Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 308: Be honest

Views:

The monster's huge claws grabbed down on his head, and the sense of danger was even stronger than before in the cave. It also brought with it an invisible sense of suppression, making Chen Lin feel as if he was trapped in a quagmire and had difficulty moving.

Locked!

Chen Lin was startled. The other party had set his sights on him and was determined to get rid of him as soon as possible.

Unable to dodge, he could only take it head-on. Chen Lin immediately took the initiative to control the Basalt Shield to meet the attack.

But he soon discovered that although the power of actively activating the Basalt Shield was indeed strong, the consumption of mana was also astonishing.

The shield was like a bottomless pit, madly absorbing the magic power in his body. It showed no signs of slowing down only after most of the magic power was absorbed.

Chen Lin hurriedly took the opportunity to cut off the supply of magic power, not daring to let the other party absorb it again.

If all his magic power was sucked away, he would become a lamb to be slaughtered, and he would be unable to escape even if the restraints were lifted.

The basalt shield had been stimulated to a certain degree at this moment. When the giant claw hit it, the shield trembled for a while, but it took it safely.

Immediately, Chen Lin's feeling of being imprisoned disappeared and he regained his freedom of movement.

However, he did not take the opportunity to escape. Instead, he looked fierce and controlled the spirit of the weapon to transform into a phantom of black tortoise, which swallowed the giant claw!

If he runs away now and the giant claw hits him again, he won't have the mana to activate the basalt shield again.

Only by repelling the opponent can you have a chance to catch your breath.

This giant claw did not seem to contain the energy that the weapon spirit needed, causing it to feel a little resistant. However, it still manifested the phantom of the Black Tortoise according to Chen Lin's wishes, and vented all its dissatisfaction on the giant claw, biting it!

"hiss!"

In the sky, the monster suddenly let out a mournful cry, and its momentum weakened.

Although the Silver Fairy didn't know why this happened, she, who was experienced in combat, seized the opportunity, gave a clear shout, and silver light shone from her body, and her momentum suddenly increased.

The silver spear in his hand burst out with such powerful force that tiny cracks appeared in the space around the spear, and then he struck the monster's head directly with an indomitable will!

“Hiss!”

The monster quickly retracted its two huge front paws to resist.

However, there was a gap in one of the claws, creating a loophole in the defense, and the aftermath of the silver spear's attack broke through and hit the head.

Although it was not fatal, the monster's power was weakened again. It could no longer tear the space cracks, and it retreated back into the crack with a roar and unwillingness.

The huge space crack closed little by little and disappeared.

When the monks below saw this scene, they all breathed a sigh of relief, showing expressions of relief for surviving the calamity. At the same time, their eyes turned fanatical as they looked at the Silver Fairy.

No one noticed the gap in the monster's claws, and everyone thought that the Silver Fairy had repelled such a terrifying monster by herself, equating the Silver Fairy's combat power with that of a late Nascent Soul cultivator.

With their own city lord being so powerful, their safety in the city naturally increased greatly. The cultivators who had just thought about leaving the Silver Immortal City now calmed down.

The Silver Fairy held a silver spear in her hand, looked at the closed space crack for a while, and then slowly fell down.

"The city is under martial law. All monks are to return to their respective residences and are not allowed to go out. All city defense formations are activated. No one is allowed to enter or leave except those with identity tokens!"

After giving the order, she glanced in the direction of Chen Lin and said, "Come and find me!" Then she flew into the City Lord's Mansion.

Chen Lin was also extremely weak at this moment. He had already retracted the Black Tortoise Shield and was taking pills to restore his magic power.

When he heard the message from the Silver Fairy, his expression changed. He immediately stopped practicing, stood up and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

Just now, he took the initiative to activate the Black Tortoise Shield, which made quite a noise, and also let the Black Tortoise phantom bite the monster's claw. Others might not feel it, but the Silver Fairy must be aware of it. She didn't know whether the other party could guess that he was using a magic treasure, and after guessing it, would they become greedy and try to snatch it away.

If the other party asks him, will he admit it voluntarily or lie to deceive others

Chen Lin was feeling nervous until he entered the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion.

Although he had great faith in the character of the Silver Fairy, the temptation of the spiritual treasure was not something that ordinary people could resist. He felt that even he himself might not be able to keep this bottom line.

The Silver Fairy was sitting in the lobby, but her face was pale and she looked very weak. She no longer had the domineering aura that she had outside.

It seems that fighting monsters is not as easy as it appears.

"Master, are you okay?"

Chen Lin put aside the random thoughts in his mind and asked with concern.

"Nothing, just over-consumption."

Fairy Baiyin shook her head, indicating that there was no problem, then stood up and said, "Follow me."

After saying that, he walked inside.

Chen Lin was a little confused when he saw this, but he still followed quickly.

The two of them came to the Silver Fairy's bedroom. After the Silver Fairy closed the door, she stared at Chen Lin and said, "You were the one who caused the injury on the monster's claw just now. You were able to resist such a powerful attack and even injured the main body of the claw along the phantom. It takes extraordinary means to do so. How did you do it?"

Chen Lin took a breath, touched his storage bag, and took out the Basalt Shield.

