Inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
This time it is not the real body that enters, but a projection of consciousness, so one's own safety must be protected.
Liu Ruolan was arranged to be in the training room of the City Lord's Mansion because she was working for Master Wan Meng and had obtained the City Lord's warrant, so she met this condition.
Chen Lin was also very satisfied with this arrangement.
The base camp of cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage is not safer than here in the entire world of immortal cultivation, unless True Lord Wan Meng attacks him, but this is obviously impossible. If the other party wants to attack him, he can do so at any time and anywhere. There is no need to make it so complicated.
After choosing the training room, Liu Ruolan took the city lord's order and took the demon items that led to the Demon-Suppressing Temple scene.
It's a wooden fish.
It's not a fish carved out of wood, it's something a monk knocks on.
There is not only a wooden fish, but also a hammer, forming a set.
The two items were placed separately in two boxes engraved with mysterious array patterns. When opened, they immediately exuded a strong atmosphere of the demonic world.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, are you ready? As long as you strike the wooden fish with the hammer, it will emit a unique aura from the demonic world. Once we come into contact with this aura, we will be pulled into the scene of the Demon Suppression Temple! You and I must strike the hammer at the same time and place to enter that scene at the same time. If we are separated or the times are not synchronized, there will be differences."
The other party had said this several times, and Chen Lin was mentally prepared. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's get started!"
After getting Chen Lin's approval, the two of them came to the selected training room, and then closed the room to prevent being disturbed and to prevent the aura of the demon world from affecting other people.
Then the wooden fish was struck.
As soon as the wooden fish sounded, a pure breath of the demonic world burst out from it, and then Chen Lin felt a little sleepy.
He could have resisted it if he had to, but since he was going in on his own initiative, he relaxed his mind, allowed sleepiness to invade him, and fell asleep.
"Evil beast, show your true form now!"
Chen Lin felt a flash before his eyes and found himself in a temple. In front of him, an old monk with a very long nose was roaring at a chicken.
Looking more closely, they discovered that the old monk had hairy hands and feet under his robe, as if they were not human bodies, and the chicken the other party was scolding was not a real chicken, but a wooden chicken.
Although he was mentally prepared, Chen Lin was still shocked by the scene before him.
"Okay, you have an accomplice, the monster is still alive!"
When the old monk discovered Chen Lin's presence, his long nose suddenly turned into a sharp sword and stabbed towards him.
Just as Chen Lin was about to dodge, he suddenly remembered the strategy Liu Ruolan had given him. He immediately put his hands together and said loudly, "Buddha is merciful and saves all living beings. Master is obsessed!"
The old monk stopped abruptly.
"It's a sin, it's a sin..."
The old monk clasped his hands together, looking repentant, but without waiting for Chen Lin to say anything, he did a backflip and disappeared into the yard.
Chen Lin swallowed his saliva. What a weird behavior. It made people who saw it a little confused.
He now somewhat believed the statement that the demon world was a projection of a dream. If it was not a dream, such a strange scene would not have appeared.
But if this is really projected based on someone's dream, then this person must have been stimulated to have such a dream.
Shaking his head, Chen Lin put aside these meaningless thoughts and began to observe the surrounding environment.
After turning around, he didn't see Liu Ruolan and couldn't help but frown.
It seems that they are not projected together. It should be that the two people are not close enough. After all, there is a difference between men and women.
But it doesn’t matter, as long as the other party is still in this Demon-Suppressing Temple. The scene here is not too big and it is not possible to get lost.
Chen Lin did not start exploring immediately, but stood there checking the items, just waiting for a while to see if Chen Ruolan would come to find him.
The first thing he took out was the Xianji Stone. After seeing that there was nothing unusual, he put it away. Then he took out the pass he had obtained before.
Apart from these two items, no other items were checked. After all, they were just projections and could not be manifested if they were not items from the demonic world.
Even if you come in in person, you cannot use items outside of the demon world, after all, the rules of the two worlds are different.
Chen Lin looked at the pass and wanted to try whether it could be used here, but after thinking about it, he did not take any action. For the time being, the most important thing was to find Liu Ruolan.
"Boy, what you just took out is a road pass, right? Can you give it to me?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded in front of Chen Lin, startling him.
There was no one in front of him, and according to the information Liu Ruolan had provided before, there were no creatures with normal thinking here. However, what the owner of the voice said just now was very normal, and he even recognized the pass!
"Here I am, outsider. Can you please give me your guide? I can grant you a request."
The sound rang out again, and this time Chen Lin figured out that the source was actually the wooden chicken that had just been scolded by the old monk!
