Chapter 2712: Chapter 2712: The Legendary ‘Divine Crystal’
"So that’s how it is."
After Wyatt Barnes explained, Leilany suddenly realized.
"Leilany... do you not use Immortal Stones to cultivate?"
Wyatt Barnes asked with a wry smile.
In his view, since Leilany is already a ’Love Rowan Upper Immortal’, she must have used Immortal Stones during her cultivation process.
Otherwise, how could she have achieved such cultivation in less than a hundred years?
Wyatt Barnes had previously used his Divine Sense to probe Leilany and, after perceiving her blood and flesh aura, he could determine:
Like him, Leilany was not even a hundred years old!
"No..."
Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s inquiry, Keer shook her head with an innocent and childlike expression.
Hearing this, the four members of the Spacewood Family were collectively stunned once again, speechless...
No Immortal Stones?
How on earth did this little aunt cultivate?
Without using Immortal Stones, she was able to cultivate to the level of ’Love Rowan Upper Immortal’!
"Leilany, wouldn’t your cultivation be slow without using Immortal Stones?"
Wyatt Barnes frowned and said, "It shouldn’t be like this... Your mother surely wouldn’t deny you Immortal Stones to aid your cultivation. Typically, she should’ve provided you with Immortal Stones and Pill Medicine to assist your cultivation."
"After all, not using Immortal Stones and Pill Medicine would slow down your cultivation speed."
Although he didn’t know what kind of person Leilany’s mother was,
Given that her mother left such an illusion to trap him, it showed she wasn’t an ordinary person.
Even if she wasn’t human and was an Immortal Beast, she certainly wasn’t any ordinary Immortal Beast either.
Logically, an Immortal Beast of that level would surely give her daughter Immortal Stones and Pill Medicine to aid her cultivation.
"Mother did give me Pill Medicine for cultivation, and the medicinal power is still in my body... Also, she gave me this. But, this isn’t an Immortal Stone..."
Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Leilany still had a childlike innocence on her face.
As she spoke, she pulled the necklace from her neck, revealing the pendant to everyone, including Wyatt Barnes.
The pendant of the necklace is a fully enclosed, small round box.
As Leilany pressed a button on the side of the small round box, the box opened instantly. A flash of light mesmerized Wyatt Barnes and the others.
Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!
...
With Leilany opening the small round box, after a flash of light, vast, almost liquified spiritual energy emanated from the box, transforming into a sea that swept through the entire Spacewood Family’s grand hall in the blink of an eye.
It was as if, in an instant, the Spacewood Family’s grand hall had turned into a ’Holy Land’ for cultivation!
"This spiritual energy... isn’t it too exaggerated?"
Feeling the spiritual energy filling the Spacewood Family’s grand hall, Wyatt Barnes was dumbfounded.
Now, the spiritual energy in the hall was denser by hundreds or thousands of times than that in the cultivation stone chamber in the depths of the County Governor’s Mansion of Nine Nether County where he had been before.
He tried absorbing the spiritual energy, but found he had reached his absorption limit.
Which is to say:
At his current cultivation level, cultivating here would be a waste.
Regarding cultivation environment, although richer spiritual energy is better, there is a limit to how much spiritual energy can be absorbed at certain cultivation levels.
Just like now, Wyatt Barnes encountered such a situation.
"This cultivation environment... feels like even a Love Rowan Upper Immortal could reach their cultivation limit here?"
Wyatt Barnes thought internally.
A Love Rowan Upper Immortal, whether cultivating in this environment or one better, would achieve the same outcome.
Because as a Love Rowan Upper Immortal, there’s a limit to how much spiritual energy they can absorb.
And this environment allows a Love Rowan Upper Immortal to reach that limit.
With this environment, a Love Rowan Upper Immortal doesn’t need to seek a better environment for cultivation.
Because, the cultivation effect of this environment is identical to any better one for them.
Of course, if an Immortal Lord were to cultivate in this environment, they wouldn’t reach their limit and could seek a better one...
"Oh! I nearly forgot. Cultivation techniques matter too!"
"I almost overlooked this... In the myriad planes, higher-ranked cultivation techniques allow faster and more extensive spiritual energy absorption."
Realizing this, Wyatt Barnes once again felt like a ’frog in a well’.
And he also acknowledged that his previous assumptions were based solely on cultivating with ’Earth Rank techniques’.
"Moreover, this is even with the dispersed vast spiritual energy from the crystal in Leilany’s necklace filling just the grand hall of the Spacewood Family... If Leilany were to directly absorb the spiritual energy from that crystal in her cultivation..."
Thinking this far, Wyatt Barnes was somewhat afraid to continue.
Even if Leilany is a ’Love Rowan Upper Immortal’, cultivating with ’Heaven Rank techniques’, directly absorbing spiritual energy from that crystal, she should still reach the utmost limit of her spiritual energy absorption, right?
"Leilany, close it."
As Wyatt Barnes spoke, Leilany also closed the circular box section of her pendant, severing its connection with the outside, causing the Spacewood Family hall to cease receiving replenishment of spiritual energy from heaven and earth...
Because of this, as the spiritual energy in the Spacewood Family hall continued to be transmitted outward, it also began to thin continuously.
Though Leilany had closed the box.
