"That's right. It is news of the Grass of Imperfection."
The leader of the White Tiger Kind smiled, "After nine days, the seven royal kinds finally found out the whereabouts of the Grass of Imperfection from a cultivator of the eighth level."
"Where?" Ling Xian's spirit was refreshed.
"The Fiend Planet has a dangerous place called the Forest of the Underworld."
"This place is vast and boundless. It is surrounded by poisonous fog all year round. It is like a maze. Once you enter, it is very difficult to get out."
"The worst part is that only beings of the ninth level and below are allowed to enter."
The leader wiped off his smile, "Coincidentally, that cultivator entered the Forest of the Underworld and saw the Grass of Imperfection. However, he had no way to take it."
"Forest of the Underworld …" Ling Xian frowned, "Please lead the way."
"There is no need."
"The seven royal kinds have sent their strongest inheritors. They should be here by now."
The leader of the White Tiger Kind said gently, "You only need to wait for a few days and you will see the light again."
"The treatment of a hero sure is nice." Ling Xian smiled. If he didn't save the Fiend Planet, the seven royal kinds wouldn't be doing so much for him.
"To save the Fiend Planet, you sacrificed your eyes. The seven royal kinds have the responsibility to help you see the light again." The leader of the White Tiger Kind smiled.
"Then I will wait. I hope they can return safely with the Grass of Imperfection." Ling Xian stared into the sky. He was both hopeful and worried.
Though he's never been to the Forest of the Underworld, based on the leader's description, he knew that it was a terrifying place. Even the strongest inheritors may not be able to get out unscathed.
"Do not worry. Not only did they bring the antidote, they also brought the royal treasure. They will complete their mission and return safely." The leader of the White Tiger Kind had a smile on his face. He wasn't worried.
"Then I do not have to worry." Ling Xian grinned. The antidote and the royal treasure will, without a doubt, lower the risk to the lowest.
"The moment I have news, I will inform you. Goodbye." The leader of the White Tiger Kind paid his respect and left.
At this, Ling Xian closed his eyes and waited for news.
Five days later, the leader of the White Tiger Kind walked out of space with good news and bad news.
The good news was that the seven imperial descendants found the Deficiency Mending Grass, but the bad news was that they were trapped and unable to leave.
This made Ling Xian frown. He didn't think he would be trapped in the Forest of the Underworld even though he had the royal treasure with him.
"Only cultivators below level nine can enter the Yellow Springs Forest. We want to help, but we are powerless."
The patriarch of the White Tiger Clan smiled bitterly and said, "Apologies, I've disappointed you, mister."
"It doesn't matter. The most important thing right now is to save them so that we don't suffer a double loss."
Ling Xian frowned, "Long Wu Shuang also went?"
"Other than the True Phoenix race and the Roc race, the other royal families have all sent their strongest descendants. Long Wushuang naturally went as well." The patriarch of the White Tiger Clan sighed. He had originally thought that this matter was in the bag. After all, the people who were going were all well-known figures in the eighth realm, and they even brought the Imperial Clan's supreme treasure.
Unexpectedly, they were all trapped in the Yellow Springs Forest.
"Is the person sent by the True Phoenix Clan a woman?" Ling Xian's frown deepened. Now that Feng Qiu Dao has entered the Life and Death Isolation, the best descendant of the True Phoenix Clan was without a doubt, Feng Jiu Ge.
"That's right. I heard this woman is half a Sky Demon. It's only a matter of time before she transforms into a true Sky Demon." The leader of the White Tiger Clan nodded.
"Jiu Ge really is going." Ling Xian sighed and straightened his back, "Please lead the way."
"You want to go to the Forest of the Underworld?" The leader of the White Tiger Clan was startled.
"I have to go myself." Ling Xian softly sighed. He wanted the Grass of Replenishment and he also wanted to save Feng Jiu Ge.
"That is far too dangerous. The seven royal kinds are already discussing how to deal with this. Please wait patiently." The leader of the White Tiger Clan frowned, not wanting Ling Xian to take the risk.
"Sending someone else is suicide. Let me do it." Ling Xian's expression was calm. Feng Jiu Ge was in danger, how could he just stand by and do nothing?
"I …" The leader of the White Tiger Clan bitterly smiled, speechless.
The people sent out by the seven royal kinds were the strongest of the eighth level. If they couldn't leave, then sending another eighth level cultivator would be suicide.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that in the entire planet, only Ling Xian could save those seven.
"Let's wait a little longer. It's not that I doubt your capabilities, it's that you can't see right now. Entering the labyrinthine Forest of the Underworld is far too dangerous." The leader of the White Tiger Clan advised.
"Waiting any longer will only put them in more danger."
Ling Xian softly sighed. The Forest of the Underworld was surrounded by poisonous fog all year round. Even if those seven people brought antidotes, they won't last long.
"But your eyes …" The leader of the White Tiger Clan hesitated.
"It's okay. Though my eyes are blind, my heart isn't."
"I could sense their auras and rescue them. After that, I gained my eyes."
Ling Xian softly grinned. He was on the path of the undying soul. Finding those seven people wasn't hard.
"Oh well, since you've made up your mind, then I won't say more."
The leader of the White Tiger Clan exhaled a long sigh, "Please wait for a moment. I will go get the antidote."
"There's no need. I have the True Fire of Purity. The poisonous fog in the Forest of the Underworld cannot threaten me." Ling Xian waved his hand. Though he's never seen the poisonous fog in the Forest of the Underworld, countless times has proven that the True Fire of Purity lives up to its name.
"Then I will go get you a treasure to protect yourself." The leader of the White Tiger Clan was still worried.
"There's no need. Take me there." Ling Xian smiled warmly.
"Oh well, follow me."
The leader of the White Tiger Clan sighed. Then, he flapped around his sleeve and carried Ling Xian across the sky.
A day later, the two of them arrived above a vast and endless forest.
The poisonous fog covered the sky and the earth. Even Ling Xian was a little shaken.
"What a dominating poison. It doesn't pale next to the Thousand Poisonous Snake."
"It's because of this poison that the Forest of the Underworld is known as a dangerous place."
The leader of the White Tiger Clan's gaze deepened, "It seems like everyone underestimated the danger level of this place."
"That's true. If it's just the poisonous fog, it can't stop Long Wu Shuang and them." Ling Xian nodded softly. He knew very well how powerful Long Wu Shuang was. Though she hasn't transformed into a saintly dragon, she was still a being of the eighth level.
Plus, she has the royal family's treasures. Normal dangerous places cannot stop her.
"I won't say anything unnecessary. I just hope that you will remember your name and return safely." The leader of the White Tiger Clan spoke in a low voice, finding it hard to hide his guilt.
To save the Fiend Star, Ling Xian sacrificed his eyes. Now, he had to make a move to save the people sent by the seven royal kinds. Why wouldn't he feel guilty?
"Don't worry. Not only will I return safely, but I will also bring the Grass of Completion and Long Wu Shuang and them."
Ling Xian softly smiled. The True Fire of Purity rose, making him look like the God of Fire that descended into the mortal world. He was majestic and untouchable.
"It really is the True Fire of Purity that can counter all poisons." The leader of the White Tiger Clan revealed a smile and sighed in relief.
With this fire, at least Ling Xian won't die to the poisonous fog.
"If I don't come out after 10 days, then you can think of something."
Ling Xian had a smile on his lips, "Alright, I am going in."
Then, he descended from the sky and entered the Forest of the Underworld.
