The undead wasps were buzzing and moving around with no specific purpose, their empty blank eyes wandering aimlessly, but as soon as they ca closer to the group of people, they suddenly thrumd with energy and life force.
Among the small group standing in the tunnel, Xavier was the first one to respond as he instantaneously waved his long sword and a dozen wasps fell down to the ground limp and lifeless.
SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT
Their almost dead and decomposed body exploded on touching the ground, leaving splatters of green substance.
But Tang Yue knew that it was a toxic green substance.
Since she was standing closest to Xavier, minute drops of the green liquid had splashed on her slightly and she received a familiar notification.
Ding. Poison resistance has been upgraded
Ding. Poison resistance has been upgraded
The snake's erald eyes imdiately glistened with interest.
She had already run out of things that could improve her venom further and this green decomposed bodily fluid surprisingly still seed to be effective.
So she needed to use this opportunity.
"Cough. Cough. Your highness, these seem to be low leveled beasts. Shall I kill them next ti?" She promptly spoke out and stepped forward in front of Xavier.
The elf lazily chuckled. These were not really that dangerous and did not give him any benefits.
So he was more than happy to let soone else do the dirty work.
"Sure go ahead." He mumbled and continued to walk behind her.
As they walked further and further inside, another group of similar looking wasps wandered in.
Tang Yue pro-actively stepped up and slashed at the incoming wasps before they even sensed their presence.
As she was taking care of these two or three at a ti, the old man's nasally voice chid in.
[Hu Hu. You have co to a good place, little snake.]
[Kill it. It will give you the good stuff.]
Huh? Does it give sothing other than the poison upgrade? Tang Yue wondered as she quickly slashed the remaining wasps into two halves.
Even though they were clearly already dead, the wasps still flopped about on the ground, splashing toxins everywhere.
Xavier stomped on the one closest to him, crushing it into a paste, and ended the twitching.
"You need to infuse so mana into your sword attack so that you completely disintegrate them." He added.
Tang Yue nodded. She still hadn't comprehended how to infuse mana into sword attacks.
So she materialized tongues of fla on her palm to take care of the struggling and twitching halves lying on the ground.
She didn't notice it before, but this ti as she was finishing off the twitching half-cut wasp bodies, a faint mist-like wisp of energy leaked out of them.
The wisp of energy casually floated around and was soon pulled into Tang Yue's body without any effort on her part.
Ding. Soul strength has been upgraded
Ding. Soul strength has been upgraded
One by one, the notifications started pouring in.
This was a good harvest! Tang Yue grinned. She started excitedly finishing off more and more wasps that ca their way.
The old man's voice also excitedly added. [Absorbing these can strengthen your own soul greatly. Use this opportunity, little snake.]
[But be careful.]
[This looks much more complicated than simply using the dark elent magic to control the undead.]
[In the case of typical undead dark elent magic, the soul would be left untouched and not corroded.]
[But the souls of these wasps are corroded to the extent that they are readily pulled in and absorbed by the alive and whole soul such as yours.]
[Sothing fishy is definitely going on here.]
Xavier had also noticed this unusual occurrence by now, but he didn't compete with her.
He was already at Saint realm, so these disintegrated soul wisps wouldn't help him at all.
He stepped aside and allowed her to kill every single wasp that ca their way, thereby absorbing their almost faded soul wisp.
The elf couldn't help but admire how the snake greedily started taking in every soul wisp insight without any hesitation. She couldn't care less about sharing with others.
He was amused at her guts!
The rest of the group also noticed this and could easily see the soul wisps coming out of the wasps.
How could they leave all the good stuff to Tang Yue alone?
Tang Xi particularly was restless. The others hesitated since Xavier was present, but Tang Xi quickly stepped forward.
"Aya, I can't let you struggle with everything by yourself, sister. I will help you kill so."
She quickly went ahead and joined Tang Yue at the front lines, finishing off the leftover wasps.
Once the others saw Tang Xi act so boldly, they as well didn't hold back and started walking further ahead to search for more wasps.
Everyone could feel the small wisps of souls being pulled into their own body effortlessly. The one standing closest to the corpse reaped this benefit.
Soon the group started actively running around and hunting for these wasps.
Xavier chuckled and leisurely strolled in the back. He was still not bothered by these.
Admittedly they were pretty useful to the Martial and Emperor realm cultivators but to him, it was nothing.
So he leisurely walked in the back, keeping his eye on the prize that his brother cherished, Tang Yue.
If sothing happened, he was close enough to her to act quickly and help her out.
Not just them, but by now, almost everyone in the gigantic labyrinth had realized the benefits of these low leveled undead beasts and were actively hunting for them.
Fights broke out in several groups. So even fighting with each other's teammates and competing for the sa undead beast.
While the weaker of the horde fought each other for this small benefit and started hunting the different undead beasts that ca their way, Xander and the other elders didn't waste their ti on these small things.
They decimated everything that was on their path in the span of a single breath and headed deeper and deeper into the labyrinth interiors.
