Slime Immortal.

Chapter 20: Grey Gravel Crystal? Spirit Stone!

Chen Yu jumped over.

It looks like just a bunch of harmless slimes, but in the eyes of the beetle, the breath of death carried on the hideous shell is irritating its nerves.

With every step closer, they could feel their bodies sinking into an abyss of fear.

Finally, after leaving behind a few corpses, the beetles all evacuated from the bottom of the tree and gave up the territory they had been fighting for for a long time.

The war ended in a disastrous manner.

But it is also a well-deserved victory.

The slime defeated its natural enemies, completely occupied the oak territory, and became the true oak overlord.

But in Chen Yu's opinion, another thing was obviously more worthy of his joy.

"Segash, help collect the beetle corpses."

Chen Yugel's body couldn't help but bubble with joy at the thought of eating delicious beetle meat later.

"Are you going to use these beetles to create new armor?"

Sergash took the beetle, which was bigger than his fist, into his arms, but his eyes fell on the beetle helmet worn by the slime.

"You don't know that."

"These beetles are delicious food."

"food?"

Slime regards its natural enemies as food?

Fortunately, Segash had long been accustomed to the messenger's uniqueness.

What she was more curious about was whether the beetle was really so delicious that the messenger was so looking forward to it.

Monsters like burrowing beetles are as hard as rocks and often live underground. She has almost never come into contact with them, let alone eat them.

"Oh, by the way, please collect the stinger bee corpses for me as well."

Chen Yu jumped to the entrance at the bottom of the tree.

All the beetles inside had left, leaving only some shiny stone lumps that he couldn't understand. They were probably the beetles' treasured treasures.

Now that the beetles have left, it's all his.

Chen Yu swallowed all the stones into his stomach and carried them outside.

"Segash, help me see what these treasures are."

Chen Yu spat the shiny stone, which was still covered in mucus, onto the ground.

"Let me see."

Sergash picked up the stone from the ground and looked at it carefully with his amber eyes.

"what?"

"Are there also gravel crystals here?"

"What is Gray Gravel Crystal?"

"I don't know what the gray crystals you can occasionally find along the riverbank are used for, but the humans on the other side seem to like them very much and often trade them for food."

"Maybe it's some kind of magical material."

Segash's tone was uncertain.

"I'll see."

Chen Yu became interested and swallowed the broken crystal back into his stomach to study it carefully.

Acid corrosion?

No change, harder than ordinary stone, indigestible.

Get closer to the magic organ?

The magic power replenishment phenomenon he imagined did not occur.

So what is the use of this thing?

Is it really a magical material?

Chen Yu was bored as he churned the gravel crystal in his stomach. Suddenly, for a moment, he seemed to see the crystal light up.

Ok?
It doesn't seem to be an illusion.

Wait, could it be?!
Chen Yu's entire gel body shook and bounced a few times, and he seemed very shocked.

What just reacted with the gravel crystal seemed to be his gathered spiritual power.

Continuing to pour spiritual power into it, the gray gravel crystal indeed began to emit a dim light, like a light bulb, illuminating the slime's body.

At that moment, he seemed to transform into light. "Eh, are you returning to Putu's divine kingdom?"

Sergash stared at the glowing slime and couldn't help but pray.

"What a mess! It's this stone that's glowing."

Chen Yu spat out glowing gray gravel crystals, and the stone fell to the ground, slowly emitting bright and gentle light in all directions.

He thought that compared to the gray gravel crystal, the name Lightbulb Stone might be more suitable for it, or it should be called the Ze'arilla version of the spirit stone.

Although it was a little brighter, it actually stored the spiritual power he infused into it.

If this isn’t a spirit stone, then what is it?

Chen Yu seemed to see the door to a new world opening to him. With the spirit stone, some ideas that only existed in his mind had hope of being realized.

What can spiritual stones do in Xu Xuantian?

In addition to being used as currency, it can also be used for cultivation, restoring spiritual power, setting up formations and drawing talismans...

It is equivalent to the immortal version of a battery, and it has so many uses.

He couldn't help but think of the maze map in his hand. With the spirit stone, perhaps...

Chen Yu daydreamed for a while before coming back to his senses.

"Are you saying there are a lot of gravel crystals along the riverbank?"

"Not a lot, just occasionally I can pick it up."

"If you want, I can go back quietly and pick some up."

"Forget it. Corrupted believers are lingering on the riverbank. It's too dangerous to let you go out."

He didn't want to let Sergash be captured by those crazy believers just for a few spirit stones.

Chen Yu swallowed the gray gravel crystal again, dived into the swamp, and returned to the slime nest.

Gray gravel crystals are excellent for storing spiritual energy, but they are too conspicuous, so they can only be buried in the nest and dealt with later.

As for now,

He is hungry!
……

In the camp, the bonfire was burning with firewood, crackling. The beetle was pried open by Sergash with his wolf fangs and roasted in the fire.

The insect meat inside is golden, like plump crab roe, or like oyster meat covered with golden and silver garlic paste. The rich aroma lingers around the camp for a long time.

"Okay, it smells good."

Sergash's nose twitched and he almost drooled.

Chen Yu was concentrating on eating and didn't notice her expression.

With a slurp, he swallowed the beetle paste mixed with the stinging bee meat into the gel.

Beetle cream is rich and fresh, with a unique fungal aroma.

The meat of the stinging bee has a unique flavor. After being roasted, it is like stringy cheese, salty and fragrant.

good to eat!

Chen Yu ate with a grunt, and he couldn't count how much he had eaten. Finally, his body swelled up and became round. Then he lay on the stone, bubbling with joy.

Satisfied.

But I seem to have eaten too much and can't walk.

Forget it, take care of him.

Chen Yu squinted his eyes happily, his body gradually wrapped in warmth, and he fell drowsy.

Seeing this, Sergash, who was standing nearby, also curiously picked up the warm beetle shell, carefully moved closer to the edge of the shell, and tentatively took a small sip.

As the hot, thick, golden paste slides into your mouth, the flavor explodes on the tip of your tongue. First, the extreme sweetness washes over your taste buds. The texture of the paste is incredibly delicate, with a slightly sticky feeling. It melts gently on the tongue, releasing a richer and more complex fragrance.

She could even clearly hear the subtle and seductive "gurgling" sound made by the thick juice being stirred in her mouth.

Well? !

good to eat!

Her amber eyes brightened a little, and her tail swayed, unable to conceal her inner joy.

Are digging beetles such delicious food?
Take another bite of the roasted stinger bee, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

I am so happy that I am speechless...

The campfire was burning and the camp was peaceful and harmonious, but a bloody storm was brewing on the edge of the swamp.
