Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 188: South Gate's Request

Views:

There is another reason why Chen Lin does not want to give up the Gold and Fire Thunder Art, and that is that his main practice requires him to constantly endure thunder tribulations, and thunder tribulations can temper thunder-attributed spiritual objects, making them more perfectly integrated with oneself, and can also increase the strength of the pseudo-thunder spiritual roots.

The spell also records that if enough people are baptized by thunder, there is a slight chance that they can get rid of the false and become real thunder spirit roots.

Spiritual roots are the foundation for a cultivator. How much one can achieve is closely related to the quality of his spiritual roots.

With his four spiritual roots, it took him twelve foundation-building pills to successfully build his foundation. His hope of advancing normally to the Golden Core Stage is very slim.

The thunder spirit root is a special spirit root, which is of great benefit to cultivation. If it can be condensed, the hope of forming a pill will be greater, so no matter how difficult it is, he has to give it a try.

In the following days, Chen Lin began to collect spiritual objects with thunder attributes.

But he soon found that this first step was difficult for him to take.

Any kind of spiritual creature is extremely rare, let alone the rarest spiritual creature with thunder attribute, about which there is no relevant information at all.

Another month passed.

Chen Lin's fiery heart gradually cooled down. He no longer wasted his precious time on this, but focused on practicing.

But just when he gave up, opportunity came to him.

"Who are you talking about?"

Chen Lin looked at his deputy with a look of surprise.

The deputy was called He Yuqing, an eighteen-year-old girl whose cultivation was only at the fourth level of Qi training. However, she was a member of the clan of He Jingzhe, the leader of the Sea King Sect. Not only could he not refuse the greeting from the foundation-building cultivator of the He family, he also took the title of master.

He Yuqing didn't have the airs of a Jindan family member. She was just a branch of He Jingzhe and cherished this identity that didn't involve fighting. She replied respectfully, "Master, it's Senior Nanmen Lingyue from the Xuanyin Sect. She wants to talk to you about something."

"Okay, I got it. Let him wait for a moment. I'll be out right away."

After his apprentice left, Chen Lin couldn't help but frown.

After returning to Danding City, he also inquired about the information of this woman, as well as the information of Ye Jingyun and Xu Ruolan. He secretly inquired about them, but there was no news.

He also asked Zhao Qiankun and Master Yunhai indirectly, but they were evasive in their answers, so he didn't pay any more attention.

Anyway, I only met this girl twice, so there is no need to pay attention to her.

But why did the other party suddenly find him

He was full of doubts, but since the man had already come to him, he couldn't avoid him, so Chen Lin decided to meet him.

"So it's Brother Nanmen, what do you want to talk to me about?"

When Chen Lin came outside, he saw Nanmen Lingyue standing there quietly, looking much thinner than before.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, how are you? I hope I am not disturbing your cultivation by visiting you without permission."

Nanmen Lingyue bowed slightly and forced a smile.

Chen Lin's heart skipped a beat. The more polite the other party was, the more complicated the matter was. Whenever he saw this woman before, she always looked arrogant and cold.

Chen Lin's mind raced, and he immediately said, "With my position, I don't have time to practice. I have nothing to do but make talismans every day. If you have any questions, I may not be able to help you."

No matter what happens, just seal the door first.

If it were in the past, he might still covet the other person's beauty and have some improper thoughts, but ever since he practiced the Three Yang Burning Wood Technique, women have become like clouds to him, so it is better to just out of sight.

Nanmen Lingyue's breath choked. She had never met such a direct person before, and she couldn't help feeling a little angry.

But when he thought about his current situation, he suppressed his anger.

"Friend Lin, there is no need for the giant to come thousands of miles away. I came to you with no ill intentions. I just want to make a deal with you."

"Deal, what deal?" Chen Lin asked puzzledly. He couldn't think of anything about him that was worth the other party's attention.

Nanmen Lingyue did not answer directly, but took out something from the storage bag.

