One day later.
Chen Lin, who was waiting in the secret room, saw Yuan Zhenhai open his eyes.
“I’ve met my lord!”
Yuan Zhenhai recovered quickly and saluted Chen Lin after standing up.
“How was it?”
Chen Lin looked at the bodies of the three old cultivators next to him and asked.
In fact, he already knew the result without asking, because the life of these three people had been cut off. What he wanted to ask was the way of death of the three people.
Yuan Zhenhai shook his head, his expression gloomy.
Then he said seriously: "Sir, I have discovered a situation. People who are not talented cannot accept the tasks inside!"
"What should I say?"
Chen Lin's expression changed slightly and he asked hurriedly.
Yuan Zhenhai took a breath and said: "After we entered there together, I did not accept the mission first, but guided the three veteran cultivators to operate it. However, after they and the monument guardian reported the mission options, then The monument guard was indifferent."
Swallowing, he continued. Said: "One of the old cultivators named Hu Zhenglai couldn't hold back. In desperation, he tried to touch the monument keeper, but it turned into nothingness on the spot. The other two did not dare to act rashly and kept waiting. In the end, they had no choice but to reject him. Leave, it seems they are all dead now."
Chen Lin was silent.
Actually, he had speculated about this situation before, but thought it was unlikely, so he postponed the test until now.
Of course, there are also reasons why it is difficult to find talented people. Especially after the great recovery, there are fewer and fewer talented people and bloodline monks. Moreover, talented people are regarded as the favored ones of heaven. They have no shortage of training resources and generally will not accept them. Such employment.
"How about you, how do you feel about not taking on any more missions on the stone tablet?"
Chen Lin continued to ask.
With the number of exploration scenes increasing, he is now not sure that the tasks in all scenes are one-time. Food Island has tasks every time he leaves, so he asked the other party to experiment.
If the soul power is strong enough, if there are restrictions, there will be a slight sense of danger when trying to leave.
"That's not the case. I feel everything is normal now. The tasks inside should be one-time."
Yuan Zhenhai answered affirmatively.
Chen Lin felt slightly relieved. This would be better. At least he could check the task content first. If there is no good task, he could not do it.
After thinking for a while, he said: "In that case, let's stop exploring now and wait until we find talented people who are willing to accept employment. As for the remaining old cultivators, those who are willing to leave will be given a sum of spiritual stones. Send them away. If you are willing to stay, leave it to Xi Yuanqiao!"
"Yes!"
Yuan Zhenhai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly agreed.
Now he is also a little afraid of those tasks. It is better not to go.
Leave the rest of the matter to Zheng Xuanqing. Chen Lin took Xiaocao and Yang Zishi back to his cave, and then asked Yang Zishi to guard them, while he took Xiaocao into the Gambling Lake scene.
Without the Origin Ball to enhance his natural ability, he needs to catch a beauty flower before completing the knighthood task. Otherwise, he will have no idea if he only takes Xiaocao with him.
Although the food guardian gave him a token and promised to summon the other party once during the mission, this kind of reliance on others cannot be relied on absolutely. If the other party does not respond to the call by then, he will be caught off guard. .
Grove.
Chen Lin and Xiaocao appeared.
"Huh?"
As soon as he stood firm, Chen Lin saw a figure in the woods. He immediately activated the Soul Armor Technique and the rusty knife fell into his hand.
Xiaocao was even more direct. With a flash of sword energy, he rushed out!
"Don't worry, it's me."
A familiar voice sounded, and at the same time a white light lit up around the figure, showing a defensive posture.
"Xiaocao is back!"
Chen Lin saw clearly who the figure was and immediately called Xiaocao back.
"Haha, you two are too sensitive. If you attack a traveling merchant in the nightmare world, you will be punished by the law of nightmare."
The figure was none other than the traveler who had met Chen Lin several times.
"So it's you, how come you are here?"
Chen Lin did not expect to meet the other party here again, and suspected that the other party was waiting for him. The walking merchant smiled: "Haha, don't get me wrong, there are more people in need of luck items recently, so I come here more frequently."
After that, look He looked at Chen Lin and said: "It seems that your Excellency has developed well. Not only has the hidden dangers in your body been eliminated, but your cultivation and talents have improved rapidly. However, the soul and body do not seem to be well integrated!"
"Oh? Why did you say that?"
Chen Lin's heart moved and he spoke in a deep voice.
The other party's eyes were indeed vicious, and the hidden dangers in his body could be seen at a glance.
He is also looking for the other party, and wants to see if there is any treasure like the elixir for the method. Now that the other party has taken the initiative, it seems that there is really a way.
Hearing Chen Lin's words, the traveling merchant said with a half-smile, "Why do you have to ask questions knowingly? With your current level of cultivation, can you not feel this flaw?"
