In the next few days, Liu Lanqing continued to organize a few missions to explore the poisonous fog.

However, when she entered the underground waterway alone, she was lured and ambushed by the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches. She suffered a small loss and was almost surrounded by the insect tide.

Therefore, in the next few missions, she was clearly much more cautious. She only explored the periphery, and her main goal was to attract the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches out. Once she discovered that something was wrong, she would immediately retreat.

However, the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches had clearly learned their lesson. They no longer suffered heavy casualties like the first time. They mainly ambushed and lured.

The only time they were mobilized in large numbers, they almost surrounded the humans. It was Lin Yan who led them out of the encirclement.

Of course, they were lucky.

It was said that after two Black Grade prefecture capital experts learned about the underground waterway, they obtained the latest antidote from the people of Qianyuan Academy and made simple anti-poison suits. Relying on their Force Features, they were good at hiding and exploring, so they pulled a group of people down into the poisonous fog.

Unexpectedly, they were surrounded by the insect tide and could not escape.

All of them were poisoned. In the end, only one of the five or six people returned alive. He was even poisoned silly.

On the other hand, those who explored the poisonous fog alone might be safer because the threat was too small and their movements were agile.

Helpless, Liu Lanqing simply let the team split up to hunt the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches.

Of course, this was because genius seeds, experts from the prefecture capital, and a large number of people from Qianyuan Academy had already entered the poisonous fog.

The people of Qianyuan Academy had created a mask. There was a new antidote hidden in it. When this antidote was applied to the skin, it could greatly isolate the effect of the poisonous fog.

Although the effect against the poisonous fog at the bottom of the cliff was not good, it allowed the genius seeds to move freely in the poisonous fog above the cliff.

They had also used some unknown material to create a special air bomb. As long as this air bomb exploded in the poisonous fog, it could release a large amount of special smoke that could absorb about three cubic meters of poisonous fog and sink to the ground.

With the help of this special air bomb, Qianyuan Academy arranged for genius seeds to open up a path that was not poisonous in the poisonous fog and a large empty space. They could open up a camp in the poisonous fog and call it the Insect Hunting Camp.

Walking on this path could completely avoid the harassment of the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches. Of course, it needed constant maintenance to prevent the airflow from bringing over the poisonous fog again.

As for the genius seeds, they also used this path to settle down in the camp. From time to time, they would accept missions and go down the cliff to hunt Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, explore ruins, and open up poison-free passageways.

Seven days later.

Lin Yan sat in a tent in the Insect Hunting Camp and sucked the last Spirit Marrow in his hand dry. He aimed the remains at Xiaozhi’s jade statue and fused them into it.

He let out a long breath and looked at Xiaozhi’s jade statue. He felt that the strange and intimate aura seemed to be getting stronger and stronger. It had broken through a certain limit and was no longer decreasing.

“Perhaps, with more Spirit Marrows, this jade statue will change…”

After putting away the jade statue, Lin Yan was slightly excited. He focused and summoned the Golden Bodhi Scripture.

A spiritual light appeared, causing the entire Golden Bodhi Scripture to emit a strange light.

“1,2,3…11,12!”

A total of 11 Enlightenment Spiritual Lights shone brightly on the Golden Bodhi Scripture!

In the past seven days, while carrying out his mission, Lin Yan had also sped up the preparation of the Automatic Search and Spirit Marrow Digging module programs. He had placed a large number of Savage Flame clones in the poisonous fog underground.

Of course, in order to ensure the concealment of these small figures, when he released a Savage Flame clone, he would simultaneously release a Energy Flame clone.

He got the Savage Flame clone to carry the Energy Flame clone on its back and form a group to patrol the poisonous fog underground.

As such, once the Energy Flame clone discovered that something was wrong, it would immediately inform the Savage Flame clone. The two of them would immediately find a place to hide or self-destruct when they could not avoid it.

As for why he wanted the Savage Flame clone to carry the Energy Flame clone, there was no choice. The Savage Flame clone was stronger and ran faster. Even with a medium-sized clone on its back, its speed was much faster than the Energy Flame clone alone.

For this reason, he continued to add the done Cooperation Module, Automatic Foraging Module, and other modules to ensure the survival and work of the clone under the poisonous fog.

During the day, the various genius seeds, members of the Demon Suppression Division, and experts from the prefecture capital would hunt the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches in the poisonous fog or be chased by them. Lin Yan got his clones to hide.

At night, the poisonous fog was pitch-black, and no one dared to stay there. Lin Yan got his clones to go out and search. He plundered the corpses whose Spirit Marrows were not dug out in time. As such, he accumulated a lot.

