The devil world.
As soon as Chen Lin came in, the starlight behind him followed, which surprised him!
He thought he would be fine if he hid in the demon world, but he didn't expect that the starlight could actually chase him to the demon world.
But he soon discovered that although the starlight came across the boundary, its power was greatly weakened by the rules of the demon world. Although it created several cracks in the basalt shield, it did not cause any substantial damage to him.
Seeing this scene, his heart finally relaxed.
At this time, the space ripples caused by the boundary-breaking talisman had closed. Even if the seven-star connected stars dropped their starlight again, it would be impossible to locate him.
As his tense nerves relaxed, a sharp pain came immediately, causing Chen Lin to fall to the ground.
He hurriedly took out the Immortal Stone to isolate the evil spirit, then swallowed the healing pill and began to heal his wounds.
"Haha, life is full of ups and downs. Here we go again!"
Just after finishing refining a pill, Chen Lin heard a familiar voice, and then a tall man with copper coins hanging all over his body appeared in front of him.
A traveling merchant!
His face changed. He didn't expect to see the other person here again.
The space node here is one of the two nodes that Master Wan Meng told him about. It was here when he was going through the golden elixir tribulation.
That time, I met him after entering the Demon Realm, and his luck that increased after he was promoted to the Golden Elixir stage was taken away.
I didn't expect to meet him again this time.
Meeting the same person in the same place, is it a coincidence or something else
"So it's you, the traveling merchant. I didn't expect to meet you in this place by chance."
Chen Lin stood up and took the Xuanwu Shield in his hand.
Although the Black Tortoise Shield was badly damaged, only spiritual treasures could exert their power in the demon world. Even the Frost Moon Sword was of little use because its spirit was dormant.
After thinking about it, he still felt unsafe, so he pretended to tidy up his clothes and revealed Niu Niu's amulet.
The peddler looked at Chen Lin, especially at the straw amulet on his chest, and then the corner of his mouth twitched and said, "No need to show it. I know you have a relationship with the guardian. Besides, we peddler merchants believe in making money through harmony. We will not attack customers without reason."
Chen Lin didn't believe what the other party said, but looking at the other party's attitude, he really had no intention of taking action, so he felt relieved.
Moreover, his luck had fallen several times, and now he had reached the Nascent Soul stage. The strength of his luck had reduced his innate abilities to one out of three. The opponent might not be able to discover that he had stolen back the luck ball that had been taken away from the opponent.
However, the other party's next words immediately shattered his fantasy.
"Last time, the guardian took your luck ball back. Didn't he let you use it? Why didn't your luck increase, but decreased instead?"
The traveling merchant was very confused, and then asked: "Are you doing business with other merchants?"
Chen Lin's eyes flashed when he heard this.
What the other party meant was that there were many traveling merchants like him in the demon world
Although he had some guesses, Chen Lin did not ask.
In the eyes of the other party, information is also a commodity for trading. If the transaction conditions are reached directly after asking, it will be difficult for him to handle it.
Thinking of this, he shook his head but said nothing.
The peddler did not ask any more questions. He looked Chen Lin up and down and suddenly said, "There is something wrong with your body!"
Chen Lin was stunned and immediately asked, "What's the problem?"
There must be a reason why Xingmang paid special attention to him, but he himself did not realize it. The other party had extraordinary abilities and perhaps he could see something.
The peddler smiled and said, "It's a big problem, but if you want to make a deal with me on this issue, I only need to intercept a part of your luck, and I can tell you the answer."
After saying that, he immediately added: "Don't let the guardian take it back."
When Chen Lin heard this addition, he felt that the other party was really afraid of Niuniu, and he didn't even say the word "steal" but said "take".
From this we can see that Niu Niu's true identity and strength must be extremely terrifying, but she just appears harmless in front of him.
This made him very helpless. If Niu Niu could be contacted, his problem might not be a problem.
Seeing that Chen Lin did not answer, the peddler's eyes flashed and he continued, "We peddler merchants have always been fair in our dealings. The information about your physical problem is worth this price. Moreover, in terms of vision, even the guardian cannot compare with us."
Chen Lin looked at the other person and still said nothing.
The other party was able to do business in the demon world, and he was indeed very insightful and knew everything he was thinking.
The implication of these words is to tell him that asking Niu Niu for help may not solve the problem, and he can only rely on her.
However, the reward the other party mentioned was to take a portion of his luck, but there was no fixed amount. If his ability was directly reduced to ten hits, then given the level of resources required for his current cultivation, his talent would be wasted.
