The huge floating island hanging high in the dome suddenly shook, and then slowly rotated.
And it was getting faster and faster, and the light shield outside was getting brighter and brighter.
Then a terrifying pressure was emitted, causing all the cultivators below to panic and scatter in all directions. Chen Lin was no exception. He retreated to a distance with Luo Qinglan and watched the changes on the island closely.
Everyone thought that something shocking would happen since the island was in such a strange state, and they were ready to escape and defend. However, to everyone's surprise, the island spun for a while, and suddenly there was a roar, then it disappeared into the void!
The monks looked at each other in confusion.
"My lady, have you sensed the aura of the evil god? And have you noticed that this island seems to have shrunk as a whole and is not as big as the Tianyuan Continent where we lived in the past?"
Chen Lin looked at Luo Qinglan and asked with a frown.
Although the overall structure of this island is similar to that of the Tianyuan Continent, especially the several towering mountains in the middle, which, when viewed from a distance, completely match the shape of the mountains in the middle of the Duanmeng Mountains, it is definitely Tianyuan Island.
But the former Tianyuan Continent had an area as large as several countries, plus the Duanmeng Mountains. Although it was called an island by the people of the Starry Continent, it was actually not small.
Although the disappeared floating island was also huge, it was still much smaller than the Tianyuan Continent.
Luo Qinglan nodded and said, "It is indeed small, and the evil demonic aura it exudes is also very similar to the evil god worshipped by the Qishen Cult, so the claim that this island is the treasure of the ancient demon is likely to be true."
Chen Lin took a breath, his eyes filled with horror.
How powerful would a treasure as big as a small continent be
Could it be that the ancient demon who possesses such a treasure is really just at the Divine Transformation level? It is absolutely impossible!
If such an existence really revives, even if it is suppressed by the will of the interface, I am afraid no one in this world can stop it. In the past, there were cultivators from the upper realm who came down to help, but will there still be such help now
Both of them fell silent, full of worry about the future.
After waiting for a while, there were no new changes in the sky, so some cultivators stopped waiting and returned to the continent to report to their respective forces.
Two cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage in the distance hesitated for a moment, then flew towards them, but did not dare to get too close and stopped.
Chen Lin sensed it and took a look, thinking that the person looked familiar, and should be from Qingyang Sect.
So he said, "Madam, are you going back to Qingyang Sect? He Jiuxiao must be resentful of me for severely injuring him this time. Wanjian Sect is a powerful force. If you go back, you will be in great danger. Why don't you take this opportunity to follow me to the Northern Immortal Cultivation Realm? I can take care of you in Baiyin Immortal City."
Luo Qinglan shook his head.
Then she glanced at Chen Lin and said, "I won't disturb your wonderful life over there, lest you be in a dilemma. Besides, I promised my master that I must carry forward the Qingyang Sect, and I cannot abandon the sect."
Chen Lin was speechless and simply played ostrich and kept silent.
Luo Qinglan did not continue to dwell on the matter, but worriedly said: "Be careful, even though you spared He Jiuxiao's life, given the style of the Ten Thousand Swords Patriarch, he will not personally attack you. Otherwise, with his ability to fly a sword thousands of miles away to take someone's life, you will definitely not be able to leave Wuding Sea alive!"
Chen Lin's expression was stern. Although he had never seen the sword cultivator's methods, he was well-known for their strength. That was why when he was fighting with He Jiuxiao, he did not dare to give the other party a chance to attack.
Luo Qinglan continued: "Even if the Wanjian Patriarch does not take action, there are so many masters in the Wanjian Sect, and the other disciples will definitely seek revenge on you. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to deal with it alone."
At this point, she hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this, you follow me back to Star City to hide for a while, and then leave after things have settled down. I still have some foundations in Star City, and I can still protect you."
Chen Lin suddenly felt a warm feeling rising in his heart.
The other party knew clearly that if he went to Fanxing City, it would definitely bring disaster to the other party and even the Qingyang Sect, but he still spoke up, which shows his friendship.
But there was no way he could go.
He shook his head and smiled, "Who said I am alone? This time I came here with my fellow cultivators from the northern world. We are led by masters from Xuanguang Immortal City, and we are following the orders of the Council of Elders. Even if the Wanjian Sect is arrogant and domineering, they dare not attack our team openly."
After saying this, he looked back and found that Fang Zhenping and others had already gathered, and all their eyes were looking at him.
He hesitated for a moment and did not continue to invite Luo Qinglan to go to Silver Immortal City with him.
