High Priest Nash of Fox chuckled and explained, "They have absolutely nothing to do with the Dread Beast. Although these strange creatures are even larger than the Dread Beast, they are pitifully weak in terms of combat power. They can only survive in environments like the Evil Water Swamp, where there isn't much natural space."
"Now that you mention it, I'm even more curious. Let's catch one!" Sun Fei's curiosity was piqued.
"Haha, what's so difficult about that?"
Bear, the Minotaur Clan Nowitzki, laughed heartily, and with a wave of his hand, a surge of immense Dou Qi aura erupted from the distance.
It then summoned a small, weak, beast-like Dread Beast from the air, grabbed it above the treacherous lake, and with a bang, crushed the frantically struggling and howling Dread Beast like a watermelon, sending its foul-smelling blood and chunks of flesh crashing into the crystal-clear water below.
Sun Fei was puzzled by Nowitzki's actions...
Suddenly, the calm water below, upon seeing a trace of blood, began to boil uncontrollably, as if it were being scalded.
The bottom of the originally pale white pool began to writhe wildly, starting slowly and then violently. In the end, the entire body of water became completely chaotic. Sun Fei clearly saw that the pale white, muddy-like substance was actually rising from the water, engulfing the blood, flesh, and severed limbs of the Dread Beast that had fallen into the water. Like a frenzied sponge, it wriggled and chewed, absorbing all the remains of Dread Beast that was over fifty meters tall in an instant.
It was at this moment that this once lifeless and desolate lake suddenly and without warning began to be filled with countless fluctuations of life Spiritual Power.
This sudden change completely shocked Sun Fei.
Just moments ago, he had released a massive surge of Spiritual Power to probe the area, and there was absolutely no sign of any life or soul fluctuations within a ten-kilometer radius. His Spiritual Power probing had never failed him, so why was he unable to detect these countless sudden spiritual fluctuations this time?
At this point, the presence of life forms below could be seen with the naked eye.
One after another, 'mountains of flesh' rolled out of the pool. It turned out that the pale white mud and sand at the bottom of the water was actually the soft flesh of the abdomen of a very large life form. In fact, this strange life form was entirely made of soft flesh, with various shapes. Most of them were plump and long, like silkworms magnified countless times, or more like piles of fat, wriggling and trembling slightly, frantically fighting for the flesh and blood of the Dread Beast.
That surging surge of Spiritual Power emanated from this fluid of soft flesh.
"Could it be that this strange creature is also proficient in Spiritual Power techniques, which is why it can Avoid my Spiritual Power detection?" Sun Fei's eyes were wide open. The wonders of nature are truly beyond human comprehension.
On the other side, Nowitzki and the other powerful Orc Clan were all excited upon seeing this scene. They laughed heartily and began hunting down this strange life form with a fervor that even Sun Fei found astonishing.
O'Neal was the most excited.
With a burst of wild laughter, the Grizzly's Dou Qi spirit surged, and with a swift movement, it grabbed a beast over a hundred meters tall from the water. With a casual slap, the beast was reduced to hundreds of uniformly sized, tender pieces of meat. Surprisingly, no blood gushed out; instead, streams of fragrant juice flowed out.
At this moment, the look of surprise on Sun Fei's face deepened.
Judging from the frequency of its soul and Spiritual Power fluctuations, despite being nearly torn to pieces, the life force of this mountain of flesh-like beast was not weakened at all; on the contrary, it became even stronger. The Spiritual Power fluctuations it emitted did not show the painful struggle of someone facing death, nor did they show any anger. After a slight panic, it calmed down, as if it had become accustomed to it.
O'Neal searched for a while and found a shiny crystal the size of an adult's fist in a piece of pink, tender flesh, which he casually tossed into the lake.
Sun Fei's eyes lit up.
He discovered that all the Spiritual Power fluctuations emanating from this strange beast actually came from this crystal.
When they turned around again, almost every Orc Clan warrior was repeating the same thing as the Grizzly O'Neal.
The fanatical beastmen dragged the enormous beast from the water, shredded its body with their Dou Qi, and then kept the tender, fragrant pieces of meat, but threw the strange silver crystal that was stirring up soul fluctuations back into the water.
In the blink of an eye, the edge of the Evil Water Swamp was piled high with neatly cut pieces of meat.
At this point, Sun Fei had begun to understand.
So these guys were hunting!
This strange beast was enormous, with tender pink flesh and a unique aroma; it must have been an extremely delicious ingredient.
For the Behemoth Beastmen, such a delicacy is truly rare, and ordinary people simply cannot reach this place to capture these beasts.
However, Sun Fei's attention was still drawn to the glittering silver crystal.
With a wave of his hand, he retrieved a crystal that had been thrown into the water.
This silver crystal is the size of an adult's fist. Like a diamond carved by a master craftsman in a past life, its surface is divided into different facets, shimmering with a crystal-clear silver luster. It is exceptionally dazzling under the sunlight, and its texture is extremely crystalline, without the slightest impurity. Every internal structure can be clearly seen. Light passes through it, refracting and decomposing into rays of colorful light.
These crystals, devoid of any magical aura, had previously emitted vibrant Spiritual Power fluctuations, like living souls.
But now, when Sun Fei held it in his hand, it seemed as if there was nothing inside. The soul fluctuations had vanished without a trace. Sun Fei released his Spiritual Power to scan it very carefully, but he found nothing unusual and did not detect any signs of soul fluctuations.
"How could this be? Am I wrong?"
Sun Fei was even more surprised.
He squeezed it slightly, only to find that the silver, transparent crystal was incredibly hard. With just a fraction of his strength, he couldn't even break it.
Sun Fei's curiosity grew even stronger.
That's really strange.
"Your Majesty has misjudged this time. This crystal is quite beautiful, but it's actually useless. It can neither guide Dou Qi nor serve as an attachment for totem patterns. Moreover, its texture is too hard to be carved or polished into ornaments. It would be better to throw it back into the lake and let it absorb the natural energy between heaven and earth. After a year, it will recreate large chunks of fresh meat, haha!"
Pope Ernst approached Sun Fei and said with a smile.
Sun Fei raised an eyebrow, surprised, and asked, "Does Your Majesty mean that if this crystal is placed in a pool of water, it can regenerate after a year?"
