Chapter 454: The Crystal Source Purple Essence

Translator: CatatoPatch Editor: 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 .

The crack was quite small, and after it appeared, extremely resplendent lights began to blare out of it, soaring up high .

A dense spiritual energy and extremely strong fragrance permeated out of the crystal source .

It was a scorching hot fragrance .

A fragrance?

Bu Fang’s pupils dilated . Did this crystal source really contain a fragrance? Did it contain some delicious dish? Bu Fang pondered in extreme curiosity, while Shrimpy, who looked intoxicated, crawled out from the crystal source .

Its body swayed in mid-air and arrived at Bu Fang’s shoulder . Then, it found a cozy spot, lay down and fell asleep .

Bu Fang lifted the remaining crystal source and found it slightly heavy . He shook it a little and heard the sound of some liquid sloshing within it . It was obvious that Shrimpy hadn’t consumed much of the liquid, seeing as it was quite lacking compared to Blacky .

That dog’s appetite was extremely terrifying .

Bu Fang squinted his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled upwards . He took out a porcelain bowl from his system’s dimensional storage . He began to pour all of the liquid in the crystal source into the bowl . As he tipped the crystal source, a dark purple liquid slowly flowed out of it . The liquid was overflowing with light and energy .

Burble!

Coincidentally, the remaining liquid in the crystal source was just enough to fill the porcelain bowl to its brim . A strong and alluring fragrance emanated from the liquid, and Bu Fang couldn’t help leaning in close and sniffing it .

“The Crystal Source Purple Essence: a tenth grade spirit medicine . It is an extremely precious ingredient which can help one recover from his injuries; it could also help to strengthen cultivation and improve the strength of fleshly body . . . It can only materialize in the crystal sources in big crystal mines . It could also repair the injuries of one’s soul; it could also let spirit beasts continue to evolve . “

As Bu Fang was looking at the liquid, the system’s solemn voice resounded in his mind as it began to introduce the liquid to him .

“This is a tenth grade spirit medicine?” Bu Fang was quite dumbfounded, and he found it somewhat quite unbelievable . He never would have expected that he would be capable of obtaining a Crystal Source Purple Essence just like that . Didn’t they say that tenth grade spirit medicines were extremely rare?

As Bu Fang gazed at the purple liquid in the porcelain bowl, which was emanating a fragrance, his desire to have it began to increase . He licked his lips, and his eyes lit up . He couldn’t bear leaning in closer to the bowl because he desired to take a sip of it .

Slurp!

Bu Fang took a sip, and the Crystal Source Purple Essence flowed down his mouth .

Bu Fang first felt every pore on his body open up, and steam gushed out of them . Then, Bu Fang’s eyes turned bloodshot .

It was extremely spicy .

This was what Bu Fang felt . Rather than calling the Crystal Source Purple Essence a spirit medicine, it was more appropriate to call it wine, or maybe the mixture of wine and plum soup . This Crystal Source Purple Essence’s taste was like that of a strong wine, and it also had the flavor of a sour and sweet plum soup .

Although the essence was incapable of strengthening Bu Fang’s cultivation, its spiritual energy still entered his body and improved his constitution and flesh .

It was no longer surprising that Blacky fell asleep after drinking it . This was because Crystal Source Purple Essence possessed the effect of healing one’s soul injuries and helping spirit beasts evolve .

Bu Fang smacked his lips and controlled his impulse and desire to drink another mouthful of it . He placed the Purple Essence into his system’s dimensional storage . This was definitely a good object, so Bu Fang didn’t want to waste it .

If he could process it, it would surely become an extremely precious and fine wine .

There were many shattered crystal beasts on the island outside .

An expert whose whole body was soaked in blood cried out loudly, then he took out a crystal source . The expert proceeded to stir his energy and carefully opened it .

Many experts curiously watched the expert open the crystal source .

They were all curious about the kind of amazing treasure within these crystal sources that was worth the protection of Divine crystal beasts .

However, after the expert opened the crystal source, he was so depressed that he almost coughed blood; the crystal source was empty . He didn’t see any treasure inside it as this was a solid crystal source .

The expert who had taken the other crystal source was wild with joy . If the person that took the first crystal source didn’t find anything within it, then it meant that the crystal source in his hand would surely contain something impressive .

Thus, he opened the crystal source in a hurry . This expert was still fine as long as the object inside was somewhat valuable . However, its value wasn’t worth the price that they paid for it . Everyone there was dumbstruck for a moment, then they began to clamor .

Since the two crystal sources didn’t have any good stuff in them, then it would surely be in the crystal source that they had forgotten .

The eyes of the surrounding experts turned red; they all looked at each other briefly before charging back toward the cave .

At that moment, a thin and tall youth was slowly walking out of the cave .

Some of the experts looked at Bu Fang in surprise, but they didn’t pay much attention to him and contained rushing toward the last crystal source .

No one of them expected the development . They had all been mistaken because the last crystal source really was the most important of the three crystal sources .

Bu Fang doubtfully looked at the experts who hurriedly passed him; he was somewhat confused by their actions .

Why did they go back into the mine again?

Bu Fang was taken aback, but it was only for a moment; he was already disinclined to care anymore about them . He continued to walk toward the island outside . He pushed his spirit ship, and as it entered into the sea, waves rose up . Bu Fang sat above it and stirred his true energy, prompting it to swiftly charge forward .

When Bu Fang was driving his spirit ship and was just about to leave, the experts who had rushed back into the mine all came out .

When they saw Bu Fang and his small ship, they began to shout:

“It’s that kid! We definitely should not let him run away . The kid has taken the third crystal source . “

Rumble!

The sound of countless spirit ships being pushed into water resounded, and Bu Fang couldn’t help but turn his head in astonishment . When he turned his head, his pupils immediately dilated .

They were many experts, who had extended their necks and widened their eyes, who entered their spirit ships and chased after him .

Bu Fang was scared; he turned his head and stirred his true energy, speeding up his ship .

“Are those people retarded? Why are they trying to scare me?”
