Chapter 252: Elemental Shellfish

Lin Yuan’s voice echoed in a calm manner. “Earlier on, you mentioned that your Gao family tried to nurture this mutated Island Whale. Then your Gao family must have the Elemental Shellfish, right?”

As soon as Lin Yuan’s voice faded, Gao Feng’s originally nervous expression immediately turned serious. He was currently weighing the value of the Elemental Shellfish and the Bronze/Epic Yellow Spring Lily.

Even if the Yellow Spring Lily was the support-type fey that Gao Feng dreamed of having, Gao Feng didn’t know if he should accept Lin Yuan’s condition. Gao Feng knew that since Lin Yuan offered to make a trade with the Elemental Shellfish, it was obvious that Lin Yuan had already made his decision.

If Gao Feng didn’t agree to trade with the Elemental Shellfish, then it was highly possible that he might lose this Bronze/Epic Yellow Spring Lily. However, the Elemental Shellfish was something that even a direct line descendant like him couldn’t decide on his own.

Gao Feng pondered for a moment before replying, “Brother, you want the Elemental Shellfish to nurture the Island Whale yourself? The cost and resources required to nurture the Island Whale and Elemental Shellfish isn’t a small sum.”

Lin Yuan didn’t try to hide and nodded. “Since I decided to trade for this mutated Island Whale, I naturally want to try.”

While Gao Feng looked at this crystal egg containing the mutated Island Whale, his eyelids were constantly twitching. He clearly knew how many resources this mutated Island Whale had cost the Gao family. It was simply a bottomless hole.

If the Gao family couldn’t make any progress after trying to nurture this mutated Island Whale for such a long time, Gao Feng didn’t think that Lin Yuan would be able to hatch this mutated Island Whale.

However, Gao Feng noticed Lin Yuan’s determined expression earlier and didn’t know how to persuade him. When Lin Yuan looks for a Creation Master to concoct the spirit fluid to nurture this mutated Island Whale, he will probably back out from this difficult situation.

As for the Elemental Shellfish, Gao Feng hesitated and extended four fingers. “If you wish to trade with the Elemental Shellfish, I cannot even provide one adult Elemental Shellfish. I can only provide four infant-stage Elemental Shellfish that are still dormant.”

Lin Yuan contemplated and shook his head. “Isn’t Brother Gao too petty to only provide four dormant, infant Elemental Shellfish? This is a Bronze/Epic Yellow Spring Lily. If Brother Gao misses it, you will not be able to find it anywhere else.”

Lin Yuan heard that it was a must to use the elemental pearls produced by the Elemental Shellfish to nurture the Island Whale. He had learned of this when he had been having the question and answer sessions with the Moon Empress.

Lin Yuan had felt that it was rather interesting and noted it down. He didn’t expect that he would actually be able to obtain a mutated Island Whale, the Floating Island Whale.

Lin Yuan knew that if he could trade for four dormant, infant Elemental Shellfish, it would already be very suitable for him. However, since he was trading such precious feys with Gao Feng, he must still raise the price a little.

Gao Feng responded seriously, “Brother, if you didn’t bring out this Bronze/Epic Yellow Spring Lily that I cannot refuse, I wouldn’t even agree to trade the Elemental Shellfish.

“Our Gao family has been working hard in the past few years to expand toward the sea region and sacrificed plenty of king-class experts. However, after so many years of hard work, we have only accumulated 15 Elemental Shellfish. The four infant Elemental Shellfish are the four remaining infant Elemental Shellfish that the Gao family possesses.

“Brother Lin, if you really think that four infant Elemental Shellfish aren’t enough, why don’t I add on 5,000,000 Radiance dollars?”

Gao Feng’s words made Lin Yuan recall the private auction that Lightning Sparrow King’s king-class team had hosted. When trying to trade for the source-type lifeform, Hurricane Owlet Moth, Gao Feng had also said similar things.

It was obvious that Gao Feng was interested in this Yellow Spring Lily. Otherwise, he wouldn’t show such a wronged expression and add on 5,000,000 Radiance dollars to see if he could reach a deal.

Lin Yuan knew about the Elemental Shellfish, and it was indeed abnormally valuable. It was only able to grow in the deep sea, which had a highly concentrated spirit qi. However, places with highly concentrated spirit qi were places where a huge number of powerful ocean feys resided.

