Chen Mo continued forward along the way he had come, taking out the inner core he had obtained and examining it.
This inspection left him somewhat frustrated. Although the inner core was also about the size of a pigeon egg, it felt somewhat different from the first one.
He immediately took the first inner core from his Universe Bag. Comparing the two revealed exactly where they differed. The first was slightly larger, while the second was a little smaller.
Of course, it was not much smaller, only as if it had shrunk by a single size. Still, the difference could be seen with the naked eye as long as there was something to compare it against.
Thinking about how the second inner core had been swallowed in turn by those Strange Beasts, their purpose had clearly been to evolve. So it was not strange that the second inner core was smaller. Though the swallowing process had been brief, it had still consumed some of the inner core. Every Strange Beast had used up a portion of it.
That was why the inner core he obtained looked slightly smaller.
Of course, it would not have much impact on using the inner core for making formations or anything else. So losing that little bit was nothing.
