“Perhaps we can change their distribution in the underground waterways. At that time, we will have an opportunity to escape.”

Liu Lanqing nodded. “You’re right. However… I’ll go alone. My mobility is better. Hide here well.”

Lin Yan was about to speak when Liu Lanqing raised her hand. “I know you’re worried about me. I underestimated the enemy last time. This time, I’m on guard and won’t fall into an ambush again.

“Don’t worry, some mere Corpse Buddha Cockroaches can’t hurt me…”

With that, she nodded at Lin Yan, stretched out her finger, and burned a crooked mark on a tree trunk. In a flash, she entered the forest.

Lin Yan opened his mouth. “…1 wanted to say that if you have the energy, take the Spirit Marrows… Forget it, 1’11 let my clone do that later…”

Liu Lanqing disappeared into the depths of the forest.

Although the greenish-blue trees were lush, there were no other creatures at all because of the poison around it. It was silent.

He wondered how the ecological balance in the Underworld was maintained?

Could it rely on the Mud Fruit to devour the Corpse Buddha Cockroach?

Thinking of the Mud Fruit, Lin Yan suddenly recalled the strange idea he had previously. He could take this opportunity to experiment.

He raised his hand into a claw and grabbed the trunk of the greenish-blue tree behind him to climb up. He stood on a branch and looked around at the surrounding greenish-blue trees to see if there were Mud Fruits.

The Mud Fruit was sticky and had a powerful devouring ability. Lin Yan felt that he might not be able to deal with it easily with just his strength and regular martial arts. He could only deal with it by activating the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder.

Therefore, his first target was the immature small Mud Fruit.

However, after searching around, he did not see a small Mud Fruit. They had probably been plundered clean by the Corpse Buddha Cockroach.

Instead, he found a mature hammer-shaped Mud Fruit hanging on a branch more than ten meters to the left.

Lin Yan looked in its direction and spread his hands to release a batch of nearly a thousand clones. He wrapped them in force and raised his hand to throw them. The nearly a thousand clones flew out with his force and landed on the tree trunk where the Mud Fruit was.

Then, under his control, the clones grabbed the tree trunk and climbed up. Like a swarm of ants, they approached the Mud Fruit.

Clearly, the movement of the clones was too small, and the Mud Fruit did not react. Lin Yan controlled a clone to approach the Mud Fruit and stabbed his entire hand into it!

This immediately alarmed the Mud Fruit. Its surface instantly expanded a little and enveloped the clone.

“Huh?”

Through his perception, he found that the clone seemed to be stuck by an extremely sticky glue. There was also corrosive mucus that kept secreting around it, wrapping around the clone.

Lin Yan controlled the clone to release all his force and isolate the sticky force. However, the corrosive liquid quickly penetrated the force and corroded the clone into a drop of blood that was swallowed into the Mud Fruit.

Some small wounds also opened on the surface of the Mud Fruit.

Lin Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and began to control the remaining clones to release their force. Like a flood of ants, they drilled into the bloody holes on the surface of the Mud Fruit!

This immediately stimulated the Mud Fruit to shoot up and land on the ground. Its body instantly turned blood-red, like a ball of flowing blood.

The strong corrosive and sticky force instantly blocked half of the clones.

Lin Yan simply let his clones carry out suicide attacks. Once they were stuck or enveloped by the corrosive liquid, they would release all their strength and blow themselves up to open a path for the following clones.

Just like that, the thousands of clones drilled into the blood holes on the Mud Fruit. Most of them were broken, but more than ten clones really tore open the Mud Fruit’s body through the blood holes and entered its body!

“I wonder if this Mud Fruit’s body is a living creature. There are actually blood vessels flowing inside, but there are no other more complicated tissues…”

Lin Yan was originally just giving it a try. He didn’t expect to really discover a structure similar to blood in its body.

In the next moment, the dozen or so clones were crushed by the Mud Fruit.

The Mud Fruit was unscathed. Clearly, the strength of the clones was too weak. They did not cause any damage to its resilient body.

Then, the blood-red color on the Mud Fruit’s body slowly faded, like a ball of soft mud, wriggling along the gray stone ground towards its original huge tree.

Then, it shrank and climbed up along the branches of the greenish-blue tree. It was obvious that it wanted to return to its own branch.

However, halfway as it was climbing up, an Azure Dragon phantom that descended from the sky directly bit it. Its sharp claws grabbed both ends and tore it into several pieces in the air like pulling noodles, sending it flying!

“Over here!”

The green dragon phantom on Lin Yan’s body dissipated. He held a porcelain bottle in his hand and carefully caught the few blue blood drops that flew out of the Mud Fruit’s body.

That’s right, the blood of this Mud Fruit was actually blue.

After putting away the porcelain bottle, Lin Yan looked at the Mud Fruit on the ground that had been torn apart.

However, he realized that these purple-black mud lumps were like the bodies of earthworms. They were torn into a few pieces and were actually still alive. They quickly squirmed towards the largest piece in the middle and immediately fused together to become a whole. Their entire bodies turned violent blood-red.

“It really can’t be killed after being torn apart… Let’s see if there’s any blood left!”

He activated the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder again and tore open the Mud Fruit, but there was almost no blood this time.

Its body was blood-red, like tissue flowing with blood. It was not real blood, but a jelly-like substance.

After tearing it a few times, the vitality of the Mud Fruit suddenly weakened, and the speed at which it gathered slowed down.

When he tore it open one last time, the few pieces squirmed slightly and fell to the ground. They stiffened and shrunk before finally shrinking back to their original hammer-shaped Mud Fruit form, except that they were separated as a few petals.

Lin Yan exhaled and retracted the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder. He broke a bamboo branch and poked the Mud Fruit. Then, he pressed it apart and discovered that there was a bead in each of the larger pieces. However, it was only the size of a finger. Furthermore, its shape was irregular and its color was dark.

Compared to the previous Unusual Items, those beads’ sizes and colors were much inferior.

“I can’t sense that attraction, which means that those beads aren’t Unusual Items. From the looks of it, only when a complete Mud Fruit dies will the essence in it converge into an Unusual Item. And when it’s broken up, it converges into such irregular beads?”

Lin Yan put away the beads. It didn’t matter if they weren’t Unusual Items. It was completely enough to test the Formless Clone.

On the other hand, Lin Yan brought the small porcelain bottle of Mud Fruit blood droplets in front of him and observed it carefully.

The feedback of the Formless True Self told him that this indeed met the conditions to create a Formless Clone!

“This porcelain bottle’s blood drops can probably split into five Formless Clones.. I wonder if it can give me a surprise?”
