Chapter 212: Strange Treasure
The current situation in the world of immortality here makes Chen Lin very helpless.
It doesn’t matter that the demons and monsters are rampant, the monks themselves are still fighting happily, what is their purpose, if this continues, the human race will be extinct sooner or later.
Take the current Silver Fairy City as an example. Due to frequent changes of city owners and neglect of management, the mortal villages and towns further outside the city are basically empty of people. Most of them are hunted by demons, and the rest are not No one dared to live outside, so they all ran to the city.
Those who could not enter the city built residences around the city, forming large shantytowns.
Mortals are dying off in large numbers. The result is that there are fewer newborns with spiritual roots, and naturally there are fewer monks. Moreover, it is not safe outside. The farmland that was originally opened has been abandoned, and even some spiritual fields are not taken care of. , food is in short supply in the city.
I don’t know what other immortal cities are like. If they are all like this, we must find a way to go to the southern immortal world as soon as possible.
Chen Lin made a decision secretly, but there is no need to rush yet.
These problems only have a great impact on low-level monks. He can still maintain it as a foundation-building monk.
High-level monks can survive for a long time without eating or drinking. If that doesn't work, they can also use Bigu Pill. They can also go to the wild to hunt ferocious beasts and monsters for food. In short, there is no need to worry about the problem of food.
In addition, although this place is chaotic and lacks basic resources, it is very rich in cultivation resources. There are all kinds of resources in the deep mountains and old forests. You just need to have the courage to get them. Getting rich overnight is not a dream.
After understanding the general idea, Chen Lin settled down in the city temporarily.
No matter what, it is better to have a big tree at your back to enjoy the shade and a strong city lord to protect you than to find a place to practice outside.
A few days later, Chen Lin bought another small shop and became the boss.
He couldn't leave for the time being, and he didn't want to be too conspicuous, so he decided to use this identity to collect a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and he could also sell pills and talismans for practicing.
And if you want to live in the city for a long time, there are no restrictions at all. Renting a shop can be considered a contribution to the city and you will not be kicked out.
"Proprietor, this is a summary of the news in recent days, please take a look!"
A white-haired old man knocked on the door respectfully and entered the house, handing over a pamphlet.
The rented shop is not big, but it has a layout of one and two floors. Because the entire city is built on a small high-grade spiritual vein, the second floor is used by Chen Lin as his own dedicated training ground.
He himself would not waste time running the shop, so he also recruited a knowledgeable and skilled Qi-training veteran cultivator as the shopkeeper, and hired two young female monks as clerks. He just I only go down there occasionally.
Collecting information is also a task assigned by Chen Lin. He requires the old shopkeeper to record the major events happening inside and outside the city every few days and submit them to him. If something special and surprising happens, report it immediately.
"Okay, I got it." Chen Lin nodded, took out a stack of talismans and handed them to the other party, saying: "Sell these talismans sparingly, just take out two every day, the key point is to charge more Some of the materials I handed over."
"Yes!"
The old shopkeeper bowed out respectfully.
Chen Lin picked up the book and read it slowly.
Suddenly, he was stunned and looked at a portrait in the booklet.
This is a wanted order, but it was not issued by Silver Fairy City. The issuer was the master of Batu Caves, thousands of miles away from this city.
The Black Wind Cave is also a big force. The cave owner, the Cang Yuan King, has a perfect cultivation base of the golden elixir. Before the Silver Fairy became the city lord here, the other party was the strongest in this area.
Those three big black bears are the other party’s men.
He had always suspected that the three big black bears were monks pretending to be monks, but in fact they were not. They were demon monks, and they had transformed into that appearance over time.
Not only the three bears, but also the entire Batu Cave are composed of Yao Ji monks and are the base camp of Yao Ji monks.
It is also said that there is Yinfeng Valley further away, which is a force composed of Yinji monks, which is also extraordinary.
It can be seen that the foundation building of the left path is more common here, even to the extent that it can compete with the foundation building ceremony of the right path.
This shows that there is a more complete method of inheritance here. Of course, it also proves that Foundation Establishment Pills are still in short supply, causing the monks to find other ways.
The rate at which the Foundation Establishment Pill can become a pill will never increase.
Chen Lin thought about the large pile of foundation-building pills and more alchemy materials in his storage bag, and he couldn't help but feel confident.
Unfortunately, such scarce materials are destined not to be sold in large quantities, otherwise they will be in trouble.
Even if nothing is done, the trouble has already come.
Chen Lin held the wanted notice in his hand. On it was a picture of a muscular man with a big, shiny head and a black spaceship at his feet. Who else could it be if he wasn't the one?
However, the quality of this portrait is not very good. It may be that the memory of the big black bear is biased. In short, the painting does not look like him at all.
Besides, after such a long time, his hair has long grown out, so it is impossible to identify him based on this portrait.
Looked at him and put it aside.
