Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

”First tier? Immortal crystal? How is this possible?” Lin Ruoxi asked three shocked questions in succession, making Chu Linfeng find it amusing.

”Don’t make such a fuss, alright? I’m just speculating. You know, when I discovered this place a few days ago, the concentration of Immortal Spirit Qi was as dense as here, so I absorbed about half of it with the Reincarnation Bracelet. But in just a few days, it returned to the state it was when I first arrived. This indicates that there is a place continuously emitting Immortal Spirit Qi.

And these immortal stones couldn’t possibly release it; the only possibility is that there’s an Immortal Crystal, and it’s a Mother Crystal. Once the Immortal Spirit Qi in this space reaches a certain extent, it will stop and slowly disperse through the immortal stone ore vein to the outside. After millions of years of accumulation, immortal stones naturally formed.

So, we must find the exact location of this Immortal Crystal. This is our biggest gain coming here. If we could move the Immortal Crystal into the Reincarnation Bracelet, there’s no need for me to explain what phenomenon might occur.” Chu Linfeng explained slowly, while Lin Ruoxi looked at him as if he were a monster.

After a while, she said, ”Lin Feng, are you out of your mind? You could imagine such a fantastical idea—I’m really at a loss for words. Since you say there’s an Immortal Crystal here that can emit Immortal Spirit Qi, doesn’t that mean this crystal is alive or has a certain level of intelligence? With so many people here, do you think it would still release Immortal Spirit Qi? That’s truly hilarious.”

Lin Ruoxi casually mentioned that she thought Chu Linfeng’s idea was utterly baseless, but Chu Linfeng took it in stride. He felt that Lin Ruoxi made a lot of sense, and it’s possible that the Immortal Crystal, being extraordinarily large or ancient, developed some intelligence or even produced an Artifact Spirit, just like Chu Qing and Chu Tong.

His mind sparked with sudden clarity, and he laughed, ”Ruoxi, we should leave here quickly. You’re right; if we’re here, this Immortal Crystal will definitely not release Immortal Spirit Qi. We need to hide. I didn’t even think of this, you’re quite smart.”

Lin Ruoxi felt a bit speechless; she casually mentioned it, but this guy took it seriously. Seeing his persistent behavior, she said, ”I hope it really does happen.” At this moment, she no longer wanted to dampen Chu Linfeng’s spirits. Here lay so many Immortal Crystals, yet instead of mining them, he insisted on searching for the so-called Immortal Crystal, which she had never heard of before—the Mother Crystal.

Chu Linfeng directly placed Chu Tong’s body into the Storage Ring, then awakened the Golden Demon Vulture and Xiaoying, who felt quite upset that he interrupted their absorption of Immortal Spirit Qi. However, since Chu Linfeng awakened them at this time, it must be important, so they decided to keep quiet.

When they saw those immortal stones glowing yellow and purple, their eyes lit up. ”Big brother, you woke us up just to mine immortal stones? That’s incredible! But we should wait until I break through to a higher realm first. I can’t believe you found a place with so many immortal stones, Xiaoying, I’m truly impressed with you.” Xiaoying couldn’t help but say.

”Return to my body; we need to leave for a while. After you’ve finished absorbing the Immortal Spirit Qi, I’ll naturally bring you out. Everyone, don’t rush; there will be time for mining. If you’re lazy then, be careful or I’ll make you cry out loud,” Chu Linfeng joked.

Golden Demon Vulture and Xiaoying exchanged glances and then they flashed back into Chu Linfeng’s body. Chu Linfeng immediately performed Earth Transformation, taking Lin Ruoxi deeper into the earth’s layer, though he found this layer of earth exceptionally hard, consuming a great amount of Earth Element.

Chu Linfeng slowly used Divine Sense to survey the movements within the space, but after waiting for a while, he didn’t notice an increase in Immortal Spirit Qi. He wasn’t discouraged; perhaps the Mother Crystal was suspicious of their sudden departure and didn’t dare release Immortal Spirit Qi easily.

About an hour passed, and just as Chu Linfeng felt he couldn’t hold on much longer, he saw an exciting phenomenon. In one corner of this space, Immortal Spirit Qi was slowly appearing, although at a very slow pace.

Had it not been for his Divine Sense, he wouldn’t have seen it at all. Chu Linfeng knew now wasn’t the time to go out; once the Mother Crystal releases a lot of Immortal Spirit Qi, going out would allow him to accurately pinpoint its exact position.

After waiting another half an hour or so, Chu Linfeng really couldn’t hold on any longer. But now the corner was releasing more Immortal Spirit Qi at an increasingly rapid pace. It’s thrilling him immensely. In a flash, he brought Lin Ruoxi to the surface.

At that moment, the corner stopped releasing Immortal Spirit Qi. Seeing this phenomenon, Chu Linfeng could completely determine that it was already an intelligent Immortal Crystal. ”Ruoxi, you were right. Let’s see what this magical Mother Crystal looks like.”

Lin Ruoxi looked at Chu Linfeng in confusion and said, ”Indeed the Immortal Spirit Qi here has increased, but I still don’t believe what you said. If immortal stones had intelligence, wouldn’t they be invincible? They could directly absorb Immortal Spirit Qi when there isn’t any available. All things in existence are governed by Heaven and Earth Laws; such heaven-defying things cannot possibly exist in this world. Lin Feng, although this place is unusual, it’s not as exaggerated as you say.”

Chu Linfeng didn’t speak but directly led her to the corner. The place looked very ordinary, with only a few Upper Grade immortal stones exposed, and not a trace of Top-Grade Immortal Stones. However, Chu Linfeng was certain that the more ordinary a place seemed, the less ordinary it actually was.

He then took out the Cyan Frost Sword from the Storage Ring and began to strike the place where Immortal Spirit Qi was released. This strike wasn’t very powerful; it was just exploratory in nature. Yet, he found that when his sword hit it, it was immediately rebounded back. The strength of the rebound almost made him lose grip of the Cyan Frost Sword.

Such a bizarre phenomenon further confirmed the extraordinariness of this place, and Lin Ruoxi also felt something was off. Although Chu Linfeng’s strike wasn’t powerful, there shouldn’t be such a strong rebound force; given his strength, such a phenomenon should not occur.

”Lin Feng, why is this place so hard? Is there another way to break open this layer of soil?” Lin Ruoxi asked.

Actually, Chu Linfeng really wanted to use Earth Transformation to penetrate the earth layer and see what’s inside, but given how hard this place is, perhaps even reaching the Second Layer might not allow him entry. ”I can’t think of a better method right now. Let’s slowly excavate; maybe clearing the surrounding soil will reveal the Immortal Crystal.”
