This isn't a souls-like game at all.

Can be used directly as a shield.

Forest tortoises are ancient creatures that live for thousands of years.

It is worshipped as a sacred symbol of longevity.

After being crystallized due to magic erosion.

Its dusty symbolic nature grants it eternal life.

Exclusive combat skill: Crystal Shell Guardian.

Skill consumption: 20.

Attribute correction: Intelligence A, Mystic A.

The tortoise shell, deeply corroded by the monster's magic, possesses a unique magical power.

A special combat skill that can form special crystalline armor on the body surface.

While greatly increasing the magic and physical attribute damage reduction rate.

Movement will also be restricted.

"Eternal life?"

Ye Yiyi was stunned and suddenly couldn't react.

Doesn't this mean that as long as this crystal turtle doesn't encounter any accidents, it can live until the heat death of the universe?

"This is a bit outrageous..."

After turning the tortoise shell over and over and examining it carefully, he suddenly found a white crystal attached to the shell on the concave side of the shell.

"What is this thing? Is it integrated with the shield?"

He reached out to touch it, but accidentally picked the crystal off.

"Uh, it doesn't seem to be integrated... Hey, there's a light curtain."

He was a little surprised. After the crystal turtle dissipated, it actually gave him an item?

So he looked at the light curtain curiously.

【The Stone of Ten Longevity】

Item Description: Extremely active, a magical crystal that stores lifespan.

One of the materials used to craft items.

Direct use can remove the abnormal state of "age".

Or extend your life by ten years.

A special magical crystal left over from eternal life.

It is said that this is also the essence of one of the sacred symbols sealed by crystal.

"What the hell?!"

After reading the item description, Ye Yiyi was really dumbfounded this time.

"So crystallization is so powerful? It can even seal something as insubstantial as lifespan?"

That’s a full ten years of life!!

We are not gods, who doesn’t want to live a few more years?

“This stone is of great significance!!”

Ye Yiyi looked around vigilantly and quickly put the stone away.

If those noble kings on the border knew about this kind of thing, they would probably beat their brains out!

But then again, he had clearly sublimated all the other crystals using his sublimation magic, so why was there only this single piece left?

"And what does the giant beast magic power mentioned in the combat skill description refer to?"

He calmed his mind and silently felt the magic around him.

Not long after, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked strangely at the place where the crystal turtle emerged from the ground not far away.

"There seems to be something underneath?"

Chapter 496 [Stars Yilin I Qisi Dirty Lie Si Lie VIII Reimu's Stillborn Child] and [Prophecy Sky Shell]

As the giant puppet hand made of mud dug up the ground, the strange object buried deep underground and appearing in Ye Yiyi's perception also revealed its true form.

"Crystallization again?"

Ye Yiyi frowned slightly, thinking that it was indeed worthy of being called the Forest of Ten Thousand Stone Crystals, as everything was related to crystals.

He carefully examined the yellow egg-shaped crystal in the palm of the puppet's hand and found that the crystal was as big as a human head, with a round and smooth appearance and a crystal clear interior. Through the surface of the crystal, he could see the strange veins inside that extended like bloodshot.

"This thing looks like an egg..."

Ye Yiyi rubbed his chin and thought to himself, then he saw the little fish curiously stretched out its tentacles from the void and looked up and down at the yellow crystal.

"Puff~Puff~"

When Ye Yiyi heard the message conveyed by Xiaoyu, he was suddenly stunned.

"You mean, there's something very familiar about it?"

"Pfft!"

The little fish flicked its tentacles up and down, as if nodding like a human.

"That's really strange."

Ye Yiyi was surprised.

It has been less than a month since Xiaoyu actually arrived at the border, and he has spent most of his time in the foreign space.

In this case, what would make it feel familiar?

It's nothing but something from the universe!

Ye Yiyi thought about it, reached out his hand, and gently touched the crystal.

The light curtain then popped out.

[The Stillbirth of Stars]

Item Description: The fallen offspring of a nameless superior.

One of them was a stillborn fetus.

After using it, you can obtain soul echoes like the stars in the universe.

It is like a revelation from God.

