Chapter 1094: How Can You Treat These Four Like This?
Lingjing, also known as spirit crystal, is a higher-grade form formed after the existence of spirit stone veins over a long period of time. It contains more abundant and pure spiritual energy. At the same time, it's also a necessity for arranging high-level formations.
He Yiming, with his current high cultivation and formation proficiency, didn't need to rely on spirit crystals to set up formations. But for players, it was essential. Without spirit crystals, their formations would lack stability and foundation.
For the Flame Prison Sect, only He Yiming and Tushan, as the only young master, were capable of arranging formations. Other players, like Wang Lufei, had already reached the Nascent Soul realm and were unable to set up even a first-grade formation.
But with spirit crystals, things would be much simpler. Players would prepare a formation plate and refine it according to He Yiming's instructions. Then, placing it in the spirit crystal, the formation would automatically activate.
Without spirit crystals, setting up formations was like manually generating electricity to power electronic devices. The more energy-intensive the device, the harder it was. For formations of sixth or seventh grade, it was equivalent to supplying an entire city through manual generation – an impossible task.
However, with spirit crystals, it became much easier. Spirit crystals acted like batteries – you placed them in, turned on the switch, and it worked.
"Good! Very good! Then, may I ask Bai Mei'er, when can we start mining?" He Yiming asked directly.
"I'll return to the tribe first, arrange for people to establish a teleportation array. After the dimensional channel opens, it'll be possible! It'll take about half a month!" Bai Mei'er answered.
"Very well!" He Yiming nodded.
With the prospects of continuous supply of materials for refining Infant Transformation Pills, materials for long-term magic equipment, and the much-needed spirit crystals for high-level formations, He Yiming's mood improved significantly.
Meanwhile, Mo Daji had arranged a group of professional magic equipment forgers, who would deliver the materials along with the first batch of magic equipment. With the help of high-level mathematical and virtual players, the transition process was smooth.
"Master He, are you really not letting me do something for you...?" Bai Mei'er muttered, seeming dissatisfied. She stood up, unable to restrain herself, and spoke softly.
"... " He Yiming pondered for three seconds, then turned and asked.
"Since Bai Mei'er is so enthusiastic, then..."
"Can we select a hundred White Fox Tribe women skilled in singing and dancing? Is that possible?"
"I have an idea!"
...
After briefly discussing with Bai Mei'er, He Yiming left with big strides.
"Cheerleaders?" Bai Mei'er was puzzled, wondering what He Yiming meant by the term.
"Yiming, something bad has happened!" As soon as He Yiming came out, several players ran over, calling out anxiously.
"What's going on?" He Yiming asked casually.
"Those gluttons have tied up the four interim clan leaders of the demon race on the Heavenly Fire and are saying they want to barbecue them! No matter how we persuade them, they won't listen! Ah, these idiots! Don't they know that hotpot tastes better? Yiming, quickly ban those evil guys' accounts! Tell them that hotpot is the authentic cuisine of the Flame Prison Sect!" these players exclaimed in distress, their expressions filled with regret.
"???" He Yiming tilted his head.
Is there something wrong with you guys?
These are the interim clan leaders dispatched by the four major demon clans to the Chaotic Star Sea. And you want to barbecue and eat them?
Ah, I'm so tired!
He Yiming thought for a moment, then followed these players to the square.
At this moment, on the Tianlong Island square, players were having a large-scale bonfire party!
Some were setting up hotpots and cooking, others were dancing to background music, and there was even a group digging trenches???
"Damn, Yiming's here!"
"It's Yiming!"
"Yiming's here!"
...
Seeing He Yiming arrive, the players at the scene became excited and crowded around.
Ignoring these players, He Yiming shifted his gaze to the center of the square.
There were four huge barbecue grills in the middle of the square, roaring with vigorous and astonishing Heavenly Fire.
On the grills were tied up four figures, beaten so badly they were barely recognizable.
They were none other than the interim clan leaders: Long Ao of the Dragon Scales Clan, Xiang Babba of the Giant Elephant Clan, Ying Ji of the Thunderhawk Clan, and Hu Zhe of the Silver Tiger Clan.
Initially, when the Flame Prison Sect first entered the Chaotic Star Sea, these four clans showed indifference towards them. They even looked down on them a little.
However, not even half a year had passed!
Now these four were being barbecued by the Flame Prison Sect's disciples?
"Tsk tsk, so miserable!" He Yiming shook his head, finding it unbearable to watch.
Long Ao's dragon scales were almost plucked off entirely.
Xiang Babba's ivory tusks had been sawed off and turned into chopsticks by players.
Ying Ji's feathers were mostly gone, and some players were sprinkling chili powder and cumin on his hawk claws.
Hu Zhe was in an even worse state – his tiger fangs had been pulled out, and his tiger tail had been cut off. It was truly a pitiful sight!
As He Yiming approached, he heard the players' quarrel.
"The way you guys are doing this is just wrong! It should be a hotpot!"
"Nonsense! We should use some demon oil and deep fry them. They'll taste delicious then!"
"I think barbecue isn't bad either!"
"Hotpot is the authentic one. What you're doing is heretical!"
"Get lost! These four are the ones we caught. I want to barbecue and eat them!"
"Anything works for me. I just want to know when the meal will be served. They're taking forever!"
...
The players were in an uproar, paying no attention to what He Yiming was saying. Whatever he said, they had no objections.
But at this moment, He Yiming slowly spoke up, his words shocking.