Wyatt Barnes had clearly seen what was inside earlier, a crystal entirely transparent, resembling the ’diamond’ from his past life, yet with subtle differences.
Of course, a diamond itself does not contain spiritual energy.
This was something Wyatt Barnes discovered during his previous return to Earth.
Hence, that crystal merely looks similar to a diamond, but is fundamentally different, an utter difference akin to clouds and mud!
"Immortal Crystal... that’s an Immortal Crystal..."
The Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor, who had been greedily absorbing the liquid spiritual energy within the Spacewood Family hall, finally raised his head with a look of ecstasy after the spiritual energy became thin.
Upon glancing once more at the necklace on Leilany’s neck, his eyes filled with fervor and greed.
"Hmph!"
Only upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s cold snort did the Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor come to his senses, his face changing instantly, hurriedly withdrawing his gaze.
The other three members of Spacewood Family also came to their senses, prostrating on the ground, not daring to make a sound.
It was only then they remembered:
That Immortal Crystal belongs to a ’Love Rowan Upper Immortal’ level powerhouse!
"You say that’s an Immortal Crystal? As far as I know... even ’Top-grade Immortal Crystal’ wouldn’t have such an exaggerated effect, would it?"
Wyatt Barnes gave the Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor a faint glance and asked.
He knew about Immortal Crystals.
He had read about them in some memory Immortal Talismans, knowing Immortal Crystals are found in top-grade Immortal Stone veins, with a low probability of occurring, far lower than the appearance of top-grade Immortal Stones in top-grade Immortal Stone veins.
Because of that, a single Immortal Crystal can be exchanged for a thousand top-grade Immortal Stones.
In truth, the spiritual energy contained in one Immortal Crystal is equivalent at most to the spiritual energy in one or two hundred top-grade Immortal Stones, but they are rare and precious!
And the Immortal Crystal mentioned here is merely a ’lower-grade Immortal Crystal.’
Above top-grade Immortal Stone veins, there are lower-grade Immortal Crystal veins, rich in lower-grade Immortal Crystals, with a chance of producing middle-grade Immortal Crystals...
Like Immortal Stones, Immortal Crystals are divided into lower-grade, middle-grade, upper-grade, and top-grade.
But the exchange ratio between grades of Immortal Crystals is entirely different from that of Immortal Stones.
The exchange ratio for Immortal Stones between grades is ’one to ten,’ one top-grade Immortal Stone equivalent to ten upper-grade Immortal Stones, equal to one hundred middle-grade Immortal Stones, equal to one thousand lower-grade Immortal Stones.
Whereas for Immortal Crystals, the exchange ratio between grades is ’one to a hundred,’ one top-grade Immortal Crystal is equivalent to one hundred upper-grade Immortal Crystals, equal to ten thousand middle-grade Immortal Crystals, equal to one million lower-grade Immortal Crystals.
According to Wyatt Barnes:
In the mid-tier Immortal Kingdom ’Cloud Rock Immortal Kingdom’ where he currently resides, there are no lower-grade Immortal Crystal mines.
Furthermore, even in those upper-tier Immortal Kingdoms, there are no lower-grade Immortal Crystal mines.
Of course, although upper-tier Immortal Kingdoms don’t have lower-grade Immortal Crystal mines, the number of top-grade Immortal Stone mines they control far exceeds that of mid-tier and lower-tier Immortal Kingdoms.
"The master is wise."
In response to Wyatt Barnes’s inquiry, the Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor quickly nodded, then continued, "If I’m not mistaken..."
"The Immortal Crystal on the pendant of this Love Rowan Upper Immortal master is a ’Divine-grade Immortal Crystal,’ also known as ’Divine Crystal,’ produced once every ten thousand years from each top-grade Immortal Crystal vein!"
Divine Crystal!
After this statement from the Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor, the breathing of the other three members of the Spacewood Family also became rapid in an instant.
To them:
Divine Crystal is a legendary existence, an unattainable treasure.
"I, Ruben Spacewood, to witness the Divine Crystal in this life, and even feel the majesty of the Divine Crystal... there’s nothing left to regret in this life."
The head of the Spacewood Family lamented.
"With our Spacewood Family’s tier and level... to witness a Divine Crystal, even if we die at this moment, there’s indeed nothing to regret."
Echoed the Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor.
"Divine Crystal?!"
"From a top-grade Immortal Crystal vein, produced once every ten thousand years?!"
Upon hearing the Spacewood Family Elder Ancestor’s words, Wyatt Barnes’s pupils cannot help but contract.
According to him:
Across any one of the eighty-one celestial planes in the ninety-nine celestial planes, the number of top-grade Immortal Crystal veins does not exceed ten.
This means:
Within one celestial plane, on average, a ’Divine Crystal’ appears once every thousand years!
"Leilany’s mother... who exactly is she? An Immortal Beast ’Mystical Fox,’ probably not an ordinary Immortal Beast either!"
This must be a joke!
Can an ordinary Immortal Beast leave a ’Divine Crystal’ for her daughter?
Wyatt Barnes also recalled:
Leilany previously mentioned to him her mother is a ’Mystical Fox,’ and she herself is the ’Maiden Blaze Ice Fox,’ a rarity in the Mystical Fox lineage in a million years!
