"Mm, there's an unfamiliar scent in the air."
After traveling for more than a week and entering the Youlan Kingdom, Xiao Yi Xian twitched her nose, catching a wonderfully fresh scent.
"That's the sea breeze. I actually quite like it."
Sun Buxiao pinched his nose as well, then took out a map and spread it on the ground.
"We're here, on the southern side of the Youlan Kingdom. A little farther west is the sea. Follow the coast north, and we'll reach our destination."

The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast was essentially the Woeful Poison Body of dragon-type magical beasts. It could also grow stronger by consuming poison, so its power was beyond question.

Sun Buxiao clenched his hand, and black poisonous mist billowed out, enveloping him completely.
Xiao Yi Xian followed suit, wrapping herself in purple mist.
Hai Bodong broke off a piece of Netherworld Insect Molt and held it in his mouth.

A giant dragon lying in a muddy pool seemed to sense something. It raised its enormous head and looked south.
"A delicious scent... food...!"
"So poisonous. How delicious...!"
Smelling the scent that had suddenly appeared in the air, it nearly began to drool.
