Ian carefully observed Shark Shark again and found that Master Oak should really teach him everything he could. He couldn't help but sigh: "The world is so big and full of wonders. Shark Shark, you can be regarded as the protagonist. If you eat fish and crash into boats in the South China Sea, there will be people

It’s great luck to send you a secret book from the sky!”

"oh!"

Shark didn't understand what the protagonist template was. It just saw Ian, so it happily took a spin in the sea.

However, in addition, Ian also noticed that the state of Shark Shark in the silver chip also had the same 'crystalline biological transformation' tendency as Elan. It was the result of the same chip being affected by advanced crystalline organisms.

Now things got interesting, and Ian began to think that this might be the influence of the crystallized lake?

But it doesn't matter, they will go there soon to see what is going on.

With Shark Shark's current size and strength, plus Ian's protection, it won't take long for it to lead everyone to the Great Maze of the South China Sea.

The dark silver giant shark flew at an electric speed through the increasingly vibrant offshore waters of the South China Sea, then reached the depths of the far sea and swam toward a secret passage on the seabed.

It used to be the passage used by the crystal dragon to enter and exit the maze, and it was also a shortcut to the crystal lake. Now it is the entrance for the sharks to return home. Ian and others avoid the sight of others and enter the secret passage inside the maze.

"This is my first time here."

Leaning on the back of the shark, Elder Puder stroked his beard curiously and looked around at the wonderful scenery around the deep sea - due to the cause of the big storm, the heat dissipation of the labyrinth energy system was abnormal, and most of the earth's core on the surrounding seafloor showed strange melting and solidification.

It looks like an alien planet, with regular octagonal prisms standing on the smooth seabed.

After entering the channel, the closer you get to the inside of the crystal lake, the more obvious this regular crystallization phenomenon becomes.

The rich natural source material and spiritual energy field made the elder frown even more, and he was slightly shocked: "No wonder the natural source material here is almost substantial.

The labyrinth will breed existences that are far beyond normal monsters like the Lord of the Labyrinth. In such an environment, even the most ordinary tidal fish school can breed a fish king that is almost a dragon, right?"

"Yes. Moreover, the source material in the crystal lake is very pure. Elder, if you have time in the future, you can bring Elan here to rest and exercise."

The reason why Ian did not recommend this place to Elder Puder and Ellan before was mainly because Elder Puder was not so free at that time. The Redwood Aboriginals were defeated. As Viscount Grant's deputy, he still had a lot of work to do, not to mention

What is needed to nourish the body is not a high-quality environment, but a stable ordinary environment.

Elan had not received formal training at that time, and entering a high-quality environment rashly might cause physical dysfunction.

Just like the upper city area of ​​the Imperial Capital, ordinary people may die even if they get close to it. Although Crystal Lake is not that dangerous, it can easily turn good things into bad things.

But Elan can now enter the 'tranquil,' level of meditation, so the crystal lake is only good for him.

"I understand."

Elder Pude also knew this, and he nodded solemnly.

"When will our Xiahui leader have such a good environment?"

Qingchao also lamented that for a second energy level like him, the environment of the crystal lake is also very superior. It can not only improve the body's adaptability to the source material, but also accelerate the growth of the soul, which has all the benefits and no harm.

, What a pity is that unlike Elan, he will live in Harrison Port for a long time in the future and can come here often to practice.

"It's not like there's nothing."

Ian thought about it and found that there was indeed a similar area in Xiahui Ling: the bottom of Xiahui Lake was a similar high-quality environment.

But the bottom of the lake is too narrow, and it is not a cave area like the crystal lake. It needs to dive to a depth of a thousand meters, which is impossible for ordinary people to do, and can only be used by sublimators.

When the Earth Vein Furnace is developed, perhaps we can imitate the principle of the 'Ghost Crystal Engine' to create an artificial high-quality area.

While everyone was sighing, Shark arrived at Crystal Lake.

Inside the crystal lake, everything is the same as when Ian left last time, and Shark took good care of the place.

Shark sent everyone to the shore, while Ian went directly to the crystal island in the center of the lake.

He wanted to see what happened to the crystallized dragon egg that was suspected to be the source of 'crystallization' in Elan and Shark.

