Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 279: The Dream Lord

Views:

Chen Lin didn't expect that something that he thought was hopeless would be achieved in an instant.

Liu Ruolan sent him a message, saying that Master Wanmeng wanted to see him

This surprised him for a while, but since he had taken the initiative to ask for it and the other party had done it, no matter what the reason was for Master Wan Meng to see him, he could not refuse.

So he followed the other party's guidance and came to the City Lord's Mansion.

"I heard from Liu Ruolan that you want to enter the demon world in your true form?"

Master Wan Meng looked just like an ordinary person, and his age seemed to be only about thirty years old, without any fluctuation of his magical power.

However, Chen Lin did not dare to treat the other party as an ordinary person. Hearing this, he hurriedly said respectfully: "Reporting to the True Lord, I do want to find a way to enter the Demon Realm with my true body, but it is only for emergency use, and there is no other intention."

This must be explained, lest the other party think that he is special and then conduct a direct soul search on him, which would be tragic.

The other person's personality is known to be moody, and it's not surprising that he does anything.

However, Master Wan Meng did not dwell on this question, but changed the subject and said, "You told Liu Ruolan before that you had entered the demon world and made friends with a little scarecrow girl with wisdom. Tell me about this in detail."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed when he heard this.

Sure enough, the other party wanted to see him because of this. He had deliberately revealed this information to Liu Ruolan before in order to attract the attention of Master Wanmeng, because both the Silver Fairy and Master Huanling and other Nascent Soul cultivators were very interested in this little girl.

He replied without any hesitation: "Yes, I have indeed entered the demon world and met a little girl. The place is called Guardian Hut Village."

"Guardian?"

Master Wan Meng, who had been expressionless all this time, suddenly changed his expression, causing Chen Lin and Liu Ruolan who came with him to look surprised. Something that could make a late Nascent Soul cultivator lose his composure like this must not be simple.

Chen Lin's heart began to beat fast. He originally thought that Guardian's Hut Village was just a normal name, but he didn't expect it to be so unusual. This might not be a good thing.

"Would you like to become my disciple?"

Just when Chen Lin was wondering what this guardian represented, Master Wan Meng suddenly spoke and said something that surprised him.

Liu Ruolan next to her was shocked, and even a little envious and jealous.

Because Master Wan Meng was talking about a disciple, not a registered disciple, that meant that he would accept Chen Lin as his personal disciple, which would be a quick step to success!

Chen Lin didn't think much about it. Even if he did, it would be useless. In the cultivation world, betraying one's master would be despised by everyone. Moreover, Fairy Bai Yin was very good to him. Even if Master Wan Meng was a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, he would not change his ways.

He immediately said, "Reporting to the senior, I already have a master. My master is the Silver Fairy, the city lord of the Silver Fairy City in the Northern Cultivation World. I'm sorry that I can't become a disciple of the True Lord anymore."

"oh?"

Master Wan Meng was surprised and said, "So you are the disciple of the girl from the Yun family. No wonder you have contact with the demon world. In this case, forget it."

Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief. It was too tiring to deal with such a big shot. He would never do such a thing again unless it was necessary.

Perhaps because of Fairy Baiyin, Master Wanmeng's tone softened a little, and he said, "According to my exploration, the creatures in the demon world should be composed of two parts."

Chen Lin's ears pricked up when he heard that. It seemed that his master's reputation was really useful. The other party was going to reveal some secret information to him.

Even Liu Ruolan was holding her breath and concentrating, but she didn't even know this information.

Master Wan Meng could naturally sense the changes in the two, but he didn't care. He just said to himself, "One type of creature is projected from things that exist in various planes, whether it's the environment or the creatures. But these creatures basically have no independent intelligence. Although they have absurd and strange abilities, they can't communicate."

"The other kind is a native creature of the demon world."

Master Wan Meng's tone became serious when he said this, and he continued, "There are very few creatures of this kind, but they all have independent intelligence, and all those with the title of Guardian are very powerful, so powerful that you can't even imagine!"

After that, he glanced at Chen Lin and said meaningfully: "Such an existence would never do meaningless things. The little girl you met is definitely not just a naughty child as you said. If you look at it this way, you are too naive."

Chen Lin was shocked when he heard this.

He himself felt that the little girl was a little too nice to him, and the doll's escape from the sarcophagus had nothing to do with him, so he couldn't be grateful to her, so he agreed with what she said.

"Thank you for the reminder, senior. I will pay attention to it."

Chen Lin bowed and thanked the other party, who considered this as a reminder to him.

"Hmm." Master Wan Meng hummed and changed the subject, then continued: "There is no benefit without reason in the world, and it is the same here. I have the treasure you want that can temporarily enter the demon world, but I can't give it to you for free. You need to do something for me."

