"Indeed, we have also discovered that this crystal contains the fluctuations of a living soul, but we are unable to unravel its mysteries. This is clearly an extremely strange form of biological existence."
Extensive research has been conducted on this crystal, with limited results. We speculate that such a crystal possesses an extremely mystical ability to absorb the energy of heaven and earth, and can convert this energy into matter, such as this edible and incredibly delicious tender meat. According to the statistics of the Beast God Temple, generally speaking, a single crystal can convert over ten tons of fresh meat in less than a year. (High-speed updates (www))
Ernst explained with a smile.
"There are such amazing creatures?"
Surprised, Sun Fei suddenly thought of a possibility and said, "If that's the case, then you could collect these crystals and cultivate them in the orcish habitats. You wouldn't need to work hard hunting and growing crops to support an entire orc tribe."
"When I first started, I shared the same thoughts as you, but unfortunately, we encountered difficulties during the execution process. As you saw before, the air in this area is filled with death gas. In fact, this death gas is released when the silver crystal transforms energy into matter. In the Evil Water Swamp, the natural laws of heaven and earth restrain this death gas, preventing it from spreading everywhere. However, once it leaves the Evil Water Swamp, the death gas can take the lives of countless orcs. The Beast God Temple paid a heavy price in its past experiments."
Ernst spoke, recalling the tragic event that occurred hundreds of years ago, his face still showing sadness and fear.
"In other words, only in the Evil Water Swamp can these crystals provide a large amount of succulent, tender meat, and the deathly gas they produce won't overflow," Sun Fei sighed. "It seems that the creation of heaven and earth, the cycle of laws, is indeed all interconnected and restrictive. There is never anything without effort. In this way, only Behemoth Beastmen with the strength to reach the Great Sun-Class Venerable Stage are capable of capturing this kind of beast. It's impossible to support the Behemoth Beastmen on a large scale with this."
"That's right." Ernst nodded. "Only during years of famine will the various races send out elite hunting parties to risk venturing into the Evil Water Swamp to capture exotic beasts and supply their meat to help their races overcome the crisis. In normal times, only high-ranking nobles can enjoy such a delicacy."
Sun Fei toyed with the silver crystal in his hand, deep in thought. He frowned and asked, "Just now I clearly sensed fluctuations of soul life force within this crystal, but now there's no movement at all."
"Haha, that's precisely what makes these beasts so peculiar. They possess a special ability to conceal all traces of themselves, including their life force. If they don't actively reveal themselves, even a True God- level expert would find it difficult to detect them," Ernst exclaimed. "They are truly an extremely peculiar life form. To be honest, I don't even know if I should consider them life forms. However, besides providing fat meat, I can't think of any other use for them."
"Oh, I actually think they're quite useful."
As Sun Fei spoke, he unleashed a shockwave of terror using a secret technique of spiritual power, penetrating deep into the silver crystal, intending to force the soul hidden within to emerge.
Sure enough, when the shockwave of fear passed through the crystal, a barely perceptible fluctuation of soul energy emanated from within, vanishing in an instant.
Sun Fei attempted to communicate using his mental power, threatening, "Little thing, I know you're in there. If you don't come out, I'll destroy you." With that, he exerted force with his fingers, using sixty percent of his strength.
With a surge of power, a fine silver crack appeared on the crystal.
"No, stop!" A furious and fearful roar finally came from within the crystal.
"That's good. If you answer my questions honestly, I'll spare your life." Sun Fei was secretly pleased, continuing his attempts to communicate while still threatening him.
"You greedy demons, you have already taken the body I painstakingly wove and created, what more do you want? The crystal is useless to you, why won't you let our people go?" The spiritual energy fluctuations within the silver crystal were filled with anger, grievance, and barely concealed fear.
"As the weak, you must be prepared to be enslaved. This world has always been a dog-eat-dog world. If condemnation were effective, you wouldn't always be slaughtered as food..." Sun Fei continued his intimidation and mockery, "What, are you feeling angry and wanting revenge? Too bad, what use are you besides making greasy fat?"
"You..."
The soul within the crystal surged violently, like a pot of oil sprinkled with salt, filled with intense anger and resentment. Finally, it condensed into a long, helpless sigh, remaining silent for a moment before saying, "What kind of creature are you? Why have I never seen anything like you before? You are far more powerful than those foolish and Behemoth Beastmen."
