106: Genocide! Source Crystal?

After Lin Chen entered the dream and crossed over, he once again arrived in the Central Region through the Human Federation base's teleportation gate.

More than an hour had passed since the mysterious expert from the Nether Spirit Clan had projected his mental will.

To be safe, Lin Chen waited another four hours before entering the core catacomb of the Nether Spirit Clan.

Upon entering, he immediately released his Mental Energy and carefully sensed his surroundings.

"Sure enough, that mysterious expert isn't here!"

Lin Chen was delighted and instantly teleported to the black altar.

"You're not dead!"

"How is this possible!"

Hun Wu Shang and the others' terrified voices came from deep within the catacomb.

Lin Chen's eyes were indifferent, and he unleashed a single slash.

"No..."

Seeing Lin Chen intending to destroy the altar, Hun Wu Shang's expression immediately became anxious.

Boom—

The black altar shattered!

The projection of mental will from an ultra-long distance required a medium coordinate, so Lin Chen destroyed the black altar at the first opportunity.

The three God-level Spiritual Mind Master ancestors of the Nether Spirit Clan appeared before Lin Chen.

They looked at Lin Chen, their faces showing apprehension.

"Lin Chen, weren't you already killed by an elder of our Nether Spirit Clan's ancestral land? How could you still appear here!"

"Are you human or ghost!"

Their answer was a terrifying blade light!

Eternal Tribulation Slash!

"I am your ancestor!"

Boom—

The three Nether Spirit Clan ancestors' expressions were filled with despair and disbelief.

They struggled to resist this slash, but its power was too terrifying!

The blade light swept across, and the three Nether Spirit Clan ancestors turned into dust.

At this moment, the entire core area of the Nether Spirit Clan was in complete chaos.

Countless Nether Spirit Clan members fled in panic, and some weaker ones were even so scared that they prostrated themselves on the ground.

Seeing this, Lin Chen raised his hand and clenched it, and a giant spatial-temporal cage appeared, directly enveloping the entire core area of the Nether Spirit Clan.

This core area had at least a million Nether Spirit Clan members!

Lin Chen's killing intent was sky-high; he would show no mercy to these alien races.

Within the time cage, space-time was in disarray, with terrifying spatial blades appearing from time to time. In some areas, the flow of time accelerated tens of thousands of times, and the Nether Spirit Clan members who entered those areas instantly turned into skeletons!

Lin Chen continuously swung his blade, specifically targeting the Saint-level Spiritual Mind Masters.

An hour later.

All million clan members in the Nether Spirit Clan's core area were annihilated!

The spatial-temporal cage dissipated, and Lin Chen's mood was as calm as an ancient well, as if he had done something very ordinary.

"I wonder what good things are in the Nether Spirit Clan's ancestral land."

Lin Chen began to search carefully.

"I should have soul-searched them just now. This place is so big, and I don't know where all the good stuff is."

After a long while.

Lin Chen discovered a treasure vault of the Nether Spirit Clan!

Inside the vault, battle armor, spirit treasures, life cores, exotic fruits, and various precious materials were piled up in dazzling array.

Lin Chen was very interested in the life cores and counted them.

Over ten million first and second-tier life cores!

5.63 million third-tier life cores!

1,969 fourth-tier life cores!

32 fifth-tier life cores!

Lin Chen's eyes widened; these life cores must have been accumulated by the Nether Spirit Clan over generations!

Otherwise, if they were to slaughter alien beasts on such a large scale, there would be sixth-tier alien beasts, and these sixth-tier alien beasts would not allow such a thing to happen!

Lin Chen roughly calculated that these life cores combined amounted to over ten trillion energy points!

Lin Chen planned to absorb the life cores himself, and he put the remaining resources into a separate spatial ring to give to Bai Hong later.

Lin Chen continued his exploration.

An hour later.

Lin Chen arrived at a hidden place, the most concentrated area of YinSha energy in the entire catacomb.

Suddenly!

A Mental Energy array appeared, and over a dozen Mental Energy attacks assailed Lin Chen.

