Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 228: Grand Ceremony

Views:

Chen Lin looked at the things in the box and couldn't hide his shock, because it actually contained a magic coin!

There are magic coins in the ancient cultivator's cave, which means that the demon world has been connected with this world since ancient times. It is even more likely that this ancient cultivator has a certain connection with the sarcophagus in the mine!

"I want this thing. I'll trade it with you!"

Chen Lin directly put away the box containing the magic coins, then took out a pill and threw it to the other party.

Zhang Yuanqing reached out to take it, thinking that it was just a pill to improve his cultivation, but he was immediately stunned. He put the pill in front of his eyes with some disbelief, and his face became more and more excited.

"Senior, could this be the Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

He had always been paying attention to the Cleansing Marrow Pill as it was one of the most precious elixirs in the Qi training period, so he recognized it at a glance.

Chen Lin said calmly: "Yes, but you can't take such a precious thing for nothing. You have to take me to that cave."

"Okay, okay, I'll take you there right away!"

Not to mention the life-saving grace, even if not, he would do whatever he was told for the sake of the Marrow Cleansing Pill. He has not used this pill yet, but he believes that after using it, he will be able to improve his cultivation to the perfect state, and his hope of building a foundation will increase a lot!

Zhang Yuanqing hurriedly put away the pill, as if afraid that Chen Lin would go back on his word, then flew onto the spirit boat and directed the route towards the ancient cultivator's cave.

Chen Lin opened the spirit boat's shield, increased its speed to the maximum, and soon reached his destination.

The location of the cave is very hidden and is occupied by a nest of monsters. No wonder it has not been discovered yet.

The monster had been killed by Zhang Yuanqing. Chen Lin asked the other party to lead the way, then took out a foundation-building puppet and placed it at the entrance of the cave. He asked the old shopkeeper to guard outside, and he followed him into the cave.

Soon, the two of them walked out.

Chen Lin greeted the old shopkeeper with some disappointment, and controlled the spirit boat back to the city.

The cave was indeed as Zhang Yuanqing said, very small. It was probably opened temporarily and was discovered and occupied by monsters. There was nothing in it except a secret compartment.

In the secret compartment was a box containing fairy stones and magic coins. Chen Lin also used some tricks to make sure that Zhang Yuanqing was not lying.

Although he didn't gain anything else, Chen Lin was very happy to have obtained another magic coin. This way, after he gave one to the Silver Fairy, he would still have one left for himself, which he could keep for emergencies.

As for the Immortal Stone, he had not yet told Yun Haishang about his plan.

This thing was put together with the magic coins by the ancient cultivator. It is very likely that it has some connection with the demon world. We should figure it out first.

And Chen Lin doesn’t have time to care about other things.

The Yuanying Ceremony officially begins!

If one person becomes a saint, all the sects will come to pay homage!

The Silver Fairy, dressed in colorful clothes, looked like a fairy descending to earth, accepting wave after wave of congratulations and worship.

Disciples such as Chen Lin were in charge of receiving gifts and other matters. They had stiff smiles on their faces and were so tired from keeping accounts of the gifts. However, it also made him feel what it meant to be powerful and his passion for cultivation grew stronger.

The worship ceremony lasted for a whole morning, and then the Silver Fairy announced that Chen Lin would be accepted as her disciple, ranking third!

This news made no difference to the cultivators from outside, who could only feel a little envious at most. However, the cultivators inside the Immortal City were all extremely shocked. They wondered what merit Chen Lin had taken to catch the eye of the Silver Fairy.

Especially He Huahai and Lu Yuan, their faces were extremely gloomy.

Lu Yuan was worried that Chen Lin would retaliate against him in the future, or even take away his position as the elder of the Alchemy Hall.

He Huahai felt that the Silver Fairy was estranged from him. He didn't even get any information about this in advance!

"Disciple congratulates Master on his successful Nascent Soul, and hopes that his path to immortality will be smooth!"

Chen Lin followed the formal ceremony of accepting a disciple, paid homage to his master, and then personally presented the gift box he had prepared.

The Silver Fairy took it expressionlessly, glanced at it, and landed on a box in the middle that was covered with sealing talismans.

She was about to put it aside, but she picked it up curiously and opened it to take a look.

"Huh?"

Fairy Bai Yin was surprised and nodded with a smile, saying, "Yes, you are thoughtful."

After saying this, he put away the box and said to the several powerful men watching the ceremony, "I have accepted a new disciple. Would you like to express your gratitude?"

Huanling Zhenjun and others were speechless for a while.

Of course I have to show my appreciation, but originally I just wanted to take out some ordinary treasures as a token of my appreciation. Now that the Silver Fairy has asked me personally, I don't want to be too shabby.

So, several people generously opened their purses and each took out a fine treasure to give to Chen Lin, making Chen Lin so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.

The apprentice-taking ceremony is just an interlude. There are other tedious ceremonies to come. After a short rest, we will continue.

However, Chen Lin's identity has changed. He is no longer responsible for trivial matters with other ordinary disciples. Instead, like He Huahai and Mu Linglong, he always stays around the Silver Fairy and builds closer relationships with representatives of various forces.

