The floating Tianyuan Island seemed to have completely disappeared and never appeared anywhere again.
Some people speculated that he went to the Starfall Continent, others speculated that he left this world and returned to the interface where the ancient demon was. Others speculated that he was hiding and recovering his strength. Once he appeared, it would be a disaster.
There are different opinions, but none of them are certain.
But these have nothing to do with Chen Lin, they are not something he should worry about, and he does not have the ability to worry about them.
After confirming his relationship with Luo Qinglan, he felt even more pressure. After returning to Baiyin Fairy City, he devoted himself to training.
At the same time, he also paid close attention to what was going on at Wanjianmen.
Another month later, Chen Lin finally received the summons. Zhao Ziping and another An Zi successfully delivered the item to He Jiuxiao and confirmed that it had been used.
Only now did his heart completely relax.
Chen Lin was very happy that Xintou's serious problem was solved, and then Liu Ruolan sent him good news, saying that the Time Snail he wanted had been found and someone would be sent to deliver it to him.
This is truly a double blessing.
Because He Jiuxiao was seriously injured, he was unable to go to the depths of the Wuding Sea to search for the Time Snail, so on his way back, he made two copies of the jade slips of the sea map and placed them in the Four Seas Fairy City, and entrusted Liu Ruolan and Tantai Yunjin to help him publish them in their respective fairy cities.
Task.
In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the adventurous monks, he offered a very attractive treasure reward.
Sure enough, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward. He found the thing in less than two months. He might not be able to do it so quickly even if he went there himself.
"Brother Chen, I didn't expect that you would become a blockbuster just by being quiet!"
In the best spiritual food pavilion in the fairy city, with a soundproof box, Liu Ruolan looked at Chen Lin and joked with a smile on her face.
Chen Lin didn't expect that the other party said he was sending someone here, but he came in person, so he naturally had to treat him well.
As for the other party's teasing, he could only smile and say nothing.
If others say that this kind of thing is okay, he will be suspected of showing off if he says it. What's more, what makes him depressed is that more than two months have passed, and the heat of the incident has not yet dropped.
In order not to attract attention, he doesn't even leave the fairy city now, and he doesn't even go to the city lord's mansion to deal with matters. He just practices in seclusion in the cave mansion.
When Liu Ruolan saw this, she wisely stopped continuing the topic.
He changed his tone and asked: "Brother Chen, why do you suddenly need to use the Time Conch? I asked the Time Sand before, is it because you want to practice time-based spells? But as far as I know, there seems to be no such thing in the spiritual root system of the monks.
A type of spiritual root exists, and if you want to practice it, you need to have time-based innate abilities."
Time-related talents are very rare, so she seemed very curious.
Chen Lin shook his head and said: "How could I have such a talent? It's just that I'm currently researching a new elixir recipe, which I just need."
The last time he went to Ten Thousand Dreams Fairy City, he asked the other party about the time sand and the eight-arm detour, so it was not surprising that the other party had speculations in this regard.
"By the way, Master Wanmeng went to explore the Demon-Suppressing Temple again. What was the result?"
Chen Lin suddenly remembered what happened at the Zhenmo Temple.
There is also a Buddha bead in his hand that he has never known its use. In addition, he suspects that the temple contains the follow-up exercises of the Vajra Body Refining Technique, but he has never dared to use the Buddha bead projection to enter and investigate.
Liu Ruolan hesitated for a moment and said: "This matter cannot be told to the outside world, but you don't need to keep it a secret from Brother Chen. The master has indeed explored the Demon-Suppressing Temple again and entered the small door we saw.
later."
"Oh, what's in it?"
Chen Lin looked curious and asked.
Liu Ruolan shook her head and said, "I don't know the specific situation, and I don't dare to ask more."
She smiled sarcastically and continued: "However, my master said that he had made some gains, but he also suffered some injuries, and it took him several years to recover. Recently, he seems to be preparing to explore again, and he also asked me about your situation.
I came here this time to ask on behalf of the family master whether Brother Chen is willing to enter there again to explore."
It turns out that the other party came here in person for this reason!
Chen Linchen felt sad, but he smiled bitterly and said: "Let's forget it. With my small body, I'd rather not go to a place like that. Even Lord Wan Meng was injured. If I go, I'll die."
What?"
Although he needed the follow-up skills of the Body Refining Art, the scene in the Nightmare Realm really left a big shadow on him, and he didn't want to take the risk again.
When Liu Ruolan heard this, she had a different view.
She shook her head and said: "Brother Chen is wrong! The nightmare world is indeed full of dangers, but it is different from the real world. The main thing there is to crack the rules. Brother Chen has the inheritance of the Demon Suppressing Temple and has a natural advantage in exploring this scene. If you don't catch it,
It’s such a pity!”
"Resources in the world of cultivation are becoming increasingly scarce nowadays. If we, the Golden Core cultivators, want to go further, how can we easily give up a place like this to obtain resources!"