"Master, I just happened to refine a treasure some time ago. It has extremely strong defensive power, so I was able to resist the monster's attack."

In this situation, there is no other way but to be honest.

The Silver Fairy took the shield in her hand, looked at Chen Lin with a strange look on her face, and then began to check it.

Then she showed a look of shock and exclaimed, "It's actually a spiritual treasure!"

Just now she was just suspicious, but she didn't think that Chen Lin, an early Jindan cultivator, would have such a treasure. Unexpectedly, she was thinking too narrowly.

There was a struggle in the depths of the Silver Fairy's eyes, but it became clear in an instant.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and looked at Chen Lin and said, "What did you just say? Did you refine this magic treasure yourself?"

Chen Lin hurriedly explained: "Master, it is true, and I also used the blood refining technique, so I can control it as a cultivator in the early stage of the golden elixir."

Fairy Bai Yin smiled as she heard this, and turned her shield twice, saying, "Are you so anxious to tell me about the Blood Refining Technique? Are you afraid that I, your master, will take the treasure for myself? However, although the power of the treasure refined by the Blood Refining Technique will decrease after the change of ownership, as long as it does not fall to the level of a spiritual treasure, it can still be restored to its original state with the self-repair ability of the spiritual treasure. Your reason is not enough to dispel my greed!"

Hearing the other party say this, Chen Lin actually felt relieved.

After so many years of getting along, he has a certain understanding of his master's character. Since he took the initiative to bring up the topic, it means that he has no intention of snatching it away.

After expressing a little admiration for the other party's character in his heart, he touched his storage bag again and took out two huge bamboo slips that recorded the method of refining the Black Tortoise Shield.

Then he said with a smile: "If Master needs it, how can I not give it up? I will naturally offer it with both hands. However, treasures that have been refined by the blood refining technique will have flaws after all. As a master, it is better for you to refine another one yourself. Here is the method to refine this spiritual treasure. Please accept it, Master."

Offering the refining method is the only way Chen Lin can think of to discourage the other party from snatching it. Of course, it ultimately depends on the other party's character.

The materials used to refine spiritual treasures are extremely rare. It is not certain whether you can find them, so it is not as easy as grabbing ready-made ones.

The Silver Fairy raised her eyebrows slightly and took the bamboo slips.

Although she was surprised when she read the first volume, she did not show it too much. However, when she saw the contents of the second volume recording the Ten Thousand Souls Creature Technique, she stood up in shock.

"Life Arts!"

The tone of the Silver Fairy's voice was a little distorted, which showed how shocked she was inside.

Chen Lin did not expect the other party's reaction to be so big, and he couldn't help but feel confused. Since it was a refining inheritance, he naturally had to have the art of creating life, otherwise how could he refine the spiritual treasure.

Of course, he would not speak at this time, so as not to change the other party's mentality and make him think about his treasure again.

As for the refining method, he had already memorized it thoroughly, so there would be no loss in giving it to the other party.

It took a long time for the Silver Fairy to calm down.

She said with a serious expression: "Where did this thing come from? Does anyone else know?"

Seeing the other party so serious, Chen Lin immediately said in a serious tone: "Master, I got this item when I killed an enemy in the late Jindan stage in a secret realm. No one has seen it. I have never shown it to anyone since I got it. Moreover, when I collected souls to refine the Xuanwu Shield, I collected them separately, so no one would find out."

In fact, this statement is not entirely accurate. To be honest, there is one person who knows about this matter, and that is Yun Xiu Niang who has been hiding in the wooden hairpin. However, the other person cannot be counted as a human, and she will always be by his side, so it is impossible for her to leak the secret, so she was not counted in.

The Silver Fairy was visibly relieved.

After a moment of silence, she said, "You have to remember that the inheritance of the Creation Technique is extremely precious. It is so precious that once it appears, it will inevitably attract all the powerful people to snatch it. Even those alien spirits from outside the domain will ignore the interface suppression and make a move. So you must never mention that you have this thing to anyone."

Chen Lin's face turned grim and he responded quickly.

The method of making the spiritual treasure must be precious, but he did not expect it to be so precious.

Seeing this, Fairy Baiyin explained, "You know, in general, the inheritance of spiritual treasures uses the magic of spiritual power, not the magic of life!"

Chen Lin looked puzzled, "Is there any difference between the two?"

“What a huge difference!”

Fairy Bai Yin slowly sat down and said, "I don't know the specific situation, but the spirit-enhancing technique is tied to the method of refining spiritual treasures. In other words, each spiritual treasure refining heritage has its own unique spirit-enhancing method, which is not universal. Moreover, the process is very complicated and tedious, and the growth of the spirit-enhancing technique also has an upper limit."

"But the Art of Reincarnation is different. The Art of Reincarnation can be used to refine any spiritual treasure. As long as the main body is refined, this art can be used to create a spirit."

At this point, she glanced at Chen Lin again and said, "You should know that many of the spiritual treasure refining methods passed down by ancient cultivators have become waste due to the lack of materials needed to energize the spirits. With this life-enhancing technique, we can turn waste into treasure. So once this technique is leaked, you and I will face a catastrophe!"
