“Waaa, how cool! It can turn big and small! It even has us on there!”
The Yu Qing students quickly learned how to use the new map . In actuality, this object was just like the smart devices of the technological world . Using touch-screen control, one could change the size of various parts, even marking on them . But, these ordinary functions were like magic to the Yu Qing students who had never before experienced such things .
More importantly, the sixteen drones would switch to observation mode after finishing the map . In this way, the movements of all things, including the workings of the students in the Five Sects, would all be reported on the Yu Qing students’ maps .
This was a cheat in the Closed Realm . With the help of the maps, there was really no mystery in this realm anymore . The Yu Qing students could see beforehand where there was danger, and avert it safely . The Yu Qing students could also see where there were benefits beforehand, and directly reach it with the fastest route .
After giving directions on how to use the maps, Ye Zan ended his call with Kong Qingyun . He had already gathered an army of mechanical soldiers at his side . These robots were not in the shape of humans, but rather, spiders . Among the mechanical soldiers, human-shaped ones were only suitable for camouflage; having fulfilled the needs in appearance . In the context of battling, however, they were really not as useful .
These mechanical spiders were not large . Each was only about half a meter tall . Their eight legs were sharpened like knives; even having razor-like fangs near their mouths . The spiders were powered by batteries from the technological world; enough to support their movement for a long period of time . Additionally, the spiders had used camouflage . From their appearance, they looked like enlarged spiders; ferocious and startling .
Sixty mechanical spiders spread out from where Ye Zan was, forming rings upon rings of protection . Although they were half a meter tall and not considered short, you could not see them unless you were looking for them .
This was not all . Immediately, the robots brought out two suitcases . These suitcases each held mechanical flies . They were each as small as a piece of rice, with the suitcases amounting to thousands in number . These mechanical flies were split into sensor and observation types . They could also collect information on his surroundings and analyze the air, earth, creatures, and plants around him .
After completing these tasks, Ye Zan was content with his own safety . Really, he has always been one to value his own life; one could even call him a bit cowardly . He never took his safety as a joke . After this level of protection, he did not believe that there was anything in this Closed Realm that could stage an attack on him .
Of course, Ye Zan was not reckless to the point of flying everywhere on his skateboard; that would be looking for a way to die . Sure, he was unafraid of sneak attacks, but that didn’t mean he was omnipotent in this realm . At most, he could see danger beforehand and avoid it .
“Now, the hunt begins!¨ In Ye Zan’s brain, a map had appeared . On it, the creatures around him were clearly marked . He could even scroll in to see what they looked like .

Ye Zan saw a pair of creatures a short distance away . According to what Yu Qing had told him, these creatures were called Ironback Teals; considered some of the more gentle creatures in the Closed Realm . However, the creatures were not to be underestimated, especially after being angered . Ordinary Refining State cultivators could only run when facing them one on one .
“Moo!”
The pair grazing Ironback Teals seemed to be very sensitive to danger, and raised their heads in that direction, letting out a warning cry .
With this cry, eighteen eight-legged creatures appeared from that direction . These creatures were unbothered by the Ironback Teal’s warnings and hopped onto their backs without a second of hesitation .
Obviously, these eight-legged creatures were Ye Zan’s mechanical spiders . Even though the Ironback Teals had backs of armor, they still could not hold against the attack of the spiders . Their claws were like knives, slicing through the backs of the cows like cutting through tofu .
In the blink of an eye, the pair of Ironback Teals let out a desolate cry and fell under the attack of the mechanical spiders .
After this was the bloodier process . The two Ironback Teals were each around two to three tons; really just two mountains of flesh . The mechanical spiders whirled their knives and proceeded to cut off the meat of the cows, piece by piece, sending them into Ye Zan’s open dimension .

The meat of the Ironback Teal was rather famous . Although it was not a top-notch resource, it was still nothing an ordinary cow could compare to . However, as the students exploring this realm had a limit on what they could carry, most only took with them the creatures Core, at most a bit of skin . No one would think of taking the meat .
Of course, Ye Zan was different . Even though he could not use the magical objects of this world, he still had his dimension . Furthermore, Ye Zan himself was a foodie . Seeing as this realm had meat better than that of his technological world, he naturally could not bear to waste it .
The two flesh mounds were quickly broken down, leaving only a pair of skeletons, some skin, and bodily fluid .
Ye Zan had already acquired the Cores of the two grass cows . The Cores let off the clean scent of grass . Although they were carved from the hearts of the two Ironback Teals, they still did not let off any odor of blood . Each Core was about the size of half a fist, fully green, and cool to the touch .
According to the information from Yu Qing, this type of Core must hold Wood Energy; a great ingredient for making pills and medicine . Additionally, Cores were also greatly important in making weapons, creating spiritual formations, mechanical techniques, etc . Of course, these two Cores were of the lowest quality and really could not pass as a treasure .
A robot came out of the dimension, holding a platter before Ye Zan . On it was a piece of freshly grilled steak . Getting his hands on such good ingredients was uncommon, and Ye Zan had to taste it while it was fresh, regardless of his surroundings .

There were many ways to prepare beef, but, in order to best taste the original flavor, a simple grilling was the best technique . He quickly organized the Cores, picked up the fork and knife on the platter, and cut himself a piece .
“Wu,” Even Ye Zan, who had long grown used to the flavor of the most delicious delicacies, could not bear but to let out a sigh of contentedness at this time .
This was different from the cuisine Ye Zan had had in the past . This steak’s uniqueness was not in its texture or flavor but in the spiritual energy stored in it .
In the technological world, delicacies triggered the taste buds and created a sense of satisfaction . There were even some research companies that created different seasonings through the research of these taste buds . Using these seasonings, they could make the most ordinary foods taste like top-notch cuisine .
But the spiritual energy in this beef was not something any ordinary seasoning could compare to . One could even say that it was like the most perfect seasoning . The steak in Ye Zan’s mouth held an unexplainable aroma . It did not trigger the taste buds but directly touched the soul; creating an unimaginable sense of delight .
As for the use of this beef, purely from the spiritual energy, it could not be comparable to a top-notch Refining Pill . But, this beef was better in that it did not include the risks of using pills: like poison . Additionally, it could also nourish the body, something a pill could not compare with .
“If only I could start a farm!” Ye Zan finally understood why all those Sects tried so hard to get their own private Realms . These Realms were truly too benefitting to a Sect .
