Chapter 501
A few minutes later, the injuries of Elder Hu and the others had fully recovered . Every single one of them was overflowing with vitality .
"Thank you, Zhang shi . . . " The crowd expressed their gratitude .
Even though they had already paid for the services so they didn't owe anything to Zhang Xuan, the other party's medical skill was still simply way too astonishing . It was almost miraculous, and it was hard to believe that someone in the world was capable of such a feat .
"The Demon Cinque Beast has already been tamed by Zhang shi so it would be a waste of time if we were to remain here . Thus, I won't be imposing on you all any longer . Farewell!"
Hall Master Han clasped his fist and bade his farewell .
His primary objective here was to tame the Demon Cinque Beast . However, since Zhang shi had already tamed it, there was no reason for him to remain here any longer .
Even though he had failed to tame the Demon Cinque Beast, he had recovered from his trauma . With this alone, he was confident that he could triumph over Luo Ming and obtain the qualification to study at the headquarter .
So, his final objective could be said to have been met . In a sense, his trip wasn't wasted .
"Farewell!" Zhang Xuan, Hall Master Sai, and the others clasped their fists as well .
"Given how talented Zhang shi is, if I'm not mistaken, you should be participating in the Master Teacher Tournament two months from now, right? I'll definitely head there personally to support you!" Hall Master Han chuckled before leaving .
Given the extent of the other party's capability and his identity as a master teacher, and considering the major affairs surrounding the Myriad Kingdom City during this period of time, it wasn't too difficult to deduce his next objective .
No matter what, he owed the other party a debt . If there was a chance, he would like to repay it . Besides, given the other party's immense capability and his proficiency in various occupations, he was a person worth befriending .
After Hall Master Han and the others left, the area grew quiet once more .
"Zhang shi, do we enter the tomb now or do we rest here first?"
Luo Zhu looked at Zhang Xuan with a look of admiration .
The previous time he came here, he had to operate secretly for fear of being noticed by the Demon Cinque Beast . Yet, the person before him had managed to tame this notorious fellow . This was something he could never have imagined in the past .
With the threat from the Demon Cinque Beast out of the way, there wasn't any reason for them to rush anymore . They could enter the tomb whenever they liked .
"Hold on for a moment . We'll enter after I solve the problem the Demon Cinque Beast is suffering from . "
Zhang Xuan waved his hands .
"Problem? It isn't injured though…" The crowd was perplexed .
This big fellow possessed such mighty strength and its defense was invincible within the Myriad Kingdom Alliance . Even when battling against Hall Master Han and the others, it was able to crush all of them easily .
Solving its problem?
What kind of problem could it have?
"The Soul Devouring Ants don't have much of an influence on ordinary lifeforms and humans . However, they are yin attribute lifeforms—otherwise they wouldn't have sustained themselves by consuming souls—and after loitering around this area for a month or two, even if the Demon Cinque Beast didn't really come into contact with them, it would still be affected by the yin energy they exude . "
Placing his hands behind his back, Zhang Xuan explained impassively . "The intense battle just a moment ago caused the yin energy to seep into its internal organs . If it isn't cleared away swiftly, it'll be hard for it to achieve any breakthroughs in the future!"
"There's actually such a matter?"
"If that's the case, shouldn't we stay away from those Soul Devouring Ants as well?"
Upon hearing that even a powerful existence like the Demon Cinque Beast would be affected by the Soul Devouring Ants, everyone was alarmed . They immediately scanned their surroundings warily .
At this moment, after consuming the cooked Deerhorde Beast, the satisfied Soul Devouring Ants had burrowed back underground . Thus, there wasn't any trace of them left on the surface .
If they hadn't witnessed it personally, it would have been difficult for them to believe that this ancient creature, which hadn't been sighted for such a long period of time, truly existed in the world .
To consume even formations . . . It was truly a fearsome existence .
"It'll be fine as long as you all don't consume the water from the lake!" Zhang Xuan said, "The Soul Devouring Ants can sense that the soul oracle tomb is beneath the lake . Thus, even though the water may seem clean, it is actually filled with the corpses of these fellows . One of the main reasons why the Demon Cinque Beast is plagued by the yin energy of these fellows is due to drinking the water from the lake . "
Everyone came to a realization .
These creatures were drawn here by the scent of the soul oracle tomb . Realizing that the tomb was beneath the lake, it was inevitable that some of them would be unable to resist the allure and attempt to head for the soul oracle tomb . As time slowly passed, the water became unsafe for consumption .
"Then . . . how can this problem be solved?" Luo Zhu asked .
Since even the Demon Cinque Beast could be plagued by the yin energy, what should they do if they were affected as well?
Everyone also turned their gazes over . They wanted to know the solution so that they would know what to do if they were to ingest the water from the lake accidentally .
"Simple, you just have to chew on the grass by the side!" Zhang Xuan pointed .
"Chew on the grass?" Taken aback, everyone instinctively turned to the Demon Cinque Beast, which was still busy chewing on the grass, with a dumbfounded expression .
They thought that Zhang shi's act of ordering the Demon Cinque Beast to chew on grass was a punishment, but from the looks of it now, it seemed like he had another motive in mind .
This explained why this massive fellow didn't feel displeased in the slightest, it even went on and munched on the grass excitedly .
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be Bluerain Grass, right? This grass can be found all around the mountain . However, if I recall correctly, this grass should have no particular attribute at all . Why would eating this grass clear away the yin energy in one's body?"
Hall Master Sai was bewildered .
As an appraiser, he boasted vast knowledge . As such, he was able to identify the grass in an instant .
Bluerain Grass grew on mountainous areas that were near a water source . It didn't have any effect or attribute, and as such, it couldn't even be considered as a medicinal herb . Why would it be able to expel the yin energy from the Soul Devouring Ants?
"It's true that this grass primarily has no attribute or effect . However, one has to take their environment into consideration as well . If it's the patch of grass over there, it'll be completely ineffective!" Zhang Xuan pointed .
