After absorbing that guy's divine sense, Luo Fan was still not satisfied and longed for the Demon Abyss even more.
After dealing with the unidentifiable beast, its magic core indeed bore inscriptions indicating water-based crystallization. The surrounding water seemed to be in a special state, likely its meticulously crafted lair, but it hadn't given the beast a chance to react.
Only villains like to ramble on and on; how come he's a perfectly good guy who does all the bad things? It's always that Empty Thief.
Luo Fan continued deeper, and there he found another special magic circle, quite different from those used by humans. When the main body died, the magic circle ceased to function.
He recorded the formation, searched carefully again, and even found a spatial passage. This guy really knows what he's doing: if you can't win, run!
This is a sealed inscription!
Looking at a special transparent stone in my hand, I noticed some unique patterns inside, somewhat like the patterns on that carving knife, but fuller.
The stone itself could block some detection; if Luo Fan hadn't been careful, he might have mistaken it for ordinary crystal. That giant snake actually liked shiny things—what a strange creature!
Could this be a human inscription? I never expected to encounter it here. It also appears to be of the dark element.
After destroying the magic circle and finding nothing better, Luo Fan left the water and saw the girls slowly approaching.
If this inscription is indeed from a human, then Ellie is truly blessed. The only question is whether she can handle it. Perhaps we should wait for news from the old witch; if she can replicate this thing, she'll be incredibly lucky.
At that time, those dark magicians will have to kneel before her and respectfully call her "Old Buddha"!
Furthermore, there are definitely human gods in this world, at least one dark-elemental being.
"Did you kill all of these?" Seeing the corpses scattered on the ground and smelling a foul stench, Caitlin decisively stopped in her tracks.
"Of course, isn't that amazing!" Luo Fan was extremely excited. Since Ai Li had the chance to reach that level, the other girls should have the same opportunity. If all else failed, he could just venture into the Demon Realm and take a look around.
Once I successfully transform into human form and break through the demonic tribulation, the small spatial barrier will be a piece of cake.
Luo Fan was still lost in his fantasies when Ai Li, standing to the side, became curious, wondering why Luo Fan was so excited and lost in thought. What level had he broken through to that had made him the way he was now?
He's been trying to get into the Demon Realm, but he's always wanted to go to the Demon Abyss. How did it turn into the Demon Realm? And what's with this "Old Buddha"?
"Wow, wow~ What's going on? Is there something wrong with this pool?" Caitlin replied perfunctorily. It was the first time she had noticed that Luo Fan's expression at this moment gave the impression of constipation.
"Now there's no problem, but why hasn't the reward arrived yet?" As his thoughts returned, he noticed a special life force spreading across the pool and then rushing into the water.
The already polluted water is rapidly changing under the influence of this odor, and the scattered pollutants are slowly dissolving.
Soon, Luo Fan heard a voice of gratitude again, and a bright green life crystal formed around him, then rushed into his body.
"Damn, what on earth dares to get inside me?"
"Greetings, Your Majesty King Slime. I am the spirit of the Tree of Life. Thank you for removing this malignant tumor from my body. This Life Crystal is the essence of the Fountain of Life and cannot linger in the outside world. I hope you will accept my gift of gratitude."
So it was a tree spirit. Could it be that my presence here was guided by it? But being able to communicate normally isn't a bad thing, after all, it is the master of this place.
But why was it being so polite? Luo Fan was somewhat flattered.
"No need to be polite, I have a grudge against these guys too." After saying that, Luo Fan began to examine the life crystal. Sure enough, it only had a surging life aura and no wood element feeling.
This stuff is even purer than the Fountain of Life. Can it replace the Fountain of Life? Or would the dosage be too strong?
"I must thank Your Majesty. But could you help me resolve any other hidden dangers? I can offer you all sorts of conveniences. This crystallization of life is my greatest token of sincerity."
"Speaking of which, if one were to take human form, would the Crystallization of Life be more useful, or the Fountain of Life?" Having encountered such an old codger, Luo Fan didn't want to miss the opportunity to ask him.
"Life crystals dissolved in pure water spirit liquid become the Fountain of Life. If Your Majesty wishes to break through the demonic tribulation and take human form, life crystals are still better." The tree spirit understood the meaning behind the words and patiently explained.
Transformation is the ultimate goal pursued by all highly intelligent magical beasts, so it wasn't surprised that the slime asked this question. Speaking of which, the fire spirit in front of it was quite well-developed, much stronger than the wood spirit.
"I see, thank you. I can help you resolve this problem, but you'll need to answer some of my questions, okay?"
"No problem~" the tree spirit answered readily. It didn't know how long it had been living in this space. It was rare to encounter such a powerful and friendly being. It would be nice to chat with it.
This slime is clearly low-level, but its spiritual power is very strong; it even possesses the essence of time. If a real fight were to break out, its entire space probably wouldn't be able to withstand it, especially since the Great King also knows spatial magic.
Having mastered the existence of time and space, could it be that some legendary figure has been reborn? However, possessing both time and space, I don't recall ever hearing of such a thing before.
The tree spirit was sorting through its memories and also had to find time to drive away the unruly Void-Eating Beasts. It simply didn't have the energy to deal with that incredibly slippery creature underwater.
"Is that three-tailed spirit fox your pet?" Luo Fan thought for a moment and decided to start with the simplest question.
"Yes, it's a very fragile little thing, that little fox girl is perfect for it."
"You will also adopt these special pets?"
"I just rescued some of them as a matter of course. Once they grow up and encounter a suitable summon, I will send them away. That's how those elves were born."
Upon hearing this explanation, Luo Fan immediately understood the origin of the elves. No wonder there had always been a tradition belonging to the elves in the world; it turned out that they were the ones who created it.
"Alright, I still have to drive away a big guy. I'll leave the rest to Your Majesty." With that, its voice gradually faded away.
Does this guy have other enemies? Even more powerful Void Devouring Beasts?
"Brother Fan, who were you talking to just now?" Little Ling'er asked.
"The master here will guide us to fight monsters," Luo Fan explained, noticing that Huo Yu seemed to have sensed something as well, desperately trying to recall its past.
"Master?" Caitlin and Freya both came closer, sensing that Luo Fan's body seemed to be filled with vigorous life energy.
“Yes, the spirit of the Tree of Life.” Luo Fan answered while examining the life crystal, which seemed to be disintegrating.
The demonic core within his body began to stir, calling upon his other clones.
Is this thing going to be absorbed by itself?
Just as Luo Fan was about to put it away, the crystal suddenly disintegrated into dust. Under his guidance, the other clones also rushed out and merged, and a complete version of Luo Fan reappeared in front of the girls.
Fountain of life, lead to success!
