When they heard Chen Lin's response, everyone's eyes immediately fell on him again.
Chen Lin examined the snow-white man's face. There was light flowing on his horn, as if he was using some kind of ability.
Then, with a strange look in his eyes, he asked, "Could you please tell me where you got this information about the Great Projection of the Heavens?"
Then he explained, "This matter is of great importance after all, so please don't hide it. If you tell us about it, everyone can refer to its accuracy, which will also be beneficial to you."
Chen Lin thought for a moment and said, "The news comes from a place called Food Island. Has anyone heard of it?"
He was actually not sure about the accuracy of the news, so it would be best if he could verify it.
Although Feng Sanniang had a special identity and the letter was left for Gege Yun, it should not be fake. However, after all, it was not given to him by the other party herself, but by a bartender, so the authenticity of the letter was questionable.
Of course, the possibility of being replaced is very small, but even if it is true, Feng Sanniang's words were ambiguous and not certain. The letter only said that there were obvious signs of the great projection of the heavens, but did not say that it would definitely appear.
"Gourmet Island?"
The white man's eyes lit up, and he looked at Chen Lin and said, "Have you been to the Food Island? Do you have any food with you?"
Chen Lin glanced at the other party and was about to speak when he was interrupted by the emerald green creature: "Mr. Xue, please wait a moment before trading. It is better to confirm the matter of the Great Projection of the Heavens first. This is related to how we will deal with it next. If we don't figure it out, everyone will be uneasy and I'm afraid we won't be in the mood to trade."
The snow-white man frowned and said in a cold voice: "What else can we confirm? The food guardian of Food Island is still alive. How can the guardian of information like the Great Projection of the Heavens not know about it? Since it comes from there, don't be optimistic!"
Everyone's faces turned grim.
If the news came from the Guardian, then there would really be no need to question it.
Chen Lin's eyes flashed, but he didn't explain further.
Regardless of whether the news is accurate or not, he just needs to act according to the truth.
And only if it is true, the people here will feel a sense of urgency and go out to hunt Luo monsters to gain merit. In this way, he can not only hunt Luo monsters in the chaos, but also buy more Luo monster origins, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
As he remained silent, everyone thought that the message was really sent by the guardian and stopped worrying about it.
The snow-white man looked at Chen Lin again and said, "This friend should have some star-level delicacies, can you trade some to me? I've been trapped in this place for hundreds of years and I've almost forgotten what delicious food tastes like!"
Chen Lin pondered for a moment and said, "I do have some delicacies, but since Master Xue knows about the Food Island, he must also know that any star-level food is very expensive!"
Glancing at the other party, he added, "And each type of star-level food has different effects. I wonder which type you want, and what you want to exchange for it?"
The snow-white man showed a look of surprise.
With a happy look on his face, he said, "It seems that you have a lot of delicious food on you. How about this, after the transaction is over, we will go to the Dawn Inn to discuss in detail."
Chen Lin nodded in agreement.
The other party's suggestion was not necessarily because they knew that he was staying in the Dawn Inn, but rather that whenever the people in the camp wanted to have long-term contact or make large transactions, they would choose the superior rooms in the Dawn Inn.
After all, there is no need to worry about contamination by parasitic species.
Except for Mr. Snow, no one else seemed to understand what the food on Gourmet Island represented, so no one was interested and started trading other items.
Chen Lin watched quietly.
Master Wan Meng successfully traded the Dream Pearl for an Exorcism Stone as he wished, and he also learned the uses of these two things from the other party's telepathic explanation.
The Dream Pearl is a kind of energy body condensed by the other party. It can form a dream space and allow people to practice in dreams. It is very magical.
It was not easy to communicate the specific effects here through voice transmission, so he did not ask much. He would find out when he returned.
As for the exorcism stone, it is used to resist the evil aura of Shura that can cause body mutations, and is a consumable.
The appearance of this item made Chen Lin immediately understand that the people here were not helpless against those high-level monsters, but they had been hiding in the camp and not going out because they just didn't want to take risks.
In addition, according to his understanding, there are people who complete their mission and leave here every year.
Of course, many more died.
After learning about the function of this exorcism stone, Chen Lin lost interest.
This item is only effective against Shura's aura, but not against Youluo and Tianluo's abilities. It can only protect the body from mutation, but cannot protect the soul.
In other words, if you want to use this item to deal with Shura monsters, your soul resistance must be strong enough.
The transaction continues.
Treasures were taken out one by one.
Even though there were only twenty participants, they took out a lot of treasures, all kinds of strange and varied.
Chen Lin also made some appropriate moves and traded for two items.
