Chapter 202: Great Earning of Spirit Marrows

They retreated all the way out of the poisonous fog before stopping.

The few of them took off their anti-poison suits. Liu Lanqing wiped a few strands of sweat off her forehead and glared at Fan Xiaopeng before saying,

Well be restrained in this anti-poison suit. How about this? In the next few days, well focus on hunting the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches. Theres no need to explore further. Take off this anti-poison suit and return it to Dingan City.

Fan Xiaopeng shrunk his neck. Issuer Liu, my anti-poison suit is broken

Liu Lanqing was expressionless. Arent there only two small holes? This anti-poison suit is for you to wear for the time being. Use your force to block the holes. When this matter is over Hehe, explain to the Equipment Department yourself.

Fan Xiaopeng had a bitter expression.

The anti-poison suits were returned to the wooden box. They temporarily found a hidden place and placed them there. The few of them turned around and entered the poisonous fog again.

An hour later.

The few of them returned to the place where the anti-poison suits were buried. Liu Lanqing frowned. The Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach seeks benefits and avoids harm. They reacted so quickly. We only killed a dozen or so. When they saw that they couldnt do anything to the few of us, they actually shrank back and didnt come out. This feeling

Liu Lanqing thought for a moment. Its as if theyve encountered a similar situation before and theyre very experienced.

Lin Yan subconsciously turned his head away. He never expected that the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches would actually retain their lesson after he hunted them. From the looks of it, this Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs intelligence was definitely not low.

Forget it, Ill make another trip to tempt them!

With that, Liu Lanqing put on the anti-poison suit again and went down the cliff again.

Not long after, violent scarlet flames erupted again, and the entire underground world became restless again. Another large number of Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches surged out of the underground waterway.

However, when Liu Lanqing reached the cliff, the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches stopped chasing halfway.

Lin Yans clones also sensed that this time, almost no Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach had burrowed into the ground. Did they know that they couldnt defeat her, so they didnt come?

Ning Xiaohui scratched her head. Are they shrinking back and not daring to come again?

Fan Xiaopeng was eager to try. Why dont we go down? In any case, the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs strength is only so-so. Even if were down there, well just kill them randomly.

Lin Yan frowned. No!

With the help of the clones hidden in the underground waterway, he could sense that countless Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches were stirring in the underground waterway. It was not that they did not dare to come out, but they were clearly looking for an opportunity.

If they went down to the bottom of the cliff, the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches would use the digging technique to go to the top of the cliff and surround them. They might even destroy the cliff. At that time, no matter how strong they were, they would still be trapped in the sea of insects.

After he told her his worries, Liu Lanqing felt that it made sense. Thats troublesome. Even if we lure them out, they wont come out. If we enter the underground waterway to kill them, it will be extremely risky

Wu Qinglei also said helplessly, Theres no choice. We can only advance with the main force. Didnt those people from Qianyuan Academy say that theres a way to dispel the poisonous fog?

Liu Lanqing thought about it. Thats all we can do for the time being. The underground waterway is complicated. If we dont eliminate a large number of Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches, the risk of entering the waterway is extremely high. Forget it, the few of you can go back first. Ill try to explore again.

Ning Xiaohui said hurriedly, Issuer Liu, the underground waterway is too dangerous

Why? Dont you believe in my strength? Dont worry, just because Im hasty doesnt mean Im brainless!

Lin Yan thought of the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach in the underground waterway, but he still reminded her, Its better to be careful.

Liu Lanqing waved his hand. Go back!

With a wave of his hand, she let everyone leave. Liu Lanqing went down the cliff again and disappeared into the mist below.

Lets go.

The remaining four people took a few steps back. Lin Yan suddenly said, Deputy Issuer, since the mission is over, I wont go back with you guys.

Where are you going?

Fan Xiaopeng clicked his tongue. No way, no way. Dont tell me you still want to get the Spirit Marrows? You want money but not your life!

Wu Qinglei also reacted. Lin Yan, this Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach is cunning and there is a large number of them. Its too dangerous for you to go down with your strength!

Lin Yans expression didnt change. Deputy Issuer, dont worry. I know my strength very well. I wont go down the cliff to take risks. Ill just walk around the periphery of the poisonous fog to see if there are any lone Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches.

Wu Qinglei nodded. Thats fine But Lin Yan, why are you in such a hurry to earn Spirit Marrows?

Lin Yan was silent for a moment before saying the excuse he had long found. I heard from the genius seeds that some large factions will accept some commissions. My sister disappeared for no reason. I want to earn Spirit Marrows and entrust them with a bounty to find my sister.

Wu Qinglei and Ning Xiaohui were silent as they looked at him sympathetically.

Wu Qinglei said, In that case, go ahead. However, let me say one more thing. Your top priority now is to quickly break through to the Yellow Grade n.o.ble Realm. At that time, just your monthly salary will far exceed the Spirit Marrows you can obtain by hard work now. Do you understand?

Lin Yan nodded and separated from Wu Qinglei and the others.

He immediately sped up and arrived near the cliff. With a wave of his hand, dozens of clones were thrown down the cliff.

Then, he quickly circled the surrounding one-mile radius. As he walked, he spread out his clone to ensure that he could monitor the entire one-mile radius.

After confirming that there was no one around and that there was no Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach lying in ambush, Lin Yan returned to the middle and found a comfortable rock to sit on.

He indeed wanted to obtain more Spirit Marrows. There were a lot of Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach corpses underground, and he really didnt want to give up.

However, Wu Qinglei was right. The Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach was cunning. With his strength, it would be too dangerous if he accidentally got surrounded by the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches when he went down the cliff.

