All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert

Lin Ruan naturally couldn't go back. She also wanted to go to the secret realm of Qingshuang Domain to take a look. It was a bit too shameless to say that she was picking up a bargain. With the system, her behavior could be more accurately described as stealing.

Lin Ruan looked at the entrance to the secret realm at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, feeling a little excited. It was a free purchase, and it was a hassle-free free purchase. Who wouldn't be excited?

She took a deep breath, letting the system disguise her. Instantly, her aura transformed, transforming into that of a mid-stage Spiritualization cultivator. This way, no unsightly cultivators would bother her and hinder her from making a fortune. Furthermore, this was the natural level of her spiritual awareness, so it wouldn't arouse suspicion from others.

She quietly followed Xu Luoning, walking at a leisurely pace. Xu Luoning seemed unaware of her presence and continued walking forward. When he looked around, he only glanced at her quickly and then looked away. Obviously, he did not recognize her.

Lin Ruan was secretly delighted. It seemed that her disguise was quite successful. However, she still did not dare to let her guard down and followed Xu Luoning carefully to avoid being discovered by him.

Meanwhile, Xu Luoning breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know why, but he still worried that Lin Ruan hadn't returned to the sect and had instead entered the secret realm on his own. However, once inside the secret realm, communication with the outside world was impossible, so he could only carefully observe the crowd huddled at the entrance a few steps before entering. Only after confirming that Lin Ruan was nowhere to be seen did he feel relieved.

Lin Ruan followed Xu Luoning into the entrance to the Qingshuang Territory's secret realm. The entrance wasn't a flat expanse, but rather a precipitous terrain. Towering ice walls on either side of the canyon served as natural barriers, preventing any cultivators from peering into the secret realm. On the ice walls, frost spirit stones shimmered with a faint glow, as if inlaid with countless gems, a breathtaking sight. Some of the frost spirit stones were captivated by white flames—these were the frost spirit flames.

The ground beneath Lin Ruan's feet was also made up of layers of ice. It looked flat, but it actually hid countless ice cracks. If one lost their footing, they could fall into the bottomless abyss.

However, most of the visitors were cultivators in the Spiritualization Stage, so this minor danger naturally couldn't stop them. In a flash, the only ones left at the entrance were cultivators below the Golden Core Stage and Lin Ruan.

Although they thought it was impossible for a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage to kill people and steal treasures at the entrance, the remaining cultivators still secretly raised their guard and looked at Lin Ruan vigilantly.

What is Lin Ruan doing? She is looking at a map.

The system generated a 3D map of the entire Qingshuang Territory before Lin Ruan's eyes, even thoughtfully marking the locations and grades of the treasures. There were immortal-grade, heavenly-grade, and even high-grade items, so why weren't there low-grade and mid-grade items? Because these two thieves wouldn't be interested.

It is true that birds of a feather flock together. The system that laughed at Lin Ruan for his interest in a few melons and dates in the interstellar era has now become greedy. If it can also cultivate into a human, I am afraid that the entire circular world will be wiped out like locusts before it can be absorbed.

"From high to low grades, start buying for free immediately. Act quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, and never hesitate. Hesitation will only lead to failure." The system encouraged Lin Ruan in his mind.

Lin Ruan flew towards the single red dot on the map. A vast icy lake appeared before him, its water a faint blue glow, breathtakingly beautiful. Several low-level cultivators were using magic to catch ice soul fish by the lake.

Ice Soul Fish are only found here. They are only at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, with a strong reproductive capacity. Eating them doesn't offer any special benefits, but they are delicious, and many restaurants sell them. Therefore, whenever the Qingshuang Territory secret realm opens, some low-level cultivators come here to catch them in order to earn spirit stones.

After all, one can make a fortune by keeping quiet. Lin Ruan hid her figure and quietly entered the lake. The lake water was icy cold, but it was comfortable for her who had ice spiritual roots.

No matter what, the highest level of cultivation that can enter is only the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Lin Ruan ate a transformation pill that Qingmu had refined for her, and with a thought, she turned into an ice soul fish and dived into the water.

The bottom of the water is covered with thick ice, and frost spirit stones are mixed in between the ice. However, frost spirit stones can be found everywhere, so there is no need to come to the bottom of this cold lake.

Lin Ruan quickly found the location. A few hundred feet below her, there were several fist-sized pieces of the immortal material - Shenhai Snow Silver - scattered around.

