Thirty years later.
Chen Lin sat in the secret room of the Qingyang Sect's master's residence, looking at the Suzaku Ling in front of him, his face full of worry.
During these thirty years, he tried countless ways to restore Luo Qinglan's residual soul, but failed. On the contrary, the little fish representing the other party in the picture of fate showed a tendency to fade. It was only because he input the energy from the Fire Phoenix's inner elixir into the Vermillion Bird Feather that the other party's demise was slowed down. Otherwise, it would have completely dissipated by now.
According to the current situation, if there is no solution, he estimates that Luo Qinglan will not survive more than a hundred years.
However, high-level energy that originated from the same source as the Divine Phoenix bloodline was not easy to find. To reach the level that could restore Luo Qinglan's remaining soul, one would need energy at the seventh level or above. He had searched everywhere but could not find any relevant information.
Moreover, this is the extinction of the original source, and his innate abilities are powerless to stop it, unless the power of the original source increases greatly and new changes occur.
With a sigh, Chen Lin put away the feather.
Not only did Luo Qinglan not recover, but there had been no news from Qin Lingyu and the others either, which made him feel like a failure as a husband.
During these thirty years, Fat Tiger has been guarding the Gambling Lake, and Xiaocao has also been there most of the time, but the cat-headed monster has never appeared.
As for relying on continuous exploration to find the pool scene, he has given up. It is simply unrealistic to find a needle in a haystack, and the scenes in the demon world are becoming more and more outrageous, so he dare not get involved easily.
Now, they can only hope that under the leadership of the Silver Fairy, they can successfully condense their Nascent Souls. Otherwise, not to mention Qin Lingyu, even Sun Caiyi’s life span will not last long.
As for Chen Qingying and the others, their life span had already reached the end.
After a moment of silence, Chen Lin collected his thoughts, took out a pill and swallowed it to refine it.
There is no point in thinking too much. Only when his cultivation level improves will he have greater ability to search.
After thirty years of practice, he has already advanced his cultivation to the Nascent Soul stage, and is now making the final consolidation, preparing to break through to the Spiritual Transformation stage.
This speed was unimaginable before, but after being refined by the skeleton old man, he used the power of the innate thunder pattern to achieve a thunder spirit body, and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. In addition, he had no worries about his state of mind when he started over, so his progress was extremely fast.
This was because he wanted to consolidate his foundation and didn't use any elixirs with serious side effects, otherwise it would have been even faster.
A month later, Chen Lin walked out of the secret room.
"Is the True Lord preparing for a promotion?"
Mu Xingchen sensed the change in Chen Lin's aura and immediately asked.
Chen Lin nodded and said, "I will be following the people of Liangyi City to Xuanyue Continent soon to attend the Blue Palace Master's Enlightenment Ceremony, so I plan to break through my cultivation before setting off. That will also help me find the treasure that can restore Qinglan's remaining soul."
He didn't know why Lan Ruxue waited so many years to hold this ceremony, but he had to go. On the one hand, it would be beneficial for him to establish a relationship with the other party, and on the other hand, he also wanted to ask for help from the other party to see if he could solve Luo Qinglan's predicament.
"Then I wish you success!"
Hearing Chen Lin's tone, Mu Xingchen knew that Chen Lin had absolute confidence and immediately congratulated him.
Chen Lin smiled and said, "I hope so. You have to work hard too. Don't focus all your attention on the sect. Just let the people below do the work. After all, we are just a small sect. Without a strong person in charge, we cannot expand our scale."
After all these years, the Qingyang Sect has grown to the same size as it was in the lower realm, but the ones with the highest cultivation are him and Mu Xingchen, so it is impossible to expand further.
This is despite the fact that they pay a large amount of spirit crystals to the Liang Yi Sect every year and have the protection of the Liang Yi Sect. Otherwise, any strong man who comes along could wipe out their entire clan.
In this upper realm where powerful people abound, it is still too difficult for a Nascent Soul cultivator to establish a sect.
Not to mention that they couldn't occupy a good position, even the disciples they recruited were the ones left after screening by others. The reason they could develop to this level was thanks to Mu Xingchen's reputation as the Grand Master of Alchemy. The sect's welfare was not bad, at least there was no shortage of Foundation Establishment Pills and Seven-Star Pills.
However, the other party was busy with work and had neglected his cultivation. He is still in the early Nascent Soul stage. If he delays any further, there will be no hope for him to become a Spiritual Transformation.
"Thank you for the reminder, Master. I'll make a note of it."
Mu Xingchen had no hope of being promoted to the God Transformation Realm. With his qualifications, achieving the Nascent Soul Realm was already a rare achievement, not to mention that the problem of body assimilation had never been solved, making it difficult to improve his cultivation.
Chen Lin knew what the other party was thinking. He pondered for a moment and said, "There will be a way to heal your body sooner or later. I contacted a subordinate from the Sanyu Ancient Country through Tingfengyi and asked him to find the tavern proprietress that Nan Mochu told me about. If she can be found, we can get a solution."
The person he contacted was Zhou Shiwu.
With the soul contract binding them, the other party cannot betray them and will definitely work hard. I just don't know if the two women will return to Baiyu City.