After a pause, Liu Ruolan added: "Besides, the secret realms and ruins in the real world are also very dangerous, and once they appear, they will be overcrowded. Not only must we guard against the danger of the secret realm itself, we must also beware of other monks killing people and grabbing treasures. How can we explore the nightmare world?"
Qingjing, if Brother Chen agrees to go, he will be with my little sister."
Chen Lin didn't expect that the other party was also a lover of the nightmare world, and he was worthy of being a disciple of True Lord Wan Meng.
But he had made up his mind and could only live up to the other party's wishes, and refused: "I want to disappoint Fellow Daoist Liu. I really have no desire to explore the nightmare world. It is too bizarre. It is better to practice honestly in the real world."
.”
He is different from his opponent. He has talents and abilities and does not lack resources. He is not in a hurry to follow up on the body refining technique. With what he has, he can cultivate to the golden body state. The distance is still early!
Seeing Chen Lin's firm attitude, Liu Ruolan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she did not continue to persuade, but changed the topic and talked about other things.
While the two were eating and chatting, Chen Lin suddenly remembered something and asked, "Fellow Daoist Liu, Lord Wan Meng is said to have reached the Nascent Soul stage and reached the Great Perfection for countless years. Why hasn't he broken through to the Divine Transformation stage? But are there any restrictions?
?”
Several late-stage Yuanying monks in this world have existed for hundreds of years, but none of them have tried to advance to become gods. He also asked Fairy Silver, but she didn't say much, which made him very curious.
Liu Ruolan looked at the surrounding barriers and whispered: "This is not a secret. Brother Chen should have some guesses in his mind. He is just afraid of those things!"
She pointed to it, her expression solemn.
Then he continued: "Once the monks in this world reach the stage of becoming gods, they have to ascend. At that time, they are no longer protected by the will of the world, and the foreign spirits can take action without any scruples. If the promotion fails, under the terrifying power of the divine catastrophe,
, basically the end result is that the soul is scattered, so no matter whether it is success or failure, there is no way to survive, who dares to try it!"
Chen Lin nodded with a heavy face, he also guessed the same.
The reason why Wanmeng Zhenjun is keen on exploring the nightmare world is probably because he wants to use the nightmare world to bypass the blockade of alien spirits and sneak out of this world to ascend.
There is also True Lord Xuanyin of Xuanyin Fairy City, who holds the Lingbao Huangquan Diagram and never leaves Xuanyin Fairy City. However, it is said that he is very keen on things about the underworld. He must be like True Lord Wanmeng and wants to sneak away through the underworld.
Several other late Yuanying monks seem to have done this as well.
Moreover, Chen Lin also suspected that after the bug monster appeared, these late-stage Nascent Soul monks did not join forces to take action. I am afraid they had the idea of entering the bug interface in reverse and looking for a way out from there.
Thinking of this, he was still puzzled and said: "Fellow Daoist Liu, you are often around Zhenjun Wanmeng, but what is the purpose of those strange spirits?"
He was very confused about this, but he still had no definite answer.
If the foreign spirits want to raise Gu, they should not sit idly by and ignore the situation such as the great catastrophe that may destroy the monk community.
Moreover, they only sealed this world. Although the monks who were promoted to Nascent Soul were required to donate their soul origins, those monks who gave their souls were not taken away and remained in this world. What is the meaning of this?
?
Liu Ruolan pondered for a moment after hearing the words, and said: "I'm really not sure about this. Maybe those monks who have been promoted to the gods will know something, but I heard my master speculate that those foreign spirits must get something from the Nascent Soul monks.
But we can’t control all the monks, so we use the current method of coercion and inducement.”
Chen Lin shook his head.
Even Wanmeng Zhenjun didn't know, let alone others, so he stopped worrying about this matter and started talking about other topics.
The chat lasted for a long time before it ended.
Liu Ruolan was in a hurry to return to Wanmeng Fairy City and said goodbye after leaving Lingshi Pavilion.
In the cave.
There was a large water basin in front of Chen Lin, which was filled with fist-sized conches with strange patterns on them. There were dozens of them.
This is the Time Snail.
It sounds very high-end, but in fact, this thing can only be regarded as a monster, not a low-level one.
According to legend, when this object completes a certain transformation, it can predict the future by releasing illusions.
But these things in the basin obviously have not changed, and can only release very hazy and weak illusions. It is impossible to tell what they are, and naturally there is no way to guess whether what is displayed is a picture of the future.
Chen Lin didn't know if this thing could replace the Time Sand, so he could only keep it until he could find a replacement for the Eight-Armed Circumference.
Thinking of the eight-arm circumference, he got a headache again.
Ever since he obtained the recipe for the Soul Refining Pill, he had used various methods to find out information about it, but after so many years, there was no clue at all.
Everyone who was asked about it looked confused.
And the name really didn't look like a panacea. Even he himself doubted whether it was written incorrectly on the prescription.
But soon, Chen Lin put the matter behind him.
Because with the unlimited supply of Baili Dan, his cultivation finally reached the peak of the early stage of Jin Dan.
He decided to retreat and try his best to break through the middle stage of Jindan!
