Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 272: Mutation

Views:

Chen Lin stood on the top of the mountain, staring blankly at the wooden hairpin in his hand, without moving for a long time.

According to Alan, there is a soul stored in the wooden hairpin, and it must be the plump woman from Guqiao Village.

I didn't expect that the other party actually exists and is Alan's sister. If so, the Huangquan Tulingbao may not be as simple as everyone knows.

Chen Lin sighed and was about to see if he could awaken the soul in the wooden hairpin when he felt the void in the distance shake and the mirage reappear.

But this time it was different from before. Not only was the scene clearer, but the scope of the impact was also extremely wide.

At the same time, the key to enter the secret realm, a long piece of jade, also lit up.

Seeing this, he hurriedly placed the wooden hairpin into the soul-nourishing liquid and flew towards the secret realm.

It was not just him. Countless lights appeared in the surrounding mountains and rushed towards the mirage. As soon as they approached the range of space fluctuations, the figures disappeared out of thin air.

There were also some who didn’t have keys but were unwilling to give it a try, and their keys were simply bounced open.

Chen Lin felt his body tighten, and then he appeared in a dim space.

Evil, dark, depressing and cold.

All kinds of uncomfortable smells mixed together, and there was no such fairy-like feeling as seen from the outside.

His face changed and he immediately landed on the ground, took out the Heavy Mountain Shield and the Red Fire Sword, and at the same time let the nine foundation-building puppets form a formation to protect him.

This situation is completely different from what is recorded in the classics. Either he was deceived, or something has changed here in the past five hundred years.

But no matter which one it is, it won't be good.

If one wants to leave here, the secret realm must be opened until the end of the time. According to records, it is half a month, but in the current situation, it is still unknown whether one can get out.

"What's going on? Why is it like this here?"

"No, this is not the secret realm of the Vast Sea Immortal Palace!"

Suddenly, bursts of exclamations were heard from afar, which seemed very noisy. It seemed that several monks had gathered together.

Seeing this, Chen Lin immediately came over and wanted to find out what was going on.

But before he could take a few steps, a huge tentacle suddenly appeared in the darkness and swept towards him.

The tentacle appeared very suddenly, but fortunately the formation puppets had been surrounding it and used a combined attack technique to block the attack.

But because of this, the two puppets in the front had their structures damaged and lost their ability to move.

Unable to form a formation, the power of the foundation-building puppet was suddenly greatly reduced, and there was no time to repair it. Chen Lin could only put away the foundation-building puppet, then activate the heavy mountain shield and hang it in front of him, guarding against the tentacles appearing again.

Not only was he attacked, but the person who was speaking also let out a scream, and then several figures fled in all directions.

But more tentacles appeared and rolled towards the fleeing monks.

Rays of spiritual light lit up, mixed with angry shouts. Several people repelled the tentacles' attacks, while the rest were caught by the tentacles and pulled over with screams.

Dark shadows appeared in the dimness, looking like big insects with two huge tentacles. The monks who were rolled back by the tentacles were stuffed into their mouths, making crunching sounds of chewing.

Chen Lin couldn't recognize what kind of monster it was, and he had no ability to save people, so he immediately spread out his body and flew away with the other survivors.

But it was too late.

In the distance, countless dark shadows appeared.

They are surrounded!

"open!"

A monster was blocking Chen Lin's way. He growled and urged the Red Fire Sword to chop it down.

The sword light with a scorching breath slashed on the tentacle, but it only left a shallow scar. Instead, the monster became more violent due to the pain, and the other tentacle also surrounded it, making a buzzing sound.

It was then that Chen Lin discovered that the monster's tentacles were covered with densely packed small holes, and the vibration made a sound that made people uneasy and dizzy!

However, this level of mental attack had no effect on him. The abnormality was eliminated after the power of the Dharma was activated.

The Golden Body Transformation magical power was used, and the body turned light gold and expanded greatly. With the power of the Dharmakaya, the big hands like a cattail leaf fan grabbed the two tentacles one by one.

“Go to hell!”

Chen Lin shouted loudly and poured strength into his arms. He grabbed the two tentacles and swung them hard, lifting up the body of the strange insect. Amid the insect's screams, he smashed it hard to the ground.

one time.

Twice.

Three times!

The ground was hit with a bang, and he didn't stop until the tentacles in his hands became limp and lifeless.

The noise made by this operation was so loud that it startled the other insects in the distance. They all showed expressions of panic. The other few surviving monks took the opportunity to escape.

Chen Lin did not pay any attention to the bugs. Instead, he dragged the body of the bug closer, took out a large space storage bag, put the bug in it, and left quickly.

Perhaps frightened, the remaining insects did not chase after it.

