42: An opportunity that just landed right on my doorstep? How could such a good thing happen?
"Someone is here."
At the same time the two people discovered Su Yuan and Xiao Yan, Su Yuan also spotted the two figures in the valley.
"Xiao Yan, be careful. Keep an eye on these human Beastmasters."
Upon seeing the two, Su Yuan whispered to Xiao Yan.
In the wild, it's not just Vicious Beasts that are dangerous; strange Beastmasters are, too.
Sometimes out here, human Beastmasters are even more dangerous than the Vicious Beasts in the wild.
Hearing Su Yuan's warning, Xiao Yan nodded, its eyes fixed vigilantly on the man and woman not far away.
Just at this moment, the two people below summoned their own flying Beastmasters and flew toward Su Yuan.

"Two flying Beastmasters, one at Awakening-level 6, one at Awakening-level 7. Both of them also have C-grade talents. If they join forces, their strength won't be weaker than mine."
As Su Yuan watched the pair's Beastmasters fly over, he swept his gaze across them, instantly discerning all the information about their Beastmasters.
Their talents were also revealed to him by his Heavenly Revelation Divine Eye.
After discerning their strength, Su Yuan had Xiao Yan emit a highly threatening hiss toward the front, warning the other party not to come any closer.
At the same time, he deliberately had Xiao Yan release its Awakening-level 4 Aura.
"An Awakening-level 4 Beastmaster. Although we don't know the quality of this guy's beast, a mere Awakening-level 4 Beastmaster is someone we two can easily handle!"
Feeling the Awakening-level 4 Aura erupting from Xiao Yan, the two Beastmasters thought to themselves.
Looking at the vigilant expression on Su Yuan's face, the man on the left immediately wore a kind smile and waved at Su Yuan, saying:
"Brother, there's no need to be so tense. My sister and I came here because we have an Opportunity to share with you!"
"We discovered a priceless treasure. How about we join forces and split it equally?"
While speaking, the two of them had already flanked Su Yuan from the left and right, surrounding him.
"Split the treasure?"
"Heh..."
Hearing the man's words, Su Yuan sneered inwardly.
There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
If there really were benefits, even he would absolutely not share them with a stranger.
Su Yuan would never believe the words of the stranger before him.
Furthermore, the other party had already surrounded him from the left and right; this posture didn't look like they wanted to share benefits at all.
"The two of them must have been waiting here for a long time. Since they didn't directly launch a sneak attack on me, they probably aren't highway robbers."
"Perhaps, as they said, there really is some treasure ahead."
Facing their encirclement, Su Yuan did not panic; instead, he lowered his head and pondered.
Immediately, he cast his gaze toward the direction where the two had originally been.
The Heavenly Revelation Divine Eye pierced through the layers of toxic mist in the valley, and Su Yuan could see the situation a thousand meters away clearly.
[Poison Soul Fruit Tree: 5th-order Elementary Heaven And Earth Treasure, can gestate the 4th-order Elementary Heaven And Earth Treasure 'poison soul fruit'. It ripens every three years and can produce a hundred fruits at a time.]
[poison soul fruit (Mature): 4th-order Elementary Heaven And Earth Treasure, a rare poison-type spirit fruit that can assist poison-type Vicious Beasts in completing their evolution and significantly boost the strength of poison-type Vicious Beasts.]
Soon, a black fruit tree over ten meters tall appeared in Su Yuan's line of sight.
On this black fruit tree, it was laden with dozens to a hundred dark red fruits, each the size of a palm, with grey patterns on their skin.
It was precisely the 4th-order Elementary Heaven And Earth Treasure, the 'poison soul fruit'.
"There is actually a Poison Soul Fruit Tree ahead, and it has so many mature poison soul fruits!"
"Could the Opportunity these two mentioned be this Poison Soul Fruit Tree a thousand meters away?"
"If that's really the case, then it truly counts as a great Opportunity."
After Su Yuan discovered the Poison Soul Fruit Tree a thousand meters away, a flash of brilliance crossed his eyes.
The value of a single 4th-order Elementary poison soul fruit is no worse than a Rare-quality beast egg, although it doesn't compare to the sacred fire fruit Su Yuan previously obtained in the Molten Volcano Mountains.
However, the market value of a single poison soul fruit is as high as four million federal currency.
And based on Su Yuan's estimation, there are at least sixty or more poison soul fruits on the Poison Soul Fruit Tree ahead.
All the poison soul fruits combined are worth nearly 250 million federal currency.
250 million federal currency is a massive fortune for any Awakening-level Beastmaster, enough to make Awakening-level Beastmasters go crazy.
But soon, Su Yuan calmed down.
"No, that's not right. If the two people in front of me really had discovered that Poison Soul Fruit Tree, they definitely would have already picked all the poison soul fruits on it."
"Since they haven't made a move yet, there must be something blocking them, preventing them from successfully picking those poison soul fruits!"
"The place where I previously found the sacred fire fruit in the Molten Volcano Mountains had Nether Fire Serpents guarding it. This Poison Soul Fruit Tree is even more precious than the sacred fire fruit, so it must also have guarding Vicious Beasts."
"A Vicious Beast capable of making an Awakening-level 6 and an Awakening-level 7 Beastmaster afraid to act rashly must have extraordinary strength."
After calming down, Su Yuan quickly determined that there must be powerful Vicious Beasts guarding the vicinity of the Poison Soul Fruit Tree, which was why the two didn't dare to approach easily.
Subsequently, Su Yuan continued to use the Heavenly Revelation Divine Eye, looking around the Poison Soul Fruit Tree.
Soon, he discovered the clues.
Near the Poison Soul Fruit Tree a thousand meters ahead was a swamp covering an area of over ten thousand square meters.
Through the Heavenly Revelation Divine Eye's ability to discern all things, Su Yuan also discovered that beneath these swamps, which were emitting toxic smoke and bubbles, were toad-like creatures the size of calves lurking within.

"Good grief, I was wondering why these two didn't dare to act rashly; there are so many Awakening-level Swamp Poison Frogs guarding the vicinity of this Poison Soul Fruit Tree!"
Upon discovering the Swamp Poison Frogs lurking beneath the swamp near the Poison Soul Fruit Tree, Su Yuan was startled.
He then looked at the two on his left and right, and after carefully observing them, he noticed traces of swamp stains on their clothes.
Clearly, the two had already tried to pick the poison soul fruits in the center of the swamp.
However, judging by their appearance, plus the fact that their Beastmasters were both lightly injured, it was likely that their attempt had failed.
"We've been waiting for so long. I wonder what you think of my proposal just now, brother?"
Seeing that Su Yuan didn't answer and was even constantly sizing up the two siblings, the leading man remained silent for a long time before speaking to Su Yuan with some impatience.
