Little Green

  Ye Chen filled with joy infused his spiritual energy into the ancient painting, manipulating the "Xian Fu" scroll to float in mid-air, changing its size according to his will.

  "Great!"

  Ye Chen let out a soft shout.

  The ancient painting expanded rapidly, filling the entire room like a carpet. Ye Chen stared intently, wondering in his heart if it wouldn't have grown even larger if not constrained by the room.

  "Good!"

  The ancient painting immediately heard the sound and shrunk down to a size smaller than a bean.

  Ye Chen couldn't help but feel pleased, "This treasure really can understand my intentions. After I shrink it down, it's also more convenient to store away, no need to tie it around my waist like before, easy for others to discover."

  He was thinking about how to pick it up.

  Suddenly, a bean-sized ancient painting shot towards him with a "whoosh".

  Ye Chen's mouth opened in surprise.

  A bean-sized immortal painting entered his mouth and was swallowed into his belly.

  Ye Chen involuntarily swallowed, stunned, and suddenly became flustered, his face turning pale with fright. "Swallowed... it's gone down! I've swallowed this painting, what can be done now? How can I get it out?! If it can't come out, won't I be unable to use this immortal mansion's ancient painting from now on?!"

  Ye Chen remained still on the bed, not daring to move. He quickly used his newly acquired divine sense from yesterday to explore his body and see where the Xianfu ancient painting had gone in his abdomen.

  This sight left Ye Chen utterly astonished.

  He can clearly see every part of his physical body's meridians, blood vessels, the flow of qi and blood, tendons and bones, and the flowing Fa power. If there is any damage inside the body, he can also see it.

  Ye Chen soon discovered that a bean-sized ancient painting was emitting a faint glow in his abdominal dantian, floating and wandering around.

  The immortal's mansion painting moves from the lower dan Tian to each meridian and moves in various places within the body.

  What made Ye Chen somewhat unhappy was that the ancient painting scroll of Xianfu would automatically absorb the spiritual power of the meridians, and wherever there was spiritual power, it would drift towards. Inside the meridian, as long as it touched any spiritual power, it would be absorbed away. It's worth noting that Ye Chen had just entered the Qi Refining stage, and the spiritual power born within his body wasn't much to begin with.

  As more mana is absorbed, the ancient painting's radiance becomes brighter, also meaning its power is more abundant.

  Ye Chen saw its radiance brighten and allowed it to absorb his magical powers.

  Apart from this, the ancient painting scroll in his body did not show any other abnormal signs.

  "It seems that as long as my mind moves, the artifact will move with it, and it can even enter my body! It scared me to death! But how should I use the alchemy pavilion and artifact pavilion in the immortal mansion to refine things? ... Is it still like before, just putting the raw materials for alchemy and artifact refinement inside?"

  Ye Chen thought to himself quietly.

  The Xianfu ancient painting unknowingly absorbed the law power and moved to the vicinity of the Mudan Palace. A sudden change occurred, and with a "whoosh", it was sucked inside.

  Inside the muddy ball palace was a dark sea of consciousness, with only Ye Chen's pea-sized primordial spirit floating quietly, emitting an extremely weak light.

  This immortal mansion's ancient painting radiated light in all directions. As soon as it entered the dark sea of consciousness, it immediately illuminated a vast area.

  Ye Chen's primordial spirit opened his eyes and saw the immortal mansion's ancient painting appear in the Mud Ball Palace, revealing a look of surprise.

  His heart moved, and he flew towards this ancient painting scroll. The immortal island painted on the ancient painting scroll was beautiful and magnificent, with an inexplicable strange attraction that made him unable to help but get closer to observe.

  "If this ancient painting scroll could become a real fairy island, it would be great!"

  Ye Chen had just given birth to this idea.

  Boom!

  The ancient painting scroll in Xianfu sensed Ye Chen's thoughts and suddenly radiated a brilliant light.

  Ye Chen's primordial spirit could hardly gaze straight ahead and had no choice but to avert his eyes from the radiance. Only when the radiance slightly dimmed down did he...

  Ye Chen looked again, and saw in front of him a vast and empty space. The ancient painting scroll had transformed into an island like a dream, surrounded by clouds and mist, floating in front of him.

  This fairy island is several miles in circumference, with a wooden house, a mu of medicinal herbs, a simple small refining equipment pavilion, a simple small alchemy pavilion, an animal enclosure, and a large area of open space.

  "Palace of the Immortals!!"

  Ye Chen was shocked, he was all too familiar with the scenery of this immortal island, almost every night before going to sleep, he would take a look at that ancient painting. Often thinking about living on such an immortal island, becoming a real immortal, how wonderful it would be!

  "I've stored the ancient painting 'Xian Fu' in the Muddy Pellet Palace's Sea of Recognition, and it can actually transform into a real floating immortal island here! The senior immortal who refined this magical instrument is truly amazing!"

  Ye Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued to approach the past.

  A little red fox was lazily lying on the immortal island, looking around at the changing scenery with a puzzled expression.

  Ye Chen looked closely and only then did he discover that this fox was actually a small cluster of yuan energy, transformed into the appearance of a red fox. In fact, it didn't have a physical body. Moreover, the light emitted by this small cluster of yuan energy wasn't stronger than Ye Chen's, but rather slightly weaker.

  Ye Chen looked excitedly at the Xianfu Island, and his primordial spirit swooped down onto the island with a whoosh.

  The little fox's four limbs stood up, staring at Ye Chen with a suspicious gaze, recalling something, but unable to remember anything. It had a feeling that the person in front of it controlled this immortal island, and it couldn't go against his will.

  This is the instinct of the instrument spirit, and no instrument spirit can go against the will of the instrument master.

  The little fox asked vigilantly, "You opened this immortal island...?"

  Ye Chen curiously sized up this little fox.

  He lived in the Fog Fairy City for nearly a month, and on the streets, he saw many cultivators with their own spiritual beasts, such as ferocious white tigers, agile blue wolves, majestic earth bears, and divine eagles. These cultivators treated their spiritual beasts as mounts, parading them through the city, and when they didn't need them, they would put them away in a beast bag. The relationship between the spiritual beasts and the cultivators was quite intimate.

  Ye Chen had more than a few masters who owned spiritual beasts, and from the initial shock and envy of seeing spiritual stones, he slowly became numb to them. When he one day had a large amount of spiritual stones, he would go buy or capture a spiritual beast to raise as his own.

  The fox in the immortal's mansion moved and even spoke, which gave him a small surprise. A spirit beast that could speak was too rare, it was his first time seeing one.

  "You little fox can still talk! ...... Ah, which senior immortal's spiritual pet are you, how did you end up on this Immortal Island?"

  Ye Chen asked curiously.

  "Who are you again? Why do I feel your presence all over this island?"

  The little fox is extremely vigilant.

  "I am Ye Chen, a cultivator of the Tianwu Xianyuan City. This immortal mansion is within my body, infused with my magical powers and driven by my divine consciousness, so naturally I am its master! You little fox, where did you come from, who brought you here?"

  Ye Chen smiled and said.

  "I don't know where I came from either! All I know is that my name is Xiao Qing!"

  The little fox shook its head dazedly.

  "Haha, it actually has a name! It's obviously a red fox, why is it called Little Green? It would be better to change its name to Little Red."

  Ye Chen couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard this.

  "Just call me Xiao Qing! I was called Xiao Qing from birth, why should I change my name? Can't be changed!"

  The little fox bared its teeth and claws, revealing an angry expression.

  "Go ahead, call it whatever you like! Continue, what else do you know about this immortal mansion?"

  Ye Chen hastily withdrew his hand.
