Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1074 - 74: Divine Pet Warehouse
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
"Master, I truly cannot hold it in any longer, you must assist me!"
The Imitation Mirror drastically reduced its size, soaring close to Ye Yun as it pleaded pitiably.
"How do you expect me to help you?"
Ye Yun arched an eyebrow, a casual smile gracing his lips. "Do you want me to reach my hand into your mouth and pull that fellow out?"
"This..."
The Imitation Mirror was immediately thrown into a quandary.
Even with an audacious spirit, it would never dare to let its master put a hand into its mouth...
Wouldn't that be an egregious display of disrespect?
It would not dare to act so rashly or presumptuously.
"Master, perhaps I should return to the warehouse? I believe I have my own method for resolving this..."
The Imitation Mirror mulled it over for a moment before speaking.
Return to the warehouse?
Ye Yun chuckled softly, an understanding dawning in his eyes.
It intended to utilize those formidable treasures to extract the Supreme Seven Kills.
"Very well then!"
Ye Yun readily agreed.
He extended a hand, grasping the Imitation Mirror, and with a thread of his Divine Sense, guided it within.
"Master, please just send me to the warehouse entrance!"
From the depths of the darkness, the Imitation Mirror's voice boomed.
"Understood."
Ye Yun complied, tossing the Imitation Mirror towards the designated entrance.
Subsequently, the strand of his Divine Sense retreated back into his being.
The events unfolding within the warehouse were naturally beyond his perception.
Nevertheless, Ye Yun chose not to intervene.
The treasures and Divine Pets housed within the warehouse were all remarkably obedient; despite their immense power, they exhibited unparalleled compliance.
Within the confines of the warehouse, each entity attended to its tasks without causing any disturbances.
Every warehouse managed by Ye Yun possessed a distinct entrance.
These entrances were fortified with exceptionally potent restrictions, specifically designed to thwart any collaboration between denizens of different warehouses.
For instance, treasures were forbidden from entering the Divine Pet Warehouse.
Likewise, those Divine Pets were prohibited from venturing into the treasure warehouse or the Cultivation Technique Warehouse.
Each domain remained strictly segregated.
The advantage of this segregation was undeniably significant.
Should they be permitted to roam freely, chaos would undoubtedly ensue.
It was conceivable that with such a concentration of resources, a being capable of transcending all cosmic dimensions might emerge!
At that point, even the omnipotent System might find itself unable to exert control.
The sole reason the Imitation Mirror had previously navigated between two specific warehouses was their inherent similarity: one was the Primordial Treasure Depot, and the other was the All-Heaven Treasure Depot.
Its origins were enigmatic, making it the singular entity capable of manifesting simultaneously within these two distinct repositories.
Drifting towards the familiar warehouse door, the Imitation Mirror felt a flicker of hesitation.
"I have often playfully teased those fellows, and each of them harbors a somewhat disdainful attitude towards me; if I were to brazenly return and seek their aid, they might very well mock me..."
The Imitation Mirror mumbled to itself.
"What if... I were to change my destination?"
An astonishing idea suddenly bloomed within its consciousness.
Amidst the profound darkness, the Imitation Mirror gazed into the distance; possessing exceptionally keen penetrating vision, it perceived all the colossal warehouse doors concealed within the gloom with remarkable clarity.
"That must be the Divine Pet Warehouse..."
The Imitation Mirror observed for a considerable duration, discerning a particular warehouse.
In the encompassing darkness, none of the warehouses bore any markings or names, yet the entrance to each was uniquely identifiable, whether by its color, shape, or the intricate Dao patterns adorning it, all exhibiting profound distinctions.
The Imitation Mirror was able to make this identification due to a subtle emanation from the doorway – a distinct aura.
It was a composite scent, characteristic of Divine Pets.
The aroma was quite potent.
However, being merely a treasure, it could tolerate its presence.
The Imitation Mirror drifted closer, hovering at the threshold of the Divine Pet Warehouse.
"I likely do not possess the authorization to enter this particular warehouse..."
The Imitation Mirror mused aloud.
"Master, are you present? Might you grant me entry into this warehouse?"
The Imitation Mirror called out into the darkness.
"Proceed!"
Ye Yun's Divine Sense materialized beside it, shaping itself into an ethereal phantom. With a gentle gesture, he ushered the Imitation Mirror inside.
