Although I have never met Xiaocao, after listening to Chen Lin's descriptions over the years, I am very grateful to this little girl who saved Chen Lin from danger many times.
But Xiaocao didn't respond. She just stood silently behind Chen Lin, even a little bit hostile.
It's not because of anything else, but because Chen Lin almost died several times because he saved Luo Qinglan. How could she, who always regarded Chen Lin's life as more important than her own, have a good impression of Luo Qinglan.
Chen Lin was also helpless about Xiaocao's character, but he didn't want to scold him, so he could only give Luo Qinglan a look to tell him not to mind.
Luo Qinglan had a clear mind, so naturally she wouldn't mind. She smiled and said, "I feel relieved that Miss Xiaocao is here. I have been away from my husband for so many years, which has made the girl suffer."
After saying that, he gave Xiaocao a gentle bow.
Chen Lin looked surprised. Luo Qinglan had such a arrogant temperament. To be able to do this, he really didn't treat Xiaocao as a slave, which made him very happy.
What surprised him even more was that Xiaocao pursed her lips and actually returned the gift, saying: "I've met the mistress!"
Although his attitude is still very stiff, this is a qualitative change. Since he took in this little girl, this is the first time that the other party has greeted someone other than him!
He immediately laughed and said: "Haha, my wife is more proud of you. You are the first person Xiaocao has ever seen. You deserve to be celebrated!"
Luo Qinglan also smiled and said: "That means sister Xiaocao also knows about my relationship with my husband, so she loves the house as much as the bird."
After speaking, he walked to Xiaocao, held up her little hand and said, "My husband often mentions you to me. Without you, we would not be reunited as husband and wife, so you are our benefactor. There is no need to call you mistress. You and I can be called sisters."
"Okay mistress!"
Xiaocao answered immediately, but did not change the title.
"Okay, don't embarrass Xiaocao. You can call her whatever you want. Xiaocao has recovered today. It's time to celebrate. Call Mu Shi and the others to discuss the next plan!"
Upon seeing this, Chen Lin immediately spoke out to calm the atmosphere.
Juming Tower.
In the box.
"Fellow Taoist Zhuge, is there any progress in stargazing?"
Although Chen Lin currently has the lowest cultivation level, the group of people focused on him. After introducing Xiaocao, they began to ask about the situation.
Zhuge Hengyun shook his head and replied helplessly: "The stars in this world are rather strange. It seems that some power has obscured the secrets of heaven, and it is still impossible to divine useful information."
Chen Lin frowned when he heard this.
He knew the other party's methods and was definitely a strong player in star divination. However, he had not been able to detect anything over the years, which made him suspect that there was something wrong here. When the frog chose this interface to found his country, he was probably not just for the sake of it.
Crystal bugs are so simple.
And the presence of the old skeleton adds a lot of mystery to this interface.
The more this happens, the less he wants to stay here and must leave as soon as possible.
"Is there any new news from the Master?"
In the past ten years, Mu Xingchen has become the chief alchemist of Sihai Trading Company, has recruited many apprentices, and has gained a certain degree of power.
"There is some information, but it is not of much use. However, I suspect that the Nightmare Realm node is within the palace, because among the information collected this time, one of them mentioned that when the palace was being built, a group of craftsmen were infected with a strange disease.
Death, and later the project was closed for a period of time, which was probably caused by the leakage of the nightmare world's aura."
"Is that so? Let's investigate carefully again, but we have to do it secretly. There are fifth-level experts in the palace, and we are not our opponents yet."
Chen Lin gave some instructions.
Now among them, the most powerful one is Luo Qinglan, who has reached the perfect level of Nascent Soul, and her spatial ability is also at home here. It is because of her that they can gain a foothold in Kyoto. Sihai Trading Co., Ltd. can only
I can win over others without daring to make any crooked ideas.
Next is Zhuge Hengyun.
The opponent also has the perfect cultivation level of Nascent Soul, but because he has to suppress the alienation in his body, he cannot use his full strength.
As for Mu Xingchen, he was much different.
Mu Xingchen's golden elixir is perfect, but he also has to suppress alienation, and his strength is not as good as his. However, in the past ten years, he has improved his cultivation to the realm of foundation building perfection, and can attack the golden elixir at any time.
For him, breaking through the golden elixir is like searching for something, but the rules of the world are different, and the spiritual power required for monks to advance cannot be triggered. Therefore, both he and Luo Qinglan are stuck on this and cannot advance.
The important reason why he left in a hurry.
It is a pity that the world-breaking disk was also lost to the old skeleton. Otherwise, there would be another way to leave. Now we can only place our hope on the nightmare world node.
Thinking of the boundary-breaking disk, Chen Lin felt a faint pain in his heart.
