Chapter 85
Fragrance Attracting Spirit Beasts
Part 1
"Dean Flender, I actually have a solution, however it is quite dangerous."
Tang San suddenly put forward, his voice drawing everyone's attention.
Flender grumpily said,
"Why didn't you say so earlier? What is it?"
Tang San said,
"Do you still remember the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure that I used two days ago to
suppress the poisonous fog? As an immortal treasure herb, it can be considered to be one of nature's
rarest gems. If I were to expose it to the surroundings, just its aura alone should attract the attention of
powerful spirit beasts. However, as such, it would be impossible for me to guess what manner of beasts
it could bring. It is quite possible that it could summon an exceedingly high quality spirit beast that we
cannot hope to defeat, furthermore, the quantity it can summon will not be low either."
Hearing this, Flender realized it wasn't because Tang San purposely withheld a solution earlier, but
because this solution was truly far too dangerous. In the worst case scenario, it was possible that they
could face total annihilation.
Even though Flender, Zhao Wuji, and Liu Erlong were all rank 70 plus spirit masters, some especially
powerful spirit beasts could easily destroy them.
Just like the Titan Giant Ape they encountered in the Star Dou Great Forest; a terrifying existence that
even a Titled Douluo dare not easily provoke.
"Xiao Gang, what do you think?"
Flender posed the question to Grandmaster
Grandmaster pondered for a moment and said,
"Little San's idea is not necessarily unusable; it all depends on how we approach it. Little San, can you
still find the lair of Dugu Bo?"
Hearing Grandmaster's question, Tang San's eyes immediately lit up, his inner thought progression
closely mirrored Grandmaster's so even though Grandmaster had not revealed his idea, he already
understood.
"Master, you mean to use the venom left behind by the Old Freak to protect us?"
Grandmaster smiled faintly and nodded. Right now everyone else were still baffled, not understanding
what this pair of master and disciple were talking about.
Tang San at Grandmaster's indication explained that because this Sunset Forest housed Poison Douluo
Dugu Bo's private hideout, the perimeter near the location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was
protected by Dugu Bo's poisonous formation.
That poison formation came from Dogu Bo's horrifyingly potent venom abilities.
Even a ten thousand year spirit beast wouldn’t dare take a step past the boundary.
Of course, such a poison posed no challenge to Tang San. Even if Dugu Bo had not already given them
the antidote, he could still easily produce an antidote himself or rely on the Aromatic Silk Beauty
Immortal Treasure to suppress the poison.
By exposing the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure outside of the poison formation, they could
attract many spirits beasts and should at any time the beasts become too powerful, they could retreat
back into the protection of the poison and no longer fear being overwhelmed.
When they wanted to leave, they could simply exit the Sunset Forest in a different direction.
Now that they had a method, everyone immediately set out for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well under
Tang San's directions.
The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located in the center of the Sunset Forest, equidistant to the edges
of the forest, and since the Shrek Academy group had already been inside the Sunset Forest for some
time, it took them less than half a day to reach the outside perimeters Dugu Bo’s poison formation.
Tang San with a serious expression passed out two pills to each person,
"The poison the old freak used for protection here is extremely insidious, although it will affect spirit
masters to a lesser degree compared to spirit beasts, if your spirit energy is less than 70 ranks, a single
step inside the protected ground and your death will be assured. First take one of the pills, it will ensure
your safety for a day, tomorrow at the same time take the second pill. I believe two days should provide
us ample time.”
Finished saying this, Tang San began the preparations. He first entered the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well
alone and retrieved some of the fertile mud from the banks where the two sides of the well flowed
together. After that he returned and dug out a hole outside of the poison formation and placed the mud
within before carefully planting the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure on top.
The Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure was different from Xiao Wu’s Yearning Heartbroken Red
that would never wilt. Once it had left the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, if it didn’t receive enough
nature’s spiritual nourishment, it will slowly wilt.
Thankfully, the soil from the side of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had sufficient energy to nourish it;
otherwise Tang San would never let it touch regular soil.
Having completed the temporary planting of the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure, Tang San
took out a small jade bottle from the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse. As he removed the stopper from
the bottle, a thick cloud of briny stench wallowed out, immediately filling the air. Even the fragrance of
the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure couldn’t suppress its terrible smell.
