Chen Lin couldn't move at all. He could only watch himself being carried by two pig-headed monsters, out of the right door and into a room.
There is an old pig-headed monster guarding the room, and inside is a small altar-like building.
"Put it up!"
The old pig-headed monster examined Chen Lin and spoke without any emotion.
Chen Lin was carried and placed on the altar.
He could see the whole process, but he had no power to resist and felt deeply powerless.
Not to mention resistance, he couldn't even restrain his spirit and repel it. No one knew what level of talisman the old Taoist used, it was extremely overbearing.
After placing Chen Lin on the altar, the old pig-headed monster took out a black token and inserted it into the socket on the side of the altar. The altar suddenly emitted a fluorescent light, and then Chen Lin disappeared.
The scene changed, and Chen Lin found himself in a yard, still on an altar.
"Hey, the tribute arrived so early this time. It seems that those stinking Taoist priests are quite obedient and don't have the rebellious intention as I heard."
Two tall female pig-headed monsters came up and, while talking, carried Chen Lin down from the altar and walked into the yard.
Chen Lin rolled his eyes to observe, while constantly stimulating his soul power, trying to resume movement.
"God, the tribute is here!"
After entering the inner courtyard, two female pig-headed monsters placed Chen Lin on a table similar to a dining table and spoke softly.
"Okay, got it."
A gentle voice sounded, coming from the front and side of Chen Lin.
Chen Lin turned his eyes upwards and saw a huge spotted pig!
This is a whole pig, not just a pig's head like others.
The pattern is black and white, and very symmetrical.
Moreover, the pig was actually standing upright, with its two hind paws supporting its body and its two front paws behind its back, shaking its head as it looked at a painting in front of it.
"Not bad, not bad. My painting skills have improved recently, and I am not far from the realm of painting living beings."
The flower pig looked at it for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and gave a self-evaluation.
"Congratulations to the Supreme God for his mastery of painting!"
Upon hearing this, the two female pig-headed monsters immediately congratulated loudly.
The Piglet, however, showed a speechless expression and said, "What a poorly written flattery! It is too pale and seriously inconsistent with the temperament of this God. I will punish you by drawing a hundred portraits!"
The two female pig-headed monsters immediately looked miserable, but dared not say anything.
"Okay, I'll stop here today. I'm a little hungry now, so I'll take a look at the tribute this time. These old Taoist priests are getting more and more perfunctory. It's time to give them a warning."
Huazhu put the paintbrush on the pen holder and walked to the dining table while talking.
"Hey, the tribute this time is of good quality. They have all given birth to golden souls. Have those old Taoist priests finally come to their senses?"
When Huazhu saw Chen Lin, he was immediately surprised and praised him, with excitement in his eyes.
Chen Lin's heart sank to the bottom.
This spotted pig is revered as a god by those pig-headed monsters, and they require offerings of tribute to it regularly. You can imagine how powerful it is.
Not to mention that he couldn't move, even if his real body was here, it would be difficult for him to shake the opponent in the slightest. There was no hope of escaping from the opponent.
His only hope now is that when the other party attacks him, Niu Niu's amulet will be automatically activated, so that he may be able to escape.
If the amulet is not activated, even Niu Niu can't do anything to the opponent, then he can only hope for the resurrection scroll.
As for the ruby's defense, it is meaningless to such a strong man.
At this moment, Chen Lin couldn't help but secretly feel fortunate that he didn't pull Xiao Cao in, otherwise no one would deal with the resurrection scroll. Even if he was resurrected inside, he didn't know how long it would take to be discovered, and no one would collect soul power for him to restore his remaining soul.
"It's not washed very cleanly. Such delicious food needs to be carefully prepared."
The spotted pig walked around the dining table and suddenly spoke.
"We'll take care of it right away!"
When the two female pig-headed monsters heard what Huazhu said, they immediately stepped forward, but were stopped by Huazhu.
"I am in a good mood today, so let me handle it myself. If you are clumsy and fail to handle it properly, the taste of your soul will deteriorate."
After saying that, it walked to the edge of the table and began to press on Chen Lin with its two front paws.
After an inspection, he seemed more satisfied and showed an intoxicated smile.
"Not bad, not bad, these old Taoist priests finally got a top-level soul body. This time, we will have three meals with one soul to satisfy our hunger!"
Huazhu drooled as he spoke, and then began to remove the excess things from Chen Lin's body.
Chen Lin's eyes were blazing with fire, and he kept trying to stimulate his soul power, wanting to give the opponent a fatal blow at close range.
But it was in vain.
No matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from the power of the talisman.
"Don't waste your energy. With your soul power, it is impossible to break through the control of the immobilization talisman."
The flower pig sensed Chen Lin's little action and sneered and spoke.
As he spoke, he took off Chen Lin's storage bag, rubies and other items one by one, then opened his robe and took out a bucket of milky white liquid!
But just as he was about to splash the liquid on Chen Lin, his eyes fell on the straw amulet around Chen Lin's neck.
"ah!"
Then there was a cry of surprise, and a bucket of liquid fell to the ground.
The flower pig grabbed the amulet, examined it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he flicked his sleeves at Chen Lin, and Chen Lin regained his freedom.