The demon world is not a normal world, and the wooden chicken talking is nothing. However, there is no such wooden chicken in the information provided by Liu Ruolan, which makes him alert.
If his appearance changed some of the circumstances in the scene, that would be troublesome.
"How did you know I was an outsider, and what benefit can you give me?"
Chen Lin asked while being on guard.
He wanted to test whether this wooden chicken had normal intelligence. If it did, then according to Master Wan Meng, this creature was a native of the demon world, and the danger level would increase sharply!
"Outsider, this is my territory. I advise you to be sensible and lead the way to Master Chicken. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Mu Ji did not answer Chen Lin's question, but became angry instead.
Chen Lin's eyes flashed.
He found that from beginning to end, whether the long-nosed old monk was there or when he was talking to him, the other party just stood there motionless.
This gave him some ideas. Could it be that the other party was restricted by the rules and could not move, and needed a guide to break the restrictions
He first observed the surroundings, and after seeing that there was nothing else that could be used, he continued to test the situation: "Master Chicken, please tell me what benefits you can give me first, and then I can consider whether to lead the way to you."
That being said, he would not hand over the pass no matter what promises the other party made to him.
Not only does the pass play a huge role in the demon world, but any rash actions may cause changes to this place, and then all the information he had previously learned would be useless.
"Boy, let me tell you, I am a divine chicken that has lived for tens of thousands of years. How dare you disobey your Grandpa Chicken? I think you are tired of living!"
Mu Ji continued to talk to himself, his anger growing.
Chen Lin felt relieved at this time. Although this thing could speak, its thinking was still confused, and it could not leave its place, so it was not worth worrying about.
In that case, he no longer paid any attention to the other party, but walked around to the inner courtyard of the temple.
I haven't seen Liu Ruolan for such a long time. I wonder if she has encountered danger. Although she has some understanding of this place, she has only explored a small part and has not explored it completely.
Seeing Chen Lin leave, Mu Ji became even more angry and started cursing.
Chen Lin pretended not to hear and stepped into the inner courtyard.
But immediately, his figure returned to its original position.
He frowned and stepped in again.
It immediately returned to its original position.
Step in.
return.
After doing this action for more than ten times, Chen Lin finally stopped trying and stood outside the door in deep thought.
I can’t even enter this inner courtyard!
I don’t know if you will be teleported out again once you enter, or if there are countless identical scenes connected together, and you will be next to another once you jump across one
This was not included in the information Liu Ruolan provided.
I don’t know whether the other party didn’t explore it or the scene changed.
Chen Lin frowned.
If you can't even enter the inner courtyard, how can you expect to obtain the abbot's robes
According to Master Wan Meng, this place is an ordinary scene, which is much less dangerous than the "Guardian" scene where the little girl is, but it does give him the feeling that such a scene is more difficult.
There must be something wrong!
Chen Lin knew that it was impossible that he really couldn't get in, he probably just hadn't found the right method.
After trying twice more and still failing, he simply turned around and began looking for anything suspicious in the outer courtyard.
But it was not found. Even the wooden chicken stopped and stood there like an ordinary carving.
Truly dumbfounded.
Finally, he came to the door leading out of the outer courtyard.
The gate is very large, with red-painted copper rings, and looks very solemn, but it is closed now.
After hesitating for a moment, he tried to pull the bolt, but unexpectedly it opened immediately!
He gently pushed the door on one side, and it opened, revealing a gap big enough for someone to pass through.
He tried to walk out and he walked out successfully.
It seems that the pass is still effective here.
Chen Lin took out the pass, which was emitting faint fluctuations and the words were fluorescent, but unfortunately he didn't recognize any of them.
It was dark outside.
There was nothing there except a thick demonic aura. The ground was not made of soil and it was impossible to tell what material it was. Not to mention flowers, plants, and trees. They did not exist at all.
After walking for a distance, Chen Lin turned around and looked.
There was only a temple in front of me, standing out in the dim environment, lonely and very depressing.
Sure enough, the scenes in the demon world are fragmented and do not connect with each other.
He didn't dare to go too far, and after walking around, he returned to the door.
There seemed to be some kind of barrier around the temple wall, making it impossible to climb over it. If one wanted to go in, one had to go through the main gate, so he had to continue studying the rules for entering the inner courtyard.
Demon-Suppressing Temple!
Above the gate, three large characters are engraved on a plaque, conveying a unique artistic conception.
After standing in front of the door and thinking for a while, and then looking at the big plaque, Chen Lin cheered up and walked back into the temple.