After hesitating for a while, Chen Lin shook his head and said, "I can't give you the power of luck. Please change the conditions!"
The peddler smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem with changing the conditions. We peddler merchants only consider the value of the items we trade, and there is no limit on the type. But do you have any treasures that can compare with the power of your luck?"
After saying this, he looked at the Black Tortoise Shield and said, "If this shield had not been refined with blood, it might still have some value, but now it is not enough."
Chen Lin ignored the other party's criticism. Although the other party kept talking about fair trade and honesty, it was actually nonsense.
The other party might be restricted by some rules, but the restrictions are definitely not so strict, otherwise he would not have been given the one-armed Detour at a low price last time.
After thinking about it, he took out the Hanyue Sword.
"How about this knife?"
Although he finds the knife very handy, it would be worth it if he could use it to obtain information from the other party.
"Although this is only a broken spiritual treasure, it can be used, and it has not been refined by blood. Besides, all you need to do is provide a piece of information, not solve any problems for me. This reward is already big enough!"
Seeing that the other party looked indifferent, Chen Lin spoke.
"hehe."
The traveling merchant smiled faintly and said, "The value of an item depends on who you are trading with. This information is worthless if it is traded with other people, but it is priceless to you because it concerns your life and death!"
Chen Lin frowned.
The other party looked very confident, and it seemed that he had quite a problem. He couldn't help but check again secretly, but still found nothing.
Just when he was thinking about what else he had on him that the other party would like, the other party suddenly changed the subject and said, "How about this, since you are reluctant to give up your own luck, then we can exchange information. You tell me the reason for the loss of your luck, and I will tell you your problem!"
This turn of events was so big that Chen Lin was unable to react for a while.
After a moment, he agreed: "Okay, deal!"
His luck was used up by using the luck gloves for fishing, there was no need to hide this. Just now he even thought of using the luck gloves to exchange for the other party's information.
Now that transactions can be concluded without gloves and only with relevant information, there is naturally no reason to refuse.
But to be on the safe side, he still made the request.
"Of course you can, but you need to tell me the information I want first. Otherwise, if you leave after I tell you, I won't be able to find you."
The peddler said indifferently, "Sure."
Without further ado, he glanced at Chen Lin's body and said, "You have been planted with the devil's seed by the Heavenly Devil and you don't even know it. In less than three years, the devil's seed will take root and sprout, and you will become the heir of the Heavenly Devil. Even the gods can't save you!"
"Demon?"
Chen Lin looked bewildered.
He has never come into contact with any demons, so how could he be planted with the demon seed
But if that were the case, it would explain why the starlight was targeting him.
The starlight was most likely created by the Forbidden Array, and the purpose of the Forbidden Array was to trap the Demon Pearl in this world or destroy it.
He knew this secret.
But he himself has practiced Buddhist techniques and is very sensitive to demonic energy. If there is an invasion of demonic thoughts, he should be able to sense it. Why doesn't he feel anything at all
And what was the reason for the abnormal growth of luck before
After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "How can you prove what you said?"
"Simple!"
The traveling merchant seemed to know that Chen Lin would question him, and a yellow bead appeared in his hand.
He just turned the bead gently, and a yellow light shot out from the bead and hit Chen Lin.
Then Chen Lin discovered that there was a projection of himself reflected by the yellow light, and in the projected self, there was an imperceptible black dot in his sea of consciousness, like a heart, constantly contracting and expanding.
This thing exists in the sea of consciousness. Obviously, it is not stored in the physical body, but acts on the soul.
The traveling merchant put away the beads, and the projection disappeared.
Chen Lin immediately checked his sea of consciousness, but still found nothing.
“Humph, what kind of existence is the Heavenly Demon? If the demon seeds sown were noticed by someone of your level of cultivation, then even the immortals and gods would be afraid of them.”
The peddler snorted coldly, paused, and looked at the amulet on Chen Lin's chest again, and said: "But your demon seed is a bit weak. I guess there must be something wrong with the demon you sowed. There are still ways to suppress and eliminate demon seeds of this level."
"What is the solution?"
At this moment, Chen Lin had already believed what the other party said. Although he couldn't figure out when the demon seed was planted in him, he knew it was either in the Demon-Suppressing Temple or in the space of the seven-colored fan.
Only these two places may be related to the devil.
The traveling merchant heard Chen Lin's question but did not answer.
He said calmly, "What method is another deal. Normally, I only make one deal with anyone at a time, but I can make an exception for you. But before that, shouldn't you tell me the reason for the loss of your luck?"
