Chapter 399: Chapter 329: Cunning Plan for Treasure, Star Sea Memories (Part 2)

This magical technique is rarely used and is called the Wand Storage Skill, which can substitute an object for one’s form. The Wand Storage Skill, combined with the Staff Dissolving Skill and the Corpse Dissolving Skill, forms a method to perfectly achieve the state of a Corpse Dissolving Immortal, avoiding the calamity of death.

The former Military Advisor of the General’s Tomb failed in corpse dissolving because he didn’t have such a method, his soul trapped between life and death.

However, Zhang Kui’s purpose is to create bait.

As for why not use the Clone Skill, firstly, this place is constantly shrouded in a terrifying killing intent, making the Clone Skill fragile and easy to break. Secondly, the puppet is refined entirely from divine materials and can withstand more Sword Qi and attacks.

Soon, a “Zhang Kui,” whose aura was indistinguishable, appeared in front of him, clasping his hands with a smile and laughing as he left.

…

In the ethereal white fog, the Three-Headed and Six-Armed Immortal Corpse moved slowly, sniffing around randomly, with ghostly fires burning fiercely in its hollow eye sockets, making it seem extremely restless.

Like its kind, it was born without much consciousness and acted on instinct, driven by the desire to kill.

What was special was its instinctive reliance on the white fog, knowing it wouldn’t be harmed, so it always hid within the fog.

However, its first act of slaughter since its birth met Zhang Kui, and after continuously suffering setbacks, it developed an indescribable feeling.

If this led to the birth of consciousness, and one day it entered the path, it would understand this feeling as anger. But now, it only had one strong desire: to find Zhang Kui and destroy him with its fangs, using the powerful features of the white fog.

Boom!

Just as it was preparing to further drive the fog, the bronze gate outside the courtyard was kicked open, twirling into the white fog, and was instantly ground into powder.

Zhang Kui swaggered in, shouting:

“Fool, your Grandpa Zhang is here!”

Roar!

The Three-Headed and Six-Armed Immortal Corpse, now without hands, roared towards the sky, driven by terrifying killing intent and strong desire. The Immortal Artifact white fog surged madly, spreading outside the gate.

“Zhang Kui” let out a strange scream and turned to run.

He moved quickly, leading the fog to the deck square behind him.

Clang!

Suddenly, thousands of purple Sword Lights burst forth from “Zhang Kui’s” body, provoking anything that moved—Immortal Corpses, Immortal Fiends, and the Chaotic Immortal Array.

Boom!

The previously silent deck square erupted instantly; Immortal Corpses roared furiously, and Immortal Fiends arrived with eerie black light flashing. The Chaotic Immortal Array exploded in a blaze of colorful flames like a tidal wave.

In the blink of an eye, the “Zhang Kui” acting as bait was submerged in various terrifying forces, which instantly intertwined.

The unlucky ones were the Immortal Corpses and Immortal Fiends, without any suspense, they were devoured by the Immortal Artifact’s white fog and turned to dust in an instant. The colorful flames of the Chaotic Immortal Array collided with the Immortal Artifact white fog, erupting in terrifying roars and dazzling white light.

“Oh my goodness…”

Zhang Kui, who was watching from afar, clicked his tongue and quickly retreated.

After an unknown period, the deck square gradually calmed, with nearly half of the Immortal Corpses vanished, and many Chaotic Immortal Arrays completely shattered, scattering pieces of Cave Heaven Divine Crystal all over the ground.

The Immortal Artifact “Dust Heart Cloth” didn’t fare well either, the white fog space noticeably thinned, retracting back to the initial courtyard.

The Three-Headed and Six-Armed Immortal Corpse hid inside, trembling, seemingly developing another emotion known as fear.

Boom!

Soon after, the wall of the courtyard was kicked down, and an arrogant figure swaggered in once more.

“Fool, your Grandpa Zhang is still here!”

Roar!

Fear was overcome by anger as the Three-Headed and Six-Armed Immortal Corpse drove the white fog madly in pursuit once more.

This time, “Zhang Kui” ran even further, provoking more things, and the deck square plunged into chaos again. The fierce roar and the endless blinding white light persisted for a long time.

After settling down again, the sought-after “Dust Heart Cloth” space white fog thinned further, with its area reduced by nearly half.

Rumble…

It was that same swaggering, arrogant figure yet again.

“Fools, your Grandpa Zhang is still here!”

This time, fear was mixed with confusion and hesitation, but it was still overcome by immense anger. However, after the square fell into chaos, the “Dust Heart Cloth” couldn’t hold on, and the space was completely engulfed by white mist.

