Chapter 98 - -Soul Crystal

Thinking about that little white rabbit in the fortress, eating well, drinking well, just like a shut-in loser.

His heart became even more unbalanced!

Even those senators found the matter boring, so they sent him, a spellbeast, to act as a guardian here and bring them over.

"Sigh, at this point, let’s just treat it as entertainment. I wonder if Velen can make it back tomorrow?"

Hael asked curiously. Triad Sanctum was an extremely long distance from here.

"If Velen said he’s participating in this Star Hunt, then he will definitely come. When the time comes, we won’t even bother to make a move. Let’s just find a quiet place and keep drinking our potions. I still have tens of thousands of them!"

Alan thought for a moment and said.

Since Velen said he would come, no matter how far the distance, he would definitely arrive.

The other prodigies all nodded upon hearing this. Compared to this Star Hunt, they felt that consuming potions was far more important.

"Sigh! When will Master return? The fortress is just too boring!"

Ironback Centipede shook his head and sighed.

At least the others had daily training to pass the time, but he truly had nothing to do.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.

Velen, still in a deep sleep, felt someone pushing his body. He slowly opened his eyes.

"Master! It’s time to depart!"

Standing beside Velen, Victor No.1 spoke respectfully.

"Oh, it’s already the second day?"

Velen rubbed his eyes and looked at Victor No.1. "Alright then, take me into the secret realm!"

Victor No.1 nodded, raised his long sword, and slashed through the air. Instantly, a rift in space appeared, forming a bizarre and colorful passage.

"Master, through this passage, you can enter the hunting planet."

Velen nodded, then stepped into the spatial passage.

Watching Velen’s departing figure, Victor No.1 narrowed his eyes, sensing something.

"This planet doesn’t seem simple. There’s a rather strong presence here, full of resentment. It could pose a danger to Master. Perhaps I should make some preparations in advance!"

Victor No.1 murmured to himself.

Ever since Velen granted him a name, it was as if his thoughts had been unlocked.

Although Velen hadn’t encountered any dangers yet, this planet still harbored hidden threats. This was undoubtedly a great opportunity!

If he seized it, he could definitely deepen his bond with Master!

After stepping into the spatial passage, Velen’s attention immediately shifted to his system interface.

"A special item has refreshed. I actually slept straight through the night."

Velen stretched lazily, then curiously looked at today’s special item.

200 Soul Crystals.

Soul Crystals provided immense benefits to alchemists, puppeteers, vengeful spirits, and evil awakeners, as they contained vast amounts of pure soul energy.

Seeing the effects of the Soul Crystals, Velen immediately understood.

Soul energy was filled with infinite mysteries, and even many soul masters dedicated to its study couldn’t fully grasp its intricacies.

Soul-based attacks were nearly impossible to defend against, eerie and unpredictable.

This thing actually contained a massive amount of pure soul energy!

It was an incredibly rare treasure.

"Soul energy can not only erupt in an instant to form terrifying soul storms, but it can also be gradually released to restore consumed soul energy. It’s extremely beneficial to certain special classes like alchemists."

At this moment, the system added another explanation.

Velen nodded.

As expected, it was just as he had thought. This item was immensely useful for soul-based classes and could even counter them.

"Fate’s Trojan, where are most of the resources on this planet located?"

The main reason he was participating in this Star Hunt was to complete his system mission, so he naturally needed to prepare in advance.

Fate’s Trojan quickly provided an answer, "They are mainly concentrated in one place."

Hearing this, Velen was momentarily stunned. Good grief, Element Academy’s goal in this event was indeed not simple!

But this was good too—he wouldn’t need to scour the planet searching for resources.

"Where exactly are they concentrated?" Velen continued asking.

"Deep within the cave ahead of you," Fate’s Trojan replied.

Velen narrowed his eyes.

Being teleported here was obviously no coincidence. Victor No.1 must have sensed something and prepared in advance.

"Victor No.1… looks like I underestimated these prospective guards…"

Velen murmured to himself, growing even more satisfied with Victor No.1.

"If everything is inside this cave, then perfect!"

Without hesitation, Velen dashed straight into the pitch-black cave.

He had barely entered when suddenly, a system prompt echoed in his ears.

"Detecting a special force attempting to erode the host’s soul…"

Velen halted his steps.

So, Element Academy gathering all the resources here wasn’t just about hoarding them for themselves.

"The erosion is intensifying. Purification function activated!"

As Velen was contemplating whether to continue deeper, the system’s voice sounded again.

This immediately reminded him of how, previously, when Kelsey attempted to peer into his fate, it also triggered the system, resulting in severe injuries for Kelsey instead.

His system was so domineering that it surpassed both fate and the heavens.

Thinking of this, Velen chuckled, then quickly ventured deeper into the cave.

With the system protecting him, any force attempting to erode his soul was nothing more than a pathetic clown.

It might even trigger new system functions, which made him look forward to it!

As Velen delved deeper, he gradually realized that this seemingly narrow cave entrance seemed to lead directly to the planet’s core.

The further he went, the darker and more eerie it became!

At the same time, deep within the hollow core of the planet, a disheveled old man in black sat cross-legged like a beggar.

In front of him, countless strands of soul energy swirled like mist.

"Excellent!"

"Excellent!"

"As long as I refine all these resources, combined with the foundation I’ve accumulated over centuries, I’ll be able to condense two hundred Soul Crystals. Then, breaking free from this seal will be effortless!"

Thinking about how he would soon escape this imprisonment, gaining immense power and breaking through to a higher realm, the black-robed old man couldn’t help but laugh maniacally.

His voice was hoarse and ear-piercing, echoing throughout the hollow core.

But before his laughter could spread far, a puzzled voice suddenly rang out from the distance.

"Why is there someone down here in the planet’s core?"

Hearing this voice, the black-robed old man’s pupils shrank suddenly.

This was his sealed domain!

For centuries, he had been the only one here.

How could there suddenly be someone else?

Whipping his head toward the voice, he saw a handsome young man walking over.

How did this kid get in?

The old man rubbed his eyes forcefully, unable to believe what he was seeing.

The sealing formation imprisoning him was terrifyingly powerful.

He couldn’t escape, and no one else could enter.

Even approaching it would trigger its attacks.

So how did this young man—who looked so weak—find this place and pass through the formation?

He himself had endured nine waves of thunder tides and was on the verge of ascending to the Upper Plane Universe as a top-tier powerhouse.

If not for this seal forcibly suppressing him, he could have entered the Upper Plane Universe long ago!

Even with his strength, he couldn’t break the formation, only slowly wear it down over time.

Yet this low-level kid had waltzed in effortlessly?

"Who are you? How did you get here?"

Unable to comprehend, the black-robed old man asked grimly.

Velen glanced at him indifferently. "I just walked in."

"Walked in? Do you take me for a fool?" The old man’s face darkened. "The seal—how did you bypass it?"

Velen had no idea what he was talking about. He hadn’t encountered any so-called seal at all.

Seeing the confusion on Velen’s face, the old man’s heart began to race.

The seal must have completely faded away over time!

It had to be!

With that realization, he flashed toward the passage Velen had entered from and shouted ecstatically:

"Freedom! I’m finally free!"