Sun Fei chuckled to himself.
The Behemoth Beastmen looked down on these strange beasts, treating them as food. Little did they know that these silver crystals were also intelligent beings. In the eyes of the crystals, the orcs were the epitome of ignorance and brutality.
"I am a great and noble human being, the master of the continent, the supreme race."
Sun Fei said shamelessly.
He keenly sensed that although these crystal lifeforms possessed intelligence, their level was equivalent to that of a six or seven-year-old human. Moreover, because they had lived in this Evil Water Swamp for generations and had never left the swamp to see the outside world, their understanding of the world was completely blank and ignorant. Even if Sun Fei claimed to be the creator god, these silver crystal lifeforms would probably have no reason to doubt him.
The "human" silver crystal was stunned.
It clearly had no idea what the word meant. Throughout its long lifespan, it had witnessed countless powerful Behemoth Beastmen come to the Evil Water Swamp to harvest the bodies of themselves and their companions, so it had a rudimentary understanding of orcs, but it had never heard the word "human" before.
"That's right, humans, the apex predators, the true powerhouses." Sun Fei continued his brainwashing process with an air of arrogance.
What is a food chain?
The silver crystal's inquisitive question nearly made Sun Fei burst out laughing. He paused, then changed his approach, using a tempting tone. "Do you know why your clan is so weak? Do you want to become stronger?"
"Because we lack strong bodies and weapons, my essence is far too weak." The silver crystal was about to be completely fooled by His Majesty the King. A race that had been treated like food and pigs, kept at the mercy of others, and as foolish as a blank sheet of paper, had accumulated resentment over thousands of years and was extremely sensitive to the word "become stronger."
"If I could grant you strong bodies and power commensurate with your mental strength, would you be willing to submit to me?" Sun Fei secretly rejoiced; deceiving filial sons was far too easy.
Sure enough, after the temptation was thrown out, a series of violently surging soul fluctuations emanated from the silver crystal. If the crystal had a body and expression, Sun Fei believed that what he saw would be a little kid drooling over candied hawthorns.
"Of course," a wave of eager anticipation emanated from the silver crystal, replying without hesitation, "If you can grant us strong bodies and great power, we will surely honor you as our king and pledge our loyalty to you."
Sun Fei stroked his chin. This was too easy to agree to; was he being deceived? After thinking for a moment, he said, "Since that's the case, show me your actions. If you want all this, you must first sign a soul contract with me. If you betray this promise, your soul will be scattered, and the entire Crystal Race will be completely wiped out from this world."
"I didn't ask any questions, great human being. If you can truly achieve everything you say, our entire race will grovel at your feet."
The soul fluctuations within the silver crystal were extremely intense, and it immediately agreed to Sun Fei's request.
His Majesty the King clicked his tongue. It seemed the Silver Crystal race was deeply obsessed with becoming stronger.
"In that case, you'll stay by my side for now. When the time is right, you'll get everything you need." Sun Fei thought for a moment and then temporarily put the silver crystal into his storage ring.
If his plan succeeds, the strength of Chambord City will increase countless times in a short period of time, making it the most terrifying force on the entire continent. It would be no problem to sweep away the Church and other major empires and alien races.
The entire exchange only lasted a few minutes.
Although Pope Ernst, the orcish ruler, was proficient in totemism and possessed vast knowledge, he was not skilled in spiritual power and thus unaware of the conversation between Sun Fei and the silver crystal. Seeing Sun Fei put the silver crystal away, he chuckled, "What, Your Majesty, are you interested in this kind of exotic beast?"
Sun Fei smiled and said, "This is the first time I've seen something like this. Don't you think it looks a lot like the diamonds from our past life? Such a big diamond, hehe, it's extremely rare. Keep a few and make some jewelry for your wife when we get back."
"Haha, I had the same idea at first. Making diamond jewelry to pick up girls is really cool. But this thing contains a soul. Sometimes it secretly absorbs the energy of heaven and earth, transforms it into matter, and releases death gas. It's like a time bomb, very troublesome. You have to be careful. You absolutely must not be careless."
Ernst, unsuspecting, smiled and gave Sun Fei his instructions.
Sun Fei nodded.
He didn't want to tell anyone about this matter until it was successful, because it was of utmost importance.
Time flies.