Although there are many exotic beasts guarding the natural treasures, the materials for refining are different after all. Even the exotic beasts can only eat a few of them, not to mention that Lin Ruan has the cheating plug-in of the system.

"Seventeen, watch your surroundings." Lin Ruan calmly controlled the expansion of the space, covering the entire lake bottom for hundreds of feet, and then used his mind to collect all the covered Shenhai Snow Silver into the space.

It's not that she was greedy and wanted to wipe out the species, it's just that there were still a few pieces below the coverage area, and she only got about ten pieces.

After acquiring the Sea-Sinking Snow Silver, Lin Ruan estimated the time for the Transformation Pill and began to swim toward the surface. As he passed by, he also collected a number of Ice Soul Fish into the space, his main point being that a thief never leaves empty-handed. The system had previously dug numerous ponds of varying sizes beside the river, stocked with various fish, shrimp, and crabs. Lin Ruan selected an empty pond and placed a few high-grade Frost Spirit Stones inside to act as a refrigerator. The Ice Soul Fish were a little dazed upon entering, but then began to swim happily.

Lin Ruan left without alerting anyone, and then headed towards a pale pink location that indicated a Heavenly Grade. This location was at the innermost part of the secret realm. As Lin Ruan continued to go deeper, the cultivators he encountered gradually became more advanced. Before he even reached the location, he was surrounded by cultivators in the late stage of the Spiritualization Realm.

Lin Ruan was not arrogant. Not only did she let the system help her hide her body, she also took the Qi-hiding pill in the Qiankun Ring and wore all the magic weapons that could hide her body and breath, playing a cautious role.

It is no secret that there are top-grade materials in Youhan Bingyuan. It is precisely because some people have obtained top-grade materials here that so many gods come here.

After all, immortal items only exist in legends, but there are indeed treasures of heavenly quality here.

The Phantom Ice Abyss lay beneath the innermost icy cliffs of the secret realm. Hiding at the edge, Lin Ruan watched as three or five late-stage Spiritualization cultivators would occasionally leap down. Looking down, all he could see was a vast expanse of white mist. This mist not only blocked sound but also the penetration of spiritual consciousness. It obscured the countless ice ghosts within the Ice Abyss, ranging in level from Foundation Establishment to the late Void Refinement stage, leaving only a tranquil and peaceful scene above the ice cliff.

Lin Ruan didn't dare use a teleportation button. Even at the Spiritual Transformation stage, she could still feel the spatial fluctuations caused by teleportation. She could only be cautious and fearless, like everyone else, jumping from the icy cliff with her eyes closed.

In order not to expose themselves, she and the system had to carefully control the direction of falling to avoid hitting others.

After finally reaching the bottom of the ice abyss, Lin Ruan became more careful and moved towards the marked position little by little. After finally moving to the position, he didn't even dare to breathe easily.

The Cold Ice Abyss is like a huge prison in the world of immortal cultivation, where only man-eating ice ghosts are imprisoned. These ice ghosts are particularly sensitive to the breath of living people.

Lin Ruan didn't dare to cover the entire Ice Abyss with his space as he had in the Ice Lake. Instead, he quietly extended a piece toward the clear water and cold gold, like a gold miner. After collecting this piece, he extended another piece to collect another piece. It sounded simple, but Lin Ruan only collected five or six pieces, which took him two hours.

Lin Run didn't care how much he gained. There were constant screams and wails from ice ghosts and monks around him. Lin Run was afraid that he would be hit by a spell if he was not careful, so he used the teleport button to teleport himself to a quiet place halfway.

Although this spatial fluctuation was noticed by others, it did not attract any attention. After all, there were too many ice ghosts, and some cultivators used teleportation talismans to escape when they saw that they could not defeat them.

Lin Ruan finally breathed a sigh of relief after putting away the teleportation button she had hidden there. She had many teleportation talismans in her ring, but this fixed-point teleportation method was more reassuring.

The rest of the time was used to collect top-grade treasures, such as Snow Bone Ginseng, Snow Jade Grass, Cold Water Iron, and Frost Spirit Stone. Lin Ruan collected half of them and put them into the space, transplanted the spiritual medicines into his own fields, and sorted all the materials into different categories and put them into the space button.

Four or five days passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Ruan finally thought: "Seventeen, where is my second brother?"
