Chen Lin was shocked by the speed at which Zhao Jiuzhou's cultivation improved.
When he met him three years ago, he had just entered the late Nascent Soul stage. In just three years, he had achieved the perfect Nascent Soul stage, which made him puzzled.
Compared with the other party, his cultivation speed is slower than a turtle.
"Your vision is still so sharp, yes, you did get some opportunities, but compared with your friendship with the Ye family, this opportunity is nothing."
After Zhao Jiuzhou finished speaking, he winked in Ye Luo's direction and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, please go over quickly and don't let the beauty wait anxiously."
Chen Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy still liked to tease people so much.
He clasped his fists and said, "Then I'll take my leave first. When I finish preaching, I'll send a message to Daoist Zhao and invite you to the best spiritual food pavilion in this city!"
"Haha, that's a deal!"
The two of them parted with a smile, and Chen Lin went to meet Ye Luo.
As soon as Chen Lin left, two cultivators came to Zhao Jiuzhou.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao is indeed very good at manipulating people. He has acquaintances in Baishuang City, but it seems that their cultivation is a little low. Otherwise, we could invite them to join our operation."
The person who spoke was a short-haired man, looking at Chen Lin's back.
Zhao Jiuzhou curled his lips and said, "Qian Lao San, you have misjudged him this time. Even though his cultivation is only at the early stage of Yuanying, he is not weak in other aspects. If we talk about his real combat power, even if he is at the ordinary early stage of Huashen, he may not be able to win for sure."
He knew that Chen Lin had reached the Gintama level, and he also knew a few things about Gintama. This kind of soul advancement, which was an improvement in the level of life, was much more difficult than the improvement of cultivation. If used well, it could play an unimaginable role in battle.
"oh?"
The short-haired man looked at the direction where Chen Lin disappeared in surprise and said, "In this case, why don't you invite him to join our operation, Brother Zhao? It's better to find an acquaintance than a stranger, right?"
Zhao Jiuzhou was somewhat tempted, but suddenly seemed to remember something and shook his head.
"This person's movements are probably restricted now, and his relationship with the Ye family is also a problem, so let's just forget about it!"
Hearing him say this, the short-haired man showed a surprised look, but didn't say anything more.
Chen Lin and the other person came to a pavilion on the mountainside, and then Ye Luo stood at the railing and looked down, taking in the dense crowds of people.
This mountain is the main peak. Except for the core members of the Ye family, no one else is allowed to go up the mountain, so it is very quiet.
Chen Lin also stood next to the other person and looked down, but he was thinking about other things in his mind.
First is the line of cause and effect.
In the past three years, there has been no change in this line of cause and effect, but it has not disappeared either. He cannot let this thing stay connected to him forever, so he decided to try to cut it off while the current environment is still stable.
The Karma Sword can only be used once, so if you want to cut the thread of karma, you must do it in one go.
He wanted to look around at this trade fair first to see if there was any treasure that could improve his luck. If there was, that would be great. If not, he would have to use his luck-enhancing technique. It was not safe to rely on the luck of the big lobster.
Using strong luck here is a good choice.
The Ye family needed him to refine pills for Ye Luo, and they regarded him as the turning point of their fate. If there was any danger caused by the backlash of luck, the Ye family could also help him resist it.
However, before taking action, he still needs to prepare well. It would be best if he could apply for an opportunity to leave the city so that he can escape quickly if the danger of backlash comes from inside the city.
At the very least, you have to send the grass out first.
As long as Xiaocao is alive, he can go find the resurrection scroll he has hidden. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens and he is resurrected in the resurrection scroll, no one will help him find his soul to restore. He can only stay lonely in the scroll until his energy is exhausted and his soul is scattered.
In addition to the thread of cause and effect, there are also demon seeds.
He had no sense of this thing at all, so at this trade fair, he wanted to buy a treasure that could detect the breath of the devil and check it out in detail.
"Friend Chen, do you think I still have a chance to see the next trade fair?"
Suddenly, Ye Luo's voice sounded faintly.
Chen Lin was silent.
This topic was too heavy and he didn't know how to answer.
The trade fair in Baishuang City is held once every ten years. If there is no change in the opponent's body, he should have died by then.
Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat depressing, Chen Lin thought for a moment and asked, "Why do you think you failed in building your foundation?"
The opponent's short lifespan and soul defects are only one aspect. The most important thing is that he is invaded by the interface force of that unknown interface, causing his body to be overloaded, so his vitality is consumed faster than normal people. If he did not have a sufficient supply of elixirs, his face would be covered with wrinkles by now.
But if the foundation can be successfully built, this drawback should be alleviated.
