Three black shadows quickly approached from a distance. They cautiously observed the outside for a while, and after discussing the countermeasures, they rushed into the cave together.
Xia Fan and Fu You saw that two of them were long-range warriors, using Frost and Raging Fire respectively. The other one was a flying superpower user, specializing in attracting the attention of the vine monster.
All three of them were at least at the Advanced Galaxy level, and it was not their first time working together. They had a tacit understanding with each other.
First, the Frost superpower user released a cloud of white cold mist. The cold mist struck the vine monster's body like lightning, quickly freezing the tree vines. Then, the guy who released Raging Fire burned the vine monster fiercely. The temperature fluctuated, causing the vine monster to suffer serious damage, and large pieces of its limbs fell off.
As for the flying-type warrior, he was nimbly weaving through the air. The rattan monster wanted to catch him, but it couldn't do anything about his small body size and agility. The huge rattan vines clawed wildly in the air, but it couldn't catch him. On the other hand, the monster itself had two of its branches broken, and its combat power was greatly reduced.
* Rumble! *
The rock wall was attacked by the vine monster and kept falling. Xia Fan and Fu You had to quickly retreat until they reached a depression in the rock wall. They continued to watch the three superpower users deal with the vine monster.
It did not take long for the vine monster to die. After all four branches were broken, it could only control a small area in front of it.
At this time, the three of them arrived beside the vine monster and used fire and ice to kill the vine monster in one go.
It sounded simple, but the process of the battle lasted for a full 20 minutes. The three spent a lot of effort to finally kill it.
"We finally killed this monster."
"It wasn't easy. Let's leave after taking the things. Recently, there have been more and more high-level monsters like this, and they're getting harder to deal with."
"That's right. It seems that the changes in God's Capital are getting worse. I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
"Of course it's a good thing for us. If there weren't so many monsters, how could we get the precious crystals?"
"That's true. Although no one likes monsters, crystals are really good stuff."
The three of them talked while looking for something. They took out a red crystal about the size of an adult's fist from the head of the dead brown bear.
Then, the three of them cut open the body of the tree vine monster, and a green crystal, about the size of two adult fists, popped out.
Xia Fan saw that the two crystals were very special. There was a layer of black mist on them, and the smell was very strange. It smelled like energy crystals, but different.
After obtaining the two crystals, the three of them left this place and went to look for new targets.
Fu You and Xia Fan walked out of their hiding place and saw that the scene was a mess. Blood mixed with the black juice of the Tree Vine Monster, giving off an unpleasant smell. After the Tree Vine Monster died, its body gradually withered.
"This smell is really pungent. Let's leave this place quickly," Fo You said while covering his nose.
Xia Fan shook his head with a strange expression on his face. He sniffed the vine monster's body a few times.
Fo You took a step back and looked at Xia Fan as if he was a monster. "Damn, what's so good about this weird smell?"
Xia Fan chuckled. "Of course it doesn't taste good, but I've discovered that there are crystals underneath the vine monster's body."
Fo You was stunned. He wanted to ask Xia Fan how he knew, but he suddenly remembered that Xia Fan's nose was more sensitive than a dog's, so he didn't say anything and just shook his head.
Xia Fan circled around the corpse and selected a spot. He took out a folding shovel from his Infinite Space Ring and quickly dug the ground. Since he was a speed user, Xia Fan finished the work in an instant. The ground was dug more than ten meters deep.
He should have reached the place where the crystals were buried. Xia Fan was afraid of damaging the crystals, so he dropped the shovel, put on gloves, and dug the soil with his bare hands.
His fingers suddenly touched something hard. He took it out and saw that it was indeed a crystal.
It didn't take long for Xia Fan to jump out of the pit with 76 crystals of different sizes and colors.
When he put these crystals on the ground, Fo You was dumbfounded.
"Those three guys fought for so long, but in the end, they only took away two crystals. You, on the other hand, dug out so many with your superpower of smell?" Fo You was surprised.
He felt sorry for those three guys. They were the ones who killed the monsters, but Xia Fan picked up the biggest harvest. The superpower of smell was really amazing. Although it couldn't be used in battle, it could come in handy at critical moments.
Xia Fan smiled and said, "This vine monster may have a habit of hiding things. After killing the enemy, it hid the crystals underground so that it could eat them when there was nothing to eat in the future. This is normal. Many creatures in the natural world have the habit of storing food."
Fo You was skeptical. He took out a yellow crystal in his hand and frowned. "Do you think this thing can be eaten? Look carefully. The color inside is not pure. There are some black things in it. It's like a fruit with mold. I'm afraid you'll get sick if you don't eat it. "
Xia Fan shrugged. "It smells a bit like energy crystals. I'm not sure if it's edible or not. Put it away first."
Fo You put away the crystals, and Xia Fan took out one of them and compared it with a level-nine energy crystal.
He had always had level-nine energy crystals with him. He originally had forty-seven of them, but after a series of incredible encounters such as the battle in the devil's den, he had used up some of the crystals, leaving him with forty-three. These were all precious treasures. After eating them, there would be no place to find more, so he had always cherished them. He would not use them unless it was absolutely necessary.
Energy crystals were also divided into different colors, and different colors represented different levels. However, these crystals were not born in nature. They grew in the bodies of animals or plants. In addition, there were black spots inside the crystals, which looked like mold, so Xia Fan did not dare to try eating them.
It was almost time to go back. Xia Fan and Fo You went back the way they came and found Long Du. The landlord's silly son was very happy to see his two bodyguards come back safely, so he invited them to the hotel for dinner.
When all the dishes were served, Xia Fan closed the door of the private room and took out a crystal to show Long Du. When the guy saw that it was a crystal, his jaw almost dropped.
"How did you get this thing?" Long Du asked.
Xia Fan said that he killed a big bear, and it grew in the bear's head. So he took it, but he did not know what it was.
Long Du nodded. "So you encountered those monsters. To be honest, this kind of crystal is a treasure. The people of God's Capital tried their best to collect it for cultivation. It is said that it can increase one's level."
"Anyway, the effect is a bit like an energy crystal, but it is more powerful. Those guys are going crazy looking for this thing. Such a small piece can be exchanged for a cruiser."
Xia Fan understood that the people of God's Capital used this thing as an energy crystal. A long time ago, Cangyue Universe was full of energy, and many energy crystals grew. However, with the continuous mining, the energy crystals were gradually emptied, especially the high-grade energy crystals. The price rose every year, and their value increased faster than stocks.
Xia Fan asked, "Are there any side effects from eating this thing?"
Long Du pointed to the horn on his head. "There are no side effects. It's just that the horn will grow. If you look at people on the street with longer horns, they must have eaten too many crystals."
Xia Fan and Fo You frowned at the same time. They liked to increase their level, but they did not like to grow horns on their heads. It was too strange to run around the streets with horns on their heads.
At that moment, a white light suddenly appeared in the sky, illuminating the dark night.
Xia Fan was stunned. He opened the window and saw the starry sky in the distance cracking. A planet split into two halves and became two planets.
"It has only been less than 24 hours. Isn't the speed of the planet splitting too fast?" Xia Fan said in surprise.
