Chen Lin's eyes flashed and his interest grew.
Such a treasure must be extraordinary to be able to allow an ordinary cultivator to rise and build a large tribe.
The old man swallowed his saliva and continued, "There is a colorful ball of light in that secret place. It is very wonderful. Even with the strength of my grandfather, a middle-level immortal, he cannot get close to it. However, as long as you are exposed to the light from a distance, your strength will be improved."
"Oh, just by being exposed to that light, one can improve his cultivation? Can it continue to improve after reaching the level of your grandfather?"
Chen Lin finally took it seriously.
The middle-level immortal mentioned by the other party is a Jindan cultivator.
If the light from that treasure alone can improve the cultivation of a Jindan cultivator, then its main body should at least be useful to a Yuanying cultivator. Its value is self-evident.
"Yes, it is still useful to my grandfather. The most amazing thing is that the ball of light will release different colors of light according to different people. Each color improves different things. Some lights improve cultivation, some improve mental strength, and some improve soul strength and physical strength."
The old man had a strange look on his face and told the general situation.
The more Chen Lin listened, the more surprised he was. There was actually such a magical treasure in the world. It really broadened his horizons.
He immediately asked, "What colors does the light ball have, and what powers do they correspond to?"
If it is really as magical as the other party says, I would really like to go and see it if I have the chance.
This has gone beyond the scope of ordinary treasures.
The old man replied, "According to my family's word of mouth, the color of the light ball is the same as that of a rainbow, divided into seven colors: red, yellow, blue, green, cyan, orange, and purple. Red increases cultivation, yellow increases mental strength, blue increases soul power, and green increases physical strength."
After a pause, he continued, "Since my ancestors discovered the secret place, they have only activated five colors of the seven-colored light ball. Among them, the cyan color was only activated by a child of my father's generation, but he himself had no idea what had happened. Later, he died in a battle, and there is no information about this color. As for the other two colors, orange and purple, no one has ever activated them."
Chen Lin was amazed.
The function of this thing is really mysterious.
If we follow common sense, there should be a color that increases lifespan, but the other two are really hard to guess.
Whether it is true or false, it still needs to be confirmed.
Then Chen Lin used the secret technique of the soul and asked the old man again.
After several comparisons, I confirmed that what the other party said was true.
"Okay, I'll take this map!"
When a treasure is delivered to your door, you cannot refuse it.
The old man was overjoyed when he heard this. Although this map was their family's inheritance, the place had been occupied by their enemies, so there was no way he could go back in this lifetime.
Moreover, among his descendants, only the grandson in front of him has decent qualifications. However, with the resources of their small tribe, it is impossible for him to become an immortal. In this dangerous environment, without an immortal to take charge, their small tribe may be destroyed at any time.
Take this time for example, if Chen Lin hadn’t appeared, they would all have died in the mouth of that two-headed roaring monster.
No matter how good a treasure is, it has to be usable. The immediate benefits are the most important.
Chen Lin put the map and token away together.
The token is the key to open that secret place, which means that the other party has completely given up the right to use that place.
"I'll give you two choices."
Chen Lin suddenly spoke.
"First, you must have known about the Foundation Building Pill after practicing for so many years. I can give you three Foundation Building Pills. You can use them as you wish."
"Secondly, I will accept your grandson as my disciple, but he can only be a nominal disciple. You should have guessed that I am not a cultivator from this continent and will leave sooner or later. I cannot accept you as my personal disciple, and I have no intention of accepting a personal disciple."
Seeing the old man struggling, Chen Lin smiled calmly and said, "Don't worry about answering. I'll give you three days to think it over and then tell me."
After saying that, he asked the two to leave the room.
However, what Chen Lin did not expect was that the two of them returned shortly after they left.
"Disciple Teng Jiuliang pays respect to Master!"
After the boy entered the room, he knelt on the ground and began to kowtow.
A hint of surprise appeared on Chen Lin's face.
According to his thinking, the other party would definitely choose three Foundation Establishment Pills.
If it were him, he would make the same choice.
Teng Jiuliang was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and his cultivation was only at the third level of Qi training. Although it was already good for his age to have such a level of cultivation, especially in the harsh environment of the Fallen Star Continent, it was still a long time before he could reach the foundation-building stage.
Moreover, he had already stated before that he might leave Xingyue Continent at any time, but the other party still wanted to become his disciple, which was beyond his expectations.
However, since he had already promised the other party, it would be difficult to go back on his word. After all, he was just a registered disciple, so he might as well accept him.
"Okay, since you have chosen to become my disciple, it means that I have a connection with this boy. My name is Chen Lin, and I am from the Starry Continent. However, you should just remember my name and don't spread it to others. I also have some enemies. Although this place is far away from the Starry Continent, they may come here. There is no need to cause trouble."
