"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Cui. We have known each other for many years. I keep my word and will definitely help you first to seize the Black Tortoise Crystal. I just hope that Fellow Daoist Cui will not forget my needs after seizing the spiritual stone."
Neither Sun Mingsheng nor Cui Yuhuo will easily give up the corresponding attribute crystals that are related to the future path.
After the two of them gave each other some advice, they went to the location of the Four Symbols Crystals and the Sun and Moon Crystals.
At present, the six crucial crystals have not yet matured and are still in a growth stage. This process must not be interrupted easily. Once interrupted, the crystals will immediately become worthless waste, and will immediately turn into highly toxic substances under the erosion of the unique toxins in the poisonous fog space.
Therefore, the nine Jindan-stage cultivators who arrived here first did not fight for it. Although the atmosphere among them was quite stiff, they finally maintained a relatively stable state.
Opposite the nine Jindan-stage cultivators, in addition to the six crystal stones that were about to mature, a large number of poisonous insects and beasts belonging to this place were also indispensable.
Sun Mingsheng and Cui Yuhuo had killed a highly poisonous anteater on their way forward, and there were three of them here. There were more than seven other unknown poisonous insects and beasts, each of which exuded a strong enough evil spirit, and each of them was no weaker than the third-level middle-grade existence.
The arrival of the two immediately attracted the attention of the other nine Jindan-stage cultivators. After looking at each other, no one tried to stop them.
Some of these nine Jindan-stage cultivators were Song-state cultivators who had met once before, and there were also some completely unfamiliar ones.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Cui, the external affairs elder of the Beast Taming Sect, and Fellow Daoist Sun from the Sun family. Since the two Daoists have come together, they are naturally for the Four Symbols Crystal and the Sun and Moon Crystal. However, before you and I compete, we need to expel or kill all these poisonous insects and beasts first."
An old man holding a Zen stick and with a strong aura spoke first, and was the first to confirm the identities and details of the two.
"We haven't seen each other for nearly a hundred years. Fellow Daoist Qi has made great progress and is only one step away from the late stage of the Golden Core. If he gets a crystal this time, he will have no obstacles in advancing to the late stage."
Cui Yuhuo is obviously quite familiar with this old man. This Golden Core cultivator named Qi also has a great reputation in Song State.
Born as a casual cultivator, he only has four spiritual roots. He accidentally inherited the mantle of an ancient cultivator. In the last time when his life span was less than 20 years and his body functions declined significantly, he broke the bottleneck and condensed a golden core.
The Jindan cultivator surnamed Qi had not been in the cultivation world for a full hundred years. Many cultivators subconsciously thought that he had passed away. They did not expect that he had already reached the peak of the sixth level of Jindan when he appeared here. Obviously, he was also lucky.
"The old man is alone and has limited qualifications. He cannot be compared with the talented cultivators of the families and sects. His life span is not much left. I hope you can show mercy."
The Jindan cultivator surnamed Qi was quite humble, but no one present believed it easily. Any cultivator who can get to this point is the best among the same level, and his feet are built on countless dead bones along the way.
"Fellow Daoist Qi, you are joking. Everyone in the Song Kingdom's cultivation world knows that you have a rich fate with immortals and have received the legacy of several great masters. How can we underestimate you?"
Cui Yuhuo changed the topic in a few words. Sun Mingsheng never participated in it from beginning to end. His eyes and consciousness were always observing the situation of the crystals. Once there was any movement, he would fight for it at the first time.
The six crystals were like gluttonous beasts that could never be full, madly devouring the spiritual power within a radius of 100 miles. However, when all the spiritual power gathered above the crystals, there were certain differences when carefully observed.
The Four Symbols Crystals refined different colors of spiritual power according to their different properties. The Sun and Moon Crystals had no specific requirements for the spiritual power that swarmed in. After devouring the Four Symbols Crystals, the remaining spiritual power was swallowed into the body for refining.
In the whole process, Sun Mingsheng could easily feel the continuous growth of the six crystals through his consciousness, and he was one step closer to true maturity.
"Poisonous insects and beasts, a group of cultivators with their own thoughts, once the crystal is mature, I am afraid that the real melee will be triggered at any time."
Sun Mingsheng has a lot of experience, and he immediately has a clear understanding of the situation of the cultivators in front of him. At present, they seem to be harmonious, but once the crystal is truly mature, all the promises will be removed from their minds, including the so-called agreement between Sun Mingsheng and Cui Yuhuo.
On the other hand, Cui Yuhuo is the same. Once he really seizes a basalt crystal in a situation where there are more wolves than meat, his first choice must be to first keep the treasure in his hand and escape, and he will definitely not take the risk to help him fight for the Suzaku crystal.
In fact, based on the current situation, Sun Mingsheng has two choices. First, the Suzaku crystal contains the essence and origin of the fire attribute, and second, the Sun and Moon crystal that can be refined regardless of the attribute.
"Compared to the Suzaku crystal, the Sun and Moon crystal is obviously more popular. The former is still certain to get it in the bag, but the latter is probably beyond his ability."
After some thought, Sun Mingsheng had a clear choice in his mind for the follow-up, which was the Vermillion Bird Crystal, which had a more obvious effect after refining.
"Dong Dong Dong"
Under the scorching eyes of a group of Jindan-stage cultivators, the six crystals suddenly emitted a series of sounds like a big bell hitting the body's heartbeat.
Including Sun Mingsheng, the eleven cultivators and more than ten third-level middle-grade poisonous insects and beasts, each shot out greedy eyes and stared at their respective targets, not daring to relax at all.
This huge heartbeat was a sign that the Four Symbols Crystal and the Sun and Moon Crystal were about to mature, and it was also a prelude to a large-scale melee.
Originally, because the six crystals had not yet matured, the cultivators and poisonous beasts who maintained a balance with each other were hostile to each other.
"Swoosh"
A poisonous beast that stood on the ground with two feet, which looked about 70% similar to a mouse, suddenly grew a pair of small wings on its back. At the moment when the Four Symbols Crystal and the Sun and Moon Crystal were about to mature, it turned into a stream of light and rushed straight to the Azure Dragon Crystal with a strong wood attribute.
"Evil beast, how dare you do this?"
Several wood attribute Jindan stage cultivators among the eleven cultivators also shouted and immediately blocked it. A large number of various wood attribute means appeared out of thin air on the way that this monster must pass to the Azure Dragon Crystal.
Almost at the first moment when both sides attacked, other cultivators, poisonous insects and poisonous beasts also went to their own target crystals.
When all cultivators, poisonous insects and poisonous beasts approached the crystal first, they would encounter tacit obstruction from other cultivators, poisonous insects and poisonous beasts who were slightly behind.
The explosion between a large number of poisonous insects and poisonous beasts and cultivators could not be ignored by any cultivator present.
