Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 505: A mysterious and powerful person

Views:

Chen Lin naturally wanted to leave this world.

I haven't been looking for information in this regard, mainly because I want to improve my soul level first.

So although he didn't completely believe what Princess Qinghua said, he was still somewhat moved.

After a moment of hesitation, he said, "Since even the Gintama masters can't enter that secret place, what's the point of it to me, so I'm sorry I can't accept the princess' invitation."

Seeing Princess Qinghua frowning, Chen Lin changed the subject and said, "But if Princess can help me get a four-armed circumambulator, so that I have the opportunity to be promoted to Gintama, then it is not impossible to consider it."

This is his real purpose.

No matter whether what the other person says is true or false, get the benefits first.

When the other party said that they couldn't get four arms to bypass the enemy, he didn't believe it, but he just didn't want to pay too high a price.

If he could take advantage of this opportunity to obtain the Four-Armed Circumvention and refine the fourth-level soul refining pill, he would be able to advance to the Gintama. By then, no one in the world would be able to do anything to him, and he could go to the secret place mentioned by the other party whenever he wanted.

Princess Qinghua did not refuse directly after hearing this.

In fact, she discovered Chen Lin's specialness from the moment she first saw him in Touguo, and that he was the best person to perform that secret technique.

It was just that she felt she was well prepared last time and could succeed without any secret techniques. She didn’t want to destroy her innocence, so she didn’t force it.

Now she had no way out, and after observing Chen Lin through her clone, she felt that he was a good person, so she no longer hesitated.

After a moment of silence, Princess Qinghua nodded and said, "There really is a Four-Armed Circumnavigation in the Imperial Palace Treasury. I can try to get it for you, but I can't guarantee whether I can get it."

After a pause, she continued, "In fact, the liquid in the Soul Refining Pool is made by using the Four Arms Circumnavigation. Moreover, after being purified, a lot of treasures beneficial to the soul are added. The effect is much better than using the Four Arms Circumnavigation directly, so you don't have to think about using this thing to advance to Gintama. If this thing can have such an effect, our royal family would have been full of Gintama long ago!"

Speaking of this topic, Chen Lin immediately became interested.

Although he mastered the soul refining pill, he knew very little about the silver soul. He learned from Niu Niu that the soul turning silver is a manifestation of advancement.

However, he has no idea how to advance, or what abilities and benefits he will get after advancement.

After organizing his words, Chen Lin cupped his hands and said, "To be honest, I am not from the Soul Country, so I don't know much about the Soul Advancement. Princess, can you explain it to me?"

Princess Qinghua glanced at Chen Lin.

He teased, "Mr. Lin's attitude changes all the time. When he doesn't need me, he calls me Mr. Lin, but when he needs me, he calls me again. This really broadens my horizons."

Although her words were sarcastic, she still needed Chen Lin after all, so she still explained.

"According to the secret book of the Imperial Palace, the souls of our Soul Country people are divided into three stages: ordinary souls, supernatural souls, and silver souls."

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows slightly.

The other party didn't even mention the Golden Soul!

It seems that the royal inheritance is not very advanced, or the upper limit of this world is Gintama. If this is the case, the possibility of the existence of eight-armed circumvention is very small.

Princess Qinghua continued, "The souls of ordinary souls are no different from those of people from other countries, they are just placed in soul capsules. As for the supernatural souls, as the name suggests, they are souls that have undergone changes after being endowed with supernatural powers by the gods."

"but!"

She looked out the window at the sky and said slowly, "The silver soul was not given by the gods. The method of advancement was left by a mysterious strong man, and that is the fusion of souls!"

Chen Lin was greatly surprised by the other party's words.

Everything here is related to the so-called gods. There are even situations beyond the gods. If this is the case, the mysterious strong man is most likely an outsider like him.

In addition, it can be speculated that even if the gods here really exist, something must have happened, otherwise it would be impossible to allow such an out-of-control thing to happen.

Princess Qinghua's voice became solemn.

"According to family secrets, there were eight people who followed the mysterious strongman thousands of years ago, and the ancestor of our Sima family was one of them. These eight people all obtained the secret art of soul fusion, and each of them has passed down countless branches, so this secret art is not unique to the royal family. But if you want to advance to the Gintama, you can only do it through the means of soul fusion, otherwise you will never succeed!"

Chen Lin looked thoughtful.

The recipe for the Soul Refining Pill clearly states that this pill can turn a person's soul into silver or even gold, so the other party's statement must be incorrect.

But the other party's words made him feel heavy-hearted, and he felt that he had been too optimistic before.

The 'Fourth-Level Soul Refining Pill' might not be able to reach the advanced level, and it is estimated that it must be the original Soul Refining Pill refined by the Eight-Armed Circumvention.

