Chapter 221: White Jade Fire Lotus and Strange Fish

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

On closer look, the group of Corpse Buddha Cockroaches were indeed picking immature Mud Fruits again.

After they plucked the fruits, they also swallowed the fruits into their mouths.

They did not chew. When they were full, they would leave.

“They didn’t devour it.

 

Could it be that Corpse Buddha Cockroach didn’t pick these immature Mud Fruits to eat?”

With a thought, Lin Yan controlled a clone to quietly approach the struggling and roaring Corpse Buddha Cockroach. He climbed onto one of the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches that had swallowed a lot of Mud Fruits. When it fled, the clone left with it.

Although he already had the armor of the Mud Fruit clone and was not afraid of ordinary Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, it was hard to guarantee that there were no powerful and difficult breeds in the Corpse Buddha Cockroach group, such as the Bell Corpse Buddha Cockroach.

Therefore, it was very necessary to understand the ecology and survival habits of the Corpse Buddha Cockroach.

The Corpse Buddha Cockroach that picked the Mud Fruit was not afraid of the Mud Fruit, so Lin Yan did not approach it.

After the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches retreated, leaving behind a mess of corpses, Lin Yan walked out and activated the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder, electrocuting the squirming Mud Fruits on the ground into charcoal.

After collecting the Unusual Items, Lin Yan squatted beside the Corpse Buddha Cockroach corpses on the ground. He cut open their heads one by one and took out their Spirit Marrows.

This time, the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches hurriedly retreated, but they did not have time to take the Spirit Marrows away.

“As expected, they’re all second-grade Spirit Marrows.”

He currently had enough Spirit Marrow, so he was not too delighted.

After putting away the second-grade Spirit Marrow, Lin Yan took out a porcelain bottle of Mud Fruit blood from his bag and activated the special effect of the Formless True Self, producing four more Mud Fruit clones.

With his previous experience of controlling the Mud Fruit clone, Lin Yan was familiar with it. He controlled the rice-sized Mud Fruit clone to climb onto the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s corpse and devour it.

“If I can control thousands of Mud Fruit clones and submerge the Corpse Buddha Cockroach group underground, I’ll probably be able to obtain countless second-grade Spirit Marrows?”

Unfortunately, the blood cut from his Mud Fruit clone could not be used as blood essence. Otherwise, he could manufacture an army of Mud Fruits.

After this was done, Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat.

After four hours of long journey, his Mud Fruit clone finally arrived at the edge of the poisonous lake!

As for the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches that was originally nearby, they had already fled completely. No one within a hundred meters dared to stop!

Lin Yan tentatively controlled the Mud Fruit clone to approach the poisonous lake and touch the water.

There was no strange feeling.

Just as 1 thought, this Mud Fruit can grow in such an environment with dense poisonous fog. It’s not afraid of poison at all.”

He thought that if he needed to explore the poisonous fog, he might be able to go into the water wearing this Mud Fruit armor.

Since the Mud Fruit clone could come to the edge of the poisonous fog unscathed, he, who was wearing the armor of the Mud Fruit clone, should be able to do it too.

He immediately set off and carefully approached in the direction where the Mud Fruit clone had walked.

The further they went, the heavier the water vapor became, and the poison in the air became even more violent.

The smell of sulfur that could only be vaguely smelled became stronger and more pungent, as if it was the smell of countless fireworks.

Of course, there were also more Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, but when they saw him, they fled in all directions, giving him a huge space.

Lin Yan had no intention of provoking these Corpse Buddha Cockroaches. He braced himself and barged into the group of Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, obediently advancing towards the poisonous lake.

Just like that, he walked in without any danger.

Finally, a large lake filled with smoke appeared in front of them. Clouds and fog surrounded it, illuminating the sky. It seemed like an illusion.

Eh, that’s…”

Lin Yan’s attention was attracted at a glance. The lake was densely packed with fire-like spots.

When he got closer…

“Those aren’t spots, but… flowers? Lotuses?!”

On the lake, at regular intervals, there were strange flowers that looked like lotuses. Each flower was about the size of a human face. There were at least a dozen of them growing together as a group.

The petals were completely jade-like. At the bottom was white jade, and the sharp tip on the top was decorated with a fiery red color. There seemed to be fiery red roots supporting the bottom, but there were no lotus leaves surrounding it. There was only a cluster of fire-like lotuses standing alone in the middle of the poisonous lake.

No, it was not without decorations…

Lin Yan looked carefully below the fiery red lotus.

He could vaguely see that under each lotus flower, there seemed to be an extremely thick pillar that four to five people could not wrap their arms around. It extended from the surface of the water to the depths of the water!

The surface was level with the water. It was a little like jade. There seemed to be carvings on the surface, and the bottom fell straight down. It was probably until the bottom of the water. It was unknown how deep it was.

Was this natural or artificially planted?

Why would there be fiery red lotus flowers on it?

However, one thing was certain. These White Jade Fire Lotuses… were all Unusual Items!

Moreover, their level was definitely not low!

The invisible attraction they emitted was actually not inferior to the Unusual Item in the Mud Fruit even at such a distance!