“Little San, what is that thing? The smell is killing me”
Dai Mubai who always loved cleanliness, immediately dodged far away when he smelled it.
Tang San smiled slightly, and thought to himself, ‘Boss Dai, how can you possibly know that this liquid
with it unbearable stench was synthesized by me using more than ten kinds of precious ingredients. Its
rarity is almost comparable to that of the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure.’
He very carefully tilted the bottle above the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure, allowing a single
drop of black liquid to fall onto its stamen. Tang San then carefully resealed the jade bottle and returned
it into his Hundred Treasure Purse.
An extraordinary scene unfolded. The Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure’s stamen began
emitting a dense of purple gas, it’s originally gentle fragrance immediately growing more powerful.
The smell of the flower was no longer limited to within its area of effect, instead started to quickly
permeate the surrounding air and beyond.
Even Dai Mubai who had evacuated the area previously to escape the stench could feel perfumed air
tickling his nose.
Tang San explained to his group,
“The medicine I used on the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure will nourish it, causing it to
temporarily lose its poison suppression effect for about two hours, however, within this time its scent
will rapidly spread to a minimum of ten li[1]. This should be more than enough to attract some spirit
beasts. After all, the scent belongs to one of the exceedingly rare heavenly treasures; there should no
beasts that wouldn’t like it.”
The rest of the group couldn’t help but be amazed at Tang San’s application of medicine. Of course
they all attributed this to the half year Tang San spent studying under Dugu Bo.
Nourishing the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure and attracting spirit beasts, for Tang San, this
could be considered two birds with one stone. As the gentle scent slowly saturated the air, the Shrek
Academy party also became increasingly alert.
The three with the weakest fighting power, Oscar, Ning Rongrong and Grandmaster were positioned
closest to the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure, the rest are around them, carefully observing in
all directions.
Having finished preparing the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure, Tang San did not immediately
join his friends in surveying the surroundings but rather walked around the flower a distance away. The
scent produced by the divine flora held great attraction to all spirit beasts regardless of their cultivation
level.
In order to prevent the spirit beast with too low of a cultivate level to disturb them and disrupt their
planning, Tang San prepared his own layer of protection via poison.
His poison formation clearly wasn’t as severe as the one created by Dugu Bo, but it should be effective
in filtering the spirit beasts. According to Tang San’s calculations, spirit beasts that had less than two
thousand years of cultivation should not be able to easily enter.
Spirit beasts were different from humans; their senses were much sharper. Especially towards dangers
such as poison, their judgement was rarely wrong.
Once they discovered that the poison was not something they could resist, they would never risk their
lives.
With the assistance of this poison protected ground, the Shrek Academy’s group of people could save a
lot of energy. They only need to choose targets among the sufficiently cultivated spirit beasts.
The stage had been set, all that was left was to tighten their formation and wait. Even though this
hunting method could easily attract more powerful spirit beasts, it was equally dangerous. Whether the
spirit beasts that came were too powerful or too weak, neither would satisfy Tang San and the others’
requirements. As a result, no matter how you put it, luck held a certain part.
The lure of the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure’s effect was even bigger than Tang San had
expected. Once they have finished setting up, less than a cup of tea’s time had passed before the first
spirit beast appeared.
A low rumbling roar and a faint stench reached them, the trees to their left started to sway, as if brushed
by a gale.
“Cloud follows the dragon and wind follows the tiger. It should be a spirit beast of the tiger family.
Everyone be careful.”
Grandmaster calmly deduced.
Just as Grandmaster finished speaking, a gorgeous yet ferocious tiger burst through the thickets.
The tiger was covered from head to toe in murky black fur; the only exception being the “king”
character[2] on its forehead patterned in white. The length of its body was over three meters long and
stood at one meter fifty shoulder height. Although it was quite large, it was nevertheless very nimble.
Even before anyone had a clear look at the beast, it already pounced towards them. Its movement like a
trail of shadows and its aim was precisely the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure being protected
behind everyone.
“Begin combat!”
Tang San roared, and without withholding any spirit power raised his arm, releasing a Spider Web
Restraint. Due to his spirit power increase, his limit had now increased to four Spider Web Restraints.
Spirit beasts from their outer appearance can be seen that generally those with cultivation less than ten