In this case, I really have to try the soul fusion method that the other party mentioned. After all, even the four-arm circumnavigation is so rare here, and the eight-arm circumnavigation is simply impossible.

Of course, he has another means, which is his innate ability.

However, because the origin is too weak, if one wants to use innate abilities to change the results of soul advancement, one can only use strong luck techniques, and it is hard to say whether it will be useful.

"Thank you for your help, Princess. As I said before, as long as you can help me get the Four-Armed Circumvention Technique, I will consider practicing the secret technique with you. Otherwise, I will have to ask you to find someone else."

Chen Lin clasped his fists and thanked him.

After thinking for a while, he explained again, "The princess has also seen that my soul's qualitative change has not yet reached the critical point of advancement, so even if I merge my soul with the princess, it is impossible for me to advance. Therefore, merging my soul is dispensable to me."

"but."

Chen Lin added: "If I have four arms to move around, maybe I can research more advanced elixirs. If there are any that can promote the advancement of the soul, it will be of great help to the princess."

After the reasons and pros and cons were made clear, Chen Lin looked at Princess Qinghua, waiting for her answer.

Princess Qinghua was very straightforward and nodded, saying, "You are right. In that case, I will go to the palace immediately. You just wait for my news here!"

After saying that, he changed his clothes and went straight to the palace.

"Sir, Lvliu has no intention of monitoring you. I can't do anything about it."

Chen Lin returned to the private room arranged for him by Princess Qinghua. Lvliu followed him and explained with a wronged look on her face.

He sighed.

This soul-pulling technique is truly an evil magic. Not only can it take over the soul of another person at any time, but the person can still retain his or her sanity and survive independently with his or her own consciousness.

This is of course great for the caster, but for the person being cast the spell, it is simply a nightmare.

Unfortunately, although his Soul-Destroying Finger has the ability to remove soul imprints, it cannot help the other party. The other party is a servant of Princess Qinghua. It can be said that the whole person belongs to Princess Qinghua. Not to mention possessing the soul, even if he kills the other party, the other party can only suffer.

And even if he helped the other party, when he and Princess Qinghua came into conflict, the other party would still help Princess Qinghua.

What Princess Qinghua left on the other party was not only the soul seal, but also the thought seal. The soul seal can be removed, but the thought seal cannot be removed.

Chen Lin glanced at Lvliu and said expressionlessly, "After I leave here, the courtyard I lived in before will be given to you. There is a box of dimes under the bed in my room, which I will also give to you. If the princess unlocks your soul seal one day, you will have a place to live."

No matter what, he couldn't keep the other person with him, and doing this was already the most he could do.

Hearing Chen Lin's words, Lvliu looked gloomy and left the room silently.

Chen Lin did not practice either, but sat in the room concentrating on thinking.

The mysterious strong man mentioned by Princess Qinghua should be a cultivator without a doubt, and it is very likely that the recipe for the Soul Refining Pill was developed by him based on the circumnavigating beasts here.

Therefore, a passage to leave this world must exist.

There is also the magical power of soul-pulling.

Since Princess Qinghua obtained it from the magical power treasure box, it means that it is the exclusive magical power of this world, but it appeared in the hands of Ancestor Xuanyin. It is estimated that the mysterious strong man obtained it here and spread it to the outside world.

If this is the case, it means that the supernatural powers bestowed by the gods are not dangerous and can be mastered by cultivators through practice.

Chen Lin was somewhat moved.

He has been coveting the magical powers here for a long time, but he had never dared to try to obtain them before because he was worried about the side effects. If there are no side effects, this opportunity cannot be missed.

However, we still need to learn more, and it would be best if we can find some books about that mysterious and powerful person.

We will have to wait until he is promoted to Gintama.

Books containing secret information like this are either in the imperial palace or in large families. With his current status and strength, he cannot get them.

After thinking for a while, Chen Lin put away his thoughts, probed his spiritual sense into the storage bag, and began to count the auxiliary materials required for the fourth-level soul refining pill.

After counting, his brows furrowed slightly.

The other materials are fine and should be enough, but there is not much time sand left.

If you use it now, then if you need to refine the authentic Soul Refining Pill in the future, you will have to look for it again.

He had a feeling that the existence of the Time Snail in the Wuding Sea might be related to that mysterious powerful man. Otherwise, with such a low-level interface, there would be no creatures with time rules.

Therefore, once these time sands are used up, it may not be easy to find them again.

"I wonder if Qin Lingyu and the others will take the king-level Time Snail with them when they leave."

Chen Lin muttered.

Then don't think about it anymore. Let's talk about the future later. Now, let's take care of the present. Treasures are yours only after you use them. Otherwise, you can't say who to leave them for.

"Are you Lin Feiyu?"

Just when Chen Lin calmed down and was about to get up and leave the room, the door suddenly opened without wind, and then a figure appeared at the door!