In the crowd in the distance, Yunhaishang was watching quietly, his face becoming more and more surprised.

He didn't expect that after these days, Chen Lin had transformed from a nominal disciple to a true disciple. This was a huge leap in status.

"What is so special about this person that he could be favored by Yuanying Zhenjun?"

The people in Yunhai were puzzled.

When he was in Danding City, he was just an ordinary cultivator, who at best knew some skills in making talismans and refining pills. Such skills were nothing at all. After a cultivator reached the foundation-building stage, he would have to learn a few common skills, it was just a matter of whether he was proficient in them or not.

The other party was not even on the first list of retreat, which shows that he has no connections or status in the alliance. Unexpectedly, he would be so successful after arriving in the Starry Continent.

"Since a space node from the demon world has appeared here, no matter if it's useful or not, we still have to make friends with it. We never know when it might be useful in the future."

Yunhaishangren's eyes flickered slightly, and he made a decision in his heart.

After all the ceremonies were completed, it was time for the final stage, where the Silver Fairy gave a sermon in person.

It is a rare opportunity for a Nascent Soul master to speak in person, and many cultivators come here for this opportunity. Whether on the mountain or at the foot of the mountain, all the cultivators quiet down and listen attentively.

The Silver Fairy used her magical power to transmit her voice to the whole city. She started from her first contact with the cultivation method and shared her understanding of cultivation without reservation. She talked about everything from the Qi training stage to the Dan forming stage. She explained in a simple and easy-to-understand way and went straight to the core, which benefited many cultivators and opened their eyes.

There were even many low-level cultivators who broke through on the spot, and for a moment the entire city was filled with energy fluctuations of breakthroughs.

The sermon stopped only when the sun set in the west. All the monks looked as if they were still not satisfied.

After the ceremony, things got busy again.

As a newly promoted true disciple, Chen Lin had to appear in more places and was busy until midnight.

Exhausted, he returned to his residence and took the time to rest and get enough energy to prepare for tomorrow's auction.

This auction is grand and of high standards. He has accumulated quite a bit of wealth in the past two years, so he plans to buy some good things and also sell some items.

The next day.

Chen Lin gave instructions to the old shopkeeper and then planned to go to the auction.

This auction was organized by He Huahai. Of course, he was not the only one in charge. He had also teamed up with more than ten famous shops in the city, so there was enough manpower and Chen Lin's participation was not necessary.

Unexpectedly, before he even reached the venue, he received a message from Mu Linglong, so he had to walk towards the City Lord's Mansion.

"Good morning, Senior Sister!"

When he saw Mu Linglong, Chen Lin immediately greeted her warmly. Now he and she were on the same front, and the relationship had to be maintained.

"How is it, how does it feel to be a true disciple?"

Mu Linglong teased with a smile, without any of the airs of a Jindan cultivator.

Seeing this, Chen Lin also let go of his reservedness and said with a smile: "Of course it is great. I would like to thank you again for your support, Senior Sister."

Then he asked, "I wonder if Senior Sister has any instructions for me?"

Mu Linglong waved her hands. "It's not me who's looking for you. It's Master who's looking for us two. But right now Master is talking to Senior Huan Ling and the others. Let's wait here for a while."

Since it was the Silver Fairy who summoned him, Chen Lin had to wait no matter how long it took. He could only give up the idea of going to the auction and send a message to the old shopkeeper, asking him to send someone to look into the items he wanted to buy.

Then Mu Linglong started chatting in the hall.

After chatting for a while, Chen Lin suddenly asked, "Senior Sister, have you ever heard of the three items, Fish Demon Grass, Immortal Stone, and Lingyu Flower?"

Mu Linglong thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "No, I haven't heard of any of them. Why, Junior Brother, do you need these items? I can keep an eye out for them for you."

Just as Chen Lin was about to speak, he suddenly heard a man's voice, "Where did you get the names of these three items?"

Then, the Silver Fairy came out with two men.

The two of them hurriedly stood up and greeted each other.

It was True Lord Huanling who spoke just now. After greeting him, Chen Lin said, "Reporting to you, Senior, a friend of mine asked me to help buy these three items, and he also told me the names."

Huanling Zhenjun stared at Chen Lin for a while and said, "Did your friend tell you the use of these things?"

Chen Lin didn't know what the other party meant, but he would not hide anything for Master Yunhai, so he immediately said, "That's not the case, but there is an illustrated guide."

As he spoke, he took out the illustrated book he had obtained from Master Yunhai.

Huanling Zhenjun took a look at it and nodded, saying, "Yes, the painting is somewhat similar, but your friend is not close to you."

He casually threw the illustrated book to Chen Lin and said, "Fish Demon Grass was a favorite food of a race called Fish Demon in ancient times. It has no value to cultivators. As for Lingyu Flower, it is even more of a legendary thing. It is unclear whether it exists or not. So the other party's real purpose should be the Immortal Stone."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fairy Silver said, "The Immortal Stone is something that can only be used in the Demon Realm. Since the other party is collecting this thing and has come here at this time, it seems that he also wants to go to the Demon Realm. What is your friend's name?"
