After Chen Rui explained that the channel enchantment was destroyed, the Chief Tauren shook his head regretfully, "I'm very sorry, my friend. According to your power level, I'm probably equivalent to the later stage of Great Demon King. I'm still one step away from reaching the Demon Emperor level. The same is true for Queen Medusa. But generally speaking, the taurens can only reach this level at most. In my inherited memory, among countless generations of excellent taurens, only two ancestors have reached the Demon Emperor level. I basically have no hope in this life. "
The Great Demon King is the tauren's limit? However, there are still two taurens in history who reached the Demon Emperor, so it means that there is still a possibility of breaking through. Then …
"What if I eat the devil fruit?" Chen Rui thought of the last devil fruit in the storage warehouse.
The Chief Tauren was taken aback, "The devil fruit has a huge effect on ordinary Demons. For us, the effect is smaller, but it can also increase the chance of breaking through the limit. However, this fruit is extremely precious …"
"I happen to have one here. Please accept it." Chen Rui took out the devil fruit and handed it over.
The Chief Tauren took the devil fruit in surprise. He looked at it carefully and put it in front of his nose to sniff. He finally confirmed that it was the precious fruit in his inherited memory. He immediately pounded his chest at Chen Rui, "Friend! Tauren Delong! Thank you for your generosity! "
The Chief Tauren's action undoubtedly confirmed Chen Rui as a friend in his personal capacity. Chen Rui also pounded his chest fiercely. He couldn't remember how many times he pounded today. He smiled and said, "Delong, my friend, you're welcome. Actually, I'm mainly doing this for myself. The sooner you reach the Demon Emperor level, the sooner I can return to my home on the ground. "
The taurens were straightforward, but they were not fools. If they were too pretentious, it would destroy the original good impression.
The Chief Tauren really appreciated him even more, "My friend, your frankness is admirable to the taurens. You will always be Delong's friend! "
In fact, even with the devil fruit, Delong's breakthrough to the Demon Emperor level was relatively slim, but at least there was a glimmer of hope. Besides, there were still more than 20 days before the fruits of the devil fruit tree would ripen again. By then, he would throw them at the Chief Tauren one by one. Just like Dodo, he would win by quantity. There would always be a chance to break that damn limit. From the looks of it, they had to prepare for a long period of underground "resistance".
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. The Minotaurs could be considered a "cave". First, he had a basic guarantee, then he would try to find other "caves".
"Chen Rui, you are really amazing. You actually have a Devil Fruit." Chief Tauren Delong was full of praise. "Then, I wonder if you have the ability to stop the Fountain of Life from drying up?"
Chen Rui smiled bitterly to himself. He was not omnipotent and knew nothing about water conservancy.
"The Fountain of Life here was originally four or five times as big as this. Now, only this small pool is left. Every time the demonic flies and earth elementals attack, they will leave some kind of power seed near the Fountain of Life. It is a strange crystal. With this crystal, even if I am fighting with the elite earth elementals, I will not be able to damage the Fountain of Life. However, this so-called protection is actually for another sinister purpose, which is that these crystals will constantly absorb the power of the Fountain of Life. Every time we destroy the crystal, it can always grow again. It can't be completely destroyed. Although there are special guards watching all day, it still can't stop the Fountain of Life from gradually drying up. If this continues, as long as the Fountain of Life dries up, even if the enemy doesn't attack, our tribe will face a disaster of destruction. "
"Crystal?" Chen Rui's mind turned and he asked, "Can I see the Fountain of Life?"
"Of course." Delong pointed to the small pool in front.
Chen Rui walked forward, squatted down, and began to carefully observe the Fountain of Life. The Fountain of Life was similar to ordinary spring water. The water was clear, constantly bubbling, and there seemed to be a trace of aura.
Looking at the soil at the edge, it had dried up a lot. There was a faint yellow light in the soil, and there were many chisel marks. Obviously, the taurens wanted to destroy those crystals, but they couldn't completely destroy them.
Chen Rui tried to reach out his hand and activated aura conversion. He tried it on the water surface, and there was a notification. He then tried it on the soil, and there was the same notification that it could be converted.
It seemed that the Fountain of Life itself was a substance that could be converted into aura. Chen Rui didn't dare to use aura conversion indiscriminately. He asked, "My friends, I can faintly feel the power of that crystal. Can you allow me to try?"
"You can feel the power of the crystal?" Delong looked happy. "Try to see if you can completely destroy them."
Chen Rui pointed his hand at the soil and activated the ability of aura conversion. The aura really began to increase, but the speed was very slow. The yellow light in the soil was also dimming bit by bit, and the surface of the Fountain of Life was also trembling slightly. Several taurens immediately surrounded him.
At this moment, Chen Rui suddenly felt his mind sink, and everything around him disappeared. In the void, a pair of eyes was faintly visible.
Except for the eyes, the rest was blurred, but in contrast, the eyes were unusually clear. The eyes were full of indescribable evil and ferocity. The entire void was filled with gloomy and cold murderous intentions. It went straight into the bone marrow, making people almost unable to breathe.