Chen Lin flew a long way before stopping, hiding in a secluded place, and took out the crow puppet to investigate the situation.

Then his face turned strange.

If the map he bought before was correct, this really was the secret realm of the Vast Sea Fairy Palace!

This secret place has been explored by our predecessors, so naturally there will be a map passed down. Although it may not be very complete, it is still possible to confirm the environment.

According to the comparison, his current location is in the marginal area and is still far away from where he wants to go.

However, although this place is still a secret realm, it is obvious that a huge change has occurred. Chen Lin did not dare to act rashly and decided to observe the situation for a while.

Then he took out the formation flags and set up an isolation magic circle, and then took out the body of the big insect.

After inspecting for a while, I found that there was nothing special about this creature except that its two tentacles were particularly long. If I had to say what was special about it, it would be that there was a piece of black hard bone the size of a palm on its chest with an unknown pattern on it.

What flowed out after dismemberment was not red blood, but a black, sticky liquid with a disgusting smell.

After searching everywhere and finding nothing similar to the demon pill, Chen Lin then used the Burning Lotus True Fire to burn the minced meat into ashes.

Then he was stunned and picked up a bone fragment from the ashes. It was the one with the pattern on the monster's chest.

This thing could actually remain intact after being burned by his Burning Lotus True Fire, so it must not be an ordinary thing.

After looking at it for a while and not seeing anything, he put the bone fragment into his storage bag to study it later.

After removing the formation and taking a tour, Chen Lin started on his journey.

No matter what, now that we are here, we should go to the destination and take a look. We can't just hide here forever.

This time he did not dare to fly, but used the sprint technique to walk quickly on the ground. After walking for a while, he used the crow puppet to explore and only moved forward again after ensuring it was safe.

After walking and stopping like this, I really didn't encounter any other monsters or other monks.

Suddenly, Chen Lin stopped.

A pool of water appeared in the crow puppet's field of vision, with a few fluorescent spots in it, which looked like some kind of rare treasure.

A look of delight appeared on his face, and just as he was about to control the puppet to move forward for a closer look, he saw a red light flash, and the puppet's vision was interrupted.

Chen Lin frowned. The red light just now was a fire spell, which meant that a cultivator had got there first and smashed his puppet.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go and take a look. If it was the yin-yang elixir he needed, he would try to get it, but if not, he would leave.

After walking for a while in the direction that the crow puppet was investigating, I saw a few fluorescent spots in the distance. They were very eye-catching in the dim space, especially the one in the middle, which looked like a torch burning there.

He didn't need to look closely, he knew from experience that it was a magical medicine. The largest one had reached the level he required.

He was a little excited. If he could collect the necessary spiritual herbs outside, there would be no need to take the risk of going to the destination. Now the situation in this space is unclear, so it is better not to wander around.

As he got a little closer, his expression changed slightly.

At this moment, there were already several figures beside the pond, each with surging magical powers, and there were even more cultivators a little further away. Everyone was staring at those spiritual herbs. Whoever took action first would probably be besieged.

After thinking about it, Chen Lin did not go to the edge of the pool, but came to a group of foundation-building cultivators farther away.

Then use all your eyesight to look into the pool of water.

At this time, it can finally be seen clearly that those glowing objects are lotus flowers. There are five in total, four of which are light red, and the largest one in the middle has lost its petals and has turned into a dark red lotus pod.

Each flower is shaped like a burning flame and exudes an intoxicating fragrance, especially the lotus seeds in the lotus pod. Each one releases mysterious fluctuations, and the one in the middle is even shining with golden light. You can tell at a glance that it is no ordinary treasure.

Red Flame Golden Lotus!

As a master of alchemy, Chen Lin remembered the name of this thing at just one glance.

This is a very rare elixir. It is a material that can be used to refine Nascent Soul-level elixirs in mature form. It is basically extinct in the outside world. I didn't expect to see it here.

However, only the golden lotus seeds in the lotus pod are useful to him, because only the lotus seeds in this elixir have the most yang attribute, and the other parts can only be regarded as fire attributes.

Taking his eyes off the lotus, Chen Lin looked at the group of Jindan cultivators near the pool.

He doesn't need to worry about the foundation-building cultivators beside him, as these people are his competitors.

In addition, these elixirs are so conspicuous that they have been preserved in the secret realm until now. I am afraid that there are guardian monsters in the pool.

"My fellow Taoists, something has happened here. If we continue like this and the monsters come over, none of us will be able to get the treasure. We should hurry up and study the distribution method, shall we?"

At this time, an old man standing on the edge of the pool spoke slowly, and the people he was talking to were only the few Jindan cultivators around him, and the foundation-building cultivators behind them were excluded.
