Chapter 647: The Appearance and Harvest of the Phillips Crystal (Part 2)
The residents and players of Danerluo Port looked up at the sky at the figure that seemed like a guardian deity, filled with awe and gratitude for Lis.
The storm caused by the meteor strike looked terrifying but was merely a shockwave without any special power.
Thus, with the support of the Floating City's magic power, Lis easily defended against it.
After the shockwave completely dissipated, Lis waved his hand, withdrawing the protective magic of Danerluo Port.
With a flash of his figure, Lis rushed toward the place where the meteor had fallen.
And as the players noticed Lis's figure disappearing, they realized the anomaly had ended.
They all became excited, and countless players rushed toward the direction where the meteor fell.
This unprecedented commotion must be related to the main storyline of version 3.0!
Lis ignored those players and headed straight toward where the Phillips Crystal had fallen.
The location of the Phillips Crystal's fall was on the west side of Danerluo Port, in that wilderness.
Lis had known the approximate location of the Phillips Crystal's fall, so he didn't expand Danerluo Port toward the west during its expansion.
Lis could block the aftereffects of the meteor's fall, but he didn't want to confront the Phillips Crystal's direct impact.
Soon, Lis arrived in the western wilderness.
Before Lis lay a massive crater, like a wound on the earth, deep and dark, with golden flames still stubbornly dancing within, seemingly the last ember of the meteor.
Scorching air rose from the crater, forming distorted heat waves that made it impossible for ordinary people to approach.
Even standing at a distance, one could feel the searing heat, as if standing beside a forge.
Under the high temperature and pressure of the meteor's fall, the sand around the crater had melted, forming translucent glaze after cooling.
These glazes took on various shapes, some resembling flowing streams, others like solidified waves, shining with enchanting luster.
They bore witness to the heart-stopping impact when the meteor fell.
In the center of the crater, an astonishing spectacle stood out.
A transparent crystal stone the size of a human head stood majestically in the deepest part of the crater, with scorching magma quietly flowing around it.
The shape of this crystal stone was extremely peculiar, its surface like shattered glass, covered with fine facets.
Each facet faintly reflected a golden light, like the most dazzling star in the night sky.
Despite the terrifying impact of the fall, the crystal stone showed no signs of damage as if it possessed extraordinary toughness and resilience, standing quietly in the crater, emanating a mysterious and timeless aura.
Gazing at this crystal stone in front of him, Lis was somewhat moved.
Exactly the same as in the previous life, this is the Phillips Crystal, capable of opening countless portals to other worlds!
Although the Phillips Crystal itself had no color, when gazing at the fractured facets, it seemed to reveal a gold star-filled night sky, extraordinarily peculiar.
While staring at the Phillips Crystal, Lis could sense the extremely subtle spatial fluctuations emanating from the crystal stone, slowly integrating into the surrounding space, as if becoming one with the surrounding world.
Hmm?
Lis suddenly realized something, his mind racing.
The Phillips Crystal in the previous life was incredibly miraculous, and it wasn't that no one entertained the idea of secretly taking it away.
However, the Phillips Crystal's unique space power made its body tightly integrated with the surrounding space.
Even if the space shattered, it could not be extracted.
Many legends and demigods tried, but all ended in failure.
Yet now, the Phillips Crystal before Lis... seems... still in the process of integrating with the surrounding space?
Is there a chance?!
Lis instantly became excited. The power and peculiarity of the Phillips Crystal were well-known, and even getting a small piece would be an invaluable treasure!
Opportunities must not be missed!
Lis did not hesitate at all. Instantly, a powerful burst of magic power converged into the sharpest space blade, slashing toward the Phillips Crystal.
Ding—
In a brief instant, a crisp buzzing sound was heard as Lis's space blade struck the slightly protruding part of the Phillips Crystal, disappearing upon contact.
However, Lis was not disappointed; instead, he became even more excited.
He could clearly see that a shallow mark was left on the Phillips Crystal.
This was something countless strong individuals in the previous life had not achieved.
Lis dared not slack off, pouring out terrifying magic power as if it cost nothing, continuously transforming into space blades, striking the previous mark.
Lis was well aware that once the Phillips Crystal became one with the surrounding space, he would completely lose his chance.
In just a few moments, Lis didn't know how many hundreds of space blades he unleashed.
Finally, just before the Phillips Crystal was about to completely integrate with the surrounding space, Lis heard the most delightful sound.
Ka—
Under Lis's space blade slash, a thumb-sized crystal stone completely separated from the Phillips Crystal.
Then it was retrieved by Lis into his hand.
Lis felt the warm, colorless crystal stone in his hand, feeling somewhat excited.
This is the Phillips Crystal, capable of connecting countless small worlds outside Gaia World!
Even though Lis only held a small piece, it was something that countless people in the previous life desired and could not obtain!
And after the Phillips Crystal completely integrated with the surrounding space, no one would ever be able to acquire such a unique treasure again.
No one knew how the Phillips Crystal was born; this was its first and only descent into Gaia World.

---------------
Tsk!
Lis looked at the prompt on the system panel, feeling a bit perplexed.
This was the first time he encountered an item without a tier and Xiao Guo's description.
Lis fiddled with the small piece of Phillips Crystal in his hand, then carefully stored it away.
For some reason, the Phillips Crystal couldn't be stored in the storage ring.
It might be due to the influence of the unique space power within.
But regardless, this piece of Phillips Crystal was Lis's biggest gain this time.
Lis felt that even this small piece of Phillips Crystal would eventually prove to be of great use!
"How is it?"
Morris appeared beside Lis, looking at the Phillips Crystal in the meteor crater, frowning slightly.
Is this what My Lord sensed could affect the entire world's turmoil?
It seems a few other meteorites have fallen, but... is this crystal the source of that turmoil?
Morris was somewhat uncertain.
After all, no matter how he observed, he couldn't find anything special about this crystal.
Apart from the horrifying scene when it just fell, it didn't seem any different now.
"There's an extremely unique space power on this crystal; I can feel the space around us changing."
Lis smiled; his recent actions of obtaining the Phillips Crystal were seen by Morris, but he didn't mind.
His current status and position were enough to deter those who were greedy.
Moreover, given Morris's wisdom, he surely wouldn't casually reveal this matter.
Otherwise, it would be tantamount to becoming Lis's enemy.
Moreover, Lis could feel that Joyce, Risa, Rosde, and Steven had also arrived nearby.
His confidence was quite strong now!