"Unknown spirit energy found. Do you want to convert it into aura?" The notification in his mind sounded, causing Chen Rui to wake up suddenly.
"Convert!"
The eyes gradually faded with the conversion of the Super System. However, when it was about to disappear, it became clear again. It seemed that the converted power was constantly being replenished. It was actually endless. The growth of aura was also very slow, and the conversion was very difficult.
In the eyes, endless evil was locked tightly on him, and he couldn't get rid of it at all. Chen Rui was taken aback. Even Byron's Demon Emperor-level [Eye of Incubus] was converted by the power of the Super System, and Byron himself suffered a big loss. Now, the power of this "eye" could actually compete with the Super System!
In the evil eyes, the power suddenly increased, and the speed of the system conversion could no longer keep up. Chen Rui felt that his will was tightly bound by something airtight, as if his throat was squeezed tightly. He couldn't resist at all.
The binding was slowly shrinking, and his spirit began to show signs of collapse.
He desperately condensed his willpower to resist this terrifying power. The Dark Will on his finger began to emit a faint light. Chen Rui only felt that the pressure was loosened, and circles of strange fluctuations repelled the binding. He was greatly refreshed.
At this time, his [Aura Conversion] skill had reached the time limit of half an hour, and it automatically stopped. The eyes finally disappeared, and the scene of the Fountain of Life was returned to his eyes.
Chen Rui panted heavily, and his back was soaked in cold sweat, as if he had gone through a tough battle. Although the danger had passed, the terrifying feeling just now was still deeply imprinted in his heart and couldn't be erased. Since he had the Super System, it was the first time he encountered such a situation!
He had to admit that he couldn't destroy these crystals. If it wasn't for the Dark Will, it might be his own will that was destroyed.
The owner of this pair of terrifying eyes was likely to be the final answer to the secret of the entire underground world. The countless yellow light spots in the soil at the edge of the Fountain of Life were still flickering, as if mocking Chen Rui for overestimating himself.
Chen Rui frowned tightly. In any case, he must stop the Fountain of Life from drying up. Otherwise, the tauren tribe wouldn't be able to hold on at all, and he and Athena wouldn't be able to wait for the day when the Chief Tauren became the Demon Emperor.
If the tauren's Fountain of Life completely dried up, the only way was to share the medusa's Fountain of Life. Although the two sides were temporary allies, there were too many monks and not enough gruel. Medusa might not agree. At that time, it would also cause internal strife or the collapse of the alliance, and they would be defeated by the demonic flies and the earth elementals respectively.
Chen Rui looked at the crystal clear pool, and an idea flashed in his mind. He reached out his hand again. This time, he didn't use [Aura Conversion], but [Galaxy Garden]!
Since he couldn't solve these crystals with evil seeds, he would try to "solve" the Fountain of Life.
"Unknown water source. Transplant requires 50000 auras. Do you want to transplant?"
The Galaxy Garden can actually transplant water!
Chen Rui resisted the excitement in his heart and looked up at the Chief Tauren.
Delong saw his fatigue and knew that he must have consumed a lot of strength just now. He said, "It's okay. We have also tried many methods and failed. Thank you for your efforts, friend."
"Maybe there is another way." Chen Rui shook his head. "Delong, let me ask you something first. Is the tauren tribe willing to use all means to stop the Fountain of Life from drying up?"
Delong looked at the people beside him who showed a determined look and nodded without hesitation, "Even if we use our lives as sacrifices."
"Understood." Chen Rui opened his hand and aimed at the Fountain of Life. A strange mist appeared on his hand and gradually enveloped the entire Fountain of Life. Then, the mist gradually converged. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Fountain of Life disappeared.
Not only the spring water, but even the mouth of the spring was gone, leaving only a bare pit. Countless pale yellow crystal lights flashed in the soil. This time, the crystal lights seemed a little helpless.
In the Galaxy Garden, there was a small pool.
The prompt was: Unknown aura water source. Quantity: 200 units. Recovery: 10 units per hour. Current state: 200/200.
The eyes of the surrounding taurens widened in an instant. Chen Rui stood up, his eyes flashing with excitement. Before Delong could ask, a large basin suddenly appeared in Chen Rui's hands. The basin was instantly filled with water, and he handed the basin to the Chief Tauren.
The aura water source showed 199/200. This large basin of water was almost equivalent to 1 unit. Even if the Fountain of Life was completely emptied, it would be restored to its original state in less than a day.
Delong took the basin and looked at it carefully. His eyes widened even more, and he howled in surprise, "It's really the Fountain of Life!"
The taurens on the side gathered around and looked at each other in disbelief.
Chen Rui smiled. This time, he was really rescued from a desperate situation. He could actually move the Fountain of Life into the Galaxy Garden. The 50,000 "transplant fee" was five times more expensive than collecting plants, but it was definitely worth it.
