Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 402: Stalemate

Views:

Chen Lin came close to the pillar and observed it carefully.

After turning around twice, he didn't find anything and couldn't help but frown.

"Could this thing really die so easily?"

He muttered to himself as he chopped twice at the pillar with his Hanyue Knife. Seeing that the pillar still did not move, he could not help but secretly blame himself for being too reckless.

"Don't worry, my dear. The soul that can be sealed by this soul-sealing pillar is not so easy to eliminate. Let me try again."

Yun Xiu Niang walked forward, first said a word of comfort, then used her wooden hairpin to pierce the hole in the pillar again.

This time, it was not the smallest one that was pierced, but the slightly larger one.

Buzz!

After the wooden hairpin pierced into the hole, the pillar seemed unable to hold itself back. It trembled slightly and emitted a faint black light.

Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Although the changes are much weaker than before, as long as there is a reaction, it means that the thing sealed inside is still alive.

However, he seemed to be extremely weak, and the Soul-Destroying Finger was still effective against him.

Chen Lin thought for a moment, motioned for Yun Xiu Niang to take out the wooden hairpin, and then said to the pillar: "No matter what is inside, if you can understand what I say, give me a response, otherwise I will not be polite and will kill you completely!"

After saying that, he stretched out his finger, as if to continue attacking, but he did not make a direct move.

If you want to leave, you can only try to communicate with the other party.

Before, the other party was too angry and couldn't speak at all. Now that he has calmed down, he should not be so furious.

If communication is impossible, we can only try to destroy the pillars to see if there will be any changes, but that is the last resort and should not be used unless absolutely necessary.

"Buzz!"

As soon as Chen Lin finished speaking, the pillar shook slightly.

His eyes lit up.

If there is a response, it means that the other party can understand what he said and there is a way to communicate!

"Listen, I have no ill will towards you, and I don't want to know who you are. I was just dragged here by accident. As long as you send me out, we will keep to ourselves!"

After saying that, Chen Lin stared at the pillar and waited for a response.

But the pillar just trembled again and there was no other sign.

"It's probably because of the seal. The other party can't make any sound, and can't communicate with you mentally."

Yun Xiu Niang spoke from the side.

Then, without waiting for Chen Lin to speak, she continued, "How about I remove part of the seal on the Soul Sealing Pillar and give it a try?"

Chen Lin hesitated for a moment after hearing this.

This is a bit risky because you don't know if the contents of the column are installed.

The colorful vortex has existed for at least a thousand years. The thing in the pillar has been sealed for such a long time and has not died. It must be extraordinary and we must not act rashly.

Thinking of this, his eyes flashed, and he shook his head at Yun Xiu Niang and said, "The seal cannot be broken, otherwise it will be too dangerous. Since we can't communicate, let's destroy it first and see if there are any changes. I don't believe that this space can be entered but not exited!"

After saying that, he activated the Soul-Destroying Finger, and bits of silver light emerged, preparing to attack.

"You can't kill me!"

At this moment, the pillar emitted a faint black light, and a voice followed.

Chen Lin and Yun Xiu Niang's faces turned dark at the same time. This guy was really deceiving them and was just waiting for them to lift the seal on their own initiative. He was really cunning.

"Huh, really? How can you know if you don't try?"

Chen Lin snorted coldly and pointed his finger!

He used all his strength in this move, to vent his anger and also to warn the opponent not to think that he really didn't dare to kill him.

The energy containing silver light fell on the pillar, causing the black light on the pillar to quickly extinguish.

After a long time, the pillar trembled slightly and began to emit light again.

"I told you, you can't kill me."

The voice of the Hashirauchi spirit became fainter than before, but still calm.

Before Chen Lin could speak, the voice sounded again, "Although your soul power has undergone a qualitative change, it has not yet been completed, and it cannot destroy the origin of my soul."

The other party immediately pointed out the condition of his soul, and Chen Lin couldn't help but believe it a little.

And judging from his tone, the other person's soul should have undergone a qualitative transformation.

According to Niu Niu, when a soul advances, it becomes a higher life form and basically will not exist in a lower interface. So the other party is most likely a cultivator who came down from the upper realm during the war between gods and demons.

He was able to descend from the upper realm, and his cultivation level when he was alive was at least in the Spirit Transformation Stage. When dealing with such a person, one must be extremely vigilant.

"Even if I can't destroy you, I can still make you weak. And if I can't do it now, I won't be able to do it in the future until I show you."

Chen Lin continued his verbal threats.

"hehe."

The soul in the pillar laughed and said, "What's the point of you killing me? There is no hatred between you and me. It was Qiu Daoli who imprisoned me, not you."

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

The purpose of what the other person says is unclear, and if you ask rashly you will fall into his guidance. It is better to remain calm and see what the other person says next.

After waiting for a while and seeing that Chen Lin did not respond, the voice of the soul in the pillar sounded again.

