Cyrus and Fire Leopard Queen entered the heart of the mountain where the late Fire Leopard King once lived and never let anyone near this place.
Furthermore, the temperature here was simply too high, like an inferno, and a normal mortal would instantly melt alive in this place. The floor of this place was covered in crimson crystal sheets, and it was smooth as a mirror.
"Not bad, this place is filled with Silver Grade Fire Crystals." Cyrus nodded in satisfaction while the Fire Leopard Queen remained silent as she didn't know what Cyrus was planning.
"You might want to move away a bit for this." Cyrus suddenly said with a smile before he moved toward the center of the cavern with a blue sheen in his eyes.
The Fire Leopard Queen was startled but didn't dare to take his warning for granted and moved away while closely observing him.
Cyrus suddenly stopped a few inches away from the center of the crystalline floor, and a powerful, sharp aura suddenly released from the lust sword. Without hesitation, Cyrus slashed the sword releasing a blue sheen on the floor under the Fire Leopard Queen's dumbfounded eyes.
A powerful tremor ran through the entire mountain!
"What are you doing?" Eve was also surprised by Cyrus's sudden move, which was akin to destroying the entire mountain.
Cyrus didn't reply and waved his sleeve. All the sparkling dust started to settle down, and a deep slit suddenly appeared right where he had just slashed his sword with full power.
Deep within this slit which glowed in red and filled with fire crystals, a faint white sheen was present, and it was very unusual and eye-catching in the midst of red fire crystals.
Furthermore, that white light was coming from even deeper than Cyrus's slash had reached, which meant there were some under the fire crystal surface!
"Just what is that?" Eve's curious voice rang at this moment since she could see what Cyrus could, and now she was very interested in what was down below. It was also clear that Cyrus was not after these Fire Crystals at all.
"Something which will greatly benefit our dimension and also help our people grow even more quickly." Cyrus casually replied before he looked at the dumbfounded Fire Leopard Queen and told her, "I'm going down. Wait here for me."
The Fire Leopard Queen was bewildered since she didn't know how Cyrus was planning on fitting in that few inches large slit and wondered if he was planning on using that attack again. But if he did that, he might really bring the whole mountain down and bury them alive.
However, the Fire Leopard Queen's eyes went wide when she saw, Cyrus's finger suddenly turned eternal, and the next moment, it became dark smoke and seeped into the narrow slit.
The Fire Leopard Queen quickly ran close to look with a horrid expression as if she had just seen a ghost.
Cyrus had just used a Form Change Dark Silver Grade skill to turn his physical form into ethereal, and with his new nebulas Qi reserve, this spell won't take all his Qi.
In his smoke form, Cyrus easily passed through the slit and appeared in a far wider area, as wide as the cavern above. However, it was filled with white crystals and going far deeper down like a trench.
As Cyrus goes deeper and deeper, the Qi in the air starts to become thicker and thicker until it turns into a faint mist.
When Cyrus was about eight-hundred-meter-deep, he finally reached the end of the trench, and cloud-like mist filled this place.
"Just what is this place? Come on, tell me!" Eve could no longer handle the suspense. She started to pester him like a curious child.
Cyrus finally revealed, "I was about to tell you anyway. You saw all those white crystals while we were descending, right? They are known as Universal Crystals, and the Fire Crystals are formed by ample Fire Element Qi in the upper section of this mountain, which should be a spirit volcano at some point in the past so the Universal Crystal changed into Fire Crystal.
"Universal Crystals are called such because of this exact reason; they can change into any element form and contain pure energy of that element. Furthermore, they are also known as the Universal Currency because every civilization trades using the Universal Crystals.
"Not to mention, Universal Crystal Mines are the lifeline of any massive sect or cultivation dynasty. Universal Crystals are also divided into three quality grades, Fine, Pure, and Flawless.
"The Silver Grade Fire Crystals we saw above can only be formed by Pure Universal Crystals, and all those crystals we saw were also of Pure Quality!"
"Oh, how miraculous. Then didn't this mean we are rich?" Eve excitedly proclaimed.
Cyrus chuckled, "Well, sort of. But my true objective is the Pure Universal Crystal Source in this place. I want to take it and then reinject it into our dimension, which will help us tremendously.
"Afterward, I can harvest Pure Universal Crystals and then multiply them into Fine Universal Crystal Coins (UCC). Thereby introducing them as a means of currency as well as a main resource to cultivate in our dynasty. This whole mountain is filled with fire crystals and Universal Crystals, so I think this operation will go quite smoothly.
"Only with a currency like UCC can our dynasty will be called a true cultivation dynasty, and it will solve many of our problems altogether!"
Eve was speechless by how deep Cyrus's planning was, and he was thinking of such a grand scale that she felt ashamed of calling herself the Guardian Angle of the Dimension.
Cyrus, oblivious to Eve's thoughts, he was already standing in front of a glowing corporeal, white clover flower that appeared to be made with the most pristine crystal in all existence, and its clover petals were nine; it was simply too beautiful and surreal.
Cyrus thought with clear ecstasy in his eyes, 'Three petals mean Fine, nine mean Pure, and twelve mean Flawless… what a massive haul!'
