All three of them flew backwards, and Chen Lin even took out the Xuantian Seal.
The same went for the shadow that came in. After discovering Chen Lin and the other two, he retreated more than a hundred meters in the opposite direction, looking nervous.
But neither side left the bluestone street.
The statues outside are endless, and anyone with a little common sense would not touch them.
After the other party stood firm, Chen Lin discovered that it was actually a humanoid creature, but it was just a humanoid, and there was still a big difference between it and a standard human.
First of all, he is short, only about three feet tall, but his arms are incredibly long, enough to touch the ground. If it weren't for the lack of hair, he would look somewhat similar to an ape.
Judging from his face, the other person was probably in middle age, and quite handsome, with strong facial lines and a hint of majesty between his eyebrows.
In his hand he held a silver spear.
"Where you come from, where you are going!"
After waiting for a long time, both sides were still staring at each other. Chen Lin's eyes flashed, and he spoke in the manner of a creature from the demon world.
The short man opposite became noticeably more nervous.
It's really that the three people on Chen Lin's side look too much like creatures from the demon world. Xiaocao turned out to be one of them. The Fairy of Flowers was just an illusion with a petal on her head. Only Chen Lin was normal and asked a puzzling question.
The most important thing is that these three people treated the evil energy in this place as nothing.
"Where you come from, where you are going!"
Chen Lin's voice became higher and his tone became more sinister.
He was not worried that the other party would not understand. As long as they entered the demon world, they would be affected by the rules and could communicate regardless of language.
It's amazing and very useful.
"I am from Peach Blossom Island. I came here to avoid a powerful enemy and have nowhere else to go."
The short man swallowed, raised his spear slightly, and stared at Chen Lin without blinking, as if he was afraid that if he didn't answer the question correctly, Chen Lin, the demon creature, would suddenly attack.
Chen Lin secretly shook his head in his heart. It can be said that the other party has absolutely no experience in exploring the demon world. This answer is too pale.
But this is very beneficial to him, as he can just get a feel for the situation on the other party's interface.
But before he could ask, he saw the other party's face change and black energy began to surge from his body.
It actually started to become demonic!
Chen Lin's eyes flashed. Judging from the opponent's demonization speed, his strength was probably at the Spiritual Transformation stage. However, this was only a guess based on the cultivator's situation. The resistance of different races would definitely be different.
Under his gaze, the other party took out a palm-sized bone piece while being on guard. The bone piece emitted a pale fluorescent light and wrapped the other party's body.
However, the light did not completely isolate the evil spirit, it just slowed down the invasion.
Even so, Chen Lin was very surprised. The effect of this bone fragment was much stronger than the fairy stone, and only slightly weaker than the petals of the Fairy of Flowers.
"Where you come from, where you are going!"
After the other party had dealt with the demonization issue, Chen Lin raised his voice again and spoke sharply.
And he acted as if he would attack if the answer was wrong again.
The short man's face changed drastically, but he really didn't know how to answer. His eyes moved slowly downwards, trying to leave the node again.
Chen Lin looked at the other party's actions without any expression, but used his mind to give Xiaocao a signal.
Xiao Cao immediately floated into the air, exuding the aura of the devil. He stared at the short man and said coldly, "Didn't you hear what my master asked? Tell me your origins clearly. If you lie, I will kill you without mercy!"
Seeing this, the short man immediately stopped and dared not move an inch.
Although he was very confused about Chen Lin's purpose, the demonic aura on Xiaocao was real. He must be a demonic creature. With his strength, he could not fight against the rules of the demonic world.
He secretly groaned, he was like just escaping from the wolf's den and falling into the tiger's mouth. Why was his luck so bad that he encountered such a weird creature from the demon world as soon as he came in
Although depressed, the short man did not dare to delay.
After hesitating for a moment, he told the truth: "Your Excellency, I am Gou Yushan, from Taohua Island on the west side of Tianyuan Sea in the Spirit Demon Realm. This time I encountered a strong enemy at sea, so I hid here for refuge. If your Excellency does not like it, I will leave immediately."
The world of spirits and demons
Chen Lin's heart moved.
Judging from the name, this interface might actually be a place for spiritual practice, but I don’t know whether it is dominated by spirits or demons.
Just as he was thinking, the shadow of the Fairy of Flowers suddenly floated in front of him and said, "Very good, you didn't lie. Now cast a spell for me to see."
The short man showed doubt on his face, but after hesitating for a moment, he still cast a spell.
The spell turned into a giant black bird, but just as it took shape, it was corroded and annihilated by the thick demonic energy and turned into nothingness.
"Your Excellency, my strength is limited and I cannot cast spells here."
