Life Crystal

Biodata

Origin and Collection

When Zhao Ze sacrificed himself to become Huo Yuhao’s intelligent soul ring, he channeled vitality refined from Cold Marrow into Yuhao to repair his deficient constitution. Life Crystals are the valuable residue subsequently expelled by Yuhao’s body. Yuhao initially tells Tang Ya and Bei Bei that the vitality came from a medicinal herb, concealing Zhao Ze’s involvement 1 2.

• Sweat: Yuhao collects crystal-bearing sweat on broad leaves; it has a faint pearlescent glow and a distinctive fragrance 4.
• Excrement: It can contain a high concentration of Life Crystal, which Yuhao later sells at Shrek City 20.
• Ice attribute: The life force Zhao Ze gave Yuhao came from Cold Marrow and carries an ice attribute detectable in the crystals 35.

Effects

• Cultivation and constitution: The crystals nourish the martial soul, improve physique and aptitude, and can help overcome cultivation bottlenecks. Bei Bei describes their vitality as pure and free of side effects 2.
• Stamina: Cao Jinxuan recovers enough energy to resume Shrek’s hundred-lap run after consuming crystal-bearing sweat; other exhausted students recover as well 17.
• Tang Ya: A small amount from Yuhao’s sweat improves her aptitude and, by her assessment, boosts her cultivation speed by thirty percent 4.
• Xu Sanshi: Consuming a high-concentration portion completes the evolution of his martial soul into a Basalt Shield 20.
• Mu En: His old injuries heal and his vitality returns after he consumes the crystals 20 21.
• Ma Xiaotao: The crystals suppress her evil fire; further use helps her martial soul awaken as an Ultimate Fire Phoenix 25 26.
• Du Busi: Consuming several crystals restores his vitality and loosens his level-98 bottleneck, though the boost does not let him defeat Mu En 30 31.

Trade and Demand

• Tang Ya trades cultivation funds and a guaranteed Shrek Academy enrollment quota for Yuhao’s crystals. Zhao Ze advises Yuhao not to accept Tang Sect membership as payment 3 4.
• Yuhao sells them to classmates and then at a Shrek City stall; demand grows further after the Talent Sharing Contract is introduced 18 19 29.
• The Body Sect seeks access to both Life Crystals and the Talent Sharing Contract for its disciples as part of its proposed cooperation with Shrek Academy 32.
