It rained heavily with thunder and lightning.
A figure dropped from the sky, complained about the horrible weather, and then went into a dilapidated temple on the side of the road.
This person is Chen Lin.
After half a year, he finally passed through the dangerous area and came to the place where humans lived.
However, because he was worried about encountering strange people and people from the Xuanyin Sect, he did not go through the Black Water Marsh, but instead took a detour through other dangerous areas. As a result, he had deviated from his intended target, and it was unknown whether this place was the State of Chu.
It is not advisable to travel on rainy days. Although flying is not afraid of muddy ground and the shield can prevent rain, it would be bad if struck by lightning.
So he decided to take shelter in this dilapidated temple.
"Um?"
As soon as he arrived at the temple gate, he sensed that there were people inside, and not just one person. It seemed that there were also monks, but the fluctuations of their magic power were not very strong.
He frowned, but walked in anyway.
In half a year, he learned several spells, including the breath-concealing spell.
This spell was found in the storage bag that Luo Qinglan gave him. It was very magical. It could be learned during the Qi training stage, but it could even block the spiritual detection of the foundation building stage.
It is a perfect tool for home travel and playing the pig and eating the tiger. It is simply tailor-made for him.
In addition to this spell, there are also two earth escape talismans, two gold escape talismans, and two water escape talismans, all of which are used to save lives.
When he saw these things in the storage bag, he was speechless.
Although they all suited his taste, he always felt that the other party was mocking him for being afraid of death.
Fortunately, in addition to these, there is also a low-grade spiritual weapon, the Mountain-Splitting Seal, and the most valuable thing - a talisman!
The talisman is a special talisman that can only be refined by Jindan monks. It stores a part of the power of the Jindan monk's innate magic weapon and is extremely powerful.
Both of these items are offensive, which made Chen Lin feel better.
At the same time, he felt a hint of warmth in his heart.
Although Luo Qinglan acted indifferent, she was still grateful and cared about him. It was worth it for him to endure the pain of burning desire and help her exorcise her inner demons.
A bonfire had been lit in the temple, but because the firewood was a little damp, it didn't burn very vigorously.
A group of people were gathered around a fire, drying their clothes, and when they saw him come in, they all looked wary.
Chen Lin took a quick look. There were five people in total, and only one white-haired old man had magical powers, but his cultivation was only at the initial stage of Qi training.
The remaining two middle-aged men and women were dressed simply but had extraordinary temperaments. The woman was holding a pretty little girl in her arms.
In addition, there was a big man with a knife, who looked like a bodyguard.
Chen Lin looked around the area again, and after seeing that there was no danger, he clasped his fists towards the people and said, "I am Chen Lin, known in the martial arts world as the Iron Palm Floating on Water. Sorry to bother you."
After saying that, he lifted his robe and sat aside.
Now that we are far away from Yan Country, there is no need to hide our identities anymore.
Moreover, after he broke through the second level of the Vajra Body Refining Technique, he was able to fight against ordinary foundation building warriors. Even if he was defeated, he could retreat calmly with the help of many treasures. He could finally relax his tense nerves.
Of course, he had to keep a low profile, so he decided to appear as a gangster, find out the situation here first, and then decide on the next plan.
"It's Master Chen. I'm Yang Yuanqing, the Five Tiger Divine Swordsman. Since we're from the same martial arts world, Master Chen, please come over and keep warm together. I'm afraid the weather won't clear up for a while."
The big man with a knife exchanged glances with the middle-aged couple, then clasped his fists and greeted them.
Chen Lin was about to understand the situation, and immediately nodded and said, "Then I'd better obey your command!"
"I see that you are all very impressive people, so why are you staying in this desolate mountain? There are no carriages or horses in sight. Did something happen to you?"
As soon as he sat down, Chen Lin started asking questions.
This fact does arouse suspicion, and any normal person would ask about it, so he used this as a starting point.
After hearing his words, except for the old man in the early stage of Qi training, the expressions of several people changed slightly.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said, "To be honest, I am from Chu. I came to Korea to seek refuge with my relatives because my family fell into poverty. Unexpectedly, I encountered robbers when I was crossing the border. All my property was looted. Fortunately, my servants and guards fought hard to protect me and I barely escaped with my life. So I can only walk all the way."
The other party spoke miserably, but Chen Lin did not believe a word of it.
Even if he was a cultivator in the early stage of Qi training, he was not someone that ordinary robbers could defeat. If they had encountered an evil cultivator, these people and their children would not have survived.
However, in such an occasion, facing a stranger like him, it was normal for the other party to hide something.
However, the word "South Korea" mentioned by the other party made Chen Lin frown.
The so-called Han State is actually a thing of the past. In the past, this country was located between the Chu State and the Cheqi State, and its area was similar to that of the Yan State. But now it has split into countless forces, each acting independently.
I actually came here!
Chen Lin recalled the information about this place in his mind and had a rough idea in his mind.
There are no Jindan cultivators here. Although it is more chaotic than other countries, there is no monopoly by any big force, and the circulation of cultivation resources is better, which is conducive to the development of his talents.
It is also more conducive to concealment. If you can find a safe spiritual vein, it would be a suitable place for cultivation.
Seeing Chen Lin frowning after hearing his words, the middle-aged man glanced at the old man and asked, "I wonder why Mr. Chen is here and where he is going?"
Chen Lin's thoughts were interrupted. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly looked sideways towards the temple gate.
Then the temple door opened and two people walked in with a gust of cold wind.
They were all wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats, so their faces could not be seen clearly.
The two were also stunned after coming in, as if they didn't expect there were so many people inside. However, they didn't care. They shook off the rain on their bodies, took off their hats, and took off their raincoats.
Only then did everyone see clearly that they were actually two women, not very old. One of the women was holding a baby in her arms, who was sleeping soundly.
The middle-aged man and others by the campfire all showed expressions of surprise.
It was really strange to see two young women holding a baby in this remote place.
Chen Lin was also surprised, but unlike the middle-aged man and others, he felt a faint demonic aura from the baby!
A baby with an evil aura made him alert.
He released his perception and carefully examined the two women, and found no power fluctuations. Either their strengths were far higher than his and he could not detect them, or they were just ordinary people.
However, as his knowledge grew, Chen Lin understood one thing: one cannot base anything on one's own subjective assumptions, as there are countless unexpected situations in the world of cultivation.
So he was just guessing and couldn't be sure.
So many people gathered in this small, dilapidated temple in the wilderness all of a sudden, and the atmosphere became subtle.
The two women had no intention of greeting Chen Lin and the others. Instead, they went straight to the other side, took out a piece of fox fur from the package, spread it on the ground, and then placed the baby on the fox fur.
Seeing that the baby did not wake up, the two women were obviously relieved, and took out dry food and water from the package and chewed silently.
Since the other party had no intention of communicating, the middle-aged man and others did not take the initiative to talk, and the scene became quiet.
There was only the crackling sound of the burning campfire.
Suddenly, a baby cried out loudly.
The baby is awake!
