After entering the world of cultivating immortals, I have been living and sleeping

If the Fish King was in its heyday, Ye Pianran would not dare to confront it head-on.

It's a pity that the Fish King is at the end of his strength at this time. On the other hand, she has just begun to develop her sword will, which is when her fighting spirit is in full swing, and her condition is improving steadily.

The enemy is weak and we are strong, the victory or defeat will be apparent on the paper.

After taking the Fish King's crystal core and erasing the traces of the battle here, Ye Pianran left with his sword and disappeared into the sky.

After flying a full three hundred miles, she slowed down, took out the four crystal nuclei she had obtained, and looked at them carefully.

The crystal core is completely clear and irregular in shape. The crystal core produced by the third-level monster is significantly different from that of the fourth-level monster. The higher the level, the larger the crystal core and the more solid the color.

At first glance, it looks like a demon pill.

But she knew that this was not a demon pill. It was a unique product in the secret realm of White Frost Valley. Its function was similar to counting points. The higher the score, the more advantage it would have in subsequent treasure hunts.

The color of the crystal core is directly related to the production area. For example, the four stingrays she killed came from the Bone-Eating Black Sea, so they had black crystal cores.

If it were a dense forest and swamp area, the crystal core would be green and the Great Light Palace would be yellow.

Regardless of the color, the points corresponding to the crystal nuclei of different grades are the same. For example, the first grade is one point, the second grade is ten points, the third grade is one hundred points... and so on.

As for the specific meanings represented by different colors, it is unknown.

According to senior sister Xie Mingyao, no one has been able to understand the secret behind the color of the crystal core after so many years since the secret realm of White Frost Valley was opened.

There is only one thing that is certain, that is, the different colors of the mechanism cannot be a decoration for no reason, but no one knows where the key to solving the puzzle is.

Keeping this matter secret for the time being, Ye Pianran held the crystal core produced by the Fish King in her hand and frowned slightly.

The crystal core of the fourth-order monster beast is basically more than twice that of the third-order monster beast, and is almost the size of an adult cultivator's fist. This can be confirmed from the comparison of the previous three crystal nuclei.

The crystal core of the Fish King is seven to eight times larger than this. It is heavy to start with and has low light transmittance. It will only show its clear side when the light source is sufficient.

This crystal core is obviously far beyond the fourth level, but it does not meet the fifth level standard.

What she is concerned about now is how many points this crystal core can be converted into, because the crystal core is not an empty shell with a superficial appearance. There is energy inside, and the number of points depends on this energy.

According to many years of experience in the past, the scores corresponding to crystal nuclei of the same grade are not fixed, but have a considerable floating space, and the higher the grade, the greater the fluctuation.

No matter what, she was in a good mood after entering the secret realm for less than a day and already had at least two thousand points in hand.

Ye Pianran played with the crystal core for a while, then put it away properly and continued to move in the direction of her choice.

The Bone-Eating Black Sea stretches as far as the eye can see, and no matter how detailed the topographic map is, it is of no use.

But the role of the topographic map is not only to indicate the direction, but also the small text notes next to it are also very important, indicating various abnormal conditions or precautions in the area.

One of them is that in the Black Sea, some strange whirlpools will be randomly generated on the sea surface. Once such vortexes are generated, all creatures within a hundred miles will be sucked into them. Whether it is a blessing or a curse all depends on luck.

When a strange vortex is about to be born, it is accompanied by some omens, which are mainly manifested as abnormal rolling of the sea surface, dimming of the light on the sea, sluggish spiritual power, etc.

Even before entering the secret realm, she had memorized the entire topographic map by heart, and was even more careful about abnormal situations outside so that she could turn around and run away at any time.

Another hundred miles of journey passed, and the black sea in front of him was still endless. Even though Ye Pianran was determined, she couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

She carefully observed the situation around her and planned to take a rest in the air to replenish her strength and relieve fatigue.

But unexpectedly, on the sea less than twenty miles behind her, strong winds and rough waves suddenly arose.

An extremely strong suction force erupted from the seabed, which was unknown how many thousands of miles deep below, and then formed a whirlpool in the sea, spreading upwards and disturbing the sea area within a radius of hundreds of miles.

When Ye Pianran noticed all this, it was too late.

It's not that she didn't react quickly enough, it's that she was right on top of this weird whirlpool and couldn't escape even if she wanted to.

And she really didn't expect that the so-called random generation turned out to be such a random method, which was no different from natural disasters. It was simply inevitable.

As for the various omens mentioned in the picture, they are indeed there, but the speed of diffusion is really unflattering. Basically, it can be said that people have been sucked in before the omens arrive.

Of course, talking about these now has no effect.

Ye Pianran, who was torn apart by the huge suction force, had no choice but to use the Green Devil Cauldron to protect herself and let the suction force take her away to an unknown place.

But this time, the Green Demon Cauldron no longer showed the same hardness and firmness as before. The whole cauldron shook continuously and even made a muffled sound like a crunch.

Of course she knew what this meant. The suction force of this vortex was so powerful that it was unimaginably destructive. Even the Green Demon Cauldron could not withstand it. I am afraid that not even the physical body of the Golden Core cultivator could withstand it.

Fortunately, this process was not long, it took about less than half a quarter of an hour. With a loud clang, the giant cauldron fell to the ground, and the suction outside gradually weakened until it was completely eliminated.

The crisis seemed to be over, but Ye Pianran did not take back the Green Devil Cauldron immediately. Instead, he kept rolling down and waited for half an hour, watching what would happen.

She observed the situation outside through her consciousness and found that the place was surrounded by stone walls and the passages were regular. It seemed that it was completely disconnected from the Black Sea, like an underground palace.

The underground palace was quiet, and nothing could be heard except her breathing.

Ye Pianran hesitated for a moment and decided to extend his spiritual consciousness for a further distance. If there was no result, he would continue to expand until it reaches the limit.

Just when she expanded for the third time, she really discovered something.

It was a prison-like room, with the chains hanging on the fence open, and a group of strange people inside.

These people have yellowish-green complexions, are skinny, and present an extremely unhealthy posture. Their hair is as messy as dead grass, and their faces cannot be seen clearly.

Somehow, when she saw these people, Ye Pianran felt a furry feeling in her heart.

After taking a closer look, the postures of this group of people slowly overlapped with the patterns recorded in an ancient book in her memory, which made her eyes widen.

Yes, these guys are not human!

Greenish in color, skinny and skeletal, with filthy hair and a foul odor.

She saw this in an ancient book about puppets. The book briefly introduced several types of puppets, and this sentence was mentioned in the chapter about corpse puppets.

Four out of three, there is no doubt that these strange people are corpse puppets!
