In the depths of the primordial forest!
As the fragrance of the spiritual herb grew stronger and stronger, the exotic beasts in the surroundings grew more and more irritable.
However, the four Tier Nine exotic beasts in the lead made them not dare to act rashly. As such, they calmed down for the time being.
However, as the three tender leaves at the top of the small tree continued to expand and gradually turned yellow and withered, the several hundred Tier Ten exotic beasts in the surroundings could no longer hold themselves back.
Under the stimulation of the rich fragrance of the spiritual herb, and under the temptation of obtaining the spiritual herb, they ignored the threat of the difference in cultivation level and took the initiative to attack the four Tier Nine exotic beasts.
Although the difference in cultivation level allowed the four Tier Nine exotic beasts to easily kill the Tier Ten exotic beasts, they couldn't overcome the sheer number of Tier Ten exotic beasts present.
In just thirty seconds, the four Tier Nine exotic beasts were injured.
Of course, the price of their injuries was the death of several dozen Tier Ten exotic beasts.
Seeing the number of exotic beasts dwindling, Yu Haoran, who was hiding under the corpses of the exotic beasts, didn't relax in the slightest. On the contrary, his expression gradually grew anxious.
In the short span of 30 seconds, one-fifth of the originally dark green leaves had already begun to wither and turn yellow.
Judging by the speed at which they were turning yellow and withered, it would take at most two minutes for the three tender leaves to completely wither and fall off.
The falling of the tender leaves meant that the spiritual herb at the root had sunk deep into the ground and disappeared completely.
No!
Looking at the three withered leaves, a thought suddenly flashed across the originally anxious Yu Haoran's mind.
In his previous life, the reason why Qin Hua was able to become the champion of the Sect Selection and was chosen by the Heavenly Sword Sect, one of the seven major factions in Tianxuan Continent, was because he had consumed this spiritual herb that could raise his cultivation and potential.
In other words, Qin Hua had definitely made his move before the three tender leaves turned yellow and withered. It was just unknown if he had exchanged blows with any of the surviving exotic beasts.
Thinking up to this point, Yu Haoran's anxious mood slowly calmed down. He continued to observe the situation in front of him.
Another thirty seconds passed. Not only were the injuries on the four Tier Nine exotic beasts getting more and more serious, their demonic force and stamina were also rapidly depleting, making it impossible for them to kill the Tier Ten exotic beasts as easily as before.
However, less than half of the original several hundred Tier Ten exotic beasts were left.
After the third thirty seconds, one of the four Type 9 exotic beasts, a Type 9 Blue Tiger, had its neck bitten off by a Type 10 exotic beast, ending its life.
Yu Haoran didn't really care about the death of the Rank Nine beast. His attention was completely focused on Qin Hua and Qin Du.
This was because he discovered that the two people who were originally hiding motionlessly at the top of the tree had already begun to quietly take out their weapons following Ban Lan's death. They looked like they were ready to attack at any time.

Although ninth-grade exotic beasts were very strong, equivalent to human Martial Warrior experts, facing the siege of hundreds of tenth-grade exotic beasts, not only were they heavily injured, but their demonic energy and internal energy were also greatly depleted, causing their vigilance to drop greatly.
It wasn't until Qin Hua and Qin Du's weapons stabbed into their bodies that the two Tier Nine exotic beasts finally reacted.
But it was already too late. The poisonous swords had not only stabbed into their vitals, but also directly cut off their life force.
"Qin Du, I'll hold off these exotic beasts. You go collect the spiritual herbs!" Qin Hua, whose strength had reached the peak of Martial Disciple eighth grade, instructed Qin Du, whose cultivation was also at the peak of Martial Disciple seventh grade.
"Don't worry, Big Brother!" Qin Du answered casually and turned around, running straight for the blood-red sapling.
Seeing the spiritual herbs they were desperately fighting for were about to fall into the hands of the two humans, the dozens of Tier Ten exotic beasts that were originally fighting each other began to attack Qin Hua and Qin Du with all their might, just like how they attacked the Tier Nine exotic beasts earlier.
However, Qin Hua, who was brimming with Yuan Li and had mastered a profound martial technique, was different from the four Tier Nine exotic beasts. He only needed to block the attacks of the exotic beasts and buy time for Qin Du to collect the spiritual herbs. He didn't need to risk his life against the exotic beasts.
Therefore, not only was he able to block the attacks of the exotic beasts for a while, he was also not in too much danger.
Taking out a tool specially used to collect spiritual herbs, he carefully dug out the small sapling, revealing the blood-red root ginseng that was 90% similar to ginseng under the sapling. Qin Du's face revealed an uncontrollable joy.
Carefully separating the root ginseng from the sapling, he then put them into a box and a cloth bag. Qin Du turned his head and shouted to Qin Hua, "Big Brother, the spiritual herbs are in our hands. Let's retreat quickly!"
"Careful!" Hearing that the spiritual herbs were in their hands, Qin Hua was overjoyed. Using a group attack sword technique to repel a few Tier Ten exotic beasts, Qin Hua quickly retreated, preparing to approach Qin Du.
But just as he was about to turn around and approach Qin Du, he discovered a young man covered in blood, his face covered in exotic beast fur, appearing beside Qin Du.
To be able to appear in the depths of the primitive forest at this time and disguise his appearance, Qin Hua didn't need to think too much to know that the other party's goal was the spiritual herbs in Qin Du's hands.
However, his warning was too late.
Just as Qin Du was about to turn around and defend himself, a poisonous exotic beast tooth directly pierced his neck artery. Qin Du didn't even have time to look at who ambushed him before his vision turned black and he fell to the ground, dead.
Reaching out to take the box with the spiritual herbs and ignoring the bag with the sapling, the human cultivator whose face was covered in exotic beast fur quickly fled towards the outskirts of the forest.
"Damn it!"
Seeing the treasure snatcher desperately fleeing, Qin Hua almost went mad with anger.
Although he really wanted to give chase immediately, the exotic beasts that had surrounded him blocked his path.
Left with no other choice, he could only kill the exotic beasts blocking his way first, then chase after the thief who stole the spiritual herb.
Of course, he killed the exotic beasts first. Aside from the exotic beasts blocking his path, he also didn't have to worry about the other party escaping from his grasp.
This was because when the other party ambushed Qin Du, he revealed that his cultivation was only at the early fourth grade of Martial Disciple. With such a cultivation, it was impossible for him to leave the forest in a short period of time. Moreover, he suspected that the person who stole the spiritual herbs was most likely one of Cheng Zhangyu's men.
Because of the encounter not long ago, Cheng Zhangyu would definitely be suspicious of him appearing in the depths of the primitive forest. Moreover, there seemed to be an early fourth grade Martial Disciple by Cheng Zhangyu's side.
After escaping the encirclement of the exotic beasts, the cultivator whose face was covered in exotic beast fur turned his head to look at Qin Hua, who was surrounded by exotic beasts, and felt joy in his heart.
Then, he channeled all his energy into his legs and sped up his escape.
However, the direction he fled in wasn't the outskirts of the forest, but instead turned and continued deeper into the forest. This made Qin Hua even more certain of his guess.
After fleeing for a thousand meters, the cultivator whose face was covered in exotic beast fur suddenly stopped. He looked around and finally came to a hidden bush.
Then, he suddenly disappeared without a trace.
