Chen Xuan noticed a flicker of intense heat in Qing Xuan’s eyes as he looked at the white crystal jade.
Lu Sheng also observed Qing Xuan’s keen interest in the unique piece. He quickly regained his smile and said, "There are fourteen Forbidden Dao crystals in total. Aside from the Time Immunity crystal, which is slightly damaged, the others are near-perfect. However, before we distribute them, I must make it clear: even if you receive one, you cannot absorb or fuse with it immediately. These crystals have not yet fully matured; they will need at least a decade or two, perhaps even longer. As for this Time Immunity crystal, it will take even more time to gestate. The fact that it was hidden deep within the cliffside and didn't emerge on its own means it is far from reaching maturity—it will take tens of thousands of years at the very least."
Hearing Lu Sheng’s explanation, the group wore expressions of astonishment. It turned out that the crystals they had excavated could not be absorbed directly. The new recruits, whose desire for a crystal had been burning so fiercely, felt their enthusiasm cool slightly.
