Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 234 - 180: A Treasure Hidden in the Strange Person’s Country, the Holy Embryo Washed in the Jade Purification Bottle

A Dwarf Slave covered in filth and exuding an unbearable stench, was scared to death right before Tao Qian's eyes.

This scene was also a first for Tao Qian.

However, as the strange life died, Record entries still burst forth in Tao Qian's mind.

[Name: Dwarf Slave.]

[Record Type: Alien Species.]

[Record: This is an Alien Life, found solely on the "Human Fetus Island" of the Spirit Treasure Sect's Absolute Immortal Sea Islands. This life form outwardly resembles the Human Clan but has no relation to it. Instead, it is birthed from a human fetus as an Alien Species. It possesses no significant Extraordinary Power, dwells in the peripheral areas of Human Fetus Island, and sustains itself on the excreta of other Alien Species, filthy and abhorrent. It is cowardly yet cruel, and extremely prone to death by fright.]

"Hmm?"

The Record itself was fine, but that note made Tao Qian pause.

Since his descent from the Soul Summoning Pole on Vegetable Market Street, it was the first time he had encountered such a condition with these abnormal souls capable of triggering many hidden Records.

Useless?

Even the low-level exotic objects from before, such as Feces Stone and Mountain Ghost Skin, each had their extraordinary uses.

How could such an Alien Life existing within the bounds of the Spirit Treasure Sect Mountain Gate be utterly useless?

Tao Qian was momentarily dazed but quickly recovered.

Reflecting on the behavior of these Dwarf Slaves, it was indeed hard to conceive of any use for them.

"Filthy beyond measure, feeding on the excretions of other Alien Species, and easily frightened to death... truly pitiful."

"But what about this Human Fetus Island and the human fetus that can give birth to life?"

Questions swirled in Tao Qian's mind.

He quietly prepared the Absolute Immortal Token and Jade Purification Bottle, with the Buddha Bird Relics ready for use at any moment.

He tossed the corpse of the Dwarf Slave downward, and then Tao Qian witnessed a terrifying yet logically consistent scene:

As the body of the fear-stricken dead Dwarf Slave hit the ground, other Dwarf Slaves immediately gathered around, completely indifferent to the filth and not minding that it was one of their own kind. Pair after pair of claws stretched out, their eyes emitting a uniform ghastly green glow, accompanied by the rustling sound of gnawing.

In mere seconds, the Dwarf Slave was devoured completely.

Tao Qian frowned, becoming more cautious, and continued to delve deeper.

Not long after, Tao Qian's auspicious cloud appeared over the second small island, alarming the "people" there.

This time, Tao Qian took a closer look.

The people on this island were slightly taller than the Dwarf Slaves, but each was incomplete: some lacked eyes, some had no noses, others no hands, and some no legs... Only when they gathered in small groups could they jointly exert the strength a normal member of the Human Clan would possess.

Their food was not much better, appearing to be rotting matter, though slightly more intact, resembling "food remains" picked from a large pile of rot.

Upon noticing Tao Qian on the auspicious cloud, these maimed people initially revealed a fierce desire to devour him.

Then they restrained themselves, fell to their knees, and roared:

"Welcome Immortal! Welcome Immortal!"

"We are Maimed Slaves, both body and soul defective, unable to receive the Immortal."

"Please, Immortal, proceed to the Inner Island, where the Sea People Masters will surely serve you well."

Hearing this precisely trained, coherent speech for the second time, Tao Qian was no longer surprised.

Frowning, he didn't respond.

Instead, he casually captured another Maimed Slave without eyes, and another Record with only minor differences emerged.

The notes for these Maimed Slaves were also useless.

Such an eerie sight indeed piqued Tao Qian's interest.

He stomped his foot, and the auspicious cloud immediately sped up.

Quickly, Tao Qian sped past one small island after another, encountering many different "strange people," with no repeats.

In just about 15 minutes, the bizarre and strange things he saw and heard significantly broadened his experience.

In his mind, he quickly summarized:

"This island is called [Human Fetus Island], with the Inner Island as its core, surrounded by numerous small islands that each could only accommodate around a hundred people."

"On these islands, almost all have strange people residing."

"From the initial Dwarf Slaves, Maimed Slaves to subsequently encountering Labor Slaves, Horn Slaves, Feather Slaves, and other Alien Life."

"These abnormalities, from initially consuming rot to being deemed useless, gradually became normal and even civilized."

"Like those Feather Slaves, evidently a group of primitive humans with wings, who also called me an Immortal and brought some fruits to entertain me."

"The only commonality: all these strange people directed me towards the Inner Island, saying that the Sea People Masters would welcome me."

As these thoughts settled, Tao Qian had already stepped onto the so-called Inner Island.

The island was oval-shaped.

It was lush and verdant, and Tao Qian was astounded to find relatively primitive cities, divine temples, and other buildings.

It seemed that the hosts had long known an Immortal was coming, as soon primitive, barbaric music could be heard.

Then, a lavishly dressed welcoming procession approached from afar.

This procession included three types of "people."

First were the giants, or perhaps better said, the long people, each standing several meters tall, their eyes like copper bells, fierce light hidden within, hooked claws and saw teeth, and bodies covered in coarse hair. They beat animal skin drums and blew bone conches, striding forward to greet him.

Second were the beauties, slightly smaller but still over two or three meters tall, voluptuous yet muscular bodies only covered at crucial three points with giant leaves, their long hair scattered, revealing faces both beautiful and radiating maternal warmth.

Seeing these two kinds of strange people, Tao Qian was momentarily dazed.

He thought to himself: "Legends say that in ancient times, in the barbaric Mountains and Seas, my kind of Human Clan was just one among countless kinds of 'people' and a rather weak kind at that. I had once regretted not being able to witness such a grand sight, but who would have thought I'd make up for it here in the Absolute Immortal Sea Islands?"
