Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 717: Light ball

Views:

Chen Lin saw Lan Zhihan's clothes falling, with no expression on his face. Instead, he and Luo Qinglan pressed their palms on the immortal monument.

Then, the body trembled.

A strange energy enters the body, and the picture of destiny automatically appears in the mind.

Chen Lin immediately became alert.

The energy that can make the talent picture manifest by itself must be of the same origin as his talent attributes, just like the multi-eyed meatball.

He is not the only one who can activate the Immortal Monument, and his talents and abilities are varied. This shows that the energy contained in the Immortal Monument is divided into many kinds, and it can also allocate corresponding energy according to different talents. Such intelligence is probably difficult to achieve by relying solely on formations.

Either there is an extremely high-level spirit weapon, or someone is secretly controlling it.

In this case, it may not be as simple as meeting the requirements to obtain the inheritance.

As he was thinking, a fist-sized ball of light appeared in the picture space, with light flowing and changing inside.

“Huh!”

The sphere wandered around in the space, making a mechanical and questioning sound.

Chen Lin was shocked. This ball of light actually had consciousness!

The words "possessing another's body" instantly emerged.

Without saying a word, he immediately condensed the Blade of Destiny and slashed at the ball of light!

The light ball didn't seem to expect Chen Lin to counterattack. It paused slightly and failed to dodge completely. A piece of it was cut off by the Blade of Destiny, turning into a thumb-sized light ball that fell between the lines of destiny.

Seeing this, Chen Lin was certain that this ball of light didn't look that powerful, so it would be easy to deal with.

Then, he condensed the Blade of Destiny again and attacked the ball of light.

This time the ball of light was prepared and failed to hit.

However, if he fails to hit the target, he will not consume his luck and talent. Chen Lin continues to control the energy blade to chase the light ball.

For a moment, the entire screen space was filled with flashing knife lights, chasing the light ball everywhere.

However, the ball of light was also very flexible. Even though Chen Lin's Blade of Destiny was controlled by his mind, he was unable to hit the opponent again.

The two sides are in a stalemate.

"A fish off the hook, I'll remember you!"

The light ball circled around with Chen Lin for a while, but seemed to feel that it could not gain any advantage, so it made a mechanical sound again, then slowly faded and disappeared.

Immediately, the images in Chen Lin's sea of consciousness collapsed, and then he felt a pulling sensation, his body became lighter, and his vision returned to normal.

"My dear, are you alright?"

Luo Qinglan's figure appeared in front of him, with a look of concern on his face.

"It's okay. How are you?"

Chen Lin checked his body and asked back after seeing that there was nothing wrong.

"I'm fine too, and I've gained quite a bit of benefit."

Seeing that Chen Lin was not injured, Luo Qinglan's expression relaxed and he replied.

Chen Lin felt relieved, then looked around and found that he was still at the place before he was pulled into the immortal monument space, outside his cave.

Not only was the location exactly the same, but the surrounding scenery remained unchanged, and Mu Xingchen was also standing next to it.

This made him feel moved, and he looked at Mu Xingchen and asked, "How long have we been away?"

Mu Xingchen immediately replied: "Less than half an incense stick of time."

Chen Lin's eyes showed surprise. It seemed that the flow of time inside the immortal monument was not consistent with that in the outside world. They had stayed in the immortal monument for more than half an incense stick, but at least several hours.

Being able to change the flow of time is not something that ordinary treasures can do. It is very likely that the immortal stele is an immortal weapon.

It's a pity that such a treasure is beyond the reach of his level of cultivation. Otherwise, having a treasure that can change the speed of time would be of great use.

"Where is the immortal monument?"

Chen Lin put aside his unrealistic fantasies and looked towards the direction of the Forest of Ten Thousand Stele Tablets, but he did not see the shadow of the giant stele in the sky.

Mu Xingchen immediately replied, "It fell. Just after you all disappeared, the giant stele fell. It should still be in the Ten Thousand Stele Forest, but we don't know whether it has broken into pieces or is intact. Now the spatial fluctuations are still strong, and the communication talisman cannot be activated, so no news has been sent back."

Chen Lin nodded and was about to speak when he saw several figures flying over in uniform.

"They are from the law enforcement team. They have been here once before."

Mu Xingchen whispered.

"Anyone who returns from the Immortal Monument must report to the City Lord's Mansion and must not leave the city without permission!"

The figure landed in front of Chen Lin and the other two. The red-armored man in the lead glanced at Chen Lin and Luo Qinglan and said, "You two have just returned, right? Come with us. Don't worry, it's just a routine inquiry, we won't do anything to you!"

Chen Lin's face changed slightly. The Murong family was indeed as domineering as the legend said. This was already considered forced detention.

He thought quickly in his mind about how to respond.

The other party said it was a routine inquiry, but who knows what means he will use? According to his domineering style, he might even directly search your soul.

"No need, these two people are my people, I will handle them."

At this time, a majestic voice sounded in everyone's ears, but no one was seen.

But the voice was very familiar, it was Murong Feng.