The crystal dragon egg is located in the center of the crystal island. It was originally only the size of a human head, but after being continuously catalyzed and nurtured by the spiritual energy field around the crystal lake, it is now half the size of a human.

The entire egg looks like a huge diamond composed of countless regular crystals. Thousands of facets are crystal clear, absorbing all the brilliance around it, and releasing warm and pure light to the outside.

There were already cracks in its shell. Just as Shark Shark said, it had hatched, but something went wrong. The little crystal dragon did not leave the egg, but remained in this state of 'about to emerge but not yet emerge'.

But its vitality has not declined, but has become more and more vigorous as time goes by.

Silver-blue eyes flashed.

[Ether Crystal Dragon Egg]

[First energy level·Special species·Cornerstone·Edible]

[Beyond the designer’s expectations, it was a perfect transformation, one of the three eggs catalyzed by the etheric crystal dragon that reached its complete form with its last life]

[As the only dragon egg without defects, it should have hatched normally to produce the first naturally conceived etheric crystal dragon. However, due to being contaminated by the insect nest, it had undergone special changes. It had already produced a soul before it was born, and was connected with it.

The link between his brothers and sisters, who should have died young, has undergone indescribable changes]

[The egg has hatched, but it is still the last step before the final birth]

[Contains source quality: 2853.1391 base unit]

【.】

"Huh?"

Ian was a little surprised.

He had known about the abnormality of the crystal dragon egg for a long time, and the contamination of the insect nest, or the transformation, had indeed occurred for a long time - as he had fought so many times with the crystal dragon

An old rival for many years, Ian would not believe it if the Insect Hive had no method to deal with the Crystal Dragon.

The insect nest's countermeasures against the crystal dragon can basically be called 'If I can't beat you, I can't beat your cub?' - The insect swarm's contamination of the dragon eggs is quite direct and effective, even if the ether crystal dragon ends up using his own life

The power was purified, but the anomaly was still left.

The two dragon eggs taken away by Master Gesai were the two with the most serious abnormalities.

He saw this, so he specifically used these two dragon eggs as mission targets and left the intact one to Ian.

But now it seems that the connection between the crystallized dragon eggs seems to be far beyond Ian's imagination. This seemingly intact one still has some "remnants".

Of course, it may not be a future trouble... In a sense, the introduction of superior external forces is a kind of 'evolution' for crystal dragons, a fickle group with extremely high adaptability.

"interesting."

Ian thought for a moment of the three-headed crystal dragon that emerged from the sea on the way to the swarm, and he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Could it be that the three-headed crystal dragon was not a transformation of mine in bad taste, but

Is it necessary?"

"Three crystal dragon eggs, due to the influence of the insect swarm, have actually been linked into one. They are not three separate entities, so they must be hatched together?"

"The reason why the one in my hand has not fully hatched is because of the connection between the three dragon eggs that transcends time and space, which prevents it from fully maturing before the other two dragon eggs hatch?"

This is just a guess and Ian doesn't think this guess is quite right.

This does not explain the impact that Shark and Elan were affected.

The relationship between the three dragon eggs should be simpler than he imagined.

There was no point in thinking about it. Ian walked forward directly, stretched out his hand, and touched the dragon egg.

Then, he felt a feeling that was almost like cheering.

A feeling of invitation.

and a sense of ‘expectation’ waiting for guidance.

It is like an ignorant cub, a machine that has just been born but has no program. It does not know how to eat or how to breathe. Therefore, even if it has been born, it can only stay in the eggshell and wait for the arrival of its "teacher"

.

Tell it how it should ‘exist’.

How to become ‘life’.

Ian is its ‘teacher.

Its [parents].

"How should I teach you?"

Ian asked.

Then, he got a response.

——Of course, it is a personal demonstration.

——In another body.

At this moment, Ian felt that his spirit had received an invitation. This invitation was similar to the feeling that he had used the authority of the labyrinth to descend on Shark, the agent of the Lord of the Labyrinth. His soul suddenly appeared.

A perspective.

"Another body. Interesting."

With a guess in his mind, Ian sensed it and didn't notice the danger - he was immediately interested: "Okay, let's try it."

So he slipped his consciousness into that perspective.

Then, Ian felt his eyes go dark.

And when he opened his eyes again.
