Baishuang City is called a city, but in fact it is no less than a small country.
The main city is extremely large in scale. It is built on a large top-grade spiritual vein. It has more than a dozen small cities under its jurisdiction and has tens of thousands of monks and countless mortals.
Because it is far away from the Far North, the evil atmosphere here at night is not so strong, and there are not so many evil spots. In addition, the Ye family is well managed, and it seems to be prosperous.
Chen Lin did not see the ancestor of the Ye family. After leaving the teleportation hall, he was taken by Ye Zhengming to meet the current patriarch of the Ye family, an old man in the late stage of divine transformation.
The other party was very kind. He first asked if he had any difficulties, and then introduced various facilities in Baishuang City. Then he applied for the elder token and confirmed his identity.
Then, he was taken to a cave.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, this is where you will live from now on. We have arranged some servants for you. If you need anything, just give them instructions."
Ye Zhengming handed the token of the cave to Chen Lin, and then told him about the precautions in the city and the situation in the cave.
Finally, he pointedly reminded: "Daoyou Chen's Elder Token can move freely in the main city, but try not to leave the main city. If you have to leave for something, please inform the clan leader in advance to avoid causing any unrest.
A necessary misunderstanding.”
Chen Lin had expected it, nodded, and said: "Senior Ye, don't worry, I know the severity."
superior
Ye Zhengming laughed and said, "Yes, it is fun to work with smart people, so Elder Chen can live in peace. As long as you don't forget to refine the elixir, I will send you all the materials as soon as possible."
After saying that, he flew away.
Chen Lin watched the other party for a while, then took Xiaocao to check out his residence for the next ten years.
The Ye family was not stingy and gave him a large courtyard, located halfway up the mountain in a place full of spiritual energy. It covered a large area and had all the facilities in the cave.
In addition, he was given four servants, all of whom were young and beautiful female Qi practitioners.
"Meet the master!"
After Chen Lin finished looking at the cave, he called four servants to come forward. The four young female cultivators immediately bowed nervously.
Chen Lin waved his hand and said: "No need to call me master, just call me Elder Chen. What are your names?"
He actually didn't like having strangers around him, but he couldn't drive away these four people. Although the Ye family arranged for them to come over, they might not have the intention of monitoring them, but they still had to have a certain attitude.
"My name is Ye Qin, my name is Ye Qi, my name is Ye Shu, and my name is Ye Hua."
The four little nuns answered in turn.
As soon as he heard the name Qinqi, Calligraphy and Painting, Chen Lin knew that these four people must be domestic slaves trained by the Ye family since childhood, so he didn't ask any more questions.
He pointed at Ye Qin and said: "From today on, you will be the housekeeper, and you will be responsible for taking care of everything here, but one thing you must remember is that you are not allowed to enter the main cave without my permission.
"
"yes!"
Ye Qin's eyes lit up and he immediately replied respectfully.
Chen Lin continued: "Chen is not a stingy person. As long as you are obedient and do things well, the benefits will inevitably come to you. But if you do something you shouldn't do, don't blame me for being ruthless. No matter what status or background you have,
No one can protect you!"
After saying that, he rummaged around in his storage bag for a while, and finally found four bottles of elixirs used by Qi-training monks, and gave one bottle to each person.
"There are some elixirs here, which I will give to you as a meeting gift. Go and get busy!"
The four little girls suddenly showed excitement, thanked them at the same time, and went to work happily.
Chen Lin took Xiaocao into the main cave and began to set up the formation.
The cave itself has various magic circles, but after all, it was arranged by the Ye family, and he had to arrange some himself. Apart from other things, privacy still had to be covered up.
Of course, it is difficult to say whether this arrangement will be effective.
If he were to save people, he felt that the Ye family would secretly set up surveillance treasures or formations in the cave. After all, his existence was related to Ye Luo's fate, and he couldn't really just let it go.
Therefore, even if you set up a covering circle, you cannot do some important things.
After the arrangement was completed, Chen Lin let Xiaocao move around on his own while he began to check his body and then meditated.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
The Ye family once again sent someone to deliver a batch of materials, and also sent several Nascent Soul Stage elixir prescriptions.
This surprised Chen Lin and made him feel more relieved at the same time.
It seems that the Ye family's policy towards him is gentle rather than tough, which is good news for him.
In the following days, he practiced and refined elixirs at the same time.
The first thing to be refined was naturally the soul-producing pill. In order not to arouse suspicion, he really refined it this time. Only when it was not fixed would he use his natural ability once to make it a success.
In this way, a large amount of materials would be wasted, which made him feel extremely distressed, but there was nothing he could do.
At the same time, he collected ghosts in the market and prepared to refine the original soul liquid.
