Playing Ball

The energy entity grabbed the red Divine Crystal, gave Lu Qing'an a cold laugh, and then quickly tried to devour Divine Crystal.

Once it devours this Divine Crystal, it will surpass Lu Qing'an in strength!

I won't be bullied anymore!

This time, it learned its lesson. After swallowing the Divine Crystal, it had to find a way to break out of the barrier as soon as possible and leave!

I'm not fighting Lu Qing'an anymore!

That way, even if we ultimately lose, at least we can escape!

Just as it was thinking this and preparing to devour the red Divine Crystal, it found that time seemed to suddenly slow down.

Suddenly, it was as if the world had been turned upside down.

A terrifying suction force suddenly appeared on its body, and it was moved to a certain place in the blink of an eye.

Its vision went black for a moment, and when it regained its sight, it found a tall figure standing beside it.

It didn't even have the ability to react just now, and Lu Qing'an forcibly pulled it to his side!

"This time it will be even more painful."

Lu Qing'an's voice entered the energy body.

The energy entity's body began to tremble violently.

It has now realized that it misjudged Lu Qing'an's strength again!

How can he be so strong?!

It's so much stronger now!!!

"Coo coo!" The energy entity quickly handed over the red Divine Crystal, looking up at Lu Qing'an like a dog with wide, clear eyes.

Lu Qing'an grinned. "It's too late to change your mind."

Energy body. "..."

"Coo coo coo coo!!!!"

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!!!!

A strange scream echoed through the heavens and earth.

After snatching the red Divine Crystal, Lu Qing'an kicked forward, sending the energy body flying and instantly crashing into the barrier.

The first layer of the barrier was shattered!

Before the energy entity could react, he was already behind it again, delivering another kick.

He repeated this motion, dodging and kicking, for about fifteen minutes before finally stopping.

The entire spherical energy body has now deflated by half, like a large balloon that has lost its air, its aura extremely weak.

It almost exploded; half of its life force was gone!

Lu Qing'an ultimately decided to keep the energy body.

After all, he might need the Divine Crystal later, and having this energy body would indeed make it easier to find it.

After disciplining the energy entity, he put it away, removed the barrier, and returned to Liu Xiyue and the others.

At this moment, Liu Xiyue looked at Lu Qing'an as if he were a god.

When the energy body faced the crystal, it directly crushed it, but Lu Qing'an actually crushed the energy body!

Its terrifying strength is self-evident!!

Is this really a level of power that humans can achieve?!

Lu Qing'an looked at Liu Xiyue and said, "What I promised you, you won't be shortchanged. Here, take this."

He still needed to study the red Divine Crystal that had gained sentience, so he took out the egg-sized Divine Crystal he had extracted from the man-eating flower and tossed it to Liu Xiyue.

Liu Xiyue's eyes lit up.

So generous?!

To be honest, he had considered that if Lu Qing'an didn't give him a single piece, he would have no choice but to swallow his pride and accept the loss.

I'll just consider it a bad bet.

He was quite surprised when Lu Qing'an actually gave it to him!

"You really gave it to me?" He asked tentatively, afraid that Lu Qing'an would regret it.

Lu Qing'an said, "If you don't want it, I can take it back."

"Yes! Absolutely!" Liu Xiyue nodded vigorously.

Lu Qing'an smiled and said, "Continue searching for other crystals. If you have any news, contact me immediately. I'll still leave you some benefits in the future."

"Alright! It's settled then!" Liu Xiyue smiled broadly. He wasn't greedy; he was already quite satisfied if Lu Qing'an could eat meat while he could have a sip of soup beside him!

Lu Qing'an nodded, then took Xue Tianfei and Xiao Qingyi with him, shattered the void, and left.

In the blink of an eye, they were back in the courtyard.

Liu Xiyue and the others breathed a sigh of relief after watching Lu Qing'an leave.

"This is too powerful! Is this the strength of the Eternal Night Demon Emperor?!"

"That man-eating plant ate many of our brothers, yet he still managed to catch it!"

"That sphere is even stranger! It gives me the feeling that a thousand of me wouldn't be enough to take it down! Compared to it, it really really looks like a ball!"

After returning to the courtyard, Lu Qing'an released the soul and then took out the brown Divine Crystal the size of a pigeon egg, and the red Divine Crystal that he had sealed with several layers of barriers.

"Look, this must be the Divine Crystal you were talking about, right?"

The moment the soul appeared, it saw two Divine Crystal, especially the red Divine Crystal that was the size of a human head, and couldn't help but exclaim, "You actually found such a large fire-attribute Divine Crystal!!"

"Divine Crystal also divided into five elements?" Lu Qing'an asked.

"Yes, they are divided into metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and their colors are gold, green, blue, red, and black, respectively," the soul said.

"Hmm, look at this fire-attribute Divine Crystal. It seems to have gained sentience. Can this thing even transform into Forbidden Living Being?"

The Ominous Holy Spirit is something that possesses life and is born with intelligence, such as the Demon God Mother Tree.

Forbidden Living Being are not living beings, but they also possess sentience.

For such a thing to develop sentience, it either needs to exist for a sufficiently long time, or be in a special area, or be influenced by a special energy field, etc., in order to undergo transformation.

The soul exclaimed, "This! There really is a soul fluctuation inside! Good heavens! You've hit the jackpot! This is a top-grade fire-attribute Divine Crystal!!"

"Divine Crystal are graded?"

Lu Qing'an gently raised her eyes. Wasn't this similar to Spirit Stone and Demon Crystal?

"Naturally, there are different levels, and only the highest-level Divine Crystal Divine Crystal give birth to souls and intelligence! Furthermore, Divine Crystal that have given birth to souls will be enhanced even more after being refined!"

"That's good. How many Peak Great Emperor Realm experts do you think I can raise to the same strength as this thing?" Lu Qing'an casually took out the energy body that he had kicked not long ago and had half of its air leaked out, and asked.

This thing is probably about three times stronger than it used to be.

The soul was clearly taken aback when it saw the energy body.

Or perhaps, they were startled.

After all, they are the regulators.

This horrific scene... what... what happened?!

It feels like you just got a really bad beating!

"I can't say for sure, but I guess I can train around three," the soul said, sounding very uncertain.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing'an nodded and then asked, "How do I refine and absorb it?"

He simply had someone try it!

There happened to be Divine Crystal the size of a pigeon's egg.

"That's simple. After the Divine Crystal is activated, use a special method to absorb it into your Dantian and refine it over time."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing'an looked at Xiao Qingyi and Xue Tianfei and asked, "Which of you wants this piece?"

Xiao Qingyi quickly jumped in. "Ahem, let me test it out for you! After all, we're not sure if this thing is dangerous, and I like taking risks!"

"You're still so shameless," Xue Tianfei said with a laugh.

"Ahem, is it wrong to want to become stronger?"

"Of course, let's begin." Lu Qing'an smiled and tossed the Divine Crystal, the size of a pigeon's egg, to Xiao Qingyi.
