Chapter 220: Exploration and Harvest

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Yan walked out of Liu Lanqing’s tent with a heavy heart.

Jade Grade Unusual Items were even more precious than he had imagined!

The status and strength of the Jade Grade Noble Realm seemed to be greater than he had imagined.

That was true. Previously, when Liu Lanqing was in Ding’an City, none of the experts from the prefecture capital dared to provoke her. Only when Ling Shuangxue, who was also in the Jade Grade Noble Realm, arrived did she suppress her.

It was obvious that the strength of a Jade Grade Noble Realm expert was extraordinary.

“I wonder if there are any Jade Grade Unusual Items in such a huge area of the underground plain?”

Lin Yan didn’t go back to Ding’an City this time.

The reason why he was so curious about Jade Grade Unusual Items was mainly because he had a new breakthrough in his research of Force Features!

After three consecutive days of exhausting tens of thousands of clones, he had really succeeded in combining the Force Features of Wind and Thunder!

Of course, the main reason was that he could observe the operation of the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder at all times in the state of the Enlightenment Spiritual Light. He finally discovered that the core of balancing wind and lightning was not wind and lightning, but the Azure Dragon True Intent!

Hence, he continued to imitate it. Finally, through his own efforts, he comprehended a trace of the True Intent of the Azure Dragon and completely fused the wind and lightning into one, forming a brand new Force Feature.

He also named it the Azure Dragon Force Feature.

This Force Feature…

How should he put it?

It was ridiculously strong!

Lin Yan had previously deduced that there were a few Force Features that had probably reached the Jade Grade.

However, the clones that had mastered the Azure Dragon Force Feature could completely crush these clones!

It was completely stronger than the Jade Grade!

Lin Yan deliberately asked Liu Lanqing. She said that as far as she knew, the Force Features were only classified as the Jade Grade, Black Grade, and Yellow Grade.

What level was the Azure Dragon Force Feature?

If he could achieve this Force Feature, his strength would soar in a single step, and he would even be much stronger than Liu Lanqing.

However, the stronger the Force Feature, the more precious the Unusual Item needed.

If the Azure Dragon exceeded the Jade Grade, the value of the Unusual Item needed would very likely be even more precious than the Jade Grade Unusual Item.

“1 can only take it one step at a time. Perhaps 1 can find precious Unusual Items in the underground plains?”

Thinking of this, Lin Yan didn’t return to his tent.

With Issuer Liu endorsing him, he did not have to hide it.

He first prepared some dry rations and supplies. Then, he sensed the distribution of the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches in the underground waterway and plunged into the poisonous fog.

After Lin Yan entered the poisonous fog, a few people slowly walked out of the shadows and whispered.

“We’re just going to let him in?”

“What else can we do? Liu Lanqing has already spoken. Why don’t you tell her?”

“Hehe, so be it. He’s only at the Tough Realm. What can he do in there?”

“That’s true. The place where Unusual Items grow is filled with vicious and demon beasts. I heard that every Corpse Buddha Cockroach there has the strength of the Noble Realm. Even if he has some special abilities, how many can he kill?”

■I

Let’s go, let’s go. In five days, we’ll gather and go down to investigate!”

In the underground waterway, Lin Yan was familiar with it. He passed through the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches as if they were nothing. Before long, he arrived at the trumpet-shaped hole that the bronze bell Corpse Buddha Cockroach had knocked out.

His Mud Fruit clones remained not far from the trumpet-shaped hole because it was too slow to control their movements.

Carefully sticking his head out, Lin Yan saw four huge purple-black slugs that seemed to have been magnified a hundred times. They were lying motionless in the middle of the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s scattered limbs.

“How long has it been? It actually grew so big… Moreover, its color has turned purple-black, just like those real Mud Fruits. This is probably because after eating the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, they absorbed some of the pigment in the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s body, right?”

Lin Yan was also shocked by the appearance of this Mud Fruit clone. In just a few days, this Mud Fruit clone had grown from the size of a small rice grain to more than half a meter long and could swallow a person.

The surface was squirming, making one panic.

Walking to the side of a Mud Fruit clone, Lin Yan felt the connection and familiarity coming from its body and heaved a sigh of relief.

“This Mud Fruit clone is different from my clones… No, it should be said that the Mud Fruit itself is different from ordinary creatures.

“As long as it has enough food, its size can continue to grow until it reaches a limit. It’s probably the size of the Mud Fruit that I’ve seen before after it softened.”

An idea suddenly flashed across Lin Yan’s mind. The Mud Fruit could change from the mud state to a hammer-shaped fruit.

Could his clone do the same?

After trying to control it, Lin Yan roughly sensed that the Mud Fruit clone seemed to be able to transform into a hammer-shaped fruit.

However, this kind of operation was much more difficult than devouring and moving. It was probably comparable to casually pulling the Mud Fruit’s body into a membrane.

