Chapter 855: Legendary Quality Water Condensation Stone
King Whirlcloud Yashade's massive body froze, and even the mist-like currents around it stopped flowing.
After a few seconds, it finally regained its composure.
The first thing Yashade did was to rush to Su Yu and examine the authenticity of the [Core of Sand King].
Su Yu remained calm and casually tossed the core, which was as large as a water vat, onto the ground, allowing Yashade to inspect it.
The other elemental beings in the grand hall were eager to see what was happening but dared not approach, fearing they might disturb their emperor.
So they stayed in place, exchanging glances of shock and excitement.
...
King Whirlcloud carefully examined the core of Sand King, observing the patterns of the flowing sand within. The entire inspection took several minutes.
After the inspection, Yashade concluded: This is indeed the core of Sand King, genuine and without a doubt.
Despite still struggling to believe that Sand King had truly fallen, the core lying before it offered no evidence of being a fake.
Seeing that the emperor had finished his examination, the other elemental beings froze, waiting for the verdict.
Yashade scanned the gathered subjects and solemnly announced, "Based on my investigation, this is 100% the core of Sand King! It seems Sand King has indeed fallen, and it was at the hands of this interdimensional adventurer."
The grand hall erupted into chaos at the emperor's words:
"My goodness, it's actually true!"
"Sand King was so powerful and invincible... I can't believe he died so easily."
"To kill Sand King, this interdimensional adventurer must be incredibly strong!"
"No wonder Sand Kingdom has made no further moves in the past five days after securing the Wind Path. It's because Sand King has fallen."
"Does this mean we've won the war? Should we invade Sand Kingdom and divide its lands?"
...
The elemental beings around were in a frenzy, each one more excited than the last.
King Whirlcloud Yashade ignored the commotion among his subjects and asked Su Yu in a gentle tone, "Adventurer, Sand King was one of the strongest at the peak of the seventh stage, and Sand City was impregnable. If Sand King had chosen to defend the city, even a common god-tier powerhouse would find it difficult to defeat him. How did you manage to kill him and achieve such a remarkable feat?"
Su Yu smiled slightly at the question, "Is the emperor still doubting my ability to kill Sand King?"
"Of course not," Yashade hurriedly denied. "It's just that we are both at the peak of the seventh stage, and for you to accomplish such a feat is indeed astonishing. That's why I asked."
"Ha ha." Su Yu had no intention of hiding the truth and smiled calmly. "Since the emperor inquires, how can I disappoint? To be honest, I was able to kill Sand King because I had external assistance."
Su Yu reached into his backpack and pulled out a water-blue gemstone the size of a fist.
The gemstone's surface shimmered with a dazzling light, and a gel-like radiance could be seen flowing over its surface.
At the sight of the gemstone, all the elemental beings in the grand hall, except for King Whirlcloud, took several steps back in shock, and a few even fell to the ground.
Yashade was also taken aback, its form slightly unsteady.
In disbelief, it exclaimed, "A Legendary Quality Water Condensation Stone!"
"You actually have a Legendary-quality Water Condensation Stone! No wonder you were able to kill the Sand King!"
The Water Condensation Stone is a rare magical material found in the northern polar regions of the New World. It is extremely scarce, and high-quality stones are even rarer.
However, the Water Condensation Stone is the bane of the Sand Elementals. The freezing power within the stone can freeze the flowing sand inside a Sand Elemental's body, rendering them powerless.
A Legendary-quality Water Condensation Stone, even against a being as powerful as the Sand King, can significantly weaken its strength.
Su Yu smiled calmly and said, "This small piece of Legendary-quality Water Condensation Stone is what remained after I used it to defeat the Sand King. The original stone was twice the size of the Sand King's core."
"It was thanks to this special stone that I was able to successfully kill the Sand King."
"Oh, I see." Yashad finally understood.
Su Yu had a massive Water Condensation Stone, which was enough to reduce the Sand King's strength by several levels. No wonder he could achieve such a feat.
Su Yu continued to smile and said, "Besides the Water Condensation Stone, I also had an extra helper. Morning Star, come out and meet our guest."
With a wave of his hand, a small blue-white kitten covered in starlight appeared on the ground, sleeping peacefully.
"Meow? (What's going on?)" Morning Star looked around, confused.
Then, without a second thought, she jumped back into Su Yu's pet space and continued her nap.
...
Seeing the kitten Morning Star, not only Yashad but all the elemental beings in the hall now believed that the Sand King had truly fallen to Su Yu's hands.
My goodness, this adventurer's pet is also at the peak of the Seventh Rank?
A peak Seventh Rank Star Realm kitten, the adventurer himself, and a Legendary-quality Water Condensation Stone...
Sand King, you truly died a just death!
"Thank you, adventurer! Thank you for eliminating the vicious Sand King and saving the lives of the elements in Whirlwind City!" Yashad said warmly to Su Yu.
He was now 100% certain that the Sand King had died at Su Yu's hands, with no doubt whatsoever.
"You're welcome, King of Whirlwind." Su Yu replied calmly, "I also took this great risk for the Whirlwind Core. Now that the Sand King is dead, it's time for you to fulfill your promise, isn't it?"
Su Yu was clearly hinting that the two Whirlwind Cores he had been promised should now be handed over.
"Oh, of course. I'll have my subordinates fetch them right away."
Yashad turned to the Rock Elemental Gergen and said, "Gergen."
"Your command, Your Majesty!"
"Take two squads of elite guards, bearing my mark, to the core of the city to retrieve two Whirlwind Cores. Move quickly!" Yashad waved his hand, and a mark carrying his aura was imprinted on Gergen's forehead.
"Understood!" Gergen was now extremely excited, never imagining that the threat of annihilation would be resolved so easily!
Receiving the order, he did not dare to delay and immediately left the hall to carry out his mission.
...
The Whirlwind Core is the foundation of the entire Whirlwind City. Retrieving it requires a series of complex procedures.
Moreover, the Whirlwind Core is massive, and it would take at least three to four hours to bring it to Su Yu.
Thus, Su Yu decided to stay in the hall and wait.