He could live for at least ten years, after all, building the foundation could increase his lifespan.
Ye Luo looked lonely.
“My body is connected to another world, and I have been attacked by the aura of another world since my mother’s womb, which has caused my body to mutate. As long as the spiritual power in my body exceeds the upper limit, it will dissipate inexplicably, and I cannot complete the liquefaction of the spiritual power.
In addition, my soul is inherently flawed and cannot undergo a qualitative change to give birth to a spiritual consciousness."
Chen Lin frowned when he heard this.
The other party couldn't complete any of the two important characteristics of foundation building.
With such a defect, even if the unorthodox method of building the foundation is used, it will not be successful. No matter whether it is a demon foundation or a Yin foundation, they will ultimately reach the same destination, which is to condense these two major characteristics.
"So what did your great grandfather say?"
Chen Lin continued to ask.
With the knowledge and means of the Ye family's ancestor, there should be a way to make up for it. If the other party has no way at all, then there is really no way to save the situation.
"My great grandfather said that in order to solve it, I first need to complete my soul and then cut off the connection between me and the other world, which is the dark child between my eyebrows. But in this way, I will no longer be special, and I have a feeling that I have merged with that other world. Once the connection is cut off, my soul will immediately fly away."
Ye Luo's voice was very calm, as if he had already become indifferent to life and death.
Then, she continued, "It was because of my innate ability that my mother died before she gave birth to me because she could not withstand the erosion of energy from the other world. In order to prevent me from dying young, my father went to a dangerous place to look for elixirs and was seriously injured. He died when I was very young. Although no one dared to say it in front of me, I also know that everyone in the clan called me a disaster star, and they also had a lot of complaints about the family wasting resources on me."
Chen Lin sighed secretly, not knowing how to persuade him.
The other person is so young and has to endure so much. It is difficult for her to pretend to be happy every day.
At this time, Ye Luo turned around and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, do you hate me?"
Chen Lin glanced at the other person and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be imprisoned here by the Ye family. You must hate me to death, right?"
Ye Luo spoke faintly, then hesitated for a moment and said, "After the sermon is over, I will go find Grandpa and ask him to let you go. I don't want to waste the family's resources anymore. With these resources, the family can train many strong people. There is no need to use them on a bottomless pit like me. I don't want to pursue the way of heaven anymore. I am an ominous person and I don't have such a fate."
Chen Lin was stunned for a moment.
Although he and the other party had frequent contact, they mostly talked about useless things. This was the first time that the other party opened his heart to him and told him these true feelings.
If the other party goes to find any of the Ye family's ancestors, it is possible that he can be released from house arrest. However, he does not plan to leave here now, as other places may not be as safe as here.
So he comforted her, "You don't have to be too pessimistic. The cultivation of a monk is a process of fighting against the heavens. You must learn to experience happiness from this process instead of treating it as a burden."
After a pause, he continued, "Since your grandfather is willing to spend so many resources to save you, it means you are worthy of being saved. Giving up halfway is irresponsible to yourself, your grandfather and your family. There is always a way out. There must be a way, but we just haven't found it yet."
Ye Luo looked into the distance and did not speak for a long time.
After a long while, she turned around, forced a smile, and said, "Thank you for comforting me. As long as you don't hate me, I really consider you a friend. They all said that you might be the one who can change my destiny as the Taoist said. I didn't believe it before, but now I do."
Chen Lin looked puzzled, "Why?"
Ye Luo smiled, blinked her big eyes, and said, "Because of your appearance, I have someone I can talk to, a friend I can talk to without any scruples, and I have experienced what it means to be happy from the heart. I feel that my destiny has been changed."
"winter!"
"winter!"
"winter!"
At this time, three melodious drum sounds rang out, and Chen Lin felt his sea of consciousness become clear, and his whole body became transparent.
"This is the awakening drum. My great-grandfather's sermon has begun. Fellow Daoist Chen, please listen carefully!"
Ye Luo put away his smile and sat casually on the bench in the pavilion.
Preaching was meaningless to her, and she couldn't practice normally. Besides, if she wanted to listen, she could always go to Grandpa Zu to listen. But she knew that this was a great opportunity for Chen Lin, so she didn't bother him.
Chen Lin also became serious, sat on the other side, concentrated and calmed himself down.
"I am Ye Qianxuan, and I welcome all of you to my White Frost City. Meeting is fate. I don't have anything to give you, so I will share some of my cultivation experience with you, hoping it will be helpful to you!"
A majestic voice sounded, not loud, but it penetrated deeply into the mind and could not be forgotten for a long time.
The other party did not say anything long-winded, and then began to talk about his experience in cultivation in a calm tone.