Then he waved at the two female pig-headed monsters next to him, and they disappeared at the same time.
"Tell me, who gave you this amulet?"
Huazhu interrogated Chen Lin in an inexplicable tone.
Chen Lin thought quickly in his mind, but in the end he didn't dare to repel and leave directly. Although the repulsion process was fast, it still took some time. With the opponent's means, he could be killed several times back and forth.
So he suppressed his restlessness, jumped down from the table, and said in a deep voice: "This is a gift from Her Royal Highness the Guardian Princess."
Chen Lin directly revealed the two titles of Guardian and Princess. Whichever title could make the other party afraid would bring him a huge turning point!
"It is indeed a gift from Her Royal Highness the Princess. Where is Her Royal Highness the Princess and how is she doing?"
There were two gleams of light in Huazhu's eyes as he nervously waited for Chen Lin's answer.
When Chen Lin heard the other party's question, his heart suddenly moved.
This attitude and tone are very similar to those of the wooden chicken in the Demon Temple in the Demon Realm and the secret guard Huang Xuan in the inn scene. They may be Niu Niu's former subordinates.
After thinking for a while, he said truthfully: "Her Royal Highness is not in danger of life for the time being, but her condition is not too good. I am constantly exploring in various scenes, just to improve my own strength and find a way to help the princess."
"Hahaha!"
“Okay, okay!”
The spotted pig laughed heartily, his excitement evident in every possible way.
"I didn't expect the princess to be alive. It's worth it for me to wait so long. It's great!"
The spotted pig was spinning around in excitement, and it took a while for it to calm down.
He looked at Chen Lin and said, "The demon world is full of dangers, and the princess has many enemies. It's better not to show your amulet easily."
The other party's words made Chen Lin's heart tremble.
He had actually ignored this situation before, and treated the amulet as a golden medal of immunity from death, which he would show whenever he encountered higher-level demon creatures.
Since Niu Niu was trapped, there must be an enemy. I have to be careful next time.
After confirming the amulet, Huazhu's attitude became kinder. With a move, he took the painting he had just drawn and handed it to Chen Lin.
"This is the sword fairy I drew. Even though it's not quite as good as it used to be, it still has the power of a sixth-level sword. I'll give it to you for self-defense!"
Then he explained, "But because my painting skills are still a little lacking, the sword fairy in this painting can only be activated three times. You have to use it sparingly."
Chen Lin was overjoyed and took it immediately.
"Thank God for the treasure!"
No matter what the relationship between Niu Niu and the other person is, as long as they give you treasures, you have to thank them.
"Haha, what's the name of the Supreme God? It's just a title to bluff those old Taoist priests. Since you can get the amulet of Her Royal Highness the Princess, you are one of us. No need to be polite."
The Pig waved his hand and continued, "I am bound here and can hardly protect myself. I even need to absorb the spirit to stay alive. I can't help you much. And it's best not to let outsiders know about my existence. Otherwise, if the princess's enemies find out, both you and I will be in danger. After you leave, I won't see you again!"
The other party's words gave Chen Lin an epiphany. The Demon Realm's Demon-Suppressing Temple was previously inaccessible because of the wooden chicken. The purpose was naturally to prevent Niu Niu's enemies from following the clues and coming to find him.
There is also the inn scene of the secret guard Huang Xuan, which is closed after seeing the amulet on him.
From this we can see how powerful Niu Niu’s enemies are!
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, please leave first. Remember to be careful and don't cause trouble for the princess."
Huazhu glanced at Chen Lin and ordered him to leave.
Chen Lin hesitated for a moment, but gritted his teeth and said, "Does the Supreme God have any extra road passes and magic coins? If I want to help the princess, I must continue to explore the demon world to increase my strength. These two things are very necessary."
Huazhu frowned and said, "I do have some magic coins. It doesn't make much difference if the road guide is not up to level 4. Although I have a level 4 road guide, I need it myself and can't give it to you. I do have two level 1 road guides, but how are you going to take them out?"
Chen Lin was delighted when he heard this and said, "I have a contracted creature that can help carry it."
After saying that, he thought about it and summoned Xiaocao and Fat Tiger in.
"Master, are you okay?"
Xiaocao saw that Chen Lin was in dishevel and had turned into a pig's head, so he immediately stepped forward to ask, while releasing the sword intent and looking at the flower pig vigilantly.
Fat Tiger also looked dazed and stood quietly beside him.
What surprised Chen Lin was that Fat Tiger turned into a pig head as soon as he came in, but Xiaocao did not, for some unknown reason.
"Such a strong sword will, there are already signs of entering the Dao, and there is also the aura of rules left by Her Royal Highness the Princess. It seems that you are really close to the princess."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lin suddenly realized that Xiaocao had not changed, which should be caused by the breath left by Niu Niu in the other's body.
"In that case, I'll give you the two first-level road passes. As for these magic coins, they're useless to me so I'll give them all to you!"
Huazhu took out a box and handed it to Chen Lin, then waved his hand again, and the two female pig-headed monsters appeared out of thin air. He took off the passes on the two and gave them to Xiaocao and Fat Tiger respectively.
With one final wave of their hands, Chen Lin and the other two disappeared at the same time.
