Just walking past? Lies! You heard our conversation!”
“Be calm.” The blue robed young man gave him an annoyed look as he took a step forward, blocking the three men behind him. He asked: “Who are you, good sir? It seems like we haven’t met.”
Ye Chen shrugged, “Ye Chen. Outer Disciple of the Sky Cloud Martial School. I was out hunting when I heard your fight so I came to have a look. I mean no harm.”
“I see.” The blue robed young man did not doubt Ye Chen. The demonic beast was quite strong, so it was quite probable for others to hear. Plus, Ye Chen belonged to the Sky Cloud Martial School, a higher ranked school than the Hall of Golden Light and it was not appropriate to offend him needlessly.
The young man in black observed Ye Chen carefully, he sarcastically replied, “Did you say you have only reached Mortal Realm Rank 6? How can a weakling help us with anything?”
Ye Chen glanced at him, then said to the blue robed teenager: “If my guess is right, that large demonic beast should be roughly equivalent to an Early Condensing Reality Realm martial artist which could be very hard to deal with, but I have a plan to seal its movements.”
“Oh? What’s that?” The red clothed girl seemed be interested.