"Thank you, Master!"
The Imitation Mirror joyfully soared inward.
Within the Divine Pet Warehouse, the darkness was even more profound than that of the Primordial Warehouse.
Upon passage, an immense pressure surged from all directions, an overwhelming force.
Nevertheless.
Due to its mysterious origins, these oppressive forces held no sway over the Imitation Mirror.
"Oh my, how has a peculiar little mirror come to visit? This is certainly a rare occasion!"
From the shadows, a languid female voice suddenly resonated.
"What? Haha, a treasure has flown in; this is truly quite bizarre!"
A gruff voice echoed in response.
"No crude language, esteemed guests. This peculiar little mirror has managed to find its way in; the Master must surely have played a part..."
A childish voice chimed in, its tone remarkably serene.
"You are correct; this was indeed orchestrated by the Master, hahaha..."
Within the profound darkness, an assortment of formidable beings stirred, their eyes blazing like nascent suns, shedding an ethereal luminescence.
Such immense power radiated from them, capable of annihilating countless universes.
"I must say, esteemed fellow Daoists, I am not an interloper. I am the Imitation Mirror, hailing from the adjacent repository of treasures, acting under the Master's directive to seek your aid..."
The Imitation Mirror suspended itself in the air, its black and white patterns coalescing to form a mouth, which contorted as it spoke in an obsequious manner.
Upon a cursory inspection, the Imitation Mirror noted the presence of numerous exceptionally potent Divine Pets within this very depot.
Some among them exuded an aura so terrifying that, were they to be unleashed upon the Divine Land, the very world would crumble instantaneously.
"Blast it all, some of these entities are on an exceedingly high level, practically my equal..."
The Imitation Mirror grumbled inwardly.
It harbored a fervent wish to be the sole, unparalleled treasure in the Master's collection, with all other artifacts and Divine Pets paling in comparison.
Only then could its unique brilliance truly be recognized.
"Since the Master has granted you entry, if assistance is required, do not hesitate to ask. We shall undoubtedly provide it..."
From the depths of the obscurity, a colossal, ominous silhouette uttered.
"It concerns this; I was recently accompanying the Master outside..."
The Imitation Mirror commenced its explanation.
No sooner had it begun than the assembled Divine Pets erupted, cutting short its narrative.
"Look at you, a diminutive mirror, neither perfectly round nor precisely square, utterly unremarkable in appearance, yet the Master deigned to take you beyond these walls; where is the fairness in that! Ah, ah, ah!"
The imposing shadow, overcome with a profound sense of injustice, could not help but stomp its feet and clutch its chest in a display of anguendo agony.
"A mere sycophant, this little mirror, its honeyed words began the moment it arrived; I sensed its deceitful nature from the start..."
A delicate, feminine voice resonated from the darkness.
"Truly infuriating..."
A chorus of Divine Pets voiced their collective displeasure.
"Esteemed fellow Daoists, the Master brought me out previously because I had rendered significant service, thus earning this privilege; if you too wish to venture out, you must first render service to the Master!"
The Imitation Mirror cleared its throat, then chuckled with a hint of malice.
"I am indeed eager to serve, but the competition is exceedingly fierce. Thus far, from this depot, the Master has only taken that young dragon-horse and a minuscule spider outside, sob, sob..."
The formidable shadow lamented, its spirits clearly dampened.
The Imitation Mirror offered a smile and stated, "Here lies the solution: should you aid me in resolving my current predicament, then upon my successful egress, I shall personally vouch for you to the Master, and you shall be granted an opportunity..."
"Agreed!"
A multitude of Divine Pets proclaimed their assent with resounding enthusiasm.
"Within the confines of my mirror form resides a spatial dimension, and an ancient immortal has infiltrated it, concealing himself masterfully, rendering me incapable of expelling him by any means; therefore, I implore your assistance, esteemed fellow Daoists..."
The Imitation Mirror declared.
Having conveyed this, it parted its black and white striped mouth.
"Merely this?"
The imposing shadow scoffed after a nonchalant appraisal.
"My esteemed fellow Daoist, do you possess a viable solution?"
The Imitation Mirror inquired, its voice tinged with hopeful anticipation.
"It is as simple as can be; just emit a powerful fart and blast the intruder out!"
That formidable shadow bellowed with laughter.
The Imitation Mirror: "..."
