CHAPTER 353: CHAPTER 353: YELLOW MUD ISLAND

"Is this the inside of the Daoist Mortar?" Chen Guan immediately realized what this place was.

However, it’s quite different from what Chen Guan imagined; the Daoist Mortar, only the size of a washbasin, unexpectedly held a whole starry sky, even though the space was so small, it had merely such a tiny Suspended Island.

Chen Guan looked around but couldn’t see anything special about this island, not even a single stone, only cracked Yellow Mud Land everywhere.

How on earth is this place cloned and replicated?

Chen Guan looked back and forth several times but still couldn’t understand the purpose of this place.

The Daoist Mortar did not respond to his questions, Chen Guan felt that the consciousness of the Daoist Mortar seemed very weak, unable to express more intents.

Chen Guan guessed that it might have been injured; after all, it was originally in a broken state.

From its intent, Chen Guan faintly felt a strong sense of fatigue, as if repeatedly telling him: "So tired... so sleepy... just want to sleep..."

"Rest in my body peacefully, leave everything else to me." Chen Guan quickly said.

Indeed, after Chen Guan finished saying this, the consciousness became even weaker, weaker and weaker, eventually almost undetectable, estimated to be completely in sleep.

Chen Guan glanced at the Yellow Mud Island, thinking to himself: "Could it be that this Yellow Mud Island is a treasure trove itself, possessing the ability to reap what you sow?"

Thinking of this, Chen Guan wanted to try it out, but he was just immersed in consciousness, not his physical body entering here, and he didn’t have anything on him.

"How can I bring things to this island? If I throw them into the basin from outside, could they reach this island?" Chen Guan’s mind moved, thinking of withdrawing his consciousness first, and then bringing in a Purple Feather Saber to try.

Who would have thought, as soon as his thought moved, a Purple Feather Saber appeared out of thin air within this Yellow Mud Land.

"It seems the contract has some use, the permissions are intact." Chen Guan rejoiced, planning to bury the Purple Feather Saber into the Yellow Mud Land to try.

"I have no body, how am I supposed to dig and bury the saber?" Chen Guan was again puzzled: "Can I let my body directly enter the inside of the Daoist Mortar?"

This time, Chen Guan’s body did not enter, but the Purple Feather Saber, following Chen Guan’s intent, got inserted into the Yellow Mud Land.

Unexpectedly, the yellow mud cracked according to Chen Guan’s intent, burying the Purple Feather Saber inside.

Chen Guan discovered that the yellow mud could actually move according to his will, feeling very magical.

It’s a pity that after burying the Purple Feather Saber, Chen Guan waited for a while, but didn’t find any reaction.

"That’s not right, it shouldn’t be used like this. When cloning Secret God Purple Profound earlier, it was always accomplished in an instant, shouldn’t be this slow."

Catching another thought, Chen Guan realized: "Is it because no one paid with their lifespan, hence unable to clone and replicate?"

He felt it was quite possible, also dared not bring too precious items to try, in case the Daoist Mortar really worked and absorbed his lifespan.

Even though currently unable to figure out how to use Yellow Mud Island, he thought of how to utilize it first.

The space within the Daoist Mortar can completely be used as a storage space, no longer needing to carry luggage and baggage while traveling, nor burdening pets anymore.

With permission from the Daoist Mortar, putting things inside won’t trigger the cloning and replicating function like others might experience.

He placed a few items inside first, planning to see if there would be any issues with the stored items, avoiding troubles later.

He could only research the functions of the Daoist Mortar slowly, unwilling to trade his lifespan for items.

Withdrawing consciousness from the Daoist Mortar, he saw Fu Tianji, looking like a Demon God with a mech, eight arms, and covered entirely with purple-black armor, still standing blankly there, without changing movements all this time.

"Is his consciousness completely dispersed?" Chen Guan didn’t dare to try now, he was too wounded, even if he had healing medicine, it wouldn’t heal immediately.

Chen Guan decided to focus on healing first, cultivating while treating his wounds, without rushing.

As the sky gradually darkened, the starry sky emerged, moonlight illuminating the earth brightly.

While resting, Chen Guan suddenly opened his eyes, noticing many bright spots like stars appearing in the surrounding grass.

"Fireflies?" Chen Guan examined those bright spots, seeing small bugs with glowing tails.

Chen Guan had never seen what fireflies looked like; he only heard his mother say that there was a kind of firefly with glowing tails when they were young.

But surely those in the Secret Realm weren’t ordinary fireflies, moreover, the Dragon Tiger Mountain Secret Realm abounded with Poison Type Secret Spirits, those glowing-tailed little bugs must be some kind of Secret Spirit, likely possessing toxicity.

Unwilling to move much now, Chen Guan refrained from disturbing the bugs, maintaining Azure Heaven Dominating Body state, not worrying about being bitten by them.

Judging by their mobility, they seem like the lowest-level Secret Spirit.

More and more small bugs appeared, twinkling stars complemented the celestial ones, making the grassland in the mountain transform into a starry sky.

Even the hillside was lined with twinkling stars, looking incredibly beautiful.

Those little bugs didn’t attack Chen Guan and Fu Tianji, even if they landed on them, they just paused briefly to rest before flying away again.

Chen Guan carefully observed their appearance, resembling large, pudgy bees, thumb-sized, not frightening, even kind of cute.

"These Secret Spirits are similar to Flower Demons, inflicting no harm, merely feeding on plant sap and pollen." Chen Guan breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, Chen Guan heard some weird sounds again, turning his gaze to where the noises came from, noticing that bugs were fewer there than elsewhere, and decreasing.

Focusing his eyes, Chen Guan discovered in the darkness a frog-like creature, bright red body, dark limbs, as big as a basketball, sticking out its tongue, quickly devouring small bugs.

"What kind of Secret Spirit is that?" Chen Guan had never seen that type of Secret Spirit Frog, judging by its vivid color, its toxicity was surely potent.

The poisonous frog, despite its size, moved incredibly agile, leaping silently over ten meters, its tongue like a whirlwind, engulfing copious numbers of bugs.

Frowning slightly, Chen Guan gauged its speed of movement as at least the Second Awakening Secret Spirit.

That’s only it hopping casually, not exerting full power, maybe its Level is beyond his imagination.

Poison Secret Spirits are a notably eerie kind, power unclear, solely relying on toxicity.

Generally, the higher Level Poison Secret Spirits possess stronger toxicity.

Yet exceptions exist, some low-Level Poison Secret Spirits wield terrifying toxins, and this occurs quite often.

Some Poison Secret Spirits of merely a few Levels can even poison through Second Awakening Secret Spirits.