A green scale as big as a washbasin, and a purple flower that exudes a fragrant scent.
He didn't know what these two things were used for, but they looked very high-end, and the seller was willing to trade with magic coins, so he took the opportunity to buy them.
Anyway, I have no shortage of magic coins, so it’s a good idea to buy some and keep them as backup.
Although the store on Food Island has been closed, but the operation over the years has also earned him a huge amount of magic coins. Excluding the one million used to exchange for the large origin, there is still a lot left.
After all, his spiritual buns have zero cost and are priced high. Even if he only sells one basket a month, the accumulation of more than a hundred years would be an astronomical figure.
As for his salary as a first-class civil servant, it was negligible.
Even though magic coins are hard currency in the demon world, they cannot be used in all scenarios. If you come across a place where they can be used, you should not be reluctant to spend them.
The trade fair lasted for two hours before it came to an end.
Some people showed satisfied smiles, while others looked gloomy.
Chen Lin was in a good mood and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Not only did he acquire several copies of the Luo monster origin, he also learned about the treasures of different systems in the heavens and all realms. This would be of great help to him when he leaves the world of immortal cultivation and enters a higher realm in the future.
The higher you go, the more important experience becomes.
"Okay, everyone has almost finished their trades, right? If anyone needs anything, please bring it out. If not, we'll adjourn the meeting!"
The emerald green creature spoke in a deep voice.
He failed to trade for Master Xue's fake source treasure, and seemed a little unhappy, and his tone was not very good.
No one reacted.
The treasures that should be taken out have already been taken out. Everyone has been trapped here for quite some time, and some necessary supplies have been almost consumed. The remaining ones cannot be used for trading.
Chen Lin hesitated for a moment and stood up.
He looked around first, then said, "I'm short of a few things. Let me tell you about them first. You can come and trade with me whenever you need them."
"Oh? What does Fellow Daoist Chen need? Tell me about it."
Another human monk echoed.
As both of them were cultivators at the level of Refining Void, the things they needed might overlap, so he became interested.
Chen Lin didn't say anything more. He clasped his fists and said, "What I need are the Time Sand, the Eight-Armed Circumvention, various items of luck, the Pure Origin Ball, the Endless Water, the True Spirit Blood, and various spiritual herbs and medicines!"
He finished speaking in one breath and explained, "Any of these things will do. If you have them, you can trade them now. You can also come to the Dawn Inn to find me later. I live in the superior room number three and I'll be waiting for you anytime!"
After looking around, he added: "If there is no treasure, those who can provide accurate information about the treasure can also be rewarded a certain amount!"
After saying that, he sat down.
But to Chen Lin's disappointment, there was no response.
After waiting for a while and seeing that still no one spoke, the emerald green man announced the end of the trade fair, and everyone left one by one, starting from the first seat.
This way of leaving is also customary to avoid contact with each other.
Chen Lin and Master Wan Meng walked all the way back to the inn.
He asked the blind girl to go back to her room first, and he and Master Wanmeng entered each other's house to ask about the Dream Pearl.
Since the other party can sell this thing, it is not a private matter. There is no problem in asking.
Master Wan Meng did not hide it and explained: "Fellow Daoist Chen may not know that I have a unique physique. I call it the dream body. It can utilize and control the energy of dreams to a certain extent."
Chen Lin looked surprised.
He immediately asked, "Is dream also a kind of energy?"
According to his understanding, dreams are the remnants of a person's thoughts. As the saying goes, whatever you think about during the day you will dream about at night. How could this thing also be a kind of energy
Master Wan Meng nodded: "Although it is incredible, it does exist."
Then he smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, even I find it hard to believe, but I can indeed communicate with this power. Moreover, from the beginning of my cultivation till now, I am the only one who possesses this ability. I cannot even find someone to communicate with."
Chen Lin frowned, feeling that the world was becoming increasingly confusing.
There are so many things that make no sense.
He changed his mind and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he looked at the other party and asked, "So how far have you come? Is this power strong enough to attack?"
"Not much offensive power."
Master Wan Meng shook his head and explained, "This ability is more of an auxiliary function, and my spirit body is at a very low level. I have never found a way to improve it, so the power I can use is limited."
After a pause, he continued, "I used to think that the Demon Realm was also a dream, and that it was connected to my power, so I explored the Demon Realm vigorously, hoping to find a way to improve. But as I explored more, I found that the Demon Realm was not a dream, and the projection of dreams was just a rule effect of the Demon Realm. But I also gained a lot of benefits from the Demon Realm, so I kept exploring."
Chen Lin nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.
What the other party said was very vague and might have some reservations, but he was just curious and did not try to pry into the other party's secret thoughts.