The red-armored man's expression changed. He bowed from a distance towards the mountain where Murong Feng was and said respectfully, "Yes!" Then he led his men away.

Seeing this, Chen Lin exchanged a glance with Luo Qinglan, then said to Mu Xingchen, "Master Mu, Fellow Daoist Zhuge hasn't come out yet. You wait for him here. We'll go meet Senior Murong."

After saying that, he took Luo Qinglan and flew low towards the mountain where Murong Feng was.

The other party has already come forward. It is impossible to escape and you can only face it.

Chen Lin deliberately slowed down and asked through voice transmission about what Luo Qinglan had experienced. He felt that his situation was definitely not normal, so he needed to verify it so that he would know how to answer after seeing Murong Feng.

Luo Qinglan immediately said: "After I touched the immortal tablet, a ball of light appeared. That ball of light resonated with my bloodline origin, not only increasing my origin by a large amount, but also giving me a legacy called Phoenix Dancing in the Nine Heavens, a very powerful magical power. I feel that I have already approached the level of Taoism, and there is a possibility of transforming into Taoism."

After explaining, he continued, “In addition, the moment I received the inheritance, my blood was stimulated, as if I had transformed into a divine phoenix, and experienced a higher level of existence. I have great confidence in breaking through the Divine Transformation Realm.”

Chen Lin frowned tightly.

Obviously, the other party's experience should be normal. It is estimated that the other monks who came out alive were similar. As for the situation of those who died, it is unknown.

But although there were many benefits, he felt that something was not right. The ball of light that entered his innate picture once mentioned words like "fish that had escaped the hook" in astonishment, which made him think more.

"When that ball of light appeared, did you have the ability to resist?"

Chen Lin asked in a deep voice.

Luo Qinglan immediately sensed Chen Lin's abnormality and said, "I couldn't resist it, and I didn't have time to think about it. After the light ball appeared, it merged with my bloodline. What's wrong, husband? Is there any problem? Could it be that the light ball is related to the powerful resurrection seed?"

Without waiting for Chen Lin to answer, she continued, "I had the same concerns at the time and tried to drive away the light ball, but failed. In addition, I had a very intimate feeling towards the energy contained in the light ball, and it was difficult for me to resist it."

“I’m afraid it really has something to do with the powerful resurrection seed.”

Chen Lin spoke in a serious tone as he told Luo Qinglan about his experience.

Then he explained: "I told you that when I was used as an alchemy material by the old skeleton man, my innate origin was refined. At that time, the original main line of destiny disappeared, and a very weak main line was born. So I suspect that there was a powerful resurrection seed in the original main line, which was refined and dissipated."

After a pause, he continued, "This time, a ball of light also entered my sea of consciousness, but the ball of light was obviously very confused, as if it couldn't find something. I saw that something was wrong, so I used my innate magical power to injure it. When the ball of light left, it said, "I am a fish that has escaped the hook, and it will come back to find me again."

Hearing this, Luo Qinglan immediately said in a deep voice: "Then there is a real problem. My husband is the fish that has escaped the hook, and we are still on the hook. The saying that gifted people are the carriers of resurrection by the powerful must be true. This immortal tablet is only for those with gifts. I am afraid it is also a backup plan for those powerful people to resurrect."

"Well, that should be it."

Chen Lin nodded. "In this case, the people pulled into the Immortal Monument are all talented people related to those powerful beings. There should be many talented people who have not been pulled in. After all, it is impossible for all powerful beings of all rules to have their backup plans on this Immortal Monument."

At this point, he looked at Luo Qinglan and said, "What are you going to do? This matter is of great importance and must be resolved thoroughly. If there is really no other way, we will go to participate in the Hedao Ceremony of the Palace Master of Yingyue Palace and see if we can ask him for help."

Chen Lin gave suggestions.

The only powerful person he can contact now is Lan Ruxue. Ordinary Dao Yun strongmen are definitely not able to solve problems of this level. At least they have to reach the Dao He realm to have hope.

Luo Qinglan shook his head and said, "No, I still plan to use the method of Nirvana. The fire produced by Nirvana belongs to the innate fire, which should be able to remove the traces left by the great power. If it doesn't work, we can talk about it later."

After hearing this, Chen Lin stopped trying to persuade her. Luo Qinglan was not a weak person and would not change his decision easily. It could also be said that he was firm in his determination, so it was useless to persuade her.

Moreover, the other person knows his or her physical condition best. Although he and the other person are husband and wife, he cannot make decisions for the other person.

The only pity is that his Thor's Sword has thunder attributes, which is inconsistent with the opponent's attributes. Otherwise, he could use the innate power of the Thor's Sword to cleanse the opponent's body, and perhaps erase all traces of the powerful.

But no matter what, we must give it a try before the other party uses the method of Nirvana. However, there is no rush for this. It will not be too late to try it slowly after returning to Liangyi City.

After making the decision, Chen Lin no longer worried about this issue.

Then, the two of them exchanged some thoughts about what they would say after meeting Murong Feng, and then quickened their pace and arrived at Murong Feng's residence.
