Gu Xi and Ai Si caught up.
They found Flamescale and Zero standing in front of a wall, lost in thought.
Gu Xi followed their gaze to the wall and saw a totem of a gold coin creature faintly appearing on the wall.
She approached the totem and noticed that the eye area seemed to be slightly recessed, resembling a groove, and its shape and size were just similar to that of a gold coin.
Clearly, Flamescale and Zero Zero had been looking at this groove the whole time.
Gu Xi thought for a moment, took out a gold coin from her backpack, and put it into the slot.
The gold coin filled the dent perfectly, embedded tightly in the wall.
Just then, the wall suddenly trembled slightly, followed by a soft light that shone from around the totem and slowly spread out.
The eyes made of gold coins gradually melted into the totem, and the originally blurry biological totem gradually became clear and distinct.
This glowing totem, like a gluttonous beast, continuously devours the free energy in the surrounding space.
As energy continued to be injected, it began to shimmer with an extremely dazzling light.
The light burst forth like the sun breaking through the clouds, so bright that everyone (the fish) could barely open their eyes.
And the totem, enveloped in light, gradually detached itself from the wall.
It was enormous, about 3 meters tall, and just hovered quietly in mid-air, neither attacking nor reacting.
Seeing that it remained motionless, Gu Xi pondered a solution.
The totem creature could emerge from the wall because she placed a gold coin there. Does that mean you need a gold coin to make it move?
Although it was just a guess, Gu Xi decided to give it a try; perhaps giving it another gold coin would bring about a new change.
Gu Xi took out another gold coin from his backpack and slowly approached the totem.
Ais, Yanlin, and Lingling also kept a close eye on her movements.
Gu Xi held the gold coin to the totem's mouth. The totem moved slightly, as if it sensed the presence of the gold coin, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
After swallowing the gold coin, the totem seemed to be injected with new vitality, its light became brighter, and its huge body began to slowly sway.
Its eyes gleamed with golden light, as if it were waiting for instructions.
"Pfft! This is too outrageous! It actually eats gold coins!" Flame Scale's eyes widened in disbelief.
But Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief. "We humans have this saying about gold-devouring beasts. You should be glad that it can work by eating only one gold coin."
Upon hearing the name "Gold-devouring Beast," Yan Lin felt a pang of heartache and lost all desire to speak.
Gu Xi took a breath and looked at the totem creature again.
She tried giving commands.
"Help us get out of this space."
The totem creature swayed its body slightly, performed a set of stretching exercises, and then accelerated, running back and forth in circles in the space.
Gu Xi didn't disturb it, nor did she let other fish disturb it; instead, she let it roam freely.
After running two laps, the totem creature stopped, and then, without warning, it suddenly opened its mouth wide.
Energy was surging and surging within its mouth.
Everyone consciously moved away and waited for its next move.
The next moment, a surge of energy erupted from the totem's mouth.
In an instant, a powerful impact rushed towards us, and the air seemed to be squeezed by an invisible hand, emitting a sharp whistling sound.
Gu Xi felt her ears ringing from the shockwave and instinctively covered them with her hands. Ai Si immediately erected a thin ice wall to block the whistling impact.
Lingling was blown backward and was caught and pulled back by Yanlin.
The powerful energy shot straight towards the wall.
boom--
With a loud bang, the wall shattered under the impact of the powerful force, sending debris flying everywhere.
Behind the originally solid wall, a deep passage appeared before everyone's eyes.