But naturally, they will not use the Ten Thousand Souls Creation Technique to create creatures here. They are just preparing first. After leaving Baishuang City, they will find a hidden place to retreat for a long time to give birth to the artifact spirits of the purple spirit ring.
Practice takes no time.
Three years later.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, please hurry up, the preaching conference is about to begin!"
In the hall, Ye Luo paced back and forth, urging him non-stop.
"knew."
Chen Lin agreed and walked out slowly.
"Isn't there still half an hour left in the preaching conference? Why worry? Your mood is too bad. I think your inability to build foundation has a lot to do with your mood."
Walking to the hall, Chen Lin looked at the other party and said politely.
During the past three years, the other party often came to him, and the two of them had become familiar with each other and became friends year after year.
But unfortunately, the other party's soul defects could not be completely recovered. Although a lot has been recovered, it is still a little bit worse, and the power of the soul-producing pill has no effect.
The Ye family still did not give up, and still sent him alchemy materials regularly, but he knew that his improved version of the elixir recipe could not restore him. If he wanted to recover, he had to use the original version of the elixir recipe.
He also reported this situation to the head of the Ye family, but he didn't know whether the other party could get the original recipe and collect the ingredients for the recipe.
It's probably difficult.
Because in the past three years, he had conducted various investigations and found no information about the soul-producing pill, and he had never heard of any pill with similar functions.
He suspected that Ji Wuyu's family inheritance did not come from the Northern Wilderness Continent, or even from the Star North Realm. You must know that when the Tianxuan Realm was broken, in addition to the Star North Realm, there was also a Star South Realm!
"Oh, I got it. Let's go quickly. Aren't I just in a hurry to listen to the sermon so that I can improve my mood?"
Ye Luo didn't take Chen Lin's words seriously. Of course, she wasn't angry either. She had already faced her situation calmly.
Chen Lin sighed secretly and said nothing more.
As the other party's identity, he could listen to the sermon at any time if he wanted to. He was in such a hurry just to join in the fun. Ever since he felt that the effect of the soul-producing pill was gradually disappearing and his soul could not be restored, the other party seemed to have gradually given up hope. The unyielding energy from before.
Unfortunately, he didn't have any good solution. He could only wait for the Ye family to find the recipe for the genuine soul-reviving elixir, and he would help refine the elixir.
The two left the cave and headed to the foot of the main peak of Baishuang City.
The place was already overcrowded. Almost all the disciples of the Ye family gathered here, but more of them were monks from outside.
Because tomorrow is Baishuang City's ten-year trade conference, today's sermon is just to warm up the trade fair, and also to attract more monks to come.
After all, it is a great opportunity for a powerful person to teach for free.
Chen Lin is also looking forward to it.
His cultivation was basically done behind closed doors. In the past, Fairy Baiyin would occasionally guide him. After he was promoted to Nascent Soul, he relied entirely on his own practice, and his progress was very slow.
In the past three years, he has only advanced his cultivation by a small amount. Not to mention advancing to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, even the early stage of Nascent Soul cannot reach perfection. This is even if he does not lack the assistance of elixirs.
The main reason for this phenomenon is that the exercises are not fully understood and the understanding of the realm is not enough.
Although his Heavenly Thunder Nine Turns Divine Technique comes from the Body Infusion inheritance, the first three turns are fine and the content is not too complicated, but after the fourth turn, it becomes very mysterious. He has been studying it non-stop. , but only mastered the method of operation. There are a few key points that cannot be smoothed out, and the level of integration has not been reached.
So he also attached great importance to this sermon.
Even if the preacher is not cultivating thunder-attribute skills, the stones from other mountains can attack jade. The understanding of cultivation by a strong Void Refiner is far beyond that of Nascent Soul monks like him. Perhaps a casual remark can make him enlightened. .
"Fellow Daoist Chen, go over there!"
Ye Luo is a person who likes to be lively. The more people there are, the more excited she becomes, like a cheerful little rabbit walking through the crowd.
And now, the other party has grown into a big girl. Her appearance is somewhat similar to that of Ye Qingcheng, and she is even more powerful, attracting the attention of all the male cultivators around her.
Chen Lin didn't like the atmosphere of being watched very much, so he quickened his pace, but not far away, he saw a slightly rich man in green robe walking in front of him.
"Haha, it's really Fellow Daoist Chen, I thought I was dazzled!"
The man in green robe laughed, his tone was very friendly.
Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the other person's face, he also smiled.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Zhao. I haven't seen you for several years. How is Fellow Daoist always doing?"
This person is none other than Zhao Jiuzhou from Zhao's Trading Company. He is the only person with whom he has a fairly good relationship since he came to this world.
After sizing up the other party, Chen Lin suddenly looked shocked.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao's cultivation has really advanced by leaps and bounds. Did he get some heaven-defying treasure? He has already reached the later stage of perfection. Are he preparing to advance to the stage of becoming a god?"
