The cave was very dry.

A snail crawled slowly on the wall of the cave, leaving a wet trail where it crawled. When she touched its antennae with her fingers, the snail retracted into its shell and stopped moving.

Yang Zanxing withdrew her hand, looked at the dark hole she was in, and sighed silently.

After working overtime for five consecutive days, she was exhausted. She bought a box lunch at the convenience store downstairs and fell asleep before she could eat it. When she woke up, she was in such a ghostly place. It was hard to express her feelings at the moment.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a huge black monster approaching from the water. She subconsciously pushed the girl beside her away, but she heard someone calling the girl’s name “Yunxin”, and maybe also her own name, “Miss Yang”.

She’s just an ordinary working-class person, so she’s not good enough to be called “Miss”.

She didn’t know how long she had been thinking there, until she saw the two words “Zanxing” on the jade pendant hung from her waistband. Yang Zanxing vaguely had a guess, perhaps, she had traveled through time and space, and transmigrated into a novel called “The Peak of Nine Heavens”, a cultivation novel.

Yang Zanxing usually worked conscientiously and honestly. Her only hobby was reading online novels.?Among them, Golden Finger Cultivation was her favorite. She could pass a lot of time reading a novel with ten to twenty million words.?In the last few years, she has read 50 to 100 novels on cultivation.?The plots were similar, nothing more than “30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, don’t bully the young and the poor”, “divorcing, face slapping, wasting wood, upgrading”. She could memorize the whole routine, although sometimes the plots could be mixed up.?The reason why she was so sure that this novel was “The Peak of Nine Heavens” was because of the name “Yang Zanxing”.

“Yang Zanxing” was the name of a female supporting character in “The Peak of Nine Heavens”, which had the same name as her. Unfortunately, this cannon fodder female supporting character was slapped to death by the male lead within seven chapters of her appearance.?From the beginning to the end, the description of the character was less than three chapters in total. She was only one of the stepping stones for the male lead to counterattack and slap.

What a tragedy.

If she remembered correctly, at this point in the original novel, the original “Miss Yang” was jealous of Liu Yunxin due to her fiancé, Wang Shao’s favor. She pushed Liu Yunxin into the water, intending to kill her.?In order to save Liu Yunxin, his childhood sweetheart, Mu Cengxiao jumped into the water and was sucked into the underwater cave by the demonic monster “Hu”, thus obtaining the golden finger secret treasure, upgrading and breaking through while underwater. He finally killed the demonic monster “Hu” and resurfaced to the ground.

The first thing Mu Cengxiao did when he returned above ground was to slap and kill “Miss Yang” who tried to assassinate Liu Yunxin, in front of everyone, thus forming a deadly feud with Wang Shao.?The “I’m the protagonist, I’m taking revenge and slapping face everywhere” mode was turned on.

Although the plot was old-fashioned, it was also well-founded and logical.?It’s just that Yang Zanxing, who had transmigrated, saw the demonic monster “Hu”, and at the very moment, subconsciously pushed Liu Yunxin aside, so she fell into the water herself, and was the unlucky one who got sucked into the cave by the monster energy.

Yang Zanxing stood up and looked around.?It was a very dark cave, with only a glimmer of light overhead, but the light seemed far away.?Yang Zanxing shouted twice, but the sound had not even reached halfway when it was like a flame being snuffed out by someone’s fingers and dissipated without a trace. There was no one around, not even an animal, except for a snail in its shell.?She pulled the snail off the cave wall and boldly walked forward for a while.

The ground was very soft, and when she scooped it up with her hands, it’s full of dry white sand, just like a desert.?She obviously fell into the water, but there was not a single drop of water in the underwater cave. This kind of unscientific thing can only happen in cultivation novels.?But… if this continues, she will die of thirst before she finds an exit, right??In the original novel, how did the male lead find the exit after getting the golden finger??Golden finger… yes, where was the golden finger? What about the golden finger that could be used to make villain cannon fodders cry?

Yang Zanxing had just thought of this when she suddenly felt pain in her fingertip.?She looked down, and with the faint light above her head, she could clearly see that the flower-shell snail which had just been held in her palm had crawled to her fingertip at some point, where a little red came out.

Bleeding??Yang Zanxing was stunned.

Even if a snail bit a person, it would not bleed. What kind of unscientific setting was this?

The next moment, the ground under her feet suddenly shook, and broken stones began to fall down from the cave wall. Yang Zanxing squatted down and covered her head. While trying to find a place to hide, she saw a strange burst of light emitted from her palm. The dazzling light was different from the light above her head. The light was blooming from the palm of her hand, making her feel as if she was being burned by fire for a moment.

The light was emitted from the flower shell snail.

The snail which was as big as a fingernail gradually became blurred, and in the soaring light, it gradually transformed into a transparent pearl. The pearl seemed to be alive, as the blood flowing from her finger was sucked into the pearl, dyeing the pearl a little red.

After an unknown amount of time, the vibration under her feet stopped, and the light dissipated.

Yang Zanxing stood still and looked at the red pearl in her palm.

The pearl was about the size of an eyeball, cold and like a glass bead. It looked red at first glance, but if looked closely, there was a cluster of flames burning in the transparent pearl.?The flames continued to burn, as if they would never go out.

“Xiao Yuan Pearl…” Yang Zanxing murmured.

In the original novel, this pearl was the designated golden finger of the male lead, Mu Cengxiao.?This Xiao Yuan Pearl was omnipotent. It could not only sense spiritual treasures, but also improve cultivation, shorten breakthrough time, and replenish health bars at critical times. It was a must-have artifact for ranking up.?It was because of this pearl that Mu Cengxiao, who was called a “trash” by others, got ahead at Taiyan Sect selection competition, and his cultivation level skyrocketed. He stole the limelight at the selection competition and shed his shame, thus entering Taiyan Sect and becoming a sect disciple.

Now, when Liu Yunxin was in danger, she was the one who saved the beauty, she was the one who fell into the water, she was the one who was dragged into the sand cave by the monster spirit, and she was the one who got the golden finger, Xiao Yuan Pearl.

“So,” Yang Zanxing pondered, “has the plot changed?”

As soon as she said these words, the Xiao Yuan Pearl in her hand suddenly turned into a puff of red smoke, and with a “whoosh”, it flew into her body.
