Chapter 362 - 315 : Evolution Or Word of God (2/2)
Logically, if someone found Star Iron, it had to be in a dangerous place inside the forest. Arthur speculated the existence of a secret Realm or a powerful beast that's protecting some sort of a mine or a treasure.
”This place has a small amount of lingering Yin Energy. I can feel it emanating from the depths of the forest, it's probably a Yin Beast.”
Lucy stated while frowning. It could be a Yin Vein but that was too unlikely as Energy Veins usually provide pure Energy around specific places and would not leak outside. An Energy Vein is something that's born naturally when too much of a specific Energy is accumulated over-time though, in most times, they die before their birth due to exterior circumstances.
Any change in their environment whilst their birth will cause their death, the same applies to when they're alive though the effect weakens by a huge margin.
Without any more time, the couple entered the Wicket Forest with their guard up. A strengthened Dark Barrier enveloped both of them, moreover, both he and Lucy were in a completely other space. Using his Space Bending title, he created a small dimension that could fit both of them, it eliminated their presences and made them practically untraceable by even Sovereigns.
As they delved deeper into the forest, they encountered the first group of cultivators approximatively three kilometers away from the entrance of this eerie place.
Fog covered the sky and the weather was strangely cold, it didn't bother Arthur and Lucy but the weak cultivators would definitely uncomfortable, especially due to the Yin Energy which would affect them if their body unconsciously absorbed a considerable amount of it.
The group was composed of three males and one female. They were all Immortals with the strongest being 8th Grade. They wore the same outfit which indicated they belonged to the same sect or clan.
Their clothes were jet black and had a symbol of a large sword engraved on the top of a mountain. Arthur didn't recognize the symbol and wasn't planning on talking to them. He just casually used Appraisal on them only to find a rather pleasing surprise.

Master Analyzer: A skill similar to 'Appraisal' but consumes Nether Energy or Mana.
Tip : Has a strong chance to enhance the effect of [Appraisal] if the user 'Arthur MoonStar' absorbs it.
Arthur looked at the results of the appraisal then contemplated what to do for a few seconds before he decided to possess Veknur. He'll do it swiftly without the alerting the victim, moreover, since the target was way weaker than him, it'll practically be impossible to be discovered.
Fortunately, the group of cultivators were fighting a weird purple python which was a Heavenly Beast, meaning it equaled a cultivator in the Heavenly Realm but that's just theoretical.
An Immortal Beast can demolish a group of Immortals if they're not careful. Furthermore, a Sovereign can have difficulties defeating a God Beast.
The group of four had flawless coordinations as they attacked from all directions, slowly tiring the python and injured it little by little.
Arthur, who was a distance away, suddenly vanished and appeared next to Veknur only to abruptly become a black whirlpool which entered the target.
This caused Veknur, who was in the middle of the attack, to feel momentarily disoriented thus giving the python to lash out at him with its extreme velocity.
Arthur no more than two seconds inside the foreign body before he left it and returned next to Lucy as if nothing happened.
As for Veknur, he could've sworn he saw a strange black thing fly away from his body but didn't focus much on it due to the dizziness he was feeling and the fresh wound he just suffered...
