Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 154: Demon monk

Views:

Chen Lin disguised himself as a burly old man and looked at a nautical chart while flying.

He was going to a secret swap meet.

Although it is said to be secret, in fact it is not allowed to be seen in the light, and most of the items traded are obtained by killing people and stealing treasures.

Such a gathering is undoubtedly extremely dangerous, but there are many special treasures. Although people have invited Chen Lin before, he always stayed away.

Now, in order to obtain the materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill as quickly as possible, we can only take a little risk.

The inviter this time was called Master Yunhai, who was in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He was very famous among the independent cultivators active in Wuding Sea, and he often held trade fairs without any taboos. Invitations had been sent to his island many times, but he ignored them all.

After all, for a Qi training cultivator, it is too dangerous to participate in such a gathering with foundation-building cultivators, especially in an underground place.

It took a long time to fly near the destination according to the map.

This place has already crossed the protection range of the Poseidon Sect and is between the near sea and the far sea.

Chen Lin did not go directly there, but instead piloted the shuttle and landed on a desolate island without any spiritual veins. After observing for a while and seeing that no one was passing by, he quickly buried a combination of three monkey puppets and Thunderbolt No. 4 on the island.

After burying them, he changed direction and buried three more on another unnamed island.

After imprinting the locations of the two islands deeply in his mind, he flew towards the target island.

"The exchange meeting of Yunhai people is held here?"

When he arrived on the island, Chen Lin saw two monks waiting here and started to ask.

"That's right. Please pay the participation fee of twenty medium-grade spirit stones, and then someone will take you there. The location is not here."

Chen Lin frowned and said, "Shouldn't the two guides show their identity tokens first?"

After he had the idea of participating in the trade fair, he carefully investigated all the information about Master Yunhai, the foundation-building cultivator, and also asked people who had participated in this trade fair. He came here after some analysis and understanding.

"Haha, fellow Daoist is indeed a cautious person. It was we who were careless."

The purple-clothed man among the two laughed and took out a uniquely shaped token. Chen Lin took out the invitation letter and stuck it on the token, which immediately emitted a faint fluorescent light.

Seeing this, he nodded and said, "Then please lead the way!"

Although he spoke boldly, Chen Lin was actually a little hesitant.

It’s not that he felt sorry for the twenty spirit stones, but he was a little worried about the unknown transaction location.

I'm afraid of falling into a trap.

However, after thinking about the several escape talismans in the storage bag, as well as a talisman that he had bought at a high price and was specially used to break various trapped arrays, he felt more confident and took out twenty medium-grade spirit stones and handed them over.

"please!"

After handing over the spirit stones, one of the monks took out a detection magic weapon, shook it on him, and then led him to fly towards the sea.

The transaction took place not on an island, but on the seabed.

Chen Lin had already understood this.

After flying for a while, the other party took out a water-repellent bead and said, "Follow closely!" Then he dived into the sea.

Chen Lin also practiced diving skills, but since he had the water-repellent beads, it was even better. He followed the other party's figure all the way under the water, and finally came near a huge submarine-like ship.

"Come in!"

The other party took out a token and waved it at the hatch, and the door opened, but the surrounding seawater showed no sign of flowing in.

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows and walked in.

The hatch was closed, and Chen Lin quickly looked around the ship and found a corridor in front of him.

Then, a female cultivator in the early stage of Qi training, dressed in cool clothes, came up and said in a soft voice, "Welcome, fellow Taoist. Do you need my little sister to accompany you? As long as you like, my little sister can do anything."

Chen Lin grinned, thought to himself that it was indeed not a serious trade fair, and then rejected the other party's self-recommendation.

The female cultivator acted pitiful and led Chen Lin inside. She gave him another silent look before turning and leaving.

In front of me was a hall with a huge long table in the middle. There were already quite a few monks sitting around it, most of them wearing masks so their true appearance could not be seen.

Some of them even hugged the female nuns who were wearing reception clothes and touched them all over.

Chen Lin took a look and chose an empty seat to sit down. Seeing that no one spoke, he remained silent too.

Soon, new monks came in, one after another, almost filling up the empty seats.

At this time, a radiant man walked out. He looked to be about forty years old. This man was Master Yunhai. Although Chen Lin had never seen him in person, he had seen his portrait.

Master Yunhai came to the main seat, looked around, grinned and said: "Most of the Taoist friends who came this time are pure cultivators. They are not interested in the group of beauties I got with great difficulty. It's a waste of my efforts."

His words immediately caused a burst of laughter.

Someone immediately said, "In this situation, I don't know how long I can live, so how can I have the energy to play with women? If I could find a way to use the cross-sea teleportation array, I would have wanted to leave Tianyuan Continent!"

Chen Lin glanced at the person who was speaking, who was also a foundation-building cultivator.

The other party did not hide his cultivation level, nor did he wear a mask to cover it up.

There was no need to bring it. The other person's neck was covered with fine scales, and there was a round tumor growing above each ear. The characteristics were too obvious, and there was no point in changing his appearance.

In addition, the aura on the other party was also different from the normal foundation building. It carried a faint demonic aura, and it was obvious at first glance that it was a demon foundation building.

Chen Lin was not surprised by this.

During this period of time, he met several cultivators who were building demon foundations.

There are many monsters in the sea and there is no shortage of monster pills. Although the monster fusion method is secretive, it is not completely impossible to obtain. It is normal to have such a situation.

After all, orthodox foundation building is too difficult, and foundation building pills are too rare.

However, the Sea King Sect has a rule that demon-based cultivators must report in advance before entering the core area of the sect, especially the Xuanyuan Island Market, and are not allowed to reside there permanently.

Because the demon-based cultivators have merged with the demon pill, their minds will be eroded by the demonic energy. They will become irritable and angry at the slightest inconvenience, which can easily lead to trouble.

Sure enough, after this person finished speaking, no one responded.

Those who often hang out at sea basically know the drawbacks of demon-based monks, and no one wants to have contact with them for fear of getting into trouble.

Even so, this person seemed to be furious, and said in a cold voice: "Why, everyone looks down on me, Huoyunzi, and thinks it's shameful for me to build a demon foundation!"

Everyone fell silent upon seeing this.

Only one cultivator beside him could not stand the stare, so he forced a smile and said flatteringly: "Senior Huoyunzi has the magical power of the golden toad, who dares to look down on you!"

"You're bullshitting!"

Huoyunzi was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger. When he saw someone picking a fight with him, he immediately slammed the table and said, "You said you didn't look down on me, but what you said is clearly saying that I am a toad. I think you are looking for death!"

After saying that, he slapped him.

The person next to him was only in the Qi training stage, and was immediately suppressed and trembled, with a dazed look on his face.

It was clearly flattery, how did it bring trouble upon myself

Chen Lin also grinned as he watched. He had previously thought about building a demon base, but the idea was immediately extinguished at this moment.

This is not building a foundation, it directly turns into a monster!

"Well, if you want to make trouble, go somewhere else!"

The master Yunhai, who was sitting on the main seat, shouted coldly, stretched out his palm forward, and it turned into a huge palm shadow, blocking Huoyunzi's palm back.

Then he took out a pill and threw it to Huoyunzi, saying, "Take this Qingxin Pill quickly, and don't affect everyone's transaction. If you want to be respected by others, you should commit fewer murders."

Facing the man from Yunhai, Huoyunzi's arrogance suddenly subsided. He obediently ate the pill and then sat there without saying a word.
