However, the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast continued to stare at Jianchen as if it was still hungry after devouring the ten thousand low grade divine crystals.
Jianchen gently flicked the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast's tiny head and scolded with a smile, "You sure aren't holding back. Aren't you afraid of bursting from eating too much?"
The Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast rubbed itself against Jianchen's cheeks as hard as it could as it stared at Jianchen pitifully. Clearly, it wanted a few more divine crystals from Jianchen.
"Jianchen, if I've seen correctly, it should be a divine beast. Every single divine beast is blessed by the heavens. Their talent is extremely terrifying. Both their rate of growth and battle prowess are extremely shocking. They can even be described as heaven-defying. Only the prodigies of large sects can contend against them at the same cultivation level. As a matter of fact, many of them are nowhere near their opponent. If you nurture it well, this divine beast will be an extremely powerful helper in the future, "Fairy Haoyue said.
"It's a pity that this divine beast refuses to follow me, or I definitely would have nurtured it regardless of the cost." Jianchen gently smiled. At the same time, he glanced at the crystal coffin nearby. He still felt rather puzzled. He had no idea why the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast would follow Caia of its own accord. Moreover, it had remained by Caia's side while he was unconscious, guarding him at all times.
Although the Winged Tiger, who was also a divine beast, had followed him, the situation was completely different. Before the Winged Tiger had even opened its eyes, Rum Ginisto had given it to him. It had always accompanied him as he grew up, going through trials after trials of life and death. Without any exaggeration, he had single-handedly raised the Winged Tiger, so their relationship was naturally extremely deep. However, Jianchen refused to believe that Caia and the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast had gone through the same thing as the Winged Tiger.
"Everyone has their own opportunities. Perhaps this is Caia's opportunity." Jianchen thought to himself. This was the only way he could explain it.
"You have to take over that high grade divine crystal mine as soon as possible. I urgently need the origin energy there to reconstruct my body. Once I reconstruct a perfect body, I'll be able to help you deal with some of your problems." Fairy Haoyue continued. She needed an extremely tremendous amount of origin energy to reconstruct her perfect body. Although Jianchen had obtained over a million low grade divine crystals, it was nowhere close to what she needed.
"I won't give up on that mine either, because I urgently need the high grade divine crystals there to cultivate." Jianchen said. He gave the Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast another ten thousand low grade divine crystals before leaving the Bright Moon Divine Hall.
The Seven-colored Heaven-devouring Beast devoured twenty thousand low grade divine crystals in a row. Only then did it show a sliver of satisfaction. It lay on the crystal coffin and began to absorb the origin energy within. Its presence gradually strengthened as it absorbed the divine crystals. Its rate of absorption shocked everyone in the Bright Moon Divine Hall.
Jianchen returned to the seventh hall of the Mo clan and entered seclusion in another secret room. He had yet to find enough divine crystals to increase his Chaotic Body. As long as he did not break through, his strength would not increase at all even if he absorbed all the divine crystals on hand. It would only make his chaotic neidan a little larger at most.
If that was the case, he would be better off leaving all the divine crystals to Shen Jian. That way, they could increase their strength as much as possible.
Jianchen sat in the secret room. Close to ten thousand low grade divine crystals were piled up beside him.
"There's a crack in my chaotic neidan. Because of the crack, I can only use eighty percent of my strength. However, repairing the crack isn't difficult. I just need enough energy to make my chaotic neidan complete," Jian Chen thought. Immediately, he grabbed a handful of low grade divine crystals and began absorbing the origin energy within to make his chaotic neidan complete. In the past, he did not possess any divine crystals. If he relied on absorbing the origin energy of the world to slowly recover, it would take an extremely long time. As a result, his chaotic neidan had never been repaired. Only after obtaining a large number of divine crystals from the mines of the Lu family did he finally have the opportunity to complete his chaotic neidan.
As Jianchen repaired his chaotic neidan, the elders of the Lu family who had gone out to hunt down the prisoners all returned. At this moment, the patriarch of the Lu family and the eight elders were gathered in a hall. They were all stern, and even the hall was enveloped by a powerful formation to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on their conversation. They were extremely cautious.
"Patriarch, according to our calculations, apart from the miner who was taken away by the mysterious Celestial Realm expert, the rest of the miners and the guards who escaped have all been killed. Even the guards who are still loyal to our Lu Clan have been quarantined," a Godhood elder said to the patriarch of the Lu Clan.
The patriarch of the Lu family sat at the head of the table in worry. He sighed gently, "The appearance of high grade divine crystals in the Dark Cloud Mountains should have been something worth celebrating. To our Lu family, it's even more significant. I never thought that something like this would happen at such a crucial moment. Sigh, what I worry about the most right now is whether or not there are spies among the guards from other organisations. Have those spies leaked the news of the high grade divine crystals beforehand? If they do, our Lu family won't be able to keep this mine. As for the mysterious God, I'm not worried about him leaking the news of the high grade divine crystals because it won't benefit him at all. "
"Family Head, have you found out the identity of that mysterious expert?" A God Realm Elder asked.
The patriarch of the Lu family shook his head, "Apart from knowing that he has comprehended the Laws of the Sword, there's very little information about him. The only God who has comprehended the Laws of the Sword in our region is the one from the Atomos Sword sect. However, when the God who attacked our mine struck, snow fell from the sky. From this alone, it doesn't seem like the person from the Atomos Sword sect. Of course, we can't eliminate the possibility that the person from the Atomos Sword sect is purposefully tricking us. "
"It's said that when the mysterious expert left, he said that our Lu family would be destroyed soon. Hmph, even if the Dark Cloud Mountains really are a high grade divine crystal mine, we'll just have to give it up. I believe those powerful clans won't make things difficult for us. It's obvious that the mysterious expert probably has grievances with our Lu family," said a red-robed old man.
The patriarch of the Lu family shook his head, "That's even more impossible. Our Lu family has never provoked a God, nor have we offended clans and organisations with Gods. Apart from Lu Fei's betrayal and the Mo clan, I really can't think of any other organisation that our Lu family has grievances with …" Suddenly, the patriarch of the Lu family paused, and his eyes shone brightly. He said sternly, "Mo clan, Mo clan. How did I forget about you? Doesn't the mysterious expert from the Mo clan just happen to possess strength no weaker than a God, and he just happens to comprehend the Laws of the Sword? Even the ancestor suffered greatly at his hands. "
The expressions of the eight other elders changed slightly. One of them asked, "Is it the Mo clan?"
The patriarch of the Lu family snorted coldly.
He said, "It's extremely likely to be the Mo clan. In our region, there's only the mysterious expert from the Mo clan who has comprehended the Laws of the Sword aside from the person from the Atomos Sword sect. Although it's different from what the ancestor described, it's still possible to disguise it through certain methods."
"By the way, I suddenly remembered that in the Maple Leaf Pavilion of Maple Leaf City, there is a medium grade saint weapon called the Flying Snow Sword. The Flying Snow Sword was forged by Grand Elder Xin Nong of the county city. It is said that this sword can cause snow to fall in battle," said a God Realm elder.
The patriarch of the Lu family looked at the elder who had spoken and said, "Elder Yun, please make a trip to Maple Leaf City immediately and check whether the Flying Snow sword has been sold or not and whether the person who bought it is the mysterious expert from the Mo clan."
"Alright, I'll go right away." Elder Yun immediately stood up and left.
