Anxious to get the marrow of spiritual gold to prevent long nights and dreams, Chen Lin came ashore to a coastal city, and used the teleportation array to go directly to Bahian City.
This is a huge city and very prosperous.
After all, it is also the headquarters of the top trading firm in the world, and there are also powerful Void Refiners sitting here, so it will naturally attract many monks to settle here again.
After walking out of the teleportation hall, Chen Lin did some research and went straight to the reception desk at the headquarters of Bamian Trading Company.
"Oh? Is it actually Miss Thirty-Six's token?"
Chen Lin showed his ability to transform into gods, and was immediately greeted by the deacons and elders in person. After seeing the jade pendant that Chen Lin took out, he immediately spoke.
Chen Lin was a little surprised that Huang Ying was actually ranked thirty-sixth. It seemed that the ancestor of Qingyun had many descendants.
The deacon elder carefully identified it and said apologetically: "I can't handle this thing. Senior, please follow me to see the great elder!"
Then, Chen Lin was taken to an atmospheric courtyard, and after going through some procedures, he met the so-called Great Elder.
The other party was a burly old man with a majestic face, and his cultivation was also complete.
"How did fellow Taoist obtain this jade pendant?"
Feeling Chen Lin's strong aura, the great elder also slowed down his tone and got to the point.
This was exactly what Chen Lin wanted, so he explained the matter of the golden island.
The great elder nodded and flicked the jade pendant, causing the jade pendant to glow dimly, and then revealed Chen Lin's appearance.
Chen Lin's eyes showed strange color, but he made no sound.
"Yes, it is indeed Thirty-Six's token, and the character can match it. Thirty-Six has been sent back. Fellow Taoist needs the marrow of spiritual gold, right?"
After the great elder confirmed, he put down the jade pendant, looked at Chen Lin and said.
Seeing the other party's reaction, Chen Lin couldn't help but feel his heart sink, feeling that something was about to change.
However, he had expected this. After all, the marrow of spiritual gold was a rare treasure. Huang Ying had no choice but to make the promise under the circumstances at that time. It was also possible for the headquarters to break the promise.
After all, it was Huang Ying who signed the spiritual contract with him, not the manager of the headquarters of Bahian Commercial Bank.
"Yes, I do need the marrow of spiritual gold. I also ask the Great Elder to honor his promise."
Chen Lin put away his speculations and spoke calmly.
He is bound to get the marrow of spiritual gold, and he deserves it. If the other party really regrets it, he will not let it go lightly. When he is promoted to the Void Refining, the trading company will be destroyed!
Seeing Chen Lin's calm and calm expression, the great elder's eyes flashed strangely, and then he said with a smile: "As a famous trading company in Tiancang Realm, our company will naturally not break its promises, but the essence of spiritual gold is too much."
It’s rare, and our firm currently doesn’t have any in stock. If fellow Taoist can change the terms, that would be great. If it’s the marrow of spiritual gold, we’ll have to wait for a while and need to make a turnover with other firms.”
Chen Lin's expression softened.
It makes sense to say so.
Although he still had doubts and delayed it, since the other party said so and he planned to stay here for a while, he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Great Elder. Just send me a message when you have any news. I hope it won't take too long."
Chen Lin took out the communication talisman and handed it to the other party, and asked casually: "The golden island has been mined. I wonder what treasure the golden giant pillar is?"
The great elder smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Then he said: "I don't want to hide it from fellow Taoists. The island has indeed been mined, but the pillar cannot be shaken at all. Now Patriarch Qingyun has gone to check it in person, and no news has been sent back yet."
Chen Lin looked surprised.
Even Patriarch Qingyun went there in person. It seems that the golden pillar is really extraordinary.
After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively: "The Great Elder, does he know if there are any abnormal changes in the pillar? How deep it is inserted into the seabed, there must be an end, right?"
"There is no change. The exact depth is still being checked. The ore on the seabed is extremely hard and difficult to penetrate with spiritual thoughts. The digging speed is very slow."
The great elder replied.
Then he looked at it and said, "But there is the word 'Ruyi' on that giant pillar, which seems to mean retractable. When Daoyou Chen discovered this object, was it under the water or above the water?"
"As one wishes?"
Upon hearing these two words, Chen Lin's expression suddenly became strange.
But he immediately calmed down and replied: "When I found it, it was just above the water, and it was emitting golden light. At that time, I thought it was an island, so I went over to have a look."
After saying that, he stood up and put away Huang Ying's jade pendant.
Then he clasped his fists at the old man and said, "In that case, I won't waste the time of the great elder. I also hope that the great elder can bring over the marrow of spiritual gold as soon as possible and say goodbye."
After leaving the courtyard all the way, Chen Lin found a place to sit in a spiritual wine house, sipping the spiritual wine while thinking about the information he got from the great elder.
More importantly, there were actually words on the pillar, which he never expected.
