"It's hard to avoid misunderstandings since it took so long for Brother Chen to come out!"
As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Chen Lin saw Master Wan Meng standing there, speaking with a teasing tone.
He smiled and said, "I hope you can speak like this in front of Fairy Baihua."
"I wouldn't dare to do that."
Master Wan Meng shook his head repeatedly and said, "I am no match for Fairy Baihua now. Not only is her realm high, but her methods are also unpredictable. She once killed three late-stage Spiritualization cultivators together, and even escaped unscathed from a powerful cultivator in the early stage of Void Refinement. She is very famous in the Xiaoxuan Mountains."
Chen Lin was also surprised, but it was normal after thinking about it.
It can be concluded that Fairy Baihua is the reincarnation of a powerful being. The methods she possesses are beyond the comprehension of middle-level cultivators like them. Not to mention that she managed to escape unscathed from a cultivator in the early stage of refining emptiness, it would not be surprising even if she killed him in return.
"Why, Daoist Wan Meng is waiting for me here, but what's the matter?"
Chen Lin looked around and didn't see Jin Xingyun and Tan Tai Yunjin, so he asked.
Master Wan Meng nodded, "Let's explore the demon world. When will Fellow Daoist Chen start?"
“There’s no rush for this.”
Chen Lin waved his hand, and then said: "You can explore the Demon Realm at any time. The interface is about to merge, so it is better to improve your cultivation and strengthen your strength first to prepare for the dangers that may arise at that time."
He currently has a lot of things to do, one is to open up the soul realm, and the other is to explore the information of Silver Island. If he decides to stay in Zhongzhou City, he will also need to pick up Luo Qinglan, so time is very tight and he has no time to explore the Demon Realm.
Master Wan Meng pondered for a moment, looked at Chen Lin and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, what kind of danger do you think will occur when the interfaces merge?"
"I can't predict this, but based on the information I've received, I'm afraid even those below the Void Refining stage can't say it's safe."
"So, is there a possibility of interface crash?"
Chen Lin took a breath and said, "This possibility should not be great. After all, it was those super strong people who took the initiative to merge. If they were not sure, they would not do so. Once the interface of this level collapses, they will not be able to escape."
Then he looked at Master Wan Meng again and asked, "Why, did Daoist Fellow Wan Meng get some news?"
Master Wan Meng shook his head.
"I didn't get any news, but after the interface crashed, I still have a shadow in my heart."
After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "Fellow Daoist Chen, do you have a feeling that this interface seems to be imprisoned, just like when we were in the lower world."
"Why do you say that?"
Chen Lin looked at the other party in surprise.
He also felt that there was something wrong with this interface, but he did not feel imprisoned.
Master Wan Meng looked heavy-hearted and said, "This is just my feeling. I don't have any concrete information to prove it, but I have a hunch that the interface fusion will not be so smooth this time."
"So what you mean is that you want to enter the demon world to escape the disaster?"
Chen Lin began to understand why the other party was so eager to explore the demon world.
Master Wan Meng nodded and said, "I do have this idea, but the interface fusion will inevitably cause spatial turbulence. I am afraid that after entering the demon world, the original space node will collapse, and then I will not be able to get out."
After talking about his concerns, he continued, "So we need to find a scenario with multiple nodes that can lead to other interfaces. And this scenario must be safe enough. After all, interface integration cannot be completed in a day or two."
Chen Lin immediately thought of the scene of connecting to the Crystal Light Realm.
But he immediately denied it.
That scene is indeed safe, and one can enter the Crystal Light Realm for refuge, but the Crystal Light Realm is not suitable for cultivators to practice. If one is trapped inside and unable to leave, one will only die of old age in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
"So you've got the right scenario?"
Chen Lin was somewhat tempted.
It would be great if we could rely on the Demon Realm to avoid the dangers brought by interface fusion.
Apart from anything else, the huge scarlet eye put a lot of pressure on him, and there was a high possibility that the other party would show up when the interface merged.
If this interface is really imprisoned, then it is most likely the work of the scarlet giant eye. The other party may be a powerful individual or a high-dimensional biological community.
Master Wan Meng nodded and said without hiding anything: "I have indeed mastered two scenes. At present, they are relatively safe. One of the scenes has two nodes, but this scene is somewhat dangerous, so I dare not go out to explore it easily. The other scene is relatively safe and has multiple nodes, but the other nodes are outside the first-level guide. I can see them but cannot pass through them."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lin remained silent and thoughtful.
The other party obviously wanted to explore that multiple node, so he needed his secondary guide to cooperate.
But the other party may not know that the rules of the demon world refer to the pass, not the person. As long as he does not have the second-level pass on him, he cannot stay at the location of the second-level pass, so he cannot bring the other party over.
After hesitating for a moment, he did not tell the other party about this.
At least I can't tell you now.
