Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming Chapter 481 - 254: The Formation is Broken, The Final Battle

```

A block of spirit crystal, one foot long and four inches wide, contained enough spiritual power to fully saturate a Golden Elixir Early Phase cultivator with mana.

Using it for Purple Mansion Phase cultivators like Zhou Mingde and his peers, it could allow over a dozen of them to recover their full mana within just an hour.

Compared to Spirit Pills like Rejuvenation Pills that restored mana, the spiritual power contained in spirit crystals was much purer.

It was said that the most primitive spirit crystals could even be used to help Golden Core Stage cultivators break through certain bottlenecks!

At this ti, with the use of spirit crystals to replenish mana, Zhou Mingde and other Purple Mansion Phase cultivators quickly restored their mana to full.

Then, so of the retreated Golden Core Stage cultivators also began using spirit crystals to restore their mana.

However, once all the Golden Core Stage cultivators had retreated, the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Sect within the Golden Dragon Branch Altar gradually realized that sothing was amiss.

"Sothing’s not right. Golden Core Stage cultivators have abundant mana, how could they possibly be powerless to attack now? Even if they stopped because the Purple Mansion Phase cultivators couldn’t keep up with the attack rhythm, they should have withdrawn by now. Why would they linger around the outside without leaving?"

An Elder of Dragon Transformation Sect expressed his suspicion with a look of alarm.

Among so many elders of the Dragon Transformation Sect, there were naturally so astute ones, and it wasn’t long before soone thought of the existence of spirit crystals.

They then exclaid in shock, "Not good, they might be carrying a lot of spirit crystals on them, and now they are using them to replenish and restore their mana!"

Spirit crystals were extrely precious strategic resources, and although the Wasteland Territory occupied by the Dragon Transformation Sect was rich in resources, they had never discovered a vein of spirit crystals.

In the Cultivation World, the vast majority of spirit crystal veins were exhausted long ago, having been excavated by cultivators, and now only ancient and powerful forces possessed so spirit crystals for war reserves.

That’s why, although there were quite a few Golden Core Stage cultivators in the Dragon Transformation Sect, only a few had spirit crystals on them.

After all, when the Dragon Transformation Sect was originally destroyed, the spirit crystals they had were either used up, destroyed, or confiscated by the three major sects of Jingguo Country.

The few spirit crystals that remained were now concentrated in the hands of a few Nascent Soul Stage cultivators and were not available to these Golden Core Stage cultivators.

Also, because they did not possess spirit crystals or even had the chance to use them, at first, none of them considered the possibility that the enemy might be carrying a large number of spirit crystals.

It was only now, when they realized sothing was wrong, that they considered this possibility.

However, realizing this now was undoubtedly too late.

At this mont, Zhou Mingde and other Purple Mansion Phase cultivators had already fully recovered their mana, and although the Golden Core Stage cultivators still had a good amount of mana left, the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Sect inside the Golden Dragon Branch Altar were unable to escape their pursuit even if they abandoned the altar now.

This they understood clearly.

The difficulty of this situation undoubtedly made the moods of these Dragon Transformation Sect cultivators much heavier.

In the end, they could only grit their teeth and continue to hold the Golden Dragon Branch Altar.

While both sides were busy recovering their mana, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi were called over by Liu Yiping for questioning.

When the two arrived, they saw that Liu Yiping, Jin Chixuan, and Taoist Nun Qingsu, all three Golden Core late-phase cultivators, were present.

After they finished their greetings, Liu Yiping looked at the two n with a deep gaze and said, "Liu rembers that the last ti the news about the Beast Tide outbreak ca from your Zhou Family, and this ti, it was you who discovered that magic artifact. Are all these rely coincidences?"

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi both changed color.

Zhou Mingde, with a face full of panic, hurriedly bowed and said, "Senior Liu, your discernnt is clear. The news of the Beast Tide outbreak was indeed reported by this junior only after receiving the ssage from Taoist Friend Lu Ran. If you don’t believe , I can ask Lu Ran to co and explain to you after the war is over!"

Zhou Daoyi also repeatedly bowed and said, "Senior Liu, your discernnt is clear, it was indeed by chance that this junior was near that magic artifact and discovered it, without any deceit!"

Both knew that with the war coming to an end, the Zhou Family’s private communication with Lin Hongyu, the Protector of Dragon Transformation Sect, must not be exposed. Discover exclusive content at .Côm

And they were confident that Liu Yiping could not have any evidence, so they thought that the questioning at this ti was nothing more than a common tactic.

Because they were genuinely worried about being implicated, their expressions of panic at this ti were not feigned.

Liu Yiping and the other two watched the changes in their expressions but saw nothing unusual.

So Liu Yiping soon smiled faintly and said, "Perhaps it really was a coincidence. Don’t overthink it. Both pieces of information you’ve reported were very tily, and you will definitely be rewarded for your rits after the war."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingde also nodded repeatedly in response, "Yes, yes, we definitely wouldn’t dare to have any improper thoughts."

Seeing this, Liu Yiping looked at them and asked again, "I hear you’re quite knowledgeable about the Dragon Transformation Sect. Do you have any suggestions for attacking this Golden Dragon Branch Altar? Who do you think could be the person who leaked the information?"

"That… this junior wouldn’t dare to make careless remarks!"

Zhou Mingde opened his mouth, shaking his head in a cautious and prudent manner, refusing to speak.

And Zhou Daoyi simply clamped his mouth shut, offering no response at all.

Liu Yiping then spread his hands and said, "Don’t worry, if you have any thoughts, just speak frankly. Even if you’re wrong, it doesn’t matter. If your suggestions are taken into account, that would be contributing advice."
