Finally, we've been waiting for this kid!

"No need to chase after it. Our target this time isn't the Giant Rock Tremor Frog, but this Poison Soul Fruit Tree."

Seeing this, Su Yuan gently patted Xiao Yan's head and said to it.

Upon hearing Su Yuan's order, Xiao Yan had no choice but to let the giant rock frog escape.

And just like that, the giant rock frog disappeared from sight in a few leaps.

"Next, we need to dig out the heartwood of this Poison Soul Fruit tree."

After the giant rock frog had disappeared without a trace, Su Yuan turned his attention to the Poison Soul Fruit tree not far away.

With a single glance, the Heavenly Eye of Revelation located the heartwood of the Poison Soul Fruit tree.

Then he commanded Xiao Yan to use the Annihilation Fire Eye to cut open the trunk of the Poison Soul Fruit Tree.

Finally, Su Yuan jumped onto the Poison Soul Fruit tree, drew the dagger from his waist, and forcefully pried open the wood near the heartwood of the Poison Soul Fruit tree to remove the heartwood.

"With this Poison Soul Wood Heart, there's no need to spend time searching for the main material for the first stage of the tree's evolution."

"As for the other auxiliary materials, they are all third or fourth tier materials. Once I leave the secret realm, I can sell the sixty-odd Poison Soul Fruits and raise enough funds to buy the remaining materials!"

After obtaining the Poison Soul Wood Heart, Su Yuan said with delight.

Immediately, he returned to Xiao Yan's back and put the Poison Soul Wood Heart into the bag on Xiao Yan's back.

"It's been almost a week since we entered the voodoo jungle, it's time to leave."

"The results of this trip have exceeded my expectations!"

"Little Flame, Big Tree, let's go!"

After doing all this, Su Yuan took out the Beast Taming Bracelet and put the tree into it.

Xiao Yan also flapped its wings and took flight, carrying Su Yuan towards the entrance of the secret realm they had come from.

……

"Big brother, second brother, it's been almost a week, and we still haven't seen that kid. Could he have died at the hands of the ferocious beasts in the Voodoo Forest?"

"The three of us have been guarding this place for so long, and we've already used up almost twenty antidote pills."

"These antidote pills cost ten thousand Federal Credits each!"

Near the entrance to the Voodoo Jungle, the bald third brother scratched his greasy scalp and said with displeasure.

Since entering the Voodoo Secret Realm, they have not found any trace of Su Yuan.

Hearing the third brother's complaint, the bald eldest brother's expression also turned sour.

The three brothers accepted the mission to kill Su Yuan in the Voodoo Forest, but they haven't even seen the target yet, and they've already spent nearly 200,000 before receiving their reward.

He was quite frustrated.

"Wait a little longer. If that kid still doesn't show up in another week, we'll go back and tell the employer that we've gotten rid of him."

"A kid who has just broken through to the Awakening level cannot possibly stay in this Voodoo Forest for this long by himself."

"In two weeks, that kid could very well have died at the hands of an awakened-level ferocious beast in the Voodoo Forest."

Taking a deep breath, the bald leader turned to his second and third brothers and said.

"Um!"

Upon hearing his words, both the second and third brothers nodded and did not refuse.

"Big brother, someone's here!"

At this moment, the second son, who was the only one still with hair, looked at the distant sky and immediately spoke.

At the same time, he pointed in the direction of the person who came.

His words also perked up the eldest and third brothers.

Everyone turned their gaze in the direction he was pointing.

But none of the three were particularly surprised.

The three brothers have been guarding the entrance to the secret realm for so many days, and have seen dozens of groups of beast tamers entering and leaving the secret realm.

At first, they were incredibly enthusiastic when they saw someone coming, carefully observing whether the person was their target.

But after several days without finding their target, the three of them had long lost the initial excitement of guarding the entrance to the secret realm.

The three brothers, who were used to this, could now calmly look at anyone who came to the entrance of the secret realm.

However, this time, the three brothers' eyes widened immediately after they looked in the direction of the newcomer.

Because the person appearing in their sight at this moment was none other than Su Yuan, who had recently repelled the Giant Rock Tremor Frog and obtained the Poison Soul Wood Heart.

This was also the target the three of them were going to kill when they entered the Voodoo Jungle.

"Hahaha, speak of the devil, and he appears!"

"That brat has kept us waiting!"

"Brothers, grab your weapons! Let's get him!"

Upon discovering that the newcomer was Su Yuan, the bald leader was overjoyed and immediately ordered his brothers to attack.

"roar!!!"

"Aww—"

……

Without his prompting, the second and third brothers, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately summoned their beasts.

A series of beast roars rang out, and several agile figures suddenly darted out from the jungle near the entrance to the secret realm, blocking the entrance behind them.

At the same time, two figures rapidly flew into the sky and surrounded Su Yuan and Xiao Yan, who had just arrived near the entrance of the secret realm, in the blink of an eye.

Despite the sudden encirclement, Su Yuan remained calm and showed no signs of panic.

Under his divine eye, he had already thoroughly investigated the details of the two beasts in the sky.

……

One is awakened to the sixth level, and the other is awakened to the seventh level.

These two beasts were no threat to Su Yuan whatsoever.

Xiao Yan could easily take care of these guys.

However, Su Yuan also noticed that these beasts belonged to owners, and the beast tamers who controlled them were currently not far from the entrance to the secret realm of the Voodoo Forest.

Moreover, they are three awakened ninth-level beast tamers.

The strongest beast tamers are all land-based beast tamers.

He was currently standing next to the three beast tamers.

"The three awakened ninth-tier beast tamers all possess E-rank shadow talent, lightning talent, and poison talent."

"These three peak-awakening beast tamers guarding the entrance to the secret realm are clearly not to be trifled with."

"Judging from this, they're probably going to rob us on the highway."

After glancing at the three bald brothers below and their respective talents in beast taming, Su Yuan understood everything.

He quickly made a judgment on the three men's behavior, concluding that they were taking advantage of their peak awakened beast tamer strength to rob people of their money near the entrance to the secret realm.

After all, in this voodoo jungle, a beast tamer at the peak of awakening is already the most powerful being.

Three peak-awakened beast tamers working together could roam freely in the Voodoo Forest.

If they were to rob passing beast tamers, they would be virtually unbeatable.

However, Su Yuan's judgment this time was wrong.

The three people at the entrance to the secret realm below were not the robbers he had guessed, but rather people who had specifically entered the Voodoo Forest secret realm to kill him.
