Chapter 1476: Chapter 1474: Spirit Crystal (Third Update)

“Kid, you’re really clueless. Although these Spirit Beasts have reached the Fourth Level, possessing the strength of the Gathering Elixir Realm at eight or nine levels, their potential ends here. At most, they can break through to the Opening Spirit Realm and grow into Fifth Level Spirit Beasts.”

“Spiritual Armor Beast is different. It has great potential. With the Imperial Beast bloodline, if fully nurtured, it can exceed the Ninth Level Spiritual Beast and reach the Emperor Beast level. Even the weakest Emperor Beast possesses the strength of the Nirvana Realm.”

“This kind of strength is considered a true expert in the Ancient Realm. Moreover, any Emperor Beast that truly grows has a great chance of reaching the Life and Death Realm. Do you think these Fourth Level Spirit Beasts can compare to the future potential Life-and-Death Realm Emperor Beast, the Spiritual Armor Beast?”

Long Qian commented.

“They can’t!”

Xiao Yifeng shook his head. Compared to now, these Fourth Level Spirit Beasts might be stronger than the Spiritual Armor Beast, but in the future, they can’t even compete at all.

“Hence, you need to obtain all the Beast Cores from these Spirit Beasts, to enhance the strength of the Spiritual Armor Beast!”

Long Qian continued.

“Understood. By the way, elder, if Little Xiuxiu fully matures, to what extent can it reach?”

Xiao Yifeng couldn’t help but ask.

“It possesses the body of an Asura Beast, a Divine Beast level existence, on par with the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon of my Dragon Clan. When fully matured, it can definitely reach the Dominant Realm!”

Long Qian stated in a serious tone.

“So strong! The Dominant Realm!”

Shock flickered in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes. He couldn’t believe Little Xiuxiu could become so powerful in the future.

An Emperor Beast at the Life-and-Death Realm, and a Divine Beast at the Dominant Realm!

This is truly a billionaire level lineup!

“Stop dreaming, act quickly, or these Spirit Beasts will tear you apart!”

Long Qian quickly reminded him, as a group of Fourth Level Spirit Beasts charged towards Xiao Yifeng, intending to tear him to pieces.

Bang!

Xiao Yifeng swiftly brandished the Sky-Piercing Treasure Mirror, releasing a powerful light from it, enveloping him within.

A defensive shield formed, repelling the group of Spirit Beasts, then Xiao Yifeng wielded the Sky-Piercing Treasure Mirror to massacre the Fourth Level Spirit Beasts.

In just over ten minutes, Xiao Yifeng annihilated all the Fourth Level Spirit Beasts possessing Gathering Elixir Realm eight or nine levels strength, extracting their Beast Cores.

After collecting the Beast Cores, Xiao Yifeng continued onward, seeking Soul-nourishing Grass.

The space within the Ancient Secret Realm is vast. Even with Xiao Yifeng’s clairvoyant eyes scanning within thousands of meters, the Sense Shadow was not seen within his mind.

But along the way, Xiao Yifeng encountered numerous Spiritual Medicines—a pile of First and Second Grade Spiritual Medicines, even plenty of Third Grade Spiritual Medicines. Clearly, the dense Spiritual Energy within the Secret Realm caused frequent births of Spiritual Medicines.

Without any hesitation, Xiao Yifeng collected all the Spiritual Medicines in the Asura Ring, which were essential for enhancing strength and refining elixirs.

Xiao Yifeng was unaware that while frantically searching for the Soul-nourishing Grass, another figure had entered the Ancient Secret Realm.

That figure was Nalan Yunfei.

“So, this is the Ancient Secret Realm?”

Nalan Yunfei murmured, her eyes gleaming brightly. It was apparent she had learned about the Secret Realm from somewhere and decided to enter as well.

“When I fully break through the Opening Spirit Realm, Xiao Yifeng, I will make you lose everything—family, friends, loved ones; I will make them disappear completely. I want you to die amidst endless suffering!”

Nalan Yunfei clenched her hands tightly, her eyes filled with a chilling, terrifying cold light, her body emitting a boundless murderous intent.

Xiao Yifeng remained unaware that Nalan Yunfei had entered the Ancient Secret Realm; he was focused solely on searching for the Soul-nourishing Grass.

A whole day had passed, and besides finding a pile of Spiritual Medicines and various rare herbs, Xiao Yifeng had yet to discover any trace of the Soul-nourishing Grass.

“Kid, go to that mountain ahead, there’s treasure there!”

Eventually, Xiao Yifeng came upon a mountain, where Long Qian instantly guided him. Using clairvoyant eyes to survey the area, he found it filled with abundant and potent energy.

Xiao Yifeng entered the mountain, soon discovering vast quantities of crystal, similar to Spirit Stones, filled with extremely pure energy, different from Spirit Stones.

“Elder, what is it?”

Xiao Yifeng asked, puzzled.

“Kid, you’re in luck. These are Spirit Crystals!”

Long Qian explained.

“Spirit Crystals? What’s that?”

Confusion marked Xiao Yifeng’s expression; he did not know what Spirit Crystals were.

“In the Ancient Realm, martial artists typically stop using Spirit Stones upon reaching the Nirvana Realm, as not even Top-grade Spirit Stones satisfy their cultivation needs. Instead, Spirit Crystals are used.”

“Spirit Crystals contain pure Spiritual Energy Essence, far greater than the energy within Spirit Stones. A single Spirit Crystal takes at least thousands of years to form and comes in Supreme, Superior, Middle, and Inferior grades. One Inferior Spirit Crystal is equal to a thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones.”

“Moreover, the energy within Spirit Crystals is purer, suitable for powerful martial artists. You can imagine the prowess of Spirit Crystals. In the Ancient Realm, only Super Sects and clans with Life-and-Death Realm experts possess them. Other sects, clans, and individuals cannot use Spirit Crystals for cultivation—they rely solely on Spirit Stones.”

Long Qian explained in detail.

“These Spirit Crystals are impressive!”

Xiao Yifeng’s eyes gleamed intensely, surveying the vast quantity of Spirit Crystals.

“The Spirit Crystals here can at least allow several Body Refinement Realm martial artists to practice up to the Ninth Level of Nirvana Realm or even Life-and-Death Realm!”

Long Qian commented.

Instantly, Xiao Yifeng gazed at the mass of Spirit Crystals excitedly.

“Kid, seize this moment to improve your realm. You must reach the Gathering Elixir Realm, at all costs!”

Long Qian urged again.

“Got it!”

Xiao Yifeng nodded and began cultivating with the Spirit Crystals.

As Xiao Yifeng practiced the Nine Stars Tyrant Body Art, the Spirit Crystals’ energy surged wildly into his body.

Immediately, he felt a surge of energy, purer than Top-grade Spirit Stones, filling his entire being, opening all his pores, and causing his power to skyrocket—the effect of Spirit Crystals far surpasses that of Spirit Stones.

In the blink of an eye, half a day passed, and as Xiao Yifeng’s body emitted a booming sound, a terrifying aura surged forth.

His realm instantly progressed from the Fifth Level of Ningxuan Realm to the Sixth Level, consolidating a sixth major spiral inside him. Yet, he did not stop, continuing to absorb the energy of these Spirit Crystals.
