At the moment the word "devour" was uttered,

the thick Source Crystal column that Lin Zichen's right hand was touching instantly transformed into strands of deep blue flowing light that surged into his body through the palm of his hand.

After that, the Origin Force split in two.

One path rushed into the deep recesses of his brain, becoming a part of his Sea of Consciousness, strengthening his spiritual power.

The other flowed through the veins throughout his body, nourishing every cell along the way and becoming Blood Qi Power.

At this moment, Lin Zichen clearly felt a substantial increase in both his Qi Blood Strength and Spiritual Strength.

His Biological Level upgraded from Epic Level One Great Perfection.

Just a little more increase in Qi Blood Strength and Spiritual Strength would advance his Biological Level to Epic Second Order.

The place he was in was filled with thick Source Crystal columns as far as the eye could see.

Just by devouring one Source Crystal column, his Qi Blood Strength and Spiritual Strength had greatly increased, nearly evolving one level up.

If he devoured all the Source Crystal columns here, who knew how many levels his Biological Level could evolve?

Thinking of this, Lin Zichen felt slightly excited.

"Lin Zi, you can absorb Source Crystals?"

Shen Qinghan asked with a hint of surprise, her clear peach-blossom eyes shimmering.

Lin Zichen explained, "The fierce beast that was crushed into a blood mist by your Palace of Water God, named a Source Devouring Beast, I devoured its Life Origin and acquired a Biometric Attribute called Devouring Source, allowing me to transform Source Crystals into my own Qi-Blood and Spirit."

"Amazing..."

Shen Qinghan's eyes were full of envy.

She truly admired him.

Lin Zichen possessed so many capabilities, each one alone had a mythical stature.

It really was special to the point of provoking divine envy.

After composing herself, Shen Qinghan curiously asked, "Lin Zi, how do you feel after devouring such a large Source Crystal?"

"Pretty good, my Biological Level went from just stepping through the threshold of the Epic First Order to Epic First Order Grand Perfection," Lin Zichen answered calmly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghan couldn't help but open her mouth slightly in surprise and said even more enviously, "Just by devouring one Source Crystal, you've advanced so much; if you devour all the Source Crystals here, how many levels could you evolve?"

Speaking of this, she became somewhat excited, "Quickly devour all the Source Crystals here, and see how many levels you can evolve!"

She was even more excited than Lin Zichen.

Lin Zichen did not waste time and quickly started devouring other Source Crystal columns.

1.

2.

3.

4.

5...

As more and more Source Crystal columns were devoured, Lin Zichen's Qi Blood Strength and Spiritual Strength soared continuously, and his Biological Level also evolved accordingly.

Epic Second Order.

Epic Third Order.

Epic Fourth Order.

Epic Fifth Order.

Epic Sixth Order.

When the last Source Crystal column was completely devoured,

Lin Zichen's Biological Level had evolved all the way from Epic First Order Great Perfection to Epic Sixth Order.

That was exactly one level higher than Shen Qinghan's Epic Fifth Order.

He was only one step away from becoming a High Order Epic creature.

Lin Zichen calmly stabilized his Qi-Blood and Spirit within his body and then seriously sensed his current physical condition.

Very strong.

Several magnitudes stronger than he was at Epic First Order.

In terms of multiples, at least ten thousand times stronger.

After all, he had evolved from Epic First Order to Epic Sixth Order, a total evolution of five levels.

Such a massive evolution, a large increase in strength is only reasonable.

"Lin Zi, what level have you evolved to?"

As Lin Zichen had devoured all the Source Crystals in the area, Shen Qinghan promptly asked eagerly.

With excitement still bubbling in his heart, Lin Zichen could not help but smile lightly, "Epic Sixth Order."

"Epic Sixth Order? That's so high!"

Shen Qinghan's face was filled with excitement, happy for Lin Zichen.

But her excitement didn't last long as she pouted her cherry lips slightly, feeling a bit speechless, "Wait, why is your Biological Level always just one level higher than mine? Are you doing this on purpose?"

Lin Zichen was speechless too, "No, can one even do that on purpose?"

"Definitely possible,"

Shen Qinghan explained logically, "With your incredible abilities, controlling your Biological Level seems quite normal."

Lin Zichen was truly speechless, "You're being too imaginative, you're wasting your talent not writing novels."

The two didn't chat for too long, just exchanged these few words, and soon started exploring this underwater space, looking for other spaces that might be filled with a large number of Source Crystals.

Qin Chuan, who had died, once told the equally deceased Bai Wubian and Shangguan Yuehua that there were other spaces full of Source Crystals within this relic.

Lin Zichen heard this and thought about searching around to see if he could find them.

Thus, he and Shen Qinghan searched the relic for a whole half month.

They searched every corner.

However, they came up empty, not spotting even a trace of a Source Crystal.

"Lin Zi, the City Lord must have been lying, this relic can't hold that many Source Crystals,"

Shen Qinghan slightly furrowed her brows, feeling a bit upset about wasting an entire half month.

Lin Zichen didn't feel it was a waste of time.

He thought that time was the least valuable cost.

To gain Evolution Resources, not wasting time was impossible.

In a person's life, not every action can yield rewards.

There will always be work done in vain.

Moreover, they did not come away empty-handed over the past half month.

It was just that they didn't find any Source Crystals.

They did manage to collect some Exotic Herbs,

and these were all of a high order, all Epic-level Exotic Herbs.