“That’s enough!”
The phantom of the Fairy of Flowers had flickering eyes and seemed a little excited, then she retreated behind Chen Lin.
Chen Lin also showed a look of surprise.
Although the spell that the other party just cast was fleeting, the spiritual power contained in the energy fluctuations could still be clearly sensed, which showed that the other party was cultivating spiritual power!
"What kind of world is the spirit and demon world? Are there spirits and demons? Do true spirits and true demons exist?"
Chen Lin asked again.
The short man's expression of suspicion became even stronger, and he frowned and replied, "There are both spirits and demons, divided into two camps, but there are no true spirits and true demons. The strongest is the seventh level."
After saying that, he looked at Chen Lin again.
His expression changed twice, and he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "My lord, you are not a creature from the demon world, right? Could it be that you are also an outsider like me?"
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows, "Why do you think so?"
This answer was basically equivalent to consent, and the short man let out a long sigh.
Although it cannot be said that there is no danger at all for practitioners from other realms, it is better than facing creatures from the demon world. At least they can communicate normally.
"Although you behave like a creature from the demon world, creatures from the demon world don't care about information from other planes."
After answering, he looked at Chen Lin with expectation and said, "I don't know which interface you came from, could you please tell me the node location? I am willing to pay you!"
"What's the reward? Tell me about it."
Chen Lin looked at the other party and did not refuse directly.
The short man cheered up. If he could enter another interface from other nodes, he wouldn't have to worry about being hunted down by his enemies after he returned. It wouldn't be too late to go back after this storm was over.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and took out a dagger.
"This is a seventh-grade spiritual treasure. If you tell me the location of the node, I will give it to you!"
Then he immediately added: "My soul mark is on the spiritual treasure. If I don't take it back, no one else can use it."
The implication was to warn Chen Lin not to have the intention of snatching.
Chen Lin took a look and showed no interest.
The so-called seventh-grade spiritual treasure, whose energy fluctuations have not reached the spiritual level, is of no use to him. However, judging from the other party's serious look, the treasures in the interface where the other party is located may be very scarce.
I don’t know if there are any high-level resources there that monks can use. If so, I could become an interface merchant.
"No need for that. A gentleman does not take away what others love. As long as you tell me the situation of your interface, the environment outside the node, and the information of your powerful enemy in detail, I will tell you the location of my node."
Such an interface is of great significance. Not only can the Fairy of Flowers use it, but he can use it as well. He must find out the truth.
The short man nodded hurriedly when he heard this.
He risked his life to get this magic treasure, and thus made a powerful enemy. If he could offset it with information, that would be great.
Then, he repeated all the key points of the information.
After listening to this, Chen Lin glanced at the Fairy of Flowers, and the joy on the Fairy's face was not concealed at all.
"No, sir, please tell me the location of your node. I can no longer resist the erosion of the evil spirit!"
The short man suddenly exclaimed and made a request to Chen Lin in an anxious tone.
Chen Lin glanced at the other party and reminded him: "I have something to tell you. We came here to avoid a powerful enemy. And that powerful enemy is very strong and may not have left yet."
He didn't want the other party to go out and die, and if the other party was caught after going out, it would expose their situation here.
The short man's face suddenly changed when he heard this.
Without bothering to blame Chen Lin for his deception, he jumped up, climbed to the top by stepping on the tree branches, then took out a pointed piece of bone, scratched it at the node, and ripples appeared at the node.
Chen Lin didn't move, just watched quietly.
All the information outside the node came from the other party's introduction. Although he was not lying under the influence of secret techniques, he still had to be on guard. If the other party went out first, he could use puppets to explore the way.
But the next moment, the three people including Chen Lin were stunned.
The short man jumped into the space ripples, but failed to pass through and was bounced back!
The space node failed!
This incident was of great significance. Chen Lin and the other short men fell to the ground, and immediately spread their soul wings and flew into the air. They came to the side of the node, took out a crow puppet from the storage bag and tried to send it into the node, but it was bounced back like the short man.
After thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and tried it himself, but was still unable to get in.
He returned to the ground with a frown on his face, lost in thought.
There are several possibilities for this situation. Either the node is one-way and can only enter but not exit, or the node has collapsed and the ripples are just an illusion.
There is another possibility, that is, this scene is restricted by rules and you cannot leave without completing the task!
Although there were no restrictions on leaving the scenes that the real body entered in the past, it does not mean that all scenes are the same. This scene is obviously much higher in level, and it is possible that the rules have changed.
And based on his feeling, this possibility is very high, because there seems to be a mysterious force at that node, which makes it impossible to enter.
But if that happens, it will be a big trouble!