You must be on guard against others. If the other party knew this limitation, it is hard to say that he will not do something impulsive. Although the other party's cultivation is not as good as his, there is no need to be on guard all the time.
There is even a situation that must be guarded against, that is, the other party has already known this restriction and wants to seek his second-level pass, so he wants to lead him to the demon world.
In the real world, the opponent may not be his match, but that may not be the case in the demon world.
Thinking of this, Chen Lin shook his head and said, "Let's wait a little longer. The danger of the demon world cannot be judged based on appearance. I have some urgent matters to deal with. I'll deal with them first. Anyway, it will take about ten years for the interface to merge. There's still time."
Since you don't want to explain the limitations of the second-level guide, you can't explore it first, otherwise there is no way to explain it.
Seeing Chen Lin's firm attitude, Master Wan Meng could only helplessly say: "Okay, then I'll wait for your news."
As a veteran explorer of the demon world, he naturally knew how valuable the second-level pass was, so he did not ask to borrow it, and even if he did, Chen Lin would not agree.
As for killing people and stealing treasures.
This idea was suppressed as soon as it appeared. If it was in the lower world, he would still be tempted, but now the strength of both sides has changed, it would be good if the other party did not kill him for the treasure.
The two chatted for a while, and Chen Lin did not stay here, but went straight back to the inner city.
The safety of the outer city is not as good as that of the inner city. He is not sure whether Qiu Musheng will follow him, so even though the living cost in the inner city is very expensive, he still chooses the inner city.
He rented a cave and sent a communication talisman to the white pigeon, telling it the location.
Then he began to study the wine-making inheritance passed down to him by the Fairy of Flowers.
In fact, he had an unrealistic wish in his heart, which was to be promoted to the Refining Void Realm before the arrival of the Tianxuan Day. If he could achieve it, then with the ability of Refining Void masters to travel through the void, no matter how turbulent the space was, as long as it did not collapse, he could guarantee his safety.
Of course, this is basically impossible and is really just a fantasy, but he still decided to refine the Drunken God Brew in case of emergency.
One month later.
One day, the white dove came to the cave to meet him.
"Brother Chen, I'm leaving with the ancestors."
Bai Ge didn't say anything more and directly stated his purpose.
Chen Lin knew that the other party couldn't stay here forever, but he didn't expect him to leave so soon. He asked reluctantly, "Where are you going? Back to the Rainbow Realm?"
If the other party leaves, he will no longer have a relationship with the Mahayana Saint Lord, and his status in Zhongzhou City will no longer be special.
Moreover, the other party really regarded him as a close person, and he also felt that the other party had good character and could become friends.
Bai Ge was also a little reluctant and said: "No, we have to go to other continents to check the operation of the formation first, and then we will return to the Rainbow Continent. But if we want to meet again, we can only wait until the interface is integrated."
Chen Lin nodded.
Then he put away his thoughts and said, "Then you should be careful. However, with the Saint King here, I don't think he can hurt you. When the interface fusion is completed, I will go to your Rainbow Continent to take a look."
After hesitating for a moment, he added: "If possible, please help me keep an eye out for some people."
After saying that, he took out a jade slip, entered some information on it and handed it to the other party.
According to Fairy Baihua and others, although the ascension platform is in Zhongzhou City, due to the shattering of the interface, not all ascending monks are necessarily in Zhongzhou Continent. It is also possible that they landed in other places.
So he asked the other party to help keep an eye out for information about the Silver Fairy and others. If it wasn't the case on Silver Island, this would still be a hope.
In fact, he had the idea of asking the other party for help from the Holy Lord.
If the Holy Lord asked someone to help check the situation on Silver Island, it would be an easy thing to do.
Without reaching the Dao state, a Dao Yun strong person can go and come back quickly.
But after some indirect inquiry, he realized that Bai Ge's status was not as high as he had imagined, and he was not too close to the Holy King, so he did not cause trouble to the other party.
If he fails, it will easily displease the Holy Lord, who will then get rid of him.
"Okay, Brother Chen, I'll keep an eye on it."
Bai Ge looked at the jade slip and then put it away.
Then he took out a talisman with a flying sword mark on it, handed it to Chen Lin and said: "This is the sword talisman given to me by City Lord Wei. It can release a flying sword attack equivalent to the power of a ninth-level Dao Yun strongman. There is no use for me to keep it, so I'll give it to you for self-defense!"
Chen Lin was quite surprised.
This talisman is so precious!
A strike from the ninth level of Dao Yun was enough to kill an ordinary cultivator in the late stage of Refining Void, not to mention that it was made by Wei Duxing, whose sword intent was known to be the best in the world.
After pondering for a long time, he solemnly took the talisman in his hand.
"Okay, I'll accept it, but I don't have anything to give you right now, so I'll just keep this in mind for now."
Such a life-saving item was exactly what he needed right now, so he did not refuse.
Bai Ge smiled and said, "Brother Chen is my savior. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today. So don't be polite!"
