Chapter 238 Black Corner
The construction of large-scale teleportation arrays spanning the north and south of the Immortal Realm is cumbersome and requires the personal efforts of the array masters. Currently, there are only three super cities.
And because it is a monopoly resource, outsiders have to pay a huge price if they want to use it.
Chen Lin was mentally prepared, but he didn't expect it to be more difficult than he imagined.
Tian Haifu said with some helplessness: "The cross-domain teleportation array is very tightly controlled by Xuanguang Fairy City. Currently, there are no quotas for release. However, I heard that an auction will be held in a few months, and some quotas will be released. Come out, but if you want to get it, I’m afraid the price will not be small.”
"It doesn't matter!" Chen Lin waved his hand after hearing this, "As long as it's not too outrageous, you can just take the photo. The spirit stone is not a problem."
This quota must be obtained. It's not what he wants to do in the southern world of immortality. , but used as an escape route.
Not only the teleportation quota for this city, but also the quota for the other two super big cities must be obtained.
Anyway, he has no shortage of spiritual stones. If he can buy them, he will buy them to avoid getting blinded when using them.
In order not to attract attention, Chen Lin did not stay too long at the branch. Instead, he found an inn to stay and spent some days browsing around the city.
Then he left Xuanguang Immortal City and traveled to a gathering place of monks closest to his destination, Wanku Mountain.
This is a special place. Although it is a city, it does not have any defensive formations or even a clear manager.
So it was not named after the fairy city, but was called 'Black Horn' by all the monks.
Looking at the dilapidated city wall from a distance, Chen Lin shook his head.
Just by hearing the name Black Corner, you knew it was not a peaceful place. If he didn't want to know more about Wanku Mountain, he would definitely not come.
Although Mu Linglong had been to Wanku Mountain before and the specific places were marked on the map given to him, he still had to understand it himself.
After all, it was a long time ago that the other party went to Wanku Mountain, so there is no guarantee that nothing will change.
"Sir, the terrain inside the city is very complicated. Do you need to lead the way? All you need is two low-grade spiritual stones!"
As soon as Chen Lin walked in from the city gate, there were several people in tattered clothes. Half-grown boys came running over. One of them, the one with the shabbiest clothes, ran the fastest and spoke first.
There seem to be hidden rules in this business. After the little man spoke, the others stopped fighting.
"Oh? I need two low-grade spiritual stones to lead the way. What can you provide?"
Chen Lin glanced at it and found that these children were ordinary people with no cultivation. It seemed that they were just doing this. To make a living.
They have been hanging out at the city gate for many years, and you can tell whether they are new or familiar at a glance.
When the little man heard Chen Lin’s words, he immediately patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, sir, I know everything about everything in this city, including which shops are good and which forces should not be messed with. Your spirit stone is worth every penny!”
“Well, let me see your ability. If you carry it well, spirit stone is not a problem!”
Chen Lin smiled and agreed.
Since it can form an industry, it means there is a reason for its existence. When you go out, you still have to do as the locals do.
"Sir, my name is Wang Erniu. Are you here to buy something or do something else? I would like to introduce you to you."
With Chen Lin's permission, The little man immediately excitedly led Chen Lin into the city, asking with a cautious smile as he walked.
"Tell me first, what are the big forces in this city, and has anything big happened recently?"
Before he came, he had a preliminary understanding of the situation here, but not much. Since the other party claimed to know everything, it would be good to learn about it from the other party's mouth first.
If the other party doesn't lie to him, then he won't be stingy about giving him a few more spiritual stones.
It is too difficult for mortals to survive in this world. It would be better if it was a large and stable fairy city like Xuanguang Fairy City. Although its status was low, it could still make a living.
Those born in such a chaotic place are not so lucky. Life and death are really just a matter of thought, and it is impossible to change the place of survival.
However, although the base of mortals is not very large, the number of monks is quite large. The reason is that the children born between monks have a high chance of possessing spiritual roots.
Upon hearing Chen Lin's inquiry, Wang Erniu immediately replied: "If we talk about the big forces in this city, the three most powerful ones are the Blood Clothes Gang, Baiyao Hall, and Qingfeng Tower. They all have Jindan Zhenren in charge, and they have a large number of people. . But there are a few others that cannot be offended, namely Wanxiang Pavilion, Yaowang Sect, Sanlinghui, Zhenmo Temple..."
"Wait!"
Chen Lin suddenly interrupted the other party and said with a strange look on his face: "What did you just say, Zhenmo Temple?"
He remembered that Tantai Yunjin and others got the news, Hanhai The ancient country existed in the area where the world of immortality existed in the south. He also thought about looking for traces of the Demon-Suppressing Temple when he went there in the future, but he didn't expect to encounter it here.
“What did I just say?” Wang Erniu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said: “Did your Excellency mean the Demon-Suppressing Temple?”
Chen Lin nodded, "Yes, there is a temple here. It's quite surprising. Tell me what it's like."