But in the final analysis it is something that is completely incomprehensible.

"???"

After reading the item description, Ye Yiyi widened her eyes slightly, and her already confused brain suddenly became confused.

What does this mean?

What is something that is fundamentally incomprehensible?

No, buddy, why are you suddenly being so mysterious? How can I know if I can understand this if you don’t explain it?

Ye Yiyi looked at the egg-shaped crystal in his hand in disbelief, frowned tightly, and looked at the description on the light screen again, as if thinking about something.

"The fallen offspring of the nameless superior..."

Has he seen this "unknown superior" somewhere before?

Ye Yiyi had a vague impression of this, but couldn't remember where he had seen it.

He remembered that the mysterious characteristic [Reason] granted by the 15th Mystic had a special effect: when facing a higher-level being, the consumption of concentration and health points would be reduced.

He has never seen this high-ranking being before, and he is not sure whether it refers to the so-called "unknown superior".

But he is now a super wizard with an intelligence of 92 after all. His special enhanced thinking allows him to recall the information he wants in a very short time.

"Of all the items I've acquired so far, only one mentioned 'Nameless Superior' in its description."

Ye Yiyi thought so, and then took out a transparent cylindrical glass jar from behind him.

This is the liquid black box he found in the Plant Research Institute in Panyalong City.

Liquid Black Box

Item Description: An independent space created using a variety of kingly magic.

Portable containment equipment that is retained in the box through special means.

Can store liquid objects that pose a great risk.

The masterpiece of the one-armed craftsman Wang "Xiti".

It is said that he is a craftsman who serves the Light of the Universe.

During the exploration of an alien planet, he was attacked by the blood of an unknown superior.

After receiving blood at the cost of his arm, he was promoted.

After re-examining the description of this item, Ye Yiyi finally noticed something was wrong.

"What do you mean by being... attacked by the blood of an unknown superior?"

Does this blood refer to "blood" or some monster that looks like "blood"?

"Little fish."

After thinking about it, Ye Yiyi turned his head to look at the Hundred-Handed Fish who was studying the yellow crystals with the dung beetle.

"Do you know what the Nameless Superior is? The owner of that familiar aura on the stone? Any recollection?"

"Puchi?"

The little fish was stunned for a moment, then began to wave its tentacles left and right, just like a human shaking its head.

"Don't you know either?"

Ye Yiyi was a little disappointed.

"Tsk, it seems that if we want to find out what this so-called nameless superior is, we must first obtain the can of the contained superior's blood."

Although Ye Yiyi didn't know where that thing was now, he planned to go to the Xiti Wangjiang Workshop at the Winter Gate Dragon Battlefield as planned and take a look.

"If you're lucky, you can find it directly. If you're unlucky, you might find similar clues."

After putting away the liquid black box, Ye Yiyi took the dead fetus from Xiaoyu, frowned and fell into deep thought.

The [Dead Fetus of the Stars] he dug out has no difference in effect from the source of the curse, except that the description is a bit exaggerated.

But Ye Yiyi always felt that something was wrong.

The most important point is: why is this thing buried in the Forest of Falling Stones, and right under the body of the Crystal Turtle?

In addition, the "giant beast magic" mentioned by Shen Jing's tortoise shell shield also made him particularly concerned.

"Is there any connection between the monster's magic and the stillbirth of the stars?"

"If so, what is the connection between them?"

Thinking of this, Ye Yiyi put away the dead fetus and took out the concealment short stick from behind.

"Let's see if there's anything similar around here."

Amidst the whispers, a spell was released.

Soul Magic Crescent Moon Inquiry Technique!

The holy white moonlight fell from the void above Ye Yiyi's head, dispersing the misty nebulae suspended around him and casting a silver glow on the dark and damp land.

A sacred full moon then quietly emerged from the moonlight.

The new magic obtained from the paperhanger can use the crescent moon's light to symbolize the power of the soul, and can materialize the crescent moon and star mark to track specific things.

It can guide lost people to find their way, and can also be used to find specific beings.

Ye Yiyi plans to use this magic to find other stillborn stars hidden in the forest.
