The pillar is very tall. Looking up, it is at least two people tall.

This pillar doesn't look like a tree. Its surface is smooth, like stone, and it doesn't have the wrinkles of tree bark.

At the top of this pillar, there are several stones and mud balls hanging.

Stones are slightly larger, and tiles are slightly smaller.

And underneath these fruits, there are a few hidden cuts that are slowly healing.

If you don't look carefully, you can't find it. It must be left after Sally picked the fruits.

The strange book did not respond and no danger was found around. After looking around, Gu Xing walked forward.

He first touched the pillar. Judging from the texture, it really didn't look like a dead tree.

But if you feel it carefully, you can feel the vitality surging within this pillar.

This vitality is connected to the depths of the earth, giving Gu Xing the urge to explore deep into its roots.

After all, in such a desolate secret realm, such a vibrant thing was born. It makes people know that something is wrong at first glance.

There must be some secret hidden under this dead tree.

However, Duan Jian's words made Gu Xing give up this idea.

"So this is where it is." He said, "No wonder this kind of fruit that can nourish the soul is born."

"What do you mean?" Gu Xing looked at him.

Broken Sword explained to him.

“This is the core of the secret realm.”

"Secret realms are usually independent spaces, different from the world we live in. They don't have complete laws, so they need a core to maintain the operation of the entire space."

"The core of this world is deep underground. It is a treasure that involves the soul. These fruits are probably formed because the core has been damaged and the energy inside has leaked."

"Treasure? Can I get it?" Gu Xing became interested.

"Okay, but the moment you get it, you'll probably die."

"Ok?"

"The location where the secret realm is located is mostly void. Without the core, the secret realm will collapse immediately, and void turbulence will be generated due to energy fluctuations. With your strength, if you fall into the void turbulence, you will probably die in the next moment."

Gu Xing really wanted to say that he had the ability to escape from the void, but after thinking about it, he decided there was no need to take the risk.

Moreover, once he really falls into the void, no one knows where he will end up. If he is far away from the real world, I guess even the Void Escape cannot bring him back.

So he could only shake his head regretfully and then set his eyes on the fruit hanging above the pillar.

At this time, a figure had already climbed up.

Gu Xing looked at the figure with a frown on his face.

Sally noticed Gu Xing's gaze, turned around and smiled, then continued to climb up, as if she didn't notice Gu Xing's complicated expression at all.

"Ugh!"

He could only sigh and wait quietly for Sally to pick all the fruits.

Sally's speed was not slow, just as she climbed up the pillar without making any noise.

After a while, she came down with her arms full of stone fruits.

Gu Xing looked up and saw that Sally had picked all the ripe stone fruits, but she had not touched any of the unripe Niwa.

At this moment, Sally looked at the fruit in her arms, feeling both happy and sad.

"Brother, there are only seven fruits, not enough to share." Sally pouted and looked at Gu Xing.

"Give me one less." said Gu Xing.

This thing is good, but he is afraid that if he eats too much, his realm will not be suppressed and he will break through directly.

"Ah?" Sally was slightly surprised, then smiled sweetly, "Okay."

After saying that, she began to distribute fruit to everyone.

After dividing it, everyone naturally takes it on their own.

Gu Xing also swallowed it up, skin and flesh included, just like before.

However, this time, the increase in consciousness was not that great. He just felt a boost in spirits, and there was no further reaction.

At this time, the broken sword, which was covered with liquid, also sighed.

"This fruit is really only effective the first time you take it. It won't have much effect afterwards. But it tastes good. Come on, Sally, apply the second one on me."

Sally sucked the fruit while smearing pulp on the broken sword.

But this was not the limit of her distraction. She even saw Chen Erniu swallow the fruit in a few bites and then threw another one into his stomach.

In this way, after Yijian and Yiniu finished eating the fruit,

She ran to Gu Xing again, pulled him aside and whispered to him.

"Brother, I'll give you half."

Gu Xing was stunned. He looked at Duan Jian and Chen Erniu who were pretending not to hear him not far away. He smiled and accepted it calmly without refusing.

"Row."

Taking the bitten fruit handed to him by Sally, Gu Xing looked at the small tooth mark in silence for a moment, then poured the juice inside into his mouth.

Savoring the delicious taste in his mouth, Gu Xing handed back most of the remaining fruit.

Sally smiled happily and ran to savor the food slowly.

Gu Xing watched her leave, carefully feeling the changes in his consciousness.

He was a little disappointed. Although the fruit was still delicious, the effect of enhancing the soul was minimal.

In fact, compared to continuing to eat the fruit, keeping it in exchange for money and resources is actually a better choice.

The fruit can strengthen the soul of a practitioner at the inner palace realm to the third or fifth level. Not to mention ordinary things, he can probably exchange it for several mid-grade magic weapons.

A mid-grade magic weapon is worth several mid-grade strange items.

Therefore, swallowing one fruit is almost equivalent to Gu Xing’s half a month’s work.

But this fruit is not just delicious. It not only stimulates the taste buds, but even Gu Xing feels that his soul can taste this flavor.

So, it’s not bad to satisfy your taste buds.

Gu Xing tried hard to defend himself in his heart.

And then, after a brief rest, Gu Xing decided to leave the secret realm.

The harvest of this trip was quite good.

The strange materials contributed by the fishmen, harpoons and shells.

The fruit enhances the strength of the soul.

An innate magic weapon.

There is also the last desire for oral pleasure.

Except for the last one, these things can make ordinary practitioners in the Inner Palace realm rich overnight.

Gu Xing also somewhat understood the mentality of those powerful wilderness hunters who risked their lives to go out on adventures.

The materials obtained from hunting monsters may be secondary. If you encounter a secret place or ruins, you may become rich overnight.

Becoming rich overnight is a scene that countless people yearn for, no matter in which world.

However, for the already wealthy Gu Xing, this gain was not very exciting. It could only be said that it was worth the price paid for this adventure.

Thinking of this, he came to the broken sword and expressed his intention to leave.

"Indeed, it is time to leave. The situation of this secret realm is not good. Even the core of the secret realm has been damaged. The secret realm itself may collapse at any time."

Broken Sword said, and then he talked about how to leave.

Similar to coming in, there is also a "door" at the exit of the secret realm.

As long as they pass through this door, they can go back to where they came from.