The other party does things more methodically than him. Since he wants to continue staying in Fanxing City, there must be a reason for it, and he must have the means to deal with Wanjianmen.
Although the two have made their relationship clear, they have only been together for a short time and need to give each other some time to adapt.
Thinking of this, Chen Lin took out a few ultra-long-distance communication talismans, handed them to the other party, and said with concern: "If anything happens, you must notify me immediately!"
He originally wanted to take out the Mandarin Duck Conch, but after thinking it over he decided not to take action.
Luo Qinglan heaved a sigh of relief when he learned that Chen Lin came with the team.
That's not a problem.
She took the communication talisman in her hand, stroked her hair, and said, "Whether the love is deep or not is not about whispering in each other's ears. You and I are both people who pursue the immortal way. We should not indulge in the love affair. Compared with living together day and night, I would rather encourage each other and climb the road to heaven hand in hand!"
After saying that, he flew away with his two men and turned into a stream of light!
Chen Lin stared blankly at the other person's disappearing back, with helplessness on his face. It was indeed a great sense of accomplishment to be liked by such a beautiful girl, but it was also very stressful.
The other party is now in the late Jindan stage. With his cultivation speed, he will soon reach the perfection of Jindan. The other party has the blood of the Divine Phoenix and the probability of condensing Nascent Soul is very high. If he cannot catch up with him, his cultivation will be far behind by then.
If the other party achieves Nascent Soul stage, even if his heart has not changed and he is still willing to become his Taoist partner, it is hard to say whether he can accept it.
"well!"
After a long time, Chen Lin sighed and withdrew his gaze.
"Why, Brother Chen Daoist, you are still sighing when you have such a beautiful woman in your arms? Are you feeling a lot of pressure?"
Fang Zhenping's voice sounded from behind, with a hint of teasing, and was much more intimate than before.
This was a recognition of Chen Lin's strength, and Chen Lin's serious injury to He Jiuxiao also increased the prestige of their northern cultivation world.
Chen Lin glanced at the other party and said without disguising, "It is indeed as Daoist Fellow Fang said, the pressure is very great!"
Fang Zhenping laughed and said, "Then catch up with her. I have heard of the name of this Divine Phoenix Goddess. She has the rare blood of the Divine Phoenix and is favored by the Fairy of Flowers. She has wanted to take her as a disciple several times but was rejected by her. However, the Fairy of Flowers still admires her very much and has said that no Nascent Soul cultivator is allowed to suppress her, otherwise they will be her enemy. Anyone who meets such a woman will feel pressured!"
Then he looked Chen Lin up and down and said, "I am very curious about how Fellow Daoist Chen managed to get a woman like this. It really brings honor to our Northern Immortal Cultivation World! If this news gets out, those so-called chosen ones in the Southern Immortal Cultivation World will probably be furious, hahahaha..."
The other party laughed heartily, but Chen Lin's face darkened when he heard it.
I didn't expect Luo Qinglan to be so famous that even the cultivators in the northern cultivation world knew him. Now he is famous. It seems that he has to be more low-key in the future and quickly suppress this heat.
He doesn't like to be in the spotlight like this.
However, Luo Qinglan actually has a backer like the Fairy of Flowers, so he doesn't need to worry about his safety. No wonder the other party is so confident.
With his strength, as long as the Nascent Soul cultivator does not take action, there should not be many people who can pose a threat to him. And the other party had reminded him to show mercy to He Jiuxiao before, not because he was worried about the other party himself, but because he was truly considering him.
Although the Silver Fairy is also famous, she is only in the middle Nascent Soul stage after all. She has little deterrent effect on the Wan Jian Patriarch who is also in the middle Nascent Soul stage. If he really kills the other's son, neither the alien spirit nor the threat from the Silver Fairy will be able to stop the Wan Jian Patriarch from hunting him down.
A brainless and reckless man will not live long, and showing off one's power for a while is not what a wise man does. As the leader of a sect, Luo Qinglan has a more clear view on this aspect.
"Let's go. The floating island disappeared on its own. This saves us from having to continue exploring. We can now go back and report back!"
Fang Zhenping was also assigned here under duress. He had no interest in this floating island at all and seemed very happy about its disappearance.
Then he glanced at Chen Lin and reminded him, "Fellow Daoist Chen, although Master Wan Jian has many offspring, this He Jiuxiao was born after he was promoted to the Nascent Soul stage. You also know that the higher the level of our cultivators, the more difficult it is to have offspring, so Master Wan Jian dotes on this son very much. Fortunately, you are patient enough and did not kill him impulsively, otherwise we would not dare to team up with you to return."
