Ye Sisi quickly tilted her head back to dodge the oncoming attack, and only then could she see what was in front of her clearly.
She was attacked by a black monster resembling a tiger.
No, it's a legendary soul beast that exists between a spirit and a physical body, possessing countless treasures. This soul beast has blood-red eyes and a small golden dot between its brows.
Ye Sisi knew that the soul beast's fatal point was between its eyebrows. As long as she pierced the small golden dot between its eyebrows, the soul beast would die instantly and drop its treasure.
The slight annoyance that had just risen in her heart vanished instantly. Oh dear, she had actually arrived at the Soul Beast Tower. Well then, she wouldn't be polite about taking all the treasures here. It was just a pity that she was so close to seriously injuring Luo Jiuge again. What a lucky break for that guy.
However, she was also open-minded. Even if such a stubborn and unreasonable person could escape this time, there would always be a time when he couldn't escape it.
After defeating the soul beast in front of her and picking up the ore it dropped after its death, Ye Sisi tried to contact her senior brothers and sisters.
As expected, the communication jade tablet failed. She wasn't flustered, though. There probably weren't many people in the Cangjing realm who could cause the people of their Tianling Sect to suffer losses.
Just as she tossed the communication jade token back into her spatial ring, she felt a strong gust of wind coming from behind. Unperturbed, she turned to the side and gently thrust her right hand forward, piercing the soul beast behind her between the eyebrows without leaving a trace.
Another piece of Gengjin fell to the ground. Ye Sisi looked around. These two soul beasts were too weak, only at the Foundation Establishment stage. So the treasures that fell were just average.
Before she could walk along the boundless grassland, a dense army of soul beasts appeared before her, and they were all Golden Core stage soul beasts.
Her eyes lit up. She felt that the Soul Beast Tower was being incredibly kind to her; it was practically giving her money in a roundabout way.
She reached out and sent pebbles flying from all directions. The pebbles, following her thoughts, pieced together in the air to form small stone swords. When she felt that the quantity was about right and the momentum was just right, she pointed her finger slightly forward.
The small stone sword, enveloped by the Blazing Heaven Sword Intent, seemed to be reborn as it pierced into the horde of soul beasts. The sounds of it plunging into flesh, mixed with the howls of the soul beasts, made the originally tranquil grassland seem both lively and deadly.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the once menacing horde of soul beasts vanished, leaving behind a ground littered with glittering treasures.
Ye Sisi was overjoyed to see the spirit stones, pills, and magical artifacts on the ground. This Soul Beast Tower was practically a super version of a money-giving boy!
She ran forward happily, picked up a spirit stone and held it in her hand. To her surprise, she found that the spirit stones here were different from the ones she usually used. The spiritual energy inside was more than ten times richer than the spirit stones in her spatial ring.
She used to read fantasy novels and knew that spirit stones were divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. But after she transmigrated, everyone used the same spirit stones, and there was no distinction between grades.
However, based on her analysis of various ancient records, she concluded that the reason why the spirit stones were so limited was because Cangjing was too poor and therefore lacked better spirit stones. So, these cultivation resources were left behind by some seniors above, or rather, by some seniors, in order to help them advance faster.
Shaking off the thoughts that popped into her head, Ye Sisi happily cleaned up the battlefield. It was a pity that the hidden head wasn't there, otherwise she could have had another helper. But she was happy to pick up the loot herself, since it was all money.
The moment the items were put into the spatial ring, the environment in front of them changed drastically. The once lush green grassland instantly turned into a sea of fire, and the surrounding temperature soared several degrees.
She wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, she was quite happy. Come on, come on, the more soul beasts the better. The more you kill, the more you get, just like working in a factory in modern times where you're paid by the piece for tightening screws. But now it's easier and more comfortable to make money this way.
Standing in mid-air on her flying sword, Ye Sisi didn't see the next batch of soul beasts. Instead, she encountered a soul beast fire dragon surrounded by black flames.
The fire dragon was entirely black except for its red eyes. There was also a small golden dot between its two horns. Sensing its aura, it was a soul beast at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
With a roar, the black dragon unleashed a torrent of dragon broth towards Ye Sisi. Ye Sisi dodged it with a quick movement, the heat wave causing her hair and dress to flutter wildly, but her eyes were filled with excitement.
She composed herself slightly, sheathed Wuhen back into its scabbard, and then with a thud, pulled it out, a yellowish sword light accompanied by a piercing sword cry slicing through the sky.
She hadn't used the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique given to her by the Heavenly Dao for a long time. When she was in the early stage of the Golden Core realm, she would immediately collapse from exhaustion after using this sword. Now, she felt that she could still use a few more swords.
Unfortunately, the dragon wasn't very effective; it turned into specks of light and disappeared with a single sword strike, leaving behind a moon-white robe where it vanished.
Ye Sisi quickly reached out and the robe flew into her hand. It felt cool to the touch and the texture was quite good. It felt even better than the craftsmanship of a top-grade spiritual weapon, almost like a spiritual treasure without a spirit.
I happily put on the defensive robe I just received. It's not only of good quality but also very lightweight and comfortable. Hmm, it's really great.
Ye Sisi, who was ready to move on to the next map and continue fighting monsters, suddenly felt a blackout. When she came to her senses, she blinked and found that the surrounding environment was very familiar.
The array flags that hadn't been retrieved in time and the Heavenly Tribulation Missile that rolled to the ground told her that she had been thrown out by the Soul Beast Tower.
But... why is this happening? She only killed so few soul beasts, surely the Soul Beast Tower wouldn't be so stingy? Or did she offend the Soul Beast Tower?
Before she could think further, a calm male voice made her tense up: "You just entered the Soul Beast Tower?"
She subconsciously looked up and saw that the tall, thin man next to Liu Yun'er had somehow appeared not far away, playing with a jade flute in one hand and quietly watching her with the other hand behind his back.
She quietly exhaled and secretly stuck various talismans onto her body.
"Brother, you can scare people to death. Next time, make a sound before you speak."
Ignoring her feigned ignorance, the tall, thin man calmly repeated his previous question: "You've entered the Soul Beast Tower?"
Ye Sisi nodded, a smile on her face, showing no sign of timidity or hesitation just because the other party was a Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
Ye Sisi nodded vigorously: "Yes, I'm terrified."
In her heart, she thought, "What's there to be afraid of?" It wasn't that she wasn't afraid of death, but it wasn't so easy for a Nascent Soul cultivator to kill her. Besides, although this guy was cold and aloof, he was a genuinely good person.
Although she didn't know what kind of pills he was after that idiot Liu Yun'er, he was indeed a talented person. Maybe she should take advantage of the situation and poach him.