In the distance, in a daze, Zhang Kui saw a graceful figure with fluttering clothes trying to touch the three-headed, six-armed immortal corpse, but ultimately fading away, as a broken white scroll fell from the sky like leaves.

The surviving three-headed, six-armed immortal corpse seemed a bit dazed, its hollow eyes staring blankly at the shattered “Dust Heart Cloth”, the blue ghost fire within its eyes flickering intensely, then gradually fading.

Zhang Kui strode forth, drawing the Immortal Sword “Breaking Sun” with a clang, and came to the side of the three-headed, six-armed immortal corpse, speaking in a deep voice:

“Hey, this time it’s really me!”

Yet, the immortal corpse did not even look at him, still fixated on the shattered “Dust Heart Cloth”, its eye’s blue fire completely extinguished, and it fell to the ground with a thud.

Zhang Kui frowned slightly; this immortal corpse unexpectedly developed a sliver of vitality, only to snuff it out and end itself, truly strange.

Looking again at its blue and white robe, although the other immortal corpses’ clothing and armor were barely distinguishable, mostly deteriorated, this one still had residual spirit light flickering.

This one’s identity is probably not simple.

Next, Zhang Kui squinted slightly, noticing the jade pendant at its waist, intricately carved with bronze, crystal clear, clearly not an ordinary item. With a wave of his hand, it fell into his palm.

“It’s actually a storage treasure!”

With a sweep of his divine thought, Zhang Kui’s eyes instantly lit up with surprise.

Most ancient magical artifacts have been destroyed, only those transformed into ancient artifacts can survive. There are quite a few that can store items, but such an existence akin to an immortal artifact was the first he had seen.

The space inside was vast, almost able to contain the entire hall, yet there were not many items, only some scattered bits and pieces remained.

Zhang Kui was not surprised; many clues indicated that the ancient battle was extremely brutal, with drastic losses of pills and magical artifacts, like those empty warehouses in the yin mansion.

At this moment, although the immortal corpses on the deck square were completely wiped out, most of the chaotic immortal arrays had nearly collapsed, still burning with their last colorful flames, indicating it would take a while longer to be completely safe.

Zhang Kui simply rummaged through the contents of this storage jade pendant.

Two bottles of pills, upon opening, black smoke and green mist billowed out, completely deteriorated into deadly poison…

An odd little box, filled with various tools, brimming with spirit light, seemingly used to repair some delicate items…

Then, there were a few black jade plates containing information.

Zhang Kui picked them up one by one and held them to his forehead.

The first plate, “Map of the Starship Regulations of the Infinite Immortal Dynasty”.

A supreme treasure!

Zhang Kui’s eyes brimmed with delight, even a brief glance revealed densely packed information, not only about several types of standardized starships but also detailed drawings and refining processes.

The second plate, “Detailed Explanation of the Immortal Gate’s Universe Lock”.

Zhang Kui glanced through it roughly, frowning slightly, realizing that for an immortal gate to connect to another location, both locations’ lock eye frequencies must be consistent. The lock eye is the most core area of the immortal gate, requiring special items, namely, that little box from earlier for adjustment.

So this guy was a locksmith…

The third plate was filled with dense letter records.

“Xinhuan, the star river is vast, though distant from you, I think of you every day. Rest assured, I, Lan Chen, swear to earn a Tao fruit for us to share longevity…”

“Xinhuan, listen to my advice, quickly leave the border. The Eternal Immortal Dynasty is making strange moves, and those star gods are also restless, fearing a great disaster may befall…”

“Xinhuan, I have received the items, sought a master to refine an immortal artifact for me, combining our feelings, I’ll call it Dust Heart Cloth. After the war ends, we will resign and find a place to live in seclusion, far from the turmoil…”

Zhang Kui shook his head slightly, “So he was an infatuated immortal.”

No need to look at the rest, the Infinite Immortal Dynasty has fallen, what good outcome could there be for this couple separated across the star sea?

But the power behind the ancient bronze mirror was apparently called the Eternal Immortal Dynasty…

Zhang Kui roughly pieced together a narrative in his mind, for some unknown reason, the Infinite Immortal Dynasty and another massive Eternal Immortal Dynasty went to war, and those starry sky evil gods stabbed them in the back, leading to the current situation.

However, there remains one question: what kind of power caused the grotesque transformations of one immortal realm cave heaven after another, leading to the current situation?

At this moment, the chaotic immortal arrays on the square had completely dissipated, and the exposed divine materials were sufficient to forge the Earth Evil Silver Lotus.

Zhang Kui waved his hand, releasing the treasure toad, “Let’s get to it, grab the stuff and go, since this great path is drifting like duckweed, we might as well strive for a broad and upright path…”
