After some communication, Chen Lin joined Princess Qinghua's delegation.
In a flash, a month passed.
Chen Lin spent most of his time in the inn, only occasionally going out to visit the market where the supernatural beings lived.
With the attendant badge given by Princess Qinghua, he no longer needed to carry his head, but he did not put it away for the time being.
Because although he didn't need to lift his head, the breath of the life rope was still needed. After all, he told Princess Qinghua that he was a native of his country, not an alien.
Even the people of Soul Country have their lives tied to them.
What’s even more outrageous is that what’s separated from the body by the Soul People is actually the soul!
Every Soul Country member has an external soul bag connected to the body with a life rope, and the soul is stored inside the soul bag.
If the soul capsule is broken, the soul will be truly scattered, so the people of the Soul Country keep their soul capsules extremely secretive and never show them to the outside world.
The supernatural powers bestowed upon the people of Soul Country by the gods are all exerted by relying on the souls within their soul capsules.
Soul attacks have always been mysterious and powerful, and can even attack in groups. This is also the reason why the Soul Kingdom can suppress other countries and become the overlord of this world.
Chen Lin was amazed by this and developed a strong desire to study the people of Soul Country.
Of course, he couldn't touch the members of the delegation. It wouldn't be too late to study them after he arrived in Soul Country.
During this month, Chen Lin searched all the shops in the market town, but he did not find any other fragments of the Cold Moon Sword, let alone the Black Tortoise Shield, which made him very disappointed.
But since a piece of debris appeared, it means that these two things must have fallen into this world, and should be within the scope of Tou Country, so he changed his appearance and secretly bought a group of slaves. When he left Tou Country, he let these people disperse to all parts of the country to help him find them.
The day to welcome the spirit has finally arrived.
However, Chen Lin did not go to watch Princess Qinghua's soul-merging ceremony. Instead, he left the inn and came to a dilapidated house in disguise.
He bought this under a pseudonym and intended it to be used as a communication point for his servants in the future, but now he was using it for himself.
Today is an important day for welcoming the spirits. Everyone in this world must pray to the gods, and no one will come out, so he plans to take this opportunity to visit the demon world.
Such a long time has passed, even if the golden toad was a little unhappy about him fishing for the treasure chest, its emotions should have dissipated a little. And he urgently needs the lucky fish and the golden crab. After he is fully prepared, he can choose the right opportunity to try to cut the thread of cause and effect.
He will be uneasy if this problem is not solved.
As for his second hidden danger, the demon seed, there is no good way to deal with it for now, and he can only suppress it with the Demon Suppression Ring.
In addition, he also wanted to see if he could encounter the cat-headed monster and ask it whether Qin Lingyu and others had used the cat whisker. If they had, he would be able to understand some of the situation.
After getting ready, Chen Lin used the earth escape technique and came to a secret room underground.
Then he took out a few formation talismans and began to set them up.
This was done not only to prevent someone from accidentally breaking into the house, but also to prevent the "gods" from sensing him as an outsider.
Although he didn't know whether gods really existed, it was better to hide on the day when people in the world communicated with gods, so he simply hid in the demon world.
Although it can only project, it can also reduce the possibility of being sensed.
The time to welcome the spirit was at night. Chen Lin waited until dark before taking out all the foundation-building puppets to protect him, and then entered the gambling lake scene.
Then, Xiaocao was summoned in as well.
"Master, let me guard you outside, okay?"
As soon as Xiaocao came in, he immediately made a suggestion.
Chen Lin, however, shook his head while checking the situation, and said, "The energy in your body is special. If there really is a spirit, it is very likely to be sensed. It is not safe to stay outside."
If the gods who can control a world really pay attention to them, no matter who guards them, they can turn them into ashes with just a thought.
Hearing Chen Lin say this, Xiaocao immediately shut his mouth.
For her, Chen Lin’s safety is the most important thing, and she will do whatever is safe.
After taking a walk around the woods near Wanhua Valley and finding nothing unusual, Chen Lin came to the shore of Duyun Lake with his fishing rod.
To his surprise, there was actually a fisherman here at this time!
He took a look and was immediately surprised. The other person was a young man in brocade clothes. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be a human like him!
At this time, the young man in brocade clothes also turned his head and glanced at Chen Lin.
Then his eyes fell on Xiao Cao again, and then he said to Chen Lin: "You are the one who caught the fortune treasure chests here one after another, right?"
Chen Lin's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect that he would become so famous. This was not a good thing.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "There is no such thing as one after another. It's just a coincidence that I caught them twice." Then he immediately changed the subject and asked, "I wonder if you are a human cultivator?"
The young man raised an eyebrow.
"Humans? I guess so. We were once."
