Chapter 3915: Thousand-year tree crystal
Translator: 549690339
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yi was on guard as he jumped down. He realized that something was wrong-this tree hole was unusually deep!
He’d noticed from the outside that the tree was only fifty to sixty meters tall-it was a unique one in the area, but from the way Lin Yi jumped, it felt like he’d jumped at least a hundred meters-a hundred and fifty meters.
If Lin Yi hadn’t stepped on the wall to slow down in time, he’d probably have suffered internal injuries from falling from such a height.
BOOM! Lin Yi landed on the ground with a loud thud, kicking up a cloud of dust. The bottom of the cave was unexpectedly dry.
The visible area was empty. Because the cave walls and the bottom cloth were infested with fluorescent microorganisms like the Half Moon Lake outside, it was like a spirit jade mine inlaid with fluorite. The visibility was quite high.
However, this made Lin Yi even more alert.
Unsurprisingly, he was now at the bottom of the lake, which meant that the giant fir tree did not grow above the lake like the ones they had seen before, but from the bottom of the lake. What they had seen outside was only a small part of the top of the giant fir tree.
There were at least a hundred meters of tree trunks under the water, piercing from the bottom of the lake to the surface. Lin Yi had seen many strange creatures, but he’d never heard of something like this.
It was indeed an ancient tree that had existed since the Half Moon Lake was discovered. It was thousands or even tens of thousands of years old. If it was a spirit beast or something, it would have been a powerful and invincible existence. Unfortunately, it was just a tree.
Lin Yi was about to take a good look inside the empty tree hole when he heard a voice that sent shivers down his spine.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a living person. It’s been three whole years. I’ve Been Lonely for So Long and finally found one. I can finally be happy today.” The voice came from all directions of the tree hole, and it was unclear if it was male or female, but it was laughing evilly.
Lin Yi’s muscles tensed up, but he didn’t show it on his face.”Who are you?”
“Who am I?” The voice paused for a moment, and then seemed to be a little distressed. “I’ve been thinking about this question for a long time, but I can’t figure it out. Forget it, let’s not think about such an annoying question. It’s a rare opportunity, so let’s play a game first. ”
“What game?” Lin Yi’s heart jumped.
“First of all, you’re here to find the thousand-year tree crystal, right?” The voice suddenly asked.
“Not bad.” Lin Yi nodded. The thousand year tree crystal was the core material that Shangguan LAN ‘er was going to use for her forging, and it was also their main purpose here.
According to historical records, a thousand-year tree crystal was an extremely rare heavenly treasure. Only a very small number of tree species with extremely high spiritual Qi could condense it after thousands of years of longevity. It was a priceless treasure that truly gathered the essence of the sun and moon.
Even though there were countless treasures in the back mountain, the places where a thousand-year-old tree crystal could be found were few and far between. The only place in the outer area of the back mountain was the Half Moon Lake, which showed how rare the thousand-year-old tree crystal was.
In fact, after hearing this news, not only for Shangguan LAN ‘er, but also for himself, Lin Yi had to take this risk, because the thousand-year tree crystal had a very rare use, and that was to increase the grade of the weapon during the process of forging!
Ever since he’d come to Sky Class Island, Lin Yi and the other newbies hadn’t used any weapons at all-they’d been in the welcome Pavilion all this time, and it was strictly prohibited. If they did use weapons in battle, a bunch of them would die in the challenge alone.
Secondly, a heaven-grade weapon couldn’t withstand the true Qi of a Foundation establishment cultivator, and it would be destroyed if true Qi was injected into it.
Lin Yi’s steel staff had never been seen before, and he didn’t have any use for it yet, so he didn’t think about upgrading it.
Even after meeting the king of junk in the market, Lin Yi didn’t rush into it. After all, he had to cultivate the heart-devouring exquisite grass to make the foundation-stage golden elixir while dealing with the newbie assessment. He also had to be on guard against the people from southern sky Gate. Lin Yi hadn’t been idle during this time.
But since he’d run into it, Lin Yi wouldn’t let this chance go. No matter what, he’d need a weapon when he fought in the future, and if the steel staff was only sky Class, it wouldn’t be enough. Upgrading it was imperative.
Under normal circumstances, once a weapon was cast, it meant that it had already been shaped, and there was no possibility of changing it, unless it was destroyed and remade. However, in that case, only some main materials could be extracted, such as steel, Dark Iron, and so on. Most of the supplementary materials would be wasted!
However, the thousand year tree crystal was an exception. Not only could it increase the weapon’s grade during casting, but it could also give a weapon that had already been shaped a chance to advance.
It was only once, but it was already very rare.
So, whether it was for Shangguan LAN ‘er or for himself, Lin Yi was determined to get the thousand year tree crystal.
The ghost-like voice sounded again,”If you can win the next game, I can give you a 1000-year tree crystal.”
“Two!” Lin Yi said without even raising his head.
He didn’t know who it was, but from the tone and the words it said, it should be a powerful spirit beast hiding here. It might be The Guardian spirit beast that Lin Yi was talking about, but it couldn’t leave for some reason, and said something like “lonely.”
Since the other party wanted to play the game, it meant that they didn’t have any intention of fighting him to the death. Lin Yi knew that with his current strength, the chances of winning against this mysterious spirit beast were pitifully low. If he agreed to the game, he might have a chance of success.
However, it wasn’t Lin Yi’s style to be led around by the nose so easily. Even if he couldn’t set the rules, he’d have to get it back from somewhere else.
“Two? Hehe, although he’s pitifully weak, he’s really a greedy fellow. ” The voice laughed strangely for a while, then said,”Fine, fine. You’ve been lonely for so long. Take it as your reward. If you win, I’ll give you two thousand-year tree crystals.”
“It’s a deal,” Lin Yi nodded calmly, but he was shocked inside.
He had just casually mentioned it as a simple test. He didn’t think that such a rare heavenly treasure like the thousand-year tree crystal would appear at the same time, but he didn’t expect that the other party would really agree.
