Chapter 59: Water Spirit Crystal Vein Second Update

  "Come quick and see, these stones are so beautiful! Oh, what a dense spiritual energy!" Yang Qing Shui picked up a crystal stone from the ground and exclaimed in surprise.

  "It's really beautiful, is it a spiritual stone? Is this the legendary spiritual stone?" Yang Yue was stunned for a moment, and then she was overjoyed. She had also heard of spiritual stones, which contained dense spiritual energy, making them the best aid for cultivation. The dense spiritual energy within would be extremely beneficial to cultivators.

  Yang Lei shook his head and said, "This is not a spiritual stone, it should be an aqua crystal."

  "Aqua Crystal?" The two girls looked at him in unison.

  "Not bad, this should be the water crystal, not the spirit stone. The spirit stone is indeed precious, but it's not as precious as this water crystal." Yang Lei picked up the water crystal, and in his heart, he knew that this place was likely where the water crystal he had obtained from the mutated octopus came from.

  "More precious than a Ling Stone?" Yang Yue was shocked, that Ling Stone was one in ten thousand, and even a mid-grade Ling Stone could be exchanged for a top-grade spiritual artifact. It was clear just how precious and rare that artifact was.

  "That's natural."

  "Yang Ge, how did you know this isn't a Ling Stone?" Yang Qingshui asked Yang Yue.

  "Yes, how did you tell them apart?" Yang Yue also asked.

  Yang Lei smiled and took out the water crystal, he naturally wouldn't say that he had used his appraisal technique to appraise it.

  "The Spirit Stone should be something anyone can use for cultivation, right? And it's extremely helpful."

  "Right."

  That's right.

  Both women nodded and said that they were very clear about this point.

  "But try this water crystal," said Yang Lei.

  "I'll give it a try." Yang Yue took it over, closed her eyes, and began to circulate the magic formula to absorb the spiritual energy inside. She stopped only after a few minutes. Then she looked at Yang Lue and said, "This isn't right, this can be absorbed, it feels so comfortable, cultivating like this is more than five times faster than usual."

  Yang Lei smiled slightly and continued: "You try giving this water crystal to Qing Shui."

  Yang Yue nodded upon hearing this and handed the Water Crystal in her hand over to Yang Qing Shui, "Qing Shui, little sister, you try it out."

  Yang Qingshui nodded, took the water crystal in her hand, closed her eyes and began to absorb it. However, she quickly opened her eyes again, looking at Yang Lue and Yang Yue in surprise: "I won't do, can't absorb."

  "How is this possible? I can clearly absorb it!" Yang Yue couldn't believe it, took the water crystal in her hand again, and tried once more. The result was still the same - she could obviously use it.

  "Why is that, why can I absorb it but Qing Shui can't?" Yang Yue looked at Yang Lue, since he had already guessed it, he naturally had an explanation, but one thing was certain, this wasn't a spiritual stone, if it were, Yang Qing Shui would also be able to use it.

  "This is a water crystal, not an ordinary spirit stone. In fact, this water crystal can also be said to be a kind of spirit stone, but it's a special one. It only contains the spiritual energy of water attribute immortals, and only those with a water attribute can use it. People with poor talent can't absorb it, and if you don't have a special cultivation method, using it would be a waste. But second sister, you should have already started cultivating the heart method passed down by that senior, so absorbing the spiritual energy from this water crystal will come naturally to you. As for me and Qing Shui, we don't have a water attribute body constitution, so we can't absorb the spiritual energy within it." Yang Lei explained slowly and carefully.

  "In other words, the water crystal here is specially prepared for you."

  "Was it specially prepared for me? You said Master Yang specially prepared it for me?" Yang Yue looked at Yang Lue and asked.

  "Not bad, and the reason I had to dive into the water earlier was also because of this Water Crystal." Yang Lei took out the Water Crystal that he had obtained from the Three-Eyed Mutated Octopus, which was much larger than the one Yang Qing had picked up, and its spiritual energy was much purer.

  "This water crystal, did you get it from the beginning? So that's why you came down to see?" Yang Yue seemed to have realized something.

  Yang Lei nodded: "This water crystal was obtained from the body of that three-eyed mutant octopus I killed, so I'm sure there are more water crystals below, which is why I insisted on diving down to explore."

  Yang Yue let out a sigh of relief, looking at him and saying: "Fortunately, you insisted on coming down, otherwise I might not have had such good luck, and wouldn't have obtained this inheritance."

  "So, Second Sister, you have great luck." Yang Lei said with a smile.

  "Yes, Brother Yang is right, Sister Yue'er, you are a person with great destiny." Yang Qing Shui echoed on the side.

  Yang Yue felt a bit embarrassed and hastily said: "Let's see if there are any more water crystals ahead?"

  Having said that, he took a step forward and walked away.

  "Here, here the water crystals are getting more and more, how can there be so many?" The three of them went further ahead, the frequency of the water crystals appearing also increased, previously it was a long time before one appeared, now almost every few steps they could pick up one.

  "What's that?"

  All three of them were stunned by the scene in front of them.

  "So much water crystal." Yang Yue swallowed her saliva.

  "Water crystal ore, it's actually an ore... this is just too..." Yang Lei couldn't say anything more, he didn't expect that there would be so many water crystals here, and it was actually a whole vein.

  "No, no, that's..." Yang Lei was about to go over, but something made him stop. Taking a closer look, he couldn't help but take in a breath of cool air.

  "What's wrong?"

  "There is a strange beast guarding." Yang Wei blocked the two women.

  Along Yang Wei's arm, the two women finally saw the strange beast guarding in front of the water crystal vein. It was a huge creature with three eyes and a transparent crystal horn on its forehead, looking like a lion and a tiger.