Don't say it's not certain, it doesn't matter even if it is certain. The city lord of Silver Immortal City and the Cang Ape King are sworn enemies, and they fight openly and secretly. If he goes out and admits it, he might even get a reward.
Of course, he would not do such an aggressive thing. But he didn't stand out, and some people liked to stand up. A few days later, the old shopkeeper sent another information booklet, and someone admitted that he was the person on the wanted order and claimed to be responsible for killing the two demon monks.
And there are two more.
One is called the Red Fire Immortal, and the other is called the Black Lotus Ancestor.
The names sound majestic, but they are actually two foundation-building monks, and they are also evil cultivators.
The two of them probably did this to clear their names, see if they could collect a wave of rewards, and at the same time increase their own deterrence.
As for enmity with Batu Cave, it doesn’t matter. The monks of Silver Fairy City have been fighting Batu Cave for a long time.
Chen Lin was also happy that someone had diverted the trouble. After reading for a while and seeing that there was no new information, he threw the book aside and took out an oval golden object with cracks.
This thing was what the three big black bears used to trap him. If it hadn't been for this thing, he wouldn't have had to use the talisman at that time and could have run away directly.
Originally he thought it was a high-level spiritual weapon, but it was not.
There is a special category for such items, called exotic treasures. They are treasures formed after some specific species are refined and can possess the special abilities of the original species.
The use of such treasures requires special imperial treasure techniques, and the power depends entirely on the species itself.
For example, this treasure is a cocoon formed by the one-eyed golden silkworm of the alien beast. When it is about to emerge into a butterfly, it is refined using a special method. After being stimulated, it can be turned into gold threads, forming a golden net to imprison the enemy.
According to his personal experience, this treasure is more powerful than a top-grade spiritual weapon, and has reached the level of a top-grade spiritual weapon. If he had not activated the talisman given to him by Luo Qinglan at once, I am afraid that all This thing cannot be broken.
After playing with it for a while, Chen Lin sighed and put it away.
This thing has been damaged, and we don’t know how to repair it yet. Moreover, using this kind of rare treasure requires special royal treasure techniques. It is impossible for him to go to the Cang Yuan King to get it. He probably won’t be able to use it. .
Next, Chen Lin entered into the practice of intoxication.
A year passed quietly.
On this day, Chen Lin opened his eyes in the training room, and a flash of light flashed by.
His cultivation actually broke through the third level of foundation building!
It hasn’t been too long since he broke through to the second level of foundation building. He thought it would take several years to polish before he could try to break through. Unexpectedly, his cultivation progressed very quickly in this year, and there was a bottleneck on the third level. It was as if it didn't exist, and it succeeded naturally.
After thinking about it, he felt that it might be because after absorbing the energy of the Yin spirit, the soul grew stronger and fed back into the body.
In addition to the sudden increase in cultivation level in a short period of time, his thinking has also become more and more sensitive. These are all changes that occurred after leaving the Yin Spirit Land.
This made Chen Lin sigh with emotion.
Sure enough, high risk means high reward. Although the ghost ship is scary, the rewards after leaving according to the rules are also huge.
However, he would rather not receive a reward than take such a risk. The best way is to rely on his own talents to develop in peace and stability.
After entering the third floor of the foundation building, the feeling of fullness of soul no longer existed, and the growth of cultivation began to become normal. Chen Lin did not continue to retreat, but began to stay in the shop while training. State of mind, while increasing knowledge.
The days were as calm as water, but Chen Lin felt extremely comfortable.
In addition to refining elixirs and making talismans every day, I also study various spells. How leisurely and comfortable.
A few months later, somewhere outside the city.
Boom!
A burst of lightning flashed, and Chen Lin's figure immediately disappeared on the spot. The next moment, he had appeared dozens of meters away.
Another flash, and he was back to where he was.
Chen Lin looked at his position and after confirming the accuracy, he suddenly showed excitement.
This Thunder Escape Technique is indeed well-deserved. It moves with almost no trace, just like teleportation!
After the Thunder Apricot spirit was completely integrated, he has been studying the Thunder Escape Technique, and now he has finally reached the level of entry.
Although you can only escape dozens of meters now, as long as the position is accurate, it can have an unexpected effect in the battle!
And as his understanding deepens, he can escape further.
The only regret is that the Thunder Apricot Spirit forms only pseudo-spiritual roots after all. It can only store the power of thunder for backup, but cannot mobilize the thunder attribute energy between heaven and earth at any time, and its storage ability is also limited. , can't support a few uses
But no matter what, this is an excellent means of saving life. It must be practiced frequently to achieve smoothness and smoothness of sending and receiving.
In the following days, Chen Lin became more and more leisurely, leaving the store to the old shopkeeper. In addition to practicing, he would also go around to browse the scenery and relax.
The life was relaxed and fulfilling.
However, what Chen Lin did not expect was that such a peaceful life did not last long before it was broken by a message!
