Yi Yun came to a clearing and drew out the Thousand Army Saber.
“Cha! Cha! Cha!”
In a split second, he sent three slashes. With the Thousand Army Saber inserted in the ground, Yi Yun smacked the saber’s hilt.
“Peng!”
With an explosion, the ground blasted open!
After the dust settled, Yi Yun brushed aside a thin layer of soil. Under the soil hid a red fruit the size of a fist.
This fruit was like a red crystal and gave off a sweet aroma. On the fruit’s surface, there were small shining particles, like a ripe pomegranate without its exterior.
It was incredible that such a beautiful fruit was growing underground.
There were seven leaves around the fruit and the leaves were dropping and their color dark, as if they were about to wither at any time.
But every leaf was aromatic. In the middle of the leaf, there was a shining, blood-red wavy line.
Yi Yun took a sniff and felt a great aroma rush into his body, which nourished his body. It made his body’s blood warm up and surge.
“This is a Blood Yang Flower! It’s a middle-grade Heaven-ranked herb!” Yi Yun remembered a record of it in the ‘Divine wilderness’ book.
The Blood Yang Flower grew underground and it liked the dense and rich sunlight.
Typically, a Blood Yang Flower’s seeds would take root near a desolate beast’s corpse. When it germinates, it will absorb the desolate beast corpse’s energy to help it grow.
Within a short span of one to two days, it sucks the desolate beast’s corpse’s energy dry, leaving only its skeleton.
This energy would then be stored away for later, the fruit slowly absorbs it, and the energy aids the fruit in its growth.
When the desolate beast’s energy was completely digested, it would sprout out some leaves from underground when the sun was at its fullest and then soak in the extremely thick Yang sunlight!
Once people approached it, it would shrink its leaves back, looking like nothing was there to begin with.
The only thing that could expose the Blood Yang Flower was the pile of desolate bones nearby.
As the energy was fully absorbed by the Blood Yang Flower, the desolate bones would look like ordinary bones, making it difficult for people to recognize them.