The most important thing is the word Ruyi.
These two words made him have endless reveries.
Fortunately, there was no golden hoop on the pillar, otherwise he would have thought it was the wishful golden hoop from the myths and legends of his previous life!
Could it be that it is really the Ruyi Golden Cudgel?
Chen Lin suddenly had such an idea in his mind.
Although it is ridiculous, it is not impossible.
The Demon Realm can project everything. It is not impossible to project the Monkey King and the Ruyi Golden Cudgel. If they are really projected, and they happen to be taken out of the Demon Realm and land here, wouldn't it be the Golden Cudgel?
Moreover, the golden pillar still carries the aura of Buddhism, and the Great Sage Qitian is also a Buddha, so the two are quite related.
After thinking for a while, Chen Lin smiled broadly.
This is getting more and more outrageous the more I think about it. Buddhism in this world is completely different from the previous life, and no mythical characters from the previous life have appeared, so it is definitely not a realm, or even a meta-realm.
So far, in the scenes of the demon world that he has been exposed to, he has never seen a character from the previous life. There must be restrictions on the projection of the demon world, so the golden pillar cannot be the Ruyi Golden Cudgel.
Putting aside his unrealistic thoughts, Chen Lin left the Ling Tavern and began to wander around the city.
Although this is the headquarters of Bamen Trading Company, there are also other shops. It is a commercial-oriented city with a comprehensive range of shops, making it a good place to collect resources.
Unfortunately, the Void Refining monks in this world are at the top, so the treasures that can assist in advancing to the Void Refining realm are very rare. It is impossible to buy them in stores. We can only wait to see if they are available at the True Spirit Conference.
.
"Shopkeeper, I want these classics, please give me one!"
Chen Lin came to a shop that specialized in selling various ancient repair books, and after reading the catalog, he said.
"Okay, senior, wait a moment."
Selling classics is a business without capital, and you can't sell many in a day. When Chen Lin wanted to buy it, the shopkeeper immediately beamed with joy.
After taking out all the classics that Chen Lin wanted, the shopkeeper introduced them carefully: "I think the seniors want some classics about the origin of the interface and anecdotes. I also have a special one here. I wonder if the seniors can
interested?"
"Oh? What special method?"
Chen Lin flipped through the classics and then asked.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Senior, have you ever heard of the Historian Turtle?"
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, do you still have such a strange monster in your store?"
The Historian Turtle is a legendary monster that likes to record the information it learns on its back. Because of its long lifespan, it can understand history from the words on its back, hence its name.
But this thing only exists in legends and belongs to the mythical beast. Even if it is a descendant of blood, it must be at least a sixth-level demon, and it cannot be killed easily.
"Senior is joking, how can I have such a thing in this small shop? I just got a text rubbing from the turtle shell of the descendant of the ancient historian Turtle."
The shopkeeper smiled and explained.
Chen Lin became interested and asked: "It's just a turtle shell. How many words can be recorded? And it's a rubbing version. I'm afraid it can't restore all the information, right?"
The shopkeeper shook his head, "I really can't be sure about this. Seniors may not know that the back of the descendant of the historian turtle is immortal text. One character contains countless meanings. This kind of immortal text shop cannot decipher it, so I just use the original version.
For sale, senior, if you want to buy it, don’t say that I lied to you."
"Isn't it a fairy tale? I need to see it. What's the price?"
Chen Lin became even more interested.
The so-called immortal text here is Taixuwen, but this world only has legends about Taixuwen, or a few characters appear in some ancient ruins, but people who can decipher Taixuwen have never heard of it.
The other party just met him, otherwise it would be really difficult to sell, and he would probably be taken as a scapegoat.
In this case, Chen Lin took advantage of him and bought the original rubbing at a high price.
Originally, due to the purity of blood of the descendants of the Historian Turtle, the characters generated were somewhat inaccurate, and the secondary rubbings were even more distorted and prone to errors.
After leaving the shop, Chen Lin had no intention of continuing to shop. He found an inn and rented an independent courtyard. After setting up the formation, he took out the rubbings and looked at them.
The material of this rubbing object is very strange and translucent. It looks like the skin of some kind of creature, but there are almost no lines visible, and the characters printed out are very clear.
However, the characters themselves were somewhat distorted, and they were superimposed on each other. The lines were very confusing. It took Chen Lin a long time to identify the two Taixu characters.
Even so, he was amazed.
He always thought that Taixu script was a script invented by immortals. Now it seems that this kind of script is probably formed naturally or evolved according to the rules of the great road, otherwise it would not appear on the turtle's back.
There were still a few months until the True Spirit Conference, so Chen Lin continued to collect materials while studying the characters on the turtle's back.
Soon, three months passed.
There is no news about the Spiritual Gold Marrow, but there is new progress on the golden pillar.
The information sent back made Chen Lin's expression change drastically!
