Chapter 289: Leaving the Underground and the Spirit

Marrow (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After putting on the Mud Fruit clone again and using the Black Tortoise Divine Armor to cover it, Lin Yan continued forward along the underground passageway.

Along the way, he could still see the marks left by Liu Lanqing and the others from time to time. This made Lin Yan subconsciously speed up. If he was really lucky, he might really be able to catch up to them.

Due to the Black Tortoise Divine Armor, he could be considered to have passed through the Chaotic Fog openly. He only needed to be careful not to touch the beast demons wandering in the Chaotic Fog.

As such, he had broadened his horizons and seen countless strange and terrifying beast demons.

The Heavenly Moth Man had wings that looked like moth wings, claws on his hands and feet, and a mouth on the back of his head.

There was an insect-shaped human demon with a smooth head and segmented body that looked like a stick insect.

There was a mutated tiger demon with all its fur fallen off. It was probably transformed from a tiger, but its body was covered in compound eyes. It was very disgusting.

They were probably all transformed from the creatures that fell into the Netherworld River after they died.

Without exception, these demons looked extremely anti-intuitive. They did not look like normal creatures at all. Instead, they looked like some insects had been forcefully stuffed into their bodies, such as insect wings, compound eyes, and appendages…

In short, they were extremely anti-human.

Lin Yan felt his scalp tingle and a chill run down his spine as he shuttled through the gaps between these monsters.

“Disgusting! Disgusting! Ptui, ptui, ptui! So ugly! So disgusting! Why are they all bugs! There are all kinds of strange species among the God’s Favored. Why are these all bugs!”

In his mind, Old Qin kept cursing. It was clearly a jade statue, but it seemed to have human aesthetics.

Lin Yan suddenly interrupted, “You mentioned the God’s Favored just now. Do you know how they came about?”

Old Qin said subconsciously, “The God’s Favored are the spawns of God. They’re naturally transformed from other species. They will become God’s ears, eyes, hands, and feet… Eh? God? Does God really exist in this world?!”

Old Qin exclaimed in disbelief.

Lin Yan:”… Think about it carefully. Is there a god in this world? What does the god look like?”

Old Qin sounded troubled. “I really can’t remember! No, 1 still remember something…”

His tone suddenly changed, becoming desolate, sorrowful, and extremely painful. “God is invincible! God is invincible…”

As he spoke, he actually started crying.

Lin Yan:”…”

He took out a piece of first-grade Spirit Marrow remnant, which was what was left from before, and threw it to Old Qin.

“Shut up and stop howling in my head!”

“Hey! Thank you, Big Brother!”

The crying of the jade statue stopped. Old Qin grabbed the Spirit Marrow and absorbed it happily.

Lin Yan ignored him and continued forward.

“Huh? The cave wall collapsed?!”

This was the underground passageway. At that time, Lin Yan had even discovered the skeleton of a Platypus Salamander here.

However, at this moment, the cave wall had completely collapsed, blocking the entire passageway.

“What happened?”

Lin Yan walked over and took a closer look. Not only were there burn marks on the collapsed area, but there were also many water stains and white frost, as if they were traces of frost melting.

It was obvious that this was the mark of Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue fighting.

“Isn’t the Mud Fruit clone able to intimidate those beast demons? Why did Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue attack?”

With the cave wall blocked, Lin Yan walked straight to the side of the cave wall. He activated the Black Tortoise Divine Armor and easily sank into the ground. Then, he circled around the ground and walked up from the other side of the collapsed cave wall.

“Damn, Big Brother, you know how to walk through walls? Are you capable of doing everything!”

Old Qin shouted again.

Lin Yan ignored him. Just as he stuck his head out of the ground, he looked back and his pupils constricted.

Corpse Buddha Cockroach!

A truck-sized Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s head lay across the passageway. Half of it was stuck deep in the rock layer, and the other half crawled out of the passageway, blocking the entire passageway!

It was that gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach!

Its surface was covered in countless deep wounds and charred marks. The huge metal buns on the top of its fan-shaped head were like iron drills. Each of them was half the height of a person, but half of them had been cut off. The cuts were as smooth as mirrors.

