Primordial Cultivator

Chapter 285 - Dead For A Long Time



"How are you so cowardly despite having such a high cultivation base?" Yang Wei blurted out.

He couldn\'t understand the concept of her behavior and her cultivation base.

Even if an alchemy pill could assist one to increase their cultivation base drastically, there should still be some occasion where they threaded on danger before.

However, Zhu Wenqian seemed to be the irregular one as she was frightened by mere skeletons.

Skeletons that were immovable and couldn\'t harm her in any way.

Meanwhile, Zhu Wenqian held a pouty expression as she shouted, "So what if I have a high cultivation base? I\'m always protected by everyone and I sit in a luxurious carriage whenever I go exploring.."

And she continued, "I never have to suffer such a fate like this before. Let alone witness these disgusting and terrifying skeletons."

Yang Wei was rendered speechless by her confession.

\'How did I lose to her in the fight?\' Yang Wei cried inwardly as his motivation to increase his cultivation base just skyrocketed.

If even an amateur like Zhu Wenqian could overpower him with her cultivation base alone then what\'s the point of even solidifying one\'s cultivation realm.

Yang Wei decided to ignore her confession as he focused back on his investigation.

\'These skeletons have been dead for a long time… could they be the cultivators that had ventured into the Anguished Fog and never showed up again?\' Yang Wei pondered over the details of the skeletons.

He didn\'t want to miss a single detail that could help him solve the mystery of exiting the Anguished Fog.

With Yin, there would always be Yang, meaning everything must have a cause and effect.

Thus, if the cause in Yang Wei\'s current situation is the Anguished Fog. Then the effect must be an exit path that would reveal the long-time mystery of the Anguished Fog occurrence.

Sometime later, Yang Wei noticed a distinguishing golden-looking mark in the abdomen area of the skeleton.

"What is that…\'\' Yang Wei mumbled as he knelt down on one knee to see carefully.

Upon further inspection, Yang Wei realized it was some sort of a bite wound- one that had managed to penetrate through its bone marrow.

Yang Wei was dumbfounded as he wondered what kind of creature or magical beasts could deal such a wound to a powerful cultivator.

After all, Yang Wei could tell the durability of the bone marrow and the skeleton itself to be around the Nascent Soul Realm.

A Nascent Soul Realm had nearly an impenetrable body unless they\'re weakened or attacked by something more profound- someone like Xiao Wei who is a battle spirit.

"Zhu Wenqian, can you tell what kind of magical beast could cause that wound?" Yang Wei decided to ask Zhu Wenqian.

Even though Zhu Wenqian can be cowardly sometimes, she should still be at least more knowledgeable than Yang Wei or at least that\'s what Yang Wei had in his mind.

Meanwhile, Zhu Wenqian shook her head as she refused to kneel down to inspect the skeleton.

"N-No, they are too scary and hideous at the same time." Zhu Wenqian shouted as she tilted her head. "There\'s no way this queen would go on her knee to the ground and inspect it."

Yang Wei rolled his eyes as he directly dragged her down and made her sit in his lap.

"Now you\'re not kneeling in the ground so tell me what you can tell about that bite wound." Yang Wei then said.

Zhu Wenqian could feel Yang Wei\'s warmth surrounding her body but she quickly shook her head to brush away the evil thoughts lingering in her mind.

Instead, she decided to inspect the bite wound. Her eyes narrowed as she held a disbelief expression the more she glanced at the wound.

"I-Impossible…" Zhu Wenqian muttered as she unconsciously held Yang Wei closer to her.

"This kind of wound could only be created by that magical beast but it\'s been extinct for a long time already." Zhu Wenqian added.

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow as he was confused at her words.

"Can you explain clearer, Zhu Wenqian?" Yang Wei asked.

He couldn\'t understand a single word she muttered besides knowing that the magical beast is most likely a difficult one to deal with.

Zhu Wenqian swallowed some of her saliva nervously as she held a pale expression on her face.

"Y-Yang Wei… we must get out of the Anguished Fog quickly." Zhu Wenqian uttered as she continued, "There could still be some of those Killer Bees lurking around here, waiting for the opportunity to strike at us."

"Killer Bees? Do you mean those poisonous bees that can damage us once stung by their needles?"

Yang Wei found it hard to believe some Killer Bees could harm a cultivator, let alone pierce their needles through their thick body.

Alas, Zhu Wenqian punched Yang Wei\'s chest lightly as she scolded, "Do you think I\'m talking about some normal Killer Bees? I\'m talking about the mutated Killer Bees that have a cultivation base of a Nascent Soul Realm."

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow. "Your cultivation is higher than the Nascent Soul Realm so we should still be fine."

"Not to mention, I have their natural bane element, the alchemy flame." Yang Wei smiled as he snapped his finger.

Killer Bees may be powerful but they are extremely afraid of fire, especially fire that is controlled by a person with a powerful soul.

With the alchemy flame out, Yang Wei could guarantee no Killer Bees would even dare approach them.

Thus, Yang Wei found it amusing that Zhu Wenqian would be so worked up for a non-dangerous magical beast.

"You must be really ignorant, yang Wei." Zhu Wenqian snorted as she stood up.

"The mutated Killer Bees have a trait that allows them to conceal their presence, meaning they are undetectable until they attack. In addition, they are unafraid of your so-called alchemy flame."
