"I feel like I’ve touched the threshold of Ice Magic," Yun Sheng even forgot to question why Ye Beiming had suddenly made a move earlier. She wasn’t even aware of how dangerous her situation had been at that time. Ye Beiming couldn’t help but smile gently. It turned out that during her meditation, Yun Sheng had actually stumbled upon the knack for using Ice Magic. Without a second thought, she immediately left the auction house, didn’t even have the time to say goodbye to Zhou Qingchuan, and hurried back to her residence. She needed to meditate immediately. If successful, she should be able to comprehend Ice Magic after this meditation session. Secondary magic is not the same as general Natural Magic; it either comes from an innate mutation of a Mage’s magic or it must rely on postnatal comprehension. In her Cloud Dream Ice Sleep state, Yun Sheng was actually stimulated by Lan’s Ice Magic Power and came to an understanding. Zhou Qingchuan was somewhat surprised to see Yun Sheng leave without greeting him. Originally, he wanted to discuss with Yun Sheng exclusively handling Moon God Tribute Potion for Little Ci’en Hall at the auction house in the future. Ye Beiming was naturally very pleased to see Yun Sheng snubbing Zhou Qingchuan. His instincts as a man told him that this man, with a notable family background and appearance, had a good impression of Yun Sheng. He decided that before this good impression could develop, he would nip it in the bud by asserting his ownership very clearly. After returning to her place, Yun Sheng couldn’t wait to enter the meditation state. The passage of days and nights silently went by during her meditation. By the time Yun Sheng woke up again, it was already two days and two nights later. In these two days and nights, the situation in Luoxia City had already changed. The fragrance of the Seven-leaf Purple Ginseng, which was getting closer and closer to maturity, induced more Demon Beasts to become restless. Zhou Quan and others had learned that, at the latest, the Purple Ginseng in Luoxia Wetland would mature in one day and night. By this time, a large number of Hunter Soldiers had gathered in Luoxia City. Apart from the local forces of Luoxia City and the Hunter Soldiers from various places, the most conspicuous of these forces included several groups. Among them were three Magic Students from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp. Their strength was the strongest with a female trainee named Lan, who was a Holy Demon Guide, while the other two were above Magic Masters. By this time, Yun Sheng had just finished her meditation, and when she woke up, she exhaled deeply. She took out her Magic Wand, and after chanting, several snowflakes fluttered down in the room. "Although it is still the most basic Ice Magic, it counts as a breakthrough," Yun Sheng got up and left the room. As soon as she left the room, she found Zhou Quan waiting outside. "Young master, you’ve finally come out. We should prepare to set off for Luoxia Wetland," Zhou Quan had also heard that Yun Sheng was in the process of comprehending magic. These days, upon inquiring about the situation in the city, Zhou Quan understood how precious the Purple Ginseng was, and many Hunter Soldiers lurking in the city had already entered Luoxia Wetland. After all, there was only one Seven-leaf Purple Ginseng, and the competition among Hunter Soldiers and Demon Beasts was fierce. "Good, let’s set off immediately," Yun Sheng smiled. If Zhou Quan knew that there was an almost Domain Level Ninth-Order Peak Eagle Claw Bat King hidden within Luoxia Wetland, he would probably never enter the wetland, even if it killed him. Yun Sheng had peace of mind closing himself off to comprehend Ice Magic during this period, partly because he knew that as long as the Ninth-Order Peak Demon Beast was present, no one could actually get close to where the Purple Ginseng was located. Yun Sheng went with Zhou Quan to the inn’s main hall. Chen Lianlian, the Crown Prince, as well as Ye Beiming and Qi Ye were all already waiting there. "Some people really don’t know what’s good for them, nor do they consider their own status, making so many people wait for you alone," Chen Lianlian had been utterly unlucky recently. Not only was her appearance ruined, but because of her and the Mainland Magic Elite Camp’s conflict, the former Crown Prince Ye Beilian had also developed a grudge against her. Chen Lianlian didn’t look for faults within herself but instead blamed everything on Yun Sheng. Right now, all she wanted was to enter the Luoxia Wetland as soon as possible and find the Purple Ginseng, so her face could be restored to what it was before. "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone is already clear about the situation in the Luoxia Wetland. The current Luoxia Wetland is not only inhabited by various dangerous Demon Beasts, but also what exactly is at the innermost area, which is temporarily unknown, for everyone’s safety. We have decided to first hunt the peripheral Demon Beasts, and everyone must not act rashly," Zhou Quan told everyone his plan. Chen Lianlian was dissatisfied: "In my opinion, we should swiftly kill the Demon Beasts and enter the core area. If we probe around the perimeter, the Purple Ginseng might just be picked by others." If she had to return with such a face, she would prefer not to live at all. Zhou Quan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. On this journey, he found that though Chen Lianlian’s appearance was beautiful, she was unfortunately domineering and wilful, a stark contrast to their Deputy Captain, like the difference between clouds and mud. If it weren’t for the fact that this was related to their first mission, he really wanted to throw Chen Lianlian out directly. "Listen, my goal is the Purple Ginseng, you are responsible for dealing with the peripheral Demon Beasts, I will take my personal Mage and Summoner, and immediately assault into the middle area," Crown Prince Ye Beilian had heard from the Imperial Physician that a stalk of Purple Ginseng was more than enough to heal his Magic Soul, and the remainder could be refined into Elixirs, offered to his father the Emperor and mother the Empress Dowager, who would certainly be overjoyed. Recently, Ye Beiming was in the spotlight after slaying the Blood Cloud Beast, which led to their father changing his view about him. In his heart, Ye Beilian felt proud; with Wuxiong present, he could recognize the Rank of Demon Beasts and avoid dangerous ones. He could enter the Luoxia Wetland in the shortest time, collect the Purple Ginseng, and as for these Hunter Soldiers of lowly status, it did not matter if a few of them died. At most, after returning to Great Zhou, he would just give them some settlement money. The thoughts of Crown Prince Ye Beilian were written all over his face, and Yun Sheng saw this and sneered coldly in his heart. Zhou Quan, left with no choice, had to make a compromise. He agreed with Ye Beilian that the Sky Hunting Corps would hold off the Demon Beasts, covering for Ye Beilian and others to venture deep into the Luoxia Wetland. The group left Luoxia City in a grand manner, heading toward the Luoxia Wetland. Upon entering the periphery of the Luoxia Wetland, Qi Ye commanded everyone to stop. He opened his cloak, and under the cloak, a green snake slithered out, hissing towards the front a few times. "Little Qing says there is miasma ahead that can’t be seen by the naked eye, and everyone needs to take Detoxification Medicine before entering," bringing Qi Ye along was indeed the right choice. The miasma around the Luoxia Wetland is different from other places; it is colorless and odorless here. It’s like strong liquor, initially unnoticeable, but as one goes deeper, the miasma becomes denser. Once accumulated to a certain level of toxin, the poison will act unnoticed. But for people like Qi Ye who are naturally sensitive to poison, even colorless and odorless poison can be immediately identified with the help of Little Qing. After everyone took the Detoxification Medicine, they continued to walk forward.