Coupled with the fact that he hunted from time to time and the previous harvest of Spirit Marrows, Lin Yan obtained nearly 200 first-grade Spirit Marrows and absorbed them all into the Enlightenment Spiritual Light!

It was simply a great harvest!

Originally, about 14 first-grade Spirit Marrows could accumulate one Enlightenment Spiritual Light.

However, as Lin Yan absorbed more and more first-grade Spirit Marrows, this number slowly changed from 14 to 15 and then to 16!

Therefore, originally, 200 first-grade Spirit Marrows could be exchanged for about 14 Enlightenment Spiritual Lights, but in the end, there were only 12.

Clearly, the first-grade Spirit Marrow was the same as the ungraded Spirit Marrow. As the amount he absorbed increased, he seemed to develop resistance, but it was not obvious yet.

“Due to Liu Lanqing and the people from the prefecture capital’s exploration, there must be many Corpse Buddha Cockroach corpses left in the underground waterway. Perhaps there’s also a large amount of Spirit Marrows that can be obtained.

“Now, the Underground Waterway Exploration Module 1.0 that I created for my clones is already quite stable. Today, I’ll throw my clones into it!”

Thinking of this, Lin Yan stood up and walked out of the tent.

Outside the tent, people came and went in a hurry. The entire camp was divided into residential areas, mission areas, monitoring areas, and several other areas.

A non-genius seed like Lin Yan naturally couldn’t accept missions. He walked out of the camp and ran towards the cliff.

As they were worried that the Corpse Buddha Cockroach would hollow out the rock layer below, the camp was a distance away from the cliff.

There were now four nail ladders on the cliff. At this moment, someone was climbing up and down the nail ladders.

Lin Yan climbed down the nail ladder that belonged to the Demon Suppression Division and entered the poisonous fog.

As his clones were everywhere in the poisonous fog, he was not worried about being surrounded by the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches at all. He was like a fish in water and quickly arrived at the entrance of the underground waterway.

Originally, he planned to build a small boat and let his clones quickly spread throughout the waterway.

However, the appearance of a small boat on the Netherworld River was too eye-catching. He could only give up helplessly and use the stupidest method. In other words, he let his clones run with their legs and spread out as much as possible into the underground water domain.

At the entrance of the underground water, there were still some remains of Corpse Buddha Cockroach’s corpse and traces of battle.

After confirming that there was no one nearby and no Corpse Buddha Cockroaches, Lin Yan used his force as a knife and made a small cut on his chest, releasing all the clones he had prepared.

This batch of clones was mainly made up of Energy Flame and Savage Flame clones. There were about a thousand of them each.

It was still every two clones as a pair, one carrying the other.

After “loading” various modules, Lin Yan took out a large bag of minced meat and sprinkled it on the clones.

The Energy Flame clones on the top immediately followed the Foraging Module he had set up and swung its force. They grabbed a piece of meat and raised it above their heads.

“Go, go!”

Lin Yan gave the order to advance, and a thousand pairs of clones quickly ran into the underground waterway.

The speed of the clones was actually not slow. After all, they were also in the Noble Realm. After stimulating their forces, their speed was probably… equivalent to a child’s walking.

“So be it. The advantage is that it’s safe.

“Although I’ve spent most of my time on Underground Waterway Exploration Module 1.0 these days, this exploration module is crude after all. It still needs to be tested and adjusted bit by bit.

“Now, I can only hope that these clones can be more powerful!”

As he sensed the information from his clones, Lin Yan didn’t stay any longer. He left the poisonous fog and returned to the camp.

He did not return to his residence. Instead, he went straight to Liu Lanqing.

“Issuer Liu, 1 want to exchange for something.”

In the past seven days, he had followed Liu Lanqing through the poisonous fog. At the Tough Realm, he had used his perception to discover danger in advance several times and accumulated a lot of merits.

Especially that time when they were schemed against by Corpse Buddha Cockroaches and almost surrounded.

It was Lin Yan who stood up and used the perception of the ubiquitous Energy Flame clones to lead the group left and right. He found the weakest point in the Corpse Buddha Cockroaches’ encirclement and escaped.

Including his basic merits, he had accumulated another 15 Great Merits and could exchange for many things again.

The more Liu Lanqing looked at Lin Yan, the more satisfied she became. “Which Force Feature from the last time do you take a fancy to?”

Lin Yan shook his head hesitantly. “I haven’t decided yet… 1 want to exchange for more Force Features!”

“Alright, what do you want to exchange for this time?”

“I want to exchange for the two Force Features left behind by the Wind Thunder Pavilion, Rumbling Thunder and Wind Dance!”