Chen Lin's heart moved, and he said, "Please give me your instructions, senior!"

Master Wan Meng looked at Liu Ruolan again and said, "It's very simple. You just need to go to the Demon-Suppressing Temple that Liu Ruolan has been exploring and help me get the abbot's cassock. Then I will give you the treasure!"

The abbot’s robes

Chen Lin couldn't help but feel very confused.

He guessed that the other party might ask him to go to the demon world to do some work, and even guessed that it might be to go to the Demon-Suppressing Temple, but he didn't expect to go to get the cassock.

Why did the other party think that he could get the cassock if he went there? Was it because he practiced Buddhist techniques

Chen Lin was confused, but he didn't have the chance to ask.

"Okay, I have something else to do. You two can leave first. You two can discuss the information about the Demon Suppression Temple on your own. The item that can connect to the Demon Suppression Temple scene can be used at any time. I hope to get good news from you. Of course, if you feel it is dangerous, I will not force you. I will not embarrass you for the sake of your master."

Master Wan Meng waved his hand, and the two of them immediately took their leave.

"Brother Chen, I didn't expect you to be a cultivator from the Northern Immortal Cultivation World. What's the cultivation environment like there? Is it as chaotic as the legend says?"

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, the two walked side by side, and Liu Ruolan tried to find a topic to talk about.

Chen Lin smiled and said, "It's not chaotic, it's just not as prosperous as here. However, some resources are richer than here. After all, there are fewer monks and the land is vast and sparsely populated."

At this point, Chen Lin suddenly remembered something and asked, "Fellow Daoist Liu, it is said that there is another continent besides this one. I wonder if it is true or not. Have you ever been there?"

He had only heard about this matter after he came to the southern world of immortal cultivation. He had always been curious about it, but the information he had obtained was vague. As a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, Master Wan Meng must know the answer, so he just asked casually.

Liu Ruolan nodded and said, "I've heard from my master that there is indeed a continent called the Starfall Continent. According to legend, there was a large-scale meteorite landing there. The meteorites released alien energy, which was not conducive to cultivation, so there were basically no cultivators. On the contrary, because of the existence of alien energy, many mutant monsters were born, which became very dangerous."

Chen Lin was surprised when he heard this: "So that's how it is. I was wondering why I couldn't get any information about that place. It turns out that the cultivation environment is too bad and no one wants to go there."

Liu Ruolan smiled and said, "It's not that no one is willing to go there. There are still some rare treasures in that place, such as the Immortal Stone that can block the repulsion of the demon world's aura, which is produced there."

"It's just that to get there, you need to cross the entire Wuding Sea. Because the space is unstable, it's impossible to set up a teleportation array, so not everyone can go there. The cost is not proportional to the benefits, so it's naturally difficult to generate motivation."

Chen Lin nodded.

Monks are all egoists, and no one would be willing to take risks without obvious benefits.

However, the Immortal Stone actually came from the Starfall Continent. It was no wonder that Master Yunhai had traveled all over the continent, even to Tianyuan Island, but no one knew what the Immortal Stone was.

Chen Lin kept this information in mind. If he had the chance in the future, he would go and take a look. He would definitely have many dealings with the demon world, so the more items like the Immortal Stone he had, the better.

While talking, the two came to Genting Trading Company.

Liu Ruolan said, "I still need some days to prepare for the trip to the Demon Suppression Temple. Brother Chen, why don't you stay in my training room for a while so that we can exchange information. The situation there is very strange and there are many things to pay attention to. Otherwise, one wrong step could put your life in danger."

The other party did not ask Chen Lin whether he was going or not, and seemed to be certain that he would go.

Chen Lin did plan to go there.

Compared to the golden heavenly tribulation, he would rather take the risk of going to the demon world. Besides, the treasure that Master Wanmeng mentioned is not a one-time use and will be of great use in the future.

"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you, Brother Liu!"

After hesitating for a moment, he readily agreed.

In the next few days, whenever Liu Ruolan had time, she came to explain the situation of the Demon-Suppressing Temple to Chen Lin, and told him some of the rules that she had explored before without reservation, allowing Chen Lin to understand it while also secretly marveling at it.

This Demon-Suppressing Temple is much more complicated than the little girl's scarecrow house. The most important thing is that the little girl can communicate, but the creatures there are very chaotic, so there is no possibility of communication.

If the little girl can't communicate, then anyone who goes there will be killed.

Chen Lin memorized every word the other party said, and then secretly figured out how to respond.

Finally, on this day, Liu Ruolan was ready, and the two of them went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
