C6 Crystal origin

Li Hu had gone through this meal in a moderate manner, he was sure that the stone in the child's bag was a crystal, and a high-grade crystal at that.

He had heard from his master and from the sect's manuals that the higher the quality of crystals, the more transparent they were. The top quality crystal was completely transparent without any impurities. Even the major cultivation sects didn't have much on hand! There weren't many high-grade crystal either, they were basically all there, those with some ability were all there! It doesn't circulate until you're below the middle rank.

For example, some rogue cultivators might have never seen a middle-ranked one in their entire lives. One could imagine how useful crystals were in the eyes of cultivators. That was something that ordinary money could not replace! Unless there were some heaven and earth treasures, secret mental cultivation methods, magical equipment, or spiritual tools that were relatively rare in the mortal world, only then would they be able to exchange them for crystals, trade them, etc.

The crystal did not look at its size. It only looked at its grade and the amount of energy it contained. Ordinary crystals were not big. They were the essence condensed from the spirit energy of the underground earth vein.

The size of a crystal mine's vein was in fact the size of the spirit energy contained within the spirit vein underground. The more spirit energy there was, the larger the area would be, which was why such a crystallization was possible! The energy of the crystal could be released through a special medium. It had the function of speeding up one's cultivation and irreplaceable effects on certain items that required energy to circulate.

In short, it had a wide range of uses! This was also the foundation of the cultivation sects, why would they like to build on the spirit veins underground? The size of the spirit veins that the cultivation sects occupied was also the basis of their strength, it was impossible for sects like the Wuzhuang Monastery to guard and possess spirit veins!

There were not many like the Old Ancestor of the Wuzhuang Monastery who would casually find a mountain and establish their own sect. It could be imagined how irresponsible the founder of the Founding Sect was. It was also possible that it was just him who wanted to play around with the sect! He never thought that in a thousand years, the sect he built would be like this, disgraced to the point that they had never seen crystals before. It was also because Li Hu was extremely excited when he saw it! He had nearly lost his Dao-heart! This had to be said to be a mockery.

Li Hu did not care about all that. First, he would reap all the benefits before saying that he was a bastard if he didn't want to take advantage of Ye Zichen. Apart from his master and himself, everything else could be thrown aside!

His master could also be said to be his father. Although he wasn't his biological father, he was more like his biological father. Without a master, there would be no Li Hu now. Even though the environment was very bitter, he had still stepped into the threshold of cultivation. To take a step towards immortality is beyond the reach of mortals.

While drinking. Li Hu said that he had something on and would be leaving tomorrow! At the same time, he told these people about the cave. Of course, Li Hu had randomly made it up. He said that the monster inside had already been subdued by him, and then, he even let it out in case everyone didn't believe him. Let everyone watch!

The moment it was taken out, a few people fainted due to fright and dozens fled. Only then did he slowly put the monster away. He warned them that although the demons had been eliminated, they did not dare to leave anything out of the net. In the future, he would try his best not to get too close to that area, so as to avoid being caught off guard.

He was frightened, coaxed, and tricked. The Village Chief and the other villagers were no longer in the mood to eat and watch the liveliness! He made a few promises and praised them. He then found a place for Li Hu to rest and bid his farewells! A feast was hastily cleared away.

It seemed that cultivating to become an Immortal was not as simple as he imagined. One had to have a mindset that allowed him to not be scared to death! If one's mental endurance is not strong, one would not be delusional enough to cultivate to become an immortal. This was what the Village Chief and the other villagers were thinking in unison.

Li Hu came out from his resting area and found a villager on the way. When he asked about the place where the child lived, the warm-hearted villagers brought him to the entrance of the child's house! By the time they sent the villagers away, the people inside had already come out. He invited Li Hu into the room, and after being polite for a while, under Li Hu's intentional pointers, he found out the truth of the matter.

Li Hu took out a pen and paper to write down a few sentences, then took out a bottle of pills to increase his Qi and gave it to the child, telling him and his family to not speak of what happened today.

Before Li Hu left, he gave two taels of silver from his Cosmos Sack to the stone house, saying that he had some uses for the stone and wanted to spend some silver to buy it. The child's father, who was extremely happy, quickly took it out and gave it to Li Hu.

He also indicated that he would not accept the microtome's silver, it was just a few small stones. Even though it was rather strange, it couldn't compare to the mental cultivation method and immortal pills used to cultivate immortality! Li Hu could not reject it, and could only give up. Then, he called the child over to take care of him a few more times before taking his leave!

Who said that Li Hu was discovered by his conscience, or that his brain was flooded, that would be a huge mistake. Putting aside the fact that these few crystals were much more valuable than the ones Li Hu gave him, just the information from the child's father alone was enough to make Li Hu feel that it was worth it!

Even the few lines of mental cultivation techniques he gave were at most at the Xiantian realm. That bottle of pills was a good thing to mortals, but to him, it was of no use at all. Or you'd think he'd be so generous. If the information he had received was not wrong, then Li Hu would be in big trouble. Even if the news was wrong, it wouldn't be a loss, right?

