Full-Time Magister: My Elements Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 84 The Pulse of the Star River

After extinguishing the remaining flames on the two people.

Lin Yu began to grope the two of them.

He quickly spotted a round metal plate on the high-ranking mage wearing a baseball cap. It had some exquisite patterns on it, like a coin, but Lin Yu was certain that it was not a coin.

After putting away the round metal piece, he turned to another corpse.

When they reached into the body's inner pocket, they found a round metal piece and a hard object inside.

After taking it out, Lin Yu's eyes widened instantly.

It was the size of a goose egg, a crystal that resembled a diamond but was even more lustrous and translucent.

Adorned with countless dense points of light, a closer look reveals that they are as beautiful and dazzling as a galaxy.

"This—" Lin Yu's eyes widened even further as he stared at the dazzling crystal in his hand. "Could this be the Star River Vein?!"

Hearing Lin Yu's voice.

Tang Yue also came over.

When she saw what Lin Yu was holding, she opened her mouth slightly in shock.

"The Star River Vein... It's actually the Star River Vein!!"

After a moment, Lin Yu came to his senses.

He had never seen the Star River Vein; he only knew about it through pictures and records.

He turned to look at Tang Yue, "Have you seen the Star River Vein? Is this really it?"

Tang Yue came to her senses and nodded. "This is indeed the Star Sea Vein."

"I've seen them before. Although the textures of the Star River Veins are different, and the size or shape of each individual is also somewhat different, they are still easy to identify."

"Tsk tsk tsk." Lin Yu couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement upon receiving an affirmative answer. "Is the Black Church that rich? Does every blue-robed deacon or mid-level mage receive a Star River Vein?"

"You're overthinking it." Tang Yue shook her head. "Among the members of the Black Church, there are many scions of powerful families or leaders of smaller clans."

"The Star River Vein is usually prepared by the family."

"However, some accomplished mid-level mages will have such resources when they are about to break through to a higher level."

Lin Yu nodded. If the Black Vatican were really that generous, spending over a hundred million to buy one item, they might have already dominated the world.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Lin Yu put the Star River Vein and the two strange round metal objects into his pocket.

He stood up happily. "Come on, let's go inside and take a look."

Tang Yue stared blankly at Lin Yu's back for a moment before following in his footsteps.

After the earlier incident, the three resumed their original formation when they first entered the cave.

Lin Yu walked at the front, holding a flame for illumination, Bai Suwei was in the middle, and Tang Yue walked at the back, also holding a flame.

But it wasn't that far.

The entire cave began to slowly shrink.

It is about two or three hundred meters long. The original height of more than twenty meters has been reduced to five or six meters, and the width is only five or six meters.

There was no road ahead.

"This should be the real end."

Lin Yu looked at him and spoke calmly.

Tang Yue walked up to Lin Yu from behind, and the two clusters of flames illuminated the end of the cave even brighter.

"What is that?"

Tang Yue looked at a 'stone' placed on the ground at the end of the cave and asked curiously.

Hearing Tang Yue's words, Lin Yu finally noticed the 'stone'.

The area at the end of the cave was very clean, without even a few loose stones, making the appearance of this 'stone' seem quite out of place.

At this moment, Bai Suwei, who had been silent all along, slowly walked towards the stone.

Lin Yu and Tang Yue exchanged a glance and followed Bai Suwei's footsteps.

When she reached the 'stone', Bai Suwei stopped, gently squatted down, and hugged the 'stone' as if she were hugging Lin Yu.

As Lin Yu approached, he also noticed the unusual nature of the stone.

The lower half of the stone still resembles a bluish-gray stone, while the upper half, like jade, has had its outer bluish-gray skin removed, revealing its dark red interior.

It looks like congealed blood.

Xiao Lan had somehow joined them, her eyes fixed on the bloodstone, a strange light gleaming in them.

After a while.

Bai Suwei, who was lying on the bloodstone, slowly straightened up. She knelt on the ground and looked up at Lin Yu with a wronged expression, saying, "This is what summoned me here."

As she spoke, her eyes reddened.

For a novice mage whose profession is teaching, it is indeed disheartening to have spent four days searching in the forest despite the dangers, only to find a single stone.

Lin Yu hesitated for a moment before squatting down and comforting her, "It's okay, didn't we agree that I would help you look for it again?"

The latest novel is first published here!

"Even if this thing isn't it, it's definitely related to it."

"It's not just a matter of relationship," Tang Yue said at this moment. "I didn't expect that what you were looking for was actually a totem beast."

As she spoke, she looked at Bai Suwei with a complicated expression, "I had the same guess before, but I didn't dare to believe it. When I saw this drop of blood, I was sure."

Tang Yue herself is a totem guardian, so she has some understanding of totem beasts.

Lin Yu looked at Tang Yue curiously, "You're saying this is a drop of blood?"

Tang Yue nodded. "Powerful totem creatures often possess extraordinary power, and they can live for hundreds or even thousands of years."

"This stone might be from hundreds of years ago, when the totem beast you are looking for was injured, and its blood dripped onto this stone, which is why it looks like this."

"Has it been injured?" Bai Suwei murmured, looking at the bloodstone in front of her, after hearing Tang Yue's question. "It's all because we didn't protect it well."

Lin Yu didn't know how to continue comforting him.

Fortunately, Bai Suwei quickly recovered. She got up, walked behind Lin Yu, took out her xun from her backpack, and began to play it with great concentration.

A mournful sound echoed through the cave.

Xiao Lan performed much better this time when faced with the sound of the Xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) and did not lose focus again.

However, they kept their distance and didn't dare to get close.

Three or four minutes later, as the sound of the xun (a type of ancient Chinese wind instrument) stopped, Bai Suwei stood up and suggested, somewhat disappointed, "Let's go back."

Although Lin Yu was somewhat disappointed that he didn't find the White Tiger, the trip was still worthwhile.

One galactic vein, two bounties.

The total far exceeded Lin Yu's expectations.

He stood up, ready to leave.

Just then.

Little Blue rushed to the front of the bloodstone, and used her two horns to lift it up and toss it into the air.

Then a bolt of lightning struck the bloodstone.

The bloodstone seemed to be held back by Xiao Lan's lightning energy, and instead of falling, it was strangely suspended in mid-air.

"Little Blue." Seeing this, Lin Yu roared.

He knew that the bloodstone was probably quite valuable, and he was thinking of going out and coming back to retrieve it, as it would be inappropriate to take action directly in front of them.

"It's nothing," Bai Suwei interrupted Lin Yu. "It's just a rock."

Just then.

It was as if the bloodstone had absorbed enough energy, and it instantly lit up, emitting a faint red glow.