These dozen-plus Mental Energy attacks would be unbearable for anyone below the Martial God level!

Lin Chen frowned slightly, waved his hand casually, and the dozen-plus Mental Energy attacks were annihilated, and the array was also destroyed.

Then Lin Chen strode forward.

"This is... an entrance to a secret realm!"

At the entrance to the secret realm, there was a layer of world membrane blocking the way.

Lin Chen directly cleaved open the world membrane with a single slash and quickly slipped inside.

"This should be the mental world of a God-level Spiritual Mind Master from the Nether Spirit Clan's history."

Because Lin Chen did not detect the aura of the Source Great Dao.

This mental world was only 50,000 kilometers in diameter, much smaller than a Martial God's Inner World.

Lin Chen maintained his Mental Energy release and quickly searched the secret realm.

Two hours later.

Lin Chen arrived at the World Core.

"This is...!"

In the independent space of the World Core, countless precious materials were piled up, such as spatial stones and spatial essence, all in heaps.

There were also many materials Lin Chen didn't recognize.

"What are these?"

Lin Chen discovered a small mountain of blue crystals. He curiously picked one up to examine it.

"Such dense energy!"

Lin Chen sensed it and found it had one fifty-thousandth the energy of a Dao Fruit.

That's about 100 million energy points!

One must know that a fifth-tier alien beast life core only has 500 million to 1 billion energy!

Dao Fruits are formed by Venerable Realm experts at an extremely high cost, condensing their own Law comprehension.

Often, a Venerable can only condense one Dao Fruit every four or five years.

These Dao Fruits primarily contain Law fragments, are extremely valuable in the Endless Realm, and can allow one to quickly comprehend the corresponding Laws.

Dao Fruits are only affordable to major powers.

Lin Chen immediately took out the colorful crystal and summoned Little Zi.

"Little Zi, what are these blue crystals?"

Little Zi, in her maiden form, floated in the air, very agile. She glanced at the blue crystals, blinked, and said with a smile:

"Master, these are source crystals, the common currency of the Endless Realm!"

source crystals? Common currency?

"Master, these source crystals are formed in the Endless Realm, condensed over countless years by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and originate from source crystal veins."

"source crystal veins are extremely rare and are usually controlled by major powers."

"source crystals contain rich Source Power, and Source Power can mobilize the Law Power of the Endless Realm!"

Source Power?

Lin Chen was puzzled again.

Could it be that True Essence cannot mobilize Law Power?

"Little Zi, what is the difference between Source Power and True Essence?"

Upon hearing this, Little Zi drew a line in the void in front, and a virtual projection appeared, showing a martial artist's Inner World.

"The Laws mastered below the Source Beginning Realm are extremely minuscule, so they can only be mobilized by the True Essence within the body."

"However, starting from the Source Beginning Realm, the comprehension of Laws undergoes a qualitative leap. At that time, the energy level of True Essence is too weak to drive Law Power at all."

"In the Source Beginning Realm, the True Essence within the body will transform into Source Power, and the energy level of Source Power is a thousand times that of True Essence!"

"At that time, one can mobilize Law Power using the Source Power within the body."

"Even so, the Source Power within the body is consumed very quickly. At this point, one can use source crystals to quickly replenish the consumed energy!"

Lin Chen nodded slightly upon hearing this, falling into contemplation.

He had never felt his True Essence running out.

Because his Inner World was a ninth-grade Inner World, and his True Essence reserves were a hundred times that of an ordinary person!

When he breaks through to the Source Beginning Realm, his Source Power reserves are estimated to be equally terrifying... Lin Chen counted the number of these source crystals.

Over 80,000 pieces!

Converted into energy points, that's about 80 trillion!

He previously thought that 50 trillion energy points would take a long time to accumulate, but in such a short time, Lin Chen had already obtained over 40 trillion!

The Chaos Great Dao is nearing completion.

Now Lin Chen is incredibly eager for the changes after the system upgrades again!