He asked Zhou Shiwu to wait in Baiyu City for twenty years. Regardless of whether he saw anyone or not, he should go to the Liangyi Sect branch in Disheng City and use the transmission channel of the Liangyi Disk to meet him. The time was almost up.
As for the qualification to use the Liangyi Disk, he purchased it through Nie Cangqiong, and he purchased it twice, one time for Zhou Shiwu to use, and the other time for him to go to Yingyue City where Yingyue Palace is located.
"Thank you for your concern, Master!"
Mu Xingchen expressed his gratitude. Although he was indifferent, if there was a hope of being promoted to a god, he would naturally try his best to fight for it.
Chen Lin nodded, stood up and left to prepare for the tribulation.
In fact, Yang Zishi could also help the other party purify himself, but the degree of assimilation of the other party was more serious than Luo Qinglan, and it would take a very long time to purify him. He could not ask Yang Zishi to delay his own practice to help the other party.
As his cultivation entered the Golden Core Stage, his spiritual roots were further purified, and his cultivation speed became very fast. With a large supply of elixirs, he has now reached the middle Golden Core Stage and is making every effort to sprint towards the late Golden Core Stage. Delaying time would mean delaying his path.
A few days later.
Cross the tribulation stage.
"Thank you, Brother Huang and Fairy Alan, for helping us with the raid!"
Chen Lin clasped his fists to Huang Liu and Alan, then flew onto the stage.
Huang Liu has now reached the peak of the early stage of Spirit Transformation and is about to break through to the middle stage. He has also mastered his innate spiritual arts, and the matter of opening up the realm of the primordial spirit is already on the agenda.
Alan has also been promoted to the God Transformation Realm, and after the other party was promoted to the God Transformation Realm, the power of the Red Dust Mind reached a new level, and almost embarrassed him several times.
Chen Lin had experienced the great calamity of incarnation once, and was familiar with it. The whole process was under control, so he had no psychological burden.
Especially since he had a thousand layers of armor, except for the last three-color thunder, which made him pay attention, all other thunders were directly absorbed into his body.
Most of it is used to increase the energy of the Thunder God Sword, and the rest is used to cleanse the body.
Of course, he still acted as if he was having a hard time, for the surrounding monks to see, but it was not as exaggerated as last time.
In the distance, a man and a woman stood on the mountainside, looking at the Tribulation Platform.
It was Ling Qianshan and Ling Qianxue.
"Brother, do you think he can survive the calamity?"
Ling Qianshan curled his lips and said, "This fellow loves to hide his incompetence. With his ability, it would be easy for him to rebuild and overcome the tribulation, but he pretends to be struggling and doesn't even feel tired."
After saying that, he looked at his sister warily and said, "Why are you so concerned about him? Let me tell you, this person must have some secrets. People like him are always in trouble. You should stay away from him."
"I don't care!"
Ling Qianxue glared at her brother, turned her head and stopped talking.
Ling Qianshan frowned and said earnestly: "I am doing this for your own good. You and I have a lot of secrets, so it's better not to get too close to others."
"knew."
Ling Qianxue's expression changed and she answered in a low voice.
Chen Lin took the last three-color thunder tribulation, and then sat quietly on the ground.
After a while, a powerful and strange aura emanated from his body, which resonated with the rules between heaven and earth. The spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles became violent, and was mixed with a strong force of thunder.
Arcs of lightning flashed nearby, causing the low-level monks watching to retreat in panic.
However, the formation on the Tribulation Platform was immediately activated, confining the fluctuations within the range of the Tribulation Platform.
"Congratulations to you fellow Daoist for your successful promotion and return to the Spiritual Transformation Realm!"
The person in charge of the tribulation platform was Xiao Chengsheng, the deacon elder of the Liangyi Sect from last time. He knew that this was Chen Lin's second tribulation and that he now had his own sect, so he did not invite him.
"Thank you, Manager Xiao. I will definitely visit you when I have time!"
After some polite exchanges, Chen Lin flew off the stage and was immediately surrounded by various forces, who all extended invitations to him.
But he politely declined them all.
After returning to the sect, there was another celebration and many familiar people were invited, which was considered a small promotion ceremony.
Originally, Chen Lin didn't want to be so high-profile, but considering that it would bring attention to the Qingyang Sect, he agreed to Mu Xingchen's request.
After seeing off all the people, Chen Lin returned to the practice room.
He checked his body again, disappointment in his eyes.
As he expected, his innate ability had been improved once in the last promotion, so there was no reaction this time.
If you want to improve again, you have to wait until you break through the realm of refining emptiness. That will be a long process and may not be achieved within hundreds of years.
Although Yang Zishi was able to purify the imprinted aura in the source of his talent, he did not master the method of extracting the source of his talent. This method was taboo, and even if it existed, no one dared to sell it openly. Moreover, whoever mastered this method, once the information was leaked, would become the public enemy of all gifted people and descendants of true spirits.
The Gu Shengjin family must have had it back then, but he and the Gu family were enemies, so it was even less likely that the other party would trade the secret technique to him.
He was a little hesitant about whether to learn such a secret technique. If he really learned it, and with Yang Zishi around, he was afraid that he would not be able to keep his bottom line and would not only extract the essence of the monsters, but also the essence of the cultivators.
So this thing is a double-edged sword, and if you are not careful you will fall into the evil path.
After thinking for a while, he shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
Then, he took out a statue.