Returning to his resting place, Li Hu laid on his bed and thought about his own matters, unable to fall asleep no matter what. If the news was wrong, then it doesn't matter. But if this really happened, then should I silence that family?

Li Hu's heart was not that ruthless. It was done by the Demon Daoist, and that was all he could think of! One step at a time! Let's go and have a look tomorrow. Li Hu's heart finally defeated his greed as he laid on the bed and slept deeply.

No matter how profound his magic power was and how good his mental strength was, he was still a benefactor. However, he was still a child after all. His master had taught him many things, and he was also a little smart. However, after everything that had happened, it was still rather hard to accept. Some people became bolder as they fell, while others were at a loss as to what to do. Everyone has to experience something different, I hope our little brother Li Hu won't go to the extreme!

As soon as the sky brightened, Li Hu woke up. After stretching his body a few times, he hadn't slept like today for a long time. Taking a deep breath, he opened the door and walked out. He looked around and saw that no one had gotten up yet. Then, he picked himself up and headed toward the southwest mountain.

Li Hu stood at the side of the large crevice, and sighed at the might of the heaven and earth! No, it couldn't be described as a crack. It should be called a gorge. It would be more appropriate to add a tall mountain by the side of the gorge!

This gorge, let's call it that! It wasn't very deep, only a hundred meters or so, and one could see the entire canyon from the side. At the bottom of the canyon, on the southwest side of the mountain, there was a fissure that led to an unknown place. This could only be considered a crack. Spiritual energy that was like a mist floated out from within, dispersing into the valley.

The villager told him that there was no such large crevice. Before the crevice, he had walked through it with the old hunter. Although they rarely came here, they had also come here a few times.

It was also because of the earthquake that there were barely any crops left in the land after the earthquake. The villagers had no choice but to hunt for food in the nearby mountains. As there were few prey in the nearby mountains, the villagers could only barely keep eating.

He also knew that the southwest mountain far away from the village had a lot of prey around it. Because of the large ferocious beasts that roamed the area, not even a professional hunter would come here to hunt! Although he was not a professional hunter, he had learned from the old hunter for a few years! He had been here a few times, so he had relied on his memories to get here.

When he saw this huge fissure, he was also very surprised. If he had not been here before, he would not even dare to imagine that it was caused by an earthquake! There were some areas with large collapses from the top to the bottom of the valley. They were slanted and formed a large slope.

After he finished reading, he had originally planned to go around this crevice and head up the southwest mountain to see if he could hunt some prey. He had only taken a few steps when he felt that the ground was shaking! Did that frighten him and make him think another earthquake had come? Crouching on the ground, he could feel the tremor coming from the north side of the crevice. It was the exact opposite of where he was.

The vibration went all the way to the crack. After a while, the tremors became more and more intense, but suddenly, the sound stopped. He was so happy that he thought the earthquake had passed. He raised his head and looked over. All of a sudden, he was stunned! It was more frightening than an earthquake!

He saw a scorpion, a large black scorpion. In reality, at that time, he only had this scorpion in his sight, to the point where he pretended not to see a small group of them.

This group of small dots was actually very big, but they only made him afraid! It was not at a terrifying level yet! This scorpion was also the biggest animal he had ever seen in his entire life. He couldn't believe it was a scorpion if he didn't see the small ones and the characteristics of the scorpions.

This body was as tall as the bamboo tower on the second floor of the Village Chief's house, and its tail was dozens of meters long. It was truly terrifying. The tail was pointing towards the sky. The tail needle was a few meters long. The scorpion didn't even give him time to look at it carefully before it jumped straight down from the big crevice!

When it was almost to the bottom of the crevice, the tail pierced the ground rapidly, using the buffer to land on the ground. The smaller ones didn't have the ability to do so and climbed down the slope obediently. They were extremely fast. The slope was several hundred meters long, and it only took them a few seconds to reach it.

After the scorpion crawled to the other side of the small crevice, it quietly waited for the little scorpions to gather. Very quickly, these small scorpions arrived at its back. They seemed to know that they had assembled properly, so they pointed their tall tails towards the crevice, and these small scorpions swarmed inside.

After a short while, the little scorpions that had entered the cave came back out one by one! There were also some animals that looked like bats that followed him out. In the future it would be called a white bat, and the individual would be similar to a small scorpion. It was clear black and white with these scorpions, so it was easy to recognize them.

The number of bats was many times that of scorpions! Flying up and down in the air, covering the sky and blotting out the sun! He kept attacking the scorpions. Especially that scorpion, its entire body was almost covered in paste.

This scorpion was very fierce. Its tail that was dozens of meters long was dancing in the air, swinging and stabbing. Everything it swung at was turned into minced meat. The tail needle could pierce through quite a few at once, but after that, it would simply throw it away. Anyone who was pricked by the tail needle would turn into water. Although it did not have any special methods, those little scorpions could not kill as many as it could.

This war lasted for several hours, and the troops brought by the scorpion were completely wiped out. It was the only one left who was still killing tirelessly. Although it had killed a lot and its bat army had suffered heavy casualties, there were still many left.

