Xu Feng was stunned: "There is something that has not decayed?"

Since entering this Yizhuang manor, Xu Feng discovered that all items that looked like spiritual equipment had become waste due to the serious loss of spiritual energy over a long period of time. Unexpectedly, he now had an unexpected gain.

Xu Feng picked up two crystals the size of a fingernail and took a look. Even before the properties appeared, Xu Feng had a very familiar feeling.

"Energy crystal core? What good luck!" Xu Feng showed a smile on his face.

After a few seconds, the properties of the crystal slowly emerged, and it was indeed as Xu Feng had guessed, it was an energy crystal core.

Energy crystal cores are a special kind of item that can appear in any level of secret realm, and there are many ways to obtain them, with no fixed rules to speak of.

Killing monsters may result in a drop of energy, while mining, gathering, logging, and any other actions in the secret realm may result in the acquisition of energy crystal cores, which can even be purchased directly with gold in some secret realm shops.

The biggest function of the energy crystal core is that it can directly increase the level of the secret realm apostles. Therefore, in many cases, the apostles use energy crystal cores as currency.

An ordinary secret realm apostle can obtain about 5% to 10% of the apostle experience after clearing a secret realm, and an energy crystal core can directly increase the apostle experience by 1%. In other words, if more than five energy crystal cores are used, it is equivalent to clearing a secret realm, which is still very cost-effective for the apostle.

Moreover, energy crystal cores are also divided into grades. The two transparent crystals that Xu Feng has obtained now are the lowest grade energy crystal cores, which can only improve the level of secret realm apostles below level two. If the level exceeds level two, these lowest grade energy crystal cores cannot be used.

In the previous life, the price of this kind of energy crystal core has always remained in a very stable range. A lowest-level energy crystal core is worth between 50,000 and 80,000. Many rich second-generation apostles, who are afraid of dying in the secret realm, like to buy this kind of energy core crystal to directly upgrade their level.

However, the secret realm apostle who was promoted using energy core crystals was just a show-off, with no skills or combat experience. In the eyes of other apostles, he was just a big human sandbag.

Putting the two energy core crystals into his pocket, Xu Feng continued to move forward.

These two energy core crystals are worth more than one hundred thousand, and Xu Feng is reluctant to use them himself.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng couldn't help but laugh at himself: "Back then, he didn't even care about the top-level Saint Crystals and used them whenever he wanted. But now he's reluctant to use even the lowest-level Energy Crystal Cores, haha!"

Xu Feng opened the personal attribute interface, took a look at the S-level talent, and once again deeply realized the truth that "money is the courage of a hero, and without money, a hero can only lack the courage."

After leaving the woods, Xu Feng soon arrived at a large house deep in the east courtyard. This house was the place with carved beams and painted buildings that he had seen hidden in the shade of the trees before.

The whole house is built with green bricks and tiles, and looks very imposing. The owner of this house must be extraordinary, as he could build such a luxurious house in the charity cemetery for people to live in.

It's a pity that this house has not been occupied or repaired for a long time. It is even more damaged than the main hall in front. There are even several big holes on the roof. The windows are in a mess, and the wooden door is so rotten that it seems like it can be blown down with a breath.

"After exploring this house, the exploration level should be 70% complete, right?" Xu Feng thought to himself.

There are three doors in this house, and it seems that there are three rooms.

Xu Feng first walked to the house on the far left and gently pushed open the tattered wooden door.

For a long time, nothing unusual happened.

Xu Feng walked into the house. The bright moonlight shone through the hole in the roof above his head. Looking around, he saw the corpse of a huge beast in the house.

From the bones, one cannot tell what kind of beast this is. But just by looking at the bones, one can feel how hideous and terrifying this beast was when it was alive. Its huge body and thick bones all show that this beast was extraordinary.

Xu Feng gently stroked the white bones and could still feel a slight tingling pain between his fingers, as if these bones were covered with sharp thorns. In fact, this skeleton was just much larger than that of an ordinary beast and the bones looked a little thicker, but there was no other difference.

"Is this... the corpse of a spiritual beast?" Xu Feng showed a look of surprise on his face.

It seems that this spirit beast starved to death here because its master left or died.

"Being able to have a spirit beast as a pet is in perfect harmony with this magnificent building. The owner of this house and the spirit beast must be very powerful!" Xu Feng thought to himself.

Looking at the skeleton of the spirit beast, Xu Feng showed a sad expression on his face, muttering to himself: "What a big loss, what a big loss!"

If such a spiritual beast skeleton could be taken out of the secret realm, there would definitely be many secret realm apostles fighting for it, and the price it was sold for would probably allow his S-level talent to rise by two or three levels.

A complete skeleton of a spirit beast is a good thing that even the third and fourth level secret realm apostles would covet. Unfortunately, Xu Feng is not yet at the second level and has not opened the storage package. It is impossible for him to take the skeleton of the spirit beast out with his own strength.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Clear the secret realm and find the secret realm core. As long as I master this single-player secret realm, everything inside will be mine..." Xu Feng took a deep breath and thought to himself, "It's just temporarily stored here. Sooner or later, I will take it to the real world and sell it!"

Xu Feng searched the room carefully again but found nothing else. Before leaving, he turned back and took a deep look at the spirit beast skeleton, as if he was looking at a pile of gold bars.

After leaving the room on the left where the spirit beast skeletons were stored, Xu Feng's eyes fell on the largest room in the middle.

This is a rectangular house, divided into several smaller rooms, including a living room, bedroom, dining room, and bathroom. Obviously, these are the rooms where the owner of the charity cemetery lives.

After a careful inspection, Xu Feng left the largest room somewhat disappointed. There were indeed some items in it that looked like spiritual weapons, but unfortunately, like most of the items he had seen before, the spiritual energy was completely lost and they had turned into a pile of garbage.

"I hope I can get something from the last room!" Xu Feng said to himself and walked towards the third room.

As soon as he entered the room, Xu Feng saw a cauldron more than one meter tall standing in the middle of the house. What surprised Xu Feng was that he found that the fire under the cauldron had not gone out and was still burning. At the same time, there seemed to be something inside the cauldron constantly hitting the cauldron, and every few minutes, a slight "dong dong" sound would be heard.

"This is... an alchemy furnace? There's a furnace of refined pills in it?" Xu Feng's face was full of surprise, and his whole body was shaking with excitement. "After such a long time, the pills haven't been damaged. The quality of this pill is at least that of a spiritual pill, or even a magic pill! Haha, I'm rich, I'm really rich this time!"
