Chapter 454: The Crystal Source Purple Essence

Translator: CatatoPatchEditor: Vermillion

This island, unexpectedly, had such a tremendous crystal mine.

The three glowing crystal sources were like three stars glowing in a pitch-black night sky; they attracted the gazes of everyone present, causing greed to flicker in their eyes.

Just the fact that the three crystal sources were protected by three Divine Realm crystal beasts showed how precious the objects hidden within the crystal sources were.

Everyone was excited.

Thunderous roars echoed off the walls as all the experts, who entered the crystal mine through the passages, shot out and went after the crystal sources.

Greed was the source of all evil; their greed attracted the attention of the guarding crystal beasts. Countless scarlet rays engulfed the cave, and in the next moment, a storm of energy surged up. All the crystal beasts awakened emitted deafening roars.

Bang! Bang!

The crystal beasts took a leaf from the experts' book and charged out as well, and both sides collided, resulting in a battle.

Although the crystal beasts were extremely swift, there wasn't any weakling among the experts present; they had all reached the Divine Realm.

Thus, both sides were evenly matched at that moment.

Bu Fang sized up the experts and discovered that he didn't recognize any of their faces. He didn't choose to join them and fight; instead, he just watched them from far away.

Shrimpy, who was on his shoulder, suddenly moved. Like a cat that had just perceived a fishy scent, Shrimpy stood upright, rolled its compound eyes around and waved its sickles.

It seemed quite excited.

What happened to it? Bu Fang was slightly surprised and confused. He turned around and realized that Shrimpy had rushed out. It turned into a golden light thread, streaking toward the three crystal sources.

Bu Fang's brows rose up, and he immediately tried to stop Shrimpy, but it was already too late; he could only look on helplessly as the fellow disappeared into the crowd.

Bang!

A crystal beast that had charged at Bu Fang was shattered by a slap from Whitey, turning into countless smaller pieces of crystal which fell to the ground.

The violet glow in Whitey's eyes flickered as the puppet, who wore an armor and had a bulging belly, stood behind Bu Fang.

Buzz...

Shrimpy's body flickered in the air like a thread; its speed was quite astonishing, making it impossible for one to catch a glimpse of it with their naked eyes.

With a ”swoosh” sound, Shrimpy appeared before one of the crystal sources. The fellow rolled its compound eyes, and as if its most primitive instincts had been stimulated, Shrimpy moved its sickles with explosive speed. It charged and disappeared into the crystal source.

The experts and crystal beasts were engrossed in their battle, so no one noticed what had just happened. No one had discovered that a little creature entered one of the crystal sources. They were still fighting as crazily as before.

The crystal beasts were quite powerful; and after only a short while, the cave began to reek with the thick scent of blood. The cave was also littered with crystals from shattered crystal beasts.

Although the battle was tragic and bitter, there was still someone who managed to reach the crystal sources and take one of them.

The crystal source glowed with extremely eye-catching colors.

When the person grabbed the crystal source, he swiftly rushed toward the exit without even looking back, trying to flee from the scene.

The crystal beasts naturally would not let him take away even one of the crystal sources, so some crystal beasts left their opponents and chased after him.

That scene provided an opportunity to the remaining experts; they cooperated and killed a Divine Realm crystal beast, then one of them grabbed a crystal source and swiftly fled the cave.

The battle moved out of this cave and spread to the entire island.

The last crystal source that was taken had a dim radiance. There were extremely feeble spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from it, and with just one look, one could deduce that the crystal source didn't contain any precious object.

Those experts weren't fools; they would not risk their lives for a crystal source that didn't contain anything precious.

Bu Fang was astonished, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes as he looked around the cave that was now completely empty. An odd expression appeared on his face when he looked at the last crystal source.

This was because Shrimpy's aura was emanating from it.

He clearly recalled how he had found Shrimpy in a crystal source which he had opened.

Back then, out of the three crystal sources in that crystal mine, one of them contained Shrimpy. As for the other, it seemed like they had been ruined by that lazy Blacky.

So, Bu Fang never knew what they contained.

He only knew that after Blacky ate what it contained, the dog slept off as if it had a stomachache.

And this time, Shrimpy was also like that… What did that crystal source contain?

Bu Fang was quite curious.

He began to walk toward the crystal source, causing the remaining crystal beasts to widen their scarlet eyes and glare at him. They roared, causing strong winds to sweep through the surrounding.

The Black Turtle Constellation Wok appeared on Bu Fang's hand. He waved it casually, and it quickly grew big and soared toward the roaring crystal beasts, crushing them.

Those crystal beasts weren't Divine Beasts, so they were directly crushed by Bu Fang. A loud rumble resounded, and crystal sprinkled down on the ground.

Bu Fang held the Black Turtle Constellation Wok in one hand and leisurely walked toward the crystal source.

He began sizing up the ordinary-looking crystal source curiously.

Suddenly, the crystal source shook slightly, and a small crack appeared on its surface. A small head drilled out of the crack; it was Shrimpy's.