Looking at the four Mud Fruit clones that were nearly half a meter long, Lin Yan still couldn’t turn them into a membrane.

He could only extend his hand and insert it into the Mud Fruit’s body. Then, he slowly controlled the Mud Fruit and unfolded its adsorption feature, directly attaching it into his body!

A half-meter-long Mud Fruit clone was enough to cover his back and arms.

Then, he pulled up a Mud Fruit clone and stuck it to his chest, making it stick to his chest.

He slowly adjusted its position so that it covered most of his body.

In this way, it was made into a simple Mud Fruit Clone Armor that covered most of the back, chest, arms, and thighs, only revealing the lower part of the palm and calf.

If anyone saw Lin Yan’s current appearance, they would definitely be horrified. Two strange and huge soft creatures sandwiched him in the middle, only revealing his head and limbs. A fat purple-black blob protruded from both front and back.

However, Lin Yan felt that it was fine.

He tried to move. Although there were obstacles, it was still relatively smooth. However, the weight of the two Mud Fruit clones exceeded hundreds of kilograms. It was a little cumbersome and affected his speed.

“Next, I’ll try to see if the Mud Fruits can intimidate the Corpse Buddha Cockroach!”

Lin Yan casually lifted the remaining two Mud Fruit clones in his hand and searched for a while according to the perception of the clones. He found six to seven large Corpse Buddha Cockroaches that were not far away and carefully approached them.

As soon as they appeared, Lin Yan and the group of large Corpse Buddha Cockroaches paused.

In the next moment, without waiting for Lin Yan to move, the group of large Corpse Buddha Cockroaches clearly panicked. They ran away and quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest.

“There’s a chance!”

He found two more groups of Corpse Buddha Cockroaches to experiment on. The joy on Lin Yan’s face intensified. As long as the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches saw the Mud Fruit clones, they would immediately run!

They did not dare to stop at all!

“It’s obvious that unless they pick immature Mud Fruits, the Corpse Buddha Cockroach won’t easily provoke mature Mud Fruits. In other words, with this rough Mud Fruit ‘uniform’, there’s a high chance that 1 won’t have to worry about the threat of the Corpse Buddha Cockroach!”

The first thing he thought of was the poisonous lake in the middle of the plain.

Countless Corpse Buddha Cockroaches gathered at the edge of the poisonous lake. There might be many secrets in the lake.

He naturally wouldn’t go over immediately. Instead, he put down a Mud Fruit clone and drove it straight to the poisonous lake.

He would let it scout the way first. If it could indeed intimidate the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches and enter the edge of the poisonous lake, it would not be too late for him to go over.

He hadn’t forgotten the horrifyingly gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach that were more than ten floors tall. The Mud Fruit clone could intimidate ordinary Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, but it might not be able to scare it.

As for him, he could not be idle during this period of time.

There was no telling how many Mud Fruits were hidden in this underground forest!

They were all Unusual Items!

With this Mud Fruit clone armor, he could come and go as he pleased. He could completely plunder all the Unusual Items first!

Next, as Lin Yan controlled the Mud Fruit clone to approach the Mirror Lake, he carried another Mud Fruit clone and shuttled through the forest.

Occasionally, when he encountered a relatively small number of Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, Lin Yan would go up and throw the Mud Fruit clone in his hand into the air.

Unfortunately, the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s agility wasn’t slow. Other than scaring the Corpse Buddha Cockroach away, the Mud Fruit clone that was thrown like this couldn’t really pounce on it.

If he found the real Mud Fruit, Lin Yan would directly activate the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder and electrocute it into charcoal in no time. He would take out the corresponding Unusual Item bead and put it away.

It couldn’t be helped. His other attacks were not useful against this Mud Fruit at all. Even with the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder, he had to carefully control the lightning to prevent it from tearing apart the fruit.

He also took the opportunity to collect some fresh blood from the Mud Fruit and preserve it. He was prepared to create more Mud Fruit clones in the future. They might be useful.

Just like that, after carefully circling the forest for four to six hours, Lin Yan had already collected a total of 70 to 80 Unusual Items.

It was more than what they had collected last time.

The reason was that the Mud Fruit and the Corpse Buddha Cockroach were considered to have a special hunting relationship. The denser the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, the more Mud Fruits.

Correspondingly, the number of immature Mud Fruits decreased, almost invisible.

With so many Unusual Items, he could at least exchange them for one or two Black Grade Unusual Items, right?

One or two, and they were even Black Grade…

With this in mind, Lin Yan increasingly realized how precious Jade Grade Unusual Items were.

He had no choice but to continue collecting.

As he walked, Lin Yan suddenly paused and stopped to hide.

In the forest in front, a large number of Corpse Buddha Cockroaches were fighting with the Mud Fruit!
