Chapter 2781: Chapter 2781: Trouble May Be Brewing

"Haha, inside this Star Stone, there are probably over a million Red Divine Crystals, and they’re all of superior quality! Brother Fang, you’re really impressive!"

Yaojian’s eyes lit up with great joy when he saw the dazzling red glow of the Divine Crystals.

Speaking of which, these million Red Divine Crystals might not seem like a lot in terms of quantity, but Yaojian understood that the quality of these Red Divine Crystals was far superior to those they had acquired from Canyun.

If these Red Divine Crystals were brought to the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market, each piece could at least be traded for ten ordinary Red Divine Crystals.

Therefore, these million high-quality Red Divine Crystals are equivalent to tens of millions of ordinary Red Divine Crystals.

Thus, led by Fang Bai, dozens of divine beings from the Emperor’s Palace, and led by Yaojian, dozens of Divine Realm experts began mining Divine Crystals around this Star Stone.

Fang Bai’s Blood-Drinking Mad Blade was incredibly sharp, and with every swing, thousands of Divine Crystals would peel off the Star Stone and be collected into his Five Elements Space Ring.

The other experts, however, were much slower in mining the Divine Crystals compared to Fang Bai.

During this time, many experts wandering around the crystal zone discovered the Divine Crystal mine being excavated by Fang Bai and their group. They couldn’t help but covet it, wanting to join in, but they were forcefully driven away by Yaojian and the others.

The Divine Crystal mine discovered by Fang Bai in the Fiery Flame Crystal Zone was rare, and like protective mother cows, Yaojian and the others wouldn’t allow any other experts to intervene.

Soon, the Divine Crystals hidden within the dozen-mile-radius Star Stone were completely mined by Fang Bai and his group, leaving behind a massive Star Stone shell floating in space.

Fang Bai himself mined and collected half of the million Red Divine Crystals, while the remaining half was split among the divine beings of the Emperor’s Palace and the Divine Realm experts into their Spatial Divine Rings.

This tens-of-thousands-mile Fiery Flame Crystal Zone naturally contained more Star Stones hiding high-quality Divine Crystals. Fang Bai diffused his Divine Sense and continued searching, quickly discovering several other Star Stones with high-quality Red Divine Crystals.

In the same crystal zone as Fang Bai and his group mining Divine Crystals, there were several teams of experts. Upon hearing that Fang Bai’s group was repeatedly finding high-quality Divine Crystal mines, they began gathering around.

"Pause the mining for now, we might have trouble!"

Yaojian whispered to Fang Bai.

Fang Bai also noticed the increasing number of Divine Realm experts around them, but instead of sensing hostility, what he felt more was admiration and respect.

"Greetings, gentlemen."

At this moment, an elderly man of the early True God Realm flew over, seemingly realizing that Fang Bai and Yaojian were the leaders of this team. He said, "Your continuous discoveries of high-quality crystal mines show your excellent exploration methods. Given this, why not head to the Outstanding Galaxy?"

Yaojian was intrigued and asked, "Are you referring to the Thousand Star System composed of over a thousand star bodies?"

The elder nodded and said, "Exactly. Within the Outstanding Galaxy, there are even higher quality Orange Divine Crystals, which are worth a hundred times more than the Red Divine Crystals. Therefore, I feel that your excellent mining capabilities are somewhat wasted on mining Red Divine Crystals here."

Yaojian waved his hand with a smile, saying, "This comment is mistaken. Although Orange Divine Crystals are better, for us True God Realm experts, the most suitable for cultivation is still the Red Divine Crystals! Cultivating with Orange Divine Crystals feels like a waste to me!"

In fact, within the Divine Realm, the most suitable Divine Crystals for cultivation vary across different realms.

For example, Void God Realm experts typically cultivate using Black Divine Crystals.

And for True God Realm experts, Red Divine Crystals are used for cultivation.

As for Orange Divine Crystals, they are the standard cultivation materials for Divine Venerable Realm experts.

Experts of the True God Realm, like Yaojian, can use the higher quality Orange Divine Crystals for cultivation.

However, True God Realm experts finding and acquiring Orange Divine Crystals is not easy.

Moreover, cultivating with Orange Divine Crystals, True God Realm experts aren’t able to fully absorb the Divine Power contained within them, which equates to a kind of waste.

That’s why, as Yaojian mentioned earlier, for him, instead of thinking about distant Orange Divine Crystals, it’s more useful to mine more Red Divine Crystals.

However, Fang Bai had different thoughts.

Due to his unique physique, the higher the quality of Divine Crystals, the greater the benefits. But for now, with only Red Divine Crystals available, he could only make do.

Upon hearing the elder mention Orange Divine Crystals, Fang Bai was intrigued, thinking it would be great if he could mine Orange Divine Crystals, as then his realm and cultivation level could be improved even faster. ℴ

Fang Bai had some understanding of the Divine Crystal quality division in the Divine Realm, knowing that above the Orange Divine Crystals, there were several types of Divine Crystals containing even stronger Divine Power.

However, with the starry sky’s vastness, he didn’t know where more high-quality Divine Crystals were distributed, and slowly searching would undoubtedly consume a lot of time.

"Does the elder know the location of the Outstanding Galaxy?"

Fang Bai asked with hope, thinking that if this elder knew the location of the Outstanding Galaxy and told him, he would prepare to head there.

The elder twirled his beard and smiled, saying, "I do not know, but a friend of mine has been to the Outstanding Galaxy and even encountered Divine Venerable Realm experts there!"

Speaking of this, he showed a face of serene longing, as if the Outstanding Galaxy held a great attraction for him.

Fang Bai raised his eyebrows and asked, "Could you tell me where your friend is now?"

The elder examined Fang Bai and asked, "Do you really want to go to the Outstanding Galaxy?"

Fang Bai replied, "I’m quite interested in Orange Divine Crystals, and not going to see them would feel like a missed opportunity."

The elder said, "That’s true! I’d like to see it too... but my strength is too weak, and I’m afraid I’d be eliminated by the unpredictable Star Pirates on the way!"

After a pause, he continued to Fang Bai, "If you truly want to go, I can take you to my friend. But..."

"But what?"

Fang Bai asked, frowning slightly.

The elder said, "My friend was severely injured in the Qi Sea by an enemy, and now his strength cannot recover, making him discontented, so seeing him may be difficult."

Fang Bai thought for a while and asked, "A Qi Sea injury could be recovered with a Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill, right? What is your friend’s realm and cultivation level?"

The elder replied, "He is mid-level in the True God Realm. Yes, a Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pill could cure his damaged Qi Sea, but... when he suffered severe injuries, his cultivation resources were also stolen, making it impossible for him to trade for such an extremely expensive Divine Elixir."

Fang Bai calculated internally and smiled, cupping his fists to the elder, saying, "I want to meet your friend, and if you’re willing to lead the way, I am willing to offer a hundred thousand of the Divine Crystals we just mined as a gesture!"