The Elemental Shellfish was a fey that had an extreme demand for spirit qi concentration, and it was rather similar to Liu Jie’s Insect Queen. However, the Insect Queen only required a high concentration of spirit qi to recover its damaged roots, to evolve, or to upgrade its quality. But for the Elemental Shellfish, if it didn’t reside in environments with a high concentration of spirit qi, it would perish after a period of time.

Therefore, for other factions, in order to let the Elemental Shellfish continue living healthily, at least a Class 3 Creation Master was required to care for it intently. All sorts of valuable spiritual ingredients were required to concoct spirit fluids that produced a high concentration of spirit qi, just for the Elemental Shellfish to continue living.

The nurturing of the Elemental Shellfish was a task that used an extreme amount of resources. As for the dormant, infant Elemental Shellfish, as long as they weren’t awakened with a high concentration of spirit qi, then the infant Elemental Shellfish would be able to survive in the dormant state for a very long time.

For Gao Feng to make the decision to offer four infant Elemental Shellfish, it was already a very gutsy resolve.

Lin Yuan said in a straightforward manner, “The meeting with Brother Gao seems to be fated. Why don’t I make a friend with Brother Gao? I accept the trade of these two Bronze/Epic Spirit Spring Lilies and Bronze/Epic Yellow Spring Lily with Brother Gao’s unhatched mutated Island Whale and four infant Elemental Shellfish.”

After saying that, Lin Yuan waved his hand and brought a piece of long black crystal out of the leaf-shaped fey storage box. The long black crystal immediately let out an ink-colored jade luster.

The piece of black crystal was none other than the jade-textured agarwood.

Earlier on, Lin Yuan had noticed that Gao Feng was delighted with the smell of the agarwood incense. Therefore, he simply gifted one to Gao Feng. Lin Yuan did this so that he could make a business friend out of Gao Feng. In the future, he would be able to trade with the Gao family with Gao Feng as the middle man, allowing him to obtain resources that couldn’t be found in the Rare Lifeform Pavilion.

During the era of the Spirit Qi Awakening, Radiance dollars might have a great purchasing ability, but there were some rare spiritual ingredients and feys that had strategic value and significance that couldn’t be measured with Radiance dollars.

The Elemental Shellfish was such a kind of fey.

In environments with high spirit qi concentration, the Elemental Shellfish would be able to produce elemental pearls. The elemental pearls would possess all sorts of pure elemental energy. The elemental energy within the elemental pearls would then be ready for feys to absorb completely.

In normal situations, when a fey consumed a spiritual ingredient, it would only be able to absorb a small amount of elemental energy. Even if the Creation Master concocted a spirit fluid with the spiritual ingredients, the fey would only be absorbed elemental energy that was just slightly more, making it an extreme waste.

It was similar to the situation when a fey absorbed spirit qi.

Even if it was a pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master concocting the spirit fluid to enhance a fey, the fey wouldn’t be able to absorb it completely.

However, Lin Yuan was able to use his body as a medium to transmute the spirit qi within the world and channel it into the fey, allowing the fey to absorb the spirit qi completely, 100%.

The elemental pearls and energy produced from the Elemental Shellfish had the same effects as Lin Yuan’s body and the spirit qi.

However, when Lin Yuan obtained the Elemental Shellfish, he would need to guide the Elemental Shellfish toward a mutation. Two of the infant Elemental Shellfish would be mutated using water-type spiritual ingredients, mutating them into the Aquamarine Elemental Shellfish. It would allow for elemental pearls with pure water elements.

The other two infant Elemental Shellfish would be mutated with qi-type spiritual ingredients, mutating them into Celestine Elemental Shellfish. They would be able to produce elemental pearls with pure qi elements.

As for highly concentrated spirit qi, Lin Yuan didn’t even have to worry as it was everywhere within the Spirit Lock spatial zone. The Aquamarine Elemental Shellfish and the Celestine Elemental Shellfish were the same as obtaining water and qi elemental pearls.

By then, if Lin Yuan wanted to nurture the Floating Island Whale, which was a dual type of qi and water, it wouldn’t be difficult at all.

Gao Feng was also a forthright person. As a direct line descendant of the Gao family, he had plenty of moments where he had to scheme. However, in Gao Feng’s heart, he had already treated Lin Yuan as a person of his same caliber and had the intention to make a friend.

Now that Lin Yuan brought out the precious jade-textured agarwood as a gift, Gao Feng couldn’t help feeling touched. He immediately took an ice-blue jade-textured box out of the flower-shaped fey storage box on his bracelet.

As soon as this ice-blue jade box was taken out, there was an instant rise of cold aura.