Then he straightened his expression and said: "As far as I know, in order for your system of cultivating immortals to become a true immortal, your true soul, true meaning and true body must be integrated together. The impact of your flaw is not small. If you don't become a true immortal, you can't." You don’t have much time to turn fiction into reality.”
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows. The other party seemed to know everything. The last sentence should be a reference to the catastrophe a thousand years later. .
However, he did not rush to ask for a solution. Instead, he sneered and said: "I can't believe what you said. Last time, didn't you say that the collapse of the worlds was due to a beam of light? But according to the The information I got later was a little different, and more credible than yours!"
This doubt has long been in his mind, and he met it today, so he just wanted to ask about it.
The traveler said proudly: "Is there anyone in this world who has more accurate information than me? Tell me and listen. If you can prove that what I said is wrong, I can grant you a request!"
"Oh, you said this, don't regret it."
Chen Lin smiled lightly.
Then he told the story about the fairy kingdom in the palm of his hand, and took out the rubbings of the historian turtle and the immortal's manuscripts as evidence. If he could really make a request to the other party, he might gain a lot of benefits.
However, after the foot merchant learned about it, he said calmly: "You can't say that the information you got is inaccurate, but it does not conflict with what I said. Originally, this kind of information requires a fee, but you and I are destined. , I will provide you with some more for free."
Moving his body, he slowly explained: "The information I talked to you here last time was on a macro level, and what you got. , is a lower level.
The Palm Immortal Kingdom you know only refers to the Yuan Domain where you are located. This is just a realm, and it does not even fully cover the entire system of cultivating immortals. There are many, many such realms in the vast universe.
There are also other cultivation systems such as the Demon World and the Wizarding World, which also have different Yuan Domains. "
Speaking of this, the traveler walked to a tree branch, held up a leaf, and said: "And the Yuan realm you and we are talking about are all in these 'leaves'. It is a higher level interface.
Beyond the leaves, there is an unknown space. It may be a creature like us, but with a higher level of cultivation, or it may be a being that we cannot understand. "
At this time, the traveler looked at Chen Lin and said meaningfully: "I will tell you another piece of information for free. Luo is probably the life outside the leaves. When it comes to the leaves, there must be something." The reason is that when you got so many Luo soldiers last time, you should have mastered the energy to restrain Luo soldiers. This energy is also likely to come from outside the leaves! ”
Chen Lin's expression changed slightly.
The energy that restrains Luo is the Soul-Destroying Finger. He has long suspected that this magical power has an extraordinary origin, but now it seems that it is even more exaggerated than he imagined.
If the energy of the Soul-Destroying Finger comes from outside the leaves, then it goes without saying that the Silver Fairy must also come from outside the leaves, or the ancestors of the Yun family came from outside and passed it down from generation to generation.
"What about the nightmare world? What exists inside the leaves or outside the leaves?"
This opportunity is rare. Since the other party is willing to talk, Chen Lin asked again.
The traveler didn't care, and smiled and said: "The nightmare world you saw is just the tip of the iceberg. The nightmare world is everywhere, but they are not related. You will gradually understand this matter. I can't say , I don’t know much.”
Don’t wait for Chen Lin to ask again. , he continued: "I have said enough. If it were someone else, this information would cost a lot of treasures. I don't ask for too much. I just want a favor from you. I hope I can use you in the future." Don’t shirk it when it’s time.”
Favor?
Chen Lin was stunned.
Feng Sanniang from the Music Wine House asked him for a favor before, and now the other party wants it again. When did his favor become so sought after?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Chen Lin's eyes flashed and he asked in a deep voice: "What use do you want my favor for? Could it be that you have seen something wrong?"
"Haha."
The traveler smiled and said: "Don't think too much, I just It’s just self-protection. Not only do I need favors from you, but others also ask for a lot. Big changes are coming, and who can guarantee who will be used? People like you who seem to have some potential will still encounter More people who show their kindness to you."
Chen Lin was a little confused.
He himself doesn’t know what potential he has. The only thing he can take advantage of is probably the talent of destiny and the Thunder God Sword. In terms of potential, it is the talent of destiny!
It may also be the luck talent he showed to the outside world. Although luck is not as good as fate, it is still a top talent, and it is normal for him to be taken seriously.
But if you owe favors, just owe them. A blank check can be exchanged for real benefits, so why not do it. As for whether to help the other party in the future, that will be decided at that time.
"Okay, since you have a sharp eye, I will remember this favor."
Chen Lin agreed, and then immediately said: "But this news is too much for me. It's too far away and of little use. I need something urgently now. I wonder if you can trade it. As long as you can meet my small request, any favors will be fine!"
