"Do you know what these crystals are?"
After looking at the three pieces of Green Source Crystals in the golden box for a short while, the Light Devouring Beast calmed down and asked. Obviously, she was asking Alex.
Alex, of course, knew that these were Green Source Crystals. He replied: "Of course, they are Source Crystals that you were looking for a long time.
The Light Devouring Beast nodded her head and then shook again before saying: "You can't say that these are Source Crystals. These are Green Source Crystals. I've devoured eight of these Green Source Crystals and require two more to reach the state of metamorphosis and evolve. These Green Source Crystals are the lowest grade of Source Crystals. But even so, finding them is as hard as looking for the core of the world."
"Our world is very big, so big that you can't explore it completely even after living for hundreds of thousands of years. I have lived for more than a thousand years and have even gone to the True Essence Sky World. But I soon ran back because the True Essence Sky World is far more dangerous than you can even think of. It is also the true place for cultivators, but of course, no cultivator below Void King Stage can survive in this world on their own without the backing of even the lowest level of force."
"I found Valley of Death safer than the True Essence Sky World. I was born in the Valley of Death and know everything about it. Someday, when you'll surpass the Extreme Void Stage, you should go and explore the Valley of Death. You'll find enough opportunities there to leave a mark even in the True Essence Sky World. You'll find both opportunities and legends of the past in the Valley of Death. Valley of Death is far more mysterious than anyone can even imagine. It has buried many myths and legends underneath. My strength is too low to explore them, that's why I never dared to explore those places. I only dared to stay and explore places that I could with my current strength."
"Then one day, I found out about my species. My race has gone extinct from the Universe in the foremost era known as the Primordial Era. We, Light Devouring Beasts, are a very unique existence that should have been completely destroyed in the Primordial Era, however, for some reason, an egg survived, and a thousand years ago, it hatched and I came out."
"The place where you find me and my daughter, that place is the birthplace of me as well as my daughter. That place is also the only relic of my race. That relic has many places that are restricted and only with a certain level of strength could one explore those places."
"The places I explored till now have given me very profound knowledge about me and my race. There are many forms a Light Devouring Beast could evolve to, however, due to the limitations and restrictions inside the relic, I only managed to secure the information that after devouring ten Source Crystals, a Light Devouring Beast could evolve into a Sky Devouring Beast."
"Source Crystals are unique treasures that direction come to existence from the source of the world itself. They are divided into three types: Green Source Crystals, Red Source Crystals, and Golden Source Crystals. Green Source Crystals are the lowest grade of Source Crystals, and Golden Source Crystals are the highest grade of Source Crystals."
"A Light Devouring Beast could evolve into a Sky Devouring Beast by devouring ten Source Crystals. These ten source crystals could of the lowest grade and they could even be the highest grade of source crystals. There is no requirement. But to further evolve from Sky Devouring Beast to a higher level of existence, we need 100 Red Source Crystals."
"As for what the next evolution of Sky Devouring Beast is called, I'm not aware for now. If I want to gain my hands on that information, I need to evolve into Sky Devouring Beast first before returning to the Valley of Death again."
"Valley of Death... As I told you before, it contains many legends and myths of the past. Since a relic from the Primordial Era is there, it means the Valley of Death hides secrets of the Primordial Era there. But we have no strength to explore the Valley of Death for now. And I doubt, even the strongest person in the entire Essence Sky World can't explore the Valley of Death completely."
After saying till here, the Light Devouring Beast used her tail to throw a Green Source Crystal at him. Alex caught the Source Crystal and looked at her again.
She looked at her daughter with deep emotions, before shifting her gaze to look at Alex, and said: "Do you know why I told you these things?"
Alex, of course, had no idea. He shook his head.
Seeing him shaking his head, the Light Devouring Beast said: "I told you these things to let you know that although we are beasts, we are not as simple as demonic beasts. We more than just demonic beasts, just like True Dragons of the legend."
"Although you have contracted with my daughter when she was still sleeping inside her egg, she is not a pet you can make use of for your own gains. You would have never been able to make a contract with my daughter if not for that weird energy inside your body. I would have killed you the moment I saw you back then, however, my daughter told me about the strange energy that you fed her with. And when I sensed it, I felt like the universe's most valuable treasure is circulating inside your body. That weird energy is very beneficial for both me and my daughter. It could increase our strength by leaps and bounds in a very short period of time."
"I have been observing you all these days. I saw you cultivating and increasing your strength. I saw the among of that weird energy increasing inside your body. However, I was unable to see or sense how they increased! It is as if a layer of fog is hiding everything about that energy from the eyes of outsiders."
"I told you so many things because I want you to return to the Valley of Death with my daughter after she evolves to the Sky Devouring Beast. It is now your responsibility to search for the Source Crystals and let her evolve."
"I now have the last two Source Crystals that I need, so I'll be returning to the Valley of Death first. Remember to return there, and I'll lead you to a place where you can obtain an opportunity that is very likely to be left in the Primordial Era."
Alex nodded his head. He already knew about the Sky Devouring Beast and how a Light Devouring Beast could evolve into a Sky Devouring Beast. Although he didn't know how a Sky Devouring Beast could further evolve because the System didn't show the requirement, and the requirement to evolve again from the Sky Devouring Beast will likely appear only if a Sky Devouring Beast appears in front of him, but he does know what a Sky Devouring Beast could evolve to and more.
Of course, he'll be happy to help little Light Devouring Beast evolve into Sky Devouring Beast. This will strengthen his own strength further in return.
Previously, he used Chaos Energy to make a forceful contract with little Light Devouring Beast. He did this because he found Light Devouring Beast a unique beast for possessing so many bloodlines.
But now that he knows that Light Devouring Beasts are not as simple as demonic beasts, he knew he should not keep the little Light Devouring Beast as his pet. He decided to break the contract after helping little Light Devouring Beast evolve into Sky Devouring Beast. And then he'll let her return to her mother.
As for the matter of Valley of Death, Alex found it very interesting. He knew that the Valley of Death is exceedingly dangerous, and no one has been able to explore the Valley of Death because whoever enters the Valley of Death had died.
Only a few people managed to return alive. This was also the reason why Cleo Vidar, the person sent by Star Seeking Tower to recruit 100 geniuses in the Wasteland, chose a broken part of Valley of Death as the testing ground. This was a broken part of the Valley of Death and was not as dangerous as the real Valley of Death.
If Alex could explore the Valley of Death, he'll of course do so.
As for the things about the Primordial Era, Alex has no idea what this Primordial Era actually is.
But from mother Light Devouring Beast, he deduced that the Valley of Death must have appeared in the Primordial Era. After all, the reason and year of the appearance of the Valley of Death can't be found even in the most ancient records found in the world till now.