However, at this moment, the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach was clearly already dead. It did not move at all. A huge pit had exploded on its head, and it was charred black. There was also a sharp icicle more than ten meters long that nailed its head to the rock wall and had yet to melt.

Furthermore, the seven to eight compound eyes and face that were exposed had already been gnawed beyond recognition. There were even more than ten huge beast demons in human form, beast form, or wing shape that crawled on its corpse and ate heartily.

Lin Yan silently moved further away from the ground before floating out of the ground and standing up.

It was obvious that the gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach had been killed by Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue. The traces of flames and frost were enough to prove it.

He remembered that during the battle with the Holy Buddha, half of the wind and lightning pillars he released had hit this gigantic Corpse Buddha Cockroach.

The deep black marks on its armor and the hair buns on its head were clearly created by the pillars of wind and lightning.

Unexpectedly, it actually ran here and even encountered Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue. It was probably because it was seriously injured to begin with that Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue seized the opportunity to kill it here.

Lin Yan took a few closer looks and suddenly had a thought.

“After Issuer Liu and the others killed the Corpse Buddha Cockroach, it should have caused a collapse and might have alarmed the demons in the fog.

“In the emergency, they must have evacuated quickly. Perhaps they didn’t have the time to dig out the Spirit Marrow of this Corpse Buddha Cockroach!”

Lin Yan wasn’t making an unfounded guess. Although more than half of the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s head had exploded, according to his experience of digging out a large amount of Spirit Marrow, the Spirit Marrow of the Corpse Buddha Cockroach was usually hidden in the lower part of the head. According to the ratio, the gap shouldn’t have come into contact with the Spirit Marrow. The Spirit Marrow should still be buried in the part of the head inside the passageway!

More than ten demons pounced on the Corpse Buddha Cockroach and gnawed at it. Lin Yan walked straight to the side of the cave wall and used the Black Tortoise Swimming the Mountains and Seas to approach the rock layer. He took a roundabout route and arrived at the side of the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s head.

Then, he took out a Savage Flame saber and slashed at the Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s head!

About a minute or two later, Lin Yan’s body was covered in dark green smelly pus and flesh as he walked out of the rock wall.

The Black Tortoise Divine Armor shook slightly, and the smelly pus and blood immediately blew away.

Lin Yan’s eyes lit up slightly as he looked at the fist-sized brain-shaped Spirit Marrow in his hand!

The golden patterns on it formed a strange picture. Although it was far less complicated than the fire patterns on the Fire Lotus Fruit, it looked like the same thing.

This Spirit Marrow was definitely not just third-grade. It was at least fourth-grade, fifth-grade, or even sixth-grade!

“Divine Marrow! This is Divine Marrow!”

Old Qin began to shout again. His body subconsciously leaned forward, wanting to jump onto the Spirit Marrow.

Lin Yan snorted and exerted strength in his palm. Old Qin immediately panicked from the beating. “It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!”

Seeing that Old Qin had become obedient, Lin Yan put away the Spirit Marrow.

He suddenly thought of something. Could this Spirit Marrow be absorbed by the Creation Bodhi?

However, now was not a good time to experiment.

He continued forward.

Soon, they passed through the underground tunnel and followed it to the end.

The path above had already been opened, and there was a symbol left behind by Liu Lanqing at the side.

Lin Yan grabbed the rock wall and climbed up in a few moves.

The sky finally brightened.

Lin Yan raised his hand to cover his eyes. After adapting for a while, he looked around as if a lifetime had passed.

In front of him was a rockery located in the City Lord Manor. It was the passageway that Guo Fan had dug when he was here.

The strange thing was that there was no Chaotic Fog here!

Lin Yan lowered his head and looked at the passageway he had just crawled out. The Chaotic Fog below spread and covered it, but there was no Chaotic Fog above.

However, this did not mean that the situation above was normal.

With his current cultivation and hearing, he could hear everything within 200 to 300 meters.

However, he had been up here for a long time, but he had never heard a single sound.

The entire Ding’an City seemed to be frozen by an invisible ice. It was silent..