The other party's words made Chen Lin a little confused. What does it mean to have been in the past
But seeing that the other party seemed unwilling to say more, he did not ask any more questions. There were countless strange things in the world of cultivation, and it was not impossible for the other party to change from a human race to another race.
In order to prevent the other party from having the ability to steal other people's luck, Chen Lin chose a position at a farther distance and then threw the fishing rod out.
Soon, the shadow of the golden toad appeared.
"So it's you. I'm sorry, because the cost has increased, the fishing fee has increased to two magic coins per time, and the minimum penalty for failure is twenty magic coins."
Jin Chan's tone was no longer as flattering as before, but it wasn't too cold either, and he spoke in a businesslike manner.
Chen Lin's eyes flickered slightly, and without saying anything, he took out two magic coins and threw them to the other party.
The golden toad took a look, swallowed the magic coin and disappeared above the water.
After the other party left, Chen Lin began to feel uneasy.
I don’t know whether the price increase is aimed at him alone or at all anglers. If it is the latter, it’s not a big deal. But if it is only aimed at him, then it will be a bit troublesome.
He remembered that the old man from the Mountain and Sea Realm was first targeted by the Golden Toad, who raised the fishing fee, and then he was beheaded and his body thrown into the lake, resulting in no one being willing to come here for a long time.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the young man in brocade clothes, wondering whether he should go and ask.
At this moment, the fishing rod suddenly sank. He hurriedly put aside all distractions and lifted it up with force.
"Um?"
Chen Lin was stunned when he saw what was caught by the fishing rod.
With a puzzled look on his face, he brought the thing to the shore and examined it carefully to make sure he was not mistaken.
It turned out to be a storage bag!
I can actually fish out a storage bag in this gambling lake. What's going on
He felt very confused.
All along, whether it was him or other anglers, the types of fish and shrimp they caught might be different, but they were all living things. If it was dead stuff, there would only be one kind of luck treasure chest.
I've never seen anyone catch anything else.
Looking at the storage bag on the ground, Chen Lin did not move it, but fell into thought.
He strongly suspected that the storage bag belonged to the old man from the Mountain and Sea Realm. The other party's body was missing at this moment. He didn't know whether it sank to the bottom of the lake, was eaten by fish and shrimp, or was fished out by someone else.
If it really was the other party's storage bag, then there should be a lot of good things in it, but he couldn't be happy.
If the death of a fisherman can turn into a fishing item in the lake, it means that this is within the scope of the rules. In this way, the death of the old man from the Mountain and Sea Realm is not an accident. Although there is a reason for the Golden Toad to vent his anger, it is in line with the rules.
The consequence is that the danger level of this place has increased again!
"Why, you don't want it, or you can give it to me if you want it."
The voice of the man in brocade clothes sounded, Chen Lin looked up at him and put away the storage bag.
This guy is even more shameless than the Cat-Headed Monster. Although the Cat-Headed Monster covets the treasure chest, it is a fair trade after all, and the other party actually wants to take it for free.
The man in brocade clothes was not angry when he saw Chen Lin's actions, but slowly disappeared with the fish he caught.
This situation surprised Chen Lin for a moment. It turned out that the other party was projected in just like him.
The body that is projected into the demon world does not look much different from the real body, so it can only be judged by the energy fluctuations, behavior, and the way of entry and exit.
Because he didn't want to cause trouble, he didn't use his spiritual sense to detect the other person's body, so he didn't pay attention.
What he wanted to know was, if the other party came in via projection, would the landing point be the same as his, that grove.
For such a long time, he had never met other anglers in that grove and always regarded it as a safe zone. If the other party also settled there, he would have to be on guard next time he came in.
After the other party left, Chen Lin continued fishing.
This time my luck returned to normal. Without actively using the power of luck, I only caught some small fish and shrimps. But fortunately, I didn't catch any empty rods until the time was up, so I didn't have to accept any punishment.
Because he caught the storage bag on the first cast, Chen Lin did not actively use the power of luck again, so as not to make the golden toad feel annoyed again.
If the other party forced him to cheat, he would be helpless.
So in order to avoid the same fate as the old man from the Mountain and Sea Realm, Chen Lin decided that unless he caught nothing, he would no longer actively use the power of luck to fish in the future and wait until he could contact Niu Niu again.
The last cast brought in a big fish.
Calculating the time, the worship activities in the outside world should have ended. If he continued, he would have to pay two magic coins again. So Chen Lin took Xiaocao back to the real world.
After opening your eyes, check the situation immediately.
Seeing that the foundation-building puppets were all there and there was no sign that the formation had been disturbed, he felt relieved.
Then, Chen Lin turned his eyes to the storage bag in his hand.
