Back in the lower realm, whether he was exploring Secret Realms or doing anything else, he could not trust the people around him.
He even had to get his magical artifacts ready in advance whenever he spotted something good.
Because he never knew when a fight would break out.
But when he was with Ying Huaixu, Ying Huaixu could not even be bothered to look at these things.
In the end, Chen Zhiyuan stopped standing on ceremony and took all the puppets.
With Chen Zhiyuan constantly breaking through formations, exploring this Secret Realm was extremely easy.
Soon, the two arrived at the central area.
"Click, click, click..."
Countless puppets began moving just as they reached the central area.
Ying Huaixu was about to act when Chen Zhiyuan waved him off.
"No need!"
Then Ying Huaixu saw Chen Zhiyuan toss out a Formation Disk.
The Formation Disk immediately activated, and lines of formation patterns enveloped the puppets.
All the puppets stopped working.
Even a giant puppet at the very center lost all its power.
Chen Zhiyuan looked somewhat excited.
"It's actually a Puppet Heart Seed!"
Chen Zhiyuan hurried over to the giant puppet and pulled a huge sphere out of its chest.
The sphere seemed to be made of bronze, with many formation patterns on its surface.
"Brother Ying, I have a use for this!"
Chen Zhiyuan looked at Ying Huaixu with a somewhat pleading expression.
Ying Huaixu simply waved a hand.
"Then take it. I have no use for it anyway."
Chen Zhiyuan nodded excitedly.
``` "Ding! Adventure Quest completed. Rewards: 5 million experience, one Ancient Demon Codex, and one drop of ancient demon blood essence!"
"Ancient Demon Codex: records the core principles of the Ancient Demon Clan's evolution."
"Ancient demon blood essence: an important material for Spirit Pet evolution."