In the entire lake, there were countless such fire lotuses…

Lin Yan shuddered and suppressed the excitement in his heart. He held the urge to rush into the water. He couldn’t be hasty!

Previously, his clone had been attacked near the lake!

The lake was not as calm as it looked on the surface!

He squatted down and stared at the calm lake in front of him.

Perhaps because he was in the poisonous fog, the lake water was not clear and he could not see the depth at a glance.

Suddenly!

The water surface suddenly exploded, and a palm-sized black shadow suddenly bounced up from the water and pounced at Lin Yan’s head!

This speed was extremely fast. Ordinary Tough Realm cultivators might not even be able to react!

Fortunately, Lin Yan had always been vigilant. He had known that something was wrong in the lake. He tilted his head at the critical moment. A smell of blood mixed with the stench of sulfur brushed past his head.

He flipped over and jumped out. He stood up straight and looked at the black shadow.

At this moment, it had already pounced onto the stone ground and was constantly splashing back and forth, bouncing back into the lake.

A fish!

This fish was the size of a palm and had green scales all over its body. Its two huge fish eyes were red and it was ferocious and bloodthirsty.

In particular, its teeth were ghastly pale and protruding. There were two in each of its upper and lower jaws, but they were curved. The tips were stuck together, but the center could not be closed. The tips of its teeth were sharp and incomparably hard.

Its upper and lower jaw were open at 180 degrees and were constantly opening and closing rapidly, emitting rapid knocking sounds. It was like a killing drum that kept jumping towards the lake.

Lin Yan’s distant memories were awakened. He had seen this fish before!

At that time, when he was exploring the underground cave, he had seen such a strange fish that was still alive in the underground pool called Dragon Water Absorption!

Fierce and ruthless!

At that time, he remembered seeing a huge black shadow flash past.

Could it be that this lake was actually connected to that underground lake?

Seeing that the strange fish was about to bounce back into the water, Lin Yan kicked it out of the lake and it fell to the stone ground further away.

The speed at which this strange fish jumped out of the water just now was simply close to the Tough Realm, so he used some strength in this kick.

Unexpectedly, this kick seemed to have hit an elastic piece of metal. Although it sent the strange fish flying, it did not kill it.

He quickly walked to the strange fish’s side and stepped on it, pressing it to the ground.

Feeling the strength of its struggle, it had to be said that although its body was so small, the strength of its struggle was surprisingly huge. Moreover, in a few breaths, it had already gnawed a small pit in the ground.

BANG!

Lin Yan suddenly exerted strength and stepped into a pit in the ground. Only then did the movement under his feet weaken.

He moved his foot away.

The scales on the surface of this strange fish were terrifyingly hard, and its body was actually not injured. However, a portion of its internal organs had already been shattered by Lin Yan’s force. At this moment, it was on the verge of death and was not completely dead.

“This is troublesome. I’ve been attacked by such strange fish twice when I approached the lake. Could there be a large number of such strange fish under the water?”

Without looking, he knew how sharp the strange fish’s teeth were. Lin Yan didn’t dare to use his half-baked Iron Pagoda to test the sharpness of the strange fish’s teeth.

If he was surrounded by such strange fish underwater, even if Lin Yan had the defense of the Iron Pagoda and the Rejuvenation special effect, he would probably be eaten into a skeleton in an instant, right?

Still…

Just now, when the Mud Fruit clone approached the lake, it did not seem to have been attacked?

With a thought, Lin Yan ordered the Mud Fruit, which was foolishly staying by the lake, to place half of its body in the lake.

After waiting for a while, no strange fish jumped out to eat the Mud Fruit clone.

In order to compare, Lin Yan even walked to the lake and squatted down again.

In the end, after he squatted for less than two seconds, the lake suddenly exploded three times. Three similar strange fish fluttered out and pounced at his face.

After dodging and crushing them…

“As expected, that strange fish didn’t attack the Mud Fruit clone!

“But I’m also wearing the Mud Fruit armor now. Therefore, they rely on the basic size to determine the target?

“The Mud Fruit clones aren’t targets of their attacks?”

With a thought, Lin Yan pressed his legs together and contracted his hands and feet, causing the Mud Fruits to slowly open up a little. They clamped him from the front and back, creating a size similar to the Mud Fruit.

He went to the lake again.

In less than two seconds, two more strange fish jumped out.

Lin Yan frowned slightly. “It doesn’t work? No, stand!”

That’s right, the Mud Fruits were crawling forward like mud. With him standing like this, it was obvious that he was not a Mud Fruit.

Lin Yan hesitated for a moment before lying down. He placed the legs wrapped in the Mud Fruits on the lake.

This time, the surface of the lake was calm. As expected, there were no more disturbances from the strange fish.

“That’s right! As long as I maintain the form of the Mud Fruit, these strange fish won’t attack!”

However, if he wanted to move underwater, it was impossible for him to maintain the form of the Mud Fruit, right?

“I still need to practice and test to see what kind of swimming movements can

allow me to safely dodge the attacks of the strange fish underwater…”
