Following that, Ye Yunfei and the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm roamed the Wilderness-Forest everywhere with their insect army in search.
The number of insects in that army was simply too vast. Wherever they went, they swept through almost everything, forcing all living creatures to choose retreat.
Whenever they encountered perilous or forbidden grounds, Ye Yunfei was able to sense them in advance. If the danger wasn't too great, they would force their way through directly; if it was too dangerous, they would detour.
Thus, almost nothing in this Wilderness-Forest could hinder Ye Yunfei.
"The last time I led the experts of our Earth Core Race into this place, we made full preparations, advanced step by step with caution, and yet suffered heavy casualties, ultimately forced to flee.
Young Master Su, I never imagined that entering with you this time would allow us to swagger about and barge through recklessly like this!"
The old Wizard followed beside Ye Yunfei, looking at the ocean-like insect army surrounding them, and couldn't help but exclaim repeatedly. This made him even more awed by Ye Yunfei's methods.
"Young Master Su is so young yet possesses such strength and skill. Once he truly matures in the future, his name will surely shake the entire Three Thousand Worlds!
Our Earth Core Race must seize this opportunity, foster good relations with Young Master Su. In the future, because of him, we might even manage to step out of this Earth Core World and develop and thrive in the vast time and space outside."
The old Wizard thought to himself.
The Wilderness-Forest was extremely vast, with abundant spiritual energy and sound natural laws. Precious medicinal herbs grew everywhere, many of which were rare or nonexistent in the outside world.
Aside from medicinal herbs, there were also many other natural treasures and rare crystalline ores.
Both the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm and the old Wizard had extremely keen perception of all kinds of treasures; even those rare crystals buried deep underground were something they could perceive acutely.
Soon, Ye Yunfei obtained many Soul Power type treasures, but none were capable of treating Ji Yue.
"You seem to be in great need of Soul Power type treasures?
Could it be for curing an illness?"
Suddenly, the green-robed old man appeared in the distance, his gaze fixed on Ye Yunfei as he asked.
"Yes."
Ye Yunfei stopped and looked at the green-robed old man, answering indifferently.
"I can give you one Soul Lotus, but you'll need to exchange three Star Sparkles Fruits for it."
That green-robed old man said.
"You have a Soul Lotus?"
Ye Yunfei perked up immediately and asked at once.
"Yes.
I have two Soul Lotuses. I can give you one."
The green-robed old man nodded.
"Deal!"
Ye Yunfei immediately nodded in agreement.
Soul Lotus was an extremely precious Soul Power type treasure. It had immense nurturing effects on the Soul Body and was a sacred medicine for treating Soul Body injuries!
At the same time, Ye Yunfei suddenly understood why this Burial Race member before him was able to give birth to a new Soul Body from the foundation of a corpse, thus possessing new life.
It was most likely because he possessed two Soul Lotuses!
It was probably that some fragments of a Soul Body still lingered within his former corpse. Nurtured by the two Soul Lotuses over a long period of time, a new, complete Soul Body was thus born.
"I guess the reason you want the Star Sparkles Fruit is that you believe this spiritual fruit can cleanse the corpse aura and decay aura from your flesh body, allowing you to possess a complete, brand new flesh body."
Ye Yunfei suddenly said.
"Yes."
Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, the green-robed old man was somewhat surprised.
Because this was indeed the reason he urgently wanted the Star Sparkles Fruit.
"Actually, the Star Sparkles Fruit cannot help you cleanse the corpse aura and decay aura.
However, I can refine a type of pill to remove the corpse aura and decay aura from your dead flesh body."
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and said.
"There is such a pill?"
Upon hearing Ye Yunfei's words, the green-robed old man showed an excited expression.
His current Soul Body was born upon an old corpse. Although the Soul Body was complete and flawless, the flesh body remained a corpse, carrying heavy corpse aura and decay aura. This had become a huge hindrance restricting his cultivation.
Therefore, he very much wanted to remove the corpse aura and decay aura from his flesh body.
"Actually, as a member of the Burial Race, you can cultivate Burial Race techniques. For the Burial Race, the corpse aura and decay aura on the flesh body can be converted into special energy and laws through cultivation, which essentially becomes a kind of capital for your Burial Race.
When Burial Race techniques are cultivated to a profound level, their power is immense."
Ye Yunfei said.
"Do you know what race I belonged to in my previous life?
In my previous life, I belonged to the Race of Light.
Therefore, I do not wish to be a Burial Race."
The green-robed old man fell silent for a moment before answering.
"I understand."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
The Race of Light specialized in cultivating laws of light, pursuing things of light and purity. To think he had now become a Burial Race—it was something he couldn't accept.
Although this green-robed old man's Soul Body was newly born, it still retained some of the temperament and preferences from his previous life.
"Young man, if you can help me remove the corpse aura and decay aura from my flesh body, I can give you both Soul Lotuses."
The green-robed old man stared at Ye Yunfei and said.
"Good."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
Then, Ye Yunfei immediately took out a pill cauldron and a large batch of medicinal herbs, and began refining pills.
In this Wilderness-Forest, Ye Yunfei had found a huge amount of high-level medicinal herbs. Combined with his previous stockpiles, Ye Yunfei now possessed an abundance of high-level herbs, and the variety was extremely rich. He had no worries about running out of herbs.
"Young man, I never imagined your alchemy skill would be so advanced."
The green-robed old man stood to the side, watching Ye Yunfei's pill-refining techniques that flowed as smoothly as floating clouds and flowing water, and couldn't help but marvel.
Besides this green-robed old man, there were some other experts lurking in the distance, watching Ye Yunfei refine pills.
A little less than half an hour later.
"Here are twenty Sky Snow Pills, which can completely remove the corpse aura and decay aura from your flesh body."
Ye Yunfei handed two jade bottles to the green-robed old man.
Each jade bottle contained ten pills.
After receiving the two jade bottles, the green-robed old man immediately took out one of the white pills and stuffed it into his mouth.
"It's indeed effective!"
A moment later, he revealed an expression of wild joy.
"Haha…
Young man, the efficacy of the pill you refined is too good!
These two Soul Lotuses are yours now!"
Overcome with excitement, the green-robed old man laughed heartily, flicked his finger, and two translucent lotus flowers landed before Ye Yunfei.
These two lotus flowers looked as if they were carved from ice, crystalline and translucent, and emanated a rich Soul Power energy.
"The core essence of these two Soul Lotuses has been depleted by more than half.
However, something is better than nothing."
Ye Yunfei sensed the two Soul Lotuses and couldn't help but show a disappointed expression.
"The core essence has been depleted by more than half?"
Upon hearing this, the green-robed old man couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Yes.
The core essence of these two Soul Lotuses has already been mostly consumed by you. Their effects are halved as well."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
Then, Ye Yunfei sent the two Soul Lotuses into Ji Yue's soul sea.
"So comfortable!
I feel much better!"
Ji Yue immediately felt her Soul Body extremely comfortable.
"Senior Sister Ji Yue, these two Soul Lotuses can, at the very least, cause your Soul Power intensity to skyrocket directly by a hundredfold."
Ye Yunfei smiled.
Although these two Soul Lotuses had lost more than half of their core essence, they were, after all, rare treasures of the world in terms of Soul Power. Their effects were still quite astonishing.