  Appraisal technique.

  Three-eyed Crystal Unicorn King, extremely powerful, level unknown, highly dangerous, recommended to retreat.

  "Let's go, let's hurry, don't wake it up, or we'll all die here." Yang Lei understood the severity of the situation. This guy couldn't even be identified by his advanced appraisal technique, which showed how terrifying he was. His own appraisal technique had already reached an advanced level, and even a Martial Saint at the Great Perfection stage could be appraised, but this Three-Eyed Crystal Unicorn King was of unknown rank, showing just how abnormal it was.

  Seeing Yang Lei's expression, the two women also knew that things were serious and didn't ask much. They followed Yang Lei back home.

  The three of them soon returned to their original location. The two women were slightly out of breath, after all, they had been running at full speed for a considerable distance, which was quite exhausting.

  "What is that monster, it looks quite cute too, if it were a bit smaller." Yang Yue asked calmly afterwards.

  "Yeah, that demon beast doesn't seem very powerful either. It seems to be less ferocious than the Iron-backed Giant Lizard from before." Yang Qing Shui also asked.

  "What you see is just the surface, it's not necessarily true that a demon beast that looks fierce on the outside is particularly powerful, while one that looks more pleasant and gentle is not. This is your female perspective, but in reality, those powerful demon beasts all look harmless, yet are extremely ferocious and cruel when they fight. Yang Lei shook his head and said, 'And this particular demon beast, although it looks very gentle, is actually incredibly powerful.'"

  "This demon beast, I don't know much about it either. It should be called the Three-eyed Crystal Unicorn King, at least a level 9 peak, or even a level 10 demon beast. Its power is terrifying beyond measure. If we are discovered by it, the consequences will be unthinkable."

  " Ninth level peak, or even tenth?" The two women involuntarily took a breath of cold air. If this guy goes crazy, then the three of them wouldn't be enough to fill its teeth.

  "So that's why I was so nervous earlier." Yang Lei said.

  "Let's hurry up now, or that guy will catch up with us and it'll be troublesome." Yang Qing Shui said at this time.

  Yang Lei nodded: "Not bad, this water crystal, let's come back for it when we have the power to do so later, anyway no one else can take it away here."

  Yang Yue also nodded in agreement.

  …………

  After leaving Ming Shui Lake, all three of them let out a sigh of relief. After all, that guy inside was too formidable.

  It was getting late and it would soon be dark, so the three of them prepared to rest for a night and head back the next day.

  "Roar, roar, roar."

  Yang Lei stopped and frowned: "The howling sound, what is this howling sound, it's so terrifying."

  "No, this is... This is the roar of the Long-Armed Ape King, so powerful, could it be... Could it be the Long-Armed Ape Emperor?" Yang Lei's face changed greatly as he thought of this. If it really was the Long-Armed Ape Emperor, then things would be troublesome. After all, he had exterminated the descendants of the Long-Armed Ape King, and they must have come to find him, which is why they were roaring with such anger.

  "What's wrong?" Yang Yue asked with concern as she saw Yang Lei's face suddenly turn pale. "What happened?"

  "Second sister, we must leave now, or it will be troublesome," Yang Lei said seriously.

  "What's going on? Is it related to that roar?" Yang Yue asked.

  Yang Qingshui suddenly remembered that this roar was similar to the roars of those long-armed demon monkeys back then, but this roar was even more intense than before, showing that this long-armed demon monkey was even stronger.

  "Not bad, if I'm not mistaken, this is the voice of the Long-Armed Ape Emperor. I've killed so many of them that it's already harboring hatred towards me. If there wasn't a barrier, it would have probably charged in already. Now that we can hear its voice, it's clear that it has broken through. If we don't leave, being caught up by it will be big trouble. That guy's strength is absolutely not something we can contend with, having reached the level of a Sacred Beast. If we encounter it, we're definitely dead." Yang Lei explained.

  Although unwilling, Yang Yue also knew the severity of the matter.

  "Alright, let's go now and hurry up, as long as we get back to the entrance, there's nothing to worry about."

  "Uh-huh."

  The three men mounted their horses and set off hastily along the road back.

  An hour later, the sky had darkened, and Yang Lei took out two things that he had obtained from Tian Shi Yun's cave mansion - night pearls. These things didn't have any practical effect, but they did have some ornamental value, and could be used to delight girls. But now they were actually coming in handy.

  "This is a Night Pearl, how... little brother, how do you have two Night Pearls?" Yang Yue looked at him in surprise. Although the Wu Wang Fu also had some Night Pearls, there were only a few of them, and they were extremely precious. Now, Yang Luei took out two of them just like that, which made her unable to help but be surprised.

  "No matter how it came, let's hurry on our way first. Here, one for each of you." Yang Lei placed two night pearls, one in each of the girls' hands.

  "This is too expensive for me," Yang Qing Shui refused.

  "Take it now, don't say so much, let's talk when we get back to a safe place. Even if you don't want it, take it anyway," said Yang Lei.

  "Yes, it's already dark now, we need to hurry on our way, so you take this, it's more convenient." Yang Yue pulled Yang Qingwu's hand and said.

  "Alright...alright then, I'll return it to you when we get to a safe place," said Yang Qing Shui.

  Three people rushed along the road, never stopping, and didn't even bother with some low-level magical beasts. As for sixth-level magical beasts, Yang Lei would kill them with lightning-fast moves, without showing any mercy. When encountering seventh-level magical beasts, Yang Lei would hold them off himself, letting the two women go first, then catching up after shaking them off.
