This rest lasted for over a week. When Lu Chen had fully recovered, he finally received permission from the doctor to begin his exploration.
Lu Chen carried the little beast with one hand and led Little Green, Rhubarb, and Little Furball toward the faint blue light in the distance.
This blue light was being emitted by some special crystals on the walls. There weren't many of these crystals, but the light was very obvious.
"Strange, what are these crystals? They're not spirit stone mines …"
Lu Chen used his Heavenly Observation Eye to discover that these crystals contained a large amount of spiritual power.
Little Beast God, who was already a lot more obedient, suddenly began to dance with joy, as if it was very interested in these crystals.
"Hmm? Little Beast, don't tell me you want to eat these crystals. "Lu Chen was a little perplexed." Little Furball, these things … "
Lu Chen had just turned around when he discovered that Little Furball was biting into the hard rock surrounding the crystals and pulling out an irregular crystal. It wanted to eat it …
When it came to eating, Little Furball was definitely the king … Little Furball held the crystal and gnawed on it, but it soon stopped.
"Squeak squeak squeak …"
Lu Chen laughed heartily. Little Furball didn't like to eat inanimate objects. It preferred to eat living things, whether it was plants or animals, but crystals … were really difficult to swallow …
Little Furball jumped onto Little Beast God's back and gave the half-eaten crystal to Little Beast God.
Little Beast God didn't even think before putting it into its mouth and chewing on it.
After eating a piece, Little Beast God raised its hand again, as if it wanted Little Furball to help it get some more.
It looked like Little Beast God really liked to eat these crystals. Perhaps it would be beneficial to its growth.
There were at least a hundred of these blue crystals on the walls of this several kilometer long passageway. The blue light at the end of the passageway was even more intense, so there might be even more crystals there. It looked like it would be enough for Little Beast God to eat for a while.
However, Lu Chen's most urgent task was to find the spirit vein, so he didn't want to waste too much time here.
"Little Green, help me look after Little Beast God. Little Furball, you take down all these crystals. Give Little Beast God what he can eat, and take away the rest. Remember to protect them. Rhubarb and I will go look for the spirit vein."
"Oh, by the way, check if there are any exits around. The Black Qilin shouldn't have gone up from the astral winds. I don't believe it can withstand it! There should be other exits nearby. "
The group split into two. Hairy Ball and the others took the crystals, while Lu Chen and Rhubarb continued forward.
Not long after, Lu Chen and Rhubarb reached the end of the passage.
Lu Chen realized that the blue light was coming from around the corner.
"There's still so much light even after turning a corner! Don't tell me there's another crystal mine inside! "Lu Chen led Rhubarb into a corner.
After turning the corner, Lu Chen was stunned.
The passageway at the bottom of the abyss was actually quite spacious. It was estimated to be two to three hundred meters wide! However, compared to the spacious area in front of him, that passage was as thin as a toothpick!
The open area in front of him stretched for thousands of meters, and he couldn't see the end of it!
In the center of the area, there was a huge irregular crystal floating in the air. It was dozens of meters tall, like a skyscraper!
The crystal was cut neatly and shaped like a diamond. It emitted a faint blue light, illuminating the entire area like a dream palace.
"Such a big crystal?!" Lu Chen opened his eyes wide. If it was eaten by the little critter, it would be enough for him to eat for several years!
"Woof, woof, woof!" Rhubarb barked a few times.
"Could this be the spiritual source of the spirit vein?" Lu Chen looked at the crystal in astonishment.
Spirit veins were nothing more than areas formed by powerful spiritual sources. There was no place that would form a spirit vein for no reason.
Not to mention the five great spirit veins of the Fifth Heaven!
Lu Chen suddenly understood.
The spirit vein of the Demon Pupil Valley was formed by this huge crystal. Because of the existence of the crystal, over thousands of years, small crystals had formed on the surrounding walls.
Of course, those were not spirit stones, but the "miniature spirit ore" that was thousands of times more valuable than spirit stones!
No wonder the little critter had jumped down so impulsively. To it, the bottom of the abyss was an unimaginable treasure!
"Furball is too stubborn. It doesn't even want to eat the spirit vein … Well, that fellow can increase its strength by eating anything. Naturally, it would like delicious food …"
Since this was the spirit vein, it meant that Lu Chen had already found the spirit vein of the Demon Pupil Valley. Now, what he needed to do was to unlock it.
There was a formation in the plaza, which should be the key to sealing the spirit vein. As long as he could unlock the formation, the spirit vein would be unlocked.
Looking at the spirit vein in front of him, Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
The Black Qilin had left. Even if there were astral winds blocking the outside, if one wanted to, the astral winds might be able to pass through. Furthermore, the Black Qilin must know that there were other exits. In other words, if it did not guard this place, someone would be able to enter.
"When the Black Qilin left, I was heavily injured, but it did not do anything. I think it wanted me to unlock the spirit vein!" Lu Chen said to Rhubarb.
"The Demonic Beast Sovereign has been reborn. One of the Four Heavenly Kings, the Black Qilin, has also left. If my guess is correct, it has already gone to find the Demonic Beast Sovereign."
"Could it be that if I restart the Fifth Layer of Heaven, I will also restart the War of Gods and Demons?"
"If your guess is correct, then what will you choose?" Suddenly, someone asked, giving Lu Chen a fright.
The voice belonged to a man. It was very close, but Lu Chen did not notice a stranger approaching. This was originally an extremely frightening thing.
Lu Chen instinctively jumped away and retreated to Rhubarb's side, vigilantly looking around.
After opening his Heaven's Eye, Lu Chen did not discover anything.
"Who is it? Sneaking around, come out! "Lu Chen said loudly.
"My name is Tai Xing." The voice seemed to be beside Lu Chen. "Of course, if you are willing, you can also call me … Origin God."
Lu Chen reacted for a moment and quickly took out the Origin God Token from his backpack.
The previously dull and old wooden tablet had unknowingly taken on a new look. The words on it were faintly glowing red.
The entire token seemed to be alive.
"It's you?"
"Of course it's me. Every Origin God Token has a trace of my spiritual energy. Otherwise, how could the natives not rely on the Extraction Scroll to cultivate. "
"Solipsistic, ever since A 'Tie gave me to you, I have been following you. And I have discovered that you are indeed an interesting person."
Lu Chen did not comment. "Why did you suddenly appear here?"
"Do you know what this spiritual source is called?"
Lu Chen naturally did not know.
"Origin Crystal!" The voice of the Origin God came from the wooden tablet. "This is the origin stone of the planet under your feet. It gave birth to the mountains and rivers of Tai Xing and gave birth to the natives here. "
"All of us natives are its children …"
Lu Chen opened his eyes wide and continued to listen to the Origin God.
"In the last Great War of Gods and Demons, you foreign cultivators, although it was to protect yourselves, you also fought with the Demonic Beast Army to the death. In the end, you were defeated."
"Heart Refining Academy, Divine Temple, Kunlun Temple, Thousand Calamity Valley, seven great countries, seven great gods of war, tens of millions of cultivators, hundreds of races, could not defeat the Demonic Beast Army and were defeated."
The voice of the Origin God seemed to have lost control and returned to the era of the Gods and Demons.