Although the bats could only bite and scratch, they could not cause much damage to the scorpion! However, she still rushed forward to die.

Suddenly, a golden bat flew out from the crevice. This golden bat was at least five times larger than the white bat. When it came out, it directly flew to the scorpion's head. Seeing that the Golden Bat was right on top of its head, it directly pierced its tail needle towards the Golden Bat.

A surprising scene appeared! The tail needle directly pierced through the Golden Bat's body, and the Golden Bat turned into a ball of golden mist. When the scorpion saw that its attacks were useless, it opened its mouth and spat out a ball the size of a ball at the golden mist.

The sphere went through the golden fog, but it did not disperse the golden fog. However, it became a little thinner. From the golden fog, a sharp sound came out, and after it finished, the scorpion's entire body exploded!

After the explosion, the scorpion was torn into pieces, and all the bats beside it were destroyed! The sphere seemed to lose control as it fell from the sky. The remaining scorpion tail smashed a few more bats to death before falling to the ground like a pillar, raising a large cloud of dust and sand.

The golden fog slowly turned into Golden Bat again, spinning a few rounds before falling to the ground. It grabbed the sphere spit out by the scorpion and flew back into the crevice!

The white bats waited for the Golden Bat to fly into the crevice before falling from the sky and devouring the corpses of their own kind. Not a single one of them moved the corpse of the Scorpion Army. After they finished eating, they grabbed a complete corpse and flew back into the crevice.

Not long after, a small group of bats flew out and started repeating the same actions as the bats above. However, they were much smaller and flew back into the crevice after swallowing. This process didn't end until nightfall! Not a single one flew out.

After seeing this, the villager did not dare to move even after thinking about it. He waited until the middle of the night before daring to get up. A few of the bat corpses that had been thrown by the scorpions landed right in front of him. The corpses had already been dissolved. The stones inside lit up the surroundings. Seeing that these stones were able to light up, he knew that they were definitely good stuff.

He went to pick them up and wrapped them in cloth. Only then did he return home in a state of anxiety! He didn't dare to tell anyone about it, for fear of causing a panic! He didn't tell anyone. The few stones that he got were all enjoyed by his son! I gave him one. Just told him to pick it up.

Would there be crystals in the body? This completely broke Li Hu's perspective, if this news got out! He didn't dare to imagine the consequences, so he decided to go back and kill! Thus, there was the struggle at that time.

After thinking it over, Li Hu decided to go down and see what had happened. If he didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it. He also knew about the earthquake back then. It was only because they were too far away and his age was too young, that he did not feel that it was too big of a difference.

There were no humans or animals nearby. Li Hu then jumped down, with his current stage of qi refinement, this height of over 100 metres was nothing to him! He flipped a few times in the air before landing lightly at the bottom of the canyon.

Just by looking at the skeletons of the corpses all over the ground, one could imagine how intense the battle had been! Arriving at the center of the battle, he saw the tail left behind by the exploding scorpion. Looking at this skeleton tail, Li Hu knew that the spider he saw in the cave could only be considered a little kid in front of this scorpion.

Although the cultivation world could not be evaluated by size, most demon beasts were still the bigger their body, and the stronger they were. Li Hu believed that this scorpion had already reached Demonic Core Period and was not at the transformation stage yet.

The scorpions of the Demonic Core Period were all killed by the Golden Bat and the demonic cores were all taken away! What realm was the Golden Bat in? The Golden Bat did not spit out any Spirit Demon Cores, and only let out a sound. Just the thought of blowing up a scorpion was terrifying enough! It was a miracle that the villager was not scared to death.

To think that this Demonic Core Period Demon Beast's body was filled with treasures! That villager didn't know what was good for him, but he knew that it was rare to encounter such good fortune in a thousand years! It seems like the Golden Bat won't come out if it's okay, I'm not even afraid. With that in mind, Li Hu took out the storage ring from his Qiankun bag. The storage bag could not contain that many ingredients. It was better to end this quickly!

The first thing Li Hu did was to go towards the scorpion's stinger. He took out his top quality peach wood sword and cut at the stinger. If it wasn't for the top quality peach wood sword, he really wouldn't have been able to do anything to it! And this was done after he had fully circulated his true essence before he was able to cut down.

How hard must the tail needle be before it hit the tail needle? The shell of the spider in the cave. He didn't even need to use much true qi to stab into it. If he had fully circulated his true qi, he wouldn't have dared to say that he had too many holes. Hugging onto the three meter long tail needle, Li Hu thought beautifully.

Yesterday, his corpse pinning needle had been destroyed by that beast, so today he had gotten a big one. If he were to refine it, what rank would he be at? Even if he had not refined the top-grade peach wood sword, he would not be able to slash it apart, so what if he refined it?

Ga Ga! Li Hu laughed out loud. He did not even think about what good things his current level could refine. It was hard to say if he could even refine them. Even the materials would be wasted. Even though it was a treasure in front of a master refiner, he could only look at it.
