Beast World: A Fragile Beauty Blessed with Many Children-Chapter 205 - 204: Fortune and Misfortune are Intertwined
Si Shuo picked up the Level 15 Wood Crystal Stone and pressed it to the center of her forehead, sensing it in detail. It was much more compact than a Level 13 stone. After silently estimating its entire structure, she figured she could probably replicate five of them!
’Crystal Stones with common elemental attributes are plentiful, but those with rare attributes like the Thunder and Wind Elements are extremely scarce.’ With this in mind, she put down the stone in her hand and picked up a Sixteen level attributeless crystal stone to sense it. ’Four of them. I should be able to replicate four at once.’
In the spirit of not wasting anything, she took out those three Sixteen level attributeless crystal stones, added a Level 15 Earth Attribute Crystal Stone and an Eleventh Level Wood Attribute Crystal Stone, and began to replicate them all together.
The third time, she directly replicated seven attributeless crystal stones!
Opening her eyes, Si Shuo stood up with a smile. Cradling a full ten Sixteen level attributeless crystal stones in her hands, she walked over to the two males. "Look, there’s enough for everyone in our family to have one."
attributeless crystal stones were even harder to find than rare ones. They could typically only be produced by certain specific types of beasts—and only those above Level 15 whose superpowers had mutated and become enhanced!
Wei Ce had gotten lucky. While searching for bamboo to eat, he had accidentally stumbled into a gathering place for Crow Sparrow Beasts. To lower the birds’ guard, he spent nearly half a month lying in wait. He almost got the fur on his head and back plucked clean before he finally managed to stealthily capture the three highest-level ones.
attributeless crystal stones were quite good at containing Spiritual Energy, but they also very easily absorbed and became tainted by other ambient Spiritual Energy. This quality actually allowed him to smuggle them out undetected.
Such crystal stones were incredibly precious and rare. Beastmen with any type of superpower could consume them, and they were brimming with vigorous life force, making them a huge boon for leveling up!
Neither Wei Jin nor Wei Ce had been willing to use them; the stones were practically their trump card for saving their lives or pushing for a new level.
’Three stones had become ten? And one for everyone in the family?!’ In Wei Ce’s mind, Si Shuo’s image grew even more grand and awe-inspiring... 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Even Ji Liang couldn’t help but hiss with excitement. He picked one up, his entire body uncontrollably drawn to the potent and pure power within. If not for his formidable self-control, he would have been unable to resist the urge to Devour it right then and there.
Si Shuo chuckled. "I can replicate four at a time. I’ll do it twice more tomorrow, and then we’ll be able to use them!"
With great difficulty, Ji Liang placed the crystal stone back in her hand. His voice was hoarse and tinged with excitement as he said, "With these Sixteen level attributeless crystal stones, the brothers in our family should be able to level up very soon."
Si Shuo hummed in agreement and carefully put the crystal stones away. Taking Wei Ce’s arm, she said with a smile, "From now on, I’ll take care of Father’s crystal stones, too."
As the Clan Leader of the Iron-eating Beast Clan, Wei Jin’s own Combat Power and talent were naturally impressive. However, he had been stuck at Level 13 for over a decade. If he didn’t advance before turning forty, he might never be able to level up again.
Wei Ce had been planning to hunt for more attributeless Crystal Cores over the next few years to give his Father a hand. However, the higher the level of a Crystal Core, the more impurities it contained. These impurities were difficult to expel from the body and instead became an obstacle to advancement.
In other words, even if his Father managed to surpass Level 13, he would likely remain a Level 14 Beastman for the rest of his life. ’Still, that’s good enough!’
He pulled Si Shuo into a tight hug, his voice muffled as he said, "Shuo, thank you! From now on, I’ll listen only to you. I’ll protect you for the rest of my life."
Si Shuo chuckled and patted his back. "Your Beast Mark is with me. Who else would you run off to protect? If you want to thank someone, you should thank yourself. If you hadn’t brought out those Sixteen level attributeless crystal stones, I wouldn’t have been able to replicate them.
