However, just as Zhao Hai's voice fell, the stone crabs suddenly exploded. Then one by one, the stone crabs shot towards Zhao Hai and the others like cannonballs. This change made the trio's expression change. One must know that their barrier didn't have any defensive capabilities.
With a thought, Zhao Hai waved his hand as a blue light flew out from his hand. The lake water in front of him turned into a wall of ice in front of them.
Then they heard some popping sounds as cracks appeared on Zhao Hai's ice wall. Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai and Pu Li were startled. They didn't think that the stone crabs would be this strong.
Before long, the thumping sounds disappeared. With a thought from Zhao Hai, the ice wall also disappeared. And when the ice wall melted, a lot of crabs fell out of it. It was clear that these crabs were now free from the ice wall.
Originally, Zhao Hai thought that the stone crabs would die from the impact. However, what surprised Zhao Hai was that the stone crabs didn't seem to have suffered any injuries. They fell to the bottom of the lake and then began to crawl around. It seems like they weren't injured at all.
Zhao Hai looked at the stone crabs and couldn't help but let out a long breath, "That was close. These stone crabs are really strong. None of them died."
Pu Li and Gong Yu's expression changed as well. They looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, we should leave as soon as possible. These stone crabs don't seem to be easy to deal with."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Why should we leave? Why do we have to leave? I want to see what other tricks these stone crabs can play. Mr. Pu, Mr. Gong, this underwater forest is definitely a treasure trove for botanists. If we can study this place thoroughly, then we can find a way to deal with the Sea Tribe. Therefore, we can't leave. Not only can we not leave, I want to stay and carefully observe this forest. I want to know what else is in this forest. "
Just as Zhao Hai was speaking, the stone crabs gathered together and formed a new stone pillar. Then the stone crabs began to attack again.
However, this time, they were blocked by Zhao Hai's ice wall. Not only did Zhao Hai block the stone crabs, he even froze some of them. Then he followed Pu Li and Gong Yu towards the surface of the lake. Before long, they soared up from the lake and flew back to the camp.
Upon seeing Zhao Hai and the others returning so early and Zhao Hai holding a large block of ice, Liu Li knew that something had happened. He immediately went over and looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, what happened? Did something happen? "
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "We were attacked by a group of crabs at the bottom of the lake. Therefore, today's observation of the lake had to end early."
Liu Li looked at Zhao Hai in confusion and said, "Crabs? Mister, are you talking about crabs? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Right, crabs. I also brought some back." Then Zhao Hai placed the block of ice on the ground. Then with an intention, the block of ice slowly disappeared, revealing several stone crabs inside.
Liu Li curiously looked at the frozen crabs. After the crabs were defrosted, they immediately started to crawl around. But soon after, the crabs started to crazily crawl on the ground. At the same time, the bodies of these white stone crabs started to emit black gas. This black gas was very dark. After it came out of their bodies, it slowly disappeared into the air. And when the black gas appeared, the crabs became even crazier. They kept crawling and jumping on the ground.
However, as the black gas in their bodies decreased, the movements of the crabs became slower and slower. In the end, when the last bit of black gas came out, the crabs slowly shrank and turned into oval-shaped white stones. A white stone without any life.
Zhao Hai stared at the white stones. He picked up a stone from the ground and broke it with his hand. The stone was broken into two halves, but this one was solid!
It was solid! Everyone who saw this scene was stunned. They clearly saw a crab crawling all over the ground, but now they were holding a solid stone in their hands. This was too strange.
Liu Li's expression changed. Then he grabbed another stone. Then with a flash of golden light, the stone was also broken. However, the stone was also solid. Seeing this, the group didn't speak.
"Hahahaha!" At this time, Zhao Hai laughed, attracting everyone's attention. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "Isn't this interesting? Crabs that can turn into stone have great attacking power in the water. Most importantly, once these crabs come out of the water and see light, they will immediately turn into stone. I'm going to do an experiment right now to see if this experiment will succeed or not. "
After he said that, Zhao Hai picked up a stone and flew directly to the surface of the lake. Then he plunged into the lake. His movements were very fast, Liu Li and the others didn't have time to react. By the time they reacted, Zhao Hai had already entered the lake. Seeing Zhao Hai's movements, Liu Li and the others immediately knew what Zhao Hai was going to do. Pu Li and Gong Yu's expressions changed. The two of them also rushed to the surface of the lake and plunged into it.
At this time, Zhao Hai took the stone. His body emitted a green light as he dived into the water. Before long, he reached the bottom of the lake. Then he placed the stone on the bottom of the lake. Then he retreated a certain distance, allowing the Nature force to be further away from the stone. Then he carefully observed the stone.
As soon as the stone left the range of the Nature force, it was immediately surrounded by a black mist. Then when the black mist disappeared, the stone actually moved. Then it stretched out its legs and slowly turned into a crab in front of Zhao Hai. Then the crab crawled around twice before it disappeared into the forest.
At this time, Pu Li and Gong Yu arrived at Zhao Hai's side. Zhao Hai smiled faintly at the two and then pointed upwards. The three of them soared into the sky and quickly flew out of the lake, returning to the camp.
At this time, Liu Li was also flying in the air and looking at the lake. When he saw the three returning to the camp, he also landed. Then Liu Li, Pu Li, and Gong Yu stared at Zhao Hai, they wanted to hear what Zhao Hai had to say.
Zhao Hai looked at the three and smiled faintly. "Very interesting. The stone went to the bottom of the lake and absorbed some of the black gas. Then it turned into a crab and climbed up."
