Chapter 156: Deeper Into The Depths [3]

He had predicted earlier that there would be a Nether crystal somewhere since the atmospheric concentrations of Aether and Nether should be roughly equal.

However, the process would be far more straightforward with this crystal in his hands.

Lillianna looked at the crystal in Arvell's hand with curiosity.
