There were indeed quite a few people who shared the same thoughts as Gu Yuchuan, including human cultivators and demon beasts. However, after Gu Yuchuan appeared, they all took a few steps back at the same time. There was no other reason than that they could sense that Gu Yuchuan was stronger than them.

They suddenly went from being prepared to rob and kill others to being the ones who could be robbed and killed. After all, they had just come out of the trial space, and they also had the wealth they had obtained from it. Therefore, they were the targets of robbery. So when Gu Yuchuan came out with a strong killing intent, they all ran away in a swarm. They didn't kill him.

When Gu Yuchuan opened his eyes, he saw them running away. He didn't chase after them, since they had already run quite far, and it wouldn't be easy to catch up. He might even miss the people who had just come out, which wouldn't be worth it either way. So he chose to find a place to hide and continue waiting.

He hovered on a tree, activated his invisibility, closed his eyes to rest, and waited for the next lucky person to appear.

An hour later, the space in front of him changed, a ripple appeared, and then a toad appeared on the flat ground. Gu Yuchuan sighed. Oh well, they were all demons, and he couldn't lay a hand on them during wartime. The toad was very happy on the spot, obviously having gained something.

"What are you still doing there? Hurry up and leave." Gu Yuchuan reminded him, because he was really unhappy that he couldn't make a move against someone with wealth.

When the toad saw Gu Yuchuan break his invisibility, it understood what was going on. It took out a bright and beautiful herb from its pocket. Judging from its appearance, it was a second-grade medicinal herb, used to refine herbs for Foundation Establishment cultivators. It was quite precious.

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty. I will now depart. This herb is a gift for Your Majesty."

After saying that, he left the herbs and departed. He was still somewhat sensible; at least he knew that Gu Yuchuan had let him go because it was wartime and it wasn't a good time to take action. So, he wisely gave him some money. Not bad, as long as there was some reward.

After he left, Gu Yuchuan continued to wait. Half an hour later, another ripple appeared in front of him. He was very nervous and didn't dare to blink. Fortunately, the person in front of him was a middle-aged man. If he was human, it would be easy to kill him and take all his things.

This human seemed very experienced. The first thing he did upon emerging was to draw his longsword and carefully observe his surroundings for any danger. However, Gu Yuchuan was invisible, making him difficult for him to spot. After checking twice and finding no danger, he prepared to leave quickly.

However, it was at this moment that Gu Yuchuan launched his attack. He released three drops of Heavenly Profound Heavy Water, and by the time the opponent reacted, the water droplets had already hit him. Fortunately, he was able to activate his defensive magic weapon, a blue shield. However, the shield was shattered, but it allowed him to survive.

But that was all there was to it. Taking advantage of this time, Gu Yuchuan had already reached his side and tightly wrapped himself around him. Once prey was entangled by a python, there was no way to survive.

The opponent struggled and resisted, but Gu Yuchuan's physical body was beyond his ability to withstand. In the end, he died at Gu Yuchuan's hands, and the treasures he obtained from the trial space became Gu Yuchuan's.

This reminded Gu Yuchuan of the scene when he first entered this place in the simulator. At that time, his cultivation level was still low. He had just come out of the trial space when he was killed by Ningzhi, which made his hatred for Ningzhi even deeper.

He found the cultivator's storage bag, and upon opening it, he discovered that the most precious item inside was a Foundation Establishment Pill. He was overjoyed, realizing that the cultivator had simply been unlucky. With this Foundation Establishment Pill, he would have had a high probability of becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator upon returning to the Immortal Sect, thus changing his entire status. Unfortunately, he died here, and everything was in vain. This was the path of immortality, where danger lurked at any moment, even before one could soar to the heavens.

He absorbed the other's essence, then casually tossed the corpse aside and hid again, waiting for his next prey. This time, he waited much longer, more than an hour before another cultivator appeared—a woman who appeared to be from the Hundred Flowers Sect. Now, he had even more reasons to kill her.

This female cultivator seemed even weaker than the previous cultivator. She couldn't even withstand Gu Yuchuan's Heavenly Profound Heavy Water and died directly from his sneak attack. Gu Yuchuan checked her storage bag and, sure enough, there were only a few herbs. This girl must not have passed through many layers in the space, and her harvest was so poor.

He continued his raids there for a full day. In that day, he killed a total of thirteen cultivators, obtained four Foundation Establishment Pills, countless herbs and spirit stones. His wealth increased dramatically. He had already decided that he could sell some of his current number of Foundation Establishment Pills to exchange for cultivation materials. Now, his Foundation Establishment cultivation would no longer be a problem. Once he returned, he could prepare for his advancement.

He no longer intends to continue his killing spree here for two reasons. First, the frequency of people coming out is decreasing, suggesting that there are probably not many cultivators left inside. Second, he has another mission: to find the Dragon-Snake Fruit. This is a mission he promised the Serpent, and he must complete it without any delay. He has already wasted quite a bit of time, so he still needs to go and check on the Dragon-Snake Fruit.

Fortunately, he knew where the Dragon Serpent Fruit was. It was located in the middle of the secret realm, in a very secluded spot, which was why he didn't go there immediately. There were very few people there.

He spent half a day walking around the Dragon Serpent Fruit. The area was deserted; he hadn't seen a single cultivator for about an hour, indicating that there were very few cultivators here. With fewer people coming, the Dragon Serpent Fruit was naturally very safe.

After many twists and turns, he finally arrived at the vicinity of the Dragon Serpent Fruit, but his expression changed. There were signs of a fight nearby, indicating that a cultivator had fought with the guardian beast of the Dragon Serpent Fruit. As a result, the Dragon Serpent Fruit had been taken away. He quickly moved forward and walked to the vicinity of the Dragon Serpent Fruit. Sure enough, the fruit tree was bare, and his Dragon Serpent Fruit was gone.

His breathing became rapid; he was extremely angry. However, anger wouldn't solve anything. He calmed himself down and took deep breaths. The exit passage from the secret realm hadn't been opened yet, so there was still time. He couldn't rush things!
