Chapter 384 The Son of an Old Friend
Chen Lin stood on the branch of a tree and looked forward.
Through the gap between the trees and the flames, he saw three figures walking towards his location from a distance.
Obviously he also likes his tree.
This tree is the thickest and tallest in the vicinity. It is at least three thousand years old. The fruits on it are just ripe, so it is normal for people to come here.
These three people can explore at such depths, and their cultivation levels are definitely not low.
Chen Lin immediately took the Black Tortoise Shield in his hand and was on guard.
The three of them are all of normal body shape, and they are wearing robes. The robes look good. Not only are they not afraid of fire, but they have the ability to ward off fire, and the flames wherever they pass are pushed aside.
The magic robe is also a kind of magic weapon. Under normal circumstances, the magic circle above relies on absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to operate. However, the spiritual energy here is mixed and cannot activate the formation at all. So the magic of these three people The robe is specially made and relies on energy bodies such as spirit stones to stimulate the effect.
Normal body shape, robe, spiritual stone.
None of them were commonly used by local monks, so Chen Lin suspected that these three people were outsiders like him.
A little closer, Chen Lin looked surprised when he felt the mana fluctuations of the three people.
It turned out to be just a foundation-building monk!
With foundation building skills and no body refining skills, this area seems a bit weak. No wonder they have to travel in groups.
Thinking of this, he no longer hid, and fell to the ground in a flash.
"Who is it?"
This action immediately attracted the other party's attention, a deep voice sounded, and the three figures stopped at the same time.
Those who can explore these depths are not ordinary people, and there is no need to destroy the body to eliminate traces of people who kill people here, they can be directly cremated, so they are all very cautious.
No need to cover up, Chen Lin directly let go of his consciousness to visit.
It is determined that the three of them are foundation-building monks, but they are all in the late stage of foundation-building, and one of them has reached the level of foundation-building perfection.
Feeling the intensity of Chen Lin's consciousness, the expressions of the three people opposite him suddenly changed.
After looking at each other, the man with tied hair in the middle said respectfully: "I wonder if you will disturb me if you come here again, I will leave right away!"
After that, we started. Back away slowly.
“Wait!”
Chen Lin’s voice sounded, and then he walked slowly towards the three of them.
The expressions of the three people suddenly changed, and they each took out their life-saving trump cards and were about to activate.
"Honestly, don't move. I won't do anything bad to you, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
Chen Lin's voice sounded again, and the three of them hesitated for a moment. Still didn't dare to move.
"What are your names and where are you from?"
Arriving in front of the three of them, Chen Lin casually cast a spell, sealing the surrounding earth fire holes, and the flames were emptied.
The expressions of the three of them were grim.
The man with tied hair in the middle saluted and said: "Reporting to your lord, my name is Han Zuxuan. I am not a local monk, but from overseas. These two people are my companions."
Said After finishing, the two people next to him also hurriedly spoke.
“I’m Zhao Zhengfeng, I’ve met your Excellency!”
“I’m Xu Baixian, I’ve met Your Excellency!”
Chen Lin glanced at the faces of the three people and asked again: "So they are overseas practitioners, where overseas?"
Then his voice became cold, "Don't hide it, I will investigate after leaving here. If you are lying, don’t blame me for being cruel!”
The three people secretly complained when they heard this, but they did not dare to show it at all. It was Han Zuxuan who said: "Reporting to your lord, we are monks from Fanxing Continent on the other side of Wuding Sea. We came here just to find some cultivation resources. We have absolutely no other intention, and we are ready to leave immediately!"
They thought Chen Lin was the leader of a large tribe here, and hurriedly said that they were not here to build power and compete for territory.
Chen Lin's eyes lit up.
It's really great that he is really a monk from the Starry Continent. He was worried about not being able to learn the news there!
He still looked indifferent and said: "I have been to the Starry Continent before. Tell me which fairy city or sect you are from. What are you looking for here?"
Finished He pointed to the man named Zhao Zhengfeng next to him and said, "You answer!"
Zhao Zhengfeng was stunned. , but did not think too much, and immediately replied: "Reporting to your lord, I used to be a monk in Tianyun Immortal City, but today's Starry Continent is no longer what it used to be. Not only has it suffered a catastrophe, but the land is no longer suitable for survival. All humans have retreated to the island."
Chen Lin's eyes flashed.
It seems that the situation in the southern immortal world is not good either.
This is not a place for conversation. He just wants to confirm whether what the three of them said is true or false. He will ask for details after leaving the Flame Mountain.
After thinking for a while, he looked at Han Zuxuan and the two of them and said, "Are you also monks from Tianyun Immortal City?"
Han Zuxuan was the first to speak, "Reply to your lord, we and the three of us It was true that they were all from Tianyun Immortal City in the past, and after the city was destroyed, they moved to the islands in the sea."
Chen Lin nodded, and in his perception, the three of them did not lie.
I just didn't expect that these three people were all born in Tianyun Immortal City.
