Chapter 443: Chapter 320: Using Stone Liquid Again, Two Golden Opportunities!

Cloud-Burning Island.

The island was bustling with noise; on the water waves, there were all sorts of creatures with beast heads and human bodies, strange and grotesque little demons. These little demons were bound by chains composed of fog, dragging them towards Cloud-Burning Island, and along the way, cries and shouts echoed continuously.

"Why cry? To be able to serve under the Sword Immortal’s command is a blessing cultivated over countless lifetimes. Whoever dares to cry again, Grandpa Crab will chop off their head immediately!"

Beside these chained little demons was a row of crab demons with human bodies, wearing armor and holding grand spears, Tier Two Crab Demons. As they approached Cloud-Burning Island, the leading Crab Demon shouted threateningly at the demons.

Upon hearing these words, the bound little demons instantly fell silent, not daring to utter another word, trembling as they headed toward Cloud-Burning Island.

Seeing this, the Crab Demon nodded in satisfaction.

On the other side of the Great Marsh, huge treasure ships were pulling piles of Spirit Ore with deep drafts, striving mightily towards the island.

On Cloud-Burning Island, a large crimson mine cave was being excavated. Many little demons, holding Spiritual Pickaxes and carrying baskets, were sweating profusely, desperately mining the ore.

On the other side of the island, there were numerous beautiful female fairies, planting Spirit Plants, arranging rock gardens, and managing Spiritual Springs.

Amidst the Spiritual Spring rock gardens, a quiet and elegant green palace had replaced the original Cave Mansion, standing tall.

Inside the palace, Array Patterns like golden swimming dragons gathered all the Spiritual Qi within the island, woven by Tier Three Jade Flood Dragon Silk, with Dragon Whale Incense Candles that never extinguish, exuding quiet luxury.

Outside the grand hall, three figures of different ages looked at everything before them, all showing satisfaction.

One of them had a hunched figure, slightly weathered, with an old face. Another looked sloppy, but had flashes of brilliance in his eyes from time to time. The last one had golden hair and red eyes, wearing a scarlet feather robe, looking youthful and with a hint of wickedness.

They were precisely the Old Turtle, Sloppy Daoist, and the Cloud-Burning Golden Frog inhabited by the Heart-devouring Insect!

"After setting up all this, the master should be pleased, right!"

The Sloppy Daoist looked at the green tranquil palace, a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.

The Old Turtle then took out a Jade Register, scribbled for a while, and sighed, "Over these three months, we’ve conquered four Demon Islands, obtained three Tier Three Spirit Ore sites, ten Tier Three Spirit Fruits, a pot of Tier Three Pill, and two Tier Three Demon Artifacts. It’s just barely passable..."

"There’s nothing we can do about it. With our strength, we can only conquer islands of Early-stage Great Demons. If it were stronger Demon Islands, the Grand Array would keep us busy for months. After all, not everyone has the master’s methods to ignore the Grand Array..."

Hearing this, the Sloppy Daoist could only sigh.

Then, his eyes shifted, looking at the Heart-devouring Insect, he cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist Heart, you have followed the master the longest. When the master returns, please say a few kind words on our behalf!"

The Heart-devouring Insect did not disclose its background to the human and demon, only mentioning its surname was "Heart." But neither was foolish, and seeing it lived by inhabiting a demon’s body, they naturally had their suspicions and dared not ask more, simply calling it "Fellow Daoist Heart."

"No problem, no problem, we’re all working under the master. I’ll say a few kind words for you, not a big deal!"

The Heart-devouring Insect inhabiting the Golden Frog had lost much Demonic Power, but barely remained at the Mid-stage Great Demon Realm.

Just entering the Great Demon, it could inhabit a Mid-stage Great Demon with greater power than itself, which delighted the Heart-devouring Insect, walking with a sense of fulfillment and a satisfied smile.

"This little bug actually made decisions for me!"

Suddenly, a cheerful voice came from outside the heaven, followed by an ink-colored Escape Light quietly landing on the island, arriving in front of the green grand hall, revealing a charming and handsome daoist.

"Master!"

Upon seeing this, the Sloppy Daoist and others hurriedly saluted.

"Master, calm down, calm down. The little bug wouldn’t dare make decisions, but the two Fellow Daoists are indeed prudent in their actions. Master, please see, this Cave Mansion has been expanded with the Tier Three Dragon Heart Spirit Gathering Array freshly arranged, the Spiritual Qi concentration far surpasses ordinary Tier Three High-grade."

"On Cloud-Burning Island, there is also a hidden Crimson Blaze Ore, and this Golden Frog engaged in nothing productive, never mined it. The two Fellow Daoists conquered four islands, captured numerous little demons, mining this ore, producing thousands of pounds of Spirit Ore daily."

"The Spirit Ore and Spirit Fruits from the four islands are also fully gathered, being sent to master’s Cave Mansion!"

Having followed Gu Yuan for decades, the Heart-devouring Insect knew his temperament well, having more courage. Thus, it followed smoothly with his words, introducing the current state of Cloud-Burning Island without a trace, highlighting the feats of the Sloppy Daoist and the Old Turtle.

"Well done, but don’t be too harsh with the mining."

Gu Yuan had already seen everything on the island during his Escape Light journey, and now after hearing these words, nodded, also warning the human and demon.

"We follow master’s orders!"

The human and demon received praise, relieved in their hearts, immediately nodding, ensuring not to commit acts that would provoke heaven’s wrath.

Gu Yuan nodded in satisfaction; then turned to look at the Heart-devouring Insect, asking, "Others have merits and hard work. You, inhabiting this body, have you made any mistakes?"

Upon hearing this, the Heart-devouring Insect immediately patted its chest, showing a greenish bug shadow in its eyes, and said to Gu Yuan, "Master, don’t worry, this little demon is no longer what it once was, not only perfectly inhabited this body, mastering this demon’s memory entirely, but also can manipulate all Demon Artifacts and Divine Power, indistinguishable from this demon!"
