Everlasting Chapter 87: Magic Crystal (1/2)

”Good stuffs?” Chen Feng was momentarily taken aback. Although he had inserted his divine sense into the Magic artefact earlier, he was focused on finding the Icespirit Gra.s.ses and did not pay attention to the other items inside.

Ye Ziming took the jade bracelet and waved it lightly, causing a glittering piece of jade stone to appear on the table. However, it was different compared to ordinary jade stones. This one was constantly emitting thick wisps of spiritual energy. Although the spiritual energy it emitted was different from the worldly spiritual energy which permeates every corner of the world, there were some similarities as well.

”What is this? Jade stone? It doesn't look the same,” said Chen Feng, who picked up the piece of jade stone. He could feel wisps of spiritual energy coming out from the jade stone before seeping into his body. It did not take long for his body to absorb and meld the energy into his own primary energy.

”Eh? This should be a form of spiritual energy!” said an intrigued Chen Feng.

”Brother Chen, do you really not recognize this item? Look at it carefully,” said Ye Ziming with a faint smile.

Chen Feng raised the piece of jade stone up as he recalled the information within his mind, attempting to find any image of the jade stone.

”You buffoon! This is a Magic crystal!” Tower's voice suddenly rang out within Chen Feng's mind.

”Magic crystal, right! This is a Magic crystal!” Chen Feng suddenly understood. He had already entered the cultivation world for quite some time now. He had also read up on some of the matters of the cultivation world. Thanks to Tower's reminder, he recalled the origin and function of the jade stone.

Magic crystal. It was a type of spirit stone produced by the world, containing thick, spiritual energy. Cultivators could absorb the spiritual energy within it to practice cultivation. Moreover, these spirit stones could also be used in the forging of items, concoction of pills, creation of arrays, etc.

A piece of ordinary Magic crystal, despite being of the same size as a Basic Yang Pill, was the equivalent of 100 Basic Yang Pills. Some parts of the cultivation world used Magic crystals as currency.

”So, it is a Magic crystal. This is a really good thing,” said Chen Feng happily.

”That is right, this is a Magic crystal. A piece of Magic crystal is worth 100 Basic Yang Pills. Furthermore, it is best used for cultivation. Tsk tsk!” As Ye Ziming spoke, he waved his hand again.

Shua!

A small hill appeared in the courtyard. It was made out of Magic crystals.

”I have calculated it. There is a total of 30,000 pieces of Magic crystals,” said Ye Ziming.

”Siii!”

Chen Feng sucked in a breath of cold air. 30,000 Magic crystals? That meant 3 million Basic Yang Pills. With so many Magic crystals, he could buy some of the things he needed.

The three of them stepped forward in excitement. They could feel thick waves of energy rise up from the courtyard. Soon, the energy filled the entire courtyard.

With a wave of his hand, Ye Ziming set up a layer of barrier to block the spiritual energy from escaping.

”I also noticed something. There is a peculiar aura emanating off these crystals. If I am not mistaken, these Magic crystals are freshly-produced crystals,” Ye Ziming suddenly said.

”Freshly-produced? What do you mean?” Chen Feng thought of something.

”Magic crystal mine! A Magic crystal mine! That Liu Yuntian surely knows where this Magic crystal mine is. A pity! A pity! We should not have killed him so quickly. We should have left him alive,” Lu Ta, who stood beside him, cried out.

”Yes, a Magic crystal mine. However, Liu Yuntian's backer is Nine Firmaments Palace, who runs many mines as part of its business operations. It is not rare for it to have Magic crystal mines. What I am wondering right now is, given Liu Yuntian's lack of cultivation talent, how did he get accepted as a disciple by one of Nine Firmaments Palace elders? Not just that, he was even bestowed a Prized artefact. Most importantly, he was carrying around so much Magic crystals with him. Tsk tsk! For a little disciple like him to be carrying around so much Magic crystals, Nine Firmaments Palace is quite rich,” said Ye Ziming with a smile.

”Could it be? The Magic crystals are from Purplecloud Sky Grotto's mine?” Chen Feng suddenly spoke up.

”There is that possibility. However, even if they do find a Magic crystal mine, existences the likes of Six Great Sky Grottoes are not strong enough to hold it. They can only hand it over to their backers. In this case, it is the Nine Firmaments Palace. If so, we now have an explanation as to why Nine Firmaments Palace would accept Liu Yuntian as a disciple,” said Ye Ziming.

”However, that is but a speculation,” said Chen Feng.

”Back then, we really should have let Liu Yuntian live. However, since our speculations brought us to this conclusion, we should go check out Purplecloud Sky Grotto's territory in the future,” said Ye Ziming with a smile.

”Agreed, I have no objections,” replied Lu Ta with a beaming smile.

”For the time being, we should avoid bringing these Magic crystals out to avoid suspicion. Do not forget, Liu Yuntian died by our hands,” said Ye Ziming.

”Naturally, I still want to keep these Magic crystals for cultivation purposes,” Chen Feng replied happily.

There was a total of 30,000 Magic crystals. Thus, each of them got 10,000 Magic crystals. It was the equivalent of 1 million Basic Yang Pills. For a cultivator at Chen Feng's level, this was a windfall.

”Brother Chen, aren't you still lacking one final medicinal herb? Soulguard Flower. Since we have nothing to do in particular right now, let's take a stroll through the city. We might be able to find something,” suggested Ye Ziming.
