Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Xijiu was very smart. She had seen how Di Fuyi had retrieved the crystal from the creature earlier. Therefore, after cutting the pig’s head open, a bright red crystal was taken out. The 12 pairs of eyes were staring at the red crystal. The group had really wanted this prized possession.
Di Fuyi also glanced at the red crystal, which was much smaller than the one he had just consumed earlier. If he had to a.s.sess based on the outlook, the one he just consumed was a first-cla.s.s product, and this one was a third-cla.s.s product.
Gu Xijiu slid the crystal in her palm and looked at Di Fuyi. She asked him, “What is your plan?”
Di Fuyi smiled. “It is retrieved by you. You make the call!”
Gu Xijiu looked at the 12 people again. They all looked at the red crystal, and the eyes were full of envy.
“What do you all think?” Gu Xijiu looked around at everyone.
The 12 people looked at each other. The head of the gang was pale and let out a chuckle. “It’s yours.”
“Brother, what if we cannot catch a second pig?” A woman opened her mouth.
“We can’t enter the city…”
“This time, we are dead!” Another woman spoke in desperation.
“We… we can hunt again. We will find a second one.” The head of the gang tried to lift the confidence of the group, but the rest could not feel it.
“Our time is running out; there is only one day left. Our Qiankun Net is also broken. What do we use to hunt it?”
“It’s over! We are going to die. The Zhuri clan is going to be extinct.”
These 12 people were clearly desperate. They did not even have enough strength to sit up.
“I can give you this red crystal.” A crisp voice was heard. This sentence immediately brought a sense of hope to the crowd.
The head of the clan trembled. “What? What?”
“I can give you this red crystal, but you have to answer a few questions. Once you answer properly, this red crystal is yours.” Gu Xijiu opened her mouth again, and the red crystal in her palm spun.
The 12 people naturally agreed to this exchange. Therefore, Gu Xijiu knew the following from their answers.
Luo Hua City still existed, and it was rather developed. 123 years ago, the sky was gloomy, and a species had mutated; the flowers and trees were clearly affected and grew out of control. All the branches were extended to the sky. Some extremely ferocious monsters appeared in this world. These monsters mainly consumed other species in the Shura World as their food. The pigs that appeared were one of the monsters. The spiritual power between heaven and earth was getting lesser and lesser and finally dissipated completely. What was even more bizarre was that the moon in the sky was always round. There was no such thing as a full or non-full moon. The ordinary animals on the ground went crazy every night. They were much milder during the day, and most of them were hiding in cooler places to rest.
There were still many pract.i.tioners in this Shura World. As they could not get the spiritual power that was needed for cultivation, many pract.i.tioners in different clans had become ordinary people. They had died of illnesses and old age. In addition to the ravages of these monsters, a lot of villages and towns had been destroyed, and many clans were getting extinct.
Later, they did not know who actually found out that those extremely fierce monsters had a spiritual crystal which could replenish spiritual power. Therefore, the clans started to hunt these monsters.
