Live Strong in the Wilderness

"One-time use, that’s kind of a rip-off." Xu Yi hadn’t expected that it could only be used once.

He naturally knew that Telekinesis could not be absorbed.

To be able to use it like this was already an unexpected delight.

"One-time use is good; at least it gives us a way to deal with the Fierce Beast. Xu Yi, your contribution is huge and should be remembered by us all," a challenger said excitedly. Originally, he was planning to give up and leave.

"Although it’s hard to obtain, we can still get it, right? The Desert, yes, we can hunt those Fierce Beasts in the desert, don’t they have the Brain Crystals?" Another challenger had a flash of inspiration and set his sights on the Fierce Beasts in the desert.

"By the way, does that Killing Melon have a Brain Crystal? Has anyone seen it, who has it now?" A challenger curiously asked, thinking that plants might be easier to obtain.

"I have it, this thing right here." Saying this, someone raised their hand.

The Brain Crystal is not large, about the size of a fifty-cent coin.

"When using it, you just need to inject your Telekinesis into it. If not used, the Telekinesis inside should last a significant amount of time," Xu Yi explained.

"This Brain Crystal can definitely become our currency. After all, we all need to trade, right? Compared to other things, we need this Brain Crystal more. From what we’ve just seen, one Brain Crystal should be able to kill several Fierce Beasts, right?" Jerry said excitedly. He had been thinking about establishing a currency system, allowing transactions with other challengers.

This Brain Crystal is a natural currency!

After all, everyone needs it.

"Indeed, it can serve as currency. Compared to other things, this Brain Crystal holds greater value. We can also use it to research weapons, like invent a Telekinesis Gun similar to the Thunder Strike Gun," Qin Fan agreed wholeheartedly. If Jerry hadn’t spoken so quickly, he would have suggested making this Brain Crystal a currency too.

The person who took the Killing Melon’s Brain Crystal didn’t receive any objections from others.

After all, at the beginning, no one knew about the Brain Crystal or its purpose.

"Xu Yi, can humans grow Brain Crystals?" A challenger asked curiously. After all, if even plants have them, could humans have them too?

"Probably not, at least mine doesn’t." Xu Yi truly couldn’t be certain; maybe over time, it could grow.

"Alright, now everyone can continue searching for water sources," Xu Yi said, clapping his hands before returning to his team.

Knowing the existence and function of the Brain Crystal, everyone indeed felt hopeful again.

At this moment, in the camp of the eliminated, a dozen eliminated participants gathered, deeply regretting their decision to give up.

"Did Xu Yi discover the Brain Crystal a long time ago, or did he just find it?" One eliminator said in distress, feeling like if Xu Yi had announced it earlier, he wouldn’t have given up.

Although he had been bitten by a Fierce Beast, it wasn’t fatal, and within a few days he should have recovered. After giving up, it would take at least a month to recover normally.

He regretted giving up even more; if he were still on Spirit Blue Star, he would be alive and well, not stuck here in a wheelchair, unable to stand.

"He probably just discovered it. He’s only recently awakened his Spiritual Power, and discovering this significant news is already impressive," another eliminator said.

"I really wish time would pass quickly. By the 200th day, we can return. Upon returning, even the Telekinesis disappears, it’s frustrating," said one who gave up yesterday, who had already awakened Telekinesis. But upon returning, he found his Telekinesis gone.

"Regret for not giving up will last for a moment, but giving up will bring a lifetime of regret," another participant who gave up yesterday said, full of regret.

"We should consider what to bring back. Since Brain Crystals have become currency, we could use goods to exchange for it."

The emergence of the Brain Crystal affected not just challengers on Spirit Blue Star, but also eliminators and various national alliances.

Natural currency differs from issued currency, prompting them to draft some plans to respond to the Brain Crystal’s appearance.

However, these matters are unrelated to Xu Yi and his team.

Currently, the most urgent matter for them is finding water sources and suitable places to establish a camp.

"Xu Yi, are there differences in the strength of Brain Crystals?" Su Yan approached Xu Yi and asked curiously.

She thought she’d understood Xu Yi well enough, having watched his livestream for so long.

But now she realized her confidence was laughable.

Xu Yi had said a few days ago that he awakened his Spiritual Power within fifty days of joining the livestream. Even the organizers are finding it out only recently.

She didn’t understand Xu Yi at all.

She was only aware of the situations Xu Yi showed. No one knew what he hid.

However, she wanted to know.

"I’m not sure; I’ve seen few Brain Crystals. But I feel there might be differences." Xu Yi only possessed Spiritual Power, not an x-ray vision to see through everything.

"When we obtain Brain Crystals in the future, can I research them?" Su Yan asked with curiosity, believing that if she could unlock its secrets, it might enhance human Telekinesis rapidly.

Using Brain Crystals always involves external aid. To truly become stronger, one must strengthen their own capabilities.

"Of course you can." Xu Yi smiled slightly, seeing it as a good thing, especially since Su Yan was a brain surgeon, possibly discovering something special.

Letting everyone progress cannot be achieved by him alone.

"Water! I hear the sound of water." One challenger exclaimed excitedly and dashed off quickly.

Many challengers followed suit.

Did they really find water?

Xu Yi felt some doubt and sped up with the others.

But he soon heard cries of pain.

It wasn’t water at all but the sound of Fierce Beasts, misleading them into thinking it was water.

Moreover, there weren’t just one or two; there were six Fierce Beasts in total.

One challenger had an arm bitten off, trying to escape.

The others hurriedly rushed forward.

"Brain Crystal, where’s the one with the Brain Crystal? Hurry up and act!" Someone shouted from the crowd.

Dealing with one Fierce Beast left them struggling; now there were six, posing a significant crisis to the challengers.