"Yes, you are able to keep your composure and not act rashly. No wonder your soul can begin to advance even though your cultivation is so low. There is no trace of Qiu Daoli on you. Could it be that he has already fallen?"

Chen Lin still didn't say anything, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

From what the other party said, this Qiu Daoli should be the owner of the Lingbao Rainbow Fan, and the other party is here because he was imprisoned by Qiu Daoli.

Could it be that this is the interior space of the Rainbow Fan

This rainbow vortex is actually not solidified by spiritual magic, but the body of the rainbow fan

"Who are you?"

Chen Lin did not remain silent, but did not answer the other party either. Instead, he asked back.

The soul in the pillar was silent for a while, and finally a little strange appeared in his tone, saying: "If you don't know me, then you are not Qiu Daoli's man. It seems that he has really fallen."

Having said this, he suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, good, good, Qiu Daoli, you finally died in front of me. This is really exciting, hahaha..."

Chen Lin didn't say anything, waiting quietly for the other party to release his emotions.

After a long while, the other party calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Boy, I don't care how you got in here, but with your cultivation level, you can't use this treasure at all. Even if you get it, it will only cause trouble. How about we make a deal?"

Chen Lin's expression changed.

It seemed that the other party was unable to see beyond this space and knew nothing about the outside world. Moreover, the people who had been pulled in by the rainbow vortex before seemed unable to enter here either.

"What deal?"

You can't believe everything the other person says, but if you want to leave, you can only listen to what the other person says.

There is no need to guess what the other party needs him to do. Naturally, it is to release the seal of the Soul Sealing Pillar. It is estimated that as long as a part of it is released, the other party will be able to come out.

But the other party was sealed inside and it was impossible to take out the real objects. The only thing that could be traded was the inheritance of knowledge. He was quite interested and wanted to see what the other party could take out.

Sure enough, the other party immediately said: "Anyway, even if you get a treasure like the Rainbow Fan, you can't use it for the time being. Why don't you let me go first and find another weapon spirit later. In return, I can teach you a secret technique that will allow you to quickly complete the process of soul transformation and advance your soul!"

There was a look of doubt in Chen Lin's eyes.

Spirit of the weapon

What the other party meant was actually the spirit of the Lingbao Rainbow Fan, but how could the spirit be imprisoned? Moreover, the spirit and the Lingbao body complement each other and are inseparable, so how could they leave

Chen Lin was confused, but he didn't ask any questions. Instead, he nodded and said, "Okay, I agree!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Yun Xiu Niang, who was standing next to them, suddenly became anxious and was about to speak out to stop him.

But then Chen Lin said, "Teach me the secret technique first. As long as I succeed in practicing it, I will let you out immediately!"

Yun Xiu Niang swallowed back the words that she wanted to say to stop him.

But the soul in the pillar snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I'm a fool? I'll give you the secret technique first. Will you still unseal it for me?"

Chen Lin also sneered.

"If I open the seal first, how can I guarantee that you won't turn against me?"

The soul in the pillar fell silent again.

After a while, he compromised and said, "I will tell you half of the secret technique first, and I will give you the rest after you let me go. How about that?"

Chen Lin remained unmoved.

He did not dwell on the transaction and said, "Neither you nor I trust each other, so there is no need to talk about the transaction. Tell me how to leave this place now, and I will leave immediately. I don't have the ability to take this treasure away, so you can wait for the next monk to come in to trade!"

"no!"

The soul in the pillar categorically rejected it.

He said in hatred, "Qiu Daoli has imprisoned me for thousands of years. I finally waited until now. I will not wait any longer. If you do not agree to trade with me, then stay here with me!"

He sneered and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you that this soul-sealing pillar is the key to open the passage here. If you want to leave, you have to destroy it. So if I can't leave, you can't leave either!"

The communication came to a stalemate and Chen Lin had no good solution for a while.

After giving Yun Xiu Niang a wink, the two of them walked away.

He walked all the way to the edge of the space before he sent a voice message to Yun Xiu Niang: "Do you think this is the inner space of the rainbow fan? And that guy claims to be a spirit of the weapon, do you think it's true or not?"

Yun Xiu Niang pondered for a moment and also transmitted her voice: "It's hard to say whether it is the inner space of the Rainbow Fan, but if it is true, then Qiu Daoli must be a cultivator from the upper realm who descended during the war between gods and demons and died here. Otherwise, he would not have abandoned such a treasure."

"As for whether the other party is a weapon spirit." Yun Xiu Niang continued: "This is possible, but it is not a normal weapon spirit."

"Why?"

Chen Lin asked doubtfully.

Yun Xiu Niang explained: "If the Rainbow Fan is really as powerful as the legend says, it must have extremely strict usage restrictions, especially since it has seven abilities. The energy required is probably beyond the user's ability to sustain."

"You mean, the other party's existence is to provide energy for the spiritual treasure?"

Chen Lin was surprised and continued, "If that's the case, then there should be seven similar beings!"