He asked casually: "There is a female elder named Tantai Yunjin in Tianyun Fairy City. Do you know her?" Then he found that after he asked this question, Han Zuxuan and Zhao Zhengfeng looked at each other. He looked at the young man next to him.
The young man's face showed surprise, and then he said respectfully: "Reporting to your lord, the elder Tantai you mentioned is the master of this junior generation. Do you know my master?"< br>
After speaking, he looked at Chen Lin expectantly.
If their master knew this powerful man who suddenly appeared, then they wouldn't have to worry about their lives.
Chen Lin was really surprised now.
This man named Xu Baixian turned out to be Tantai Yunjin’s grandson.
Suddenly, his expression changed, he looked at the other person and said, "Your surname is Xu, are you a descendant of Xu Zihua?"
"Ah!"
Xu Baixian exclaimed, and immediately knew that he had lost his composure. He hurriedly calmed down and bowed: "Your Majesty is right, the father of this junior is Xu Zihua."
Chen Lin felt sad that he was actually in this place. What a coincidence that we could meet the son of an old friend.
"How is your father now?"
He looked at the other person's face, and it was really similar to the young Xu Zihua, and at this age, the other person was already in the late stage of foundation building. His cultivation and qualifications must be good.
But he found that after he finished asking, the other party became depressed.
Xu Baixian took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Reporting to your lord, my father has passed away many years ago."
Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, recalling the high-spirited young man in his mind.
Given the other party's age, even if he didn't form a pill, he would probably have died in an accident before his lifespan was exhausted.
"Where is Elder Tantai, is she still alive?"
Having been used to seeing life and death, such news could no longer arouse Chen Lin's inner emotions, so he continued to ask.
"My lord, my master is still alive and she is now a late-stage Jindan cultivator."
Tantai Yunjin is still alive, which is good news.
After taking a look at the three of them, Chen Lin said: "I want to know more about the situation in the Starry Continent. You three, please follow me back to Antler City first. If you want to find something, wait until I understand. I will help you find it after we finish."
The three finally breathed a sigh of relief and agreed in unison.
Antlers City.
After half a day, Chen Lin ended his communication with the three of them, feeling extremely emotional.
As expected, as he thought, the situation in the southern world of immortality is not much better, and it is even worse than that of the northern world.
The area near the Great Fissure in Ten Thousand Souls Ridge was completely shrouded in the underworld, and several powerful ghosts appeared. Even the Nascent Soul cultivators did not dare to approach.
However, unlike the northern world of immortality, there is the Wuding Sea in the south, and the strong wind and thunderstorms above the Wuding Sea are the nemesis of the underworld, so the monks moved to the island.
Although there are also submarine demons in the sea, they have been mostly cleared away by the former alliance army, so the living environment is much better than in the north.
Today's southern immortality world is also divided into several large forces.
The first one is Guangming City built by powerful people such as Baihua Fairy and Wanmeng Zhenjun. However, the management of this city is extremely strict, and many monks who like freedom are reluctant to join.
There are many small islands in the sea, and you can survive anywhere if you don't care about your spiritual veins.
The second largest force is the Sea Clan Alliance, which is an alliance formed by special races in the sea like the Seashell Clan. These races have been hidden under the sea before, but now they are revealed and their strength is extraordinary.
The third largest force is the Family Alliance formed by aristocratic families, including bloodline families like Jin Xingyun and hidden families like Ji Wuming.
In addition to these three major forces, there are also the demon clan alliance on land, other immortal cities and sects that are unwilling to give up their inheritance, as well as the forces formed by Yinji monks and Yaoji monks, etc., which are more complicated than the northern world of immortality. many.
Tianyun Fairy City did not merge into Guangming City, but occupied an island, renamed it Tianyun Sect, and developed on its own.
In addition, Chen Lin also found out information about Luo Qinglan.
The other party also did not join Guangming City, but led the old Qingyang Sect to re-establish the mountain gate, and his reputation is not small.
Now that the other party is already a Nascent Soul cultivator, and has super strong bloodline, maintaining the sect’s inheritance will not be a problem.
The other party's obsession was Qingyang Sect, and he wanted to carry forward the sect, and he finally got his wish.
After understanding the information, Chen Lin let the three of them act as they pleased.
The main purpose of these three people coming here is to collect Immortal Send Stones, and they have accepted the task sent by Guangming Cheng Wanmeng Zhenjun. This does not require his help.
There are a lot of Immortal Stones on this continent. It is not difficult to collect them. The difficult thing is how to transport them back.
If the quantity is small, you can carry it with you. If the quantity is large, you have to use a boat.
As a result, the danger of crossing the Wuding Sea would increase infinitely, which was why when he hired people to collect them in the past, he could only bring back a small amount each time.
However, he still had to take care of Xu Zihua's son more or less. He left two communication charms for the other party so that he could ask for help when he was in trouble, provided that he could get there in time.
If the other party can catch up with him on his return trip, he can also take care of him at that time.
In the following days, Chen Lin continued to explore the Flame Mountain and collect bone-eroding fruits.
A few days later, he suddenly received a summons from Xu Baixian. After understanding the content, he looked surprised.
