Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 438: Demon Monk

Chen Lin had also considered the situation that Luo Qinglan mentioned.

If the killing array could be activated at will, it should have appeared long ago.

However, in order to ensure safety, he still made a decision: "I plan to stay here temporarily. If Xingmang appears again, I can immediately enter the Demon Realm to hide. Xingmang doesn't like me. Although I have obtained this Demon Suppression Ring, I can't guarantee that I will not be attacked."

"Okay."

Luo Qinglan nodded. This method was indeed the safest.

"It just so happens that I have finished my retreat and have broken through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. I will stay here with you. If the starlight appears, I can also help you resist it."

Chen Lin refused immediately.

"No, it's too dangerous for you to be with me. I can handle it myself. There's no need to put you in danger."

The opponent can easily dissolve ordinary starlight, but the power of the starlight is too strong for him. If the sealing formation affects the whole house and also gives special attention to the opponent, it will be a tragedy.

Luo Qinglan didn't say anything, but his attitude was firm.

Just as Chen Lin was about to persuade them again, he saw two streams of light approaching from afar. He and Luo Qinglan immediately separated and went to meet them.

"Greetings, my Lords!"

The ones who came were Fairy Baihua and Lord Wanmeng, and Chen Lin greeted them together.

"No need to be so polite."

Fairy Baihua waved her hand, then looked Chen Lin up and down, and said in surprise: "Under such a strong star attack, you can still be intact, you are really a hidden talent!"

Master Wan Meng next to him did not say anything, but looked behind Chen Lin.

He was the one who gave Chen Lin the location of this node, so he knew why Chen Lin escaped. What surprised him was the hexagram of the wooden chicken that Chen Lin said.

The divination was so accurate that it could almost be said to be predicting the future, which made him very interested in the wooden chicken.

A killing formation appeared in the forbidden formation, which caused psychological trauma to him who had originally planned to break through the Spirit Transformation Stage and then force his way out of this world. If he could go find the wooden chicken to tell his fortune, he would feel much more confident.

After hearing what Fairy Baihua said, Chen Lin hurriedly explained, "You are joking, my lord. With my shallow cultivation, there is nothing I can hide. It was only thanks to the location of the Demon Realm node that Master Wan Meng gave me that I was lucky enough to save my life. Even so, I had to hide in the Demon Realm for three days before I recovered from my injuries."

"Oh? Is there a demon world node here?"

The Fairy of Flowers looked around in surprise, then her eyes fell on the node and she showed a look of sudden realization.

Chen Lin's heart moved.

This Fairy of Flowers is truly unfathomable. She can determine the location of a node with just a glance.

According to the information Luo Qinglan had learned, the other party had protected most of the cultivators who were going to participate in the stargazing formation on the nameless island with his own strength. Otherwise, the losses of the high-level cultivators would have been even more serious in this incident.

Although Luo Qinglan had a lot of contact with the other party and was well taken care of, he never knew the other party's true face, and the other party's identity and origin had always been a mystery.

Fairy Baihua came to the node, took a look and said, "If you don't have absolute confidence in a place like the Demon Realm, it's better not to go there."

It seemed as if he was talking to himself, and he didn't explain why.

Then he turned his head and looked at Chen Lin again and said, "It can be confirmed that this strange omen is the sealing formation clearing out unstable factors to ensure that the remnant of the demon will not escape from this world. Do you know what is abnormal about you that makes the formation pay so much attention to you?"

Chen Lin knew that the purpose of these two people coming was exactly this.

But he did not explain the situation, instead he said evasively: "I don't know the specific situation, but I suspect it may be due to the evil thoughts, or it may be caused by my abnormal luck."

Until now, he still hasn't figured out the reason for the abnormal increase in luck before. In fact, he also suspected that the reason why Xingmang hated him so much might be because of his identity as a time traveler, or because his luck was too strong.

After the seven stars were connected, there was only one ray of starlight in the first round, and it found him.

If it was just a demon seed, he shouldn't look for himself first, but should look for the remnant of the demon in the Demon Pearl. His demon seed was planted by the other party. It is totally unreasonable to look for his "clone" instead of the main body.

The Flower Fairy frowned and said nothing.

Seeing this, Chen Lin asked, "My Lords, I heard from my wife that there were four powerful stars in the last round. Do you know who the targets of the other three stars are except for the one on my side?"

The target of Xingmang must be related to the demons. By finding them, perhaps we can find out the reason why demons appear in our bodies.

Master Wan Meng and the other person shook their heads at the same time.

It was Fairy Baihua who spoke up again: "According to investigation, some sea monsters have sensed the aura of the Heavenly Demon in the depths of the Wuding Sea, so the two targets that fell on the Wuding Sea must be related to the Heavenly Demon, perhaps the Heavenly Demon Pearl!"

Then, she pondered, "As for the one that fell in the wild area, I suspect it has something to do with the legendary demon monk."

"Demon monk?"

Chen Lin now pays special attention whenever he hears information related to Buddhism.

Fairy Baihua nodded and said, "Legend has it that there is a demon monk in the wild area, his cultivation is very high, and he is likely to be in the realm of incarnation!"