What he lost this time was not only the World-Breaking Disk, but also the Void-Breaking Shuttle, Xuanwu Shield, Bone Knife and many other treasures, which was equivalent to cutting off most of his wealth!
Fortunately, some of the items were left with Luo Qinglan, otherwise he would have been really destitute.
The few people communicated again, and after confirming their plans for the next period of time, they separated.
Back at his residence, Chen Lin asked Xiaocao to protect the law, and he entered the nightmare world.
Gambling Lake Grove.
"How's it going? Did you find anything?"
Chen Lin appeared, looked at Fat Tiger sitting on a tree stump, and asked.
Fat Tiger is his exclusive contracted creature. Although there is only one head left in the ruins, after entering the nightmare world, he relied on the connection with the opponent's immortal body to summon the remaining body fragments to his side, allowing the opponent to recover again.
.
However, the origin was severely damaged and the recovery was not ideal. The memory also declined further, and many things could not be remembered. It was still necessary to constantly baptize the body with nightmare energy to prevent the body from collapsing again.
So he simply asked the other party to stay here and help him pay attention to the surrounding situation, mainly paying attention to the traces of the cat-headed monster.
"No, Master!"
Fat Tiger stood up and answered mechanically.
"What about you, have you been unusual lately?"
Chen Lin walked closer and checked, then looked around again.
"I'm fine, Master, I just can't remember the information you need."
Fat Tiger seemed a little depressed.
Chen Lin touched the other party's shoulder and comforted him: "It doesn't matter. Don't worry about this. Just stay here and pay attention to the cat lady Xirina. This is more important to me."
"It's the master!"
Fat Tiger's eye sockets flashed red and he agreed to speak.
Chen Lin nodded, turned around again, glanced twice in the direction of Gambling Lake, and his body slowly dissipated.
Now his silver soul has not fully recovered, and he does not have the immortal stone, so he cannot stay in the nightmare world for a long time, and without Niu Niu's amulet, he cannot go fishing in Gambling Lake. The only meaning of existence here is to wait for the cat head.
Something strange appears.
As for the withered towering tree, he had no idea of exploring it. The current situation was not suitable for branches.
In the training room, Chen Lin opened his eyes.
First, take out a soul refining pill and swallow it. While refining it, you will think about how to advance to the golden elixir realm.
If the node of the Nightmare Realm cannot be found for a long time, his cultivation cannot be stagnated because of this. He cannot use spiritual treasures until he reaches the Golden Core realm, and some high-level talismans and other treasures cannot be activated, which will have a great impact on him.
In addition, his lifespan is also showing signs of passing away. Although it has eased after using the soul refining pill to increase the strength of his soul, he will definitely no longer have the lifespan of the god-transformation stage. This cannot be ignored.
Therefore, it is imperative to break through the golden elixir.
After thinking for a while, Chen Lin took out several balls from his storage bag.
These are the demon elixirs of fifth-level thunder attribute demon beasts. They were not obtained in this world, but were his previous inventory and were placed with Luo Qinglan, so they were not lost.
The fifth-level demon beast is equivalent to the stage of becoming a god. The demon elixir contains the power of the rules of heaven and earth in the monk interface. He wants to use the Thunder God Sword as the formation eye and these demon elixirs as the energy source to arrange a formation to simulate spiritual power.
Thunder is coming!
This idea had been in his mind for a long time, but he never took action because he lacked confidence.
In the current situation, we cannot wait any longer.
"Husband, although you are originally a god-incarnation cultivator, your current physical condition is not good after all. There is no precedent for simulating thunder disasters. Will there be any accidents?"
Luo Qinglan was a little hesitant when she heard Chen Lin's thoughts.
Chen Lin, however, had already made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "We have to give it a try no matter what. Even if we don't consider the lifespan issue, it is not a problem to stop our cultivation at the foundation building stage. Moreover, even if we find the node of the nightmare world, we can transfer it."
The process cannot be guaranteed to be risk-free, and even high-level treasures cannot be used to build the foundation, which is too restrictive."
Then he added: "It doesn't matter if I fail. With you plundering the formation for me, my life will not be in danger. I will just recover slowly from some damage to my body."
After saying this, Luo Qinglan stopped insisting, and the two began to discuss the details.
Three months later.
On a mountaintop thousands of miles away from the capital, three figures fell down.
It was Chen Lin, Luo Qinglan and Xiaocao.
No one was told about this operation. Now that Xiaocao's strength has recovered, he is already at the top of the combat force in this world. Unless the old skeleton man comes to find him, there is no need to worry about anyone interfering.
"Let's just go here. I have explored this place before, and it is relatively full of spiritual energy. If I use spiritual crystals to set up a large spiritual gathering array, the spiritual power problem can be solved."
Luo Qinglan looked around and said.
Chen Lin nodded, "Okay, without further ado, Madam will arrange the spirit gathering array, and I will arrange the Four Elephant Thunder Formation. Xiaocao will be on guard!"
