Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

With this kind of all-out, fully focused cultivation, another two months quietly passed.

"Shoo, shoo, shoo..."

On this day, numerous figures shot up from the riverbed.

Strictly speaking, it could no longer be called a riverbed, because the river formed by magic elements had, by this moment, almost completely dried up.

Ling Xiao and the others stared at the ground that was not only dry, but even cracked like a tortoise shell, all of them utterly dumbfounded.

"This is... what happened?"

They could hardly imagine it—just four months ago, there had still been a river here that stretched beyond sight, at least a hundred miles wide!!!

Looking again now, where was there any river left?

This was clearly nothing but a river course that had been desolate and dried up for who knew how many years!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh——

Countless gazes turned toward the white-robed figure sitting cross-legged in the center.

Su Han at this moment had already finished cultivating all the light pillars above his head, and the magic elements of every attribute within his body had all reached the peak level of a Seventh-Order Grand Magister!

He was only one step away from breaking through and achieving the realm of an All-Attribute Magic Saint!

However, wanting to cross that one step was harder than ascending to the heavens.

As if sensing Ling Xiao and the others’ gazes, Su Han slightly lifted his head and opened his eyes.

"All mined out?" he asked.

"Mm."

Ye Xiaofei nodded, pointed at that riverbed, and said hesitantly, "Sect Master, you... what did you do?"

"Just cultivated some magic, that’s all." Su Han stood up calmly.

"That’s all?"

Ye Xiaofei clicked her tongue, but didn’t press further.

After all, the man opposite her was called Su Han.

As long as it was something he did, there seemed to be nothing that wasn’t shocking; she really ought to get used to it.

Yeah... get used to it...

"What’s the total reserve of this Elemental Crystal vein?" Su Han asked again.

This was what he wanted to know most.

𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"The total amount is..."

Ling Xiao took a deep breath. "Seventy-seven trillion."

"What?!"

Su Han’s expression froze. "Are you sure you didn’t say it wrong?"

"If what Sect Master means is calculating based on the size of a Demon Crystal Stone, then your subordinate did not misspeak—it really is seventy-seven trillion." Ling Xiao nodded.

"Seventy-seven trillion... seventy-seven trillion!!!" Su Han’s heart nearly exploded.

Seventy-seven trillion—what kind of concept was that?

One piece could be exchanged for a full million pieces of Immortal Crystal.

One piece could be exchanged for a full hundred thousand pieces of Divine Crystal!

One piece could be exchanged for several thousand, even over ten thousand pieces of Holy Crystal!!!

And the reserves of this Elemental Crystal vein had actually reached seventy-seven trillion...

"Just what kind of people are these Three Emperors!!!"

Su Han howled inwardly, "This is the world they created—they can’t possibly be unaware of the existence of this Elemental Crystal vein, yet they just left all these Elemental Crystals sitting here?"

Without the slightest exaggeration, forget seventy-seven trillion; even just taking one hundred million Elemental Crystals into the Holy Domain would instantly make Su Han a renowned tycoon!

Yet such a colossal fortune, in the eyes of these Three Emperors, was so trivial as to not be worth mentioning?

Was it that they simply had no need of it, or was it that they truly didn’t know?

All sorts of thoughts rose up in Su Han’s mind.

He truly found it hard to believe all this; even though he was once the Ancient Demon Dragon Emperor, at this moment he felt as if he were in a dream.

"Actually, it’s not that much."

Seeing Su Han like this, Ling Xiao said, "After all, our Phoenix Sect has so many mages. Add in the thousands-fold time acceleration in the Xumi Ring of the Holy Son... if they cultivate non-stop, the consumption will be extremely fast."

"No, you don’t understand..."

Su Han took a deep breath and said, "You’ve seen Immortal Crystals before—that was those ten pieces the Supreme Honor of the Sect of the Supreme Void took out when he made his move."

"Mm."

Everyone nodded. "They were indeed very powerful. That thing, in a Lower-Class Star Region, is absolutely a Supreme Treasure."

"A Supreme Treasure, huh?"

Su Han shook his head. "If you took this kind of Elemental Crystal to a Middle-Class Star Region, one piece could be exchanged for about a million Immortal Crystals."

Upon hearing this, the whole field fell silent in an instant!

Everyone’s expression turned vacant; mouths hung open as they became petrified on the spot.

Back when the Supreme Honor of the Sect of the Supreme Void acted, they were not ignorant of what kind of power those ten Immortal Crystals unleashed.

Yet a single ordinary-looking Elemental Crystal could be exchanged for a million Immortal Crystals?

This has gotta be messing with me!!!

"Strictly speaking, Immortal Crystals can indeed be regarded as Supreme Treasures in a Lower-Class Star Region, but in a Middle-Class Star Region, they’re just ordinary currency—no different from Spirit Crystals in a Lower-Class Star Region."

Su Han explained, "Mages need Demon Crystal Stones, and this Elemental Crystal, which surpasses Demon Crystal Stones by far—no matter where you take it—is an extremely rare item."

"For immortals, Immortal Crystals are something they don’t lack, but they also have to nurture the mages within their respective forces. Therefore, the price of Elemental Crystals is naturally driven sharply upward."

"Even at the rate of one Elemental Crystal for a million Immortal Crystals, it’s still something that has a price but no market."

After this round of explanation, Ling Xiao and the others immediately understood just how vast a fortune these seventy-seven trillion Elemental Crystals represented!

"Then what about exchanging for Demon Crystal Stones?" Ye Xiaofei couldn’t help but ask.

"If it’s Demon Crystal Stones, then one Elemental Crystal should at least be able to exchange for around a million."

Su Han thought for a moment, then added, "Of course, the effect of a single Elemental Crystal is not equal to that of a million Demon Crystal Stones; but Demon Crystal Stones contain different attributes, while mages themselves possess different attributes. So if you want to find Demon Crystal Stones of a matching attribute, the quantity will definitely be much smaller."

"But Elemental Crystals are different!"

"Any mage can cultivate with Elemental Crystals. Regardless of what your attribute is, how many attributes you possess, what your cultivation base is—as long as you’re a mage, you can devour and refine them!"

"So that’s how it is..."

Everyone suddenly saw the light, and someone said, "No wonder the Sect Master was so shocked when he first saw these Elemental Crystals. Now we understand."

With Su Han’s conversions, everyone now knew that in this trip into Three Emperor Mountain, up to this point, the greatest harvest was not the over two hundred trillion Spirit Crystals, but... these seventy-seven trillion Elemental Crystals!

"The Fortune-bringing Pavilion really lives up to its name!" Su Han said in a low voice.

"I suddenly thought of something and feel an urge to laugh..."

Seeing everyone look over at him, Ling Xiao couldn’t help but say, "We’re the second group to see this river; the first one to see it was the Yin-Yang Blade Saint."

"And that Fortune-bringing Behemoth—it was also the first to see it."

"But it never understood the true meaning of the Fortune-bringing Pavilion. It always thought that the Fortune-bringing Behemoth was alive, that this river must be guarded by something, so it didn’t dare to try anything."

"If it were to find out all this now, would it cough up blood and die?"
