The group kept their word and cleared out all the mushrooms from those hills. You Yu even collected some soil containing fungal mycelium to see if she could cultivate them later. Besides the mushrooms, she remembered the bamboo forest from earlier. She wondered if there might be bamboo fungus in there.
After stripping the hills of mushrooms, the group headed to the bamboo forest. Sure enough, You Yu found quite a lot of bamboo fungus. Having heard that it made delicious soup, the three seniors swept through the entire forest. Watching them filled with such enthusiasm, You Yu didn't want to compete, so she wandered around nearby. Not far from the edge of the forest, she was suddenly drawn to a cluster of leaves.
She took out a shovel and dug down, uncovering a clump of roots beneath the dirt shortly after. She channeled her Wood Spiritual Energy into it and felt the condition of the roots; her eyes brightened with every passing second.
