Chapter 165: The First Hall-Tier Spirit Beast on the Whole Network!

You're saying… the Hall Crystal is alive?!

Hearing Qin Chuan's words, Yue Li couldn't help but show an expression of surprise.

In the evolution formation, they had all seen the phantom of the Hall Crystal.

That was clearly just a beautiful crystal; Yue Li could never imagine what it would look like for a resource to be alive.

"Strictly speaking, the Hall Crystal's outward appearance isn't a crystal." Qin Chuan shook his head slightly, correcting Yue Li's statement, "By using the third-grade lock of the Sundial Needle talent to observe the Hall Crystal, I discovered it is a juvenile-stage rabbit Spirit Beast."

"I think this is the Hall Crystal's way of disguising itself." Qin Chuan smiled, "No wonder no one has ever discovered it before."

In the Dream World, there are too many players; theoretically, any resource that exists in the Dream World will be discovered.

Previously, undiscovered rare resources relied on their low profile and constant shifting.

As more and more players became aware of this, the number of discovered rare resources has increased, allowing more and more Spirit Beasts to break through to the Elite Tier.

Now, the Hall Crystal disguises itself as a Spirit Beast.

"Let's first deal with the Area Guardian Spirit Beast in Area 3042."

However, over the past three days, Qin Chuan observed the Hall Crystal making two sudden rapid movements; these movements had no warning, and after moving, it never returned to its original position, instead making small-range movements in the new spot.

"Good." Qin Chuan smiled, "It won't cause any delay."

Among the four Area Guardian Spirit Beasts that Shui Hua needs to defeat for her advancement, one is here.

"What's wrong?" Yue Li turned her head, looking curiously at Qin Chuan, "Didn't you just say it was not far ahead?"

Plus, Qin Chuan had previously embedded three Advanced Resources into Shui Hua's advancement formation, further boosting her strength; ultimately, the Hall Tier Lv38 Area Guardian Spirit Beast in Area 3042 could not escape the two of them.

As expected of a super rare resource, even its disguise is unique.

Area 3042 is the zone they are currently in.

Before, Qin Chuan didn't understand the reason for this rapid movement.

After obtaining the final Advanced Resource needed for Shui Hua's advancement, the two spurred their mounts, immediately changed direction toward Area 2633, and finally arrived there three days later.

Moreover, since the Hall Crystal can transform into a Spirit Beast, it naturally has a way to avoid various risks.

"Area 2633..." After learning the zone number where the Hall Crystal is located from Qin Chuan, Yue Li opened the map, "We'll need three days to get there."

Xiao Qing beat its wings and hovered momentarily; Shui Hua, carrying Qin Chuan, also stopped its steps.

"Xiao Qing, Shui Hua, stop."

In the Dream World, Spirit Beasts are the most numerous; no player would bother to seek them out one by one.

Staring intently at the current situation of the Hall Crystal on the screen, Qin Chuan suddenly spoke.

Over the past three days, he had been continuously monitoring the Hall Crystal's movements.

Under normal circumstances, the Hall Crystal moves within a very small range.

"However, we can take the opportunity to defeat the Area Guardian Spirit Beast needed for the Silver Horn advancement."

"It is currently in a rapid-moving position." Qin Chuan furrowed his brow slightly.

With the lesson from last time and several days of active coordination, this time the six Spirit Beasts showed greater teamwork, making the battle proceed much more smoothly than before.

And now, he roughly understood.

Because of the players.

At this moment, he was only one kilometer away from the Hall Crystal; no matter how he approached, the Hall Crystal would rapidly move, keeping the distance between them no less than one kilometer.

He didn't know if it was a coincidence, but this distance happened to be outside the range of the Sundial Needle's first-grade talent.

Over the past three days, it was likely that some players happened to pass by, causing its rapid movement.

Realizing this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

It had already disguised itself so successfully, yet it would actively avoid players?!

No wonder no one can find it.

Hearing Qin Chuan's explanation, Yue Li slightly frowned, "Why not let the Spirit Beast go alone?"

"Okay."

Qin Chuan nodded, jumped down from Shui Hua's back, and patted its shoulder, which was as high as a person.

Shui Hua, move out!

"Woof!"

Shui Hua let out a loud shout and, under Qin Chuan's guidance, charged toward the direction where the Hall Crystal was located.

Seeing the Hall Crystal hardly moving in place, Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, only when a Spirit Beast approaches does it not flee.

Otherwise, he truly wouldn't know how to obtain this resource.

"This way, even without the Sundial Needle's lock, we can still detect the opponent." Yue Li pondered briefly, then her eyes lit up, "We two will ride Shui Hua on the ground, while Xiao Qing observes from the air for any abnormal Spirit Beast activity within a one-kilometer radius."

"That way we can quickly identify what animal the Hall Crystal has transformed into."

"Indeed." Qin Chuan nodded in agreement.

Once we know the pattern and then go back to search, we can naturally prescribe the right remedy.

Soon, Shui Hua ran back, carrying a rabbit Spirit Beast in its mouth, full of enthusiasm.

As the distance between this rabbit Spirit Beast and Qin Chuan and Yue Li was forced to close, its body gradually became indistinct.

At the moment Qin Chuan touched it with his hand, the Spirit Beast turned into a beautiful crystal.

【Congratulations, player obtained Super Rare Advanced Resource: Hall Crystal】

Clutching the Hall Crystal tightly in his hand, Qin Chuan's smile could not be contained.

However, he did not immediately embed the Hall Crystal into the advancement formation to let Shui Hua advance; instead, he turned his head to look at Yue Li beside him and said, "We can begin now."

"Mm!" Yue Li nodded, then clasped her hands together in anticipation.

A hazy glow blossomed around her; within ten minutes, Yue Li's luck would receive a threefold, tremendous boost.

Based on the experience of obtaining rare-class resources before, under this level of luck, the next transfer of a rare-class resource will definitely occur within a one-kilometer radius around Yue Li.

The Hall Crystal is a super-rare resource; using one will trigger the refresh of the next. Therefore, after discussing, the two wanted to test whether giving Yue Li luck before using the Hall Crystal would cause the next Hall Crystal to refresh nearby.

Even though super-rare resources are less affected by luck, the refresh distance is greater than that of rare-class resources; with their current efficiency, they could still find each other quickly.

After all, just moments ago, they had already figured out how to find the Hall Crystal.

After confirming that Yue Li had already blessed herself with luck, Qin Chuan took a deep breath and placed the Hall Crystal into the center of the advanced formation, into that unique recess.

Accompanied by a burst of light, the entire advanced formation lit up, and at the same time, Shui Hua's body also lit up.

Accompanied by a rising momentum, Shui Hua's body rapidly swelled in the light.

After the light faded, it, which originally measured about three meters in length including its tail, now stood nearly ten meters tall, looking extremely similar to the Spirit Beasts of the towns they had previously defeated.

The enormous size is exclusive to the Hall Tier.

Shui Hua slightly shook its head, and its body quickly shrank under the gaze of Qin Chuan, Yue Li, and the other five companions, returning to its original size.

This ability to freely adjust its size is also exclusive to the Hall Tier.