After assigning tasks, the three of them took action.
It took three days to complete the arrangement of the formation. The main ingredient was the Four Elephants Thunder Formation. Chen Lin only had the formation diagram, so he had to fumble around while setting it up, which wasted time.
"Husband, be careful and don't hold on."
Chen Lin stood in the center of the formation, ready to start, when Luo Qinglan spoke softly.
"Haha, don't worry, madam, you don't know your husband and my temper, how can you act recklessly?"
Chen Lin smiled, waved his hand, and said, "You two stand back, I'm going to activate the formation!"
After saying that, he first activated the spirit gathering array, then released the Thunder God Sword, triggering the four elephants to create a thunder array.
In an instant, the God-Transforming Demon Pill in the formation produced bursts of thunder, which converged at a high altitude, forming a thick tribulation thunder containing the power of rules, and fell down!
But after all, this was not a real thunderstorm, and Chen Lin was not targeted. Chen Lin could only fly up and meet it himself.
The tribulation thunder fell on his body, and Chen Lin suddenly showed joy. Although the energy was weaker than the real tribulation thunder, it still barely met the requirements.
If he is a monk who is promoted normally, it will definitely be difficult to succeed, but he is a monk who is re-cultivating as a god, so this is enough!
This power of thunder had no harm to him, and he did not need to use any means to resist it. He was directly bathed in the thunder light and allowed to be baptized by the energy.
Luo Qinglan and Xiaocao both looked relaxed when they saw this.
Luo Qinglan, in particular, could tell at a glance that the formation was effective enough and that Chen Lin's promotion was inevitable.
far away.
The two fleeing figures suddenly stopped and looked at the place where Chen Lin was crossing the tribulation in surprise.
"Great Elder, there seems to be someone in front of you who is going through a tribulation, and it's also a monk's thunder tribulation!"
The tall man among the two looked surprised and spoke to the old man from the Jing clan next to him.
"Haha, it's true. There are actually human monks who can bring about spiritual lightning disasters in this world. It's really interesting. Let's go and have a look."
The old man of the Jing Clan also looked suspicious, and took the lead to fly towards the place of transcending the tribulation, and the tall man hurriedly followed.
But before the two of them could get closer, they saw a sword light light up, and then a petite body blocked the front.
"Don't come near here!"
It was Xiaocao who came over, watching the two uninvited guests warily.
"Hey, it's you, Xiaocao!"
Seeing Xiaocao's appearance and the tyrannical sword intent on his body, the tall man suddenly exclaimed, and then asked suspiciously: "Why are you here, where is Chen Lin?"
This person is Yu Guangyan, and the old man is Yu Gongyuan, the great elder of the Jing clan.
He knew Xiaocao and knew the relationship between Xiaocao and Chen Lin, so it was impossible for him to appear alone.
Immediately, he briefly explained Xiaocao's situation to Yu Gonggong beside him, who nodded with a strange look on his face.
At this time, Xiaocao also recognized Yu Guangyan, and immediately showed a look of surprise, saying: "It's Master Yu Guangyan, my master has been looking for you!"
"oh?"
Yu Guangyan glanced around and said, "Where is he?"
But before Xiaocao could answer, he sensed the appearance of the person who had overcome the tribulation. Who else could it be if it wasn't Chen Lin!
"What's wrong with your master, he actually survived the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation?"
Yu Guangyan spoke in shock.
When the Red Moon Sea parted, Chen Lin was already a Nascent Soul monk. After so many years, with his talent, even if he was not promoted to God Transformation, he would not become a Foundation Establishment monk. A major change must have occurred.
At this time, Luo Qinglan realized that something seemed wrong here and flew over.
After just one glance, she also showed a look of surprise and said with a gentle salute: "I am Luo Qinglan, a Taoist companion of Chen Lin. I have met these two adults."
She had seen the portraits of the two of them countless times and knew that they were related to the way they left, so she was very polite.
In addition, the energy fluctuations in the old man's body were extremely deep. He was at least at the peak level of God Transformation, and possibly even at the Void Refining level, so she could not be ignored.
"Are you Chen Lin's Taoist companion?"
Hearing this, Yu Guangyan took a deep look at Luo Qinglan and said with a smile: "It's true that the country is beautiful and the city is beautiful. No wonder that guy Chen Lin spent everything to find you. It's really worth it."
"Haha, how could I, Mr. Chen, have such a bad taste? Ordinary people can't catch my eye!"
There was a flash of thunder, and Chen Lin, who had completed his tribulation, appeared next to Luo Qinglan and smiled at Yu Guangyan.
Then, he immediately clasped his fists respectfully towards Yu Gongyuan and said: "I have met the great elder, you two adults made it easy for me to find him!"