Liu Li and the others' expressions couldn't help but change. Liu Li opened his mouth and said, "So there's a kind of energy at the bottom of the lake that can turn stones into living creatures? But this energy seems to be afraid of sunlight? "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's roughly what it means. But I think that this energy should be harmless. Otherwise, it would be impossible for people to drink the lake's water and be fine. Moreover, after so many years, I haven't heard of people being attacked by strange things in the lake, right?"
Liu Li's expression looked better, but he still said, "But what kind of energy is it? Can it give life to a stone? "
Zhao Hai replied, "The most important thing is the black mist. It seems like it's at the bottom of the lake, but you can't see it nor can you touch it. Moreover, when we were observing the bottom of the lake these past few days, we didn't feel any energy. This is what I'm most surprised about. It seems like tomorrow, we shouldn't just observe the plants in the lake. We should go deeper into the forest and find the source of the energy. We must figure out what it is." Zhao Hai nodded, "That's right.
Liu Li nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I'll go with you tomorrow. We can cover our bodies with energy and then dive into the lake. Although the time we spend in the lake will be shorter, we can still fight in the lake."
Zhao Hai didn't object, after all, Liu Li was also a Sky Dance Expert. If four Sky Dance Experts enter the lake, then they would be able to take care of each other. Therefore, Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll enter the lake tomorrow. Right, everyone, let's write a letter to the Academies about this matter. It seems like the Wen Ji Continent has a lot of strange places waiting for us to explore. I'm starting to like this operation even more."
Seeing Zhao Hai's excited expression, Liu Li and the others smiled bitterly and shook their heads. Then they cupped their fists towards Zhao Hai before returning to their tents. At the same time, Zhao Hai also took the crab-shaped stones into his tent.
After entering the tent, Zhao Hai immediately threw the stones into the Space. When he sent the stones back to the bottom of the lake, he had already absorbed some of the water into the Space. When the water entered the Space, it immediately turned into black gas. Then this black gas slowly seeped into the taiji diagram. However, this black gas wasn't simply integrated into the taiji diagram. Whether it was natural energy on the left or destruction energy on the right, it could be integrated into both. Then the taiji diagram rotated even faster. After the taiji diagram rotated a few times, a black crystal-like object fell out of the diagram and directly fell to the ground. Zhao Hai didn't think that the black gas would be able to integrate into the taiji diagram. Zhao Hai didn't think too much about it.
This black crystal-like object wasn't very big, it was only the size of a fingernail. However, it was crystal clear and very beautiful. At this time, Zhao Hai also noticed this black crystal. With an intention, the black crystal floated into the air. Then Zhao Hai used his spiritual force to carefully sense the crystal. However, he couldn't feel anything. Zhao Hai didn't give up, he finally decided to use his spiritual force to slowly enter the crystal. He wanted to know what this crystal was.
As soon as Zhao Hai's spiritual force contacted the black crystal, Zhao Hai felt a very pure power. This was a power that Zhao Hai hadn't come into contact with before. It was a very strange power. In the power of destruction, there was a trace of natural energy. In the natural energy, there was also a trace of the power of civilization. In the center of this power, there was a kind of energy that Zhao Hai hadn't come into contact with before. This energy made Zhao Hai feel an unimaginably powerful vitality. This vitality was something that Zhao Hai had never encountered before. This made Zhao Hai very surprised.
Just as Zhao Hai felt this black crystal, it suddenly exploded. The natural energy, the power of destruction, and the power of civilization all disappeared. Only the vitality was left. The vitality directly integrated into Zhao Hai's spiritual force. However, Zhao Hai didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he felt that his spiritual force became faster.
At this time, Zhao Hai also withdrew his spiritual force. Zhao Hai was surprised to find that whether it was his body or the energy in his body, there was a certain degree of increase. The most obvious increase was his spiritual force.
However, Zhao Hai was very clear that what he increased wasn't only his spiritual force. Spiritual force was only an external manifestation. What he really increased was his spiritual force. In other words, the black gas was the purest form of spiritual force.
According to Zhao Hai's understanding, spiritual force was divided into two types. One was one's own spiritual force. Spiritual force was almost quantitative. If one's spiritual force was as big as a bucket, then it would always be that big. There were very few external forces that could increase one's spiritual force. Even if one's cultivation was very powerful, one's spiritual force wouldn't necessarily increase. Zhao Hai called this spiritual force the origin of spiritual force. The origin of spiritual force was a force that a person had to rely on. It wouldn't be injured under normal circumstances. However, as long as it suffered a little damage, then even if the person didn't die, they would still become an idiot. Therefore, this was the most fragile force.
The other type of spiritual force was external spiritual force. This type of spiritual force could be cultivated to a certain degree and used. It was like a black magic formation. One could use one's spiritual force to command the undead. One could even distribute their spiritual force to other creatures. This external spiritual force could be regarded as a type of power. It was very mystical and had a lot of uses. However, it was also very fragile. This was because once this spiritual force was injured, then the person would suffer a lot of pain. It might even threaten the origin of spiritual force.
Zhao Hai even now, whether it was cultivating spiritual force or absorbing soulfires from the Space, all of them were external spiritual force. They didn't help the origin of spiritual force at all.
However, Zhao Hai's origin spiritual force had increased recently. This was because of the existence of the biological brain. At the same time, due to the changes in the Space, his spiritual force had increased to a certain degree. However, the increase was very small. It was like adding a drop of water into a bucket. Although it was only a drop, it made Zhao Hai's thinking speed faster. His spiritual force also increased a lot. This was the most powerful aspect of the origin spiritual force.
Just now, after Zhao Hai absorbed the pure energy, his spiritual force increased by a drop. This was really inconceivable!