Hearing Chen Lin's words, Wang Erniu couldn't help but think about it. : "Yes, sir, there is a demon-suppressing temple here. The masters there are very powerful and often distribute food to us mortals. They are very kind-hearted." "Yes, that is rare." Chen Lin nodded, no Keep asking.
Although the other party is just a mortal, he may not be unrelated to any force. He cannot show too much concern to avoid unnecessary trouble.
But he didn't ask, but after Wang Erniu hesitated for a while, he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Sir, I also know a secret. There is something wrong with the monks in the Demon-Suppressing Temple and they will turn into monsters!"
Chen Lin was stunned, stared at the other person and said: "A monk turns into a monster, you can't say this nonsense. How did you know?"
"I saw it with my own eyes!" Wang Erniu looked at it alertly He looked around, and then whispered: "One time I went there to beg for something to eat, and then I had diarrhea and hid in the grass for convenience. I saw two monks from the Zhenmo Temple whose bodies turned black and had sprouts. The fangs are very scary."
Chen Lin's eyes flashed and he said calmly: "This has nothing to do with me, and I don't care about it. Tell me where there are more treasures in this city. Is there any dangerous place outside the city? "
Originally, he wanted to take a look at the Zhenmo Temple. If it was related to Master Nian Kong, he would leave the ashes and cassocks here.
But after hearing what Wang Erniu said, there might be something inside this Demon-Suppressing Temple, but he would not go there again.
Monks are also human beings, and they are divided into good and evil. They may not all sacrifice themselves for others like Master Nian Kong.
Especially for a temple like the Zhenmo Temple, which is responsible for eliminating evil spirits, it is easy for the evil spirits to backfire and fall into the devil's path. He just wants to return the ashes, and there is no need to care about these, and he has no ability to do so.
Wang Erniu was a little frustrated when he heard this. He thought that Chen Lin had special attention to Zhenmo Temple and that he would be rewarded after telling the secret. Unexpectedly, Chen Lin didn't want to hear it at all.
He had no choice but to continue introducing relevant information to make Chen Lin happy and then give him a few more spiritual stones.
Under his diligent explanation, Chen Lin gradually got to know this place.
The forces in the city are very complicated, but each controls a territory or monopolizes a certain business. They can barely maintain a balance with each other. However, it is inevitable to fight against each other. It is not impossible for a certain force to be wiped out overnight. .
However, there are several dangerous places around here, and monks come to explore in an endless stream. Although dragons and snakes are mixed, it is very prosperous, and some rare treasures often appear in the market.
Even if an ordinary person has been here all year round, the information he knows is limited, and it is all hearsay. After asking about it, Chen Lin asked the other party to leave.
However, the secret of the monk of the Zhenmo Temple did have some effect on him, otherwise he would definitely visit it after learning about the Zhenmo Temple, so he rewarded the monk with a few more spiritual stones.
Don’t dare to give too much, don’t reveal your wealth when you go out, especially in chaotic places.
Next, Chen Lin found an inn to settle down and continued to inquire about the news about Wanku Mountain. At the same time, he also collected some materials that were rare in other cities.
After making sure that he had a thorough understanding, he followed the map in the jade slip and came to the place mentioned by Mu Linglong.
Manku Mountain is a collective name for a mountain group, famous for its unique landforms.
There are caves of various sizes throughout the mountain range. The big ones can be used to fly with swords, while the small ones are just like rat holes.
These caves extend all the way underground, but they are not all connected. They are intricate and complicated, and there are many inexplicable dangers. No one knows where they lead.
Even Nascent Soul Lord came to investigate, but could not find the root cause. It was said that he was injured.
Despite this, it still cannot stop the monk's enthusiasm for exploration, because although the cave is dangerous, there are also various treasures, many of which are rare to see. As long as you get them, you can spend the night Get rich suddenly.
In order not to attract attention, Chen Lin did not control the flying boat. Instead, he used flying magic to find his position above the mountains, and landed after confirming the position.
This is a cave that is as tall as a person. Regardless of the shape of the entrance or the surrounding topography, it roughly corresponds to the map.
After confirming, just as Chen Lin was about to enter, he saw several streams of light approaching from far away and falling in front of the entrance of the cave.
Chen Lin frowned. He didn't expect that by such a coincidence, there would be other people exploring the entrance of the cave.
After a quick glance, there were four people coming, all of whom were foundation-building cultivators, three men and one woman, and a monk wearing a monk's robe.
His eyes paused on the monk for a moment, but found nothing unusual.
"Does this fellow Taoist also want to explore this cave? How about we go together?"
The middle-aged man in blue robes among the four glanced at Chen Lin and seemed a little surprised.
"No, I'm just here to observe. I have no intention of entering. Please welcome me!"
In a place like this, Chen Lin doesn't want to team up with strangers, and he can assist in the practice of destruction. The soul is in a special environment, and there is no possibility of it being taken away by others. It doesn't matter if it is delayed for a day or two.
Hearing what he said, the four of them looked at each other, then cupped their hands and flew into the cave.