The white-browed old man's face turned stern and he quickly agreed.
Chen Lin thought for a moment, took out a marrow cleansing pill, handed it to Teng Jiuliang and said, "This is a marrow cleansing pill, it can be used to make the marrow clear. You go and refine it first. While I'm still here, I'll teach you some skills."
"Thank you, Master!"
Teng Jiuliang took the pill and left happily. Chen Lin then turned his gaze to the white-browed old man.
"You want your grandson to be my disciple, but do you want him to leave this continent with me?"
Apart from this reason, he couldn't think of why the other party would make such a choice.
The old man with white eyebrows had a flash of surprise in his eyes, and he knelt down hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty is very wise. I do have such an idea, but it is entirely up to Your Majesty to decide. I am not deliberately plotting against Your Majesty."
"No problem."
Chen Lin lifted the man up out of thin air and said, "If your grandson can satisfy me, it's not impossible to take him away. But you may not know that the current Star Continent is not as good as your place. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's the end of the world. The cultivators are also in danger of losing their lives at any time. You have to think carefully."
"ah!"
The white-browed old man stood there in a daze, looking at a loss.
He gave up the three foundation-building pills just to give his grandson a good future, so that he could come back as a strong man to avenge his family. He didn't expect the situation to be like this.
Chen Lin shook his head and said, "But becoming a disciple is no joke. Since you have chosen this, you cannot change it. You should leave first. Don't come here without my summons."
Waving his hand to send the confused old man away, Chen Lin took out a few leaves of the bone-eroding tree and threw them directly into his mouth to chew.
This was brought to him by the white-browed old man. It is said to be over a hundred years old. He has already had people test it and found nothing abnormal. Moreover, almost everyone here can use it.
Soon, a strange energy appeared in his body, causing waves of bone-gnawing pain all over his body.
However, such pain had no effect on Chen Lin. While feeling the changes in his body, he took out the map scroll and looked at it carefully.
The ball of light was so magical that he must go and see it.
According to the white-browed old man, his grandfather, who was the most powerful leader of the Green Wolf Tribe, was only at the middle stage of the Golden Core. That enemy had to rely on a traitor to launch a sneak attack from inside and outside to kill him. Presumably, that enemy's strength was not that strong.
With his current combat capability, it shouldn't be too dangerous to go there.
But there is no need to rush. It is very far away from here and we don’t know if there are any dangerous places along the way. It’s not too late to talk about it later.
Soon, the leaves' energy was exhausted and the pain disappeared.
However, Chen Lin did not feel any changes in his body, so he threw a few more pieces into his mouth and continued to refine them.
After half a day of refining hundreds of leaves, he only felt some very slight changes, which were almost non-existent.
He was not interested.
If he wanted to continue to increase his current level of physical training, he would probably need leaves that were a thousand years old, or the fruit of the bone-eroding tree.
Things of this vintage can only be found in Huoyan Mountain, so I must go and see it if I have time.
The body refining technique has been stagnant for countless years and is completely unable to keep up with his magical power cultivation, making it somewhat useless.
The second day.
After Teng Jiuliang finished refining the marrow cleansing pill, Chen Lin began to teach him the skills.
The other party has three spiritual roots of gold, wood and fire, but the fire spiritual root is particularly prominent, which is why he can reach the third level of Qi training at the age of fourteen.
The other party was practicing a family technique, which was of a fairly high level, so Chen Lin did not ask him to change his technique for the time being. The techniques in the Qi training period were not much different, and the gap could only be widened after the foundation was established.
If the other party is not afraid of the bombardment of heavenly calamity at that time, he can pass on the Three Yang Burning Wood Technique to the other party.
With the other party's qualifications, if he practices normally, he can only have the hope of forming a pill by practicing this kind of technique that increases the chance of forming a pill.
In a blink of an eye, another month passed.
Because of the use of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Teng Jiuliang's cultivation level broke through to the middle stage of Qi training. Chen Lin also taught him some spells and talisman-making skills.
After communicating with the old man with white eyebrows and other veteran cultivators, he also gained some understanding of the situation here.
So he decided to go to Mogan City without further delay.
Time is very tight, and he doesn't know what the situation is in the southern immortal cultivation world, so he has to go back as soon as possible to take a look.
Others may not care, but Luo Qinglan and Zhao Mengru will look for it.
However, Luo Qinglan is fine, but there is probably little hope that Zhao Mengru is still alive.
Not to mention that there has been no news from the other party. Even if we find him, unless he has a breakthrough to the Golden Core stage, his lifespan should have run out.
"well!"
After leaving the white-browed old man's tribe, Chen Lin looked back and couldn't help but sigh.
The path of cultivation is a process of constantly parting with relatives and friends. The higher your cultivation level, the more such things you will face.
Take this registered disciple for example. It is hard to say whether I will be able to see him again in the future.