Our lives will only get better from now on! Come on, let’s go home and eat."
Ji Liang led them away, carefully checking their path as they went. About the time it takes to drink a cup of tea after they vanished, a massive, golden figure drifted over. Its scarlet, forked tongue darted through the air, but it couldn’t catch any scent. ’Nothing at all?’
And yet, the air was clearly still thick with a complex but potent residue of Spiritual Energy that hadn’t completely dissipated!
At dinner, Si Shuo smilingly took out the ten Sixteen level attributeless crystal stones to show them off to everyone, causing the faces of all the men to flush with joy and excitement.
It was the body’s irresistible yearning for greater power.
Xu Chi held Xu Ye, patting him gently. His expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, "Wei Ce is an elite of the Iron-eating Beast Clan, a Level 14 Warrior who is well-known throughout the entire North City District.
A shuo became his partner, and we followed him here. Soon, we’ll have to start reporting to the Beast Soldier Camp one by one. Our family is also opening shops, workshops, a school, and a Martial Arts Hall, on top of farming and raising livestock. We’re making too big of a scene, and plenty of people are definitely watching us.
Never mind anyone else; the Winged Dragon Clan and the Gray Parrot Clan won’t be forgetting us anytime soon.
So, we must increase our Combat Power. But at the same time, if all of us level up together, it’s highly likely they’ll spread it around, claiming we’ve obtained some kind of treasure and inciting public outrage."
The group’s heated excitement instantly cooled. Fortune and misfortune were two sides of the same coin; they couldn’t relax their guard in the slightest just because they had the Iron-eating Beast Clan at their back.
Of everyone there, Xu Chi had fought his way up on his own, so his sensitivity to danger far surpassed the others’.
Xu Chi continued, "Since we’re a family, we share in all fortunes and failures, through life and death.
I am willing to contribute my clan’s Secret Technique and teach everyone how to suppress their cultivation!"
Si Shuo remembered. When she first met Xu Chi, she thought he was just a Level 3 Beastman. In reality, he had been one level higher than Ji Liang at the time—a Level 8 Beastman. He had managed to hide a full five levels, playing the part of a wolf in sheep’s clothing!
Xu Chi was a Horned Deer Beastman with too many secrets. She never expected that he would contribute this Secret Technique for the survival of their little family.
Si Shuo looked at him, her eyes stinging with emotion, but her heart felt warm. Xu Chi met her gaze, his own eyes gentle, his smile filled with love and resolve!
"Good brother," Ji Liang said, clapping him on the shoulder. "With our female here as witness, if anyone leaks this Secret Technique or inadvertently allows someone to uncover Xu Chi’s identity, they will have their mark automatically removed."
Removing the mark was equivalent to losing half one’s life and half of one’s cultivation. For a male with a superpower, it was a devastating blow.
The other Beast Husbands nodded in agreement. "We’ll also do everything in our power to protect Little Ye and Youyou, to keep their identities from being discovered..."
Hearing them say this, Xu Chi smiled and nodded; this was exactly what he had hoped for. He was capable of carefully concealing himself, but he couldn’t necessarily watch over the children at every moment.
If he were to meet an untimely end one day, he wouldn’t have to worry so much, knowing that Si Shuo and the cubs had these loyal and righteous brothers around.
The existence of a Horned Deer was, in itself, a volcano that could erupt at any moment and harm those closest to him.
Si Shuo’s gaze trembled slightly. Seeing his faint smile of relief, she understood what he meant. ’Sigh... one by one, the Beast Husbands in her family made her heart ache.’
Looking at Youyou in Xiao Cheng’s arms, Si Shuo chuckled and gently tapped her on the nose. "Little Ye and Youyou have seven good Fathers!"
Youyou gave an emphatic "Mmm!" in her tiny, milky voice, making everyone laugh.
