A Beast Spirit was the essence left behind by a Magical Beast of the Spirit Realm and above.
Note that this was referring to those of the Spirit Realm and above!
This meant that even a Magical Beast of the Spirit Realm might not be able to give birth to a Beast Spirit.
This depended on whether the Magical Beast had a Demonic Soul.
The Demonic Soul of a Magical Beast was equivalent to the Martial Soul of a human.
Martial Soul cultivators were extremely rare in the human world. At least, until now, Qin Yichen had not met a single Martial Soul cultivator.
That was definitely an extremely rare existence.
The Beast Spirit hanging around Little Xuanxuan's neck was left behind by a Magical Beast with a Martial Soul of the Spirit Realm and above.
Within the Beast Spirit, not only did it contain the Blood Essence left behind by the Magical Beast before it died, it also contained a remnant will. If one could devour the Beast Spirit, then some low level Magical Beasts might even mutate and become abnormally strong.
Furthermore, Magical Beasts had a special innate ability to sense Beast Spirits. In the Dense Fog Forest, carrying a Beast Spirit with them was a fatal temptation to those Magical Beasts. It was no wonder that the Rising Sun Mercenary Team suffered so many suicidal attacks from the Magical Beasts.
Of course, to a cultivator, consuming the Blood Essence of a Beast Spirit would have a very significant effect on tempering the body. However, the prerequisite was that one had to be able to withstand the violent intent within the Blood Essence.
However, the remnant violent intent of a Magical Beast of the Spirit Realm and above was not something that just anyone could withstand.
Qin Yichen, who had memories from before, also knew some other uses of a Beast Spirit.
For example, a Beast Spirit had a huge nourishing effect on a Martial Soul cultivator and could even raise the level of the Martial Soul.
This was also the reason why Martial Soul cultivators were so strong.
If they could refine a Beast Spirit with a special attribute, their Martial Soul would become even stronger.
Of course, what Qin Yichen was most curious about was, where did Little Xuanxuan get this Beast Spirit from?
One had to know that even in the Central Region, Beast Spirits were extremely rare. Not all Magical Beasts with Martial Souls would leave behind a Beast Spirit after they died.
Furthermore, with the Rising Sun Mercenary Team's strength, they definitely would not be able to contend against a Magical Beast with a Martial Soul of the Spirit Realm and above!
However, even though Qin Yichen was curious, he couldn't ask too much. He could only wait for the development of the situation.
Night quietly arrived under everyone's nervous gazes as they advanced.
In the Misty Forest at night, the visibility was even lower. Even with the illumination of the torches, one could only see within a certain range.
Under such circumstances, it was undoubtedly extremely dangerous to travel.
Therefore, when the sky was completely dark, Xiang Wu arranged for the mercenary group to set up camp.
In just a short moment, the experienced mercenaries had covered the surroundings of the campsite with sharp wooden spikes. Over ten mercenaries were also seated within the campsite, their hands tightly gripping onto their swords.
The entire camp was strangely quiet. Only the sputtering of flames from the bonfire could be heard.
There was a crackling sound.
Qin Yichen sat cross-legged in the center of the crowd. Beside him were Xiang Xuan and the other two wounded men. He was the only one in the crowd who remained calm.
The dense fog shrouded the forest. Suddenly, a nauseating stench faintly permeated the air.
"It's here!"
Qin Yichen's hand gently stroked Little Xuan Xuan's head as he softly muttered.
"Rustle, rustle …"
Just as he finished speaking, a rustling sound was suddenly heard in the misty forest. Then, pairs of crimson beast eyes appeared in everyone's line of sight.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
When they saw the sudden appearance of the Magical Beasts, the expressions of the Rising Sun Mercenary Team turned serious. Soon after, the mercenaries stood up one by one and unsheathed the swords in their hands.
As time passed, the number of Magical Beasts that had gathered increased. In a short ten minutes, there were already dozens of pairs of crimson beast eyes that had appeared in the fog. From the looks of it, there was a trend of increasing.
When he saw so many Magical Beasts in the surroundings, a tinge of astonishment flashed across Qin Yichen's eyes.
Looks like the Beast Spirit in Little Xuan Xuan's hands was not of a low rank.
When Little Xuan Xuan, who was beside Qin Yichen, saw so many Magical Beasts that had appeared in the surroundings, her small face turned pale from fright. One of her small hands tightly grabbed onto Qin Yichen's clothes, as if it could give her a sense of security.
This was because she felt that those gazes were all staring at her.
“
！”
“
！”
Not long after these Magical Beasts appeared, the ground suddenly trembled. Immediately, two extremely ferocious auras appeared in the fog.
"Peak second level Magical Beasts!"
When they sensed these two ferocious auras, the faces of the Rising Sun Mercenary Team members turned pale. Even Xiang Wu's expression turned extremely gloomy.
The trembling of the ground grew closer and closer in the fog. Finally, two gigantic and ferocious Magical Beasts appeared under the illumination of the fire.
When they saw the two ferocious Magical Beasts' scarlet-red eyes, the hearts of the Rising Sun Mercenary Team members violently trembled. Even Xiang Ya, who was beside Xiang Wu, trembled slightly.
"Peak second level Bewilderment Leopards …"
When Qin Yichen saw the two ferocious and ferocious Magical Beasts, his finger could not help but lightly tap twice on his thigh.
These two beasts looked a little ferocious.
It seemed like they had been coveting the Beast Spirit in Little Xuan Xuan's neck for a long time.
"Everyone be careful!"
Xiang Wu's expression was grave as he looked at the Magical Beasts that had surrounded the campsite so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Then, he looked at the two ferocious leopards in the middle.
Fortunately, the Rising Sun Mercenary Team was a team that had been on the brink of life and death. If it was an ordinary Adventurer, they would have already panicked.
Chaos was actually equivalent to a slow death!
"Old Liu, bring some men to protect the campsite!"
"Yes!"
Liu Zhen's expression was grave as he replied. The large blade in his hand flickered with a cold light as it was wrapped in vigorous True Yuan.
"Leader, what about the two big ones?"
One of the Rising Sun Mercenary Team members asked.
Xiang Wu was silent for a moment. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I'll hold them off by myself. You guys quickly clear out the other Magical Beasts!"
"Leader!"
When they heard that Xiang Wu wanted to intercept the two peak second level Bewilderment Leopards by himself, the expressions of the Rising Sun Mercenary Team members changed drastically.
"Don't be so long-winded. If you don't want me to die, then hurry up and clear out those beasts and come help me!"
Xiang Wu shouted.
"Yes!"
Hearing this, the Rising Sun Mercenary Team members tightened their grip on their weapons as they replied in a deep voice.
This was also the reason why they were hell-bent on following Xiang Wu.