She said to Chen Lin, "I heard from Captain Zhao that Fellow Daoist Lin is looking for a thunder-attributed spiritual object. I happen to have one here. It is the Thunder Apricot Spirit, a rare treasure born from the Thunder Apricot after it was bathed in thunder. I bet there is no better thunder-attributed spiritual object in the entire alliance than my Thunder Apricot Spirit. If Fellow Daoist Lin agrees, this object will be yours."

As he spoke, he turned his wrist, and a jade box covered with sealing talismans appeared in his palm, with arcs of lightning flashing on it continuously.

"What do you want from me?"

Chen Lin was not tempted by the treasure. Although he wanted a spiritual object with thunder attribute, he also had to consider the price. He would not agree if it was too dangerous.

Nanmen Lingyue blushed slightly, but immediately showed her determination and said, "You don't need to give anything else, as long as you agree to practice dual cultivation with me!"

"What?"

Chen Lin felt like he was hallucinating.

The other party came to me on his own initiative and offered me the most precious treasure, just to practice dual cultivation with me

Am I so attractive now

"Fellow Daoist Nanmen, am I right? What I just heard was, double cultivation?"

Nanmen Lingyue's face flushed red with embarrassment. She glanced around to see that there was no one around, and nodded firmly, "Fellow Daoist Lin, you heard me right, and I did not say anything wrong. As long as you agree to practice dual cultivation with me, this Thunder Apricot Spirit will be yours!"

Chen Lin stared at the other person for a while, then said calmly, "Why, fellow Daoist, why did you have to choose me?"

He wouldn't dare to accept something that just happened to be a pie in the sky, but he was very curious about what the other party was thinking.

Everything has a cause. What could make such a gifted girl take the initiative to seek a mate, and so eagerly

Nanmen Lingyue's mood also recovered a little, and she said bitterly: "Doesn't Brother Lin remember what happened in Black Water Lake?"

“Blackwater?” Chen Lin’s heart skipped a beat, but he immediately shook his head and said, “It was too long ago, I can’t remember clearly.”

Nanmen Lingyue became angry again when she heard this. She knew that Chen Lin was lying again. Last time she used her innate ability to test him, he still reacted!

But now she was asking for help, and she felt suffocated and said, "The spiritual fire that you and I absorbed and merged was a yin-yang companion. It was originally used by the ancient great powers to seal the evil spirits. Over time, it was contaminated with evil thoughts. When you and I merged, the evil thoughts were naturally merged into it. I believe that after Brother Lin merged with the spiritual fire, he also had some hallucinations related to my sister, right?"

Chen Lin's eyes flashed, and the sealed scene appeared in his mind again.

It turns out that this picture is not exclusive to him, but is actually shared with the other party

What is this, dual cultivation through a distance

The world of cultivating immortals is so fucking magical!

Not knowing what to say for a moment, Chen Lin could only remain silent.

Now that it was clear, Nanmen Lingyue no longer tried to hide it and said directly: "I don't know what happened after you merged with the spiritual fire, but because the spiritual fire contained evil thoughts, when I used the spiritual fire to build my foundation, I was attacked by the evil thoughts and my foundation was flawed."

Chen Lin understood a little bit. When he merged with the Burning Lotus True Fire Evil, he was entangled by the evil demon's red line, and there was another red line connected to the other party.

The other party couldn't see the red line, so his inference was biased. What allowed the two of them to practice dual cultivation across the air was not the evil thoughts in the spiritual fire, but the red line that connected the two of them.

When he appeared in the dual cultivation scene, he hadn't yet fused the spiritual fire!

After he merged the fire spirit of the Burning Lotus True Fire, he used the power of the fire spirit to eliminate the evil thoughts. He also advanced the Vajra Body Refining Technique to the second level, forming the Burning Lotus True Fire supernatural power.

Therefore, no evil thoughts remained in his body, and naturally he could not feel the other party's troubles.

Thinking of this, Chen Lin couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, he had received the infusion of Master Niankong's relics, which enabled him to win the battle against the evil spirits.

If it weren't for the Buddha's power, he wouldn't have had the opportunities he later had.

Although he had figured everything out and was drooling over the spirit of Lei Xing, Chen Lin still smiled bitterly and said, "I sympathize with Daoist Nanmen's experience, but I cannot agree to your request. I am sorry to disappoint you!"