"God Transformation Stage?"

This time, not only Chen Lin was surprised, but even Luo Qinglan and Master Wanmeng were also surprised.

Master Wan Meng asked in confusion, "Is this news accurate, Daoist Hundred Flowers? How come I have never heard of it?"

Luo Qinglan also followed suit and said, "Yes, Master Baihua, are there still powerful gods in this world? Could they be the cultivators left over from the upper world?"

Fairy Baihua shook her head and said, "No, this person broke through after the battle between gods and demons, but he was unable to break out of the forbidden formation. Instead, he was targeted by the spirit of the forbidden formation, so he has never dared to show up."

At this point, she looked at Master Wan Meng and said, "This person is the one who controls the Soul Devouring Buddha. I'm sure Fellow Daoist Wan Meng should know this."

“It’s him!”

Master Wan Meng showed a look of sudden realization.

His eyes sparkled as he said, "Now that you mention it, I have an impression of him. However, I have always thought that this person was also a cultivator left over from the upper realm. I didn't expect that he is a local god-transformation cultivator, and that he achieved a breakthrough after the great war between gods and demons. Doesn't that mean that local cultivators are not without hope of becoming god-transformation cultivators?"

He was planning to force his way to a promotion, and if he had any experience from the past, his confidence would have increased significantly.

Fairy Baihua sighed and said, "I thought so before, so I kept accumulating, hoping to break through the Spiritual Transformation Realm in one go, and then try to ascend. But now it seems that this forbidden formation is more powerful than I imagined. I'm afraid it's unlikely to ascend. Even if I succeed in breaking through by chance, I will have to hide in a corner like that demon monk and dare not show my head."

After a pause, she continued, "It's the same with the cultivators left over from the upper realms. They hid because they were afraid of the attack from the Sealing Array. They didn't dare to move before. Only after the will of heaven and earth weakened did they dare to use their clones to come out."

After hearing the conversation between the two, many of Chen Lin's doubts were answered.

Especially the Soul-Devouring Buddha. This thing tried to kill him twice, which always made him very confused. Was there someone watching him, or was it just a coincidence

Now it seems that coincidence is more likely, but it cannot be ruled out that it is because he practiced Buddhist techniques.

Thinking of this, he asked, "Master Baihua, do you know the origin of that demon monk? Is it possible that he is the heir of the Demon Suppression Temple?"

If the evil monk is from the Demon-Suppressing Temple, he has to be more careful, as he may be targeting him and want to get something from him.

"It should be."

The Fairy of Flowers gave an answer that Chen Lin did not want to hear.

She went on to explain, "Buddhist inheritance is very rare. There is no other inheritance in this world except the Demon-Suppressing Temple. According to the records in the classics, there was no Buddhist inheritance in this world before. The first one to appear was the Demon-Suppressing Temple in the Ancient Country of Hanhai."

Chen Lin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

He also discovered this suspicious point. He had been practicing for so many years and had been to many places, but apart from a few demon-suppressing temples, there were really no other Buddhist practitioners.

"Well, since you are fine, we won't delay here any longer. We need to go to other places to have a look. This incident has caused panic in the cultivation world. I am afraid that there will be unrest again."

After Fairy Baihua finished speaking, she left with Master Wanmeng.

Luo Qinglan took out a spirit boat, which after being enlarged was more than ten feet long, five or six feet wide, and had several floors. It was several times larger than his Mo Yin spirit boat.

In the following days, the two settled down on the spirit boat.

Chen Lin began to refine the soul embryo, while Luo Qinglan continued to consolidate his newly achieved breakthrough.

With their strength, there is basically no danger in this world that can threaten them, and they are not afraid even if strange spirits come.

However, after the catastrophe, there has been no news of any strange spirits appearing again, and no one knows why.

Time passes by little by little.

One month later.

Chen Lin looked at the vague energy body in front of him, and a look of deep joy appeared on his face.

This soul embryo was indeed difficult to refine. It took him three full months to complete three refining steps and finally refine it.

The next step is to use the technique of creating and concentrating the mind to make it grow and take shape, and eventually it will slowly grow stronger and form a second soul.

This process is also very long and cannot be successful overnight, but as long as it is initially formed, you can borrow some strength.

After integrating the energy ball into the green space between his eyebrows, Chen Lin began to nurture and refine it according to the method of the Creation Concentration Technique.

In the blink of an eye, several months passed.

What surprised Chen Lin was that for such a long time, there had been no strange signs of the seven stars being connected together, and he had not been hit again.

This made him feel a little relieved.

It should be true as speculated. Once the killing formation is activated once, the energy of the sealing formation will be greatly depleted, and it will take a period of time to recuperate before a second attack can be launched.

However, Chen Lin had no plans to leave.

He and Luo Qinglan lived very comfortably in their own world here, and he didn't need to worry about Qin Lingyu for the time being. With their cultivation levels, Xingmang would not find them.

As for whether there would be other dangers, in today's cultivation environment, no place is absolutely safe, and it is even more dangerous to be around him.

The key point is that he still does not have the ability to go to the northern world of immortal cultivation, so there is nothing he can do even if he is worried.