Chen Lin's eyes flickered slightly, and he sighed, "On someone else's territory, what can I do if I don't hold back? Fellow Daoist Fang, rest assured, if the Wanjian Sect sends someone to seek revenge, I will know my limits and will not put everyone in danger."
Fang Zhenping nodded, showing satisfaction.
As the team leader, he had to take the safety of the entire team of monks into consideration. Even though he admired what Chen Lin did, he still had to give him some pointers.
After talking for a while, everyone headed straight for the teleportation array.
The fairy city of the four seas.
This is a relatively famous commercial city in the southern world of immortal cultivation. The ultra-long-distance teleportation array that connects to the Xuanguan Immortal City is located here.
The last time Chen Lin came here, this place was very prosperous, but now it has been hit by the catastrophe and has become a lot quieter.
There are three Nascent Soul cultivators in charge here, including one in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, who is a good friend of True Lord Xuan Guang, so after entering this city, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The pressure from the Wanjian Patriarch is still enormous.
"Okay, now that we are here we are safe. I will give you half a day. If you want to buy anything, hurry up and leave as soon as the time is up. We will not wait for you if you are late!"
It was not easy to come to the southern world of immortal cultivation. Although they were in a hurry to go back and report, Fang Zhenping still gave everyone some free time.
"Greetings, Master!"
In a secret room of a business, a middle-aged man bowed to Chen Lin.
If an outsider saw this scene, he would be very surprised. You have to know that the middle-aged man is a cultivator who has reached the late stage of foundation building and has a great reputation. He has always claimed to be the owner of this business, but unexpectedly he is just a servant.
"Um."
Chen Lin hummed, then said: "Nothing has happened in the store recently, right? I have something for you to do."
This middle-aged man is called Zhao Ziping. He is one of his hidden men. He has also signed a blood contract with him and has good character, so he is absolutely trustworthy.
Zhao Ziping bowed and said, "Everything is fine in the store. If you have anything to say, please let me know!"
Chen Lin nodded, took out a black pill bottle and handed it to the other party.
"The pill in here is called Soul-Replenishing Pill, which is very effective in repairing the damaged soul. You should find a way to deliver it to He Jiuxiao, the young master of Wanjian Sect, but you must not attract his attention, and you must not reveal your identity. You must do it secretly and let the other party think that you bought it normally. Do you understand?"
This pill was one he had just refined using the recipe for the Soul-Restoring Pill, but he had made some changes to it. However, the changes were so minor that even a master alchemist would not be able to detect them.
He Jiuxiao was hit by the Soul-Destroying Finger that he had unleashed with all his strength, and the origin of his soul had been damaged. He would certainly look for healing pills everywhere, but soul-related pills were very rare, and ordinary soul-nourishing pills were useless for the damage to the origin of the soul. Therefore, as long as he found his specially customized 'Soul-Replenishing Pill', he would definitely use it.
At that time, I will definitely give the other person a 'surprise'.
Chen Lin knew the truth that if you fail to kill the snake, you will suffer from it. However, the situation was such that he could not kill He Jiuxiao without caring about his grudges. He could only cut off one of his arms to relieve his murderous intent.
But for a Jindan cultivator, as long as the arm is still there, it can be reattached. Apart from the embarrassment, there will be no impact. Whether it is the spiritual invasion of the pseudo-spiritual treasure or the soul damage of the Soul-Destroying Finger, it can all be repaired. It is easy to do so given the other party's identity and background.
The other party is now in the late Jindan stage. After his injuries recover, it is hard to say when he will be able to break through to the Yuanying stage. If he succeeds in the promotion, his death will be imminent.
So you must never let the other party turn over!
After using this soul-replenishing pill, the opponent will never be able to successfully form a fetus, and will no longer be a threat to him.
After talking to Zhao Ziping in secret, Chen Lin changed his appearance and walked out of the store.
Then, he changed into a new appearance and came to a spiritual food pavilion.
We asked for a private room and ate while waiting.
After a while, an old man walked in.
Just as the other party was about to bow, Chen Lin interrupted him with a wave of his hand, gave him some instructions through voice transmission, and then took out a small bottle and gave it to the other party.
The bottle contained elixirs that could dissolve spiritual energy, and he had also tampered with it.
The old man is also one of his hidden pieces. Zhao Ziping's single line is not safe, and he must adopt multiple approaches to ensure that there are no mistakes.
After the old man left, Chen Lin slowly finished the food and wine on the table before getting up and leaving contentedly.
Before the reunion, he activated a few more communication talismans, and then walked into the teleportation hall of Sihai Fairy City with the team.
