Between frustration and delight, Gu Xi naturally chose the latter. She pocketed all the gold coins, acquiring a total of 23,779. It was undoubtedly the biggest bargain she'd ever found.
However, after collecting the gold coins, Gu Xi didn't plan to go back. She intended to continue forward.
However, her idea was opposed by Ais.
"Squeak!" (The area ahead cannot be explored by mental energy.)
Although Gu Xi wasn't sure what level Ai Si's mental power was, she had already sensed that this space would restrict mental power upon entering; her mental power could only probe a distance of less than 5 meters. Keep in mind that on the ocean, she could probe a range of thousands of meters.
From this perspective, Ais is quite impressive. He not only saw the gold coins here through the distorted space, but he could even penetrate space to enter this place.
The deeper one goes, the more intense the suppression of mental power becomes. Even Ai Si said that the range that his mental power cannot detect is generally where one should give up.
However, Gu Xi felt that since entering this space, although her mental power was suppressed, she had not encountered any danger.
For deep-sea creatures or sea beasts that rely on mental power, the fear of mental power being ineffective must be deeply ingrained in their souls; their instinct for survival in this world tells them that they cannot move forward.
But Gu Xi is different. As a human, she originally didn't have mental power. They were all given this ability after arriving in the new world. So the fear of not having mental power was just a matter of losing a skill for her.
The end of the passage was worth exploring.
Moreover, Ais's stubbornness made Gu Xi realize that the world might be restricting them from continuing. She could take advantage of the fact that humanity had not yet been fully synchronized with the world to see what was inside.
Gu Xi knew Yu Yu was worried about her, so she reassured him and told him to wait there. She then strode forward with determination.
If humans learn more about the world, their chances of survival will increase.
The deeper our understanding of the nature of humanity, the less likely we are to become lambs to the slaughter.
Gu Xi walked forward in the dark.
She walked very slowly.
Here, sight is taken away, and hearing is nothing but deathly silence...
She could only judge based on the tactile feedback from each step she took.
She walked step by step, and suddenly, she felt a shackle from her soul preventing her from going any further.
This feeling is probably the same feeling that had just bound Ais.
However, Mercury's integration with this world is not very high right now, so she still has a chance.
Gu Xi moved forward slowly and with difficulty.
Just when she thought this downward staircase would never end, a light suddenly illuminated the surrounding space and her world.
Although not much time had passed in the world, the time she experienced physiologically felt was incredibly long.
In the space ahead, there was a huge, rhomboid-shaped, deep blue energy crystal, half-floating in the air.
Like a moth drawn to a flame, Gu Xi felt she was like a moth, and that energy body was like the fire.
But she wasn't a moth; a strong sense of crisis made her stop in her tracks.
She couldn't use her mental powers here, but she could still access the space in her backpack. She easily took out a gold coin from the backpack and placed it near the blue energy crystal.
The gold coin landed without making a sound because it disappeared the instant it hit the ground.
Gu Xi took out another gold coin and pressed it onto the blue energy crystal.
This time, the blue energy crystal swallowed it whole.
