Endless Clone Emperor

"Huh?!"

"What's going on?!"

Su Zhan, who was smiling just now, was startled by the scene in front of him. His face changed drastically, and he stood up from the ground.

"No, no, nowhere."

"Did it really…disappear?"

Su Zhan looked at the palm of his hand and around him.

He couldn't find any trace of the spirit stones.

This inexplicable, strange scene made Su Zhan sweat coldly.

"Wait."

"Could it be... the black mark?"

Suddenly, Su Zhan thought of the source of everything that was wrong. He raised his hand and looked at the black mark in his palm.

Recalling what happened just now, it all started after the black mark absorbed 81 spirit stones.

"Could it be that the changes brought by the fourth stage are not just two black shadow clones… but other new functions I haven't discovered?"

Su Zhan had a flash of inspiration.

That might be possible!

For example, he discovered the perspective of Xiao Hei by chance.

"Let's try it."

Su Zhan quickly sat down cross-legged.

His consciousness sank.

He entered his consciousness very skillfully.

As he lowered his consciousness, Su Zhan understood instantly with just one glance.

"Sure enough, it's here!"

In his consciousness, Su Zhan saw it.

The place where there had been four groups of black fog had now become six groups… But the biggest change was next to the black fog: a square black-gray cube that looked like a 3D computer software structure!

"Wow!"

Su Zhan, who discovered the new feature, quickly approached excitedly.

He looked carefully.

Compared to the hazy feeling of the six groups of black fog, the black-gray cube gave him a heavy and solid feeling.

The distance between each side was equal, and it was a perfectly regular square.

"The black fog allows me to enter the perspective of each Xiao Hei and see what they see. What is this cube? Which part of Xiao Hei does it belong to?"

"But I have six Xiao Hei now, but only one cube appeared. The numbers don't match…"

After looking carefully, Su Zhan didn't find anything strange.

Immediately, he decisively entered the black-gray cube as he had entered the black fog.

"This is…"

When he saw the scene in the black cube, all the doubts and puzzles in Su Zhan's heart were instantly solved!

Space.

A space of about one square meter, not too big or too small.

On the ground of this space, the low-grade spirit stone that had disappeared in the air was lying there quietly, emitting its own bright light.

"I understand!"

"This is the storage space mentioned in fantasy novels, like a storage ring!"

"The surprise of the fourth stage is not just two new Xiao Hei but this storage space!"

Su Zhan, who understood completely, showed a look of realization and then a face full of surprise.

"Storage space, a storage space that only exists in my consciousness, and I don't even need to wear a ring. It is completely under my control… This is amazing!"

As a time traveler, he knew how awesome this thing was.

He had inquired before that storage rings existed in this world but were owned only by powerful sect masters.

Their value was so high that they were far from common. Anyone who could own one was either rich or noble, and it was a symbol of absolute status and strength!

But Su Zhan's was even more terrifying.

Those masters still needed to carry a storage bag, wear a storage ring, or a storage belt. It was cumbersome, easy to target, and there was a possibility of theft… In battle, there was a risk of destruction.

But Su Zhan's independent space, existing entirely in his consciousness, was like two worlds. He didn't worry about exposure at all… Even if Su Zhan died, these things would remain intact, fully safe!

"Artifact, absolutely an artifact!"

Almost instantly, he thought of thousands of ways to use this storage space!

Apart from anything else, the fact that he could store spirit stones at any time was a great benefit.

No need to hide spirit stones somewhere, fearing discovery, interrogation, or searches… Su Zhan could carry them with him. Whenever he wanted to practice and absorb, he could just take them out.

The number of spirit stones Su Zhan would need in the future would be astonishing, and storage was definitely a big problem. Now it was solved in advance!

Not only that, if he killed and robbed in the future, those spoils and corpses that were troublesome to deal with would have a place to be stored.

In order to become stronger and improve his strength, Su Zhan would need a lot of elixirs, treasures, magic weapons, and the like… Not only for himself, but Xiao Hei must have a weapon each, right?

Every time Su Zhan collected Xiao Hei, he could only collect the main body of the black shadow clone, and the clothes he wore outside wouldn't be collected… If he collected a group of Xiao Hei in the future, without storage space, he would have to collect the weapons and magic items on the ground for a long time!

"Give it a try!"

Su Zhan opened his eyes excitedly and, with a thought, flipped his palm.

A spirit stone that should have existed in the storage space quietly appeared in his palm.

"Success!"

Su Zhan tried several times.

With his constant attempts, taking out or putting in operations became fast and proficient.

From the ease of a single spirit stone to several, and finally, even a handful of mixed spirit stones… In less than half an hour, Su Zhan almost mastered the various operations of the storage space!

Soon, he summarized it:

1. To put items in, they must be touched directly. They cannot be taken in the air, as described in fantasy novels. However, there is no limit to removing them. You can take out all the items inside at once.

2. Items longer than one meter cannot be put in, like a hoe… but it's not certain if the storage space will increase as the black mark level increases.

3. It's impossible to store any living creatures, even an ant, which is exactly like fantasy novels.

4. Everything put in will remain fixed in time and cannot change. For example, meals that can't be eaten at once will stay fresh forever without spoiling.

"Yes!"