The Behemoth Beastmen were overjoyed as they slaughtered the strange beasts they called Meat Beast, and the edges of the Evil Water Swamp were already piled high with mountains of meat.
In the past, when these powerful individuals came here, they were separated by...
Therefore, they could only take away a small amount of tender meat. However, this time, they all received top-grade storage rings from Sun Fei, so they could naturally transport a large amount of beast meat back. They immediately opened their arms to slaughter, and in one afternoon, at least tens of thousands of Meat Beast were 'slaughtered'. The silver crystals obtained were naturally thrown back into the pool, waiting for them to condense into new bodies.
"It's almost time, we should head back."
As the Sun was about to set, Ernst ended his frenzied hunt.
The twenty-five Orc Clan returned laden with their spoils. The meat they stored this time was enough to feed an orc city for a whole winter. With these storage rings, if they could come a few more times, the Behemoth Beastmen would surely be able to have their first winter in a thousand years without a shortage of meat.
"Everyone, please go ahead. I'd like to stay here a little longer," Sun Fei suddenly said.
"Oh, does Your Majesty have something else to discuss?" Ernst was greatly surprised, and the other Orc Clan powerhouses also showed puzzled looks in their eyes.
"Previously in"
In the battle against the Dread Beast, I gained some insights, and my martial arts strength was about to achieve a new breakthrough, yet I remained just short, trapped in a bottleneck. I wanted to stay...
"The fighting and training, especially against the Dread Beast, is an excellent way to hone my skills. Perhaps it will allow me to break through my bottleneck. You all should return to your clans and handle their affairs, determining whether it is truly necessary to migrate the entire clan back to the Azeroth Continent. I believe that by the time I achieve my breakthrough, the Behemoth Beastman Clan will have made their decision, and then we can proceed to the next step. Chambord City is willing to provide all necessary assistance."
Sun Fei explained.
"I see. Very well, then we won't disturb Your Majesty any longer. We'll meet again in City of Behemoths in three days."
Ernst seemed to understand something, and without asking any more questions, he left with the powerful Behemoth Beastmen.
Sun Fei smiled and greeted everyone one by one, bidding them farewell.
Seeing the surge of spiritual energy, and confirming that all the Orc Clan powerhouses had departed, he didn't immediately begin his plan, but instead returned to...

strength.
Actually, Sun Fei hadn't lied before.
It's indeed close to the point of advancement, requiring the absorption of a large amount of mysterious free energy to advance its realm.
By noon the next day, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from the Metal Shamo, like that of a god. The Dread Beast within felt immense fear and howled in agony, as if it were the end of the world. They trembled with dread, their fear unending.
And outside the Shamo, having just returned
Pope Ernst of the Beast God Temple seemed to sense something, turning back to gaze at the Metal Shamo, a smile appearing on his face, " Alexander has finally taken this step? Very good, one step closer to the plan. My time in this world is running out. I hope to perfectly complete my mission. Alexander, don't let me down."
In Metal Shamo.
Sun Fei slowly emerged from the storm, a joyful expression on his face.
His Demigod realm was finally completely stabilized; it turned out that it was actually...
The power of that domain... it's actually this kind of ability...
Slowly arriving at the edge of the Evil Water Swamp, Sun Fei pondered quietly for a moment, then took out a black suit of armor from his storage ring and placed it beside him.
"Greetings to Your Majesty, the Supreme and Great Alexander. Your humble servant Basturk, sends his greetings. May I ask, Your Majesty, what may I do for you?"
The man in black armor prostrated himself on the ground, bowing obsequiously to Sun Fei.
This terrified fellow was none other than the Dark One Basturk. After being yelled at by the two magic madmen Cain and dismembered and studied thousands of times by the nun and her disciples, he was completely terrified. Furthermore, he had been branded with a mental mark by Sun Fei and was now developing into a sycophant like Oleg, completely abandoning his dignity as a Demigod. In fact, he was even showing signs of surpassing Oleg in his humility.
"You stand aside and keep watch for me. I have important matters to attend to." Sun Fei gestured for the Darkness Demon Armor to stand up.
"Yes, great and noble master, your servant is willing to serve you." The Dark Demon Armor rose respectfully, bowed repeatedly, and began to guard the surroundings.
Sun Fei nodded in satisfaction and took out a Mithril armored puppet and the silver crystal from his storage ring.