Therefore, he had no intention of personally going down the cliff. Instead he got the Formless Clones to help him dig out the Spirit Marrow in the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs corpse!

The dozens of clones he had thrown down the cliff were to collect the Spirit Marrows.

Their bodies were extremely light. If they released their strength slightly, they could greatly increase the resistance. Therefore, they could completely fall from the sky and quickly reach the bottom of the cliff.

As for why he didnt let the Energy Flame clones at the bottom of the cliff go?

Firstly, the clones were scattered. It would take time to rush over.

Secondly, the power of the Energy Flame was too weak. Even if the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs carapace softened greatly after its death, they might not be able to open it.

As for the new batch of clones he had put down, they grasped another Force Feature that he had tested. He named it Savage Flame. It was the strongest one among the few Force Features he had explored this time.

The clones that had mastered this Force Feature were invincible among all the clones. They killed the enemy indiscriminately.

Therefore, Lin Yan guessed that this Force Feature was definitely at least Black Grade or even close to Jade Grade.

Lin Yan had used charcoal fire to catalyze the clones achievement. He didnt know what Unusual Items he needed to achieve it in person.

Sensing the movements of the Savage Flame clones, Lin Yan was excited. They had gone down!

Just as Lin Yan had thought, Liu Lanqing went back and forth. The Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches didnt have time to clean up the corpses at all. Nearly a hundred Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach corpses were scattered at the bottom of the cliff, lying silently.

All the Savage Flame clones were in place. As Lin Yan couldnt control them all at once, he simply controlled one of the Savage Flame clones to climb onto a Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs corpse.

Compared to the clone, the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs corpse was like a hundred-meter-tall mountain. It climbed up the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs head with difficulty and found one of the four scarlet compound eyes. Lin Yan controlled the clone and released his force.

Savage Flame!

As the name suggested, the Savage Flame was a Force Feature that was created under a hostile state of mind. It looked like a flame, but it actually had an extremely strong penetrative power. When attached to his hand, it was like an invisible weapon. Lin Yan had tried it on his skin and could even burn a small black dot on it.

At this moment, once it was used, this clone quickly drilled through the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs compound eyes. It followed the pus that shot out and quickly entered the corpse.

As expected, the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs compound eyes are weak, and the tissues in its body are soft. My clone can dig in!

After about half an hour, the clone struggled out of the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs body. Then, it pulled out a piece of Spirit Marrow from the gap in the compound eye.

Of course, due to the huge consumption of blood energy and force, Lin Yan was still very petty. He directly controlled the clone to eat the flesh of the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach while digging inward. He didnt know how it tasted, but it could indeed replenish the blood energy consumption of the clone.

Success

Lin Yans heart raced. Continue!

He could not perfectly control multiple clones at the same time. At most, he could rely on the Wondrous Tao Te Ching to mult.i.task.

Therefore, he might as well imitate the multi-thread operation of those strategic games in his previous life.

First, he a.s.signed a Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach as a target to a clone. Then, he quickly turned to the next clone, designated the next target, and so on. He controlled his consciousness to switch between the clones at any time and quickly let each clone crawl to the compound eye of a Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroach corpse.

Then, in the same way, he switched between the clones to dig on the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs body.

This operation was extremely exhausting because the location of each Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs body was different. It was equivalent to having to undergo micromanagement at all times and be highly focused at all times.

It was only because these two operations were not complicated that Lin Yan could barely do it.

Looks like I should set up an Automatic Search Program for the Formless Clone. Oh right, I also have to set up an Automatic Digging Program for Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroachs Spirit Marrow

Although the operation was complicated and difficult, the effect was also gratifying.

As the clones worked tirelessly, white Spirit Marrows were dug out of the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches bodies. Lin Yan even specially a.s.signed six clones to the transport team. Like a team of ants, they transported the Spirit Marrows from the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches to the bottom of the cliff.

After an hour, Lin Yan suddenly opened his eyes. Although his face was pale and his forehead was covered in sweat, his eyes were filled with delight.

He immediately got up and quickly climbed down the rock wall. His hands and feet were burning, and his heart was beating faster.

Before long, he climbed to the bottom of the rock wall and saw a large pile of white Spirit Marrows hidden in a pit on the ground!

Lin Yan hurriedly took out his bag, grabbed handfuls of Spirit Marrows, and placed them into the bag. After putting all of them in, he immediately climbed back up the rock wall.

When he returned to the rock wall, Lin Yan panted. He was not tired, but a little nervous and excited. So many Spirit Marrows were easily taken by him?

I forgot to retrieve the dozens of Savage Flame clones Forget it, theyve already eaten the flesh of the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches. Its a little strange to retrieve them

With a thought, all the Savage Flame clones froze and melted into drops of blood.

It was not that Lin Yan was petty and uncaring, but the perception of the Savage Flame clone was not strong. If he was not careful and they were discovered by Liu Lanqing or anyone, it would be troublesome.

After taking a few breaths to calm down, Lin Yans mind worked even faster.

The underground waterway is filled with Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches. Its indeed not easy for me to directly explore it.

However I can get my clones to explore in my place!

Its fine if theyre slow or take more time.

As long as I have enough clones and station them at important nodes in the underground waterway, I can directly sense the map of the entire underground waterway and the dynamic changes of the Corpse Buddha c.o.c.kroaches at any time through the clones!

The more Lin Yan thought about it, the more excited he became. The Formless True Self seemed to be unable to be used in battle, but the concealment and intelligence of his clones could play a huge support role.

However, the program that needs to be written for this exploration is much more complicated
